NEW MOON sets new midnight record at $26.3 million (holy crap)

Well, no sooner do I post my review than we find out The Twilight Saga: New Moon had the biggest midnight opening of all time. The vampire love drama pulled in $26.3 million across the country at midnight last night. This blows away Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince's $22.2 million debut this summer and The Dark Knight, which made $18.5 million when it released last year. 

What's scarier: there are reports that it made almost $14 million this morning too. A huge $120-$130 million dollar opening weekend is now expected. Will it have the largest opening of all time? It could.
