Some 12 territories, including Brazil and Mexico, also screened "Eclipse" during midnight showings. Most markets will continue the film's international rollout today, (Kate: :-( Not Here) with additional bows July 1. Pic will launch day-and-date in 42 overseas markets.

Pic's midnight take reps a sizeable start Stateside over the Fourth of July weekend as its core aud of young femmes mostly are on summer vacation. "Eclipse" will go against the frame's other wide release Paramount's "The Last Airbender," which is expected to best serve males aged 25 and under.

Twilight Reaches The Senate - Kagan mum on Twilight debate 'Edward v. Jacob'

Twilight Reaches The Senate - Kagan mum on Twilight debate 'Edward v. Jacob'

Yes last nights "Eclipse" Debut was being talked about everywhere and I mean everywhere!



Washington, D.C. - It is the classic debate amongst Twilight fans: Edward or Jacob?

The third film in the Twilight saga, Eclipse, opened at midnight in theatres on Wednesday, and Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) decided to bring this bit of pop-culture into the Senate hearings concerning the nomination of Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court. The hearings have been going on since Monday, with Kagan answering questions throughout each day.

"I guess it means you missed the midnight debut of the third Twilight movie last night," Sen. Klobuchar said. "We did not miss it in our household, and it culminated in three 15-year-old girls sleeping over at 3 a.m."

"I didn't see that," Kagan said.

"I keep wanting to ask you about the famous case of Edward v. Jacob, or The Vampire v. The Werewolf," Sen. Klobuchar said, opening her questioning with a bit of lightheartedness.

"I wish you wouldn't," Kagan said with a laugh.

In the book and film series, the two characters -- Edward, a vampire played by Robert Pattinson, and Jacob, a werewolf played by Taylor Lautner -- battle for the love of the female lead, Bella.

As Kagan said in later testimony, a judge plays for neither team, but acts independently. She practices what she preaches, because she refused to commit to either Team Edward or Team Jacob. (Kate: I bet she was really Team Edward though)

The Twilight Saga - Eclipse Spoiler Thread

The time has come... Eclipse is finally out for all (or most) to see. The count down to the midnight showings is on.

We hope you all have a great time seeing the movie, but may we ask one thing? Please keep your comments, views, reviews, likes/dislikes and squee's to this post. We have visitors worldwide, some who sadly won't get to see Eclipse for some time (including our very own Kate) so please keep it spoiler free for them.

Robward thanks you with a smouldering stare!

Eclipse debuts on record number of screens!

Let the records begin! I think there are a couple of folks out there who might want to see this movie a few times over! Maybe? :-)

It remains to be seen how much cash The Twilight Saga: Eclipse takes in when it opens this week, but fans will have ample opportunity to catch it.

The movie is set to debut on a record 4,416 screens on Wednesday, beating the previous domestic release high of 4,380 (Iron Man 2).

There is no official word on the final number of theaters offering midnight showings.

Everyone is talking about whatever is going on between Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. Is that good for business?
Do you want the honest answer? I haven't even thought of it that way.

That's not the honest answer.

It really is. I honestly don't think of it in terms of business. It doesn't affect our core business at all. The thing I do think about is, Oh my God, I hope they stay together. Because it could be awkward on set in the next movie if they have a huge falling out. It's like, Wow, they have to portray this love story through two more movies. God, I hope they stay together; please stay together. That's what affects my day-to-day. (Kate: Ya, Ya I bet it's the first thing you think of when you wake up in the morning and the last thing you think of going to bed at night, NOT)

But you walk by newsstands and it's a publicist's dream: they are on every cover.
I don't feel it's out there anymore. Do people still report on it? If you look at people who have a stable personal life, the rags get tired of them. I think we're heading to that place where they are together and that's their life and we better find someone new to create drama out of.

There is an ele­phant in the room, metaphor­i­cally. He is a most hand­some, most famous, most per­plex­ing ele­phant. His name is Robert Pat­tin­son, a super­star among Twi-hards who fol­low his every breath­less, blood­less moment in the Twi­light series.

But “the room” is an Amer­i­can indie film called Remem­ber Me, beau­ti­fully crafted with an air of thought­ful melan­choly by direc­tor Allen Coul­ter. This is the story of a New York uni­ver­sity stu­dent estranged from his wealthy father, in trou­ble with cops, and intrigued by the daugh­ter of one detec­tive who has already smashed his face in dur­ing an alley fight. The film just debuted on DVD fol­low­ing its mod­est the­atri­cal run, timed to coin­cide with Friday’s release of The Twi­light Saga: Eclipse.

In Remem­ber Me, Pat­tin­son gets to play a real human being in a roman­tic drama pop­u­lated by other func­tion­ing humans. They are flawed, com­plex, inter­est­ing peo­ple played by Pierce Bros­nan, Chris Cooper, Lena Olin, won­der­ful child actress Ruby Jerins and Aus­tralian dis­cov­ery Emile de Ravin as the object of Pattinson’s burn­ing desire. No one drinks blood, although this saga is rife with tragedy.

The films also created three insanely popular movie stars: Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. Pattinson makes his debut on the Forbes Celebrity 100 this year in 50th place with $17 million in earnings. Most of that is from the Twilight films where he plays vampire Edward Cullen. But Pattinson also starred in the film Remember Me, which was a modest success at the box office, and he’ll appear in the film adaptation of Water for Elephants opposite Reese Witherspoon in 2011.

Kristen Stewart, who plays Bella Swan, also debuts on the list this year. Because Stewart has fewer non-Twilight projects than Pattinson (her only other recent work was in the tiny film The Runaways where she starred as Joan Jett) she earned $12 million between June 2009 and June 2010, ranking 66th on our list.

Both stars were paid relatively little for their initial work on the films but they have become indispensable to the Twilight franchise. That means they can both ask for pay raises for upcoming movies. The final book, Breaking Dawn, will be split into two films, which will give Stewart and Pattinson the opportunity to double their upfront pay for their final Twilight work.
