Movie Madness
The teen vampire film Twilight was amonstrous hit during the weekend, sinking its teeth into an estimated $70.6 million that quickly spurred plans for a sequel.
The latest James Bond entry, Quantum of Solace, fell 59% over its sophomore session yet still registered $27.4 million to grab second place and shape a 10-day cume of $109.5 million. But Disney’s animated feature Bolt didn’t live up to expectations, debuting with just $27 million in third place.
