Every teenage girl on earth knows that tomorrow will be one of the best days of their life: the premire of Twilight: Breaking Dawn Pt. 1. The series has become more popular with every movie, and it seems like that's the way its gonna stick with these final two installments. Personally, I had enough of this series less than an hour into the first movie and can't stand all the hubbub about something this bad. But since I am not now nor will I ever be a teenage girl, my thoughts are irrelevant to just about everybody. With this series, you despise it or you bow down before it, and that's not totally fair. When compared to Harry Potter, which is common because of the likeness between them, there is more going on in HP rather than just a love story in Twilight. Battles, wars, friendship, courage, learning about the past, and looking into a brighter future was just the last book of Harry Potter, and that's more than what happens in the entire Twilight series. Just a love story VS. all of the above. I like my stories/fantasy movies to have more than one element or genre in them, and that's something you can't get from Twilight. Anyways, the film is opening in over 4,000 theaters this weekend and early estimates are putting it at number 1 no doubt with no less than $125 million dollars, which would be one of the biggest openings so far this year. Studio estimates are at 125 mil, but analysts are saying $140 million or slightly more. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II set a record this summer with $169.2 million, and that record is not entirely at stake, as most Twilight fans will see it opening day or opening weekend, and probably never see it again until DVD. And by the way, when Part 2 of Breaking Dawn opens next November, it might be a different story.
