Stop me if you've heard this one before: The Twilight Saga: Eclipse walked off with record plunder last night, collecting an estimated $30 million from more than 4,000 midnight screenings around the country.
That beats New Moon's seven-month-old record by nearly $4 million. Eclipse trumped another record by a smaller margin, with its $1 million IMAX haul beating the previous $959,000 record set by Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. The only question left: Can it beat The Dark Knight for best weekend ever? Lay your bet down below.
