im not a fan of twilight either. but ive actually dug much deeper on this than you have & done some research/polling.

their audience isnt just girls pulling on moms to watch this flick. its lttle girls, teen girls, 20something girls, and grown women that have a perversion for lautner & pattison.  the shirtless lautner in the trailer has done wonders to spice up the interest for women to see this. 

also this isnt being sold and packaged as the same emo-filled teen angst fest that cat hardwicke is known for.  Part2 has a juiced up budget, legit visual efx, violence, action, werewolves.  something that could viably makes this a date movie and possibly attract a younger male audience. i will be taking my gf to see this opening weekend.  im interested to see if the improvements to this franchise are worth all the buzz.

its also been on the top 5 of presales reports for over a month now. 

has numerous tracking reports for it doing 90-105mil. 

90mil = 243adjusted

currently its opening price is 87.7

i dare you to short it. 

From my not so scientific analysis I do not believe The Twilight Saga: New Moon [TWLI2] is worth $237.61 evwarsh Nov 11, 08:36

Yes, you are missing something, this thing has massive presales and will have a huge OW {nm} clonewars Nov 11, 08:46

well This Is It had huge presales and it tanked (in HSX $$ - I know it made lots in the the real world). evwarsh Nov 11, 08:49

the comparison is not even close to valid. never underestimate the collective buying power of teenage girls. {nm} click999 Nov 11, 08:50

Well the last movie the HSX users seemed to overestimate the collective buying power of teenage girls - by a lot evwarsh Nov 11, 08:54

lol I realized after i posted it some people wouldnt get it - I was comparing it to the first twilight movie. evwarsh Nov 11, 09:07

how about transformers? Twilight on dvd/blu ray sold more copies over the first two weeks than Transformers 2 {nm} Moviesnob Nov 11, 09:12

Compare LOTR 1, to 2 to 3. Batman Begins to TDK, etc., Spider-Man 1 to 2, Pirates 1 to 2, MiyazakiFan Nov 11, 09:18

wow, glad adrenalin112 is keeping the forums classy 'round here. {nm} skamanfu Nov 11, 09:11

hsx needs to scribble him and ban the f word islander Nov 11, 09:30

hsx needs to provide an option to turn the filters off for those that dont have sand in the vaj. {nm} adrenalin112 Nov 11, 09:43

twilight's presales have been stronger than jacko's. {nm} adrenalin112 Nov 11, 08:59

if we went "just by numbers", records wouldnt be broken. "numbers" dont account for what iron man & TDK did. {nm} adrenalin112 Nov 11, 09:01

There are a group of women (25-40) in my office going to a midnight screening MiyazakiFan Nov 11, 09:20

thank you for an actual response - with numbers and logic. evwarsh Nov 11, 09:24

if you point was that the numbers could be wrong, then why did you repeatedly ask us to "show you numbers"? adrenalin112 Nov 11, 09:51

I wanted numbers mixed with reason evwarsh Nov 11, 10:06

PRESALES adrenalin112 Nov 11, 10:37

don't know why you've got to have others do your research for you - sounds like your mind is already made up. {nm} click999 Nov 11, 15:11
