"New Moon" stars Taylor Lautner as werewolf Jacob and Kristen Stewart as teenage human Bella.

The new installment of the “Twlight” series, “New Moon” took in a whopping $140.7 million domestically and $258.8 million worldwide, making it the third largest opening weekend of all time. But, it wasn’t just the Twilight series that did so well this weekend. Sandra Bullock’s new film, “The Blind Side” took in $34.5 million, much larger than expected. What does this say about the success of films in the coming weeks? Will the box office continue to be big this holiday season? Larry finds out.
