new moon mania.

We almost forgot amongst the strikes and the beginning of holiday craziness...it's time for all Twi-hards to explode over the release of the next film in the Twilight saga, New Moon.

To say this movie will be big is a bit of an understatement. The pre-sales already broke records - several THOUSANDS of New Moon showtimes are sold out (mainly to buyers under 24 years old) and they've surpassed The Dark Knight and the Harry Potter franchise, and even Peter Jackson's legendary Lord of the Rings (we're just as surprised as you are).

The reviews from advanced screenings of the film say the obvious - the film isn't deep stuff, the acting is okay given the material they're given and dedicated (okay, obsessed) fans of the series will be getting exactly what they want (only less Robert Pattinson, but true fans already knew that because they've read the book 100 plus times).

We don't want to seem anti-Twilight - to each their own - but we're just warning those out there who might want to check it out, you might be a little confused and it might not be as entertaining for you as it will be for the hundreds of teenage girls sitting behind you.

However, for those of you who can't wait to get a piece of the action....we give you gratuitous pictures of the cast:
