You see, after only 12 days in theaters, "New Moon" has already become the sixth highest-grossing film of the year with $230.7 million, close on the heels of "Star Trek" ($257.7 million). "Up" and "The Hangover" both failed to cross the $300 million mark, while "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" just barely exceeded that milestone. The lone $400 million-plus movie of the year is "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen."
Even considering a 68% decline from one week to the next, if "New Moon" manages to cross the $400 million threshold, it will vault into the top 10. That would be an amazingly impressive performance, especially considering that "Twilight" currently sits at 104 on the all-time list.
