'Twilight' has bite at the boxoffice

November 23, 2008 Summit Entertainment's vampire film "Twilight" was a tweens-and-teens phenomenon during the weekend, sinking its teeth into an estimated $70.6 million in a full-blooded bow that quickly spurred plans for a sequel. The latest James Bond entry, "Quantum of Solace," from Sony and MGM, fell 59% over its sophomore session yet still registered $27.4 million to grab second place and shape a 10-day cume of $109.5 million. [...] Disney's animated feature "Bolt" seemed bolted to the starting blocks by Friday's intense preoccupation with "Twilight," and the family comedy debuted with just $27 million in third place.
