While “Twilight” isn’t expected to break any Box Office records, or come close to the historic opening weekend of “The Dark Knight,” the film is continuing to build significant momentum in the advance ticketing realm.

-“The Dark Knight”
-“Spider-Man 3”
-“Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”
-“Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire”
