Kristen Stewart in The Twilight Saga: New Moon, with  Robert Pattinson  (top) and Taylor Lautner  (bottom)

The Twilight Saga: New Moon, the Chris Weitz-directed Twilight sequel starring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, earned $72.7 million on its first day out, including  a record $26.3 million from midnight screenings, thus breaking the single day domestic box-office record previously held by Christopher Nolan&#8217;s The Dark Knight, starring Christian Bale and Heath Ledger, which made $67.2 million on its opening day last year.
According to reports, if The Twilight Saga: New Moon keeps it up it&#8217;ll break another   Dark Knight record: best opening weekend ever. (Though some analysts find that unlikely.) Last year, The Dark Knight earned  $158.4 [...]]]></description>

Nicole Kidman as Mrs. Coulter in The Golden Compass

Via Tim Drake&#8217;s &#34;U.S. Bishops Withdraw Controversial Movie Review&#34; in the National Catholic Register:
&#34;&#8217;The aggressively anti-religious, anti-Christian undercurrent in The Golden Compass is unmistakable and at times undisguised,&#8217; [Denver Archbishop Charles] Chaput wrote in a column in the Dec. 12 issue of the Denver Catholic Register. &#8216;The wicked Mrs. Coulter  alludes approvingly to a fictional version of the doctrine of original sin. When a warrior Ice Bear &#8212; one of the heroes of the story &#8212; breaks into the local Magisterium headquarters to take back the armor stolen from him, the exterior walls of the evil building are covered with Eastern Christian icons.

Cast: Hugh Grant, Toni Collette, Nicholas Hoult, Rachel Weisz
&#160;


&#160;
&#34;No man is an Island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the Continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were; any man&#8217;s death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee.&#34;
