According to HollywoodReporter.com:
It was "Twilight" time at retail, again.
"The Twilight Saga: New Moon," the nearly $300 million-grossing sequel to last year's blockbuster teen vampire movie "Twilight," sold more than 4 million copies in its first weekend in stores to easily capture the top spot on the national DVD and Blu-ray Disc sales charts.
The sequel, released Friday night, even outsold the original, which moved 3.8 million units its first weekend in March 2009.
"Twilight" mania sent the original film back into the top 20 on the Nielsen VideoScan First Alert overall sales chart, where it came in at No. 16, as well as the Nielsen VideoScan Blu-ray Disc sales chart, where it debuted at No. 11.
The original "Twilight" went on to become the top-selling home entertainment release of 2009 with 9.2 million units sold, according to Summit Entertainment, the independent behind the franchise.
