The Twilight Saga: New Moon is still in first, but not by much. The Blind Side sneaked up and almost caught the vampire/werewolf love triangle by surprise. The New Moon drop off is large, but it’s still been able to gobble up more than $230 million over the Thanksgiving holiday. Both movies will actually have a chance to be on top of the box office next week when Everybody’s Fine, Brothers, and Armored might not have the draw as either of those.
