Harry Potter just got pwned.
Summit Entertainment says "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" did over $26 million in midnight ticket sales on Thursday night, smashing the record set over the summer by "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince."
On top of that, the original "Twilight," which was re-released in movie theaters on Thursday night, did another $1.2 million in sales.
Friday morning ticket sales for "New Moon" have also been enormous, reportedly already totaling $14 million.
