The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 easily repeated in first place at the box office over Thanksgiving weekend, while The Muppets revived the long-dormant franchise with a strong second place debut. Arthur Christmas and Hugo weren’t quite as fortunate, though the true measure of their success will be determined over the next month.

Breaking Dawn added an estimated $62.3 million for the five-day weekend, which is a bit off from New Moon‘s $66.3 million over the same time period in 2009.
