New Moon made a little over $140 million this weekend, giving it the third-biggest opening weekend of all-time behind The Dark Knight ($158.3 million) and Spider-Man 3 ($151.1 million). On Friday, New Moon also set the record for the biggest single day opening with $72.7 million. AND it holds ANOTHER record for most advance ticket sales. My guess is that the massive amounts of extra-chunky panty pudding...

This weekend's horrible Saturday Night Live featured another takeoff on the Kathie Lee Gifford/Hoda Kotb hour of Today and the two hosts talked about it on their show. Hoda thought it was funny (and so did the crew) and that Kristen Wiig can sing. Kathie Lee didn't like it (well, she liked the part about Hoda). To be honest, I don't think this is the best sketch they've done about Hoda and Kathie Lee....
