This one was so obvious I can’t fathom no one actually thought of it before: make the synthetic blood from HBO’s hit show into a real product we can waste spend our money on! Yes, boys and girls of Bon Temps and beyond, it’s TRU BLOOD: THE THIRST QUENCHER! More »

Well what do you know, New Moon, the latest movie from the Twilight Saga, brought in $140.7 million this past weekend in the US Box Office and a total of nearly $260 million worldwide ($258.8). That’s the third best opening weekend in the history of the US box office, with The Dark Knight ($158 million) and Spider-Man 3 ($151 million), being the top 1 and 2.

Now, did anyone really expect it to not to do well? The moment I heard there was going to be a sequel, I pretty much knew this movie was going to do well. I remember having this conversation with a co-worker, about whether or not Ninja Assassin can match New Moon’s opening weekend.

Prior to the launch of SwanDiary, I had the opportunity to interview Twilight’s Justin Chon (human, Eric Yorkie) for Ningin.com, the awesome Asian pop culture site I manage. Justin, I’m happy to say is one of the coolest, sweetest people I’ve ever interviewed. It’s totally no surprise that he’s sent me an autographed headshot to give away to one lucky SwanDiary reader.

To celebrate the release of another vampire movie, it’s only fitting that the SwanDiary New Moon Special takes place. Each day this week, will feature one SwanDiary blog post on New Moon. More »
