Trailer numbers aren’t a clear indication of box office success, but Breaking Dawn - Part 2 shouldn’t have an issue making gobs of money when it hits theaters in November. A hefty sum, but a solid $20 million under the top grossing series entry, a slot owned by Twilight: Eclipse and its grand total of $300.5 million. Twilight fandom helping the latest (and final) movie’s trailer to raise the viewing bar is no surprise, but will it translate to success? The frenzy surrounding the original Breaking Dawn - Part 1 trailer took that movie to a domestic total of $281.3 million. According to Deadline, the trailer was a hit, as evidenced by the record-breaking number of downloads - over 7 million people imprinted on the minute and change of footage, blasting past the previous Yahoo record-holder: Breaking Dawn - Part 1. On Wednesday, the first full-length spot for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 was unleashed by Yahoo, making Twilight devotees antsy to get another glimpse of footage and eliciting groans from the non-fans who just want the damn thing to be over (but who are most likely obsessing over The Dark Knight Rises trailers themselves, so no shame Twihards). There’s nothing quite like the trailer for a franchise’s grand finale to get everyone on the Internet’s blood-pumping.
