"The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2" brought in $2.7 million on its first night, giving the country a much-needed box office boost.
ROME – Italy’s box office got some much-needed good news after The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 had the most successful opening-day ticket sales of the year in Italy, with more than 327,000 tickets sold nationally for the film’s Wednesday rollout.
The film actually premiered in Italy a day earlier, at the International Rome Film Festival, where it sold out the festival’s largest venue. On Tuesday night -- lasting until Wednesday morning -- the Rome festival also hosted a special Twilight Saga marathon, in which the first four installments of the film screened back-to-back.
It all helped set up a strong box office performance. The film pulled in more than €2.2 million ($2.8 million) after opening on 885 screens nationally. The 327,000 tickets sold on opening night beat the previous high for the year set by The Avengers, which sold 309,000 tickets on its opening night back in April. It wasn't immediately clear if the final Twilight film also beat Avengers in terms of first-day box office revenue.
The film earned more than The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1, which took in €1.7 million ($2.1 million) last year.

The poor thing needs something good in his life these days, HAPPY FOR YOU BB
When Twilight comes to an end:
tho it is nothing on my full-on ugly crying when the last book came out
Heckle - heckle like your life depends on it ( because your sanity will at the very least. )
lol Twihards are a sad and desperate species if they think Flopping Dawn maybe beating the Avengers in one European box office is news
well, they're a sad and desperate species anyway bc of this crap they choose to cream themselves over, but consider that just the cherry added to the 'let the world laugh at you' cake.
