More film fans have pre-booked tickets to New Moon than ordered advance seats for Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince or The Dark Knight, according to Fandango, the cinema booking website.
With three days to go before the sequel goes on general release in the US on Nov 20, it has already sold more advance seats than the original Twilight film in 2008.
"For many fans, it's the year's most anticipated film event," a Fandango spokesman told the Deadline Hollywood website.
"Ever since tickets went on sale in September, it's been among our top five weekly ticket-sellers, as New Moon has a strong pull on audiences.
"We're seeing a higher-than-usual number of tickets per transaction for this film, suggesting that moviegoers will show up en masse at theaters this weekend with their friends and family."
Thousands of fans flocked to see New Moon stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart at the film's Los Angeles premiere on Monday.
Pattinson, 23, who plays vampire Edward Cullen in this latest adaptation of the popular series, said this year's crowd of thousands of screaming fans was larger than last year's turnout.
"And it seems different to me because we have done this world tour in the last week and it has just been unbelievable in every single city," he said. "It is about 10 times bigger than any other city in the world."
