The sun has set for “The Twilight Saga” with another blockbuster opening weekend.

The fifth and final film in the franchise, “Breaking Dawn — Part 2″ sucked up $141.3 million domestically over opening weekend and $199.6 million more overseas for a worldwide debut of $340.9 million, according to the Associated Press.

The best and the worst of Bond 007 has had his ups and downs on the big screen.

As RollingStone.com reports, it was a surprise hit from the then-largely unknown band.

As the Associated Press reports, the cinematic saga of 007 began when two upstart producers, Canadian Harry Saltzman and American Albert “Cubby” Broccoli, acquired the rights to a series of novels by Ian Fleming, a former World War II intelligence officer who had created Bond as sort of a fantasy alter-ego.

Adele has confirmed she has co-written and performed the theme to the upcoming James Bond movie “Skyfall,” reports the Associated Press.

“There’s a lot of instant spotlight and pressure when it comes to a Bond song,” she is quoted as saying.

Legends of the fall Just based on pedigree and buzz, autumn’s offerings look stellar, including Paul Thomas Anderson’s “The Master,” Disney’s “Wreck-It Ralph,” the 50th anniversary James Bond entry, Rian Johnson’s “Looper” and the long-awaited adaptation of David Mitchell’s “Cloud Atlas.”

Summer normally deserves its reputation for offering explosive lightweight fare, but the hot months of 2012 produced some of the best films of the year, including “The Dark Knight Returns,” “Beasts of the Southern Wild” and “The Avengers.” The period typically known as “awards season,” those last months leading up to the holidays and the cutoff date for Oscars, are generally packed with more thoughtful fare, but the best films of summer set a high bar for the prestige acts coming in the fall.

After grandly escorting Queen Elizabeth II to the opening ceremony of the London Olympics last Friday, Daniel Craig’s James Bond is back with the drop of the international and U.S. trailers for his latest cinematic outing as 007, “Skyfall.”

In “Skyfall,” Bond’s loyalty to M (Judi Dench) is tested as her past comes back to haunt her.

After all the questions and delays and interruptions, it looks like we really are going to get a 23rd James Bond movie.

Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes, who is taking the helm in the latest installment of the venerable franchise, has posted his first video blog from the set of “Skyfall,” where shooting is now apparently underway.

Producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli have announced that the 23rd James Bond adventure, titled “Skyfall,” will go into production Monday.

The film, from Albert R. Broccoli’s Eon Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, and Sony Pictures Entertainment, will be directed by Academy Award winner Sam Mendes and stars Daniel Craig, who returns for his third film as James Bond 007.
