I have to wonder how big this opening could have been if these stories were written even a *little* bit better and thus maybe had a broader appeal. I think of something like Harry Potter, which has a lot of die hard fans who've read the books, but also manages to attract more casual viewers who've never picked up one of the books. Twilight is so heavily geared toward the fangirls and seems to be very polarizing to most everyone else.

Well if it is polarizing to anyone they certainly aren't hurting for profit. The segment of the audience they are gearing this to are coming out in force, and going multiple times and buying all the merch. So if they are only focused on a certain audience they certainly know how to seperate them from their money.
