Studio execs should give plenty of thanks to female moviegoers: "Twilight: New Moon" and "The Blind Side" led the best-ever Thanksgiving weekend at the box office by drawing women and families into theaters, while male-centric newcomers "Old Dogs" and "Ninja Assassin" only earned so-so numbers.

"The Twilight Saga: New Moon" was back at the top of the domestic boxoffice Friday, following a one-day slip to second place on Thanksgiving. The second in a planned series of pics based on teen novels by Stephenie Meyer, "New Moon" rung up $17.9 million Friday for a cumulative boxoffice of $206.1 million through its first eight days in release.

“The Twilight Saga: New Moon” shrugged off three new wide releases to top the daily boxoffice rankings on Wednesday with $14.3 million in domestic boxoffice.
