twilight-movie-poster We all know how chick-flick Twilight fared at the box office, which essentially guaranteed a gazillion sequels. But you would think they’d have the decency of not spending so much more money on the sequel? Well, no, in fact they are increasing the budget from the first movie’s $37 million to quite a lot more.

First victims of the increased budget are Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart – two unknowns – who are set to net a cool $12 million from New Moon, the upcoming sequel; they earned a meager $2 million in the original by comparison.

New Moon continues the story from the original, moving to various locales including Alaska and Italy; it also introduces werewolves into the franchise.
