Twilight perfume: smells like money.

OF COURSE YOU DO!
There are plenty of logical forces at work here (Nordstrom, where many teenage girls happen to shop, is unleashing an entire New Moon-inspired clothing line.) But this vampire business is too hugely profitable to obey the laws of logic. Without further ado, I present the top three most inane tie-ins for The Twilight Saga: New Moon. (Know more? Do tell in the comments!!)

1) Burger King’s New Moon campaign offers up such delights as the “Fan Pack,” which, with the purchase of a “six-pack BK Burger Shots Value Meal” offers “collectible cards featuring stunning imagery from the film.” They’ll also be putting out a limited-edition New Moon version of their (famous?) cardboard crown. So what if vampires don’t…eat?

2) The Volvo commercial. So cringeworthy. Please enjoy at your own risk.

3) Twilight Barbies. (With realistic vacant-face Bella and sparkly-skin Edward!)

The Twilight Saga: New Moon opens Fri/20, like, everywhere.
