New Moon Trailer viewed a whopping 5.8 million times in 24 hours

The New Moon trailer is seeing huge viewership numbers online, Nikki Finke reports–

Summit Entertainment has a count of 4.2 million views for the New Moon trailer from MySpace, and another 1.6 million from MTV.com, so that’s 5.8 million combined views in the first 24 hours from its two domestic online launch partners. By comparison, the 3rd (and last) trailer for Twilight received 3.2 million views in its first 48 hours on MySpace, piddling compared to viewership for the sequel’s trailer.

This number doesn’t even include all the versions uploaded to YouTube–including the one New Moon Movie added with the permission of Summit–so the actual number is even higher.
