woohoo.gif We're on to a new thread. grin.gif If you missed the last few pages of the last thread, you can find the old thread Here.


Awww, here are some really cute Kristen & Taylor pix. Sorry I couldn’t post the pix… look.gif Does anyone know how to post Twitter tinypix? MB doesn’t seem to like them.

Oooh, if have extra $ you want to spend, you can buy a complete set of our twi-stars:

It must be so weird to have a doll made in your likeness…


Or, if you don’t want the dolls, how about life-size cardboard figures? They won't post (another "tiny pic), but you can see them Here. The cardboards are well worth the "click."

Oh my, you know twilight has hit the really big time when Nordstrom’s will be selling New Moon merchandise. You can see some of the items they will have on sale Here.


And if you’re a fan of the Hillywood Shows parody of twilight, here’s a link to their BTS vid of the filming of their parody.

I saw this on the internet and had to "borrow" it: ^,..,^ …I may just add it to my siggy line.

Start saving your pennies and dimes....Here's another way to spend your money:

"Us Weekly is reportedly busy working on another bookazine – hard cover magazine – devoted to the 'Twilight Saga' and its cast since the last one was so successful.

A source at the magazine tells Gossip Cop the 120 or so page book, which will come out before the film’s eagerly awaited release on November 20, will be on sale at Barnes & Noble and in certain supermarkets for $10.

So what’s in the New Moon'-timed bookazine? The staffer says there will be great portraits shots of all the stars, including Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner, a plot summary of “New Moon,” dish from the set of “Eclipse,” a section on what the stars “were like in high school,” 'the A-Z of Robert Pattinson' and others, and yes, the book will delve into the hot stars’ love lives.

Rival People magazine is also hard at work on a special edition to similarly coincide with the release of 'New Moon.'"

I have a treat for y'all. While Rob and the crew were waiting to film his playing Bella's lullaby, he started to play this to pass to time:

Youtube Video -> Original Video



Also, Cam Gigandet & True Blood's Stephen Moyer are going to be in another vampire movie:

From ET:

“Stephen Moyer of HBO’s “True Blood” and Cam Gigandet of ‘Twilight’ have taken on roles in the thriller movie ‘Priest’ but this time Moyer plays the mortal, Variety reports.

Based on the TokyoPop comic book, the movie is set in a turbulent time period, ravaged by wars between vampires and humans. The film follows a priest (Paul Bettany) who rebels against the church to avenge a group of murderous vampires who have kidnapped his niece. Gigandet’s character helps the priest because he is in love with his niece, while Moyer plays the brother of the clergyman.”

And, a pic for y'all...

From E! Online ...

Think we could do a Best of Summer 2009 roundup and not include Twilight? Of course not. Twilight coverage forever! (Or at least a few more years.)

So yeah, pretty crazy summer, right? And there wasn't even a new movie out. Plus, everyone was on a break between the filming of New Moon and Eclipse. What was it then that kept everyone's Twilight obsession going?

Well, we have a few theories, most center around one thing: Robsten (obvi). Let's start with the almost kiss at the MTV Movie Awards that kicked off our summer and then the there was last week's maybe kiss to end it. Thanks guys, great timing.

Those near kisses were also bookends to the other big Robsten drama: the bicoastal separation. Were they sad being apart? Could Rob handle the crazy fans? Was he hooking up with his costar Emilie de Ravin? Ugh, K.Stew's Joan Jett hair? You know, just the normal stuff that any long-distance relationship that might not even be real has to deal with.

Other than that, we had not one but two big trailer premieres, Taylor Lautner's endless chatter about the gym and how New Moon is so complicated and also that huge Victoria casting change up kicking Rachelle Lefevre to the curb for Bryce Dallas Howard. (They both have red hair, no one will ever know the difference!)

So that's just some of the dramz keeping all the Twilight excitement going. Now is the time we ask you to vote on your favorite or point out what we missed.

I can't hardly wait to see this movie, totally a Cam fan here!! ( & Taylor fan too tongue.gif tongue.gif Thanks Tek. smile.gif

Those dolls look werid, really don't look like them, but I'm interested in that book for 10 bucks. who do I send the US funds for a copy.? Oh I forgot, the sirts & necklaces look nice, but I'm dying to see what the wolf shirts looks like, as you can tell by my avi, I'm a "wolf freak" lol.gif
Tekgirl
HMQ, hopefully, you'll get that magazine-book in Canada, too. The magazine is a pretty popular one and I bet you'll be able to find it at newsstands that carry international/US magazines. If you can't find it, let me know.

Nosee, thanks for that E! Online blog. It was a fun read.

Did anyone post about the twilight graphic novel that will be coming out? Judging from this illustration from the GN, I am not very excited about the project. (But then again, I'm not an enormous fan of manga.) You can see the illustration Here.

The July 17th issue of EW contained finished illustrations of Edward, Bella, and Jacob.

Here's the info from the Entertainment Weekly website:

"For those of you who can’t get enough Edward and Bella, EW can announce — exclusively — that Yen Press will be publishing Twilight in graphic-novel form, publication date still to be determined. Though Korean artist Young Kim is creating the art, Meyer herself is deeply immersed in the project, reviewing every panel.

Take a close look at the biology-class sketch we’ve obtained (that’s an empty dialogue bubble between their heads, if you’re wondering). What’s interesting to me is that it doesn’t look simply like an artist’s rendering of Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson. In fact, the characters seem to be an amalgam of Meyer’s literary imagination and the actors’ actual looks. The description of Edward from biology class: “His dazzling face was friendly; open, a slight smile on his flawless lips. But his eyes were cautious.” And Bella: “I was ivory-skinned …. I had always been slender, but soft somehow, obviously not an athlete…” To me, this graphic-novel Bella seems much closer to me to Meyer’s book than to Stewart’s sultry portrayal. The Edward shown is closer to Pattinson, but not a real duplicate; there’s something very winning in the sketch that I don’t see in Pattinson’s all-too-perfect tousled bronze locks and piercing eyes."

One other thing I've forgotten to mention ... I was in FYE last week ... they've got a 3D twilight poster ... about 24x36 ... the lenticular type ... no 3D glasses required look.gif

I've got one but it's only 11x17 ... I think ... look.gif

hi kids!

saw pix of the vamps, but where's Felix n Demetri?

Nosee, I'm afraid to make a field trip to FYE to check out their NM/twilight merchandise. I might buy something.....

Di, this is for you. It's an interview with Taylor. The interview was posted on several twilight fan sites:


Fansite Visit April 2009

His Golden Eyes, Imprint/Twilight Source, Twilight Lexicon, Twilighters Anonymous, Twilight Moms, Twilight Series Theories.

Transcribed by Kara from Twilight Moms.
Q: So is the wig better this year?
Taylor: You know I got to be honest it is.

Q: It looks better, much more natural.
Taylor: Thank you I think it does looks pretty natural. It’s not as itchy. It’s not in my way. We’ve got a good team. Yeah everybody’s really awesome on the set

Q: Did you actually get a tattoo??
Taylor: I did not. no no no no no.

Q: Is it henna? What did they use?? Is it a stick on?
Taylor: Yeah, just like normal tattoos like you get from the 25 cent machine. It’s obviously a little bit more than 25 cents. Yeah just stick the towel over top and water- works pretty nice.

Q: With Twilight, Kristen was underage and it presented a big factor in filming. Since you are under 18 has that affected filming in any way?
Taylor: No I can work the same hours as anybody else. I can work adult hours. I tested out of high school, and I am in college right now. So I can work all night- all day all night (laughs)

Q: It makes it easier?
Taylor: Yes-definitely- [we] get a lot of work done

Q: How is Chris’ process compared to Catherine’s?
Taylor: I don’t know about compared. I mean Catherine was a lot of fun. She had a lot of energy I got along with her great! Chris is very calm, and I see what’s going on it’s looking amazing and some times you just sit back and go, “How are things going so well and so smoothly while he’s just so calm?” I mean he’s such a great guy. He’s really amazing and so talented it’s ridiculous.

Q: How easy was it for you to bond with the rest of the Quileute wolves?
Taylor: Pretty easy. Yeah it’s so cool to have them up here. They’re a lot of cool guys, and we hung out off set so our chemistry can click on set. Yeah it’s a lot of fun to have them here they are really great guys.

Q: Have you had any crazy fan experience since New Moon started filming?
Taylor: You know- the normal- nothing ….

Q: Are there any – not- crazy fan experiences? Are the Canadian fans less aggressive than the US fans?
Taylor: What I’ve found is all Twilight fans are the same anywhere you go. I’ve been all over the world in Australia, Japan…and everybody asks me, “Which ones are better which ones are more passionate?”and I can’t answer. They are all the same: very passionate dedicated fans everywhere you go. So we’ve definitely met some fun fans up here though.

Q: I’ve got to tell you I was a huge fan of “My Own Worst Enemy” I loved what you were doing on there. What did you take from that experience to bring into this?

Taylor: You know it was just really awesome to work with Christian Slater on that. He’s such a great guy: so professional, definitely learned a lot from him on that. Kind of funny thing is that show, I’d study him. He has a split personality, two totally different guys

Q: I know I was thinking of that-
Taylor: Who’s Jacob in this movie? So yea I can definitely learn a lot from Christian Slater.

Q: Do you find it hard to switch between the two personalities- since you do have before the wolfpack and after the wolfpack is it hard to switch when you are doing different scenes?
Taylor: Sometimes you will film a pre transformation Jacob and a post transformation Jacob on the same exact day. So you do have to click over, but it’s really cool because it’s challenging and I like challenging myself as an actor. So I just hope I can bring both sides of Jacob alive for all the fans

Q: What’s been the most challenging so far?
Taylor: It’s the same I would tell ya for the first film: the weather! It’s actually starting to warm up now and it’s a lot nicer than it was at first, but when we got up here towards the end of March it’s snowing and I was like when is this gonna stop! And obviously I’m not wearing that much clothing for most of the film so that doesn’t help either, but the weather is definitely starting to warm up now so that’s nice

Q: What has been your favorite scene to shoot now- or in the future- what are you looking forward to shooting?
Taylor: It’s so hard. I like a lot of the stunt stuff so it’s really cool to do that. The dirt bike scenes, the dirt bike scenes are a lot of fun! And just a lot of stuff in the forest, Jacob gets to show his physicality a little bit more.

Q: Do you get to use your martial arts more?
Taylor: I wouldn’t say martial arts. I think the biggest thing is pre transformation Jacob is very clumsy. He trips over his own feet, and when he transforms into a werewolf he’s very agile all of a sudden. So it’s just kind of…have to show his two separate sides.

Q: What do you want your fans to see from Jacob in this movie?
I want them at the beginning of this film to see this really happy nice sweet guy that they fall in love with- and then all of a sudden POOF! He’s a completely different guy and not even believe it’s the same dude.
Lori R
Nice interview. He handles himself when being interviewed, IMO.
Tekgirl
wave.gif Lori ITA, and Taylor is such a pro in public. It's a pleasure to see him. Poor Kristen and Rob die a thousand deaths when they are stuck giving interviews in public.

Just to prove my point, here's a clip of Kristen, Rob & Taylor from the New Moon panel at Comic Con. Kristen and Rob look like they want to dig a hole and climb in. (The clip looks like it's going to be the NM trailer, but it isn't.)


Is 'Twilight' The One Movie You'd Save If The World Came To An End?
Posted 8/27/09 11:28 am ET by Amy Wilkinson in Movies, Random Yet Notable, Twilight Forever!


If — god forbid — our civilization were to disappear, which works of literature, film, art and music should be preserved to represent our society to future generations? That is the question behind the "What Would You Take With You In 2012?" Web site, set up as a viral marketing tool for November's apocalyptic thriller "2012."
Though polls are still open in the art, literature, and music categories, voting has concluded in the film category with a surprising (yet at the same time, not so surprising if you're tuned into what's popular in pop culture right now) victor: everybody's favorite vampire romance "Twilight." Michael Jackson's 1988 docu-fantasy "Moonwalker" placed second with the "Star Wars" series coming in third.
Now, if you've ever read anything I've written for Hollywood Crush, you know I'm a big fan of Stephenie Meyer's saga, but even I take a long pause at the thought of "Twilight" representing our entire civilization.

You can read the whole blog Here.


And did you know that Wuthering Heights is a bestseller again thanks to Eclipse? You can read about that Here.

Is anyone watching Reelz TV twilight weekly show? So far I am majorly disappointed in it. Lots of filler not very much actually twi-saga stuff (translation: nothing from the movie).
Tekgirl
blush.gif Double post. I got one of "those" messages that MB wasn't posting what I typed.. I guess it did after all...
Kysangel13
Yeah me and sister have been, I agree lots of filler no movie. Showing Twicon was cool and the dresses and masks fromt the Volturi ball was really cool.

Ky, I'm hoping that the Reelz series gets better and has more "meat" to it.

Call me Vidgirl today. Here are a slew of vids: Who would you rather date? Edward or Jacob? Check out this vid to help you decide: Edward or Jacob?

Want a recap on how each Cullen vamp was created? You can see a recap vid Here.

There’s a vid for the Vanity Fair Photo Shoot. I don’t remember seeing it before (though it obviously isn’t new).

Back from San Diego, I had such a great time site seeing something we don't have time to do during CC lol.gif Went to Borders twice and found so many Twi goodies but on one of my visits I had this terrible anti-twi employee aggravating me. She kept going on and on how she can't wait for Twi to be over :mad: At one time I told her to keep her distance; she didn't take me seriously so she went on, grrr. This was at the Borders the podcast was held during CC. At another Borders I found an Edward floor puzzle, like the ones they make for kids in different colors. Didn't get it to much money being spent during vaca.

One more thing... Stickman Theatre is at it again. In Style magazine did a piece on Bella's wedding dress... Not to be outdone, Stickman Theatre did a piece on what the guests will wear at her weddiing. Check it out Here. If you scroll past the wedding guest pics, you can revisit Stickman's interpretation of Eclipse. (Part 1 is after Part 2.)
