The Twilight Impulse
My thoughts and impressions of the Twilight Saga, written by the fabulous Stephenie Meyer
About Me
- Name: TheTwilightImpulse
Hey, I'm a massive Twilight Fan, and thanks to my friends being fed up with having to listern to my non-stop chattering about Twilight, i decided to create a blog for myself to just vent and document my twilight obsession!! I'm current studying journalism and have aspiration to become one, so why not write about something as awesome as the Twilight Saga!!

New Moon DVD!!!
New Moon's Worldwide Weekend Gross!!
Breaking Dawn's Split
End of Credits
Taylor's performance in New Moon
Overall, i think that Taylor was very good. Just some of the expressions that play out on his face broke my heart. Particularly when Jacob was begging Bella to stay though the car window, and she leaves anyway. Taylor's expression, and the look in his eyes, wow. It was probably the most heartfelt moment in the entire film. Yeah, i even thing it was more emotional than the break-up scene where Edward leaves. Taylor is just so good. However, i do have one criticism. Taylor's voice doesn't sound threatening. Sorry, it just sounds too squeaky, high and cute to be dangerous. If Taylor's voice was more deep and masculine, then he would instantly be a million times better. It's not Taylor, it's just the pitch of his voice. I bet if you watched New Moon without the sound on, Jacob would be so much more scary. Apart from that small detail, he was totally perfect. I mean, hey, Taylor turned Andrew Sims to Team Jacob from Team Edward. Taylor was one of the most outstanding cast members, and generally he always stole the scene from Kristen, apart from the friendship break-up scene, Kristen was pretty good in that and Taylor's voice just ruined the tone of the scene. Sorry, Taylor!! I still love you anyway, and will always be Team Jacob!! Mwah....x0x0x0x

New Moon's Box Office
ET is reporting that New Moon was made $140.7 million domestically for America. Worldwide New Moon has made $258.8 million. Wow, considering New Mono was shot on a budget of only $50 million, that's a profit of $208.8!!! Summit are totally going to have enough money to make Breaking Dawn!! I really hope when it gets green lit eventually that Summit give them enough money because the CG is going to be stepped up again, what with Renesmee and other graphics like Bella giving birth and the other vampires gifts!! Wow, go New Moon!!! Eclipse is going to have a massive box office too!! New Moon has surpassed my expectations. I only estimated $75 million. Jeez, i was only $183.8 million short!!

MY NEW MOON REVIEW!!!!!!!!
OMG!!!! I just got back from watching NEW MOON!!!! The whole cinema was packed!! There weren't many seats left. The only time i have seen it that packed is... never!! But, man before the film even began, there were like literally 15 minutes of ads!!! I guess that they knew that there would be millions of people watching, so they decided to have their ad's screened with New Moon. Apart from that, the film was pretty good. MUCH better than Twilight could ever be.

New Moon Tomorrow
YAY!! I'm seeing New Moon 2mozz, finally!! It was released on Thursday, and I'm seeing it on Saturday. Anyway, there have been lots of reviews online, however i didn't read them yet. I favourited them, so i can check them after i have seen the film, and formed an opinion on Chris Weitz project.

Chris Weitz's introduction booklet
One of the things which i love about Chris Weitz is his attention to detail. Chris' famous introduction booklet he distributed to the cast the day they turned up on set, is going to be available to the fans for free, permitting Summit's allowance to do so. This booklet contains Chris introducing the cast to who he is, how he is going to direct, what the tone of the film is going to be like, how the visuals are going to look like , and that he is committed to the story, and not just doing it to hop on the popularity train for the ride. He even included maps so the cast doesn't get lost. Awwwww, that is so sweet. I hope that Summit allows Chris to release it. I mean, it's not like they need the information, and it doesn't reveal anything that Chris hasn't tried to portray in the film, so it should be good. In addition, Chris is going to give it out for free. YES!!! Larry Carroll suggested that he should include it in a book, just like Catherine Hardwicke did with the Twilight Directors Notebook, however Chris didn't want the fans to pay for it, as their support has been amazing. I love Chris, he is SUCH a nice, genuine guy. I just really hope the film is going to be good. I have seen reviews online, but i haven't read them as it would distort my reception context, and therefore my enjoyment of the film. YAY, I'm officially 8 minutes, there will be only 1 day until I'm seeing New Moon!! So wish i could go to a midnight release yesterday. However, it was all sold out in EVERY cinema, so next year for Eclipse, I'll book early this time. Anyways, can't wait to see what's in your pamphlet thing, Chris. It's going to be GOLD!!!

BIG Interviews
Robert, Kristen and Taylor are all going on the big, famous TV shows now that New Moon is only a couple of days away. One of which is Jimmy Kimmel. Now, he was been releasing small clips of the interview so that people are teased a little bit. Anyway, i thought that this was SOOO funny!! Poor Taylor is soo embarrassed, he is majorly blushing.

MTV"s reporting of the New Moon Premier
7:07 Swarms of news cameras are walking up and down the carpet pointing their cameras at fans, knowing it'll elicit some lively screams. Over and over and over, one after another, the cameras keep milking it and the fans don't tire. And nothing's happening yet!
7:08 A fan definitely just yelled "I want to have Rob's baby!" to a news camera. And now the cameraman is having her repeat it. Again. And Again.
7:12 It's getting too dark to wear sunglasses. But plenty of media folks still are. You know who isn't? THE FANS. They need to see everything!!
7:16 A list of the funniest (and more creative) sayings on fan posters: "Kellan makes good girls go bad" ; "From Coast To Coast we love the Cullens the most!"; "I wanna be a stupid lamb" ; "traveled from Florida to be dazzled" and OUR FAVORITE: "Jacob Black?I'd hit that. With a Volvo!"
7:23 Larry just introduced the crew to Kaleb Nation from TwilightGuy.com -- he's great!
7:30 Kiss FM "On Air With Ryan Seacrest" has a soundproof booth. Great idea, but aren't the deafening screams of the fans part of what makes tonight so memorable?
7:31 The Kiss FM booth looks like a giant rectangular soundproof Lego. Or a hall of mirrors at a carnival.
7:32 Director Chris Weitz's publicist just asked if we want to talk to him later. Duh!
7:34 The soundtrack is currently cranking on the red carpet (though it's hard to tell which song is playing!) and man, is it cool. Chop Shop has been killing with music supervision ever since "The OC." From "Gossip Girl" to "90210" to the "Twilight" franchise, Alex and her team know how to pick 'em!
7:40 Red carpet placement FYI, we're between E! and MySpace. Where the real party is at.
7:42 It's surprisingly warm out still. Maybe Rob and Taylor will take their shirts off.
7:45 Our handsome production manager is pretending to shoot reporter standups. He's helping one of our camera guys figure out his shot. It doesn't look nearly as weird as it sounds.
7:47 Other than the increasingly sparse screams (seems like every news crew has gotten their requisite "everybody scream!" shots by now), it's the calm before the storm. SO PUMPED! This thing is gonna go off soon.
7:49 We were just told the fire marshall won't let us off our little platform while things are happening. We've worked a lot of carpets and that is a very unusual instruction. This thing is GOING TO BE CRAZY!
7:50 Our own Larry Carroll has been asked to sign a few autographs. Seriously! We all love the fans intense love for Larry. You guys rule!
7:52 The fans just cheered for a celebrity arrival — Ryan Seacrest! He has now disappeared into his giant Lego lookalike booth.
7:54 Reporters are showing up at the E! platform next to us. Once I accidentally called Guiliana Rancic "Guiliani." She smiled warmly and said, "It happens."
8:01 We are taping down marks where the celebs will stand while we interview them. getting closer!
8:04 We can now confirm: Stephenie will be here tonight!!!!
8:07 Also Joan Jett is on the tip sheet!
8:08 A radio station DJ is on a loudspeaker hyping the crowd now. Like we need it!
8:19 Julia Jones — who is in the wolf pack in "Eclipse" — is headed our way!
8:24 Julia is telling Larry all about her character in "Eclipse"!
8:26 Michael Welch and Justin Chon have arrived.
8:30 Julia looks absolutely stunning in a strapless dress by Norwegian designer Leila Hafzi
8:33 Lykke Li is on our platform in "stripper shoes from a store in London" (her words!), a very sheer black dress (vintage Jean Paul Gaultier) and an an Opening Ceremony jacket.
8:35 Lykke Li said she's "independent" — she can't pick Team Edward or Team Jacob.
8:37 Justine Wachsberger, who plays Gianna in "New Moon," is in a very pretty strapless green Issa dress with a Swarovski clutch. She's telling Larry it was fun to play her character because she's Italian (Justine grew up in France). She's only in the movie briefly, but has a big part in the book.
8:39 Justine isn't sure she's in "Breaking Dawn" yet, but she has her fingers crossed she'll be cast.
8:43 Richie Sambora is here. I wonder if he rode a steel horse.
8:48 Mark Salling from "Glee" is headed our way.
8:51 What's Mark wearing? Black v-neck, jeans, sneakers ... and his mohawk. Very red carpet casual cool.
8:54 Another "Glee" cast member, Kevin McHale, is hanging with us now. He's wearing a very shiny Top Man suit. Very friendly guy.
8:55 Kevin just called this premiere "unreal. It's massive." (He should just wait till "Glee" takes off even more!)
8:56 As Kevin points out, "Twilight" isn't just for teenage girls. "It appeals to everybody... The books are romantic and epic, everything."
8:58 Attention "X-Men" fans (like us!): Daniel Cudmore, a.k.a. the mighty metal mutant Colossus, is here!
9:02 Justin Chon is talking to Larry right now! And looking dashing in a "Reservoir Dogs"-looking Dolce & Gabbana suit.
9:03 Security is kicking out some fans who snuck behind our platform. Sorry girls!
9:04 Justin hasn't seen "New Moon" yet. Tonight will be his first time!
9:07 Gil Birmingham just left our platform and now Chris Walla from Death Cab For Cutie is joking about the less than crazy response he got when stepped out of the car.
9:08 Gil, for those of you not sure at home, plays Billy Black (Jacob's papa).
9:09 We love you Chris Walla! And these fans love your music even if they don't recognize you as quickly as they should. Continuing on our music theme (hey, we ARE MTV!), the gentlemen of OK GO are up here now
9:10 "This is nuts, this is incredible!" Damian (from OK GO) is saying. "Twilight is for children of all ages." Right on Damian!
9:11 Two more fans snuck between our platform and E!'s. Security just kicked them out, too. Yikes.
9:13 OK GO were all wearing Italian brand (fitting, eh?) Costume National.
9:14 "New Moon" screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg (pictured above) is telling Larry she tries to shut out the rest of the world when she's writing.
9:15 Melissa doesn't know if she'll be writing the fourth movie yet but she'd be honored to do it.
9:16 Booboo Stewart, who's in "Eclipse," is telling us how amazing and incredible it is that the fans camp out for days.
9:18 Emma Roberts said she's read the books. Good girl!
9:21 Michael Welch, a.k.a. Mike Newton, is wearing a sharp looking Theory suit. Tonight will be the first time he's seen "New Moon, "just like the last premiere was the first time he saw "Twilight." He's talking about how great it was to meet and work with Taylor. "He's a really good guy, man."
9:24 We just asked Colossus (er, Daniel Cudmore) to stand down a step on our platform. Otherwise he'd be too tall for our camera angle while we interview him. For real!
9:28 Alex Meraz is also wearing a D&G suit — popular choice tonight!
9:29 "These films are just getting bigger, better and more exciting," says Alex, while telling us about the "fast-paced" fight scenes.
9:30 Ladies and gentlemen, Cameron Bright is officially wearing the coolest shoes we've seen on a dude tonight
9:31 It turns out they are his own line! "Cameron Bright by Ula" Wow!
9:32 Bronson Pelletier literally came BOUNCING onto our platform, exclaiming, "MTV! Wassup!"
9:33 "There's a lot of cuties out here. I'm a single guy!" insisted Bronson. You heard it here first, ladies.
9:36 Kristen Prout, who's in "Eclipse," says Jackson Rathbone did a great job riding his horse.
9:38 Kristen P is wearing Marciano.
9:39 Our second shiny black suit of the night is being worn by Charlie Bewley (Demetri). The suit is by Jean Paul Gaultier
9:40 Charlie just described shooting Eclipse as "a magical experience."
9:41 "KELLAN! KELLAN! KELLAN!" the chants over yonder are THUNDEROUS!
9:43 Larry just complimented Kiowa Gordon on his Hugo Boss suit. And rightfully so!
9:44 Jennie Garth is here. ("Dun-dun-dun-dun, dun-dun-dun-dun: cha! cha!" - that's our phonic approximation of one of the greatest theme songs ever... from "Beverly Hills, 90210" people!)
9:45 Kiowa's blue tie is matched by his blue cuff links. Now THAT is style, people.
9:46 Word has it 50 Cent was here but may have already left.
9:49 Chaske Spencer says "at the end of the day I'm just some lucky guy." He says various members of the wolf pack are betting "dinner" with each other over box office predictions. And here's 50 Cent! He's still here! And shook hands with Chaske on his way up.
9:50 50's wearing John Varvatos. He's also wearing a very large pinky ring.
9:51 50 is saying "maybe in the future" in regard to contributing to one of the soundtracks.
9:52 Joan Jett is headed up our steps. Holy crap she looks cool.
9:53 Joan decided to see "Twilight" after hearing Kristen was cast as her in "The Runaways" movie. She "really enjoyed it" and found it "entertaining."
9:54 Joan's biker boots would put Billy Idol to shame. And they even have a little sparkle, Edward Cullen style!
9:55 Joan just confirmed that Kristen will "DEFINITELY" be doing her own singing in the Runaways movie!!
9:56 How did Joan react the first time she saw Kristen dressed up a her? "Big smile, man!"
9:57 There is a HUGE CHEER that just passed through EVERYWHERE like a wave!!!
9:57 And it was for Kellan! (We thought maybe Robert was here, it's almost movie time, where is he?!?)
10:00 Peter Facinelli is saying this is easier to enjoy this time because he knew what to expect. It can all be pretty overwhelming!
10:01 Peter's best accessory is the adorable little girl holding his hand — his daughter
10:04 Word is that Taylor is here!
10:05 Chris Weitz just stepped on our platform wearing Tom Ford.
10:07 Chris says he thought about publishing a book, but decided against it because by a month by now he'll be sick of talking about this movie. He may give some stuff like that for free at some point if it's OK with the studio.
10:12 Edi Gathegi and his very cool gray/ black/red Moschino suit just left as Nikki Reed heads our way. She's in a soft comfy looking Burberry with Christian Louboutin heels.
10:13 ROBERT is definitely here and inching closer to where we're at!
10:14 The "ROBERT! ROBERT! ROBERT! ROBERT!" chant just went off. It... Was... Loud!
10:15 Kristen Stewart has arrived!
10:16 Ashley Greene's red, flowing Prabal Gurung dress requires an extra person to help her walk the carpet. It's worth it. She's also wearing Brian Atwood shoes, but we can't see them. Accessories: Loree Radkin jewelry and a Jimmy Choo clutch.
10:18 Ashley said she just got an email saying that "we broke the presale" record. She definitely predicts the opening weekend will be "bigger" than Twilight
10:19 Kellan is on our platform!
10:20 Kellan just called the crowd "amazing," but we think his pocket square is pretty amazing, too. Just sayin'...
10:21 What smell drives Kellan as crazy as the smell of blood drives his character? "The smell of gummy bears."
10:22 I wonder if Armani would make a suit like his small enough for a gummy bear. Speaking of small, Dakota Fanning is growing up but she's still so cute and little. And here she comes! She's only got time for two questions so let's hope Larry makes 'em good. Aw, who are we kidding? He always does.
10:23 Dakota is wearing a black Valentino. She's also wearing a really big ring that looks kind of like the ones that allow vampires to walk in daylight in "The Vampire Diaries." Hmmmmm. Her D&G shoes made her really tall!
10:24 Kevin Smith is walking the carpet with his daughter Harley Quinn as Michael Sheen comes on up to talk to us.
10:25 Let's all pause for a moment to ponder how kickass it is that Kevin named his daughter after the Joker's radical cartoon sidekick.
10:26 Robert is talking to E! right next to us. Next stop... MTV, son!
10:26 Robert is making time for a few smaller outlets before he comes over to us. He hasn't forgotten the little people.
10:27 C'mon dude... We can't wait to see you!
10:28 We are all frozen waiting for Rob. It's pretty funny.
10:29 Our busy platform has ground to a halt in anticipation
10:30 "Two questions. Nothing personal, please." The order has been decreed. We're close. He's here!
10:31 Robert just said he loves how our mics are always "scuffed." Uh, thanks? Haha!
10:32 What's the best part about being Robert Pattinson? He laughs and thinks for a minute. "I couldn't really tell you," he says with his wide smile. What's the worst part? "You've got to work every single day." Which he hasn't gotten used to.
10:33 And he's gone! Dragged away by a publicist as quickly as he arrived.
10:35 Robert is wearing Gucci, by the way. Wherever he is now.
10:39 Adam Shankman is telling Larry about his involvement in the movie version of the "Rock Of Ages" musical, which was just announced in the trades.
10:45 It's quiet at our end of the carpet as we wait for Kristen and Taylor!
10:48 Yup, It looks like Taylor is getting closer.
10:51 We can see Kristen! Gorgeously porcelain.
10:52 Kellan just walked by with his arm around a fan wearing a "Nutz For Lutz" t-shirt. Pretty sure he pulled her out of the crowd!
10:56 An excited and hurried publicist just ran over and asked, "Will you guys be ready for Kristen?" HECK YEAH!!!!!
10:57 She was headed our way but then her folks realized she passed E!. She was almost to our platform then redirected with an about-face to our neighbors.
10:57 Meanwhile, Taylor is taking pictures with three sneaky young fans who somehow have credentials.
10:58 A security guard is checking their credentials... again!
11:00 Here she is! Wait... she's taking pictures with those three sneaky fans!
11:01 Kristen is talking to Larry about how great it is to have Taylor here after all the questions about whether he'd return. "I'm so proud of him ... I think he's the most centered of anybody here."
11:03 Kristen was chattier than usual. What's the best thing about being her? She says she knows she'll never get to experience anything like this (pointing to the fans) no matter what kind of movies she's in. "Definitely this is the coolest thing."
11:04 "We put a lot of hard work into this film, and I'm dying for it to come out!" SO ARE WE TAYLOR!
11:05 Kristen confirmed what Joan told us, by the way, that she is definitely doing her own singing in "The Runaways" movie.
11:06 Taylor is telling Larry he's "sticking to the diet and trying to get into the gym as much as possible," but it's been hard with everything going on lately.
11:07 Taylor is wearing Calvin Klein. Kristen is wearing Oscar de la Renta.
11:08 The crowd is chanting "TAYLOR! TAYLOR! TAYLOR!" as the carpet winds to a close.
11:10 That's a wrap, folks. Thanks for joining us on our journey to the "New Moon"!
My New Moon Guestimation
The stars on the red carpet are betting and predicting how much New Moon will make at the box office. Last year, Twilight made 69.7m when it was only expected to make 40 m, maximum. Ashley thinks it will make 79m, Nikki guesses 69m, Edi bet 92m, Kellan thinks 72m, Danial thinks 88m, and Chaske made a bet with a wolf pack member and whoever loses has to buy the other did, although he didn't specify what amount they bet. I'm not sure how much it will make, but i know it's going to be HUGE!! I don't want to be too cocky and have this really insane high figure, so I'm going to predict 75m. It's not too high, but it larger than Twilight. Obviously, New Moon is going to blow Twilight out of the water, so i tried to make it somewhat realistic. Well, we will all find out soon!! Squeee!!
New Moon Pre-Sale
I have just read that New Moon pre-sale tickets, which have been purchased before the film hits cinemas, has been record-breaking. New Moon's sales on Fandango have beat prior records such as "Star Wars III - Revenge of the Sith", "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", and "The Dark Knight". WOW!!!! Those are seriously big cult classic movies, and New Moon has beaten their records. All of those three movies have such MASSIVE budgets, and New Moon here, has a very small budget of 50 m, compared to like the 300 + m it takes to make Harry Potter. I just goes to show that don't underestimate the power of the Twihards. And for all of those people saying that Twilight will never be as big as Harry Potter, think again. Relax, Twihards aren't taking over your fandom, and there is enough room for all of us at the top. It just amazing to see what a good director and crew can do for a film. I've been hearing that New Moon is amazing, and it's so much better than Twilight. Anyway, i just think that it's brilliant that all of these fans are out there supporting New Moon. I don't have any doubts about whether they will make Breaking Dawn. If the only prerequisite is having enough money to budget the film, then they won't have anything to worry about. GO NEW MOON!!!! Oh, and just a little bit of trivia, out of Fandango's total ticket sales, New Moon made up 92% this week alone. COOL!!!

Shut Down
Twilight at my cinemas...
So, I'm going to see Twilight on Saturday!! Yay!! However, my friends are organising it, so i can just turn up. Yeah, I'm THAT lazy that Twilight one serious passions, and i CBF buying tickets so i make my friends do it for me. Anyway, I checked out the session times, only to discover that Twilight is playing on Wednesday, one night before New moon is released on Thursday. That's really cool, because they never do that for any other movies. So Twilight is special that they are holding a special screenings, Woo! When i went to click on New Moon, there are like, a million screenings a day. OK, maybe not a million but like 20!! Ive never seen any film more with more sessions than New Moon in my ENTIRE life. The funny thing is, if you click on any other movie, they have a maximum of one screening of that film per day, excluding 2012 of course.Twilight has taken over the cinemas!! I suppose they know that they are going to get millions of fans to see the film!! I'm sooo EXCITED!! I don't think i could be anymore excited!! That's probably not true, because right before i see it, i will be totally fangirling so bad that my friends will be embarrassed!!! But, i don't give a shit is people stare at me. I'll be too excited to care!!

New Moon on 60 Minutes!!
OK, well the only reason i watched 60 minutes is because they had interviews with Robert, Kristen and Taylor. Pretty sad that 60 Minutes of all people, would score interviews with the cast. Anyways, i gotta say it was a VERY crap segment. I mean, really bad. It just looked like they had taken clips from Twilight, the premier, screaming fans and New moon released footage, that i have on my computer and put it together. I could have done that and created a better story. All they focused on was Robert and his "new found fame". Ummm, what?? Get with the program, last year Rob was dealing with his "new found fame", this is it isn't new. It's just the same of what they experienced last year. Obviously, someone has never heard of Robert, Kristen or Taylor before doing the story. Plus, with an elderly guy reporting, i doubt he knows ANYTHING at all about Twilight. Anyway, he said that the fame would "catapulting it's young English star". Umm, if i didn't know any better, i would think that Robert is the only person in the saga. I mean, essientially though-out the whole story, they just show Robert, and how famous he is, and just boring generic question's that all of the fans already know the answers to. Robert was asked what is his most crazy fan encounter, and obviously Robert told the one about those 3 girls who scratched their necks till they bled. Crap interviewer, just so you know. And, they totally neglected Kristen and Taylor. Ummm, hello?? Bella is the main protagonist for the entirety of the Twilight Saga, and Taylor plays a massive role in New Moon. It has been known to be called "Jacob's Book", by some people. Plus, he kept revering to Jacob as "the other guy". They only focused on Robert, as i'm sure he is the only one they have a slightt familiarity with. They only presented two small clips of Kristen, and one small one of Taylor. Also, they got Taylor's name wrong. Come on!!! They can't even get one of the casts name right!! Seriously?? They could have gone to Wikipedia, even they have their information correct. Jeez, some people need to check their sources!!! They called Taylor, "Jacob Lautner". I mean, that is so insulting. They didn't take the story seriously enough to even check whether they had their names right. Poor Taylor. He hardly got any publicity in the first Twilight film. Now, even after becoming more well known, people still get his name wrong. Apart from being totally ignored along with Kristen, Robert was the only thing that they seemed concerned with. In the introduction, and for the first 7 or 8 minutes of a 10 minute segment, there was no mention of Kristen or Taylor. It was painfully evident that they didn't have much of an idea of what they were actually talking about, and they were just using Twilight's fame, to get ratings. They actually thought that vampires "ate in the cafeteria", but Robert quickly corrected him that they don't eat human food. Umm, 60 minutes!! Piss off, research your information once in a while, then maybe you won't have to make so many public apologies when they are being sued all the time or just annoying many viewers. Spitting image of Today Tonight and ACA . Epic failure of a story. Nice try, but it was just bad!!

Romeo and Juliet
Chris Weitz has included Romeo and Juliet in New Moon. Wow, that really surprised me as i thought it would be something that they would cut. It's parallels the plot, but it's not totally essential to it, so i thought that they would remove it. But, I'm just glad to see it is in there. I don't think that it's going to play a massive role, like it did in the books where Bella is contemplating the correlations between herself, Jacob and Edward to Juliet, Paris and Romeo. Apparently, someone from the press says that Bella is just reading Romeo and Juliet, so i think that it just a cute little thing they added for the fans to pick up on. I really hope that there are allot of things that only people who have read the books will be able to pick up. Bring it on Chris!! Only, just over 6 days until New Moon is released!! YES!!!

Another almost kiss scene
I was reading some interviews with the cast, because there are soo many of them now, and i came across something Taylor had said. He was talking about his wig when he said, "It would get caught in my mouth, and i would be spitting it out in this scene where I'm coming close to kissing Bella. It was annoying." Um, there must be another scene where Jacob tries to kiss Bella because he was spitting hair out of his mouth, meaning he was wearing his wig. There is only one in the books, and it's where Bella and Jacob are in her kitchen and the phone interrupts them. That takes place at the end of the book, where Jacob is a werewolf and has really short hair. Chris Weitz must have added another one. I'm guessing it's when Jacob, Bella and Mike all go to the movies together. I think it's going to occur when Bella and Jacob are sitting in the secluded hallway, while Mike is in the bathroom doing very unpleasant things. So, I'm speculating that is when Jacob tries to kiss her, because in the books, that's when he places his moves on Bella anyway. So i guess to emphasise Jacob's feelings, Chris felt the need to add that in. What probably happens is Jacob is bending his face towards Bella's and Mike interrupts. That makes sense, because in the pictures we have of Bella, Jacob and Mike when they are talking in the hallway; Jacob looks really annoyed at Mike, Bella just looks stunned and out of it while Mike looks like he is yelling at them, or something. Anyway, i don't think i hate this because it fits in with Jacob's personality. He is very pushy towards Bella. That just the way Jacob is so, i can imagine him getting frustrated with Bella because she is in love with someone who hurt her, however she can't see someone who really cares for her in front of her face. Awwww, that's so sweet. That scene is going to be epic, but this is just my own speculation. It may play out differently.
SO JEALOUS!!
OMG!!! Look at this picture from Entertainment Weekly. I'm SOOOO JEALOUS!!! Kristen Stewart has to be the LUCKIEST girl EVER!!! Seriously, these are the hottest guys EVER!!! I mean, everyone in the Twilight cast is beautiful. So having, the two, sexy, beautiful, gorgeous, attractive, smoking hot male leads kissing your cheeks simultaneously is EVERY Twilight fangirls dream!!! I hate you Kristen. Nah, I'm totally joking, but i sooo want to be you right NOW!!!
Will Summit cast smaller roles?
I've been reading Eclipse again for the millionth time because my friends STILL has my copy of New Moon, and it just finished filming. I was thinking about if they were going to cast some of the other smaller roles, like Levi Uley and Rachelle Black. I'm not sure if they will, as Lauren, Austen, Ben, and lots of the humans were cut out. However, Rachelle does play a role. Paul imprints on her. So, if she isn't in the film, then it won't be as dramatic. This is because everyone around Jacob is supposed to be imprinting, except him. Sam, Quil, Paul, and Jared. So, if they are leaving out some characters like Rachelle, and Jared's imprint (it doesn't say her name in the books), then it's going to make it less dramatic when Jacob is depressed because everyone is imprinting around him won't be as emphatic. Of course, they have to add Claire in, because it would be wrong to leave that out. Quil and Claire sets up the idea that the imprint doesn't have to be romantic, and it can happen at a young age. If that is excluded, then it's going to have be explained in Breaking Dawn when Jacob imprint's on Renesmee. That would take too much time, so I'm almost positive that they are going to keep it in Eclipse. I'm hoping that they add those smaller character, but i don't think they will. I'm sure they will be mentioned, but maybe just not present in the film, because they aren't pivotal to the main plot.

Score Titles Released
Yes!! The score titles were just released!!! I'm so excited for the score, because Alexandre Desplat is an amazing composer. I mean, he worked on "The Queen," "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," "Girl with a Pearl Earring," and "The Golden Compass." Wow, those were all big, epic films. After hearing "The Meadow," on the soundtrack, it just reiterated by confidence within Alexandre to compile a beautiful score for New Moon. The track titles are :
Press' screening of New Moon
Oh, totally unfair that the press have seen New Moon before the fans. Why? They may not even be interested in the books, and they get to see it before the fans. Umm, last time i checked, the only reason they were even filming New Moon, was because of all the fans supporting Twilight. OK, I'm probably biast, because I'm not press and although i want to be. But, I'm just fuming because I'm sooo jealous. Seriously!! Waiting an entire year, for this to be filmed and go though post, and some people are seeing it before us.
Teaser Trailer before "The Time Travler's Wife"
I just saw "The Time Traveler's Wife," tonight and it was pretty good. But, the thing which caught my attention, is they played the New Moon teaser trailer before it! OMG, it was soooo good. Compared to seeing it on my computer with headphones, it was amazing. The picture was so big and clear, wow. The sound was crazy good. The floor was vibrating, when Jasper tries to attack Bella, and when Jake phases. OMG!! That looked sooo cool!! I'm super pumped for this film!!!I can't believe it's only 12 day until the 19th!!! Well, I'm going on the 21st, but still!! I'm expecting the good, Weitz. But don't worry, I'm pretty confident you can bring it. Only worried about Kristen's acting, and Robert's constipation looks. Other than that, I'm sure were good. Oh, and just a picture of the wolves, because i can.

Slow News
I haven't been posting much, as there hasn't been hardly any important news. I really don't like writing about, "Kristen has lunch with an unidentified friend," or "Kellan goes for a run with his dog." Just random, trivial, useless stuff that is just invading the casts personal space. I don't think that Summit is going to give out anymore than we have already seen because :
B. The film is coming out VERY soon and

We Got ANOTHER Musican in Twilight
Just discovered that Tyson Houseman can play the guitar!! Wow, is it like a prerequisite to be a musician?? Weird so many of them are musicians, however i don't know if it is a coincidence. Twilight should definitely become a band, and just tour after the saga has finished or something. It would be hilarious in the outtakes, if the cast just breaks out into a musical number, like HSM or Glee! That would be awesome for the DVD!!

Robert's popularity overrated!!
Obviously everyone is aware of how famous Robert Pattinson is. If you go to the supermarket, every single magazine has something about Robert on the cover! Seriously, it's true; check it out. I mean, it's getting to the point where it's ridiculous. Robert doesn't have much of a life. He probably spends the majority of his time inside a hotel, or his home because he is afraid of being followed by paparazzi, or being mauled by psychotic fans.

Robert and fans in Toyko
In absolute contradiction to my last post, Rob arrived in Japan without being attacked by fans. They were respectful, cool, composed, and gave him some space. See, he even signed things for the fans because they weren't attacking him, or invading his personal space. Do you think that Taylor and Kristen signed anything? No, they got their asses outta there as fast the they could. If the fans show respect, then the cast are going to come up, say hi, sign some stuff and take pictures. That's what being cool gets you. Just want to thank the Japan fans for treating Rob kindly. They actually lined up, so everyone could see Robert, and take some pictures, while he didn't get attacked. That is really great to see. Maybe he wouldn't run away from everyone, if people acted like the people who turned up at the Japan airport. I mean, I'm sure that nobody wants a repeat of the frizzy haired fan girl who jumped Rob, then he proceeded to get hit by a taxi, trying to escape them.Thanks, guy. You give Twilight fans a good name!!
