10 Things Hidden in the New Moon Movie

Chris Weitz has released 10 things that they 'hid' in the New Moon Movie...check it out here!

Bryce Dallas Howard Talks Eclipse Fight Scene

I believe someone referred to the Eclipse Finale as EPIC. Cannot wait! Bryce Dallas Howard, our new Victoria spoke to MTV recently....

“There’s quite an extraordinary finale,” Howard told MTV News of the scene that took weeks of intense fight training to prepare for. “That was very fun to do.” Howard was careful not to reveal any details about the pivotal scene, but she did concede that the battle will likely trump the ballet-studio fight in “Twilight” and the Volturi rumble in “New Moon.”

“The producers were saying it’s the biggest spectacle filmed thus far in this
franchise,” she said. “There’s a newborn army that’s been raised for battle. It’s a true battle scene.”

Cafe Press: Taylor Lautner Switches Teams

Cafe Press has a cute little feature on Taylor wearing a Team Edward shirt last night on SNL. Both shirts worn in the Twilight sketch were from Cafe Press.

Check it out here.

Taylor's Team Edward vs Team Jacob SNL Skit!!! AWESOME!

OK this is just HILARIOUS!!!!! I absolutely LOVE this, Taylor was great, didn't even crack a smile.

Taylor on DNL Tonight

Don't forget that Taylor Lautner will be hosting Saturday Night Live tonight! I'll bet there'll be some Twilight spoofing going on :-)

Lots of Talk About Breaking Dawn

It seems everywhere you look on-line, they are discussing Breaking Dawn and what Summit will do with this book-to-movie. Many people think they should break the book into two movies, while others aren't so sure (I, btw am one of those NOT sold on two movies). Whichever side you are on, one thing we can all agree on is that it SHOULD and WILL be made into a movie. Reports are popping up all over claiming that Summit wants to make it into two movies to a) capitalize on the financial success of the saga and b) be able to keep true to the very lengthy book (754 pages).

This morning Yahoo reports...

Big Questions Surround the Final 'Twilight' Film
by Chrissy Le Nguyen · December 3, 2009

Independent film studio Summit Entertainment has got quite a gem on their hands, and its name is the "Twilight" series.

The first movie quickly became a blockbuster box-office hit in 2008 despite early concerns that the book series' rabid fan following wouldn't translate to ticket sales. The second, "New Moon," has grossed over $481 million worldwide since its premiere on November 20. The third installment of the franchise, "Eclipse," wrapped up shooting back in October and is slated to release June 2010.

With the enormous success of the franchise so far, Summit is already working to adapt Stephenie Meyer's fourth and final book in the series, "Breaking Dawn," into a movie. Currently, the studio is deciding whether or not it's best to split the 754-page book into two pictures, along the same lines as "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows."

According to Variety, a two-parter is the path Summit is pursuing for "Breaking Dawn," with hopes that "New Moon" director Chris Weitz will return to helm both pictures. If the two-film route does come to fruition, Summit would have to negotiate new deals with the main cast -- Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner -- since they are only under contract for four features.

But there's a bigger issue to worry about here: How will they transfer the complex and graphic storylines in "Breaking Dawn" to the big screen? With even the biggest "Twilight" fans split on whether they love or hate the book, there's no question that its content will pose a handful of problems for a movie adaptation.

"Breaking Dawn" contains -- SPOILER ALERT! -- huge sections addressing
the complications of vampire/human sex, an unconventional pregnancy, and the
gory birth of a half-vampire, half-human baby. On top of that, there's a chunk in the middle of the book where Jacob takes over narration duty from Bella, leading up to him "imprinting" on the newborn child (translation: The teenaged werewolf falls in love with an infant).

Nowadays, nothing is impossible with a bit of movie-making magic. From
a sparkly vampire to a boy who transforms into a wolf the size of a horse, computer-generated effects can work wonders. But just because it can be done
doesn't mean it will live up to expectations. Stephenie Meyer has even expressed her worries on her official site: "The one thing that I've never seen is a CGI human being who truly looks real. An actress can't play Renesmee [the half-vampire baby], at least not when she's a few days old... She would have to be a construct, and CGI isn't quite there yet."

Special effects aside, the mature and explicit nature of "Breaking Dawn" will be a challenge for the studio to keep at a PG-13 rating. They'd have to leave out a lot of the material or figure out a way to tone it down. But in doing so, they run the risk of upsetting fans. On the flip side, if the film version requires an R rating, parents may be wary of sending their teen girls to the movies. Tough call.

What do you think? Can "Breaking Dawn" be successfully transferred to the silver screen? Will it be able to stay true to the text? Is Summit up for the challenge?

Melissa Rosenberg Talks About My Very Favorite Scene!! (well one of my favorite scenes)

The tent scene proves (imo) once and for all how much Edward loves and what he is willing to do for Bella. Ahhhh love....

Twilight Saga screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg talked to Reelz the other day and
offered up some info about Eclipse. In particular, she teased the infamous tent
scene:

In Eclipse we’re going to see this triangle between Edward, Bella, and Jacob. And I think we’re going to see a lot of heat between these characters. Because Jacob has been so well established now in New Moon, he’s a real rival now. So I think he’s going to throw that relationship into upheaval. We had to have the tent scene. This is one of Stephenie’s favorite chapters in all the books she’s written. It had been building to this scene: Bella’s in a tent with Jacob and Edward, and they’re trapped in this tent, and Jacob’s keeping Bella warm. And it’s an incredibly tense scene — but finally these guys are talking to each other. And it’s a really interesting conversation.

Interesting conversation.....Ah, yeah I'll say.

New Moon Still On Top But Not By Much (Yikes!)

The Associated Press is reporting......

'New Moon' keeps top box office spot with $42.5M (AP)
Source: AP Sun Nov 29, 2009

LOS ANGELES - Vampires and werewolves continue to howl at the box office with a $42.5 million weekend for "The Twilight Saga: New Moon."

The "Twilight" sequel remains No. 1 for a second straight weekend, though it was nearly blind-sided for the top spot by a real-life football drama.

"The Blind Side" had a great second weekend with $40.1 million, coming in at No. 2 just behind "New Moon." The inspirational story of Baltimore Ravens tackle Michael Oher stars Sandra Bullock as a woman whose wealthy family takes in the homeless teen and enrolls him in private school.

While the weekend haul for "New Moon" dropped steeply from the movie's $142.8 million opening, "The Blind Side" actually went up from its $34.1 million first weekend.

Let's not let New Moon slip out of the top spot!!

Wondering Why Edward Wore a Suit? Why Jacob Wore Tight Jean Shorts??

EW talked to Trish Monaghan, Costume Designer for New Moon and Eclipse about the looks we saw in New Moon ansd will see in Eclipse. I found this article extremely interesting and love how much thought and research went into it! I think they did a much better job this time with the costuming.

.....he’s getting into his graduation year, he’s in a relationship. He had worn hoodies and jeans and sneakers, and Robert, the director [Chris Weitz], and I all wanted to portray him more as a gentleman, more elegant and classic. With our vampire characters, I always went back to the time period in which they were turned to see if there’s any element I could try to simulate in contemporary clothing.....

....You had to be very careful with where the shorts fall on the hip bone, we had to make sure everything sits at the same place when they run. Each individual actor had their own request, but we also had requests from the visual effects department, because if we had big, loose shredded shorts on when they morphed into wolves, it’s too much work and too many hours to magically get rid of that clothing on camera. They wanted the shorts as close-fitting to the leg as possible, whereas the natural tendency of the guys would be to have something baggier so that they didn’t look like they were wearing hot pants. [Laughs] So if I knew they were going to morph, then they had tighter-fitting shorts.....

A Word on the CG Wolves and Taylor's Eyes

from LA Times.

SCENE STEALER
Patrick Kevin Day spoke with effects legend Phil Tippett about creating the werewolf effects for "The Twilight Saga: New Moon," (and no, we're not talking about Taylor Lautner's supernatural 16 pack)......

Darkness may be a visual effects artist's best friend, but his biggest enemy isn't bright sunlight -- it's the overcast day. So adding all those CG werewolves to scenes shot in cloudy Vancouver, Canada, was a particular challenge for "New Moon" visual effects supervisor Phil Tippett and his team. "On a sunny day, you get
really nice contrasts, but with flat lighting and a furry thing -- the fur really soaks up the light and everything appears flat," Tippett said. "So to make it appear three-dimensional, we had to goose reality. We emphasized their shadows and used rim lights" to make the wolves stand out from the background. But that's not the only way Tippett and company played with reality. When that wolf checks out Bella, it's not a wolf's eyes, it's Jacob's. "We brought Taylor [Lautner] in and had him haul his eyelids back as far as possible and shot close-ups." They then added those eyes to the giant animated timber wolf used in the scene.

Statement from Summit on Breaking Dawn

According to HisGoldenEyes.com Summit has released the following in response to the rumors circulating like crazy about a Breaking Dawn movie.

In response to certain videos which pertain rumors about the production of
Breaking Dawn, Summit Entertainment released this statement. Nothing else is
official yet!

“Summit Entertainment looks forward to bringing “Breaking Dawn”
to the big screen but at this point any additional information is premature.”

New Moon DVD Details

The movie just hit the theaters a few days ago, but MTV and Chris Weitz have some details about the DVD which is expected to hit stores in the first quarter of 2010. Is it wrong that I can't wait for the DVD?? (I am particularly excited to watch the movie with the commentary, that is seriously the best way to watch Twilight on DVD)

"There will be a commentary track," Weitz revealed, saying that he'll soon head into the recording booth with his three big stars, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. "It'll just be us riffing off each other in our intimate way," he grinned. "We kind of like each other, so that should be fun."

There will be probably about 20 minutes of deleted material," he explained, promising some meaty footage. "It really is good stuff and a bonus for the fans." Among this bonus footage could be several moments MTV knows was shot but did not make the final "New Moon" cut, including:
» A scene with Rachelle Lefevre as Victoria driving to Forks in a car, snacking on a dead human. It was one of the final moments the actress filmed as the
nomadic vampire.
» A scene with the human characters eating Burger King.
» Another scene with the humans, this time with Justin Chon and Michael Welch expressing jealousy over Edward's car.
» More scenes with the Volturi in Italy.
» An extended cut of the scene where Mike Newton quotes Shakespeare to Bella in the Forks High parking lot; in it, he does a Marlon Brando impersonation.
» Scenes alluding to the ongoing breakup between Newton and Anna Kendrick's Jessica.

"When I made the film, I wanted it to arrive at a certain kind of flow and cadence," Weitz said of why he had to leave so many scenes on the cutting-room floor but hopes to restore many for the DVD. "[They would have affected] how the movie worked, and they didn't completely fit. But there'll be some groovy stuff in [the DVD]."

LOL...Groovy.

Wyck Godfrey Talks About The Making of Bella's Cliff Dive

I think it's safe to say it's one of the most important parts of the book and movie - Bella's Cliff Dive. That one moment set off a whole chain of events and well we all know how that ended :-). Twilight Saga Producer Wyck Godfrey talks about how that scene was brought to life in the movie.

New Moon Kicks Some Serious Opening Weekend Butt

Reports are all over the place that New Moon broke records and exceeded expectations for opening weekend. With numbers like this, can the announcement of Breaking Dawn be too far off? From MTV.com...

On Friday alone, "New Moon" managed to earn $72.7 million, surpassing "The
Dark Knight" as the single best opening day in cinema history. A hefty $26.3
million chunk of that Friday change came purely from midnight showings,
propelling "New Moon" past "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" with the highest-grossing midnight opening of all time. "New Moon" also debuted with the biggest November opening ever and the third-best opening weekend of all time, taking that distinction away from "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest."

To put the success of "New Moon" in perspective, the first "Twilight"
film — which opened almost a year ago to the day — earned only $69.6 million in
its debut weekend, demonstrating just how widespread the "Twilight" craze has
become in only 12 months.

Oh, Come On Ryan

Last night while doing the Red Carpet thing, Robert stopped in to chat with Ryan Seacrest (it looks like he has a little broadcast booth set up there). Ryan asked THE question, not sure why he had to do that. I love me some Ryan Seacrest and love how he loves the Twilight Saga, but he knew he wasn't supposed to go there and I just can't understand why he felt the need to anyway. Watch the clip here....

Stephenie Meyer about Vampires: We're on a Break

Stephenie addresses the Midnight Sun issue.....

To address the many, many questions about Midnight Sun:

I've found that there really isn't any answer I can give that changes the substance or tenor of the myriads of requests, pleadings, and demands I get for Midnight Sun to be finished, so I feel a little silly answering that question at all. But it's the most popular question, so I'll take another stab at it.

I am not working on Midnight Sun now. I don't have a plan for when I'll get to it; I don't know now what the right time for it will be.

In your questions, there were some erroneous conclusions about the situation which I'll try to set straight. First, Midnight Sun is not finished and locked in a safe, waiting for me to be done angsting over the leak. If it were done, I would be throwing it on the bookstore shelves myself. I'd love to be able to give it to all the people who are anxiously waiting for it. Second, I am not upset about the leak. I haven't been for a long time; I was over it after about three weeks. Third, and most important, I am not trying to punish anyone. Not the persons who leaked it, not the people who read the leak, nobody. As I said, it would make me very happy to be able to give it to anyone who wants it.

So why the hold up? Because it's not finished and lying in a safe. It's not done, and finishing it is not a simple matter of sitting down in front of my computer and typing out the words; the words have to be there in my head to type out, and right now, they're not. I have to be in the zone to write any story, and trying to force myself into that zone is a waste of time, I've found. I'll get back to Midnight Sun when the story is compelling to me again. Just because people want it so badly does not make it more write-able; kind of the opposite, actually. I need to be alone with a story to write, and Midnight Sun feels really crowded, if you know what I mean.
People write for different reasons. I have always written to make myself happy. If I'm enjoying a story, feeling the creativity flow, engrossed in a world, then I write and I write fast. If I'm not into it, I can't write. I've never been someone who writes on demand and I can't imagine working that way. As cool as it would be to say to my favorite author, "You know, I'd really like to read a great book about a narwhal mafia. Write that for me, 'kay?" or even "I'd love a sequel to that last one," that's not how it works. How it works is that my favorite author writes a new book about whatever he/she is interested in. Maybe it takes a year, maybe it takes five. If it's something I want to read, I buy it or I check it out at the library. If not, I find something else to read. The end.

(All of this goes for writing about vampires in general, too. Vampires and I? We're on a break.)

I'm pretty sure this won't slow the pleadings and the demands, but I didn't want you to think I was ignoring the question.

In the meantime, there are so many great books out there. I've got some recommendations on my site, and any librarian would love to show you more options. Same goes for independent bookstore employees. Ask for guidance, and they will fill your arms with awesomeness!

Stephenie Wanted Blue October

As most of you reading this know I am a little obsessed with Blue October. The fact that they are a part of the world of the Twilight Saga (as one of Stephenie's musical inspirations) makes me amazingly happy. Also most of you would agree that BO's music is probably most associated the feelings and some scenes in New Moon (Hate Me, Into the Ocean). AND Stephenie & Justin Furstenfeld (lead singer & songwriter for BO) toured together talking about the influence of music on her writing!

The thing is Blue is noticeably absent from the New Moon Soundtrack.

I am pleased to find out that Stephenie wanted them there, too. We are not sure if they were asked and declined or not approached at all. LOL Somehow thinking it was Blue's choice not be on the Soundtrack makes me feel all better.

Here's a Q&A from her site...

Hi Stephenie, I know that your writing is inspired a lot by the music you listen to, so my question is how much say did you have in the music that was picked for the movie/soundtrack? Thank you! - Marci P.

Not a ton. I had a short wish list, and I got one wish out of the four, and that's really a lot when you think about it. My answered wish: a Muse song. My wishes that were not granted: a Blue October song, a Marjorie Fair song, and a Motion City Soundtrack song. All of these artists were a big part of the New Moon writing process for me, and I would have liked to see them included, but in the end, the soundtrack is truly amazing, so I don't have any complaints.

News

There has been SO much New Moon in the new lately that I just couldn't report on all of it! I bet there are hundreds of interviews and videos from the past two weeks. I don't really understand why they make the actors and director do all this media stuff. New Moon was already everywhere I can't imagine this media blitz will being any more fans to the movie. :-) But I can't say I really mind an opportunity to listen to Rob speak. LOL Here are a few things...

New Moon Soundtrack: Monsters by Hurricane Bells

There have been a lot of news reports, articles, interviews, etc with the artists on the New Moon Soundtrack; too much for me to report it all here. However, I am going to post this for two reasons 1) It discusses how the music works into the movie, which is very interesting to me and 2) Becky & I saw Longwave perform as the opening act for Blue October back in May (the lead singer from Longwave is Hurricane Bells). Funny story...After the concert, the lead singer, Steve Schiltz spend a lot of time outside in the area where the fans were waiting for Justin & the boys from Blue October to come out. He was loading their equipment and stuff into a trailer parked in front of the theatre....right where Blue October's bus was going to park. Needless to say, Becky & I were not his biggest fans as it approached 12:30 am and he was still lingering around blocking the parking spot LOL. Now here he is on the New Moon soundtrack!! It's a small world. Just in case anyone is wondering, he did eventually leave and the Blue October Bus parked there, and YES we did get to meet and get autographs from Blue October.

Ok thanks for indulging me, check out the article Hurricane Bells: The little band that could

New Moon: "Behind the Scenes with the Wolf Pack" & "Birthday Kiss"

This first video is a behind the scenes look at the Wolf Pack including the CGI. I find this incredibly interesting. And I stinking LOVE the wolf clips at the end, I think they have really done justice to them and brought them to life in an amazing way.

Now for an extended look at the Birthday Kiss. I'm not sure what to say about this except if you're Team Edward turn up your volume and enjoy what you will hear after the cheesey announcer voice. :-) (Note: it seems that Summit has been pulling these down so this video may not be here long)

GREAT New Moon Movie Clip Revealed!!!

So a new clip from NEW MOON was shown on ET last night and it was great BUT have you seen the one on iTunes...in HD??? If you have or use iTunes be sure to check it out it is well worth it - really I did a little happy dance when I watched it today! For those of you who may not use iTunes here's a link to the video on YouTube. I am not going to embed it because it definitely is breaking all the copyright laws and I don't want to get into trouble. The quality isn't great, but you'll still get to see it!!

New Moon Soundtrack

Sorry I'm a day late on posting this, work has kept me busy :-(

GREAT NEWS!! The New Moon Soundtrack is being released early! Instead of waiting for Tuesday the 20th , you can pick up your copy on Friday, October 16. I am pretty darn happy about that!

You can listen to the soundtrack at various places on the web now. I am waiting for my iTunes download before I listen to it, with the exception of the 2 songs already available on iTunes (Satellite Heart & Meet Me On the Equinox). I am loving those 2.

So far the reviews have been really good. Lots of critics were surprised to find how much they enjoyed it.

Have you listened to it yet?? What do you think of it?

Meet Me On The Equinox Video

MTV debuted the video for Death Cab For Cutie's Meet Me On The Equinox (from the New Moon Soundtrack) tonight. It's a great song, very fitting, and a good video which reveals some new clips from the MOVIE!!!!

Here's the video (a short intro may play before it), I happen to LOVE it! I will be posting some screen caps shortly.

Death Cab For Cutie - New Music - More Music Videos

A First Look at Sam's Fiancee Emily

Looks pretty good.

Bella Has a Cullen Crest Ring???

Hot Topic has revealed a LOT of new New Moon merchandise. You can check it all out on their website.

There are some very interesting things this time around, but one really caught my eye... The "Bella's Cullen Crest Ring". I am fairly certain this did not make an appearance in the books, and if it did, it wasn't in New Moon. So what are your thoughts on what this is all about?? Maybe in a dream sequence?

Oh, I lied, there are two that really caught my eye. The second was the "Edward Masen Ring". I am assuming this will be seen in a flashback. Go ahead pat me on the back for figuring that one out. Of course you never know what they might do with it.

"Twilight and Philosophy" Author Signing & Event

The Wilkes-Barre (Arena Hub) Barnes & Noble will be hosting a "Twilight and Philosophy" Author Signing & Special Event this weekend. The event will take place on Saturday, October 3 at 2:00 pm.

"Twilight and Philosophy" was recently featured in a Twilight Examiner article... Rebecca Housel (a writing and literature professor at Rochester Institute of Technology) and J. Jeremy Wisnewski (an Assistant Professor of Philosophy who also wrote Family Guy and Philosophy: A Cure for the Petarded, The Office and Philosophy: Scenes from the Unexamined Life, X-Men and Philosophy: Astonishing Insight and Uncanny Argument in the Mutant X-Verse, and other academic books) have created Twilight and Philosophy: Vampires, Vegetarians, and the Pursuit of Immortality. Twilight and Philosophy has just been released in paperback on Amazon.com, and it promises to address questions such as "What can vampires tell us about the meaning of life?" and "Is Bella a feminist?"

The book is available at Barnes & Noble and it sounds like they will be speaking and/or discussing the it. The information that appears on BarnesandNoble.com is included below.

(Note: I have not read this book, there is one review on B&N website and it is positive)

Twilight and Philosophy: Vampires, Vegetarians, and the Pursuit of Immortality with William Irwin and Rebecca Housel

Author Signing, Special Event

New Moon Posters

Three new New Moon posters were recently revealed by Summit.

Bella & The Cullens (hmmm the embrace is a little 'over the top' for New Moon, looks more Breaking Dawn-ish to me)

The Wolf Pack - I think this is great, the wolf pack seems perfect to me.

The Volturi - I'm still just not sure about the Volturi, waiting to see them in the film.

What do you think?? Which one is your favorite?
