NEPA TwilightMoms Get Together

A few of us got together last weekend at Beverly's house (Thanks Bev!) - we had a great time and of course lots of good food to eat :-)


Beverly cracked open her Twilight Board Game, it's based on the Twilight Movie. We had a really good time making up our own rules and even learned a thing or two. Do you know Bella's house number?? What was the subject of Biology class on the day Bella & Edward first met?? Oh and here's one I bet you'll never guess...How do you kill a vampire?

New Moon Paperback - Movie Cover UPDATE

NewMoonMovie.org is reporting the following regarding the New Moon Paperback Cover....
New Moon Book Cover Update: Two New Editions

The mass-market movie tie-in New Moon paperback will have a cover that is a modified version of the New Moon poster, as we first reported correctly, not erroneously as others indicated.

What does this news mean for the “Team Jacob” special edition of New Moon featuring all-new art and a pull-out poster? That edition will be coming out as a trade paperback on September 15th, with the version seen above arriving just before the movie on October 27th.

Both the “Movie Poster” version and “Team Jacob” version with pull-out poster are available for pre-order now.

New Moon Paperback - Movie Cover

It is being reported on several fansites that this will be the cover for the paperback edition of New Moon to be released in conjunction with the movie. (Interesting... to me it seems the only difference is that Edward is looking down and somewhat ashamed).


UPDATE: New reports are claiming the first cover was a fake and that this is the real one. Hmmm I am not sure what to make of that. Not really feeling this cover.

Hopefully this is the last update :-) Entertainment Weekly was the one who released the second picture, they are claiming it is an EW exclusive. I think it is safe to say that the second one is the real one.

How Many Walk Among Us??

Yesterday my sister Becky and I were at the local library dropping off some book donations. Becky happened to be wearing her Twilight shirt which lead to us meeting a fan! (love when things like that happen) She works at the Library, is currently reading 'Twilight' and is LOVING it. We talked a bit about the books, well more like gushed about how good they were and told her how she had to read them ALL! She mentioned that her teenage daughter informed her that moms weren't supposed to be obsessed with Twilight. YIKES!

Well we told her all about TwilightMOMS and our local group and invited her to visit the blog and join us in our obsession! It made me think....how many other ladies are out there who would love to know they are not alone in their passion for Stephenie Meyer's fabulous world of vampires, werewolves, love and friendship?? If Becky had not had that shirt on we never would have known we were talking to a fellow fan. Interesting, I wonder how many others walk among us?

Buffy (The Vampire Slayer) meets Edward Cullen

I had seen links to this all over the place, but hadn't watched it until today (thanks to Becky!) I was not a Buffy fan, but I think this is fun anyway!

Fans Behaving Badly

Over the course of one week of Rob filming in New York City there have been at least two incidents of fans reportedly behaving badly. Now I don't mean that they were ill intended or wanted to hurt Rob, but they certainly took things a little too far. In one case the Twilight Fans practically attacked Rob, having to be pulled off of him and causing the studio to get a police escort for Rob to go from his trailer to the set and back again.

I know that lots of us love Rob and would love to meet him, but at what cost? Rob has said, and many of his costars have mentioned as well, that he is really afraid of the crowds of obsessed fans. He even fears for his safety when he is in the middle of them. Just look at him in the picture below which was taken immediately after the guards pried the females 'attackers' off of him. So why make him more anxious?

In my opinion if someone is really a fan or admirer they should have enough respect for Rob to give him some space (and peace of mind) and for his work to keep a respectable distance so that he can be on-set without disrupting the project. I think we all want him to be accepted by the Entertainment Industry as a legitimate force and not just as the 'Twilight Vampire with the Obsessed Fans'. Let's face it who is going to want to cast Rob or work with him if they know they have to put up with fans acting up and mobbing the set and the actor?

I know we can do it - fight the urge and give him some space. I say we because let's face it who knows I might behave the exact same way if I came face to face with the one who is "Robert Pattinson". (ahhhh swoon swoon)

Rob Mixes it up with a NYC Taxi?

A lot of reports came out yesterday that Rob was hit by a taxi in New York City. Some said he was trying to escape crazed fans, others that he was just being hurried to his trailer among the crowd of fans after filming scenes for his new Summit movie, Remember Me.


According to the Twilight Lexicon Summit has given an official statement....


“Rob Pattinson is fine, the reports are exaggerated and it was not caused by fans. Production continues ,” according to a Summit spokesperson.

A Bunch of Stuff

We've been pretty slow on Twilight Saga News lately. While we are in post-production on New Moon and most likely pre-production on Eclipse our favorite actors are either taking well deserved breaks or working on other projects. I have basically chosen not to publish all the news/drama related to the actors here and stick primarily to Twilight news. (Notice I say primarily, leaving the door open just a little bit).

BREAKING DAWN GIVEN THE GREEN LIGHT??
A while back in an interview Rob mentioned that Breaking Dawn was going to be made into a movie, however there was no confirmation from Summit. Now it's Ashley Green's turn. The press has been hounding her about the rumored Rob/Kristen off-screen relationship (which btw I think is pretty crappy of them to keep asking her about). In one response, she made a comment which indicates that she is under the impression there will be a fourth movie. Still there is no official comment by Summit.

EDWARD'S BIRTHDAY
Our beloved vampire will be celebrating a birthday on Saturday! Anybody remember just how old he will be turning??

NEW MOON SOUNDTRACK
We still have NO official news on who will be serenading us on the New Moon Soundtrack. Reports continue to pop up claiming everyone from Kelly Clarkson to the Jonas Brothers to Jackson Rathbone's 100 Monkeys. I am really starting to get curious!! If I remember correctly Catherine gave the first hint about the Twilight Soundtrack last year at Comic Con, when she hinted about Rob being on there.

TWITTER
If you are on Twitter you can find several Twilight cast members there and a few of them are running contests to gain more followers. Peter Facinelli has a bet going on and really needs to get a lot more followers by Friday midnight, Gil Birmingham is recruiting, Billy Burke wants to poll you about Charlie's mustache and Rachelle Lefevre is going to donate to charity for every 10,000 followers she gets. Check 'em out and give them a hand!


OH YEAH ONE MORE THING
Let's leave this post on a beautiful note. People is releasing it's "Most Eligible Bachelors" edition. Kellan Lutz (Emmett) comes in at #5 (pictured at at Wild West Photo Shoot with one of his 90210 cast mates).

Robert Pattinson (Edward) lands at #10. I am guessing the fact that Rob is stalked, attacked and basically harassed whenever he walks out in public could affect his eligibility ranking - I mean who would want to date someone like that? LOL (I am of course being sarcastic!) This picture of Rob just made me die a little bit.
