Apologies for the lack of updates yesterday.

Catherine Hardwicke talks about her experience filming Twilight and why she’s not doing New Moon. KTKA with the full story.

Recession Fuels Readers’ Escapist Urges by NY Times:

Such escapist urges are also fueling sales of science fiction and fantasy, said Bob Wietrak, a vice president for merchandising at Barnes & Noble. Mr. Wietrak said sales of novels with vampires, shape shifters, werewolves and other paranormal creatures were “exploding,” whether they were found in the romance, fantasy or young-adult aisles, where Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series continues to dominate and inspire look-alike books like the House of Night teen novels by P. C. Cast and Kristin Cast.

UK is advertising the golden eyes to promote the Twilight DVD. NBC Los Angeles with the report.

A new interview with Jackson Rathbone from Examiner. Read Part 1 & Part 2 respectively.

100 Monkeys

Jackson Rathbone, star of Twilight and The Twilight Saga: New Moon is a man who wears many hats. The talented star, who plays Jasper (Whitlock) Hale in the Twilight series films is an actor, a musician, and, it appears, a comedian of sorts.

I had an interview with Jackson, who was ranked in thetop ten of the IMDb STARmeter last week, where he candidly shared details about his rise to fame, his current projects, and his future, and added a little humor to the mix along the way.

You can take a first look at Jackson Rathbone on the set of Criminal Minds at New Moon Movie.org :D

About Robert Pattinson, Phil Taylor says, “I had no idea that Robert was an actor. I’ve still not seen any of his films. I just knew that he is a great musician and a very good singer/song-writer.

Lastly, Everglow has new InStyle OUTTAKES! Thank you Everglow!

Twilight Singapore and NLB collaboration

mailgooglecom1

Yesterday, we had an outing together with National Library Board and it was fun, even though only a few Twilighters came, the programme that was organised by NLB was fruitful and enjoyable.

The programme yesterday, was not really Twilight related, though we did include a short book discussion at the end. But we learned how to make applique (revamping your own plain shirt or bag) so that it looks new and you won’t have to throw it away. And we definitely learned how to make your own jewellery!  Two of our Twilighters managed to make their own Cullen boys cuff using car tyre!

It was definitely a useful and enjoyable experience as we learned how to recylced materials that we throw away to make something out of it or to make something bland to something pretty and new. So we hope that if there’s another event with NLB, you can join us! =)

Here are the pictures from yesterday:

Kristen Stewart: Still Indie At Heart by The Star.com:

“I had tunnel vision and I wasn’t paying attention,” she says.

Then Stewart showed up for a book signing in Rome and was given a reception that literally left her rocking and reeling, the crowds were so big and intense.

“While we were exiting the building, I couldn’t get to the car,” she recalls. “I was dragged by security. I wasn’t even on my own feet. I was thrown into a van because if they hadn’t done it, I would’ve gotten … I don’t know what.

Q&A with Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene.

Q: Are your characters people that you’d like to hang around with in real life?

A: I guess! They’re the coolest characters ever! Both of our characters are! Both our characters are just so kind of happy to be alive and just so happy and really sweet. Emmett’s a big goof-ball and Alice is just so sweet and cute. What she can do is awesome. It would be really cool to have her as a best friend. And yeah, our characters just both totally love life and I would totally hang out with them.

K: I think you’re my best friend! I love my character. I got so lucky with Emmett. It’s great to act as a character who loves life as much as I do, and life is just so short, why not have fun every second that you can? That’s what I try to bring to the role of Emmet, he’s just a big teddy bear that I love to play.  I’d love to have a best friend like him.

7 things you need to know about ‘New Moon’ Wolf Alex Meraz by Celebuzz. Some pretty interesting facts about this one. So check it out.

Alex Meraz (Celebuzz Breakdowns 7 Things About Him)

HE’S GONE FROM ‘NEW WORLD’ TO ‘NEW MOON’: Meraz’s first big film was New World as one of the Powhatan core warriors. “That’s kind of where he got the bug,” says fellow New World cast member Trujillo. “It was an incredible experience.”

Meraz was in the running, but was turned down for Apocalypto: ”Mel felt he didn’t look Mayan enough, which was silly.” says Trujillo who was cast. “I don’t look Mayan either, but they put a prosthetic nose on me and I looked plenty Mayan.”

 Larry Carroll will be covering Las Vegas Showest 2009.

Welcome to ShoWest, the annual convention in Las Vegas where theater owners, studios and journalists come to meet up and talk about all the big films of the next few months. I’ve already taken some pictures of all the various posters, from the best (“Terminator Salvation” has a really badass standee) to the worst (Nia Vardalos in a quasi-sequel to “My Big Fat Greek Wedding,” a half-decade too late?) to the uneventful (the “New Moon” poster is so plain that I found it over in a corner of the hallway, leaning against the wall virtually unnoticed).

The Twilight star arrived after the Universal Music bash was in full swing, then grabbed a martini and some food – much to the delight of many of the waitresses working the soiree.

My girlfriend and I were lucky enough to chill with some “vampires” a couple of weeks ago. The guys were very friendly and flirty (especially the guy that plays Emmett) and quite possibly drunk. Seriously cool guys.

Hollyscoop has an article on Twilight being the Top Selling Release of 2009.

MTV with Vampire Showdown: James Marsters on Buffy’s Spike VS Twilight’s Edward:

 But when it comes to showdown, Marsters had to admit that it’s going to be a pretty close fight.

“Hmmm..,” preceded a long pause as he seemed to really consider the situation in detail, “Edward seems to be a character who’s good at fighting but is trying to find the other areas of experience. Whereas Spike was addicted to fighting. That’s how he defined himself. I would think that Spike has a little more experience. He probably has a few fights up his belt.”

There’s a great interview of Robert Pattinson from Greece’s Free Magazine sent in by a reader at robsessedpattinson.com

c2acc39fc2bfac2acp0001

Here’s an excerpt from the interview:

How was your life before getting the role of Edward Cullen?

Last year I had a great apartment in Soho where you could go to the roof and watch the great view. I played music and I tried to record it. But then I went to Spain for the movie “Little Ashes” and everything changed. It was the first time that I was researching about something. I haven’t seen the movie yet but either if it’s bad or good, it surely changed the way I feel about acting and made me more obedient about what I can achieve of acting when I see the scripts. 

How did you pay for a big apartment in Soho?

It wasn’t big. Actually, it was the smallest you’ve ever seen and it was empty. It only had two garden chairs and nothing else. No carpet, no heating, no bathroom. I had to go to my parents’ house to take a bath. But it was perfect. I thought my lifestyle was bohemian. I was sad when I left it.

Why did you leave it?

Because there are some renovations in London and the rent raised 5.000 pounds. I was in U.S.A. for a whole year because of the filming of Twilight. I was practically paying for an apartment that my friends were living in. So I left it.

Where do you live now?

Nowhere.

Are you excited that you’re going to be a “vampire” for the next ten years?

Yes but that’s not going to last so much because vampires aren’t getting old. So I can’t do it for more than the next two years. It will be ridiculous.”

Check out the rest of the interview here. Thanks a heap to robsessedpattinson.com!

Get Inspired!

twilightinspirations

Twilight Singapore is always on a lookout for our very own Twilighters to get crafty, compose their own Twilight-inspired music and much more!

Having said that, Melissa, one of our Twilighters, is encouraging more local Twilighters to write their own fanfictions – Twilight fanfictions to be exact. Who knows – you might get your fanfictions featured here on our website! However, one can still write fanfictions based on other fandoms, etc.

Twilight Big Bang, a community at Livejournal is currently hosting a fanfiction challenge:

What is a Big Bang, you might ask?

Big Bangs are long-fic challenges. The idea is to write at least 20,000 words of one fic. It’s written over several months. We’ll be writing during May, June, and July, and then your fics will be posted sometime in September.

(Fics that have been already posted – in whole or as a WIP – would not be eligible for the challenge. Fics that you have already finished writing, or have written major chunks for, are also not eligible.)

You definitely can write about anything Twilight – as long as at least one of your main characters appears somewhere in the Twilight canon, you’re golden.

You could, for example, write about Bella and Edward after Breaking Dawn. You could write an AU. You could write a Cullen’s backstory. You could write about the apocalypse. You could write about the pack. You could write about the Volturi. You could write a threesome Emmett/Rosalie/Jasper story. You could write about Victoria, James, and Laurent before they met their fate with the Cullens. You could write about BELLA IN SPACE. Literally, anything is up for grabs. Any kink, pairing, or rating.

A Big Bang is not a fic exchange – you’re not writing for anyone else, just yourself. And the fun of it! :)

We do hope that the Big Bang will inspire you to start writing your very own fanfictions!  If you’re interested to read more fanfictions, FanFiction.net do host lots of them. You can also visit Melissa’s Fanfiction page to read hers! :D

Lainey has exclusive New Moon set pictures…or rather pictures from La Push scenes.

Jacob Black & Bella Swan in La Push Scene

These are exclusive on set photos of Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner as Bella and Jacob shooting scenes in what’s supposed to be La Push yesterday for New Moon.

As you can see, they’re both wearing wigs. Movie making magic! And I always thought her hair was that thick and lustrous! There’d been a lot of questions about whether or not Taylor could grow into the role. From the back, Taylor does look kinda man now. Kristen’s make up is great. Am all over the stain they use on her lips. Gorgeous.

Entertainment Weekly has another article about the New Moon fan-made fake posters. Read it here.

New Moon Fanart Posters

So, you guys, these two new teaser posters for the new Twilight Saga movie New Moon (pictured) are totally moody and sexy and aMAZing!  

According to Kristen, New Moon will be much more tragic than Twilight. Read the full thing here.

“It’s a different movie, a lot happens,” says Stewart of the film in which her character, Bella, suffers the greatest loss of her teenage life: her intense vampire lover, Edward Cullen.

“She loses him, which is certainly a crazy concept for me to accept because that’s the basis for the entire first movie.”

“She grows up, quite a bit. She’s forced to, and she’s got strength and inner determination. A lot of people in her situation would be like, OK, done.”
