Twilight/New Moon News

tMF wrote an article on Robert Pattinson and the papparazzi that has been following him around.

Since March 2008, tMF and Pattinson Online have been affiliates. A lot of big things has happened but practically nothing has changed post Twilight era – only that Robert Pattinson is now the world’s most popular actor and from a few Rob fansites (I know of only 3 back then) there are now dozens of sites and blogs competing, promoting and breathing Rob Pattinson. But what makes this particular site different? My friend Isabel, one of the partners and its PR Director has this to say:

What sets our site apart from the plethora out there, according to our fans: our no rumour, no paparazzi policy, our Pattycast, and the Pattinson Online Network. Pattinson Online has been and continues to be the only Robert Pattinson website that is both rumour and paparazzi free. We do not believe that Robert’s privacy has to be breached or his image compromised for us to gain significant hits. On the contrary, we believe we have become more popular as a result.  Fans write to us by the multitudes, daily, to let us know how much they appreciate a consistent site with reliable news. That is what we see ourselves as – not so much a fansite, but a very reliable source for Robert Pattinson news. We verify most rumours with Rob’s management before posting anything doubtful. We stay away from pap-filled news outlets as sources and we create great partnerships connections with people in the business.

They teamed up with Pattinson Online who has created a project called F.L.A.N.S. (Fangirl Leaders Against Needless Stalking). You can read the full article on tMF and you can visit Project F.L.A.N.S if you would like to know more about it. It’s a site dedicated to protecting Robert Pattinson’s safety and sanity by educating the fans.

The Twilight magazine (above) can now be bought at Kinokuniya in Singapore! It has nice pics, decent articles and a New Moon poster that has Edward, Bella and Jacob on it. The magazine costs S$18.90! Thanks to our Twimum, Janelene for the info!

Fandango has an exclusive set visit interview with Jamie Campbell Bower who plays Caius in New Moon.

Q. How would you describe Caius’ look?
Campbell Bower: I had a discussion with (costume designer) Tish (Monaghan), and we figured out that Caius probably doesn’t get to go out that much, so… he just steals his clothes from previous victims. The style is nice and smart and sleek and slim and – yeah, I like it. It’s very Italian, and I like the shoes, particularly.

Q. How much is expanded on in the 18th century flashback scenes?
Campbell Bower: A little bit – not very much as far as the Volturi go. It’s awesome. It does look really cool and it will be kind of shocking. I don’t want to go too far and ruin it for anyone.

Q. Are you signed on for Eclipse and Breaking Dawn?
Campbell Bower: I possibly will be coming back for number four. Number three, not at the moment. I don’t think Caius appears at all in number three.

Rotten Tomatoes has their day two report of their New Moon set visit.

“We have wire work, but we’re really trying to not do a lot of it,” he explained. “We don’t want to get into the Hong Kong – floaty stuff that you see all the time, vampires hanging in the air and all of that. It’s a tough call, because wires are wires, and the inherent problem with them is exactly that. They get floaty on you. So we’re having a heck of a time trying to find the balance that gives us enough to make it supernatural without it being over the top.”

Pattinson wore a dark burgundy hooded robe, his chest exposed. And yes, it was impeccably hairless and like alabaster, just as Meyer wrote it. Girls will swoon. Greene stood next to him, wearing a white and gray striped robe and red gloves. Stewart stood between them in black jeans, a short sleeved shirt, and sneakers.

As Pattinson rushed forward, wires attached to his clothing were rigged to jerk him back the moment that Jane’s attack — an invisible psychosomatic blast of pain — hit him. He grimaced in pain as the camera closed in, neck muscles straining with effort. Finally, he fell to his knees before collapsing on the ground with a loud thud.

Behind the stage, Meyer and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg sat together, nodding in agreement. It looked good on the monitors.
