Eclipse News – Eclipse Cast in New York

Thanks to Rachel!

Here’s a video from Access Hollywood with Kristen and Taylor in New York – attending the Cinema Society’s Advance Screening of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse


ECLIPSE NEWS – Eclipse Producer on the Rob-Kristen REAL LIFE Romance

QUOTE OF THE DAY

The thing I do think about is, Oh my God, I hope they stay together.

And with that Wyck Godfrey has outed Kristen & Robert in a TIME MAGAZINE Interview.

Everyone is talking about whatever is going on between Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. Is that good for business?
Do you want the honest answer? I haven’t even thought of it that way.

That’s not the honest answer.
It really is. I honestly don’t think of it in terms of business. It doesn’t affect our core business at all. The thing I do think about is, Oh my God, I hope they stay together. Because it could be awkward on set in the next movie if they have a huge falling out. It’s like, Wow, they have to portray this love story through two more movies. God, I hope they stay together; please stay together. That’s what affects my day-to-day. 

But you walk by newsstands and it’s a publicist’s dream: they are on every cover.
I don’t feel it’s out there anymore. Do people still report on it? If you look at people who have a stable personal life, the rags get tired of them. I think we’re heading to that place where they are together and that’s their life and we better find someone new to create drama out of.

Eclipse News – Moviefone’s Twilight Night VIDEO/ The Making of Eclipse’s Fight Scenes

On Saturday night there were Twilight Events all over the US. Some fans watched Twilight & New Moon under the star especially with the Lunar Eclipse – it would have been a magical Twilight night. Cast members of the Eclipse dropped by these events and spent time with the fans.

Check out Moviefone’s coverage of Twilight Night

Johnathan Eusebio has the job to coordinate the fight scenes in The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. LA Times has this interview with him.

The Canadian-born son of two nurses, Eusebio moved to California as a third-grader and took up taekwondo, boxing, judo and several other martial arts a few years later. “When I was growing up, I used to watch a lot of Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung,” Eusebio said. “Hung is one of Jackie’s seniors, and he’s a famous martial artist in Hong Kong and China. The way I see choreography is influenced by those guys.”

Lively up yourself: While the previous “Twilight” installments may have been more focused on emotions, the third movie packs a real punch. “It wasn’t a fight-intensive series to begin with, but the third one is starting to get a lot of battles,” Eusebio said “There’s a big sequence when the Cullens have to train for fighting [another group of] vampires. There’s a big charge at the end where the Cullens have to fight all the newborn vampires. And then there’s a big scene where Edward has to fend off Victoria and her new lover Riley. So this movie has a lot of action going on in there.”

Art versus life: Eusebio calls film fighting “an entirely differently monster than actual, real fighting. It’s the same basics, but the movement and the philosophy of the movement are different. In film fighting, it looks like there’s contact, but there’s no contact. You want to hide your movements in real fighting. In movie fighting, you have to make everything long so the camera can see it as well as the audience. It’s like choreography, like a dance between the two combatants.”

Supersize it: Vampires present their own set of challenges. “You want to keep everything kind of realistic in tone to avoid making it look too superhero-ish, but the thing is they are superhuman,” Eusebio said. “Everything is exaggerated. So when they throw someone, the impacts are huge. When they chase somebody, they’re super fast. When they jump, they jump a little higher. We try to do creative camera work; we try to do wires; and we might have to use visual and special effects to help us out.”

“But to me, Eclipse is really about Bella having come to the decision that she is absolutely going to become a vampire and she begins to really evaluate what that’s going to cost her.”

Melissa Rosenberg

Eclipse was the hardest of the three to write,” adds Rosenberg. “I thought it would be the easiest because it has all this great action. When I actually got to writing it, I realised that the action’s only in the third act. So, it was about pulling the action and the tension into the rest of the movie. So it actually ended up being the most challenging of the three and actually my favourite script.”

David Slade

“Eclipse is one of the broader stories. I think New Moon was very sophisticated in its involvement of emotions between the three characters. But what I wanted to do with Eclipse, because it had so many larger scale stories, was to go for a more cinematic approach to the film. Eclipse is packed with story and lot of epic things that happen. It’s a big thick book. So, I felt that this particular film had to have a really cinematic edge to it”

Robert Pattinson

“Its much more action-oriented. New Moon is a very internal film and moves at a very different pace. Eclipse is much more frantic and there needs to be more immediacy about everything, which David likes. Plus, I think the tone is a lot harsher. The fight scenes in this are much more scrappy and feral.”

TWILIGHT NEWS – LA TIMES ARTICLE: WHEN ‘TWILIGHT’ FANDOM BECOMES ADDICTION

Here’s some food for thought.

For the latest illustration of “Twilight” mania, look no further than the hundreds of fans who pitched tents and slept outside for days in front of the Nokia Theatre in downtown Los Angeles in hopes of catching a glimpse of one of the stars at Thursday’s red-carpet premiere for “Eclipse,” the latest installment of the franchise, which opens nationwide June 30. “This is the first time I’ve been this passionate about anything,” says Kelli Chavez, a 39-year-old mom who drove in from Sylmar. “I’ve read each of the books at least eight or nine times and I’ve watched each of the movies over 300 times apiece.”

Chavez doesn’t hesitate when asked whether anyone in her life resents her passion for “Twilight.” “My 6-year-old son,” she says soberly. “I definitely need to go to Twilighters Anonymous about it.”

There is a Twilighters Anonymous, but it’s not a 12-step group. Rather, it’s a website for fans who want to feed their habit, not kick it. But an increasing number of confessionals have been popping up on community forums from women concerned about their tendency to neglect important aspects of their daily lives to dip into the fantasy that is Stephenie Meyer’s operatic saga about Bella (Stewart, in the films), a small-town everygirl whose je ne sais quoi mojo attracts the warring affections of a pair of metaphysical hunks: a vampire, Edward (Pattinson), and a werewolf, Jacob ( Taylor Lautner).

… Though it may be characteristically melodramatic of “Twilight” junkies to connect late-night reading jags to a future stint in the Betty Ford Clinic, there’s no doubt that the franchise does not lend itself to casual interest. To know “Twilight” is to love it or to loathe it, with not much room in between. No series of book-to-film adaptations, with the notable exceptions of “The Lord of the Rings” and ” Harry Potter” franchises, has captured the popular imagination with such enduring intensity. Worldwide, “The Twilight Saga” has sold around 100 million books, and the first two movies alone have grossed more than $1.1 billion.

… “If you take away ‘Twilight’ and put in a football team, this doesn’t look so much different from what guys have been doing for decades,” says Baym. “They stay up late at night looking at statistics and playing fantasy football. You could just as easily say they’ve lost touch with reality or that they’re addicted. ‘Twilight’ is just a story women are engaging with passionately, so people say it’s dysfunctional. On the other hand, maybe men’s relationship with football is dysfunctional as well.”
