Sorry!!!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I have been really busy. First, my computer was acting really stupid and I couldn't get it to post anything and then I was too busy celebrating the release of Twilight to have any self control to sit down at the computer and type. Thankfully, I got my control back!!! :) Also, in case you didn't know, TWILIGHT IS IN THEATERS!!! Again sorry and that's why there will be so many posts for today!

Twilight on Ellen!!!

That's right Twilight will be on the TV show Ellen on November 21st!!! Great timing right!!! So far, only Rob is scheduled to come, but there's still enough time to schedule more cast. Also, don't have any hopes of Twilight being on Oprah because she thought that Twilight would be a stupid topic to have on her show! Lets see if she feels the same way when it breaks box-office records!!!! So set up your recorders for November 21st because most everyone won't be home, they'll be camping out at movie theaters or crashing from the night before!!!!

Big News!!!!

Catherine Hardwicke (director) was doing an interview today with MTV and accidently slipped and said something she shouldn't have. She told all the Twilight fans that she filmed a scene from the on-hold book Midnight Sun, and that it's on the Twilight DVD as a deleted scene!!! Something to look forward to right!!! Also, on the subject of Twilight DVDs, there will be 12 deleted scenes on the DVD that unfortunately had to be cut to keep the movie under 2 hours!!!!

Kristen Interview!!!!

Recently, Kristen did an interview with WWD (Women's Wear Daily) where she talks about how she got started and about Twilight:

KRISTEN STEWART
Kristen Stewart didn’t intend to become an actress. She got a call from an agent out of the blue after the then-eight-year-old sang a song in her elementary school’s Christmas show. Her script supervisor mother and stage manager father had some reservations at first: “They were like, ‘Really? This is something you want to do? Because you know what hell this is,’” she remembers. “I guess I was steadfast.” Last year, she was in Into the Wild, as the dreamy hippie who falls for Emile Hirsch’s character. This fall, the 18-year-old is starring as Bella Swan in the film version of the first of Stephanie Meyer’s cult vampire books Twilight.

PRESSURE COOKER: The huge fan base of Twilight has taken Stewart by surprise. “I sort of figured it would always stay like a cult movie, because Catherine Hardwicke directs good indies. It seemed like it would be not that big of a deal. It has turned out to be the opposite.”

SHE GOES HER OWN WAY: Because of erratic shooting schedules, Stewart opted for an independent-study program rather than regular high school, and has put college on the back burner for now. “I have had so many demands put on me in such a structured way my entire life that at this point, I need a minute. I don’t need someone telling me what book to be reading,” says the actress, who also would like to pursue a writing career. “I definitely have a future in academics, but not right now.”

UP NEXT: She’ll be back in cineplexes in Adventureland, a comedy set in 1987 from Greg Mottola, the director of Superbad. After that, she will shift gears to play a 16-year-old stripper in the drama Welcome to the Rileys. “I’m going to be such a goofball stripper,” says Stewart.

This isn't the best interview, but we just love to hear from her.

OMG!!! 3rd Trailier!!!

Now we're all Twilight fans and we've all seen the first trailers am I right. Well, get ready to scream your head off because the NEW twilight trailer, the 3rd one that includes new scenes, will be coming out on October 9!!! AHHHH!! Not only will it be showing in theaters and also on tv (Entertainment Tonight will show it on Thursday at 7:00 pm on Channel 8), but it will be online! Here's the even better news. Summit Entertainment, who makes the movie, will be showing an early preview of the trailer. Here's where it will be...on this blog!!! They're showing the trailer on the Twilight Movie E-card Widget at 8:00 PM (that's an hour earlier than when they'll be showing it in HD on Myspace)... I have the widget!! I know your excited!! So at 8:00 PM come back to this blog and watch the new trailer! However, the trailer will only be shown from 8:00 to 9:00. I have been having some technical difficulties with the widget, so if on the night of the premiere it is still not working, go to http://stepheniemeyer.com/twilight_movie.html and watch it there. I don't want anyone to miss the trailer because. . .
THIS TRAILER MEANS THE RETURN OF THE VAMPIRES IS COMING!!!!

Twilight Soundtrack!!!

The twilight movie is going to be awesome, we all know that, and to add to that awesomeness the movie will have a soundtrack. All though this soundtrack was scheduled to come out on October 28 it has been bumped to November 4. :( Although we have to wait for the soundtrack a little bit longer, they have realeased one song by Paramore called "DECODE"(i have the video on my blog). In my opinion it is PERFECTO for Twilight!

You can pre-order the soundtrack here:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001ED7C58?ie=UTF8&tag=stepheniemeye-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B001ED7C58

Prepare to be Mad!!

I'm sure everyone that reads this is going to be yelling at the computer by the time your done. Anyway, Robert Pattinson (Edward), Kristen Stewart (Bella), and Catherine Hardwicke (Director) will be flying to ROME!! Wait, that is not the good part, while in Rome :) they will be reading from Breaking Dawn, answer fan questions, showing never before seen behind the scenes footage, and, get ready for it, showing a 15 minute preview of the movie. That's like one-fourth of the movie!!! Why does it have to be in Rome?!
