Great RPattz Photos - A Purgatory EXCLUSIVE!

My sister's friend (who is in the media) snapped these after the MTV awards last month. I love the one with his hands on his neck. You know he's freaked out by all the fans. Well Clarice, have the lambs stopped screaming?

11 Days til 100 Days til New Moon

IT IS ON!

He said / She said

This Rachelle Lefevre thing is really heating up. Apparently there are now lawyers involved. Yesterday, Rachelle issued a statement that she was well within her contract when she signed on to do an indie flick during the filming of Eclipse - which would have taken 10 days to film. Summit issued a statement saying that was BS and they weren't informed about her other engagement until well into July. Hmmm.... Either way - I like her a lot and it kindof sucks she won't be in Eclipse. They ousted her - plain and simple. And she has really earned the right to be in this film after a stellar performance in Twilight - and all the promoting she's done over the past two years. BUT - flip side - I'm thinking she shouldn't have issued that statement. As much as she's trying to let the world (and the Twilight community, of which I am a proud, Edward Cullen-loving member) know what really went down, I fear she's going to get a bad rap with the Hollywood community for dissing Daddy. Just my .02.

Direct quote from Nikki Reed

"Rob is sort of feminine looking and I think young girls like boys that look like women," she said.

OUCH!!!! Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

Dear Rob, SHUT UP! Love, Carol

Ugh this is bad. Robert Pattinson needs to SHUT IT!!! When are these actors' PR people going to friggin SCHOOL THEM on acting appropriately with the media??? Let's review. Stephenie Meyer has had the top 4 spots on the sales charts for the past 6 months with the 4 Twilight saga books. Why? I'll tell you why. Because the world LOVES EDWARD CULLEN. And the one person in this world we look to for a VISUAL of Edward Cullen is Rob Pattinson. And what does he do? He TRASHES Edward Cullen. Stupid stupid stupid.

Can anyone tell me why both Kristen Stewart AND Robert Pattinson insist on offending Twilight fans? Please? PRETTY PLEASE? Cuz I sure can't figure it out.

BETTER New Moon Italy scene

Wow I know I posted this already but this is WAY better video quality. You can see Edward the second he appears and the expression on his face. McSIGH. You truly must watch again (and again and again and again and....)

Bye Bye Rachelle Lefevre??? Hello BRYCE DALLAS HOWARD as Victoria in Eclipse?!

HOLY ^%$#!!!! I don't even know how to feel about this! I will miss Rachelle because I thought she was Awe-some with a capital A. But I really like Bryce Dallas Howard. I canNOT help but wonder if this was a force-out. Bryce Dallas has those eerie eyes. I wonder if the studio thought she'd have more of an impact? Wow. I wonder if they would do that for any of the other actors. (Oh hush. We've ranked on the girl enough this week. ;)

From the Summit website (which could use some major work IMO):

Actress Rachelle Lefevre Will Be Replaced By Howard In The Role Of Victoria

Los Angeles, CA July 28, 2009 — Summit Entertainment announced today that Bryce Dallas Howard will take over the role of "Victoria" in the studio's upcoming production of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE. Actress, Rachelle Lefevre, who portrayed the character in TWILIGHT as well as the upcoming release of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON, will not continue in the role due to scheduling conflicts with another commitment the actor has made. THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE will start filming in Vancouver this coming August.

THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE, the third film in the studio's TWILIGHT film franchise based on Stephenie Meyer's blockbuster book series, will be directed by David Slade from a screenplay written by Melissa Rosenberg. The film will be released theatrically in North America on Wednesday, June 30, 2010.

"We are incredibly happy that Bryce has agreed to come into the franchise," said Erik Feig, Summit's President of Worldwide Production and Acquisitions. "Rachelle brought "Victoria" to great screen life and Bryce will bring a new dimension to the character. The franchise is lucky to have such a talented actress as Bryce coming in to fill the role."

Howard most recently starred in TERMINATOR SALVATION as Kate Connor and has been seen in SPIDER-MAN 3, LADY IN THE WATER, and THE VILLAGE. She was nominated for a Golden Globe for her leading performance as an actress in the HBO film AS YOU LIKE IT.

The New Moon soundtrack is coming!

New Moon soundtrack in stores October 13th! (insert nervous, giddy laughter here) Check out the official info!!

And so it begins...

So I was just joking with Maggie - my way cool, Twilight-digging neighbor, friend and babysitter extraordinaire - about having to start planning my "Eclipse" party after the "100 Days til New Moon" party is over. (Run on sentence, party of 1?) And afterward I got online and discovered the yummy new Eclipse page on newmoonmovie.org. And I got a little giddy. I swear - it's pathetic. New Moon still has 114 days to come out and already I'm movin' on to Eclipse. I suppose it's a new beginning of sorts. A new movie where maybe things will be different. Like Jacob will be more brooding. Edward will be less pissy. And Bella might actually smile. (Nah. Doubt it on that last one.)

THE VOLTURI

I. LOVE. THIS.

Kevin Smith talks Twilight & New Moon at Comic-Con

I. Love. Kevin. Smith. And since I live at the Jersey shore - not far from Red Bank - I pretty much support everything he does. (Well I wasn't too jazzed about the donkey but the overwhelming amount of Kevin Smith goodness out there negated it.) WARNING - bad language abounds in this clip. So please don't watch if you'll be offended... or if I know your parents and they'll be pissed at me at the next town council meeting. ;)

"Giving an interview 101"

The following is an email from my sister, Tracey (who might be a Purgatory commentator if I can get her to agree.) She is RIGHT ON THE MONEY with this. If you're not already watching "True Blood" or reading the Sookie Stackhouse novels, what are you waiting for?

KStew and RPattz--please watch the following video. This is how subjects of a pop culture phenomenon SHOULD act toward the press. Please take notes, as there will be a test later. (Taylor, you performed well the other day and are excused from class.)

And tonight, on a very special New Moon special...

I don't know how to feel about this...

Know why I find this rather interesting?

I came across this little diddy about Rob Pattinson auditioning for Twilight because he dug Kristen Stewart... and I found it interesting. Not because I give a shit whether they're shagging or not. But because Kristen Stewart - the girl with the worst attitude on the planet when it comes to interviews - was picked to be Bella before anyone else was cast. She had major influence about who would play Edward. How is that POSSIBLE? What was she, 16 at the time? This was a major motion picture and they left decisions like that to a kid? And it's not that I don't realize how insightful teens can be. Just the other day, my 13 year old niece Megan said "I don't know why they picked Kristen Stewart to play Bella. She never smiles and she always looks annoyed. Bella's a fun girl. She laughs and she's funny! I don't get it." Well, Meg, I don't get it either. I am tired of dancing around this topic and trying to be nice. IT'S TRUE. Kristen Stewart never smiles while playing Bella Swan! I don't know if it was her decision - or bad direction - but SOMEBODY has got to make Bella smile once in a while. It's completely unbelievable that anyone would like her in the slightest. And believe me - I will understand if she doesn't smile too much in New Moon. I mean, DUH. She was miserable during most of the book. But come ON people. Ugh can you tell I'm still tres annoyed after her Comic-Con antics last week? I'm just utterly disgusted and I don't know if it's going to go away any time soon...

Soundtrack news

Man all the good stuff happens when I go away. I should have had this up days ago. Muse, Radiohead (or just Thom Yorke?), and the new Brit band "Band of Sculls" are confirmed for the New Moon soundtrack. Stay tuned...

For a minute there, I was literally too choked up to type.

I can't even fangirl because I'm in tears. New Moon is my favorite book in the series. Forget the actors... forget the hype. It's the heart-wrenching story that I'm drawn to. Edward leaving just grabs ahold of my heart like some kind of vise... and puts it on immediate lock-down. Seeing him again through Bella's eyes just makes me cry. And much kudos to Rob Pattinson because it looks like he's ridiculously believable as Edward Cullen in this movie. I'd love to hear his reasons for being able to dig down and really feel Edward's pain in New Moon, thus portraying him so well. Maybe if his costars would let him SPEAK in interviews, I'd be able to find out.

Cartoon Edward

Oh man. ohmanohmanohman. I don't know. I don't KNOW. I don't think I like the weird, see-through, hallucinatory Edward. I don't really go for them changing the book in the first place. But look at him! It's like she's passing my cardboard cutout Edward!! He's like... one-dimensional. And it's so weird the way she passes him and then they show him again while she's still moving... almost like an old episode of the Flinstones where Fred was running and passed the same plant 17 times. I just... argh! I don't know!!! PS - I'll tell you one thing I know: Taylor Lautner is going to steal this movie. Mark my words. It's going to be an even playing field on November 20st. Guaranteed.

Roses are red... Violets are blue... Dear Kstew... IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT YOU!

I'm not sure, but this might be THE most annoying interview I've ever had the misfortune of TRYING to watch. Every - and I mean EVERY time Rob Pattinson tries to talk, Kristen Stewart makes fun of him to Ashley Greene and it clearly makes him so uncomfortable he stops what he's saying. I am dumbfounded. Dear Kristen - as much as I like hearing what you have to say, I also like hearing what THE REST OF THE CAST is TRYING to say, too. Please SHUT THE EF UP. Thankssomuch, Carol.

My take on Comic-con:

Sex, Lies and Videotape

OK you know what? Kstew is losing my affections - FAST. Here is what I just emailed Jenn M about my thoughts on her appearance below: "And I don't care if she's jet lagged - or still in Joan character - or just plain constipated. That was bad stage presence and her "people" should have told her to conduct herself otherwise." I believe I also said something to the effect of "Dear Shark Boy, This movie could make or break your career. If I were you, I'd growl. I'd growl all damn day. And I'd like it. Your pal, Carol "

Comic Controversy

This - in a word - rules. Make sure to read the LA times article and read the comments. Priceless. Here's the deal. As much as I feel for these kids who slept overnight to get a good spot - and totally agree with them that people should not be able to cut their spot in line - they need to PIPE THE HELL DOWN about 40 year old women being too old to enjoy Twilight. (Does anyone know how to cast some type of crows feet spell? I'm right now on Book 4 of the Sookie Stackhouse series, and I'm all about the spells.)

WAY cool New Moon photo!

Check it. Alice. Bella. Jacob. The couch. The "omg Aliceeeee" scene. (Click the picture, yo. It gets bigger. And Chris Weitz is in the big one. Srsly.)

I. Love. It. Is Alice's outfit not PERFECTION??? Exactly how I pictured them ALL. This is one of my absolute favorite scenes in the book. Having Alice show up after all that time was almost as good as finding Edward. Almost.

OK so I'm on vaca and having some internet issues so please FORGIVE me for not blogging more often. And if I miss your comments I promise I will respond when I get back!!

No WAY!

My other sister's Edward

So I've mentioned my sister, Tracey is a Twi-dweeb like me. But I haven't mentioned that my other sister - Jill - is also reading the series. She is almost finished "New Moon" (thank you LORD).. and will be starting Eclipse soon so she can finish all four and attend my "100 Days til New Moon" party next month. So anyway... I was a little worried about her interest... but she calls me tonight, and she's all excited, and she blurts out "I found my Edward!" She then proceeds to tell me to go watch the following video of Adam Lambert from American Idol singing "Mad World" from Tears for Fears. She's like "Look at the coat! Look at the fog! He's totally vampire! He even told Ryan Seacrest he was going for a Twilight look!" (Hell even Randy Jackson's yelling "Twilight" while Simon is talking. ) I noted the Fangirl in her voice. Tremendous. And so ladies and gents, it begins. Yet another person is getting hooked. On MY brand of heroin. It's almost sinister the way I love turning people to the dark side....

So what do you think? Edwardesque?

Jimmy Fallon amuses me.

Check out this video from Jimmy Fallon's show where he does a parody of Rob Pattinson and Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) sparring with each other about their movies. The outtakes at the end are hi-LAR-i-ous. The Bella blowup doll is my favorite. Enjoy.

Fresh NEW MOON dirt!

How is it POSSIBLE that I could have read this entire (friggin awesome) MTV interview with Chris Weitz before I noticed THIS MOVIE STILL IS NEW!!!!! I am soooo FANGIRL right now!!!! The BEACH!! The TRUCK!!!

The release of "New Moon" is still roughly four months away, and if you're impatiently tapping your foot as much as we are, we might have an antidote. HitFix recently sat down with "New Moon" director Chris Weitz and got him to spill on the sequel — from soundtrack songs to the film within a film "Face Punch." Here's a brief synopsis of his remarks (POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD):

-Chris is about two weeks away from sending a director's cut of "New Moon" to the studio. He has to have a final cut of the movie ready by, fittingly enough, the day before Halloween (Oct. 30).
-Chris will debut a few new scenes this month at Comic-Con 2009 in San Diego.

-The CGI shot of the wolf from the trailer that premiered during the MTV Movie Awards has gone through 20-30 iterations since, likely to make it look more realistic.
-New potential candidates for the soundtrack include Thom Yorke and Kings of Leon.
-Chris' favorite scene to film was the sequence at Volturi headquarters.
-About the look of the Volturi's lair Chris said, "The first thing I wanted to do was put them in a setting that wasn't Dracula's castle. I feel like that's been done. There have been so many vampire movies and werewolf movies and horror movies where everything has been dark and dreary and everything is blue or green or something like that. Instead, their headquarters is surprisingly light and crisp."
-There will be a proposal scene. I repeat: There will be a proposal scene.
-Though sadly, we won't get to see "Face Punch" the movie within a movie Michael Welch told us about last month. No actual scenes were filmed for it, so movie-goers will only hear the sounds of the faux film.
- Will Chris come back "Breaking Dawn" as fans have been hoping? "I think it's really charming that having not seen 'New Moon' people would be enthusiastic about me wanting to do 'Breaking Dawn,'" he told HitFlix. "That's really -- y'know I think the proof is in the pudding and they should see it before they decide there is anything else they want me to do. But I would hope to earn that kind of rumor. We haven't really spoken with Summit about that."

What do you think about these new "New Moon" details? Do they make you even more excited to see the film come November 20?

When I can speak again, I'll definitely throw a big, ol' YES out there as my final answer.

A-MA-ZING article.

I don't know what impressed me more. Katie Bain's tremendous article on Hollywood.com entitled "15 Things I Learned about Rob Pattinson on the New Moon set", with a complete play-by-play of her day on the New Moon set... Or the fact that she got to spend the day(s?) lurking around the New Moon set. Clearly writing for a large publication - online or off - has its' benefits. Maybe I should quit my day job...

The life of Riley....

Casting Alert. Apparently "Riley" has been cast for Eclipse. The actor's name is Xavier Samuel and he's from Australia. Check out the deets at Risky Business.

I am so fan-girling right now!!!

First, I saw this AMAZING picture and got giddy. Then, I read this tremendous LA Times article from Gina McIntyre and almost fell off my chair. You MUST go - right now - and read the article. It's fanTAStic. And it gives some really great insight into how they're going to insert Edward as a hallucination. It also gives you a great look inside Chris Weitz' mind regarding his adaptation of "New Moon".

GO. FORTH. AND. READ!

Check this out

Great article with video from Amanda over at Twilight Examiner. She's got video of Kellan and Ashley at a TwiTour appearance...(we'll be in Parsippany in August!) and a very cool and artsy video interview with Taylor Lautner.

Inhale. I'm having a Twi-moment.

So last week my sister suggested I submit my blog to Stepheniemeyer.com. I am all kinds of shy about it - probably because my Catholic upbringing pretty much drilled it into my head that everything I do basically sucks. But I digress. So anyway... I found some guts - and emailed Seth, Stephenie's brother and webmaster. And when I didn't get a response I figured they're closed to new links... or they think my blog is silly... etc, etc. Today, however, I happened upon stepheniemeyer.com via a google search for something Twilated... when what to my wandering eyes did appear but MY BLOG LINK - on Stephenie's website. So because of that I say THANK YOU, SETH!! and THANK YOU, STEPHENIE!! I cannot tell you how thrilled I am that my lil-ol blog link is on your fan sites page!!

TAKE A LOOK BELOW EVERYONE! My link is in green! PS - yes - you can see from my screen capture that I actually had to google how to do a screen capture. LOL

WAY cool New Moon footage

OK this is the most bloggable thing to come down the pike in a while. Check out this footage of Kstew and Ashley Greene filming the scene where Bella jumps out of the Porsche and starts running through Volterra. Very, very cool. I don't really get why she stops outside the car and yells "Where?" though. Wouldn't all those details have been worked out while driving through the streets? Whatev. I'm thrilled to see this. Makes me stoked for my "100 Days til New Moon" party in August and even MORE stoked for November 20th! Woot!

Why INDONESIA?!

Why do we have to wait for stuff like this...while Indonesians don't???
*Thanks Twifans!

Help me November 20th... you're my only hope!

Thank you TwilightMoms! Bok Bok!

Hi Edward.

Have you ever put Edward in your window when you were having a barbecue, just to freak out your friends? Cuz I have...

Funny shot

Love it. Ganked it from Laurens Bite. Her blog is my fav. Check it out because she went to Forks recently with her hub, Tedward, and has some key shots. Even the mushroom ravs in Port Angeles. As for RPattz - I have no comment for this photo, I just loved it and felt compelled to post it. (Forget the hands; I am captivated by the teeth.) At any rate, I'd love to hear your thoughts on possible captions...

Breaking Dawn and Dirty

Apparently Summit is confirming they are going to keep Breaking Dawn exactly how it is - a novel filled with grown-up stuff - when they film (this winter?) Which is a good thing because I NEED to see Robert Pattinson with feathers on his head. NEED IT! At any rate, you can take my word for it, or watch this ridiculously annoying video from Ted Casablanca, filled with absolutely NOTHING but a bit too much innuendo and includes more nothingness about Michael Jackson, Anna Farris and Tyra Banks. Yawn. And Ted's rendition of Mr. Rogers changing his clothes and putting on new shoes is old. Been there, seen that. Although I somehow don't remember Mr. Rogers actually coming out of the closet, do you?

Stephenie's still on top!

The USA Today Best Selling Books list came out for the 2nd quarter and - oh gee - look who is STILL ON TOP. (I love this so much because it allows me to get very brazen with the book snobs I know who refuse to read Twilight because their book snob friends won't allow it - while drinking their half caf - half splenda - half chi - half cap - grande espresso at whatever snobby book store they will allow themselves to frequent.) Gee. Stephenie Meyer is. With her four Twilight series books. DIDN'T SEE THAT ONE COMING! (Sarcasm rules, does it not?)

This also reminds me to share with y0u the amusing thing that happened to me at Costco today. While perusing the book section (snort - the "book section" at Costco - see the above coffee comment for why that's funny), I saw a woman standing in front of the Twilight books. She thought quietly to herself for a moment - and then tried to appear as if she were taking a nonchalant look around - before diving headfirst into Breaking Dawn. Truly it happened so fast I thought she might break a nail. Upon realizing she was reading well into the 2nd half, I felt compelled to come to her rescue and make sure didn't read any further if she a) hadn't read the series and b) was planning on reading the series. So I said "Have you read them?" extremely quietly, as many of us over-rabid Twilighters do while we're accosting a possible new follower in public. Naturally, though, she had read them. And I was thrilled to meet yet another TwiBud in the universe. Her exact words were "Yes - I've read them all!" She then scanned the crowd before admitting, "Twice". We had a good giggle before she leaned in even closer and said "if you go to the author's website you'll see (snort - "the author" - as if I haven't been using Stephenie Meyer's name for months as if we grew up next door to each other) at which point I shot her secret offering down from sheer excitement and exclaimed "MIDNIGHT SUN!" At that point we both had the "sigh, she HAS to finish it!" conversation. And - might I say it was her lucky day as she had no idea about the 4 page blurb in the New Moon extras section....where Edward talks about being in that horrible attic in South America and gets the call from Rosalie. I guarantee you she read it upon reentering her dwelling and has alerted all her Twifriends by now.

Ahhh yes. Another day...another Twilight education of strangers. It's great to pass-on the Edward love. *Thanks to USA TODAY for the photo.

A possible Edward for Tracey?

Christian Bale? Like it! On screen, of course. He's one guy I definitely wouldn't want to piss off on the job!

We interrupt this Twilight blog...

While perusing some of my usual Twilight sites, I came across a blurb about Diane Sawyer being on the "Remember Me" set to meet with Rob Pattinson. Apparently she brought her daughter to meet him, too. I guess those of us with homemakers for mothers are just SOL. But I digress. Anyway - while perusing the site, what did appear to my wandering eyes but a photo of a man who is as much my senior as RPattz is my junior. And I was momentarily verklempt - because he is just as much the hottie - if not moreso - than Rob Pattinson, himself. Ladies and Gentle... wait...OK - Ladies, I give you, one of the hottest man on the planet; Pierce Brosnan. Feast thine eyes. *Thanks to gossipcenter.com for the photo.

FEAST your eyes

Check out this graphic I just found on Amanda Bell's Twilight Examiner. (She's good, by the way, you should check her posts out. She actually discusses the books. You know how I love that.) I don't know where it came from - probably one of those sites where people manipulate the graphics. Edward has been flipped and given a white tshirt. Whatev. I was absolutely blown away by this. I am still a bit verklempt. Talk amongst yourselves. I'll give you a topic. The NOVEMBER 20th showdown CAN'T COME FAST ENOUGH!!! Discuss!

Can you help Tracey find her Edward?

So my sister, Tracey has read all the books - and Midnight Sun - and every awesome blurb on stepheniemeyer.com (Edward's knees three inches from his face, much?!) And she STILL doesn't have her very own Edward. I cannot possibly fathom how this could be, since I kept having flashes of a guy I briefly dated in highschool while reading about Edward (Andy Rosenberg; anyone know him?) At any rate - it is now up to us to find Tracey her very own Edward. Here's my first suggestion. None other than Henry Cavill - Stephenie Meyer's alleged pick for Edward Cullen. How about you? Can you suggest an Edward for Tracey??? *Thanks to mediaphotobucket.com for the photo!

New Moon. With Guinea Pig.

Dear Cousin Jenn,

Thank you so much for bringing this New Moon hilarity to my attention. I saw a blurb about this the other day but skipped it, thinking the whole thing involved guinea pigs.

Dang. It is funny. (said remotely with no feeling like the "Bella" in the video.)

Love,
Your crazy-assed, Twilight-addicted cousin Carol
PS - Watch Edward while Bella's bleeding from the paper cut. Spot-on, Rob Pattinson "pained" look. Priceless.

Breaking Dawn dirt

Apparently Ashley Greene recently told an interviewer that they are going to start filming "Breaking Dawn" right after they finish "Eclipse". She also said she has yet to see an Eclipse script yet. I am not putting a ton of credence into anything unless it comes from Summit or Stephenie Meyer. But it's still exciting to hear the talk and start considering the possibilities. Check out this awesome article from Nadya Vlassoff over at Deadbolt. She is saying Stephenie Meyer is slated to co-write the screenplay. Holy crap - I BET THAT'S WHAT SHE'S DOING NOW! (yelled in that aggro-but-endearing British fangirl's voice) Remember what I said? She skipped the MTV Awards. She took down her Myspace page. She wants no distractions. Because she's WRITING, people. SHE'S WRITING! Anyway - Nadya also says that it is rumored that Kristin Stewart has NOT signed on. That is MOST interesting, don't you say? I don't know how to feel about that. Love me some Kstew... but I don't think I'd cry in my cornflakes if she wasn't Bella. I think I'm going to like her better as Joan.

SO - this post BEGS THE QUESTION: If Kstew didn't sign on to play Bella Swan in Breaking Dawn (which we all know she will, but humor me people)... WHO SHOULD REPLACE HER? And WHY AM I SCREAMING?! (The beach! The truck!!!)

I couldn't help it!

I had to post this! I just... HAD to. I felt COMPELLED to. I have no excuse. There is no excuse for my shameless behavior in posting gratuitous video of Rob Pattinson looking hot. None. None whatsoever. But it DOES have an "Eclipse" mention, right? I'm not all bad!

Andrew vs Edward

Check out what my (little shit) nephew did to my sister. He is going into the 8th grade and says he loathes Twilight. (As if!)
He has been having a little fun with us - AT EDWARD'S EXPENSE!!! He thinks Tracey has turned to the dark side by reading Twilight. (OK clearly she was making fun of it before she read it, but I'll let that one slide as she has since made up for this blasphemous abuse.) From here on out, I plan on spending every waking moment I am at his house discussing Twilight until he runs off screaming and yelling "I love you, Edward!" It'll happen. Just wait.

Hey you have until tomorrow at midnight to enter the Suvudu "Get Read to Roadtrip to Comic-con with Stephenie Meyer" contest. which was mentioned on stepheniemeyer.com the other day. The winner will receive the audio version of all four Twilight novels on CD. NICE!

You have to answer the following question. My (quite stupid) entry is below.

If you were on a road trip with either a vampire or werewolf what would your itunes playlist be and what snacks would you pack to ensure you’re not the snack?

Travel partner? Definitely vampire. And definitely Edward Cullen. And seeing as Edward is alllll about the 50s music, I'd have to fill the iPod with songs like "Don't Be Cruel"... "In the Still of the Night"... "Breathless"... and of course, "Young Blood"! And maybe "Sexy and 17" by the Straycats... because Edward digs an 80s tune once in a while, right?

As for snacks, I'd bring along my nasty neighbor's even nastier cats, Jane and Alec, just in case he got hungry. And possibly some True Blood, too. (Yeah, yeah... wrong series, but it's a long trip, right?!)

"My Edward". sigh...

My sister just finished the Twilight series and is pretty much as addicted as I. (Or is it "me"? I forget. Sister Ann Cecilia would not be happy with me right now.) We have been having Twiscussions for days... and Edward seems to come up the most. (snicker - duh!) I think Tracey is as taken with Edward as I am. But she can't say what her Edward looks like. She says she doesn't really have an Edward. Nonsense, I say. No self-respecting Twihard would dare not have an Edward. I think she'll think her own up eventually. And I realize it's been too long since I've posted a photo of "my Edward".... so here you go. Isn't he pretty?

How cute is this?

Check out this adorable shot of Peter Facinelli - aka Carlisle - hugging and kissing a TwiMom on TwilightMoms.com . Apparently she was covering the bikini show on Hollywood Boulevard the other day. What a nice guy.
