Carol Comes out of Hiding

WOW.   I haven't posted in a ridiculously long time! 

I just wanted to update you guys and let you know I am keeping good on my promise.  I have NOT actively sought-out or looked at a photo - or video - from Breaking Dawn since those first shots came out of Edward and Bella at the street fair on their honeymoon.

Get this - I WALKED OUT OF A TRAILER at the movies a few weeks ago.  How's THAT for being true to my word?  It came on and my friend Nancy sucks in her breath and I go "WHAT?!" and she says "YOU - of all people - don't KNOW?!"  I IMMEDIATELY stand up - and walk out.  More like RUN out.  Giggle.  And then proceed to email some of my TwiBuds from my iPhone and say  "I am alone in the lobby at the movies because I walked out on the Breaking Dawn trailer!!"

One thing I HAVE seen is the official poster - see above (note the "play" button which shows I took it right off the front page and did NOT press "play") - because I'm an IMDb dweeb and there is just NO way to avoid it. It reminds me of an ad from the 70s where he's feeling her smooth skin.  Although he looks like he's about ready to assault her - and she looks like she likes it.  Snicker.  Well wouldn't you?!

ALSO - I will avoid the commercials when they start airing.  I am THAT committed to being totally surprised and thrilled at the film when it finally comes out on November 18th. 

It's been hard...but I can wait...because that's ALL SHE WROTE!  LITERALLY! ROFLMAO!  This is IT!  Once BD1 and BD2 come out - it's all OVAH!

Oh and PS - an open letter to Stephenie Meyer:

Dear Stephenie, 

First off - what's up, girl?!  

Second - please finish Midnight Sun, mmmmkay? 

Thanks!  Love ya!  Mean it!

My Purgatory Dot Com

Just wanted to fill y'all in on what's happening with the new website.  I've created so many blogs, I wanted to combine them all in one place.  I also wanted somewhere to talk about non-Twilight things...like True Blood...Game of Thrones...celeb gossip and the like.  Tracey and I will be making some videos that we hope will have you laughing your ass off or (hopefully not) running screaming from your computer!

Thus - mypurgatory.com is now live.  

The blogs will all remain at their own addresses - ie - mytwilightpurgatory.com - but they will also now be housed in one place over at mypurgatory.

I want to throw a massive THANK YOU out to an awesome guy named Stephen who selflessly gave me the domain "mypurgatory.com".  I also want to point out that he has the COOLEST Etsy store called Steampunk Movement Studio and I would love it if you'd check it out!

TLaut Ups His Ride

I know I don't usually post about the actors...but this just made me giggle. Looks like someone's not driving a VW Rabbit anymore. The funniest part about this story? "With his parents".

Twilight Restaurant Scene

Just came across the restaurant scene from Twilight on TV.  Whenever I come across it, I can't turn it off.  And I never gave it much thought - until tonight.  I think I finally figured it out.  This is one of the scenes in the series that shows the true Edward Cullen.  I suppose I should give Rob Pattinson kudos because he really brings out so many facets of Edward's personality in this scene:  protective...sarcastic...funny...a smart-ass...it's all there.  Take a look.  (And ignore the oddness that is the end of this version.  The video was just so much better in this than all the rest on youtube.  But the end is...well...just take a look. LOL)

Filmmaker Statement Regarding Breaking Dawn Leaks

Dear Twilight Saga fans,

As some of you may know, pictures and screen grabs of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn as a work in progress have leaked on the internet. We are extremely proud of this film and also extremely heartbroken to see it out there at this stage.

The film and these images are not yet ready or in their proper context. They were illegally obtained and their early dissemination is deeply upsetting to the actors, the filmmakers and Summit who are working so hard to bring these movies to fruition to you in November 2011 and November 2012.

Please, for those who are posting, stop. And please, though the temptation is high, don’t view or pass on these images. Wait for the film in its beautiful, finished entirety to thrill you.

Sincerely,

Stephenie Meyer, Bill Condon, Wyck Godfrey and Summit Entertainment

What you Need for your Vampire Boyfriend

Holy crap, this is the most boring blog on the planet right now!  I can't help it; I refuse to look at any of the Breaking Dawn movie stuff online!  It's the last hurrah, people!  I don't want to see it before the movie comes out (in 8 million months)!

So...there isn't much to blog about right now.  COMMA HOWEVER, I just ran into this juicy little morsel on FunnyOrDie.com - and just about fell off my damned chair.  I know it's a recycle since I've posted it before, but who cares?  Watch it and see how quickly YOU fall of your chair, too!

My Twilight AND Outlander Purgatory!

Before watching this video, I have a few disclaimers:

1) It is for entertainment purposes only...aka it's supposed to make y'all giggle and I don't mean to step on any toes and I credited everyone at the end.

2) I am a total video amateur and it shows. But I couldna help it, Sassenachs. I just... had to make it.

3) I hope you like it. :)

Jasper Hale Doll

Oh holy hell... THIS just about made me pee my pantalones. $149.00!!! Now.. don't get me wrong.. I love myself some Jasper Hale. But really? REALLY?! Then again - he does come with the Cullen bracelet. Not too shabby!! Another thing I love is the groovy hair. I think it's more groovy than Jackson Rathbone's!

Is Kstew an "extraordinary actress"?

Am I the only one who gets tired of watching young (albeit gorgeous, well maybe not in this video) Hollywood actors kiss each others' asses? She's such an "extraordinary actress"??  Dude. Seriously. C'mon. Hellen Mirren is an "extraordinary actress". Dame Judy Dench is an "extraordinary actress".  Kristen Stewart - while being a good actress with a solid resume - has a way to go before she hits "extraordinary" status. Why feel the need to kiss your best friend's girlfriend's ass? Chill and speak the truth. They'll like you anyway.
