Stephenie Meyer Update

2012-02-15T23:02:00.001-05:00

Um...y'all have to read Stephenie Meyer's February 11th post on her website. Usually her brother, Seth (where have I heard that name before??) runs the site, but the February 11th entry is a tremendous update from Stephenie, regarding what she's been doing with her time for the past year!

Um, hello? Austenland?! OMG! LOVE!!!

Edward vs. Tate

2012-01-22T11:49:00.004-05:00

Holy crap. I almost cheated on Edward. I'm sorry but THIS is way cool. I can't help it; I love Tate.

My BREAKING DAWN Review

2011-11-21T15:18:00.001-05:00

There will be no wine before its time.

And there will be no Breaking Dawn review from Carol before its time either, bitches!!!

So I went with a whole slew of fellow Twi-chicks to see the film on Friday at 10AM (no tweens). In the words of my sister, Tracey..."It was ridiculous...and AWESOME...at the same time."

As you all know, I haven't looked at much of anything since Breaking Dawn started filming. And I would advise ALL OF YOU to do the same for the last movie. My crew was telling themselves it didn't matter that they googled and watched trailers and took it all in beforehand...but I beg to differ. When you don't know what it will be visually...and then you sit down and watch...oh my god it's absolutely mind-blowing. SO much better than going in KNOWING what it will all look like.

OK but enough about that. Let's get to it.

Stunning, party of this!

Loved the snot outta this dress.

The wedding. Gorgeous setting and I LOVED the dress. Why? Because it was completely Edwardian and I knew Edward would love it. The whole damned film made me squeee with the thought of how happy he would be. Well - until Bella decided to be all freaky on the couch. But we'll get to that in a min.

Let's fast foward to the Honeymoon, shall we? Seeing Edward in that water was so delicious - almost as good as I pictured it in my head. Loved Bella's freak-out, human minutes. It was SO real; we all would have done that. I love how Edward saunters his ass into the water, thinking nothing at all about the nookie that is about to transpire. SUCH a guy.

Really? You expect me not to
HOWL at this? REALLY?!

The headboard scene? I LAUGHED! Right out loud! Loudest one in the theatre!!! I couldn't HELP it! It was FUNNY!!! I truly expected everyone to laugh and him to make a snide comment...but it never came. And then I was horrified that I laughed at something everyone else took so seriously! Is there something wrong with me?

Before...after! Before...after!

Wasn't thrilled with the carnage in the bedroom. I mean, really? I get that he's all strong...but c'mon. They're both virgins. It would have been way more tame than that. But whatever - no complaints from me. No way.

Let's move on. Loved that they kept the fried chicken in the film. Loved that Edward looked like he was going to cry and run around screaming "find a happy place!! at the same time when he found out Bella was knocked up. SO classic. It's killing me that I can't sit and watch each scene 80 million times like I did with Twilight since the first time I saw that was when it came out on video.

YOU'VE LEFT ME NO CHOICE!!!

And now...I will come to the most fantastic part of the film. "YOU'VE LEFT ME NO CHOICE!!!" to which I screamed "YES!!!" and fist pumped 10 or 12 times right there in the theatre. And now, every time I watch the trailer, I do it again. Today I yelled "NICE!" at that part and was afraid I scared my kids. Bottom line - we all know how much I HATED Wimpy Edward in Book 4. It bugged the crap out of me that he was laying in Bella's lap and whimpering instead of opening up that sarcastic mouth and fighting for what he wanted. And in this film, he did that. And did it fantastically.

Edward Cullen getting his ass kicked
would never, EVER HAPPEN!

And it made up for them letting him get his ass kicked in New Moon when we all know Edward Cullen ain't nevah gettin' his ass kicked, no way...no how.

Loved Jacob through the whole film...although I wished his sarcasm came through better in the film like it did in the book. In the book he was hilarious and in the film he was just pissed.

I dug all the wolfified stuff...although we all agreed it was a bit of a creepfest to watch the wolves talk when they were in wolf form. But how else could they have done it? I don't know. Maybe from further away...like we could have been looking down on them from a rooftop angle. But please, not that skanky roof on Jacob's skanky red house that he should stay home and paint once in a while instead of chasing vampires. Ugh...gross. Every time I see it, I get the shakes.

Not in my nature. Yummy Emmett.

And, um, I'm sorry...but did anyone notice how Emmett KICKED ASS in this movie?! LOVED him! And they didn't even show all his smartass commentary while Bella was pregnant! He just makes my day with every one of his (very small) lines.

LOVED the birth scene. Edward BROUGH IT in every way possible. They changed a few things as far as order of the way they happened...but not enough to get under my skin in any way. LOVED that they showed Edward dive down and dig in with le teeth. Genius way of showing that it happened - but NOT showing it happen. Brills.

I can't WAIT for the next film. Could SOMEONE please tell me why we have to wait an entire YEAR???

Here comes the smolder...

Oh and Carlisle's Hair: SO NOT HAPPY! WHAT has happened to that poor gorgeous man?! How does one go from this --------------->

Bad angle...bad lighting...bad hair...
A world of Carlisle badness!

<-----------------To THIS?!

They have reduced him to NOTHING (I think ESME had more lines!) and have given him the worst hair on the planet. Seriously. It's just so sad. I'm thinking of camping out in Zuccotti Park in protest.

That's all I got for now but I KNOW there is more. I'll keep you posted on the goings on of my brain.

In The Theatre!!!!

2011-11-18T09:55:00.001-05:00

In the theatre with Tracey, Jenn D, Jenn M and Shannon, waiting for Breaking Dawn to start. And freaking out. Just a bit. Ok a lot. Squee!!!

Torn

2011-11-16T09:00:00.001-05:00

I thought it was a fitting week to whip this one back out again...

3 MORE DAYS!

2011-11-15T12:49:00.001-05:00

THREE MORE DAYS and if I see one more commercial I am going to flip out. There were no less than THREE on last night and I had to run or change the channel every time. It's so upsetting. I don't want to see ANYTHING until Friday!!! :)

NO BREAKING DAWN TRAILERS...EVER!!!

2011-10-19T22:42:00.002-04:00

I DID IT! ABC showed a Breaking Dawn "sneak peak" trailer during Modern Family and I didn't watch or listen! I put my fingers in my ears and said "lalalalalala" like my 6 year old - until it was over!!! (The funny part about that is that it was about 20 minutes ago. We were watching on the DVR and forgot we could fast forward!)

Take THAT, Hollywood! I don't want to watch and I will NOT watch until November 18th...when I CAN FINALLY WATCH!!! ;)

PS - from the quick, accidental glimpse I did catch...is it me or does Edward look more made-up than ever? Yikes. He looked like he was about to spray me with something musky at the L'ANCOME counter!

Carol Comes out of Hiding

2011-09-16T23:11:00.001-04:00

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

2011-08-16T10:18:00.002-04:00

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!

Twilight Restaurant Scene

2011-04-10T20:55:00.000-04:00

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

2011-04-01T16:06:00.000-04:00

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

2011-03-22T10:03:00.000-04:00

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!

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. :)

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!

Robert Pattinson To Play ‘Renesmee’s Lullaby’ In Breaking Dawn!

Is Kstew an "extraordinary actress"?

2011-02-02T22:16:00.001-05:00

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.

"the most, like, intense form of pretentious dishevelment I've ever seen".

It's THAT type of statement that makes me love Robert Pattinson. Seriously. You can keep the hair and the eyes and the blahbady blah blah. At the end of the day, the guy just cracks me up.

AWESOME Edward Cullen Video

I so would.

Am I the only one who is not looking at any more Breaking Dawn coverage? I stopped with the first set of photos of the street party and the boat. I just can't do it y'all...I can't! I looked at Edward and Bella reuniting in New Moon when the photos first came out... and regretted it BIG time when I saw the film. This is it. The last hurrah. The last book made into film(s). I have to savor the experience and be completely shocked at everything!

Am I the only one of this mindset?!

Edward Cullen's Breaking Dawn Wardrobe. REALLY???

2010-11-09T12:35:00.000-05:00

It's that time of year again... the time when the leaves are falling... and the air is crisp... and I feel the desperate need to discuss what Edward's been wearing lately.

Case in point. Really? REALLY?!? Are you effing KIDDING ME?!?

Edward Cullen... the man who wore mostly white or light-colored clothing. The man who wore snazzy leather jackets and turtlenecks. The man who would never in a gazillion years (about how long he's been alive) be caught DEAD (uh...nevermind) wearing an ensemble like THIS on his honeymoon.

Yeah. THAT Edward.

I mean... I just don't get it. Did he buy that shirt at the Catholic School Uniform Shop??? And PS, Edward, it's pretty see-through, mmmkay? You are one rain shower away from being naked from the waist up. And the pants. Lorddddddd the pants! I have two words for you: BO. RING. And I don't really understand the shoes as they are brown and the pants are black. But whatevs. I'm so far gone over the rest of it that I can't even bother myself with what he's wearing on his feet.

And let me ask you this: If he's so freezing all the time then why in god's name are his sleeves rolled up that far?!? Riddle me THAT, Batman!!!

Now Bella... BELLA on the other hand.... Somebody call Patsy and Eddy because she is Absolutely FABULOUS!! Adorable little ensem... thanks to Alice's swell taste in clothing. Thank god the powers that be didn't mess with what Bella should be wearing on a proper honeymoon. And I think she's even wearing a lot of her own hair. Just fabu.

THERE WAS NO STREET SCENE IN BREAKING DAWN! Seclusion means SECLUSION!!!

2010-11-08T11:28:00.000-05:00

Oh. My. God. I'm trying my very best not to be absolutely heartbroken about this. This is a massive story change. The whole point of Isle Esme was that they were SECLUDED. Just Edward - and Bella. From the moment they got on that boat - until the moment they left - with the housekeepers being the only humans who came near them. That's IT. Their seclusion lent to the craziness of the situation!! There was no street party. I mean - don't get me wrong - a street party scene might be cool. But it's not them! It's not the scene! Edward wanted to get Bella AWAY from people. And he took her in that boat by HIMSELF and knew exactly where he was going in the dark. It put the reader on such a sensory journey because - while being excited to get away with Edward - you were also a little scared about the fact that you were completely alone on a DESERTED ISLAND with a VAMPIRE.

(puts head down on table)

I knew this would happen at some point. This Condon guy is totally changing the story. And with that, he's changing the characters. :(

Interview with Anne Rice: 'Vampire' writer talks about creating characters and stories you can sink your teeth into | NJ.com

2010-11-01T08:54:00.001-04:00

Check out the full NJ.com interview with Anne Rice here.

Q. It is complicated, which is why I have such mixed feelings about “Twilight.” It’s so sanitized.
A. It’s based on a really silly premise: that immortals would go to high school. It’s a failure of imagination, but at the same time, that silly premise has provided Stephenie Meyer with huge success. It’s almost like a stroke of genius to put vampires in high school. They just graduate over and over again.

Q. I hated high school.
A. Doesn’t everyone? The idea that if you are immortal you would go to high school instead of Katmandu or Paris or Venice, it’s the vampire dumbed down for kids. But it’s worked. It’s successful. It makes kids really happy.

Q. It seems those books are sanitized whereas in the rest of pop culture, you’ll see very young girls dressed in an overtly sexual manner. The vampires are wholesome compared with the rest of what’s out there.
A. I don’t think vampires are very wholesome. They’re fantasy characters, and we have to keep reminding ourselves of this. They don’t exist. I get e-mails from people who are outraged that I watch “True Blood.” They say, “How can you condone the evil of ‘True Blood.’” I say, “Are you kidding? Vampires aren’t real. Keep that in mind.”

My Breaking Dawn Wish List

2010-10-03T11:27:00.005-04:00

Here's an add-on to the story I always thought would be so cool in the film:

Wouldn't it be cool if - while Jacob was speeding through the Northwest in Edward's Aston Martin Vanquish - Tanya was running though the woods, fast as lightning, and caught up with him? Then Tanya gets in the car and Jacob lets her drive Edward's beloved car. And Tanya is speeding like a mofo - to the point where Jacob is holding on for dear life - and Tanya is laughing at him the whole time. But she's doing it because she's so devastated that Edward doesn't love her - and it makes her feel good to know she's driving his precious car.

Holy CRAP! THIS is AWESOME. I LOVE MAGGIE GRACE!!! Remember when she used to boss Boone around on LOST??? And now she's going to boss EVERYONE around in Breaking Dawn. Well not directly. And she does bite it pretty good at the end. But still. She's a big, ol' BEOTCH who thinks she has been wronged. I can only hope we get some good Edi Gathegi flashbacks out of this. Let's be honest - the franchise took a downturn when Laurent was killed. If there is anything I wish they'd have changed from the books... it's that! (And Edward's stupid MOM-MOBILE - but I digress.)

Twilight the Film: Where's the Beef?

2010-09-25T21:53:00.000-04:00

Ya know... I'm sitting here watching Twilight (what can I say? It's on TV! Can't turn it off, right?!) and I never realized before... how much they effed up by not showing the day-to-day routine of Edward and Bella. In the books, he slept over there every single night. And they kissed... ALL the time. And yet - from this movie - all you know is that they kissed once and that he stayed at her house once (right after the aforementioned kiss) while she slept. And he looked uncomfortable, too. It just didn't happen that way at all. He was a fixture in Bella's bedroom for months - on a daily basis. And did I mention that they KISSED - a LOT!

Having said that - props to Catherine Hardwicke for the following:

- Edward AND Bella are pale as shit. VERY true.

- The music - incredible - PUTS you in Forks.

- La Push - S-T-U-N-N-I-N-G - even though it wasn't really La Push.

Jamie Campbell Bower in the buff...on a boat...

2010-09-25T10:23:00.001-04:00

Check out this DELICIOUS shot of Jamie Campbell Bower from Twifans. How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. Unforch, I'm not even sure he's 22 yet. LOL He's filming "Camelot" for Starz, where he'll play King Arthur. I find that squee-rific... even if he is barely legal. Pillars of the Earth - also on Starz - was fabu. They do love their cute little British boys now don't they?

So glad we'll be seeing JCB in Breaking Dawn. He's so adorable, even when he's playing a centuries-old, bratty vampire...

And For the Rest of my Life I Was Like...

Kristen Stewart playing Bella's Breaking Dawn violent birth scenes as written

2010-09-03T10:23:00.000-04:00

From SheKnows.com: Kristen Stewart playing Bella's Breaking Dawn violent birth scenes as written

From Melissa Rosenberg, screenwriter for the Twilight series:

"It's on their faces. It's all from Bella's point of view when you're seeing what's going on. It should feel visceral. I think it's going to be pretty intense."

OOOOOH SNAP!!! It's from Bella's point of view. When I was reading it, since Bella was pretty much out after her spinal cord snaps, I always saw the scene from sortof in the middle of Edward and Jacob. Edward on my left (I almost typed "lap") at Bella's feet - Jacob on my right at Bella's head. But we're going to see both Edward and Jacob from Bella's perspective! That gets me all tingley inside! I could weep with joy!

Nikki Reed Talks "Breaking Dawn"

2010-08-22T11:41:00.000-04:00

I found this article interesting. Nikki Reed talks about Rosalie's (formerly Carol's) motives in letting Bella continue on with a pregnancy that she knows will most likely kill her.

I loved this storyline in Breaking Dawn. I loved pondering Rosalie's motives... and her relationship with Bella AND Edward during the whole pregnancy and birth. It's really twisted and ugly if you think about it. Rosalie is one bad mofo who needs her own bad mofo wallet!

This kills me. Normally I don't post about the cast (unless their last name is Pattinson) but COME ON! AC??? I live an hour away! I could totally have gone to this! I would have shown Emmett the love!!!

I wonder if he was any good? Does he DJ a lot? Or is this new? What would be REALLY cool would be seeing 100 Monkeys with KLutz DJing between sets.

Robert Pattinson Gets Chased By Paparazzi Slime

2010-07-26T23:19:00.006-04:00

Holy crap. I don't usually post stuff like this because I feel like I'm contributing to the madness. But this time I WANT to. I WANT people to see how relentless and DANGEROUS these parasites are. He's asking them to go away because he has a hard time DRIVING while they're driving up close to him and cutting him off and running stop signs, trying to get a photograph. It's unreal. Actually, it's not, unfortunately. (Two words: Princess Diana). And he's right; they've got a million pictures! You got what you wanted - now GO AWAY. You KNOW they were hoping he'd hit them or grab their camera or something. And did he? No way. What a class act. Honest to god - Robert Pattinson is heads and shoulders above so many other actors in that regard. He's a nice guy. Show some integrity and leave him alone.

Breaking Dawn (but not placenta)

2010-07-14T15:51:00.003-04:00

OK so isn't THIS an interesting little Pop Sugar interview with Melissa Rosenberg.... Complete with the following commentary regarding what we will and WILL NOT see in the birthing scene:

The childbirth — all the scenes, I feel — should be on screen. I think perhaps what I was referring to was, would we actually see Edward's teeth through the placenta? I don't think so. I don't think we need to see that, and if someone needs to see that, I think they should take a look at that. [Laughs.] I believe it will be implied, but I don't think we'll see teeth in the placenta.

Frankly... I don't know how I feel about that. I mean - Do I want to see Rob Pattinson's face all full of reproductive lady gunk? Um, no. But... do I want it to be DAMN WELL IMPLIED what he did to save Bella? Abso-effing-lutely.

I also found the following to be a VERY interesting quote regarding Kristen Stewart and what she'll have to do once Bella is no longer human:

I think seeing Bella as a vampire and her adjusting to her powers and embracing them, those are all really fun scenes to write. Particularly when you picture Kristen Stewart playing her, and the way she's embodied Bella as a sort of awkward, fidgety persona. When she turns into a vampire, all of that goes away.

Well.... now... isn't that interesting??? Kstew is going to be expected to be NORMAL once Bella turns. No breathing heavily... no worried eyes... no staring straight ahead as if at nothing when looking at Edward. (But not straight into his eyes... we know that's not possible.) That alone will be worth the price of the ticket (most likely $20 by the time the damn thing comes out)... definitely.

Fun with Eclipse!

2010-07-13T16:01:00.011-04:00

So Jenn D was visiting from Erie over the weekend (we're not WORTHY, oh subject of PFach's Tweets!) and of course we had to see Eclipse again to produce some new blog fodder. And we made some interesting observations (which Jenn refers to as "Mega Eclipse Blog Points" which I thought was pretty dang amusing) regarding everyone's favorite Twi-film:

1. The wigs. LORDDDDDD THE WIGS! What the hell HAPPENED in Eclipse?! Have you noticed that not only does Kstew wear a wig, but she wears multiple wigs. They are:

* Christian Rock Wig (borrowed from Jacob)
* Pageant Wig (very full, wavy and 80s)
* Wednesday Adams Wig (flat-ironed on the top and sides)
* Victoria's Secret Wig (wavy but not quite as big as Pageant Wig)

I'll have to see it again to remember when each wig was worn... but I do know the Pageant wig was from the last scene in the meadow. It was like Ken Paves came in and said "Quiet on the set, people! I need to CREATE!"

Then there is Carlisle's horrendous lemon, yellow wig... and Rosalie's "perfectly quaffed but still obviously a wig" wig. And lord... why didn't they dye her eyebrows to match?!

2. Rob Pattinson is like the light from the arc of the covenant in Indiana Jones. At one point, during the "bed scene", Tracey says to me "Kristen doesn't even look into Rob's eyes" to which I reply "Dude he's ROB PATTINSON. No mere mortal can look him directly in the eyes."

3. Robstank. While discussing the aforementioned RPattz, Jennifer decides she thinks he smells lovely. I then remind her about Catherine Hardwicke's commentary about him picking up his buddy's shirt off the floor and wearing it to an awards show, after said buddy wore it drumming at a gig the night before. Jenn proceeds to tell me that even if Rob smelled "musky and spunky" she would still love him. I cannot remember the last time I giggled so profusely.

4. Why don't they ever let Esme talk?

5. Carlisle's New British Accent. Lorddddd the accent! Why don't I remember quite such an over-the-top accent from Twilight or New Moon? They're creating an AHHHHHMY! What is THAT all about?? That must be the new direction. Not that I don't like it. I am just not used to Carlisle from Yorkshire. It's funny because I said I couldn't remember where Carlisle was from.. and asked if he was from Italy. Jenn then said "Italy? Hello?! His NAME is CARLISLE CULLEN!" I had a giggle fit at this and almost drove off the road.

6. Rosalie Cullen. Mafia Princess. Seriously. Tracey was giggling during Rosalie's little Royce story because Nikki Reed is from NYC... and Tracey thought it came through loud and clear. I had to tell her to pipe down because the people a few rows behind us might get upset. And please - again - DYE HER EYEBROWS to match her (bad) wig!

7. Action Figure Cullens. You have to LOVE that scene where they're waiting for the fight - clad all in black - waiting for Victoria's minions. And then the wolves all jump into the action and it's way cool... and Tracey says to me "how do the wolves know which vampires to kill?" to which I reply "the Cullens are all wearing their black, action figure suits. The wolves will know."

And Jenn D wants to know why the wolves don't have any "junk". And how they all show up clad in their denim manpri's when none of them tie their shorts around their legs like Jacob did in the book. And don't get me started on Leah. Somehow she's able to produce a shirt and bra out of thin air.

I HAVE SEEN ECLIPSE!

2010-07-06T09:42:00.005-04:00

Went with my Twi-Buds, Jenn and Shannon. My apologies to my friends who haven't seen it yet. We realized last minute that we had an open window - and ran with it - which is a necessary evil when you have young kids who need babysitters. The husbands are home to watch 'em? "GO GO GO!" (yelled like a S.W.A.T. team outside Tony Soprano's house.)

Anyway - I have every intention of going back - so just say the word, and I'm there.

OK - Here is my synopsis:

I. Loved. It!!! SO much. To the point where I had tears in my eyes during the credits - because I was so happy it was so good. David Slade is a god ("no God"). I was pretty sure of this going INTO the film....but was convinced beyond the shadow of a doubt when I came out. It was beautiful. And it truly worked. Here's how good it was: My favorite parts of the book were NOT in the movie... and yet... I loved it. How's THAT for good direction???

So many comments... so little time...

Credit where it's due:

KRISTEN STEWART WAS GREAT! She hit it right out of the ball park. No sniveling...no loud breathing...no whining. Just Bella. A little down in the dumps and in desperate need of a laugh once in a while... but just Bella. And she doesn't a) write the script or b) direct - so I have nothing but love for her today. Nothing but love.

JACKSON RATHBONE WAS BEYOND! He was awesome. I have been waiting for 3 films for that man to get his comeuppance... and boy does he in this film. He looks great - his acting is superb (I think I cried for him at one point) and he is just a star in the making. It's wonderful to watch.

JULIA JONES aka Leah Clearwater. The GREATEST casting in the history of casting. She was FANTASTIC. She made me happy to have read an entire series of Twilight books. She restored my faith in the bringing life to these characters. THAT'S how good she was.

XAVIER SAMUEL - holy crap, kid. Where'd YOU come from??? Talk about seeming like a seasoned professional. Hollywood better not eff this up. This kid is a star.

I have to see the film again (and see it again, I will), because so much of it has left my brain already... but a few of the odder things I do remember:

Ugh. Carlisle. Poor Carlisle. What have they done to you, my lemon-haired friend? Why have they turned you into a caricature with a bad Madonna-esque British accent? Who stole my beautiful Carlisle and left Liberace in his place?! Why?? WHY?!?! (screamed like Nancy Kerrigan.)

The Cullens - waiting for Victoria and standing in formation like the A Team. What was that all about? I guess it was done to make the guys happy. That's the only reason I can possibly attribute to that weirdness.

And speaking of Victoria. All I can say is a big, fat MEH! She was horrible!!! No offense to Bryce Dallas Howard because she's a great actress. But she was SO miscast. She was way too cute to be Victoria. An the wig was so god awful, I didn't know what to do with myself. Rachelle Lefevre was robbed... and moreso the AUDIENCE was robbed of her beautiful portrayal of such an evil character. It didn't work at all - but would have been golden with Rachelle. Epic Summit FAIL.

That's it for now. Until 15 minutes from now when I think about something new. See y'all soon!

My Truckstop Purgatory

2010-07-02T23:59:00.007-04:00

OK so listen up, y'all. I've got a new blog and I'm truly excited to share it with you.

My neighbor, Tony Aloupis wrote a screenplay called "Truckstop"...and it's being made into a movie. Here's the thing... I live in a quiet neighborhood at the Jersey shore (nooooo...not near Snooki!) and this type of thing does not happen every day. And well... seeing as I'm a self-professed "Walking US Magazine" as well as being a dorky movie buff who constantly quotes movies in my daily life, I immediately asked him all about it.

Long story short - Tony let me read the script... and it was fan-tas-tic. Beyond good. And as we talked, I found out a certain JACKSON RATHBONE is THE STAR OF THE FILM! At that point, I was in "HOLY CRAP!!!" mode. I have said for a very long time that Jackson Rathbone's talents are wasted in Twilight because they never let him say anything! (I am THRILLED to see Eclipse because his character is VERY important in that book.) After hearing about Jackson, I found out Ryan Kwanten - aka JASON friggin STACKHOUSE is in the film... as well as a tremendous actress named Jennifer Lawrence who is currently starring in an award-winning film called "Winter's Bone" that is getting Oscar buzz.

So... bottom line... I am beyond excited for this film to be made. And well.. what's a girl to do but start a blog?? The film is being directed by Rotimi Rainwater who has been kind enough to give me some photos and info, etc. It's being shot at the Jersey shore, starting in September from what I'm told.

And if THAT weren't enough.. Tony Aloupis and Rotimi Rainwater are also working on an upcoming film called "Sugar" which will be starring Shenae Grimes from 90210... and none other than... wait for it... Alex Meraz - aka PAUL from the WOLF PACK!!!! I will be covering that film on the blog as well.

So I hope you will take this journey with me and watch this "story on paper" become a "story on film".

Friggin Twilight

2010-07-02T10:37:00.002-04:00

Since I live at the Jersey Shore - and am 1/2 Italian, I have never warmed up to these kids; until now. This. Is. HYSTERICAL. Go Team Snooki.

TODAY'S THE DAY!

2010-06-30T11:22:00.004-04:00

Am I seeing Eclipse tonight? No way in hell.
Am I seeing it tomorrow night? NOT.

I am a self-professed pain in the ass. I MUST wait a good, solid week or so. By then all the crazy will die down and I won't be in danger of dealing with the following:

Someone with a big head/hat sitting in front of me.
Tweens talking loudly to each other while I'm trying to hear Edward being funny.
A sold-out theatre (which makes for a loud and hot theatre.)
Twi-Freaks (snicker. I know what you're thinking and you're probably right.)
Refer back to #3 (also makes for various, indescribable odors.)

It's all about the experience, y'all. And a theatre that's half-full (or less) makes for a very good Twi-Experience for Carol. My love of Edward Cullen leaves little room for hype. Not that hype is bad. I absolutely get the desire to be a "part of it all". So if you are going tonight - ENJOY!!!!! :)

Twilight Mahem in LA - Newsy Report

2010-06-25T14:57:00.001-04:00

Check out this video and then check out my commentary below. I'd LOVE to hear your thoughts.

Heard about this video from Thomas over at Newsy. Great video! Did I not tell you it's a little nutty camping out like this? Nothing against the Twihards who did it (yeah yeah, I've gone to a Twilight Convention) but seriously. It gets pretty crazy when they're giving out a ridiculous number of wristbands and they can't hold even half as many people! And really, what for? To catch a glimpse of a bunch of actors who - while appreciative of your support - think it's pretty damned creepy that you're doing it in the first place. THEY DO! Except maybe PFach. He seems to dig all this hysteria. ;)

Now sit back on your lil' pillows children, because I'm going to tell a story. Last year when Robert Pattinson was filming "Remember Me" in NYC, my friends and I thought it would be fun to go into the city and watch some filming. I had the ridiculously naive idea that we were going to go to an open air cafe... have a little lunch... stop by and quietly watch a little RPattz making his magic... and then have a lovely ride home on the New Jersey Coastline - back home to the other Jersey Shore (the one without Snooki and the Situation). Nice day out among friends, right? COME TO FIND OUT little girlies were flooding the filming areas...chasing Rob down the street,,, and - ew - trying to touch him. I took one look at the footage... felt SO BAD for the guy (and the terrified look on his face) and said "You know how we can best show our support? By STAYING THE HELL HOME."

Rob, I hope you realize there are cool fans out there who do right by you, dude. When all the little girlies are all "I want to marry Rob", you'll only hear ME saying "That guy seems like he would be a hell of a lot of fun to meet down at the pub for a pint." Maybe that's because I'm old enough to be your older sister. I really don't know...

Tom and Lorenzo Dish up the Red Carpet at the Eclipse Premiere

THIS is just such wonderful/hilarious/SPOT ON commentary on the ensems seen at the Eclipse premiere this week. If you aren't reading Tom and Lorenzo; you really should be.

PS - JLove - I love you. I support your career. I think you're adorable. So please... no more orange, girl! Don't get me wrong, I single-handedly keep the tanning lotion market in business. But play around. Experiment. You'll find the shade that's right for you.

You. Couldn't. Pay. Me. I love me some Edward Cullen but there is a line and I have no problem drawing it. Something tells me Rob Pattinson - while flattered - would be somewhat bothered by all the crazy.
I am not even planning on going to see Eclipse until July. Yup. You read that right. I am a movie ho and I refuse to see it in a packed theatre with little girlies talking about RPattz loudly to their BFFs on their cellphones.

Watching Twilight... Again

2010-06-21T22:56:00.000-04:00

Sigh. Channel surfing.. and Twilight is on. God I love this movie. I could watch this movie over and over again. What's with that? Why have I watched this about 56 times... and I've only watched New Moon once since I bought the DVD (uh.. the day it came out)?

Random questions:

Why did Bella have a MacBook Pro in the movie when the book Bella had an old, rusty computer with a horrendous connection like 28K?

Why was Edward such a douche when Bella told him she knew he was a vampire? Why not the meadow scene from the book? Because it was better cinema?

Why was Kristen Stewart so much better in Twilight than New Moon?

Holy shit I am TEARING UP at the "lion fell in love with the lamb" lines. This movie is so incredibly powerful. I don't know why people can't see that. It taps into the emotions of the book so incredibly well. I fear none of the other movies will ever do this.

Kudos - once again - to Catherine Hardwicke. SHE GETS IT.

The "Leg Hitch" Scene

Summit Announces Two Breaking Dawn Films

2010-06-11T15:53:00.002-04:00

BIG SHOCKER! Wow - never expected THIS!

Ya know what? SCOOP OF CHOCOLATE, SCOOP OF VANILLA! DON'T WASTE MY TIME!!! We've all known for months. Just like we've known Robsten are a couple. Yawn.

Here's what Twilight fans REALLY want to know:

WHERE will the book be cut? Jenn D has suggested (quite brilliantly) that it will be right smack in the middle of Bella birthin' that baby. Talk about a cliff-hanger. If I hadn't read the books... but seen the movies? I'd be PISSED if they did that. Either way, I'm going to be annoyed. And here's why: THERE IS LITTLE TO NO EDWARD CULLEN in the second half of Breaking Dawn! WHAT is the second film even going to BE about?? OK let's see - she'll squirt out Renesme... (ew) Jacob will imprint... (cute but icky)... Edward and Bella spend the night in their new cottage (IT'S ABOUT TIME, Y'ALL) and then it all goes tragically downhill from there. Lots of frolicking in the grass with Bella The New Vampire... and Renesme the Sortof New Vampire... and then the houseguests from hell arrive. ZZZZZ. And then they will train for the big fight that never happened... only it WILL happen in the movie because - for some reason - Summit digs showing us fight scenes that never happened in the books! (I repeat: Edward Cullen never got his ass kicked!!!) So we'll come to a crescendo with the Volturri... and the fight that never happened... and then all will be right with the Twilight universe. The End.

Kinda makes you want to shoot your eye out, doesn't it, kid?

PS - Oh c'mon. You know I'll be all full of "squeeee" and girly giggles when the shit comes out.

Rob Pattinson Interview with New Eclipse Trailer

2010-06-09T08:38:00.001-04:00

So many comments... so little time. Not sure how to describe this new scene... but "hot, tranny mess" does come to mind. OK - here we go:

1) Squeeeee!
2) Oh Carlisle. Sweet Carlisle. What have they done to your coif? LORDDDDD that's a bad shade of lemon.
3) What's with Bella's constant agony? I keep expecting Esme to say "Bella, dear, do you have to go to the bathroom?"
4) I LOVE how Jacksper saunters in all "hey dudes, just act natural and don't nobody mention my nifty new 'do.
5) Rosalie. The most beautiful vampire chick on the planet? Survey says: NO!

Thank you, Girl!

2010-06-08T16:42:00.000-04:00

So this girl was found hiding with her camera in the bushes near Robert Pattinson's "Water For Elephants" set in Cali on Friday....in hopes she'd get to meet him. Apparently she was 16 and the police gave her a "stern warning" and drove her to her house after finding her. (That would never happen to me. It's not like I ever drove around with my friends looking for John Taylor's house in Cali back in the 90s or anything. Nope. Not me.)

You know what? I SO want RPattz to go visit her like when Davy Jones visits Marcia on The Brady Bunch. Would that not be hilarious?!

MTV Awards Tonight!

2010-06-06T20:54:00.000-04:00

I'm at Jenn M's waiting for the MTV Movie Awards to start so we can see our Twilight pals up close and personal. Hopefully they'll win everything like last year. And maybe Rob and Kristen actually WILL kiss this year.

Do I sound like I'm 14? Survey says "YES!" When I told my husband I was going to Jenn's tonight he said "You're going to your girlfriend's house to watch the MTV Awards?" Yeah. It was pretty damned funny.

We are SUFFERING through this hideous Jersey Shore bullshiz in order to get to the awards. UGH. When you actually LIVE at the Jersey Shore and know it's NOTHING LIKE THIS (except in Seaside and Wildwood)... it's really offensive. (And no offense to Seaside and Wildwood - you guys get inundated with people like this. Most of them AREN'T EVEN FROM NEW JERSEY!

OK gotsta go! KThxBye!

Really Kristen, really? And on Memorial Day, no less. C'mon. I know it's a pain in the ass when the photogs are following you 24/7. But show a little class, please. No one ever got further in life by giving the finger wave. (And a double, no less!) So be a lady and keep those middle fingers in check. KThxBye.

MTV Awards Commercial: Tom Cruise aka Les Grossman and Rob Pattinson

2010-05-30T09:19:00.002-04:00

This will make you tinkle. If you haven't seen Tropic Thunder, Tom Cruise is playing his character from the film - Les Grossman; a douchebag Hollywood producer.

Warning - Tom Cruise floats the f-biscuit once or twice in this video and a whole lotta times in the link. LOL

Eclipse Clip: "Give You More"

2010-05-29T11:30:00.000-04:00

I need to see this movie already. Because if I go by the trailers, I won't be happy. This little clip makes Edward sound like a whiny little wussy man. It's bad enough they let him get his ass kicked in New Moon. How many times can I say it? EDWARD CULLEN IS NOT A WUSSY MAN! HE'S A BADASS VAMPIRE WHO HAPPENS TO LOVE A HUMAN! ENOUGH OF THE WHINING!!!

New Eclipse Trailer

This got me giddy just because Edward says "It's starting". Seriously. I miss Edward Cullen. I need a reread. PS - is it me or do the Cullens look like action figures in this shot? Especially Carlisle. They look like Pocket Cullens!!!

Eclipse Video Clip: BELLA AND ROSALIE!

2010-05-18T21:18:00.001-04:00

Squeee! Squeee! Squeee! I've always loved the Bella/Rosalie dynamic... and now we get to see it up close and personal (in this person's yellow living room.) I'm a little nervous about the fact that from what I can see of Kristen Stewart's reactions, this might as well be a scene from New Moon... but we'll reserve judgment until Eclipse comes out. (Except Jenn D. She'll have plenty to say, I'm sure. LOL)

Am I a horrible, HORRIBLE person if I'm hoping one of these sites "can't make it" (YEAH RIGHT) and Stephenie just happened to pick MYTWILIGHTPURGATORY.COM as a backup???

A girl can dream... right???

Young Hollywood Vampires

Honestly - I'm mostly posting this because Paul Wesley looks stunning... and I'm going through Vampire Diaries (TV) Withdrawal until September (SOB!)

Rob, Kristen and Taylor on Oprah.

Watching Rob, Kristen and Taylor on Oprah. Hilarious. They are all doing a great job (I know it's not live but work with me people!) And I have to say that Kristen looks gorgeous. Kudos, girl!
