A little about us:
Mike and Kenny (the show promoters) started out attending fan conventions as kids more than 25 years ago and between the two have attended over 200 conventions before becoming convention organizers themselves over four years ago. We know what it’s like to be fans… and convention attendees. We know what makes us excited as fans, and what the difference is between a FUN show and a not so fun show. Our goal is to make sure that everyone has a good time. We’re not like other conventions where you may be treated like a number… this is not a cattle call… We’re all here to have fun. We make every effort to make sure you get your “moment” with your favorite celebrities. That’s what makes us different.

New Moon Trailer Leak
by Leandra on August 17, 2009
in New Moon Movie
E! has an article talking about how Bandslam didn’t do as well as they expected it to do even with good reviews and the fact that a new New Moon trailer premiered before the movie. In the article it states ticket sales were probably affected by the leak of the New Moon trailer on the net. You can read the entire article here which also discusses the success of other movies in theaters this weekend.
To Our Readers:
I’m sure by now most of you caught a glimpse of the leaked trailer. And I have gotten a ton of emails with the link to the trailer sent to me. I will not be posting the trailer though until it is officially released by Summit Entertainment. The leaked trailer was illegal recorded in the theater. I don’t want to get in trouble with Summit so like all the other Twilight Fansites I will not be posting the trailer until Summit says it is OK.
UPDATE:
Well Summit released it LOL. Funny, I finally put a post up about it and then the same day it’s out. Maybe I’m psychic LOL!!! The trailer is in a post above this one, I doubt you missed it though.

Interview with Robert

in Cast & Characters, Interviews
The Daily Record has an interview with Robert Pattinson. He talks the films, fans and more.
Here is a little excerpt from the interview:
“I can’t remember what my normal life is like,” he admitted in one of his quieter moments.
“Because of internet stuff and Twitter, there will be a crowd if you are in a place for more than half an hour.
“I’ve learned never to stay in the same place for more than 20 minutes.”
He laughed, seemingly still amazed at the Beatles-like level of fandom he has following him.
Read the whole thing here.
Phoenix Twi-Tour
The Twilight Lexicon has information straight from the Phoenix Twi-Tour this weekend.
Some Juicy information they got was the following:

Head on over to Twilight Lexicon for more info from the event. They got a lot of great info to share, like green foam cows!
Jodelle Interview
by Leandra on August 16, 2009
in Cast & Characters, Eclipse Movie, Interviews
E! has an interview with Jodelle Ferland who was recently cast to play a vampire in Eclipse.
Here is a little excerpt from the interview:
So, if she won’t say whether her character is Team Edward or Team Jacob, what’s her pick in real life?
It’s Team Edward all the way for Jodelle.
Keep reading to find out why…
“I just think if maybe Jacob had been introduced first then everybody would like him better,” she said. “It just seems that since Edward was the first one to be with Bella, people want him to stay with her. So, you know that’s the character that you start to like first! And then Jacob comes in to the picture and everybody’s like, ‘Oh, no! Stay with Edward.’”
