People Magazine has an interview with Chris Weitz.
Read the whole article here.

He talks about scenes in the Eclipse movie (SPOILERS)

Chris Weitz, who directed New Moon, the second installment in the Twilight series, says he has read the script for this summer’s third installment, Eclipse – and that one scene in particular is a scorcher.

“I’m looking forward to the sleeping bag scene, I gotta say,” Weitz tells PEOPLE. “That’s going to be very steamy.”

In Eclipse’s fan-favorite “tent scene,” – spoiler alert! – a freezing Bella, who is on the run from evil vamp Victoria, gets a warm-up from werewolf Jacob when he squeezes into her sleeping bag – while a jealous Edward looks on.

I am so with Chris.
I can not wait for the tent scene.
It’s my favorite part of the whole series.
LOVE IT!!!
They better not cut any of it out of the movie. I wanna see it in all its glory!!!!

Found the picture on Letters to Twilight. Don’t know who the artist is, but I love it!!!

Summit Replaces Editor on Eclipse Movie

Leandra — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 18:18:55 +0000

An Article at the EW says that Summit Entertainment has replaced the editor on the Eclipse Movie.

Below is what they had to say:

Summit Entertainment, the studio behind the uber-successful Twilight series, confirmed this morning that it has replaced Eclipse editor Art Jones with Nancy Richardson, the editor of Catherine Hardwicke’s original Twilight film. The studio is not placing blame on Jones, who previously worked with Eclipse director David Slade on his horror film 30 Days of Night as well as Slade’s Ellen Page-starrer Hard Candy. They do believe, however, that Slade’s material – which they call “very good” – needed a stronger edit. The studio has more confidence in Richardson, who they say understands the emotion of the characters and is an ace at balancing action with the other elements of the film.

Thanks Katie!!!!

What scenes should definitely be in the Eclipse Movie?

Leandra — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 20:11:49 +0000

One of our readers, Arianna, found this at goodreads.com. It’s a list of scenes from the Eclipse book that they think should definitely be in the movie.

Below is what they listed.
Do you agree?
Did they miss anything?
What scene are you most looking forward to seeing in the movie. I’m sure most of the regulars readers here know I am dying to see the tent scene. It is my favorite scene in the entire series!!!!

1. Charlie passing notes between Bella and Jacob. – To me this just shows how bad things got between Jacob and Bella. And just how bad its hurting Jacob (Arggg, I cant believe I just said that because I am so not a Jacob fan. Team Edward all the way!!)

2. All of the newspaper articles about Seattle. – If we didn’t have this then a lot of people who didn’t read the book would be very lost.

3. The trip to see Renee. – I think this is a must because, otherwise Renee would never see how Bella and Edward act together.

4. The English note conversation.- Ok I’ll admit it, this isn’t a major thing but I just love the scene so much. I had to throw it in here, plus it’s a good follow up on the trip.

5. Save the Olympic Wolf/ Jacob scene – This Scene shows how much Bella misses Jacob and the fact that you have to work fast when there’s a psychic vampire involved.

6. Angela and Bella – Its nice to see Bella hang out with other people, other than the Cullens.

7. Alice kidnapping Bella – The amazing Porsche finally comes into play. Bella and Alice get to spend more time together. Also Rosalie becomes a little bit like-able.

8. Jacobs school rescue. – it’s a nice little touch.

9. (MIA) Room – When they really start to realize that someone is after Bella

10. Knife incident – Edward gets to be light-hearted and funny.

11. Bon fire – Bella first gets the idea of the third wife

12. Jasper’s Story – Who doesn’t love hearing about Jasper’s past, plus it helps Bella understand being a newborn vampire a little bit more

13. The kiss – Jacob trying to make Bella realize that she loves him to, so he kisses her. Really how can this not be in it. And a bonus Emmett gets to have his very famous funny line.

14. The bet – I know that this one is small, but I like it

15. Graduation/party – A lot happens Bella figures out some major information and everyone finally gets to see the Cullens’ house. Jacob also makes Bella a bracelet (which I own)

16. Training – MAJOR

17. Comprise – MAJOR, MAJOR. Hello this is like the biggest must have ever. I say every little detail should be in the movie.

18. The tent – Bella realizes she loves both Jacob and Edward

19. The fight – need I say more

20. Poor Jacob – Jacob’s whole right side of his body is broken. Bella gets to spend time with him alone. it’s a very cute scene

21. Planning – Alice finds out she gets to plan a wedding.

MTV’s List of The Top 10 Movies And TV Shows Most Looking Forward To In 2010

Leandra — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 20:17:21 +0000

MTV Hollywood Crush has an article where they list the top ten TV shows and movies they are looking forward to in 2010.

See the complete list here.
Below are ones with Twilight cast stars in it and Eclipse and what they had to say:

8. “Remember Me,” or “When Edward Finds A Blonde”

Keeping in line with chick-flicks we’re excited for is Robert Pattinson’s newest non-vampire film, “Remember Me.” Not only is it Rob’s first chance to show to the world (in wide release) his acting capabilities, but it’s also starring some of our favorite people. Emile de Ravin! Pierce Brosnan! Chris Cooper! It’s March 12 release date will hopefully satiate our “Twilight” needs for at least a week.

7. “The Runaways,” or “Bella’s Side Job”

If after a week you’re still itching for more “Twilight” love, Summit was nice enough to release Kristen Stewart’s and “The Runaways,” on March 19. Wasn’t that generous? A chance to see the two rocking out to “Cherry Bomb” in the rock ‘n roll biopic is enough to get us into the theaters… but if Kristen runs her fingers through her hair or bites her lip one more time, we might need to enroll in an anger management class.

4. “Valentine’s Day,” or “The Movie Starring Everyone and Their Mother”

Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift uh, make out. Also appearing (in alphabetical order) are: Anne Hathaway, Ashton Kutcher, Bradley Cooper, Emma Roberts, Eric Dane, George Lopez, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, Julia Roberts, Patrick Dempsey, Queen Latifah, Shirley MacLaine and Topher Grace. The end. In case you couldn’t keep track of our list, please re-visit the family tree we created when the cast kept growing.

2. “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,” or “Another Record Breaker”

“Eclipse” is the one book in the “Twilight” series that truly lives up to the hype (Action! Romance! The supernatural!), and is sure to reach a wider audience then both of its predecessors and sustain its income a bit longer than “New Moon” did. Really, if you’re reading this list, you’re sure to not need any explanation for why June 30 is a date to look forward to.

Eclipse included in Fandango’s list of most anticipated movies of 2010

Leandra — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 19:46:28 +0000

Fandango has an article talking about the ten most anticipated movies of 2010 and Eclipse is included in the list, well duh!!!! Everyone wants to see it, LOL!!!

Below is what they say about Eclipse.
See the whole list here.

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse

June 30th can’t come soon enough for Twihards who are pining to see more of a vampire-human-werewolf love triangle. The stakes are higher as Victoria, a bloodsucker bent on revenge, builds her own army to kill Bella. You can count on Edward and Jacob to serve up the beefcake in IMAX proportions, too. Third time’s a charm, but we’ll have to wait and see if this most-anticipated flick will phase into another record-breaking weekend.

Los Angeles, CA – December 9, 2009 – IMAX Corporation (NASDAQ: IMAX; TSX: IMX) and Summit Entertainment announced today that The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the third film in the studio’s Twilight franchise, will be released to IMAX® theatres simultaneously with the film’s launch on June 30, 2010.

The crystal-clear images coupled with IMAX’s customized theatre geometry and powerful digital audio create a unique environment that will make audiences feel as if they are in the movie. The film franchise is based on the book series by Stephenie Meyer.

“Twilight moviegoers will have a whole new way to experience this next installment of the series, with the enhanced image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience putting them IN the movie,” said Richie Fay, Summit Entertainment’s President of Domestic Theatrical Distribution. “The IMAX release puts us on the event film calendar for 2010, and we’re very excited to work with IMAX to bring a new kind of film to the IMAX theatre network.”

“Our 2010 film slate continues to fill out with strong titles, and a film from this incredible franchise is a very welcome addition,” said IMAX CEO Richard L. Gelfond. “This title fills a valuable spot in our 2010 summer release window, and will no doubt thrill IMAX audiences.”

“We’re very excited to work with our new partners at Summit Entertainment to transport the very loyal and enthusiastic Twilight fans into the world of the Volturi via The IMAX Experience,” added Greg Foster, Chairman and President of IMAX Filmed Entertainment. “With our growing theatre network, we’re poised to take advantage of the rapidly growing fan-base devoted to this dynamic, cutting edge series.”

In The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger as Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob – knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella is confronted with the most important decision of her life.

Interview with Kirsten Prout – Lucy in Eclipse Movie

Leandra — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 01:31:09 +0000

LimeLife has an interview with Kirsten Prout. Kirsten will be playing Lucy in the Eclipse movie. Lucy was part of Maria’s vampire army.

Read the entire interview here.

Here is an excerpt:

She says of her character Lucy, “The character is extremely predatory and what’s amazing about playing a vampire is you are a predator and you lure in your pray and then you turn on them” and believes she was partly chosen for the role because of how pale she is! They didn’t have to do any air-brushing on her because she’s quite pale enough.

I loved her in Kyle XY, I loved that show too, I miss it, anyways it will be fun to see her play a vampire she was such a good girl on Kyle XY.
