Hello, and welcome to the world of New Moon. I’m getting that you all weren’t really around last year during the Twilight stuff, and that’s cool cause truth is, I really wasn’t either. But, now that we are here, I’m gonna need to teach you a few things before you can possibly continue on with this. I mean, really. You all are starting to embarrass the hell out of yourselves.
1. It’s Robert Pattinson, that’s P-a-t-t-i-N-s-o-n.
I swear, if I hear one more reporter talk about Robert Pattison, I may shoot them. Or my television. Or nothing, cause I don’t own a gun, so I’m just going to stare at my TV and into the eyes of the idiot reporter’s until their heads blow up.
Yeah, listen, they say it. Pattison. Oh, and I watched it live and the banter between the reports AFTER this clip, they said Pattison AGAIN. ::facepalm::
I don’t know. I’ve been contemplating going to the Eclipse premiere, but watching the New Moon premiere last night has made me afraid. So very, very afraid.
I watched the MySpace feed, which was the most reliable with most likely the least amount of screaming. Unfortunantly, I had to put up with Anya Marina and her complete inability to work the red carpet. Seriously, I think any of us could have done a better job. Did you know she had a song on the New Moon soundtrack? Did you know she said about 10 times what scene it plays during? Did you know that I may have issues with listening to that song now even though I really liked it? Ick.
I do know that we got some eye candy from Rob last night, which made me happy. He was looking fantastic in a suit and some scruff. Hair was perfection. All around, very yummy.
But hey, don’t take my word for it. Check out these photos here and I’ll let you be the judge!
Yes, I know this blog is short. Yes, I realize I have been neglecting you, my babies. But I cannot even express how much the premiere wore me out. Not even being there and I am exhausted.
So, I know some of my good friends were at the Premiere. I need stories. I need them in the comments. Or you need to email me so I can post them on the blog. Or something. C’mon ladies! Spill it!!!
I’ve contemplated several days about this, deciding whether or not I wanted to write about this or not. But, seeing how people keep asking my opinion on it all, I think I should do this and I’ll let you allfigure out what you think.
Last week, MTV sent me a press release about 2 new shows they are planning on showing later tonight, one called “Love Bites” and “New Moon Revealed.” Here are the descriptions they sent to me:
“Love Bites” gets up close and personal chronicling the budding rumored romance between Pattinson and Stewart from its early stages through present day. MTV digs into the archives to give viewers a look at their first, very intimate audition on a casting couch and their first interview, where the two candidly talk about nights spent together. Hitting the streets of Vancouver and Portland where the films were shot, viewers will find out what goes on when the cast has down time and what local bars, restaurants and locations they frequent, as well as hear from people who see them when they are off camera. From rumors of an engagement, to nasty break-ups and even nights with other celebrities, the love life obsession with the cast is at an all-time high, so when it comes to “Twilight,” love certainly bites.
In “New Moon Revealed” MTV News will continue to provide fans with unrivaled access to the “Twilight” saga. Hosted by Kim Stolz, this 30-minute special will be anchored from “New Moon” mall events in Los Angeles and Chicago, and will prominently feature the die-hard fans of the series as they gather to get close to the actors they’ve worshipped from afar. In the show, MTV News will countdown the five hottest, most burning questions fans of the “Twilight” series want answered — from exploring how stardom has changed Robert Pattinson, to finding out whether Kristen Stewart is on Team Edward or Team Jacob, to telling the behind-the-scenes story of how Taylor Lautner almost lost the role of Jacob, MTV News has all the answers.
So, I really have no issue with the latter of the two, other then I am getting a bit burned out on all the New Moon and I probably won’t be watching it. Friday is coming up fast and furious so I don’t need all this piblicity now to hold me over. We are almost there! ::happy dance::
But this whole “Love Bites” thing is kind of rubbing me the wrong way. After I read the description, I felt a bit sick about it all.
With the explosion of media every single day, I am having a very difficult time choosing an overall topic for my post and running with it. There are too many different things I could do, and if I waited till tomorrow on anything, there would be even more good stuff I wouldn’t want to not talk about. And the cycle continues…
So today is another “things I learned” type of post, cause that is all I am probably going to do until the madness starts to slow down a bit.
It’s all after the jump, cause this stupid video auto starts. Grrr… Continue reading
No, I am not blogging about the pictures. I will link you if you don’t know what I am talking about right here.
Plenty of other stuff came about yesterday, so I pulled the best I could find to try and help distract you from the above pictures! In fact, I actually learned other things yesterday from all the press crap going down. Wanna see? of course you do…
1. If you try to talk to Rob for a full 3 minutes, you can count on having the hammer dropped on you.
It’s shame, cause Rob doesn’t exactly answer questions quickly, but you better hurry it on up if you want to talk to him. Start approaching that 3 minute mark and I swear you can hear the “get the hell off the stage already” Oscar music.
If I’m dying, I think this may be a good way to go. I knew it would be bad on Friday. I knew the media circus would end well, at least for us the fans.
Rob did not disappoint. And if you haven’t seen me much this weekend, it’s because I have been in a Rob-induced coma. (What? This is a very real disease. Do not doubt me.)
But do not fear my Rob-hards, I want to help you. I am hear to tell you exactly how to avoid sending yourself into this very same coma! So pull out your notebooks and pens and take notice.
1. Do not, I repeat, do not add “Robert Pattinson” to your Google alerts.
This apparently is a big no no, especially with the onslaught of media that is surely coming down the pipe. Used to be, it was like a little mini present every time I check the alerts, but Saturday I woke up to 327 alerts. Yes, that’s right. 327 delicious links all leading to things like these:
Um, hey there. Can I have a seat there?
Oh my, the hair porn will be my death!
Fair warning, there is a video after the jump that will auto start. Sorry about that!
You can not expect much out of me today. First off, I was off the computer much of the day and then I come back to well over 300 Google alerts. And the pictures. I need some private time with the pictures.
So I am taking it. But I will share with you. Much love and hopefully I will be fully recovered tomorrow! (P.S. Rob in leather is a majorly huge win!!! Must buy TheShagDaddy some leather for Christmas!)
Yesterday was amazing. This week has been amazing. There has been no shortage of disappointment if you are a Rob fan. So this weeks videos will all be from his promo stuff. Cause let’s face it. Rob just being Rob is the best!
Some videos start automatically. Sorry about that. They are all after the jump!Continue reading
This behind-the-scenes picture from the shoot for the New Moon poster made its way to the interwebs:
And it reminded me of something. I know you are all Rob fans (if not, what the hell are you doing here) so maybe some of you might at least sympathize with me…
I was not necessarily in favor of TayTay continuing his role as Jacob after Twilight.
::ducks the fan girl pitchforks and snaps pics to send to Chris Hansen::
That box, damn that box just reminds me of it soooo much. When I pictured Jacob in my head, TayTay did fit him perfectly… in Twilight. But, he never fit for the rest of the saga, for me.
Maybe it’s because I pictured Jacob as basketball-esque in stature (you know, really effing tall) and I knew, no matter what, TayTay could not make himself grow in height. Hence the box, which is what makes him taller then KStew, although still not as tall as Rob. And when I reread New Moon, it talks about how Edward has to look up at Jacob because of his height. Gah, why do I care this much?
I know, it’s lame. I shouldn’t be so hung up on it because I don’t know anyone that will fit the part. TheShagDaddy said I was being ridiculous when I brought this up to him, and I know it’s bad when he says I am silly. I mean, he is the most anti-Team Jacob person I know! If he can accept it, I should too, right? I am just struggling…
And I do have to give TayTay mad props for working his ass off to keep the role. In that aspect, he totally deserves it.And I’m sure once I sit down and watch New Moon for the first time, I will totally be convinced.
So, we all know there were about a bazillion and one mistakes in Twilight, but what did you think of this decision? Have you been Team Taylor from the beginning, or did you kind of think his role might be better played by someone else? And be honest! We are all friends here.
No Jacob. I will NOT watch any more clips of the New Moon movie with you!!
Last week, Moon wrote a letter to Summit, taking a stand to no more New Moon spoilers. I respect that and I was leaning towards taking that same stance.
Then it happened. The freakin’ “break up” scene took the Internet and Twitter by storm. One of the most pivotal scenes in the book just out there, for everyone to see. I was pissed. Why? I wanted to watch it SOOOOOO bad, but at the same time I knew it was wrong. So I didn’t watch it and eventually ‘Big Brother’ Summit rolled up and took it down anyway, so it didn’t matter.
Yesterday (or what is really today as I write this), the big post-birthday kiss is leaked. You know, the one that is described as being ‘so passionate, like you will never kiss again’ kiss. Yeah, that one. Leaked. People are sending me links to the thing. Describing the noises Rob is making. NOISES PEOPLE!
But I am strong.
Robward is best enjoyed on the large theater screen. So I will wait. I will go in Nov. 20 free and clear of having seen any of those scenes that really make New Moon what it is. In fact, I’m even making myself NOT watch the scenes I have already seen. Those noises you all keep talking about? Yeah, the first time I hear them will be hearing it through super Dolby digital surround sound.
The way God intended.
But I need your support to stay strong, and lots of non-New Moon related Rob to make it through! I need distractions, and lots of them. Or maybe just these 5 to get me through…
Distraction #1
Twilight Robward kissing scene – If I want an effing award winning kissing scene with it’s own brand of noises and hotness, I will be here.
In fact, I actually learned other things yesterday from all the press crap going down. Wanna see? of course you do…
