Bel Ami… The Little Movie That Could

I’m starting to feel like Bel Ami is like the ‘Little Engine that Could”. It keeps trying to push up that mountain, and we all keep on hoping it will make it. It’s definitely been a crazy ride so far, but as long as we keep getting these little gifts, I will enjoy it.

I’m gonna assume this is a still from early in the movie, since SPOILER ALERT 1) he appears to actually be writing (we all know he quits that later in the book); and, 2) he just looks younger and slightly rougher. More like a man still on the bottom rung then on the top. Either way, Rob continues to look all yummy in this period clothing.

And, a potential bright spot on the site with this image… there is a document on the site that lists a potential release time frame… autumn. Could mean anything. They could even be completely wrong. However, using this marketing background I have, this is how I would do it…

Of course, we all know the first round of Breaking Dawn will be out in November. The end of November to be exact. That means sometime in October, the madness from the Twilight fans will begin to set in. They will do anything to see some part of the movie… even if it’s just a little piece of Rob in the little indie film that could. No, I am not above using Twilight promo to help benefit our little engine that could. It makes good sense. And maybe the Bel Ami people are thing that. Or not. Who knows?

All I know is this, give me Rob sexing it up in a period piece soon, or mama is not gonna be happy. And you don’t want to see mama when she’s not happy.

What do you all think? Can you make it till the end of the year? Or were you kind of hoping for a summer release in order to spread the Rob out through the year?

Oh, and speaking of Twilight, this sweet girl sent me an email about her dissertation where she is surveying fans. So, if you have a spare 5 minutes, help her out and take it!


The Year of the Shagdaddy??!! @theshagdaddy — Guest Post by Stephanie

I’m definitely starting to feel the effects of a Yellow Alert. It’s been a full week, so we can safely move into this level, yeah?

Frequent guest blogger Stephanie sent me this last week, and I had to post it cause anytime someone gets on to my husband other then me, it kind of rules!

So it’s the New Year, and I’m hoping it’s going to be a better year for me because really, last year, not so great. Not horrible I guess, but it definitely could have been better. To cap off my year, my New Year’s Eve did not go as planned to say the least (Christmas tree came crashing down in my living room and then my car decided to break and needed to be towed. REALLY? FML). So I’m hoping that’s not a sign of things to come. But it has me thinking, what are my wishes for this New Year?

Well of course there’s this wish. Why not?

On the Rob front it’s shaping up to be a great year and that is a VERY good thing. I mean come on, we are going to get Water for Elephants. After all the waiting and drooling we’ve done, we are finally gonna get it and I for one am super excited. It will be a little strange though. Up until November we will all be Team Jacob. That’s something I don’t think I’ve ever said before. Weird! Hopefully some time not too long after we recover from the hotness that is Jacob Jankowski we’ll be killed again by Bel Ami and Georges DuRoy *fingers and toes crossed* and this is also a VERY good thing!!! Super smexy time with our man, yes please!! After this I think we will need a great deal of recovery time, not to mention a whole new panty supply before November comes and we get Breaking Dawn Part 1 and are back to team Edward (feathers, broken headboards, bruises, SEX and no fade to black please and thank you). Phew, sounds like an outstanding year to me so far.

First Jacob,

then Georges,

then Edward. So many Rob’s so little time!

So I ask, what could make it better? What could possibly improve this year full of Rob goodness? I can’t think of much, but, oh, maybe this one thing . . . MORE SHAGDADDY POSTS!!! Yup, there, I said it. Amber asked, and I listened. Maybe we need a man’s perspective a little more often in RMW land. I think we do. We can fan girl and he can man crush. The two just naturally go together hand and hand like peanut butter and jelly or me and Rob (he just doesn’t know it yet). Do you see what I’m saying?? And do you all agree??

Jumping Rob agrees!

Well, do you agree?! Guilt him in the comments! Go on. DO IT!


My 2011 Rob Resolutions — Unrealistic and Damn Near Impossible, Just the Way I Like ‘Em

Gah. It’s that time of the year. The time when I need set some resolutions for the year and for this here blog. After a winning year last year, it’s kind of hard to follow up. Now the resolutions get a bit crazier and much more unlikely to happen. Well, that is unless I turn into crazy stalker fan, which you never know.

So anyway, here it goes…

Rob Resolution #1 — Meet Rob. Duh.

Why make unreasonable resolutions? Why not?

So, now that I have seen him in person, I want to some how make it happen where I actually meet the man. This may be the hardest resolution I have for the year. The one I feel like is least likely to happen, but dammit, I’m gonna give it a try anyway. It’s good to aim really high, right? Plus, it’s always good to have one really unreasonable resolution to make the other ones seem much more achievable.

Rob Resolution #2 — Make it to a non-Twilight movie premiere/film fest/whatever.

This will be hard, but probs not as hard as #1. And I probably need to make this one happen in order to even have a shot at #1 happening, right? There has been talk in the RMW household about making a trip out to LA in April, but I’m pretty lukewarm on this happening. However, if Bel Ami screens at a film fest, that might be more reasonable. And maybe, just maybe, a certain someone will show up. A girl can dream.

Rob Resolution #3 — Change my blog header sometime before May. And change it more often.

I kind of feel like that house that is bringing down the neighborhood. There is always one. The one that still has freakin’ reindeer in their front yard and you are wearing shorts. So this is important… changing the header. And soon. But I don’t just want to change it once. I kinda want to play with it a bit more and change it up more then twice a year. Who knows? Maybe I’ll do a full change on the layout as well (don’t get your hopes up!).

Rob Resolution #4 — Get TheShagDaddy to give us his opinion more often!

Nothing is more refreshing then a man’s opinion on this whole crazy world of Rob. TheShagDaddy (TSD) does not get swayed as easily by how pretty Rob is and is therefore a much better opinion on things then me. Cause srsly, I have to watch trailers like 10 times just so I can move past Rob and see what it’s really about. Plus, men who talk about Rob and Twilight and all these other girly things are just cool. I will make this one happen, meaning I will withhold “stuff” if it doesn’t happen.

Rob Resolution #5 — Start the Norman’s Rare Guitars street team with Moon from LetterstoRob!

Okay, honestly, this is not really my resolution. This is LTR’s resolution. But damn, they pulled me into this mix when I got called out for “liking” Norman’s on the Facebook on my personal account. Luckily, Moon did the same thing on her personal account, thus saving me the embarrassment of it just being me that was a lame-o. So I guess we gotta make this happen. Let’s see… we need a Facebook page,  a forum and of course a fan point system so we can make this happen!

Rob Resolution #6 — Keep having fun at Rob’s expense!

Some days, I’m not gonna lie, it kinda feels like a chore to write this. I  don’t like that. So my resolution is to keep having fun. And if I’m not having fun, then take a break. But for right now, let the good times keep on rolling!

What do you think? Can I keep them? What are your Rob Resolutions?


It’s Time for My Letter to Santa Again

Dear Santa,

Gah. I can’t believe I completely forgot to write you a letter sooner this year. Life’s been hectic, ya know, but it’s still two days before Christmas so I got time.

First off, I have to say, mildly disappointed that last years letter went unanswered. I mean, c’mon. I only wanted one thing. It’s okay. Maybe it’s for the best. I got plenty of other cool Twilight goodies instead.

But this year is a new year. So, all is forgiven, and I’ve been especially good so I’ll make my requests this year slightly more realistic. Slightly.

1. The FULL video of Rob’s performance from Songs from a Room. In 1080p HD blue-ray awesomeness. And can we get a commentary with that as well? Yep, cause this minute of music heaven just isn’t enough for me…

2. A plane ticket to LA for the week of April 15 (Note: I write this blog the day before I post, so at the time it was still April 15. And since it’s not confirmed that it’s moved, I’m just gonna leave it.), and you know, maybe a ticket to a little premiere that’s happening sometime around then. Water for Elephants ring a bell for you? Actually, can you make that 2 tickets? TheShagDaddy has to come along since that is our anniversary week and all that. Plus, even he wants to see this shiz. Who doesn’t? Have you seen the trailer?

3. A release date for Bel Ami. I don’t need tickets or anything else. I just need to know that the movie will be released some time in the near future in the U.S. I promise I won’t tell anyone else. You can just write it on a piece of paper, wrap it up and put it under a tree. It would be preferable if you’d write the date on the back of a still of Rob making sexy times on the set.

See Santa? I am soooo much more realistic this year. What was I thinking last year? But this year, I think I knocked it out of the park with this list.

Eagerly waiting for Christmas morning,

Amber

Have you made your Santa list yet? Quick! Add your requests to the end of mine! I’m sure Santa can take care of it for you… as long as you’ve been good. Like me!


I’m Looking for Water for Elephants, I Get Bel Ami… Eh, Not a Bad Trade

So, I waited. And I wished. And then I realized… the Water for Elephants trailer ain’t coming. ::sigh:: I guess Francis Lawrence has adopted the same philosophy as me when it comes to the statement “very soon.” Which stinks. My only hope at this point is he knows it’s out there so he’ll try and hurry it up.

But I will say, if I had to trade off the trailer for something else Rob-related, I think Bel Ami stills wasn’t too bad of a deal. I mean, it’s not a trailer, but at least it’s something. And a hot something at that. And something is always better than nothing!

Ooooo... dirt.

Oh book readers, we know this scene! But in fairness to those who haven’t read it, I won’t spill the beans. But the leather gloves. Damn. I did not anticipate leather gloves. I wonder if they are Isotoner. Hmmmm…

The hair and the burns are a little bit weird if I’m being totally honest. There. I said it. But you know what? For the hot sexy times and the suits and the arrogant asshole-ness we’ll see in the movie, I’ll be able to deal with the creepy hair.

And then, while this still is Robless, we do get a good look at all the ladies…

Hello there ladies!

And I’ve finally come to grips with the fact that it will probably be mid-2011 before we get this movie. Which makes me ridiculously sad panda. How will we get through this? By revisiting the other stills as well…

Ah, lounging Rob!

Sexy times!!

Who’s ready for sexy times Rob? And shall we start a pool on the WfE trailer? I call dibs on December 21!


Bel Ami… What is the deal? Why am I being teased? Someone give me something!

Gah. I hate teases. Do not tease me. And this dude, well, he is just a big ol’ tease:

::le sigh::

Making out, sexing, Rob… all in approximately 3-5 minutes of promo footage? Oh my! I don’t think the run time has been released, but my best guess is 90 – 120 minutes of pure hotness!

How am I supposed to think of anything else now? All I can picture is naked Rob. This is not fair.

The worst part? We don’t even know if any of what ol’ Steve has seen here will be released anytime soon. The video is out there, just looming around and not being seen by people that matter. Like me. Oh, and you guys too.

So, how are we to survive? Off these couple of stills??

I mean, yeah, they are hot. But I need a trailer. Like, oh, yesterday. I’m just saying, that would be an EXCELLENT way to throughly end the Rob drought. I’ll even settle for the promo footage. Surely there has gotta be some Hollywood big wig who won’t mind leaking that out for us. I mean, job, schmob, right?

I guess I’ll just continue to settle for this fanmade trailer.

Are you gals a bunch of eager beavers like me? Do you NEED more Bel Ami news?!?


Rob as a Serial Murderer? Maybe. We Shall See.

Can he pull off evil?! We may see...

I promised I would talk about this. You didn’t think I was lying did you? Did you? Shay?

Word on the street is Rob has got a script in his hands. An adaption of the book The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner. And the source on this is pretty good, I would say. It comes from the Herald Scotland, an interview with Peter McDougall, who wrote the adaption. He says…

“I’ve got Tommy Gormley, who’s directing in America now, (Star Trek, Independence Day) and people such as Patrick Doyle agreeing to do the music, and Connolly and Coltrane have agreed to put their names to it. It’s currently with Twilight star Robert Pattinson, and Kelly MacDonald, who are looking at it. If Pattinson agrees it should go ahead.”

It’s funny. Sounds like the whole movie is up to Rob and if he wants to do it or not. That is some star power.

So, like any good little fangirl, I hopped on over to Amazon and checked out what this book is actually about cause I have no clue. And after reading the description, it kind of sounds like it’s right up Rob’s alley.

One of the supreme masterpieces of Romantic fiction and Scottish literature, The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner is a terrifying tale of murder and amorality, and of one man’s descent into madness and despair. James Hogg’s sardonic novel follows a young man who, falling under the spell of a mysterious stranger who bears an uncanny likeness to himself, embarks on a career as a serial murderer. The memoirs are presented by a narrator whose attempts to explain the story only succeed in intensifying its more baffling and bizarre aspects. Is the young man the victim of a psychotic delusion, or has he been tempted by the devil to wage war against God’s enemies?

The ammoral thing jumped out at me, since we all know Bel Ami is about an extremley ammoral character, Georges Duroy. I’m guessing he is up for the role of the young man, whose name is Robert Wringhim (yeah! no need for weird nicknames!), this summary speaks of. This is a very old book, and in some ways, I can see where this might be a comfortable choice for him since he just did Bel Ami.

But here is what I need to know… this stranger that looks like him. Is it him? Like would they just have two Robs on the screen simultaneously? Cause I will support that 100%! And the idea of him taking on something that makes him evil is kind of exciting. Not just sleep around evil like Duroy, but truly evil! That would definitely set him apart from the whole Twilight business.

I don’t know. Sounds like a movie I’d be very interested to see him in and see how he does it. And let’s be honest. Unless Unbound Captives moves forward, Rob has nothing on deck for after Breaking Dawn. No worries. I know we’ll get an announcement sooner or later for something he is working on since he’s the IT boy of Hollywood right now. But it would be nice to hear something sooner rather then later.

What do you girls think? Can Rob do evil? I mean REALLY evil? Or would you rather see him jump head first into a totally different genre of movie, like a romantic comedy?

And is it really any surprise that the book is now almost sold out on Amazon? (The answer is no.) But remember, as old as this book is, you should be able to easily find an eBook online for free if you want to check it out.


Rob, Sex, Bel Ami, Drunk Christina Ricci. @BoydBlog Breaks it Down!

Labor Day means vacation day for me! Plus, BoydBlog sent this to me and it was too awesome to not use today. I mean, anytime we can talk about Rob and sex is good, right? RIGHT!

Let me just say two little words, that will mean a hell of a lot to some people. 

Bel Ami.

I think this movie is going to be the death of me. For starters, we’ll see Robert Pattinson fucking women, young women, women our age and older…and he will be nasty and he’ll be looking fucking hot (I will never look at a pear the same way after reading the novel), and he’ll be angry and we’ll want to hate him. He will basically be the exact opposite of the restrained, in-control and totally PG13 Edward Cullen.

We had a glimpse of Robert as the real life SEX GOD in Remember Me; the angsty hot guy that slams his girlfriend’s back into the fucking hallway wall, and basically mauls her. UNF!

So, do you think you can deal with a fuck-hawt Georges DuRoy…?

Well, let’s take a look at Christina Ricci in the photo below, shall we?

Please don't tell me filming is over. PLEASE!

She had spent time on set being in an ‘on-screen’ relationship with our SEX GOD Robert, *cough* I mean Georges. So, how did she fare? She got to do what we all dream and fantasize about – kiss, touch, simulate sex with…she is a living breathing woman, but she is also a professional actress. She knows that Rob is an actor; playing Clotilde in Bel Ami was just another role, right?

So tell me, what do you think you would do, if you, as part of your job as an actress, got to fondle and kiss, touch and simulate sex with Robert Pattinson?

You wouldn’t be able to deal with the fact that after the filming finished, he walked away and you are left with the realisation that you had touched the fucking God – you had kissed his sensual mouth, you had felt his long soft fingers and caressed his smooth skin, got to touch his tousled hair, but then the Director called ‘cut’ and reality set in. She couldn’t have him for real.

Poor Christina.

So she went and got totally shit-faced.

Would you? Would you be able to deal? I think not.

So, I toast you Christina and I can only imagine what you went through. We will never get to do all of those things with Rob (um, that’s why we write and read FanFiction)…but you did, and it nearly killed you right? You turned to alchol and God knows what else to deal with it, or try and blank it from your memory?

When I am in the cinema watching Bel Ami, I will be thinking about poor Christina, and I’ll be relishing the fact that the Edward I write in my Fanfiction will only ever be a figment of my imagination, because to actually live through that, to experience Robert Pattinson in any form, would be the death of me.

Hell, for me, seeing Rob just a couple hundred feet away was almost the death of me. No really. I fangirled like a mofo. Luckily, very few people saw that. Phew!

Plus, I mean, Christina is just like us. She knows to report back immediately. I love that she told everyone that she thought Rob was a ‘Really Good Kisser’.

Now, leave some love for BoydBlog, and some words of sympathy for poor Christina. You’ll survive Christina. Keep hope alive!

P.S. You can follow BoydBlog on Twitter, and did you catch that she is a FF author? Check out her FF goodies!


Fanmade Trailers and the Regular Rob Video Goodness… Lots to Watch for You!

This week’s videos are kind of divided up. Of course, I have the best Rob videos I could find for the week, but I also have what are pretty much the first fanmade trailers for Bel Ami and Water for Elephants. So you have lots to watch today and for the rest of the weekend! Enjoy it ladies (and gentlemen?)!

First off…. YAY FOR FAN MADE TRAILERS! Yes, that was all in caps because I really did just yell it out loud. This is sort of the best part of the in between after shooting before the trailer comes out. We get to see everyone else’s interpretation of what the movie will be. Plus, it just makes me more excited for the movies!

I had to share these first and foremost, just because not only are the good, but I’m hoping they will spur video makers on to make even more!!

Bel Ami Trailer

SweetDKvampires has put together a really good little piece here! Rob’s previous sex scenes are very limited (to one really), so the filler around it was really well done. Seriously can not wait to see what the real deal looks like, but until then, this one definitely fills the void.

Water For Elephants Trailer

And kudos to OhLogan for knocking outta the park for this one! The circus clips and using Hal, who will actually play the older version of Jacob, is just awesome.

And now… on to your regularly scheduled Rob hotness!!

Robert Pattinson – Ring my bells

This one from Tanitataniru is very much an NSFW video (Not Safe For Work, for those not hip to my jive lingo). Does it make you want to watch it even more now that I’ve said that? I mean, just after typing that I’m thinking I should watch it again. I will say, I think I saw a couple manips in there. Normally, I don’t post vids with manips, but they were so fast and hard to see that I didn’t let it ruin what is otherwise a really hot video!

Rob Pattinson – Let me see you stripped – finished

This one is safe for work, if you are able to handle being completely turned on while sitting at your desk. Okay, maybe not safe if you share a cubicle or something. All I know is, after the teaser last week, I am so freakin’ stoked that Lostimortal2 finished this video! This one is, wow, it is majorly hot. Quit reading. Start watching.

Rob Pattinson • I would die for you, my love

So the song lyrics may be a bit extreme, but the quality of this vid from LuCiiJB is really nice! I love all the eyes towards the end, even the ones with the bushy brows. Plus, the effect she used it pretty cool. Very dreamlike.

Did you see any good videos this week? You must share in the comments! Do it. Do it now!


Rob for Christmas? We Can Only Hope…

What is the best Christmas present ever? Yeah, I know. You won’t wake up magically that morning and see Rob sleeping next to you. Sorry.

But maybe a movie where you can easily visualize Rob being in bed with you?

Protagonist Pictures says Bel Ami is gonna be set to deliver in December 2010. What? You mean I will get one more Rob movie this year?! That’s three, THREE for the year! With the only one that will (most likely) come with an R rating coming (heh) around Christmas. Merry Christmas to me (and you, too)!

Yes, Rob will be playing an asshole. Yes, his character will use women. Yes, I will ultimately hate the main character of this movie. But hot damn if he won’t look good doing it!

Yeah, who wouldn't want a piece of that.

The 'burns have you in a trance...

Yeah for the nut hugging pants!

You ready? Cause I am more then ready. Eclipse DVD and Bel Ami? Can winter get here any faster?!

Oh, and p.s.

Forget all the crap you hear about Bel Ami not having a distributor in the U.S. Stop signing petitions and just hang tight. It’s gonna happen, just be patient. We have no idea what the behind the scenes is, and peeps are making this assumption that no one wants it. Really? REALLY? Listen, if Bel Ami does not get a release here, I will take my Robward cutout and reenact TheShagDaddy’s date with him. ‘Kay?
