Sometimes, it’s okay for there to be no news. And right now, this is one of the those days where I’d prefer the no news option to the horrible, rumor filled crap that has caused 90% of my posts on my Google reader to be speculation about Rob and Kristen.Yesterday, I just ignored it. Today, I feel like I have to do something. That something is my decision to boycott blogging for today. I hope you guys can appreciate what I am doing here and understand. This is the only thing I have that will make any kind of minutely small impact, so I have to take it.
But I don’t want to leave you with absolutely nothing. You do get one absolutely smokin’ Rob picture just for stopping by. Love you guys, and back to my regularly scheduled programming on Monday.
One bad thing about the porsche...no back seat! Oh well, the front seat at least lays down, right?!? Oh well, gotta get creative!
Rob gets caught cruising around in a Porsche. Nice!
Well, maybe not that nice.
He has admitted on numerous times that he really can’t drive. So maybe it wasn’t a good idea for the car rental company to let him take this car off the lot, at least without insuring he bought that nonsense insurance policy they always try to pawn their customers.
Or maybe Rob decided he would take advantage of the “Cash for Clunkers” program and trade in the old ratty BMW for something a bit more “mid-life crisis-y”. No, wait, this Porsche is most likely not considered a fuel efficient car. Dang it Rob, don’t you care about the environment!
Mmmm…. It’s so late at night and that’s when I find the best stuff for my blog! This video just made my night and the song is perfect. Enjoy this with your morning cereal and coffee!
More videos from this awesome video maker after the jump! Continue reading
So, are you completely over Comic Con yet? Well, I don’t care. I’m going to make you relive the entire day over again, but I promise that it will only be the best parts. Cause I am awesome like that!
First on the Comic Con plate are all of MY favorite pictures! Surprise, surprise, they are all of Rob!
What is all this craziness? Everyone thinks Amber is here, but she is not. I would know!
Of course, if any of you tried to watch the live stream of the press conferenced (which by the way was a total fail and never happened), you know the frustration that I experienced! Anyway, here is the whole thing for you to love and enjoy!
The New Moon panel was not live streamed like the press conference was supoposed to be, but lucky for us G4′s Stephen Johnson did a live blog and tried to explain through words what he was seeing. We got some great lines like:
“Fan to Rob: Would you ever do open-mic nights for music, ever again? Rob: Yes. I’d love to do it again. It’s good for your soul.”
“Robert Pattinson says machines do his acting for him. Hmm.”
“Fan: Question for Robert Pattinson: Are you going to do any comedy in the future? Rob: I’m not that funny… I can look like an idiot, but I don’t know if I can be witty.”
Read the entire blog here. This was all we had. It was kind of sad, but I guess better then nothing. Kinda wish a female had been writing it. She would have explained all the important parts better, like the clips. Luckily, Rotten Tomatoes summed them up perfectly!
Clip #1
Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) and Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) are bent over an antique light blue motorcycle. Jacob wears jeans, a brown t-shirt, and his hair is long. As Bella sits on the motorcycle, Jacob guides her hands (touching!) over the handles. “Brake. Clutch. Gas,” he reminds her. Bella revs the engine. “Slowly release the clutch,” says Jacob.
Suddenly, Bella sees the translucent apparition of Edward, a concerned look on his face, standing in front of her. We can see him, but also see through him. Bella takes off on the bike.
As she zooms down the road, Bella gains speed. She zooms by another apparition of Edward, standing in her path. She speeds by another. Losing focus, Bella swerves and falls from the bike, hitting her head on a rock.
Jacob speeds over to Bella on his own bike, coming to a stop with a flourish. He hops off the bike and rushes to Bella’s side. She is bewildered, and blood gushes from a gash on her forehead.
“Are you trying to get yourself killed?” Jacob asks. Bella apologizes for the blood, but it doesn’t bother Jacob
And of course, what would a convention be without some horrid, 2nd-hand embarassing stuff?!?
He takes a step back, the camera following his every move. Jacob strips off his shirt, revealing a six-pack, and bends down to dab Bella’s wound with it. Their faces come very close.
“You’re so beautiful,” she tells him. Emotion flashes across his face.
END SCENE. TWILIGHTERS SCREAM.
Clip #2
Alice and Bella are winding through the streets of Volterra, slowed by massive crowds of townspeople in red robes, celebrating the festival. Bella jumps out of the car.
“You’re the only one he can’t see. He’ll be under the clock tower. Go!” says Alice.
Bella races through the crowded city. We see her at times in slow motion.
She fights her way through the crowd, stopping at the fountain in the middle of the square. In slow motion, she looks up to see Edward, slowly unbuttoning his shirt just moments away from revealing himself in the sunlight. He opens his shirt to expose his pale chest. (And his abs. Very nice abs.)
Bella screams out to Edward. “Stop! Stop! No Edward, don’t!”
He takes a step forward.
END SCENE. CROWD GOES WILD.
I must say, I do love that both scenes involved the leading men taking off their shirts. Well played Summit, well played!
UPDATE!!!!
The clips have been found! I knew someone would pull through for us and that person was inuyashasfanaticlove. The quality is poor and its obvious the girl recording is uber excited (not that I wouldn’t be!), but who cares. I squeed in my office at work at Edward’s apparition!!
Clip #1
Clip #2
*blacks out*
And of course, it wouldn’t be a convention without some promo stuff that is so 2nd hand embarrassing!
Who wants a BK crown to show there support? Yes, I'll have a Whopper and a Team Edward crown. Save the Whopper Jrs. for Team Jacob!
Are you ready? My dear, sweet husband has offered some guy’s insight to Twilight. As you all know, he has been reading the series and was a featured unicorn on Letters to Twilight. And, wow, he really has some great thoughts. But hey, you aren’t here to hear me talk, so now, the man of the hour, my first ever guest blogger… TheShagDaddy.
Three books down and only one to go, but f*ck sake does it have to be so much thicker than the others? I would have waited until the entire saga was before doing this blog for Amber but I feel I won’t read it as fast at New Moon and Eclipse. Amber tells me that the Twilight/Twitter world wants a guy’s point of view on all this craziness known as Bella. I will do my best to oblige to the request but seeing as I have never blogged at all before who knows how this will go.
Let me start by saying that I watched the movie before reading the books, I have always hated the idea of being one of those people who are like ‘Hey that’s not how it went in the book!’. Okay, so I actually saw the movie three or fourteen times before reading the book (can’t get enough of that Kristen Stewart) but the real reason for reading Twilight was to mess with the wife. I figured I could learn some things that weren’t in the movie and when we discuss the movie I could sound super in tuned to the plot and picked up on things that only true Twilighters would know. I was able to get a shocked expression a couple of times and I think she was getting wise to me, but she probably just thought I was getting info off the net. I will say it wasn’t easy to secretly read the book, because I didn’t want the book to come up missing by taking it to work so I would read it a little bit at a time while Amber was playing Guitar Hero. What made it hard is that our 3 year son would see me reading Twilight and yell ‘ THAT’S MOMMY’S BOOK!!‘ and I would quickly hide under the chair in case she heard him but amazingly she never did. Finally, I realized if I admitted what I was doing that it might increase my odds of getting laid and I still feel like that’s true. However, after telling Amber I was reading Twilight she got overly excited because we would be able to talk so much more about the book than we could about the movie. Great, that’s what I wanted..to talk to the wife. But honestly I got hooked on Bella and Edward pretty quick and finally had to take the book to work just to get extra reading time in. I’ll tell you that it wasn’t easy to bring a book to a production shop filled with guys who only knew that teenie boppers read the book. But I told them the reason and they laughed but left me alone for the most part.
More hubby goodness, including his rants on the movie vs. the book after the jump!Continue reading
Keep away tweenies! You know I have a soft spot for the Twi-moms!
Yesterday, the heavens opened up and a light shone down on all of us, ahem, real women, when I read this “quote” from Rob:
“I need to stay away from women born after 1988…”
Alright, I admit. This quote may or may not be legit, cause it came from some chick who was at the same bar as Rob (maybe) and swears she over heard him say this over all the loud music, peeps talking, etc. But play along with me, cause I’d like nothing more than for the quote to be actual fact, because, surprise! I fall all too easily in that category.
But Robbie, you may need to set yourself some higher standards then just born after 1988, cause there is plenty of other criteria that will separate out the best from the rest. So let’s not just say before 1988, but more specifically, in 1981, in the month of September, on the 20th day, sometime between the hours of 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. And maybe that someone is from the Midwest, in the state conveniently nestled between Texas and Kansas, in the city that is the capitol. (By the way, if you any of my readers fit this criteria, you should email me. Turns out, we were most likely separated at birth! )
You know what I like best about this whole 1988 business…kind of a big blow against the Robsten crowd. Cause guess who was NOT born before 1988… Kristen! Ha! I win, you lose!! (I love my Robsten peeps, by the way! You know I just poke fun at it all!!)
Since, I’m feeling a bit like Renee and am “literally repelling technology” (i.e. iPhone AND home internet down at THE SAME TIME!!), I need to go to my happy place. Where is that? Oh, I think you know.
First off, I need to laugh.
Then, I need to just cry. (Happy tears, of course.)
Of course, I need to just reflect on the good things in life.
And finally, just fall in love all over again! *sigh*
Hope you enjoyed! This made my day just a little better…
Uh oh Bella, what kinda dirty things did you have planned with sweet, innocent Jake?
So, I’m sitting here thinking, “Good Lord, I only watched this trailer about 250 times, how could I possibly not spot something like this?” The next thought, is this some kind of photoshopped screencap to make us all laugh. Yep, time to watch the trailer again to see if I can spot it myself:
And here is the screencaps I took, an attempt to make sure this is all legit. And guess what?!?
They were right!! I see London, I see France, I see Bella’s underpants!! As Rob would say, NAUGHTY!! (Thanks Random Acts of Rob!)
Hopefully, editing peeps are paying attention and go ahead and take care of this before the final product, but personally I find this absolutely hilarious. Not only do I not really picture Bella as a “thong” girl, but I really don’t even picture KStew that way. She must have had some dirty plans for ol’ Oregano (not Rob, you know I’m not down with Robsten, sorry!). Cause, let’s face it. NO ONE wears a red thong unless they plan on getting some. It’s just a fact.
But hey, I’d much rather see KStew in a thong then with her bong. (Hey, I’m a poet and didn’t know it!) Oh, and yes, I feel dirty and slightly pervy for writing this post. AND I’m well aware Rob is NOT the main feature today, but hey, this whole Twilight business has “robbed my world” too, so it all works! And since it’s pretty obvious I’m turning into a Kristen fan (SHOCK!), then she gets to be playfully made fun of the way we all do Rob.
If you paid extra special attention to the MTV Movie Awards, you would have noticed a very odd choice for a song being played when they showed the clip of Twilight before the announcement of “Best Fight.” It was by and far, my favorite 80′s song EVER… Take on Me by A-Ha!!
Thus inspiration struck, so I decided to try and make a video again. I think this one is WAY better (mainly cause I bought some software that is pretty cool)!Oh, and there is A LOT of KStew…get over it, I think I may like her now.
ENJOY!!!

I am still fangirl-ing like crazy right now, but I am going to try and write this post anyway. If there are random squees or black outs, I’m sorry. I just can’t help it!! SQUEEEEEE
First off, let me just say that I CANNOT remember the last time I watched the movie awards. I feel confident saying it’s been years. But look what Rob and Twilight have done to me. I’m sitting here squeeing like a little fangirl, shaking with anticipation, watching the New Moon trailer about 20 million times and have already downloaded it to my computer for future viewing!
So here is what is going to happen… I’m going to do this in order of the night and it let’s you RELIVE my experience… which was AMAZING!!! SQUEEEEEEE
Best Fight
Yeah, we could totally kick your ass...or at least our stunt doubles can! (Source: Pillowbiters)
First Twilight award, and of course, Rob and Cam take it home!! Was anyone REALLY shocked? No, but I was still squeeing cause we got the first real taste of Rob, starting off the night right! YES!!! Afterwards, Rob said winning the award made him “feel tough…and hard.” I.AM.DIED
Best Breakthrough Male Performance
And I'd like to thank all the ladies over at LTR, for keeping it real...real hard. (Whoops, did I just say that? Yep, I did!) (Source: FakerParis)
And finally, some alone time with Rob for all of us. *sigh* And his little comment about his pants…I can’t even remember because all I heard was pants and then I lost all track of what was happening. SQUEEEEEEE!!! And he was too cute with his little list so he wouldn’t forget anyone. *swoon* Alright, I better move on before I pass out…
Best Kiss
First off, before I go on, does anyone else think its funny that KStew made out with both the guys on stage? Oh, I guess if you haven’t seen Adventureland yet, then I gave something away. Whoops!
By far the hottest acceptance speech of the night (if not EVER!)… I.AM.DIED! Please relive below via screencaps!! (Thanks Random Acts of Rob!!)
MORE AFTER THE JUMP, INCLUDING THE NEW MOON TRAILER!!!
