Twilight Superfans BlogDISPLAYING POSTS WITH KEYWORD TAG: EDWARD. Asked what he's looking forward to in "Eclipse," Rob Pattinson answers, "Bella's little bit of treachery." And Twifans 'round the world squee, "The Tent Scene!" The MTV reporter who clearly did not do her research then goes on to ask him about his upcoming film "Remember Me," stating that it's "sort of very similar...maybe, has some feelings of 'Twilight' to it..." ["Remember Me" and the "Twilight" films are similar the way "About A Boy" and the "Batman" films are similar.] Fortunately for her Rob was gracious and just lightly laughed it off, but you can see he's quick to move on, presumably to find someone more informed to talk to about his body of work.

Entertainment Weekly chatted up Tish Monaghan, the costume designer for "New Moon" and "Eclipse." Does she dish on whether Edward Cullen is a boxers or briefs guy? Or if they needed the Jaws of Life to remove the wolf pack's snug denim cut-offs? Well, no. But she does talk about a lot of other very interesting costume-related issues! Some juicy bits about costuming Robert Pattinson: At the very beginning of the film, he has one school outfit, and then there’s Bella’s birthday party and disaster strikes. So Edward ends up in that same costume for the remainder of the film. I was thinking of just putting him in a dress shirt and a pair of pants, but Robert wanted to be in a suit. So I found a modern contemporary look that would be appealing to him and to the massive fan base, a very slim cut, and a fabric that to me was a bit Old World — this beautiful tweed fabric that we got out of England. It had the gray base, which is kind of essential for the Cullen characters in their cool tones, but also had little interesting flecks of blue, which is also Cullen, and a tiny little bit of rust, which I liked because Bella wears earth tones and that kinda linked her into the picture. When he goes to sacrifice himself, he’s in disrepair. Robert and Chris wanted his shirt to have a rip across the chest, so that’s what we gave him. It’s really kind of tragic to watch him take off his shirt, because he really is sacrificing himself. It looks like he’s just giving up. He’s exposing himself and he’s completely vulnerable, and he just takes his shirt off and he drops it at his feet with his eyes downcast. Then he gets attacked by Bella, who shoves him inside the doors. [Laughs] I don’t find it like a beefcake moment. It really is a moving moment, and I think Robert did a really amazing job for that scene. And more juicy bits...this time on Taylor and the wolf pack: They wanted the shorts as close-fitting to the leg as possible, whereas the natural tendency of the guys would be to have something baggier so that they didn’t look like they were wearing hot pants. [Laughs] So if I knew they were going to morph, then they had tighter-fitting shorts, and if they didn’t have to morph, then we would give them something a little bit looser and longer. There were lots of Levi’s, American Eagle, Old Navy. Quite honestly, I tried to shop where I figured the wolves would shop. [Laughs] So we went to Wal-Mart. Everything was geared towards making sure that his [Taylor's] arm muscles really showed. There’s a scene where he’s working on a motorcycle, and his muscles are really pulling against this plaid shirt he’s wearing. He looks very strong and very built, and we tried to do the same with this T-shirts. There was no way since it was the same actor that we could show somebody that had grown like six inches. So it was Chris Weitz’s genius idea to tailor his clothes, to make the sleeves a little bit shorter, a little bit tighter — make it look as if he’d grown out of his clothes in a couple of months and hadn’t had time to go get new ones. There's a whole lot more on the Volturi and the Cullen women. Read it all here. Follow @TwiSuperfan! LAST UPDATE BY DAZZLEDBYTWILIGHT AT 11/30/2009 11:09:50 AM This week's Entertainment Weekly features three covers, letting you choose whether you'll pick up the Team Edward, Team Bella, or Team Jacob issue.    An excerpt from this issue, which hits the stands on November 27: “I DON’T KNOW HOW THE BEATLES FELT BUT I IMAGINE IT WAS CLOSE TO THIS,” ROB PATTINSON TELLS ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY NEW YORK – Hot off the tail of the New Moon premiere, this week’s Entertainment Weekly explores the phenomenon that is the Twilight series. Chris Weitz opens the door to his beach house looking like a wilted rose. He’s unshaven, pale and wearing clothes he appears to have found wadded in a ball on his bedroom floor. It’s exactly the way you’d expect to find the director the morning after his movie The Twilight Saga: The New Moon opened around the world to numbers no one thought possible. But Weitz isn’t recovering from a long night of revelry. He’s just exhausted. In the last ten days, he’s been in more time zones than the sun, on the last stretch of promotional duties for his movie. “I’m at the point of physical collapse,” says Weitz, 40. “Hopefully I will now lapse into obscurity. That’s my plan.” Read more at Robert Pattinson Life. Follow me @TwiSuperfan!

And the Vanity Fair editors a nice bottle of Patrón. Why? Because they've given us yet another round of outtakes from Rob Pattinson's photo shoot for the December 2009 issues. And there's one last set to come...squee. Here are my favorites:  Why is Rob eating so hot? Because we rarely get to see him eat. In the "Twilight" films he doesn't eat food (not sure yet if I want to see him drain a mountain lion).  Hair, hands, 5 o'clock shadow, smoldering look--it's all here.  This is SO Robward in SO many fan fic stories. Kind of angry and emo, slightly caveman, very brooding. One of these days I will tell you about a little story called "The Office." Just you wait ;) See the rest of the photos here. If you missed my earlier posts on Rob in Vanity Fair, they're here: And follow me @TwiSuperfan! LAST UPDATE BY DAZZLEDBYTWILIGHT AT 11/25/2009 12:33:24 AM  Taylor Lautner will be gracing the cover of Rolling Stone's December 10 issue, along with a wet T-shirt and an 8-pack. Here's an excerpt from the accompanying article: What Lautner has done is turn his love of martial arts into superstardom as werewolf Jacob in the Twilight series. “This could have happened to anyone who played Jacob,” Lautner tells RS. “It’s Twilight. It’s not me personally.” But his hard work is inescapable: he started learning karate at age six and moved on to Xtreme Martial Arts, relocating with his family to Los Angeles to pursue acting and stomaching the bullying that came along with it. He put on 30 pounds of muscle between the first two Twilight films. He found time to shoot the upcoming Valentine’s Day with Taylor Swift, with whom he “instantly clicked,” he admits. “Aside from being beautiful, she’s extremely funny, charismatic and fun to be around.” But as Strauss discovers, Lautner is quiet and guarded, more of a Zac Efron than a Lindsay Lohan, as far as young stars go. “He’s so picky. I was the first person who got him to eat sushi,” New Moon costar Kristen Stewart tells RS. “He’s very set in his ways. But that is very informative of his personality. He’s very steady. He has a really solid sense of himself.”  The rest of the article, along with more from the beachy-keen photo shoot, are all here. Follow @TwiSuperfan!

She asks them some fun questions. See if you can guess what Rob and Taylor wear to sleep, birthday suit or pajamas? LAST UPDATE BY DAZZLEDBYTWILIGHT AT 11/23/2009 9:47:09 AM Ok, be truthful now. "Twilight" was all about Edward, but you've got to admit that "New Moon" is way more about Jacob and all the possibilities he holds for Bella. Seeing Taylor Lautner's nekkid upper body for two hours may or may not have influenced your stance on this. Although Edward does have his own time in the shirtless spotlight during the Volturi scenes... Still, let's remember how Edward left Bella. "You're no good for me, Bella." Ouch. And how Jacob became her sun, basically saving her from herself. All so she could go and save Edward from his suicide-by-Volturi plan. And even then he still won't agree to change her.

LAST UPDATE BY DAZZLEDBYTWILIGHT AT 11/22/2009 3:21:28 PM |  ABOUT THE SUPERFANMyriam Gabriel-Pollock When I was a kid my favorite movies were Star Wars, The Sound of Music, and Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger. I like to think that my tastes have grown more sophisticated by now, but I may be delusional. I do see movies and read books in a wide range of genres, and I enjoy them immensely. But when it comes down to it, I love the escapism and otherworldliness that fantasy brings me. I can't yet discuss The Deathly Hallows without choking up. I've watched the Lord of the Rings trilogy so many times that the DVDs might actually be wearing down. I get a wistful look in my eye when I think about the Arthurian legends. And when I watch Twilight, I actually giggle like a schoolgirl when Edward first walks into the cafeteria. Hey I'm not a nerd, I'm a geek. Huge difference, right? So I love geeky games and gadgets. But I am also very social, I love clothes and makeup, I can sing and dance, I like the outdoors, and I enjoy my drink. I guess that makes me...a well-rounded geek? WYSIWYG. More about me.
