Twilight Superfans BlogDISPLAYING POSTS WITH KEYWORD TAG: SAM. Awesome new exclusive from MSN Movies, this clip has Chris Weitz talking about the wolves' special effects, and Alex Meraz and Chaske Spencer discuss the bond between the pack. Is it November 20 yet? LAST UPDATE BY DAZZLEDBYTWILIGHT AT 10/28/2009 3:06:51 PM Quite a photo, eh? It's my early Cinco de Mayo gift to y'all. USA Today gives us our first glance of the Wolf Pack in character, and these guys would make anybody's temperature run up to 108.9 degrees: "Four actors — Chaske Spencer, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Bronson Pelletier, all with Native American heritage — join Taylor Lautner, 17, who returns as a hairier, scarier Jacob Black. The plotline finds Jacob growing closer to a distraught Bella (Kristen Stewart) after her vampire beau, Edward, runs off. Among wolf pack job requirements: the ability to work half-naked no matter what the weather in the Vancouver, B.C., area, where the film has been shooting for several weeks." I've been curious as to how they are going to do the CG effects to make these guys look like the giant, scary wolves in New Moon, and I got my answer: "No amount of weightlifting, however, would allow them to act out the wolf portion of their performances; the beasts are about the size of horses and race around on all fours. Instead, the transformations are computer-generated, although one part of each wolf might seem familiar. "They all have the actor's eyes," Weitz says." See the whole article here, and the accompanying piece here. LAST UPDATE BY DAZZLEDBYTWILIGHT AT 4/22/2009 8:14:20 PM Singer, songwriter, actress, artist Tinsel Korey has confirmed her role as Emily Young, Sam's scarred girlfriend, in New Moon. Her MySpace page confirms this. The page also has video of her performing at the 2008 Aboriginal Achievement Awards--she's got a great voice! I wonder if she'll have a song on the soundtrack; her style would definitely fit in the movie somehow, somewhere. And I think it would add a bit of authenticity to a scene...maybe Bella and Jacob on First Beach or something? She definitely looks like Emily--pretty and serene--and they wouldn't need to do much to her hair or makeup (other than the massive claw scars on one side). What do you guys think? LAST UPDATE BY DAZZLEDBYTWILIGHT AT 4/22/2009 11:35:54 AM Myriam 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.
