A Twilight Halloween party will be the talk of guests for weeks to come. With these tips, and Stephenie Meyer’s fabulous books as guides, your party will delight Twilighters from beginning to end. Happy Twilighting!

 

Quiz | Forks | Review.. =\ | BD + Fringe


»ReelzChannel has a new quiz for Twilight fans, take it here!

Fangirls are eagerly anticipating the big screen version of Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight, the publishing phenomenon that grew into a series as fast as Harry Potter’s exploits. (Faster, we’re sure die-hard Twilighters would argue.) As the bumped-up Twilight release date nears, and the frenzy grows more intense, we thought we’d do our part. Today, we offer up a new Twilight Quiz designed to test your knowledge of all things Bella and Edward.

»Independent- “Teenage Kicks at the Box Office”

But these are just a taste of what is to come. One of the most buzzed-about projects in Hollywood is Twilight, a teen-centric Vampire drama adapted from a mega-selling series by Stephenie Meyer. While vampire novels tend to be associated with black-clad, mascara-plastered men, Meyer’s fanbase is comprised overwhelmingly of young women.

»Update on StephenieMeyer.com.

A few weeks ago we announced the new editions and books coming out in the next few months. Only two of them currently have release dates on Amazon.com, so I thought I would post links to those two so that you can read what they’re all about. The Twilight Saga: The Official GuideTwilight (Mass Market Paperback) comes out on October 28, 2008. And, speaking of the Twilight Saga, if you haven’t ever been to Borders Twilight Saga page, and you have some time to kill, I would suggest checking out some of their exclusive videos.

»Pattinson Online has reported this:

After speaking with Rob’s management yesterday, we are able to confirm that Rob has shot another Entertainment Weekly cover. This time he will be alone and they assure me it will be a better photo! No news yet as to when it will be published, but we’ll keep you informed.

»AceShowBiz- “Twilight New Scenes Vizualing the Cullens’ Back Story”

Providing more details to the extra scenes shot a while back, “” stars Robert Pattinson and Kellan Lutz open up to MTV News and confirm that the reshoots are indeed flashbacks. At 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, they noted that the scenes will help to explain the background story of the Cullen family. About it, Pattison revealed, “The reshoots are basically flashbacks that can go [along with] big voiceovers. Well, not voiceovers, but big scenes that give the exposition and back story of the Cullens.” Giving out more, Lutz confessed that it is the visualization of the old peace treaty made by a family of vampires and the Quileute Indian tribe saying, “It’s more about the treaty, and really summarizing what that really is.”

What do you guys think? I’m thinkin this sounds really cool. Personally, Im hoping for it be in New York! Like I said before, nothing ever happens here. Well, there was the BD concert in NYC, but I couldnt go to that. Haha.

»True Blood Wiki has a list of the Most Infamous Vampires of All Time. Guess who’s on it!

VAMPIRE NAME: Edward Cullen
SIGNATURE LOOK: Dead sexy
MOTIVATION(S): The love of his life- Bella Swan
POWERS: Telepathy, enhanced strength, speed, reflexes, healing VULNERABILITIES: Discovery
TYPICAL HUNTING GROUNDS: Olympic Mountains TYPICAL PREY: Animals – not humans
POP CULTURE APPEARANCES: Twilight Series – Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Breaking Dawn
PORTRAYED BY (OR SHOULD BE PORTRAYED BY): Robert Pattinson

»Myspace has a video from the red carpet of the VMAs. Paramore and Rob are in it. They ask Rob if he’s seen the final cut of the movie. His answer? “I havent, I dont think it’s even done yet.”

»Mtv has a list of ‘Fall Flicks.’ While Twilight isnt there, I found this awesome.

‘W.,’ ‘Eagle Eye,’ ‘Quantum Of Solace’ And More Non-’Twilight’ Fall Flicks On Our Radar.

“Our 10 most anticipated movies of the fall season — and yes, there’s even more to the fall than that little “Twilight” flick you might have heard us talk about from time to time — are right around the corner.”

[A Note: When they call Twilight 'little,' its a joke, an oxymoron, you know? Like calling something the opposite of what it is. My perfect example: On The Office, Andy is always saying, “I went to a little place called Cornell, ever heard of it?”]

[EDIT]

»I found two articles about “True Blood,” the new HBO vampire televison show, comparing it to Twilight.

Is True Blood the Adult Substitute for Twilight?

True Blood is the Twilight for the Over 17 Soap Opera Crowd.

Small Bit of News


»USA Today’s Best Seller List puts the Twilight books at- 1. Twilight, 2. New Moon, 3. Breaking Dawn, and 5. Eclipse.

»BellaandEdward has recieved this info:

“I am a former assistant manager at Hot Topic, and I heard first hand from the regional manager for SoCal that Twilight will be the biggest license Hot Topic has ever carried. Anyone remember all the merchandise they carried for Harry Potter? Twilight will have even MORE merchandise in HT than that. You can expect the amount and variety to escalate as Christmas approaches. Things such as Twilight notebooks, fragrances, binder paper, apparel, jewelry, pajamas (no joke) etc will be carried. Also, it’s in the works to get more Forks merchandise, as well as merch featuring the Cullen crest. Unfortunately, they’re only allowed to carry merchandise from the first book, so that means they won’t carry (yet) Bella’s bracelet, engagement ring, etc.”

»“Rupert Grint a Fan Of the Twilight Books?” Yay!
