Los Angeles, CA, December 7, 2008 – Summit Entertainment and director Catherine Hardwicke jointly announced today that the filmmaker will not be directing the next installment in the newly minted TWILIGHT film franchise. Summit’s targeted end of 2009 or early 2010 release of the film, NEW MOON, does not work with Ms. Hardwicke’s required prep time to bring her vision of the film to the big screen. Thus as has been done before with many successful film franchises, the studio will employ a new director for NEW MOON.
"I am sorry that due to timing I will not have the opportunity to direct NEW MOON,” said Hardwicke. “Directing TWILIGHT has been one of the great experiences of my life, and I am grateful to the fans for their passionate support of the film. I wish everyone at Summit the best with the sequel-- it is a great story."
“Catherine did an incredible job in helping us to launch the TWILIGHT franchise and we thank her for all of her efforts and we very much hope to work with her on future Summit projects,” said Erik Feig, Summit’s President of Production. “We as a studio have a mandate to bring the next installment in the franchise to the big screen in a timely fashion so that fans can get more of Edward, Bella and all of the characters that Stephenie Meyer has created. We are able to pursue an aggressive time frame as we have the luxury of only adapting the novels into screenplays as opposed to having to create a storyline from scratch.”
That really sucks about CH. I'm afraid of the new director not having the vision that CH had for this series. And that he'she won't stay true to the books. Like someone mentioned in the last thread, fans will be rabid. I will just be sad.
I wonder if it was a joint firing/quitting as she isn't a big movie director and this next installment has a lot of elements to capture and perhaps she didn't feel she was up to the task and Summit agreed.
Either way I liked CH and I just hope they find someone whose vision is dynamic enough to bring NM to life.
"Summit’s targeted end of 2009 or early 2010 release of the film, New Moon, does not work with Ms. Hardwicke’s required prep time to bring her vision of the film to the big screen."
It's funny that this is the statement Summit released. Didn't CH just say in an interview that she was hoping to have it done by late 2009 or early 2010? I call bullshit.
I really hope they aren't just trying to crank the movies out as quickly as possible just to make money while everyone is still Twicrazy. But it wouldn't surprise me. I just hope the special effects are better in this one and the movie keeps the same vibe.
Dana - I agree with you. I do remember CH saying that the timing would be early 2010.
I'm not sure how to feel about this. Wonder who Summit is talking to about taking over? Is there another director out there who would have the same true passion for the books that CH had?
On the upside I guess...errrr I dunno how I feel about all this yet really...
Ok well...I guess the next 2 or 3 (making them all is the more likely option because this is Hollywood and they have the opportunity to make this franchise huge - so yeah I'm counting BD in this) - So for the rest of the films I guess they need a director who can handle the big job that lies ahead?! I liked Catherine, she's a cool lady and a good director. However, I do see in some ways why they are doing this. This is supposed to be an EPIC story after all. Plus it's not a new thing, so many franchises have done this and are still brilliant and then some...
I'm sad for her though. I'm sure it will be hard for the cast to say goodbye of course. But then again they are professionals and they know how the business works, they have to keep rolling these films out...
Amy yikes your avitar and my avitar should kiss a little, they'd make a nice couple.
I hope they are able to bust a 2009 Christmas time release for NM. I think they can pull it off. I just hope the special effects improve, as for directing I thought CH did a pretty good job.
Script needed major work for me. I have an early copy of the script of Twilight from Feb right before shooting, and they cut so much good stuff out.
The Cullens were more involved in my copy and that is one thing I missed a lot. If anyone wants a copy of this script let me know and I will email it to you.
I will send ya'll emails of the script come Tuesday as I forgot the copy is on my work email. But I will get it to you for sure. You'll be as disappointed as I am that they cut so much.
Yes Guillermo Del Toro for Eclipse and BD would suit me fine. I'm sure they will make BD of course they will. They see dollar signs and not much else, however I say it now and I have said I'd before. Del Toro to direct or BD is going to suck.
Ellie - glad to hear I'm not the only one who watches GoF just for Rob! I've debated on buying the DVD, but haven't been able to talk myself into it yet.
Trixie--We bought it right after it came out, but haven't watched it in about a year. I forgot that I've got Rob just at my fingertips. Wait, I already have him there, right here! :0
Trixie - I never was a big fan of Harry Potter so I never wanted to watch the movies until I found out Rob was in GOF. I read the first book again for my banned books class and actually liked it so I decided to watch all of the movies. GOF should be in my mailbox tomorrow!
Ellie - did you buy the 2 disc set so you have all the extras? I actually got the extras disc from netflix so I could watch the "meet the champions" extra. He is so adorable in that.
Do you have Haunted Airman? I totally caved and bought it.
Dani--so sorry! But it's true, Del Toro is co-writing a vampah novel (The Strain) and also writing the script for the movies of "The Hobbit". Then he will be filming both movies for a whole year and yada yada yada..
But I agree with you, he could have been brilliant as director of the sequels!
Dani - very cool. Looking forward to reading it - thanks again for offering to send it to us!
Sabrizzle/Ellie - see that's why I love coming here. Now I wouldn't feel so ridiculous to buy GoF. If I'm going to be robsessed, it only makes sense that I own all of his movies, right? Yeah, that's reasonable :)
Guess that means I have to buy BMH now, too. And, maybe have to buy Penelope so I can have the Twilight sneak peak. Have I gone too far now?
Trixie--Yes, it's the 2-disc special edition. I live it when you follow Rob on the set and he reads from the script ("Harry, What are you talking about?").
There's a link on Robsessed's homepage, for THA, as well as TBMH.
Trixie--You can watch the penelope clip on The Borders Books website. I think it might be Borders.com/Twilight not quite sure, though.I t also has the trailers, behind the scenes footage,and interviews.
Okay...I thought I was the only nerd who had the 2 disc set to GOF just to watch Rob in the "Meet the Champions" extra!
I so love you ladies right now. I feel very vindicated!
The funny thing is that even though I own the movie...when I saw it listed in the T.V. guide, I was all "Woo Hoo! Goblet of Fire on tonight...gotta watch.." Then reality set in and I can watching any freaking time I want, pause it, rewind it, freeze it...relish it! Rob Rocks CEDRIC!
I just had a feeling that CH wouldn't be on board for "New Moon". Too many mixed reviews. She rocks the teenage angst thing...but Summit now has the moola to get a bigger name director. Hey...it kinda worked for the "Harry Potter" franchise.
Mike Newell did a fantastic job with GOF! Not that I'm prejudiced cuz Rob's in it and everything...
Trixie--I will love you all and every day of my life if you can tell me where did you buy THA :))
My best girlfriend is in UK visiting her boyfriend, she's going to buy me the TBMH DVD and maybe she can also buy me THA.. oh, what a lovely Xmas gift!
Ellie/Dana--I don't see anything about Rob "going to the right or the left".. LMFAO!
Confessions of a cougar...That's when Dan Radcliffe starting getting just a little bit this side of yummy.... Such an inappropriate crush...
I watched GOF the first time because of Dan. Then just like my first time seeing "STAR WARS" (I thought Mark Hamill was the bomb, until Harrison Ford slid into that booth in the Cantina and unleased both his voice and smile...)
All of a sudden...ROB! Jesus, Mary and Joseph on a rubber raft... The heavens opened up and I was undeniably hooked, lost, and forever a Rob fan.....
Mich--It was very brief, and the wind was kind of blowing.maybe it was the wind on the trunks, but I don't think so...or I'm just wanting it to be so! LOL
Trixie...don't you love the way he said "spectacular"? And the way he moves his hands to show the coil action..... I'm so hooked on that damn interview!....
At the end of the meet the champions he has a black beanie on. Do you guys think it's the same one he wears now. If it is that thing has got to be so soiled.
I just watch him talk 24/7, how the hell did women who crossed his path, not get enchanted? I just simply don't get it. I can see he's not perfect but I really, really don't get it. Rob Pattinson comes up and tries to chat me up and his is going all out and I'm going to ignore him? I just really can't even imagine it. Where they blind? I'm seriously trying to figure this out. Did he have bad breath? I'm shaking my head, did they miss the jawline? Was it dark in there? Did he act like a dork? I am stupdified.
Jules I read back on all the comments I've missed since Fri. evening and I see you saw the Jackman, Australia, and they miled it for all it's worth.His "body" gawd. Right?
Me too Sabrizzle. If I was sitting next to him on the plane I would notice him getting emotional, If I was his woman I would FEEL his emotions always and I get him. I GET YOU ROBERT PATTINSON!!!! I would be there for you and understand. I've been there flying over the MOnterey Peninsula heading to college and being so damn homesick I could spit. Listening to everyone having a BBQ while I am in a new city alone. Then a freaking guy gets a crush on me and of course I don't feel the same and have to hurt someone now. I went on one freakin date with him. Big mistake. But I was so lonely. Rob I would be there for you, sugar plum.
I totally get the being homesick thing. California is nice but I miss Washington like crazy because it is home. I'm really glad I get to go back for 3 weeks on Friday. It must be much worse for him because he is so far away from home and he has been away for a longer period of time.
Yes, Jules the way his says "Body" the way he says a lot of things.
Yes to Hugh Jackman's body when he was starting to get on top of NK on the bed and the silhouette of his body, GAWD!
P.S. I am saddened to hear about CH, i love that woman.
I bet Rob is also. But it's an opportunity for him to work with another director and the more directors they work with the more they learn. And Rob is a fast learner. He has big plans on his production company, this will only be good for his career to work with another director.
Jovie...thanks! I couldn't agree with you more. Each book has such a different tone. As much as I admire CH....different visions could be a good thing. It is such a process to create true drama. Every director in a play has taught me so many things. I fully agree that the more exposure Rob has to different visions...the more he will be challenged as an actor!
How many times I've seen surfer dude. Or have had sex? Zero on the sex. I've seen him many time surfing, he's an insane surfer. When he gave me the necklace on the 2nd I told him I'm just in it for making out. I know he's not the one. He doesn't recreational read, unlike Rob does. I understand Rob is an actor and it would behoove him to read, but I know I just need a reader or longterm, we're just not going to last. I need a conversationalist.
See, once again, I feel ya Jovie! Reading is something I find to be very schmexy! I had an old boyfriend that would read his book, I'd read mine while we were naked in bed together. VERY HOT!
I love a man who reads. I love a man who writes...I love a man who plays guitar.... I've had a boyfriend (Or two...whose counting...not me ...Hell NO!) that was able to meet all above criteria!
Yes, and Jules you get on one side of Rob and I the other on my bed and listen to him read to us. I'll put my down comforter over us to keep us warm and we settle in. I'll pour us some rum, to soothe his throat or anything he needs to get comfortable. I'll prop pillows behind him and put my down comforter like I said and make him feel welcomed and wanted.
What I keep thinking about is the big cast and sometimes maybe CH was a little too easy on them. SM I think will be disappointed also, because they seemed to get close. Also, KStew might not want to be too difficult...
lol, Jules, I'd give my left breast for that date.
Nite Trixie, wish you didn't have to go.
Sabrizzle, yes that he admits to tears at a VM concert and flying over London, there just really isn't anyone that is an actor like him. It is really what sets him apart. He's so unique and interesting. He's funny and he's enchanting. Just listening to him talk is enchanting. Look at the behind the scences onGOF, that all of you were talking about, it's not just his accent, it's so much more, his tone, his infliction, they way he'll pause to smile. He is in touch with his feminine side but so, so masculine. He has tons of male hormones flowing through his manly body.
I so want to take care of Rob, he brings out my feminine, domesticating goddess side of me. I want to cook him dinner, bathe him, wash his hair, massage him, tuck him in. The list goes on and on. "I feel very protective of you."
He just oozes masculinity and is so comfortable with it that he is in touch with his feminine side. I absolutely love how he is completely himself, it's refreshing.
See...this is why we get along Jovie...you are succinct...honest...truthful and just down right ON IT GUUURRRLLLL!
Rob appeals on so many levels. We all adore him for so many different reasons. I know why I do...so do all the rest of us here on this blog.
We ALL agree that he is something else. Maybe the reasons differ, but he pulls us all here to chat, discuss, disect and dream that maybe, just maybe there is someone like him out there for us..
Jules I wrote on an earlier thread sorry that I didn't read your comment on Friday nite, I had logged off.
I love Juno and thanks for the compliment that you think I'm sassssy.
You said I have good sarcasm flowing or something like that, thank you. I am a sweetie but I'm not a doormat. I'll be your cheese anytime. Remember that movie "I Just Want Someone to Eat Cheese With."?
Jov, I feel the same way. I want to do his laundry for him, clean his apartment, teach him how to put in contacts, and take care of him in every other possible way.
I mean seriously, where the women who he tried to chat up, clueless, not able to even feel the pheromones? What happened in their moments with him that they didn't want to crawl up his body and sit on his shoulders. I just want to run across a parking lot into his arms, seeing him the other day. Or see him walking on Carmel beach and run and jump on his back and he gives me a piggy back down the beach while we talk and laugh.
Nope...don't know the movie...but enlighten me! I'm six months older than dirt...remember?
Sarcasm...yeah...love it!!!
My 8 year old has now picked up on it and he cracks me up!!! He is learning from one sarcastic beyotch! I just grew up watching too much "Monty Python".....
Okay, maybe I might knock him over I am tall, but I still want to run and jump into his arms still. And when Kstew pulled his hair, gawd, I have always visioned that. But more when I'm massaging him or in bed with him.
Stella-D babe for sure I will send it along to you. Sorry I'm watching GOF and avoiding the boards a bit right now things are insane online with the CH firing thing. But I will be back in a bit.
Hope everyone is enjoying their evening. My hub is ripping on me for my Robsession.
I want to attack hug him like he does to Stan behind the scenes of GOF, but not in a creepy obsessed fan way. I don't understand how some women aren't into him.
Jules when it comes to me you never have to apologize for spelling, if people read me back later, they would go WTF, she's a writer? I can spell I just type fast and don't care. I figure you guys know like the previous post, I typed an extra letter, where instead of were. Life goes on.
It seems like I'm the only Potter fan here, right? I became a Potter fan last year and read the 7 books in 28 days. When I read the 4th book remembered that I saw that movie just for fun with my boyfriend, who got jealous for my "stupid crush with the cute guy". Then googled the "cute guy" but there wasn't much info about him (now I know why..)
Then this year (July or August, I think) I saw a lot of flair in FB saying Edward Cullen this, Edward Cullen that, googled said name and realized there were a whole saga and an upcoming movie with.. guess who? The "cute guy"! Such a coincidence! And the rest is history.. :PP
Oh Sabrizzle, gawd yes, when he ran and flew into Stan's arms, I think I fell in love with him and then the long hug with the girl at the signing convention. That inspired a character for me. I love him.
My friend Joel used to give me great hugs like that but it would be soooo much better with Rob. Gah! I just want to have a long conversation with him while he has his arms wrapped around me.
Yeah...I'm freaking clueless as to how women ignored him? WTF? If a man with that smile, jawline, sense of humor, self-deprecation, marriage proposing, finger raking, Ray Ban sporting, beanie wearing, scruffy faced, infectious laughter, guitar playing, soul singing, talented S.O.B. ever approached me...I'd need a defibrilator!
Mich-- I'm a big Potter fan. I love those books. I became a fan before the fifth book came out, and I bought the last three on the weekend they came out. I absolutely shut down the internet and tv before I read the sixth one, I didn't want people to ruin it for me like they did the 5th. And well, I read the 7th one so fast, I was on my second round when people were just starting to read the first one. LOL.
If he was my husband, there is no way he would ever want to divorce me. I'd always be trying to make him happy because he would make me so incredibly happy.
I would be willing to get to know him and see really how difficult he can be in a relationship.
All fantasizing aside, to know him really well. It's fascinating to him that any woman would "want this?" He's a slob, He's probably thinking do you see the way I live. I bet he is really selfish. Maybe even in bed. I'm just guessing. Don't beat me up for this. Just a thought.
Mich--I love the HP books, too. I started with bk 4 , to read before the movie, went to 5, 6, 1,2, 3 and then 7 when it came out. (4 through 6 in a week...it was summer,and I was on vacaton for two months...).
I would definitely date him for awhile before we got married, I don't want to rush into anything. I know he probably has a bunch of annoying habits, but so do I.
I really don't think he has really even slept with that many people. I think he's basically kind of a newbie, really just kinda getting to understand women and probably just doesn't even know that much about them. I think he respects women and has a good relationship with his mother but I think he wants to beat to his own drum and I like thou that he is def not asexual after the trumpet comment, btw, was hilarius. He's def autoerotic.
I'm kinda psyched about the CH thing. I think fresh blood, so to speak, is a good thing. I know very little to nothing on directing or how movies are made but I thought Twilight looked like it was filmed with an expensive camcorder, ya know? I wanted it to have a more "polished" look, for lack of a better term. I don't know if that has anything to do with the director or not but I just wish the movie had a different "look" to it. Am I the only one??? Don't get me wrong, I LOOOOOOVED it, saw it twice and am DYING to see it again :) OK, I'll stop rambling.
Karla, you pretty much voiced how I feel. CH captured the "first love" thing and all, but when you get right down to it..it was Rob and KStew who brought it to life. The only thing I am forever grateful for is bringing Rob in to do the audition and realizing the chemistry was so there!
It's now time to take up the intensity... They need a director who will milk the feeling of separation, longing, lonliness, madness on the part of Edward and Bella....
Yeah, I like that he's not a total man whore. That's such an unattractive quality. I think he needs to feel a deep connection with someone before he gets to involved.
Jules you pipe it! I dont even remember him in this and gosh he looks like a todler compared to now. Red cheeked youngin Rob.
I honestly dont get the hype with the Potter books or films really, I dont own any. I've seen most of them...I think? Anywho getting my Rob fix. Ben is seriously ripping on me from the other room. It is so annoying.
Dani, the magic comes from the books. The movies leave so many details out. I dunno, I love to read so I can escape real life, and they have such an amazing universe.
Ladies...I beg to differ. My friend Mark who shares the same b-day as Rob is a rampant heterosexual!
He has one of the filthiest minds tempered by artistic genius! I have never met a man who loved or appreciated women more! His mother ...God...I loved her...(she passed from cancer not too long ago) gave him such an appreciation for all women! No matter how young or old.
Now, why do I think that applies to Rob?....You know the answer to that! Rob genuinely loves women. Period. He can pass himself off as incapable...but we all know that if given the chance that Rob would make a pass at any one of us...WOULD YOU SAY NO?
Mich-- I'm looking at your blog, and I'm also reading Ensayo sobre la Ceguera. I'm a bit stuck on it, because all the commas freak me out. I have to re-read every single paragraph to understand what is happening, lol.
I love the HP books! They take you off to such a fascinating world. I thought the movies were awesome, but as always, the books are waaaaaaaaaay better. I read them (the ones that were out then) during the summer of 2001 right before 9/11, when we lived in San Antonio for 4 months while my hubbie was doing flight training. I would sit by the pool, read and tan (bad, bad) all day. It was the life (no kids or job), *sigh*. Then when 9/11 happened and thrust everyone, and especially my husband, into a much more dangerous world, it was nice to have those books as a form of escapism. They were a great diversion and I still love them. Actually, I'm really looking forward to the day when I can start reading them aloud to my kids and enjoy them all over again!
Oh God, Jewels, I'd kill for him to make a pass at me. I already told my husband that if I ever run into Rob and he shows even the smallest atom of interest, I'm doing him, right then and there. Doug said he's ok with that, so I've got that going for me ;)

Ladies have you all seen this yet...
Catherine was apparently FIRED :(
JustJared has info on it...not much but here take a look.
http://justjared.buzznet.com/2008/12/07/catherine-hardwicke-fired/
Ok has Summit confirmed this yet?? Does anyone know??
I was just trying to get caught up and noticed all this info which is spreading like wildfire...
Amy, yes.. Summit has already confirmed it. In the last thread someone posted the link.
Amy - we were discussing this on the Forbes thread. Dani posted something that seemed to confirm it.
Oh Sorry ok! :)
Hee Hee I remember when the top one came out it was the day of the London Premiere and everyone on the train was reading it.
I kept seeing Robs face opened up for my whole journey to work.

Here's Summit's news release tonight:
Los Angeles, CA, December 7, 2008 – Summit Entertainment and director Catherine Hardwicke jointly announced today that the filmmaker will not be directing the next installment in the newly minted TWILIGHT film franchise.

I wonder if it was a joint firing/quitting as she isn't a big movie director and this next installment has a lot of elements to capture and perhaps she didn't feel she was up to the task and Summit agreed.
Either way I liked CH and I just hope they find someone whose vision is dynamic enough to bring NM to life.

Dana - I agree with you. I do remember CH saying that the timing would be early 2010.
I'm not sure how to feel about this. Wonder who Summit is talking to about taking over? Is there another director out there who would have the same true passion for the books that CH had?
Dani, maybe this will help the chances of your dream about Del Toro directing BD, lol.
I liked CH but honestly, I don't see any problem in employ a new director as long as they stay true to the books.
On the upside I guess...errrr I dunno how I feel about all this yet really...
Ok well...I guess the next 2 or 3 (making them all is the more likely option because this is Hollywood and they have the opportunity to make this franchise huge - so yeah I'm counting BD in this) - So for the rest of the films I guess they need a director who can handle the big job that lies ahead?!

Script needed major work for me. I have an early copy of the script of Twilight from Feb right before shooting, and they cut so much good stuff out.
The Cullens were more involved in my copy and that is one thing I missed a lot. If anyone wants a copy of this script let me know and I will email it to you.
Dana--I'm still watching GOF, as well. My eyes and ears perk up when Rob comes up on the screen. He is just so cute! And he can dance.
Dani please e-mail it to me!
Oh yeah, Dani was right on about that. They should get in touch with Del Toro now! :)
Oh Dani, I'd love to see the script!
Dana-- That crooked grin!!!
("It's a nice place to take a "bahth") I ran to the TV screen! :)
Ellie- wish they could have shown Cedric in the bath.
"All of the bubbles nearly gone"
Bad news. Guillermo Del Toro is super busy with "The Hobbit". He will be free 'till 2015 :S
Dani--I'd love a copy. Thank you, love.
And I loved your comment about your avatar and Amy's. Yes, you two should definitely meet...
Dani - LOL at your avatar kissing comment. yes, please email the script to me (if you don't mind)
giancsc@nytimes.com
I had to go check who Guillermo Del Toro is. I loved Pan's Laybrinth!
Dana--Can't wait to hear, "Take my body (long o sound) back to my father. Will you do that for me, Harry?" He's beautiful, all rosy cheeked.
Dana--Swim trunks coming up...okay, girl, get your head out of the gutter!
I will send ya'll emails of the script come Tuesday as I forgot the copy is on my work email. But I will get it to you for sure. You'll be as disappointed as I am that they cut so much.
Yes Guillermo Del Toro for Eclipse and BD would suit me fine. I'm sure they will make BD of course they will. They see dollar signs and not much else, however I say it now and I have said I'd before. Del Toro to direct or BD is going to suck.
Dana--He goes to the right!! :-O
Dammit Mich you just broke my heart! I love Del Toro....he is the shiz!
Dani--you have my email, right?
Thanks Dani, I'm looking forward to reading it.
Ellie - glad to hear I'm not the only one who watches GoF just for Rob! I've debated on buying the DVD, but haven't been able to talk myself into it yet.
Yes, ladies! We have the answer to if Rob goes to the right or the left! The swim trunks in GOF reveal it's the right side.
Okay, how vulgar was that?...
Dani - a "pre-thanks" for sending the script. How did you get it?
Ellie I believe I do babe. I will forward the script to my yahoo account then forward it to all of you peeps.
You know who could tackle BD...? Tim Burton. I like him for the weirdness in BD.
Swim Rob, swim. Soaking wet in trunks...I tried Ellie but my mind went straight to the gutter.
Trixie--We bought it right after it came out, but haven't watched it in about a year. I forgot that I've got Rob just at my fingertips.
Wait, I already have him there, right here! :0
Ellie - LOL! Now I have to watch GoF again. Was he in the next HP movie, as well? I thought I heard something about flashback scenes.
I got the script from someone on the IMDb board a while ago. Its the "blue" copy if that means anything to anyone.
Trixie - I never was a big fan of Harry Potter so I never wanted to watch the movies until I found out Rob was in GOF. I read the first book again for my banned books class and actually liked it so I decided to watch all of the movies. GOF should be in my mailbox tomorrow!
Ellie - did you buy the 2 disc set so you have all the extras? I actually got the extras disc from netflix so I could watch the "meet the champions" extra. He is so adorable in that.
Do you have Haunted Airman? I totally caved and bought it.
Sabrizzle--Don't forget to check out Rob in the swim trunks! WooHoo!
Dani--so sorry! But it's true, Del Toro is co-writing a vampah novel (The Strain) and also writing the script for the movies of "The Hobbit". Then he will be filming both movies for a whole year and yada yada yada..
But I agree with you, he could have been brilliant as director of the sequels!
Dani - very cool. Looking forward to reading it - thanks again for offering to send it to us!
Sabrizzle/Ellie - see that's why I love coming here. Now I wouldn't feel so ridiculous to buy GoF. If I'm going to be robsessed, it only makes sense that I own all of his movies, right? Yeah, that's reasonable :)
Guess that means I have to buy BMH now, too. And, maybe have to buy Penelope so I can have the Twilight sneak peak. Have I gone too far now?
I'll be on the lookout Ellie!
Trixie--Yes, it's the 2-disc special edition. I live it when you follow Rob on the set and he reads from the script ("Harry, What are you talking about?").
There's a link on Robsessed's homepage, for THA, as well as TBMH.
Trixie--You can watch the penelope clip on The Borders Books website. I think it might be Borders.com/Twilight
not quite sure, though.I t also has the trailers, behind the scenes footage,and interviews.
Trixie--where did you buy Haunted Airman?
Aw Mich...he is one of my faves. He is an amazing writer and director...I will mourn for my brilliant choice that will never be.
Bug I am glad that he is writing a novel, and love him directing "The Hobbit" he will take that book to amazing visual extreems.
Ellie/Dana: which scene are you watching now?
Ellie - Yes, that is the best part of the whole thing.
Mich--Crummy commercials!
Harry was just with Dumbledore, telling him about his dreams about Voldemort.
Ellie - oh, yes, I know there are several places where I can watch the sneak peak, but what if those sites take it down someday??? LOL!
Mich - I forget where I got it. Let me do a little investigating and I'll let you know. It was a British site, that I do remember...
commercials
K it's back on. It's Harry talking to Snape in the potion closet.
They're up to the maze.
Mich - found it!
www.classicuktv.co.uk
Dana--I'm at the edge of my seat...
Okay...I thought I was the only nerd who had the 2 disc set to GOF just to watch Rob in the "Meet the Champions" extra!
I so love you ladies right now. I feel very vindicated!
The funny thing is that even though I own the movie...when I saw it listed in the T.V. guide, I was all "Woo Hoo! Goblet of Fire on tonight...gotta watch.." Then reality set in and I can watching any freaking time I want, pause it, rewind it, freeze it...relish it! Rob Rocks CEDRIC!
I just had a feeling that CH wouldn't be on board for "New Moon". Too many mixed reviews. She rocks the teenage angst thing...but Summit now has the moola to get a bigger name director. Hey...it kinda worked for the "Harry Potter" franchise.
Mike Newell did a fantastic job with GOF! Not that I'm prejudiced cuz Rob's in it and everything...
I love watching the "meet the champions" part on youtube. "What are you talking about?" love it!
I'm watching meet the champions right now on you tube. He's eating breakfast.
Jules, you're a girl after my own heart (again).Tonight's viewing just brought perpetual Rob-viewing at my own leisure to my attention.
Jewels - I feel so much better! Another fabulous robsessor who owns the GoF 2 disc set! I love it here!
I love when he reads the graveyard script.... "Cedric get back to the cup!" "What are you talking about?"
Plus the wire scenes when he groans and grunts...Okay...serious turn on..... I'm so wrong in so many ways....
Yep, he runs like a mountain goat...
Rob says "Golf Buggys" Ha ha
Jules--
With the wire work , he was just in training for Twi.
Trixie--I will love you all and every day of my life if you can tell me where did you buy THA :))
My best girlfriend is in UK visiting her boyfriend, she's going to buy me the TBMH DVD and maybe she can also buy me THA.. oh, what a lovely Xmas gift!
Ellie/Dana--I don't see anything about Rob "going to the right or the left".. LMFAO!
Dana--You watching both? TV and youtube)??
Confessions of a cougar...That's when Dan Radcliffe starting getting just a little bit this side of yummy.... Such an inappropriate crush...
I watched GOF the first time because of Dan. Then just like my first time seeing "STAR WARS" (I thought Mark Hamill was the bomb, until Harrison Ford slid into that booth in the Cantina and unleased both his voice and smile...)
All of a sudden...ROB! Jesus, Mary and Joseph on a rubber raft... The heavens opened up and I was undeniably hooked, lost, and forever a Rob fan.....
Jewels - LOL. He says something like, "the sound I was making wasn't very spectacular..." little does he know :)
Mich - I found it and posted it above :)
Mich--It was very brief, and the wind was kind of blowing.maybe it was the wind on the trunks, but I don't think so...or I'm just wanting it to be so! LOL
Trixie...don't you love the way he said "spectacular"? And the way he moves his hands to show the coil action..... I'm so hooked on that damn interview!....
Ellie- oh yes. I multi-task!
Oh crossed comments Trixie.. well, like I said, I WILL LOVE YOU ALL AND EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Sorry for the caps.. :S
brb back on Poor Cedric!!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite word is coming up...
"Harry, take my "Body" back!"
Everytime he says "body", I so want to jump him...even if it's not his birthday....
Hello Macaroni!
Ellie if it is any consolation...
"Hey Cedward...Who knew the Avarda Kadavra curse would turn you into the world's hottest vampire? Good work Voldy!"
Ladies he said he almost burst into tears flying over London on the way to Rome.
My heart, it just reaches out for him all the time.
All the time.
Jewels - Yes, totally love how he says spectacular and how he demonstrates the coil action! I seriously didn't think anyone else would think that.
I'm with you on Star Wars, btw. Started out as a full Luke gal until I grew up a little bit. Once Return of the Jedi came out, I was all about Han.
At the end of the meet the champions he has a black beanie on. Do you guys think it's the same one he wears now. If it is that thing has got to be so soiled.
Han Solo was my man for the longest time! HF just killed me in that role, until Indy of course!
Mich - you are very welcome :)
Glad I could help out a fellow robsessor!
Jules--Yes, I feel much better for that! Thank you sweets!
dana - knowing how he likes to hang on to clothes, it is probably the same beanie!
Hi Jovie!
Jovie! I just realized you logged on! How the hell are ya you crazy, wild, surfing, pole dancing mama you?
Oh Jov, that makes me really sad. I'm glad he gets to spend some time at home for the next few weeks.
shit- did you guys read this yet about CH? I'm not on my laptop... so I can't send it viam email, because I don't have my address book.
OHHH NOOOO!
http://www.deadlinehollywooddaily.com/hardwicke-fired-from-twilight-franchise/
I just watch him talk 24/7, how the hell did women who crossed his path, not get enchanted?
I just simply don't get it.
I can see he's not perfect but I really, really don't get it.
Rob Pattinson comes up and tries to chat me up and his is going all out and I'm going to ignore him?
I just really can't even imagine it.
Where they blind?
I'm seriously trying to figure this out.
Did he have bad breath?
I'm shaking my head, did they miss the jawline?
Was it dark in there?
Did he act like a dork?
I am stupdified.
Jules I read back on all the comments I've missed since Fri. evening and I see you saw the Jackman, Australia, and they miled it for all it's worth.His "body" gawd.
Right?
oops... I guess I should've read the comments before I posted.. sorry.
Dana--I'm betting on it being the same beanie...Maybe years ago it was white.
I'm doing great beautiful curvy sexy woman.
Surfer dude and I ate dinner together and I sent him home so now I can chat.
Hi Tess - I know - no CH for NM. I feel kind of sad about it.
Here comes Cedric's ghost!
"Bring my 'body' back..."
"maybe years ago it was white" LMAO Ellie! If that were the case it would probably be a nasty shade of brown.
Jackman "jacked" me up girl! Sweetness... shit...damn...his thighs... crap....
Dontcha love the way he says "body"? Or is it just me...
wishing....dreaming...of him saying "take my body...."
Me too Sabrizzle.
If I was sitting next to him on the plane I would notice him getting emotional, If I was his woman I would FEEL his emotions always and I get him.
I GET YOU ROBERT PATTINSON!!!!
I would be there for you and understand.
I've been there flying over the MOnterey Peninsula heading to college and being so damn homesick I could spit. Listening to everyone having a BBQ while I am in a new city alone.
Then a freaking guy gets a crush on me and of course I don't feel the same and have to hurt someone now. I went on one freakin date with him. Big mistake. But I was so lonely.
Rob I would be there for you, sugar plum.
Ok I'm really glad GOF is supposed to show up in my mailbox tomorrow because you guys are really making me want to see it right now.
So...Jov...how many times have you seen surfer dude? Enquiring minds want to know....
And that's it on Cedric. I can turn off the TV now (who cares about the rest of the movie...) LOL
Oops...ignore the last question Jovie...you just answered it...
Now that I've had the pleasure of watching Rob, I am going to put in "Wanted" and watch the gorgeousness that is James Mcavoy and Angelina Jolie.
I totally get the being homesick thing. California is nice but I miss Washington like crazy because it is home. I'm really glad I get to go back for 3 weeks on Friday. It must be much worse for him because he is so far away from home and he has been away for a longer period of time.
I just love it that he has no qualms about admitting he gets emotional about things.
Yes, Jules the way his says "Body"
the way he says a lot of things.
Yes to Hugh Jackman's body when he was starting to get on top of NK on the bed and the silhouette of his body, GAWD!
P.S. I am saddened to hear about CH, i love that woman.
I bet Rob is also. But it's an opportunity for him to work with another director and the more directors they work with the more they learn.
And Rob is a fast learner. He has big plans on his production company, this will only be good for his career to work with another director.
Ellie...rejoice...Rob is now free to do "Haunted Airman", "Bad Mother's Handbook", "How to be", "Twilight" and "Little Ashes".....
I Think.
Jules-- I LOVE the way he says "body" and yes, I'd love to take it...again, and again,and again...infinity.
Okay, the fun is just starting in here and I have to get to bed (have to get up at 5:00am - ugh).
Goodnite everyone!
Goodnight Trixie!
Jovie...thanks! I couldn't agree with you more. Each book has such a different tone. As much as I admire CH....different visions could be a good thing. It is such a process to create true drama. Every director in a play has taught me so many things. I fully agree that the more exposure Rob has to different visions...the more he will be challenged as an actor!
Trixie...I gotta get up at 5 also. Suck it up and have some fun...you'll be smiling in the morning thinking of all us crazies....
Trixie--Sweet Rob dreams to you!
sleep well and "Be safe". :)
How many times I've seen surfer dude.
Or have had sex?
Zero on the sex.
I've seen him many time surfing, he's an insane surfer.
When he gave me the necklace on the 2nd I told him I'm just in it for making out.
I know he's not the one. He doesn't recreational read, unlike Rob does.
I understand Rob is an actor and it would behoove him to read, but I know I just need a reader or longterm, we're just not going to last.
I need a conversationalist.
Hear ya Sabrizzle.
Macaroni, I'll be your cheese ANYTIME!
See, once again, I feel ya Jovie! Reading is something I find to be very schmexy! I had an old boyfriend that would read his book, I'd read mine while we were naked in bed together. VERY HOT!
I love a man who reads. I love a man who writes...I love a man who plays guitar.... I've had a boyfriend (Or two...whose counting...not me ...Hell NO!) that was able to meet all above criteria!
I think after the shock of losing CH, it might be for the better.
Nite Trixie.
CH was the one who made Rob realize that Edward wasn't all dark. He has his broody moments....sigh...just like my fav other lit hero...Mr. Darcy...
But Rob will now have to entrust another vision, challenge another director... and rely on KStew to either back him up or talk him down....
Yes, and Jules you get on one side of Rob and I the other on my bed and listen to him read to us.
I'll put my down comforter over us to keep us warm and we settle in.
I'll pour us some rum, to soothe his throat or anything he needs to get comfortable.
I'll prop pillows behind him and put my down comforter like I said and make him feel welcomed and wanted.
The fact that Rob is so open about his emotions while maintaining his masculinity is absolutely drool-worthy. He is such an amazing person.
Jovie...name the date and I AM SO THERE! LMAO!
What I keep thinking about is the big cast and sometimes maybe CH was a little too easy on them.
SM I think will be disappointed also, because they seemed to get close.
Also, KStew might not want to be too difficult...
Look, if KStew can take direction from Sean Penn...how difficult can she be?
Honestly...I am trying to plumb the recesses of my mind to think of a director who would take "New Moon" on...
Ladies...any thoughts....
lol, Jules,
I'd give my left breast for that date.
Nite Trixie, wish you didn't have to go.
Sabrizzle, yes that he admits to tears at a VM concert and flying over London, there just really isn't anyone that is an actor like him.
It is really what sets him apart.
He's so unique and interesting.
He's funny and he's enchanting.
Just listening to him talk is enchanting. Look at the behind the scences onGOF, that all of you were talking about, it's not just his accent, it's so much more, his tone, his infliction, they way he'll pause to smile.
He is in touch with his feminine side but so, so masculine.
He has tons of male hormones flowing through his manly body.
I just watched for Rob's name in the credits...how lame is that?
Sorry Jules, I don't pay too much attention to directors so I can't think of any to take on NM.
I'm laughing because you're all talking about heavy stuff and I'm writing about Rob's name in the GOF credits...
Jules I feel ya too.
I so want to take care of Rob, he brings out my feminine, domesticating goddess side of me.
I want to cook him dinner, bathe him, wash his hair, massage him,
tuck him in. The list goes on and on.
"I feel very protective of you."
I know Ellie, isn't it hilarious?
It's one of the great things of reading the blog later, it's comedy at it's finest.lmao
He just oozes masculinity and is so comfortable with it that he is in touch with his feminine side. I absolutely love how he is completely himself, it's refreshing.
Dani, if you are still here.. could you send me the script too please.
Hugs babe :)
See...this is why we get along Jovie...you are succinct...honest...truthful and just down right ON IT GUUURRRLLLL!
Rob appeals on so many levels. We all adore him for so many different reasons. I know why I do...so do all the rest of us here on this blog.
We ALL agree that he is something else. Maybe the reasons differ, but he pulls us all here to chat, discuss, disect and dream that maybe, just maybe there is someone like him out there for us..
Jules I wrote on an earlier thread sorry that I didn't read your comment on Friday nite, I had logged off.
I love Juno and thanks for the compliment that you think I'm sassssy.
You said I have good sarcasm flowing or something like that,
thank you.
I am a sweetie but I'm not a doormat.
I'll be your cheese anytime.
Remember that movie
"I Just Want Someone to Eat Cheese With."?
Okay, my spelling was deplorable on that last post...eeekk! My veddy british mum would crucify me for that....
Jov, I feel the same way. I want to do his laundry for him, clean his apartment, teach him how to put in contacts, and take care of him in every other possible way.
Well girls, I'm gonna go watch Wanted. I'll check in before I go to sleep.
I couldn't of wrote it better Jules.
Night, Dana, in case I'm gone before you come back...
Talk to you later Dana, have fun watching your movie!
I mean seriously, where the women who he tried to chat up, clueless, not able to even feel the pheromones?
What happened in their moments with him that they didn't want to crawl up his body and sit on his shoulders.
I just want to run across a parking lot into his arms, seeing him the other day.
Or see him walking on Carmel beach and run and jump on his back and he gives me a piggy back down the beach while we talk and laugh.
Nope...don't know the movie...but enlighten me! I'm six months older than dirt...remember?
Sarcasm...yeah...love it!!!
My 8 year old has now picked up on it and he cracks me up!!! He is learning from one sarcastic beyotch! I just grew up watching too much "Monty Python".....
Okay, maybe I might knock him over I am tall, but I still want to run and jump into his arms still.
And when Kstew pulled his hair, gawd, I have always visioned that.
But more when I'm massaging him or in bed with him.
Dana...give James McAvoy a wet, sensual tongue kiss for me....
Stella-D babe for sure I will send it along to you. Sorry I'm watching GOF and avoiding the boards a bit right now things are insane online with the CH firing thing. But I will be back in a bit.
Hope everyone is enjoying their evening. My hub is ripping on me for my Robsession.
I want to attack hug him like he does to Stan behind the scenes of GOF, but not in a creepy obsessed fan way. I don't understand how some women aren't into him.
Jules when it comes to me you never have to apologize for spelling, if people read me back later, they would go WTF, she's a writer?
I can spell I just type fast and don't care.
I figure you guys know like the previous post, I typed an extra letter, where instead of were.
Life goes on.
Oh well, that's it on Cedric on my DVD..
It seems like I'm the only Potter fan here, right?
I became a Potter fan last year and read the 7 books in 28 days. When I read the 4th book remembered that I saw that movie just for fun with my boyfriend, who got jealous for my "stupid crush with the cute guy". Then googled the "cute guy" but there wasn't much info about him (now I know why..)
Then this year (July or August, I think) I saw a lot of flair in FB saying Edward Cullen this, Edward Cullen that, googled said name and realized there were a whole saga and an upcoming movie with.. guess who? The "cute guy"! Such a coincidence! And the rest is history.. :PP
Oh Sabrizzle, gawd yes,
when he ran and flew into Stan's arms, I think I fell in love with him and then the long hug with the girl at the signing convention.
That inspired a character for me.
I love him.
What were wrong with these women?
I want to ask them, he tried to chat you up, did he blow you off, or did you blow him off?
Haven't seen Wanted, I'll have to put it in my que
My friend Joel used to give me great hugs like that but it would be soooo much better with Rob. Gah! I just want to have a long conversation with him while he has his arms wrapped around me.
Yeah...I'm freaking clueless as to how women ignored him? WTF? If a man with that smile, jawline, sense of humor, self-deprecation, marriage proposing, finger raking, Ray Ban sporting, beanie wearing, scruffy faced, infectious laughter, guitar playing, soul singing, talented S.O.B. ever approached me...I'd need a defibrilator!
If he was my husband, I'd take very good care of him.
Mich-- I'm a big Potter fan. I love those books. I became a fan before the fifth book came out, and I bought the last three on the weekend they came out. I absolutely shut down the internet and tv before I read the sixth one, I didn't want people to ruin it for me like they did the 5th. And well, I read the 7th one so fast, I was on my second round when people were just starting to read the first one. LOL.
Hi Mich, sorry I get a little carried away.
As you said GOF, go ahead.
Dani...I'm so freaking laughing that you gave me shit earlier about a week ago when I texted you that I was watching GOF! BEEEYOTCH!
Laughing all the way....HA HA HA!
If he were, screw it.
If he was my husband, there is no way he would ever want to divorce me. I'd always be trying to make him happy because he would make me so incredibly happy.
Good Jules, give it to her.
Jovie..she was giving me shit about crushing on Dan as well...
I would be willing to get to know him and see really how difficult he can be in a relationship.
All fantasizing aside, to know him really well.
It's fascinating to him that any woman would "want this?"
He's a slob, He's probably thinking do you see the way I live.
I bet he is really selfish.
Maybe even in bed. I'm just guessing.
Don't beat me up for this.
Just a thought.
Mich--I love the HP books, too. I started with bk 4 , to read before the movie, went to 5, 6, 1,2, 3 and then 7 when it came out.
(4 through 6 in a week...it was summer,and I was on vacaton for two months...).
Dani--could you send me the script too please? could you forgive for ruining your dream about Del Toro? Pretty pretty please? :))
I would definitely date him for awhile before we got married, I don't want to rush into anything. I know he probably has a bunch of annoying habits, but so do I.
I really don't think he has really even slept with that many people. I think he's basically kind of a newbie, really just kinda getting to understand women and probably just doesn't even know that much about them.
I think he respects women and has a good relationship with his mother but I think he wants to beat to his own drum and I like thou that he is def not asexual after the trumpet comment, btw, was hilarius.
He's def autoerotic.
ELLLLLIEEE! I'm so glad to see ya!
I'm kinda psyched about the CH thing. I think fresh blood, so to speak, is a good thing. I know very little to nothing on directing or how movies are made but I thought Twilight looked like it was filmed with an expensive camcorder, ya know? I wanted it to have a more "polished" look, for lack of a better term. I don't know if that has anything to do with the director or not but I just wish the movie had a different "look" to it. Am I the only one??? Don't get me wrong, I LOOOOOOVED it, saw it twice and am DYING to see it again :) OK, I'll stop rambling.
Hey, lady, I've been here all along...just being voyeuristic with the comments...(and trying to type these f-ing narratives.
Jules--Happy to see you, too, honey.
Karla, you pretty much voiced how I feel. CH captured the "first love" thing and all, but when you get right down to it..it was Rob and KStew who brought it to life. The only thing I am forever grateful for is bringing Rob in to do the audition and realizing the chemistry was so there!
It's now time to take up the intensity... They need a director who will milk the feeling of separation, longing, lonliness, madness on the part of Edward and Bella....
Yeah, I like that he's not a total man whore. That's such an unattractive quality. I think he needs to feel a deep connection with someone before he gets to involved.
Once again...my fingers do not type what comes out of my brain when it comes to spelling....
Jules you pipe it! I dont even remember him in this and gosh he looks like a todler compared to now. Red cheeked youngin Rob.
I honestly dont get the hype with the Potter books or films really, I dont own any. I've seen most of them...I think? Anywho getting my Rob fix. Ben is seriously ripping on me from the other room. It is so annoying.
Dani, the magic comes from the books. The movies leave so many details out. I dunno, I love to read so I can escape real life, and they have such an amazing universe.
Ladies...I beg to differ. My friend Mark who shares the same b-day as Rob is a rampant heterosexual!
He has one of the filthiest minds tempered by artistic genius! I have never met a man who loved or appreciated women more! His mother ...God...I loved her...(she passed from cancer not too long ago) gave him such an appreciation for all women! No matter how young or old.
Now, why do I think that applies to Rob?....You know the answer to that! Rob genuinely loves women. Period. He can pass himself off as incapable...but we all know that if given the chance that Rob would make a pass at any one of us...WOULD YOU SAY NO?
Nope! Didn't think so.....
Stella--I'm with you, the Potter movies leave so many details out. Specially the 5th movie.. eeeewwww, horrible!
BTW, my dog and I are sharing a Cheeto bag.. isn't that precious?
NOT!
Poor dog.. :(
Mich-- I'm looking at your blog, and I'm also reading Ensayo sobre la Ceguera. I'm a bit stuck on it, because all the commas freak me out. I have to re-read every single paragraph to understand what is happening, lol.
Sorry guys, way OT.
I love the HP books! They take you off to such a fascinating world. I thought the movies were awesome, but as always, the books are waaaaaaaaaay better. I read them (the ones that were out then) during the summer of 2001 right before 9/11, when we lived in San Antonio for 4 months while my hubbie was doing flight training. I would sit by the pool, read and tan (bad, bad) all day. It was the life (no kids or job), *sigh*. Then when 9/11 happened and thrust everyone, and especially my husband, into a much more dangerous world, it was nice to have those books as a form of escapism. They were a great diversion and I still love them. Actually, I'm really looking forward to the day when I can start reading them aloud to my kids and enjoy them all over again!
Mich--Cheetos! Reminds me of The Host...
I agree, the HP books are better than the movies...but they do tend to go overboard sometimes with the details.
Woah Karla, I see that you are living in Oak Harbor. My parents have 7 and 1/2 acres on Whidbey Island!
Oh God, Jewels, I'd kill for him to make a pass at me. I already told my husband that if I ever run into Rob and he shows even the smallest atom of interest, I'm doing him, right then and there. Doug said he's ok with that, so I've got that going for me ;)
WOW!! Where on Whidbey? Small world, huh??
Small world indeed! Our property is in Greenbank and my aunt and uncle have a cabin near Beverly Beach.
Okay stop...my aunt and uncle live on WhidbeY! This is tooooo weird!
Okay stop...my aunt and uncle live on WhidbeY! This is tooooo weird!
