New Moon will be better than "Twilight"


That's according to Kristen Stewart. Here's what she has to say:

While making the first movie, Summit kept urging Stewart and Pattinson to ease up on the teenage angst. Now Stewart's diving headlong into heartache. She says she reached her breaking point one long, cold night in the forest while filming the pivotal scene where Edward abandons her. ''Before the scene, I was sitting in my car, like f---ing crying — crying so hard you can't breathe,'' she says. ''Because I was really overwhelmed and intimidated by the scene. Everyone says, 'She better be able to pull off the emotion in this movie!' And it's such an important moment in the book, when he leaves.'' The scene exhausted her. ''I'm thinking, 'We have to be done now,''' she remembers. '''Just tell me we're done.'''

Despite the heavy emotional weather in New Moon, director Weitz remained calm and contemplative, as different from the driven, frenetic Hardwicke as Jacob is from Edward. On particularly tough days, Weitz wore a shirt bearing the WWII British propaganda slogan ''Keep Calm and Carry On.'' Sometimes he'd sit in the 
 director's chair and read sci-fi novels while the crew readied the next shot. ''[Making Twilight] was much more of a fight,'' says Stewart. ''Everyone was a little more scared. We needed to make something commercial but stay true to the book. We didn't have as much money. It was all very impulsive, and that's what I love about that f---ing movie.''

She pauses. ''But I think New Moon is gonna be even better.''

Thar's just the part where she mentions Rob. If you want to read the full article head over to EW.com

GAH! I sooo cannot wait to see the smooches in this movie, cause they are HOT just in pics. I don't know if my heart can take them in full motion. I may slide right out of my seat.

If Rob & Kristen are together, I wonder when it started, & how it affected their kissing scenes. If they weren't together while Twilight was filming, & they were for New Moon, I bet the kissing scenes in New Moon will really be smoking.

I'd freak out too, about getting that scene right. It's the most heartbreaking part of the book, and most of the book is about heartbreak!

I like that she basically said New Moon is going to be so much better because things were done properly this time without trashing CH in the process and explaining that they had a lot less to work with, creatively and monetarily, the first time around.

it sounds like she really put her heart and mind in the movie even more than other works. glad she was doing whatever it took for that breakup scene. cuz they are right....it is a pivotal scene in the movie/book. glad to know we have amazing actors doing all they can to make us proud =]

marna....there is only 2 kissing scenes in New Moon...birthday one, and the italy one(which was not in the book, they didn't kiss until they got back to Forks)...but you know they will be HOT! since they were most likely together during most of New Moon...at least definitely Italy.

For some reason every thread in the last time turns into a Robsten - thread...

I wish for a naked pic of Rob on the internet. Then we would have a more interesting "thing" to talk about :P

I think new moon will be soo much better than twilight. I mean dont get me wrong I LOVED twilight, but the directing was crap and edward wasnt as much of a vamp as i thought hed be. :/ i think edward looks more like a vampire in new moon but I will need tons of tissues to get me through the scene were he leaves Bella. :O i also cant wait for the reunion scene where rob strips ;) these kissing scenes are going to be HOT!

You get the vibe that Chris Weitz is doing all of them really good :)
Sooo excited to finally watch it... which will be in 2010. That's such a long time!!! I probably end up on Youtube watching ann illegal, crappy recording with the sound off because of all the girls screaming...

Haystackhair said...

weren't there 3 kisses? before and after birthday (you're greedy tonight) and after Italy. Maybe if we are lucky they will throw a few more in for us just to make up for twilight. LOL

rpattz-turn-me-on said...

first i have to apologise for the comments i made in the other blog,i woke up cranky so i just typed what ever was in my mind (YEA IAM STUPID) and i know i sometimes come across a bit vulgar i wil tone it down a bit,so i did not mean to offend its just my personality to keep it real .so in conclusion IAM SORRY yes iam woman enough to know it

Marna said...

Well, there is lots of kissing in Eclipse (leg hitching!!!), so if they really are together right now, they can put it all into Eclipse :-)

rpattz-turn-me-on said...

oh and iam going to die with that italy scene

phosphorus said...

@ Siddo: Well, here's something else, then. Kristen talks about chemistry with Taylor. ;-)

rpattz-turn-me-on said...

i guess iam the only new yorker on here? being a new yorker we tend to be a little rough around the edges lol i guess most most of you are european or austrailian

Sharperoni said...

"I love that kid"

Gosh, Kristen sounds like Taylor's mom!

Anonymous said...

I'm really glad to hear Kristen say this about New Moon. I am so excited to see this and I will guarantee two things:

It WILL be better than Twilight ( and I loved Twilight)
and
I WILL be crying for the majority of the movie. Not just when he leaves her either. When she sees/hears him, when she tries to find comfort in Jacob and then he gets hurt, when she jumps off the cliff, and the ultimate cry fest will be had when she saves him in Volterra and they kiss. Guarantee it. I will be a mess but I can't wait.

Sidd-o said...

@ phosphorus :)
LOVED IT!
She's cool, he's cool and that person just died.

Karina said...

Kristen is calling him "kid" as code for "I know summit is trying to act like we are falling in love, but he's like my brother." lol It's clever of her.

Karina said...

ps: Kristen constantly called Robert her "buddy" too with last year's twilight promotioin. That was code for "I'm not sleeping with him, I have a boyfriend." :)

rpattzgirl survived Rob! said...

We all can agree this is going to be better than Twilight-just the trailers alone are better!!!!

Yeah, if they book made me cry this movie will destroy me...I believe I read where Rob said the break up scene is like 5 pages of dialouge, so it's gonna kill for sure...

I think Chris did way better than CH in bringing out the emotions in the actors.

phosphorus said...

@ danyasky: At this time of day there are usually less Americans around.

Apology accepted, perhaps you can control it a bit more in the future so it doesn't sound like Rob was just a piece of man meat. I'm sure you've noticed that Gözde, Dani and Kate never cross a certain line in their postings, tags and comments, no matter how hot the pics of Rob are. Since we all are Gözde's and Dani's guests here we should try to behave ourselves (and not force our own sexual fantasies down other people's mind). OK?

Karina said...

I think Chris Weitz has a better command of directing. I think CH does well with smaller scoped stories like 13, but this is epic style storytelling and it sounds like CW has a better handle on every level for this scope.

Sharperoni said...

I was half joking about Kristen's protective tone re Taylor. :)

Actually, at TCA, Kristen was so leaning on Taylor like a little girl when Taylor diverted a personal question from that interviewer. It was really sweet.

I notice that Kristen is usually much more reserved about Rob.

Karina said...

shar-I could tell you were joking. :) I was just making comparisons how Kristen has used code words with her costars in the past. her calling him kid is quite humrous.

rpattzgirl survived Rob! said...

@danyasky,
apology accepted as well.

I am from US-
Look, I have a truckers mouth, cuss up a storm and have very graphic thoughts around Rob, it's putting labels & name calling that gets my back up.

I don't care for Nikki but I would not call her a slut-don't know her, so not willing to make that judgement.

rpattzgirl survived Rob! said...

And as for this kisses in this movie....in the trailer & photos, I think we've seen 3-

There's this one here, maybe at or before after school, the one after the BD party, and the Italy one-there was more in the book...

Lots of Kisses in Eclipse & hell yes for the leg hitch!!!!

Rayodeluna said...

I think New Moon will be better too! You can see it in the photos the quality is better and the chemistry is better too. I think Chris did an amazing job and they should keep him for Breaking Dawn!!! I can't wait to see this!

ROB PATTINSON for Dummies said...

SO DOES THAT ANSWER THE QUESTION OF WHY KRISTEN WAS SO COLD IN TWILIGHT? i think it does...


SUMMIT said "no teenage angst"
and they all did what good little kids do, they listened to the adults.....

I love that Kristen is putting her heart and soul into this movie as she does with all of her work.
She also seems devoted and loyal to people she cares about, no matter the level.
She rallied for Rob and she rallied for Taylor. Then there's a softr side to her that peeks out from time to time.
I can honestly say I'm looking forward to seeing all of this movie even though I'll still be missing Robward...but that's the whole point of New Moon.

Unknown said...

That's interesting because when I am in love, just the thought of him leaving me could bring me to tears, and I'm not an actress, LOL!

GHOSTGIRL said...

finally KS sounds like bella's character is a challenge and not a silly girl like sometimes she makes us believe...I 'm excited to see her in NM an obviusly the full break up scene.
I think there'r 3 kissing scenes in NM as u said but I don't remember any1 with Edward takin his clothes off??now that'd be the best part of the movie but not sure if is in the book
