• Eclipse Trailer Quotes Versus the Book’s

  March 11th, 2010 by Rachel

  This morning, when the trailer for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse was revealed, a list of quotes from the video was mentioned, and now it’s time to put those quotes up against those of Stephenie Meyer’s Eclipse.

  By reviewing the words used by the cast in the film as compared with those passages present in the text, one can see that the words are quite resemblant of the original quotes.

  Trailer: “Isabella Swan, I promise to love you every moment of forever,” Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen.

  Book: “Isabella Swan? I promise to love you forever — every single day of forever. Will you marry me?” Edward Cullen, page 460.

  Trailer: “She’s still human,” and “the Volturi don’t give second chances,” Dakota Fanning as Jane.

  Book: “We don’t make exceptions,” she said. “And we don’t give second chances. It’s bad for our reputation. Which reminds me [. . .] Caius will be so interested to hear that you’re still human, Bella,” Jane, page 578.

  Trailer: “Why are you so against me becoming like you?” Kristen Stewart as Bella Swan.

  Book: “You don’t want me to be a vampire.” “No, I don’t,” he said softly, and then he waited for more. “That’s not a question,” he prompted after a moment. “Well . . . I was worrying about . . . why you feel that way,” Bella and Edward, pages 272-73.

  Trailer: “I know the consequences of the decision you’re making. After a few decades, everyone you know will be dead,” Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen.

  Book: “You could do so much better, Bella. I know that you believe I have a soul, but I’m not entirely convinced on that point, and to risk yours [. . .] For me to allow this – to let you become what I am just so that I’ll never have to lose you – is the most selfish act I can imagine,” Edward Cullen, page 273.

  Trailer: “You wouldn’t have to change for me, Bella. I’m in love with you, and I want you to pick me instead of him,” Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black.

  Book: “I’m in love with you, Bella. Bella, I love you. And I want you to pick me instead of him. I know you don’t feel that way, but I need the truth out there so that you know your options. I wouldn’t want a miscommunication to stand in our way,” Jacob Black, page 327. “Just think about how it could be, Bella,” he urged in a soft, eager voice. “You wouldn’t have to change anything for me. You know Charlie would be happy if you picked me. I could protect you just as well as your vampire can – maybe better. And I could make you happy, Bella,” Jacob Black, page 333.

  Trailer: “You have to consider the idea that I might be better for her than you are,” Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black.

• Anna Kendrick talks about upcoming ‘Eclipse’ trailer

  March 9th, 2010 by Amy

  “Twilight” star Robert Pattinson has seen the “Eclipse” trailer set to premiere during his flick “Remember Me,” out in theaters Friday. And Kellan Lutz promised that the flick itself will be very “badass.” But it seems like Oscar nominee Anna Kendrick has yet to be treated to the trailer for the flick.

  At the very least, she knows that it will look “beautiful,” based on the work cinematographer Javier Aguirresarobe did on “New Moon.” “I haven’t actually [seen the trailer yet],” Kendrick told MTV News on the Oscars red carpet on Sunday. “I trust that it will look very beautiful. It’s the same cinematographer as last time, so at least we know it will look beautiful.”

  Last month, when MTV News caught up with Kristen Stewart at the red-carpet premiere for “The Yellow Handkerchief,” she had a few scenes she wanted to see make the final cut for the “Twilight Saga: Eclipse” trailer. “Oh my gosh! There’s a really cool thing that happens on a cliff with Jacob that should definitely be in there,” she said. “Battle stuff. I would say the [newborn vampires]. The newborns are going to look awesome.”

  Late last year, at the New York premiere of “New Moon,” Stewart said she was really excited for fans to get a chance to see the love triangle between Jacob, Bella and Edward intensify in this next film. “I’m looking forward to seeing the love triangle actually becoming a problem,” she said. “We sort of innocently touch on it in ‘New Moon,’ but it actually becomes something that is very, very real.”

  March 5th, 2010 by Amy

  Chris Weitz says ‘Twilight: Eclipse’ is steamy. Chris Weitz, director of the blockbuster smash “Twilight Saga: New Moon”, recently spoke with People Magazine about his thoughts on the third installment in Summit Entertainment’s popular vampire series titled “Twilight Saga: Eclipse”. He claims he’s already read the script!

  “I’m looking forward to the sleeping bag scene, I gotta say,” Weitz tells People. “That’s going to be very steamy.”

  “I have a special interest in seeing Peter and Elizabeth tear people’s heads off,” he says with a laugh. “Knowing them, and how kind of kooky and delightful they are, I’m going to find seeing them being ultra-violent very interesting indeed.”
  Sound interesting? What do you guys think? Are you looking forward to this particular scene?

• Summit replaces editor for ‘Eclipse’

  March 4th, 2010 by Amy

  by Nicole Sperling

  Summit Entertainment, the studio behind the uber-successful Twilight series, confirmed this morning that it has replaced Eclipse editor Art Jones with Nancy Richardson, the editor of Catherine Hardwicke’s original Twilight film. The studio is not placing blame on Jones, who previously worked with Eclipse director David Slade on his horror film 30 Days of Night as well as Slade’s Ellen Page-starrer Hard Candy. They do believe, however, that Slade’s material – which they call “very good” – needed a stronger edit. The studio has more confidence in Richardson, who they say understands the emotion of the characters and is an ace at balancing action with the other elements of the film.

• Eclipse won’t Reach the Heights of New Moon

  February 1st, 2010 by Rachel

  After Twilight, the first entry in The Twilight Saga before the franchise was called “The Twilight Saga,” became a box office sensation in 2008, ultimately grossing $192.8 million, its sequel, New Moon, was dubbed one of the most-anticipated movies of 2009. It did not disappoint, drawing massive crowds out of the gate and finishing the year with nearly $290 million and counting. While the first two movies had pre-Thanksgiving launches, the third, Eclipse, has been aligned with the Independence Day holiday, in part, because the next Harry Potter reclaimed that series’ historical pre-Thanksgiving slot. Eclipse is scheduled for Wednesday, June 30, or only seven months after New Moon.

  Odds are that Eclipse won’t reach the heights of New Moon, given the history of closely-timed, serialized sequels. The Matrix Revolutions, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End and even Back to the Future Part III all grossed significantly less than their predecessors. When a second movie is hotly-anticipated after the first movie’s success, it’s highly unlikely that the next picture will even maintain the momentum (The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter being notable exceptions), and signs from New Moon’s run suggest that The Twilight Saga will follow the pattern. New Moon had one of the biggest openings of all time, was extremely front-loaded and probably wasn’t as well-liked as the first Twilight: Box Office Mojo readers gave it a “C+,” compared to the first movie’s “B.” Also, the vampire fad could show fatigue by the summer, given the flood of vampire-themed TV shows, movies and paraphernalia in the market.

  However, it would be silly to bet against Eclipse’s chances at being a big box office draw in its own right. The Twilight brand is so strong right now that even a massive drop-off would mean a near blockbuster run for Eclipse, there are few other offerings this summer that will be as attractive to younger females, and there’s always the possibility that it pulls a Harry Potter in terms of longevity. With no trailer available at publication time, it remains to be seen how Summit will up the ante in its marketing campaign.

• ‘Eclipse’ is One of Their Must-See Movies of 2010

  January 12th, 2010 by Rachel

  Twilight Saga: Eclipse landed at number 3 of the top 20 must see movies.

  3. The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (June)

  Get ready for more vampire love in 2010 as Stephenie Meyer’s next “Twilight” installment hits theatres. This other-worldly outing finds Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) caught in the middle of an all-out war between the vampires and werewolves. Like the Harry Potter franchise, diehard “Twilight” fans know this story by heart. For them, nothing beats the sight of Robert Pattinson, “Twilight”’s 108-year-old vampire hunk, looking longingly at Bella. That alone should turn “Eclipse” into a killer at the box office.
