Another ‘Breaking Dawn’ Director To Consider: M. Night Shyamalan

With the third installment of The Twilight Saga nipping at our heels, the final film: Breaking Dawn still hasn’t been given a director.  All kinds of names have been thrown in the air from Chris Weitz to James Cameron, but M. Night Shyamalan?

This isn’t an official possibility on the table for Summit — as far as we know — but a noteworthy filmmaker professed his love for Stephenie Meyer’s vampire series in a chat on the Kid’s Choice Awards red carpet over the weekend: M. Night Shyamalan.”I would’ve loved to be– I love the series, and Catherine [Hardwicke's] movie, it was one of my favorite movies of that year,” he said. “Really, I thought tonally, it was a perfect movie. I called her up after I saw ‘Twilight’ and was like ‘That was amazing.’ So I’m a big fan.”
Shyamalan just recently worked with “Twilight” star Jackson Rathbone on “The Last Airbender,” a live-action adaptation of the popular Japanese anime series “Avatar: The Last Airbender.”

Twilight' series and cast needs your vote for MTV Movie Awards, potential nominations revealed

'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' - Summit Ent.

Just now, nominations for this year's MTV Movie Awards opened up to user-based voting (the same procedure as last year, where you vote for the nominees and then vote for the winners), and so far, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, its cast, and their other films (particularly Remember Me and The Runaways) are listed in quite a few categories!
For starters, the Twilight Saga has certainly made a stay on the potential "Best Kiss" nominations list, with four Saga-related kisses in the mix. Potential nominees for the category are as follows:

• Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson in The Twilight Saga: New Moon
• Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin for Remember Me
• Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning in The Runaways
• Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift in Valentine's Day

The Twilight saga did not get a nod for "Best Fight" or "Best Villain" despite the wonderful Volturi cast and scenes. Although, fans who believe this is an error are free to suggest a cast member (cough Michael Sheen cough) or fight scene for those spots.
Anna Kendrick was nominated for "Best Female Breakout Star" for her work in Up In The Air. This'd be about the dozenth nomination Kendrick has received for that movie. Surprisingly enough, though, this time she's pitted against Emilie de Ravin for her work in Remember Me. Remember Me wasn't de Ravin's first film, nor was it the first project she's worked on that gained her some notoriety (Lost, anyone?), but it's certainly been one of the . . . yes, to cheese it up . . . more memorable roles thus far.
The "Best Female Performance" category is stacked with Twilight stars, too. It even leaves Kristen Stewart in competition with, well, herself for the nomination.

• Kristen Stewart in The Twilight Saga: New Moon
• Kristen Stewart in The Runaways
• Dakota Fanning in The Runaways

Same goes for "Best Male Performance" with Robert Pattinson versus Robert Pattinson in at least one instance . . . and against his on-screen nemesis (sort of) in another.

• Robert Pattinson in The Twilight Saga: New Moon
• Taylor Lautner in The Twilight Saga: New Moon
• Robert Pattinson in Remember Me

One of the newer categories for this year's Movie Awards is "Global Superstar," and you'd probably not be surprised to find out that Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner are among those nominated for that . . . er . . . nomination.
Finally, the "Best Movie" category also pertains to Twilight fans.

• The Twilight Saga: New Moon
• The Runaways

As a refresher, at last year's MTV Movie Awards, the first trailer for New Moon was shown, and the Twilight series won in the following categories: "Best Movie" (Twilight),  Kristen Stewart for "Best Female Performance," Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart for "Best Kiss" (in Twilight), Robert Pattinson for "Breakthrough Performance Male," and "Best Fight."
The MTV Movie Awards will take place on June 6th, and more about how the voting for nominations system works can be found here (or you can go straight to voting for these nomination selections here).

'Twilight' fan reaches out to advice column, is told to 'seek counseling'

'Twilight' by Stephenie Meyer - Hatchette Books

Among Twilight fans, there are shades of devotion. Some people are casual fans who'll pick up the books or go see the films, and others are rapacious, Saga-hungry fiends who'll spend five days on the sidewalk just to see the New Moon premiere or sit outside behind a cramped barricade all day just on the off-chance they'll see a glimpse of Robert Pattinson at work (Note: all types of Twilight fans are welcome here).
In one woman's case, she has found that the Twilight series' hold on her attention is getting to be a bit much, so she reached out to the L.A. Times/Chicago Tribune's "Ask Amy" column for advice.
"I have been obsessed with these stories and have really grown attached to the primary male character . . . I feel like I am missing a lot all of a sudden, and I keep thinking about this character and wanting a love like he has," she explained.
From the rest of the description offered, it was hard not to tell that she was referring to her affection for Edward Cullen in the Twilight series, so the columnist outted her as being a Twilight fanatic and advised that she seek professional help.
"If you confess to an obsession, wonder if you are having a breakdown and worry about your behavior, then you should seek counseling," said Amy. "You must be the hero of your own story."

This year's Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards had a few Twilight treats, especially for Taylor Lautner.
He, Jackson Rathbone, and Nikki Reed (co-stars in The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse) all made their way to the KCA's 2010 show, and Lautner brought home the orange blimp for "Favorite Movie Actor."
Jackson Rathbone, too, took the stage - only he got a little slimed in the process. Rathbone presented - with Jerry Trainer and his The Last Airbender co-star Nicola Peltz - a skit called The Last Slimebender.
Lautner also sorta won when his team ("Team Jacob") nabbed the "Cutest Couple" award over Edward and Bella.
Guess kids really do love their puppies!

Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Ashley Greene in new 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' feature

'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' - Summit Ent.

One of the first video features (of many, to be sure) for The Twilight Saga: Eclipse has been revealed by Access Hollywood, and it includes a few new statements from actors Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Ashley Greene about the film.
The three talked about a range of issues surrounding this leg of the Saga.
For instance, in the interview, Kristen Stewart admits that the situation that her character Bella Swan is in during Eclipse is "really ideal" because she's stuck between the affections of two similarly (albeit opposite) powerful creatures that adore her.
She and Robert Pattinson also talked about how not ideal it is, though, to be inside the fishbowl when it comes to relationship matters . . .
Ashley Greene closed it up by referring, once again, to the "huge" battle sequence that fans can expect in Eclipse. (Anyone else starting to get tired of hearing about that?).

2010 MTV Movie Award nominations begin today!

Starting later today, you can start nominating The Twilight Saga: New Moon (and any other movies you want) for the  2010 MTV Movie Awards:

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Film fans can choose the nominees for the 2010 MTV Movie Awards.

The network says viewers can log on to movieawards.mtv.com beginning at noon Monday and submit their favorites in 13 categories. Nominee submissions will be accepted until April 9.
Any 2009 film or performance is eligible for consideration in categories including best villain, best fight and best kiss. MTV added three new categories to the competition this year, and the titles of two of them are so racy they can’t be printed here. The two unmentionables are action- and horror-related. The third is best global superstar, and for the first time in MTV Movie Awards history, voting in that category will be open worldwide.

Winners will also be chosen by fans online. The MTV Movie Awards will be presented June 6.

Last year, Twilight dominated the categories at the MTV Movie Awards, winning in almost every category in which it was nominated.

Vote now for the 2010 MTV Movie Awards!

Voting is now open for the nominees for the  2010 MTV Movie Awards.
The Twilight Saga: New Moon and series actors are up in the following categories:

Best Movie: The Twilight Saga: New Moon

Best Female Performance: Kristen Stewart (for New Moon & The Runaways); Dakota Fanning (The Runaways)

Best Male Performance: Taylor Lautner (for New Moon); Rob Pattinson (for  New Moon & Remember Me)

You can also write-in additional nominations … categories to consider for write-in nominations are Best Villain (Michael Sheen as Aro, Dakota Fanning as Jane), Best Fight (Edward vs. Felix; Laurent vs. The Wolves; Victoria vs. Everyone); Best A**-Kicking Star (Edward? Jacob?); Best Female Breakout Performance (How about Ashley Greene as Alice?) … just some ideas. The Lex also has some suggested write-in votes.

MTV Movie Award Nominations Are Out! Twilight in Most Categories.

Voting for the annual MTV movie awards has begun. This year in addition to the standard categories, MTV has added three new categories: Global Superstar, Best Ass-Kicking Star and Best Scared-as-Sh– Performance.
Here’s how the nominations panned out. We think we did pretty well on our predictions! BUT we think we can do better by using the write in feature that comes at the bottom of each category!
Best Movie: New Moon
Best Female Performance: Kristen Stewart (competing against herself in New Moon and The Runaways, and Dakota is nominated for The Runaways.)
Best Male Performance: Taylor Lautner (with competition from Rob in Remember Me,  well…this is going to be interesting.)
Breakthrough Female Performance: Woo Hoo! Go Anna Kendrick for Up In the Air!
Breakthrough Male Performance: Taylor Lautner is not there? Is it because they put him in last year against Robert Pattinson? Time to use that write in feature!
Best Villain: Neither Michael Sheen nor Dakota Fanning made it. Time to use that write in feature, again!
Best Kiss: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart (However competition from Dakota and Kristen in The Runaways, Rob and Emilie in Remember Me, and Taylor and Taylor in Valentine’s Day)
Best Fight: WOAH! Daniel Cudmore and Robert Pattinson didn’t make it. Time to use that write in feature one more time!
Best Ass Kicking Star: Daniel Cudmore could use a little love here, use that write in in this new category!
Best Global Superstar: Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and Robert Pattinson (Holy Way To Split The Vote, Batman!)
Best Song: In a shocker move, the category is eliminated!
So get over to MTV and get voting!

MTV Movie Awards Voting Starts at Noon Today!

Voting for the annual MTV movie awards starts today at noon. Last year Twilight pretty much walked away with it all. The only categories where Twilight didn’t come out on top were in the Best Song From a Movie category where Miley Cyrus beat out Paramore , and Breakthrough Male Performance where Robert Pattinson beat out fellow nominee Taylor Lautner.
Here are our predictions of who is going to get nominated let’s see if we are right at noon today.
Best Movie: New Moon

Best Male Performance: Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner
Breakthrough Female Performance: Ashley Greene
Breakthrough Male Performance: Taylor Lautner

James Woods Scouting Locations For Movie With Kristen Stewart

According to Buffalo station WGRZ, to actor/director James Woods is scouting locations in the Buffalo, NY area to film a movie called American Girl starring Kristen Stewart.
”
“I was searching for the heartland of America, and I couldn’t think of a better place than Buffalo,” said Woods in an interview with 2 On Your Side’s Stu Boyar. Woods plans to step away from the silver screen and take on the roles of director and producer. The film, entitled An American Girl, is set to star Kristen Stewart, the actress most commonly known for her leading role in the Twilight films. Stewart will play a woman who enlists in the Marines in hopes of finding herself, only to be wounded in the line of duty…”This movie honors all people who stand in harms way for others,” said Woods. “It is a message not told often enough in this industry, and I’m proud to be a part of it.”

Hit Fix: Will Eclipse Make Less Money Than New Moon?

So far the Twilight Saga movies are on the rise. New Moon beat Twilight’s box office total in under 14 days, but what will happen with Eclipse? Frequently, franchise movies aren’t on a constant build. For example the Harry Potter movies have had their ups and downs. Harry Potter and the Socerer’s Stone, the initial movie in the series, remains the best selling Potter movie followed by Half-Blood Prince and Order of the Phoenix. The Prisoner of Azkaban, third in the series, is the least successful at the box office.
Hit Fix examines the possibilities:
“One of the films expected to battle for the summer box office crown or at least place in the top five is the third “Twilight” feature, “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.”  The second installment, “New Moon,” broke the single day all-time opening record with $72 million, is currently the third biggest 3-day opening of all time with $142 million and ended up with $296 million domestic and $707 million worldwide.  And that was all in November when many of the franchise’s younger fans had school on Friday (although let’s assume many of them cut out early).  “Eclipse’s” June 30 release should find those young tween girls out of school and flocking to the theater. Adding more intrigue to the box office gross is that “Eclipse” will also be released in IMAX theaters which feature higher ticket prices.  So, a larger opening weekend is guaranteed right?  No doubt, but what happens after that?”

ET Talks Relationships on the Orange Carpet With Taylor Lautner

Jackson Rathbone Talks Dread to Movieweb

Jackson Rathbone covers his role in Dread and his recent stint as a music video director and palns for teh future.
“We talked a bit about the music video you directed. Is that maybe a stepping stone into feature directing for you then?
Jackson Rathbone: Oh, definitely. I’m actually adapting a couple of short stories right now, not for full-length but for short films, so hopefully I can start kind of slowly, get my feet wet, starting to inch my way to that big feature directing, producing and writing. I want to start off adapting and directing those short films and then, hopefully, write and original full-length film and direct it. That’s kind of my plans for next year or the year after. It’s definitely going to happen within the next few years.
Are these short stories anything we might be familiar with?
Jackson Rathbone: Well, right now, I’m kind of in the middle of the option agreements and all that. I can’t really talk about it too much, I don’t want to jinx it. I want to make sure it goes through and get the option, because I’ve already kind of written it (Laughs). Now I’m just waiting to make sure that’s legal.
Finally, what would you like to say to any fans of the horror genre or maybe your Twilight fans about why they should pick up Dread on DVD?
Jackson Rathbone: Well, I think if you want to have a good time with a nice psychological thriller, get a little scared, I think it’s a good movie for your girlfriend too (Laughs). Make her hold you close, that’s always right with a horror film. It’s a great film. If people are interested in checking it out, I’d love it.”

A Runaways and Eclipse Soundtrack Connection?

According to San Diego News Network legendary music insider and talent finder Kim Fowley is apparently helping Maren Parusel, an up and coming San Diego musician, win a spot on the Eclipse soundtrack. There also may have been a bit of assistance from Kristen Stewart.

“Mario Escovedo, the local talent hound who happens to be the younger brother of Javier Escovedo of ’70s-vintage all-boy rock band The Zeros, reports that “legendary producer” Fowley was in Austin last week for South by Southwest “to promote the movie about how he discovered Joan Jett and The Runaways,” when he “met Maren Parusel unloading equipment in an alley.”

“Two days later she was recording with him in Los Angeles,” remaking her “Ordinary Day,” Escovedo e-mails.

“I’m hearing nothing but good things about the movie,” he adds. “And because of the actress playing Joan Jett, Kim Fowley struck a deal to write some songs for Twilight three.”

So, maybe it’s a shot in the dark and maybe they have a shot, only time will tell because very indie band in town is sending in their pitch.For that matter so are the mainstream ones, Muse seems to have worked their way back on the soundtrack after initial reports that they were off.
Is anyone a fan of Maren Parusel? How would you classify her music?

Jackson Interview

FearNet has up the second part of their interview with Jackson Rathbone. If you missed the first part I put that link below too.
Part 1
Part 2
Here is an excerpt:
Tell us about your guest spot on Criminal Minds, which may have been a surprising role for some fans see you in.
That was one of the roles that I, to use a vampire pun, loved sinking my teeth into. I just love playing characters that are really out there. That was a hard role; I got to work with [actor-director] Jason Alexander, who’s incredible to work with as an actor because he is an actor and he understands the difficulty in trying to play extreme characters as honestly as possible. I had a great time working on that set. I got to work with Matthew Gray Gubler a lot – he’s one of the coolest guys I’ve met so far.

Jackson Interview

MovieWeb has an interview with Jackson Rathbone.
Check it all out here.

Here is an excerpt:

You’ve done a few horror films in the past, so what was it like to get a script for a Clive Barker adaptation? What were your original thoughts on the script when you first read it?
Jackson Rathbone: Well, before I even read it, before I even knew it was a Clive Barker adaptation, I was really excited about it. Then I read it and I was blown away, to be honest. It’s a much more humanized version of that kind of dark world that Clive is famous for creating. Once I read it, I was compelled to do the project, especially since I made a friend of mine read it, and the ending kind of made him a little bit sick, which is awesome, I think.
