‘Remember Me’ Clip – “I’m Undecided”

Behind-the-scenes video of Robert Pattinson's 'Remember Me' revealed

Robert Pattinson in 'Remember Me' - Summit Ent.

A new, behind-the-scenes video of Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin's Remember Me was revealed last night on Yahoo!
The video shows a few clips from the film, but it also offers both commentary on the film and Robert Pattinson's work in it.
"He's a young guy who's a little bit lost. He meets this girl," Pattinson explains.
"Their relationship is so beautifully formed and so realistic," de Ravin says.
"She shows him how to live and how to mature, and not so much just being attracted to eachother, but knowing eachother and how important that is to actually find somebody you can really know."
"The movie revolves around that," de Ravin concludes.
"He has a very watchable, likeable intensity to him," Pierce Brosnan says of Robert Pattinson's performance.
"But he also brought all these intricate details to this character," de Ravin adds.
"He embodied this guy who's filled with complexity," director Allen Coulter says of his performance.
"Boy, was this tailor-made for him, Robert can deliver that sensitivity," Chris Cooper says.
Less than a month to go until Remember Me hits theaters!

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' board games in the works

At least two board games which will feature The Twilight Saga: Eclipse are currently in the works for distribution.
According to ToyXPlosion, Eclipse and The Twilight Saga: New Moon will be incorporated in this fall's Scene It? The Twilight Saga Deluxe Edition.

This exciting new game features content from all three films, including the summer 2010 release, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.  Relive the passion, action and suspense of the phenomenon surrounding Twilight, The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, and experience the ultimate trivia game that features all new clips, trivia and on-screen puzzles from this blockbuster franchise. For ages 13+, available Fall 2010.

In case you hadn't Scene It (okay, bad pun), the first Twilight Scene It? game came out last fall (reviewed here), and it made a big splash across the Twilight community, especially with its diverse availability (on the Wii and Nintendo DS entertainment systems).
Additionally, a The Twilight Saga: Eclipse movie board game (pictured above, which follows the fall release of the New Moon board game - reviewed here) is expected to be released as well, and in this video, MTV talks to a representative of the game company, Cardinal, about both the New Moon and Eclipse board games.

Twilight' star Billy Burke signs on for 3-D film, 'Drive Angry'

Billy Burke - AP Photo

Recently, it was announced that The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse star Billy Burke would be joining Rizzoli & Isles, a new dramatic television series, and, now, Moviehole is reporting that Burke has also joined the cast of Drive Angry.
Drive Angry, the source reports, is to be a 3-D film with the following description:

The picture, written by Todd Farmer, fixes on a rage-filled father (Nicolas Cage) hell-bent on revenge against those that killed his daughter, and kidnapped his granddaughter. The vendetta/rescue spins out of control as the chase gets bloodier by the mile, leaving bodies strewn along the highway.

That director is the same one responsible for the 3-D My Bloody Valentine (featuring Burke's Twilight series co-star, Edi Gathegi).
Reportedly, filming for Drive Angry will begin next month in Louisiana.

Twilight Inspired Tobacco Free Commercial.

This is a bit different, it’s not so much a spoof/parody as it is a public service message. However in fairness to Summit Entertainment, unless we missed something, there was no tobacco placement in any of the Twilight Saga films.

ASK ALICE: THE MANY STYLES OF ALICE CULLEN

For this week’s “Ask Alice”; a fashion tribute to the most fashionable woman of the Twilight Saga: Alice Cullen, along with a special appearance by the demanding pixie herself.
Let’s face it, where would the Cullens be without Alice?
“Probably running around in deer cloths like some cave leaches.”
Don’t be fooled by the Cullens’ gorgeous attire thinking they have all the fashion sense.
“Psssh… yeah! They wish they had my kind of talent.”
It’s because of our favorite, elegant pixie that her coven actually has shirts on their ba–
“And not just any shirts, missy! Those are Burberry button-downs the men are wearing!
Ahem… Well, it’s pretty clear Alice has quite the opinion on how this feature should go down, so why don’t I just let her do the talking. After you, darling…
Aww, thanks hon. As my writer was saying, my family would probably be shopping at somewhere horrendous like a thrift shop that has styles dating as far back as the early 20th century if it wasn’t for my knowledgeable expertise. This intelligence definitely had its shining moments during my last appearance in The Twilight Saga: New Moon. I enjoyed drawing on a variety of styles, but always keeping it fashionably presentable. Between my purple satin party dress and all the coats I wore (like the Michael Kors one I wore to Italy), I couldn’t possibly have a favorite outfit! I mean, could you? So due to an overwhelming response, I bring you my New Moon closet! I’ve placed in there all of the outfits you saw in the film — and the best part: Most of them are looks for less! Who says fashion has to be expensive? There’s a difference between frugal and cheap you know. So I say, “Be fashionably frugal!” Off you go ladies! You can’t get these sales elsewhere. The clock is ticking!! Happy shopping, everyone!

Robert Pattinson pillow joins the oddball merchandise collection

Robert Pattinson pillow - Etsy.com

Over the past few months, it's been absolutely hysterical to watch the varying forms of Twilight and cast-based merchandise come about.
Of course, no one can forget the Edward Cullen shower curtain and wall decal, but perhaps the latest is even more eccentric . . . a Robert Pattinson body pillow.
The Huffington Post came out with a story about the product, quoting its decription as follows: "Manllow: half man, half pillow...sleep with him, cuddle with him, use him as a neck rest."
Robert Pattinson isn't the only Twilight cast "Manllow" out there . . . his The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse co-star Taylor Lautner has his own as well, according to The Daily What.
According to TDW, Pattinson's is sold out.
If the word springing to your mind is a question marked "huh," you probably join legions in that reaction.

Peter Facinelli Interview

Robert and Emilie in Vogue

Vogue has posted excerpts from their interview with Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin and a couple of photos on their site.
You can check it out here.
I think Emilie is so pretty, always have. I am still debating on if I wanna see this movie or not. The trailers do look good though even though it isn’t the usual kind of movie I watch.

Robert Pattinson's Make Or Break Movie

Audiences flocked to see Robert Pattinson as a vampire, but will they come to see him as a mortal? The actor has had two previous non-"Twilight" starring roles, the Salvador Dali bio-pic "Little Ashes" and the indie coming-of-age flick "How To Be." Both movies were bombs.
Next month, Pattinson stars in "Remember Me," a romantic drama featuring some high-octane talent both in front and behind the camera. Will this movie find an audience, allowing him to prove that he can be more than a sparkly vampire or will he be forever cursed?
The movie, about a troubled lad reeling from family tragedy who finds love and comfort in the arms of a quirky young lass, boasts an impressive cast aside from Pattinson. Pierce Brosnan plays his inattentive yet well-dressed father. Emilie de Ravin of "Lost" fame sports an American accent to play Robert's love interest. "Remember Me" also boast not one, but two Oscar winners: Chris Cooper and Lena Olin along with a director, Allen Coulter, won has been Emmy-nominated for his work on "Damages" and "The Sopranos."
And, of course, there's Pattinson himself who not only is the movie's star but also its Executive Producer. His performances have always combined brooding intensity with a deft vulnerability. This movie might give him a chance to really showcase these traits.
So will audience want to see Pattinson in a romance than doesn't involve eternal life and blood sucking? Or will they give this movie a pass and wait for "Eclipse" to come out this summer. We'll find out on March 12th when the movie opens.
In the meantime, check out this exclusive behind-the-scenes featurette about the "Remember Me."

Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin's 'Vogue' feature for 'Remember Me' revealed

Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin in Vogue

As anticipated, Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin (co-stars in Remember Me) are featured in the March issue of Vogue.
The feature article opens with a trip down memory lane to a time when filming was famously interrupted by the constant prevalence of nearby fans.

"It was the most ridiculous experience," says Pattinson, flashing the sweet, shy smile those crowds hoped to see. "You're trying to stay in character and you're trying to walk down the street, but all those people keep reminding you that you're not this character, you're—"

"A show pony," cracks de Ravin, and the two burst into laughter.

This isn't the first time a Remember Me star has come out with words about the presence of fans and paparazzi in the set area. Chris Cooper, a few weeks ago, also spoke to the issue.
The Vogue article also brough forth an interesting observation by Pattinson about co-star Pierce Brosnan. While Pattinson admits that he himself "just crawl[s] under the table" when recognized in public, he says that Brosnan isn't afraid of this sort of attention. "He's totally recognizable, and he makes no effort to tone it down. Some people were glancing over at us in the restaurant, and he just went over and introduced himself. And it does work. It dissipates all the attention."

Anna Kendrick attends the Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon

Anna Kendrick - AP Photo

Yesterday, Anna Kendrick ("Jessica Stanley" in The Twilight Saga: New Moon and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse), a recently announced Oscar nominee, attended the Academy Awards Nominees Luncheon in Beverly Hills, California.
Kendrick is nominated for "Best Supporting Actress" for her work as "Natalie" in Up In The Air. 
Chances are, others of the Up In The Air cast and crew also appeared at the luncheon, as the film is nominated for "Best Picture," its director is nominated for "Best Director" and co-nominated for "Best Screenplay" with Sheldon Turner, Kendrick's co-star George Clooney is nominated for "Best Actor," and Vera Farmiga is nominated for "Best Supporing Actress" as well.
The Academy Awards will take place on March 7th at 8:00 EST, and they will be aired on ABC.
You can find out much more about the Oscars here.

'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' up for several The Scorecard Review movie awards

In this year's (the 8th annual) The Scorecard Review movie awards, The Twilight Saga: New Moon and its cast are nominated for several (okay, many) movie awards.
New Moon is nominated in the categories for "Best Blockbuster," "Best Music," "Best Action Hero" (for both "Jacob Black" and "Edward Cullen"), "Best Ending," "Best Visual Special Effects," and "Best Screenplay (Adapted)."
Robert Pattinson's ending line in New Moon [*spoiler warning*] - "I have just one condition. If you want me to do it, then marry me Bella" - is nominated for "Quote of the Year."
Kristen Stewart is nominated for "Actress of the Year (Multiple Roles)" for her work in New Moon and Adventureland, and Michael Sheen is nominated for "Actor of the Year (Multiple Roles)" for New Moon and The Damned United.
Voting for this awards group is available here, and you should note that instead of having to choose one film over the other in the traditional voting sense, TSR utilizes a ranking system.
UPDATE: As of this afternoon, New Moon and cast have been removed from the nominations list. Here's an official statement as to why:

I run The Scorecard Review … Unfortunately, I had to remove 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' choices. Too many twihards were giving everything Twilight a 10, and every other film a 1, trying to manipulate the results.

I love movies, movie fans and I have no problem with people loving Twilight, but trying to kill other movies is not the point of these awards. It was a difficult choice, as I love the attention the TSR Movie Awards have already received, but here is an example of what was happening ...

In the BEST MUSIC category, Twilight had a 9.3 score. The next highest was Crazy Heart with a 3.8. That was the next highest! In other words, there were hundreds of twihards who decided the best way for Twilight to win was to give the other nominees a 1.

I apologize to all the Twilight fans who took time, and now don't have the opportunity to vote for the film they love.

Here's a side note … Edward was beating Jacob in BEST ACTION HERO/VILLAIN/SUPERHUMAN. It's pretty funny actually. Edward had the most first place and last place votes. But officially, Team Edward was in the lead.

Michael Welch on ‘Eclipse’ Action, ‘a New Breed of Vampires’

As if we didn’t need anyone else to tell us about the greatness that is The Twilight Saga:Eclipse, here comes our buddy Michael Welch, to rub some more juicy details in our faces.

“‘Eclipse’ will be awesome,” he reveals. “It’s actually my favorite book in the series. We’re introducing a lot of new characters. The vampires and the werewolves expand. There is a new breed of vampires. I know that all-out war breaks out. It’s going to be really fun. A lot of my cast mates worked really hard in training to do a lot of the acrobatic stuff.”  

We’re guessing he means Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson? Safe bet.

But about that rumored “Twilight: Breaking Dawn” 3D two-parter?
“I don’t know if I’ll be in that. Not sure yet. I hope so though,” he says.

Breaking Dawn is the final installment(if there won’t be a Midnight Sun movie)they need to have the entire cast appear in the movie, maybe even bring back Cam Gigandet and Edi Gathegi, in a dream sequence of some sort?
So since there’s no Eclipse trailer being mentioned

Is Breaking Dawn in 3D a Good Idea?

Anything Breaking Dawn is a good idea, so get on with it already!  Entertainment Weekly’s PopWatch has a poll determining what we the fans would want to see: The Twilight Saga:Breaking Dawn(goosebumps) in 3D or not so much? Here are the pros and cons.

Pro: For the studio, there’s the extra fee on the ticket, which is guaranteed to be a hot one for Twihards regardless of its decision. Also, the still rare 3D experience could lure in moviegoers who are on the fence.
Con: For the person who sees the Twilight films purely to keep current on pop culture, having to pay more will heighten any resentment he or she may feel if disappointed.
Pro: Fast-moving vampires and werewolves should look awesome in 3D. So should Bella and Edward getting busy…
Con: Shockingly, some Twilight fans don’t want to feel like they’re in the room (or water) for those intimate moments.

At this point who cares!  Give it the green light already, I don’t know about you guys, but I’m starting to develop a serious high blood pressure condition thanks to Summit.  Check out PopWatch Poll to vote and to read the hilarious Tweets from fans about their views on 3D ‘leg hitches’.

Mike Welch to Appear in Play to Benefit Red Cross

Mike Welsh, alongside a bevvy of Hollywood talent from entertainment legends  like Ed Asner to relative newcomers like Katherine McPhee are lending their talent to the emotional and touching play 110 Stories. Mike, unlike many of the Twilight cast, does live theater every year. Frequently his performances have charity outreach nights. Broadway.com describes the event:

“An all-star cast has joined together in Los Angeles for a special benefit reading of 110 Stories, at 8pm on February 22nd at The Geffen Playhouse (10886 Le Conte Avenue, Los Angeles 90024). Proceeds go to the RED CROSS of Greater Los Angeles.

Ticket prices $57-$83 and may be purchased http://geffenplayhouse.com/110stories or at Ticketmaster http://www.ticketmaster.com/110-Stories-tickets/artist/1396005…

New York playwright Sarah Tuft, has weaved more than thirty personal stories recorded in the aftermath of September 11th. “110 Stories” is the “people’s 9/11″ and the only non-politicized, non-sensationalized version of the events, created from first-person accounts of those directly involved. The play doesn’t recreate. Instead it aims to shed light on who we really are, as revealed by extreme circumstances.

Tinsel Korey To Speak To Aboriginal Youth

This just in from Tinsel’s PR Team
‘True North Sports and Entertainment, owners and operators of the MTS Centre and the Manitoba Moose Hockey Club have invited Tinsel Korey of “Twilight Saga: Eclipse” to speak to Aboriginal youth prior to their hockey game on Saturday, February 13, 2010. The Moose play in the AHL and serve as the primary affiliate of the Vancouver Canucks in the NHL, for the past 10 seasons they have hosted an Aboriginal Youth Night prior to one of the games.
The night has been called “Follow Your Dreams”, the concept is fairly simple in nature, the goals are to encourage First Nations Youth from around Manitoba to pursue their dreams through healthy living and a very specific focus on suicide prevention, due to the high suicide rate amongst First Nations youth. The 63 First Nations Communities around Manitoba were supplied 2500 tickets to bring in youth from their area. Some of the youth travel over 21 hours with long stretches of winter ice roads to attend.
The youth who receive the tickets are then invited to attend a pre-game event at the MTS Centre, the concourse is lined with information and interactive booths that the youth can visit. The booths include education institutions who provide scholarships, community groups, healthy living groups, etc. The youth who attend the pre game event also receive a gift and a meal, so the entire night is no cost to them.
Tinsel will share her views on the importance of education and living a clean, substance free lifestyle.”
