::Team Breaking Dawn:: Stephenie Meyer OPPOSED to spliting Breaking Dawn

It's a new year, a new decade, and time for more "Twilight" drama! Surprisingly enough, this time it doesn't involve any of the cast members or crew, but instead the big moguls behind the series itself. E! Online's Ted Casablanca reports news from his Deep Twi that Stephenie Meyer and Summit Entertainment still having disputes over whether "Breaking Dawn" should be one film or two, which is what is causing production on the final installment of the film series to be at a standstill.
"Both sides have very different agendas," Ted reports his mole as saying.
Apparently Stephenie doesn't think two movies is the right thing to do "creatively" for the series (and neither do we), while Summit wants to milk its cash cow for all it's worth. Things haven't gotten dirty yet, but the way "Deep Twi" describes it, all the pressure is on Stephenie.

"They keep trying to persuade her it's the right thing to do artistically. They're constantly waiting for her input," the source is reported to have said.
At this time last year, after the success of "Twilight," shooting for "New Moon" was already underway and a director for "Eclipse" was being picked. Now, "New Moon" has already been released and "Eclipse" is in the editing room, but there hasn't even been a director picked out for "Breaking Dawn." "Eclipse" is set to hit theaters in five months, and if some major steps haven't been made in film production by then, Summit and Stephenie are going to have a lot of angry, anxious fans on their hands.

::Team Breaking Dawn:: Summit Speaks. FINALLY! Chris Weitz not looking good for BD.



Summit on Breaking Dawn: No decision on how many films, “don’t think” Weitz directsAmong the many topics discussed here on this blog, and especially on my Twitter, are questions about The Twilight Saga. More specifically, "what's the deal with Breaking Dawn?" I've avoided saying too much here because most of the information being posted (leaked) has been nothing but rumors and speculation. But thanks to the astute Los Angeles Times' writer Gina McIntyre, we may have some bonafide facts.

Let's get right to the bottom line: McIntyre spoke directly with the film's producer Wyck Godfrey, who is stating publicly that no decision has yet been made as to whether or not the Breaking Dawn novel will be split into two scripts (and two movies) or one. But we've heard that before. What is news, though, is that he is all but confirming that New Moon director Chris Weitz will NOT be back to helm Breaking Dawn, one film or two. He's also confirming that the three stars are on board and the plan is to begin shooting this fall in Vancouver.

"I think everyone would be happy and excited if he came back, but I don't think it's going to happen," Godfrey told The Times. "But right now we're just focused on the treatment and getting that right. At that point, we're going to see who's available and who's appropriate. It's such a complicated book because you have the emotions and the intensity of the love story -- so you need somebody who's just a wonderful director of actors -- and yet it's really complicated from an action and visual effects standpoint. They've got to have both tools in their kit."

As for breaking up Breaking Dawn into two films, "It's a work in process," said Godfrey. "The issue [of whether there will be one or two movies] is not going to be resolved until we get the full treatment and see whether it's organic. If it's not organic, I don't think it will be done, and if it is, it will be. It really has to do with how much level of detail from the books there is, with all of these new vampires that appear in Breaking Dawn, the whole section about Jacob...It's a very long single movie if it does become a single movie."

The three principal actors, Kristen Stewart, Rob Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner have apparently completed their negotiations and are "signed," indicating that Summit may have brokered a deal which would cover either one or two movies. Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg is back on board and hard at work on what will be either one or two films, but whatever the outcome, Breaking Dawn will be made "with an eye toward beginning to shoot in Vancouver this fall."

My own sources have confirmed the information contained in McIntyre's article.

::Team Carlisle:: Peter Facinelli On Keeping His Twitter 'Pure': 'I Don't Want To Sell My Followers'

Peter Facinelli tells Access Hollywood about keeping his Twitter pure and not selling his followers anything. He does not intent to use this outlet for commercial use.

He was quoted saying, "It's a great way to share information with them and it's also a great way to entertain, I like being able to put a smile on people's faces and I like being able to also mix that up with sharing information with them that's important and also letting them know what I'm doing. I mean I've had people come to me and say, 'Hey, will you Tweet this out?' There's like paid advertisement stuff. I'm not into that. I like to keep my Twitter pure. I don't want to sell my followers anything."

::Team Edward:: RPattz to star in Comic Book


Robert Pattinson to star in comic book. Coventry Telegraph is reporting that Robert Pattinson is going to be one of the celebrities to star in a new comic book series titled "Fame". Lady Gaga is to kick off a new comic book series revolving around the lives of pop culture icons.

Future issues of Bluewater's "Fame" series will focus on various stars such as Robert Pattinson, 50 Cent, David Beckham and Taylor Swift.

“Fame gives us the ability to tell more interesting stories about a wider variety of notable personalities. Conversely, it allows us to focus the scope of our other biography titles to more socially and political important figures.” Davis added. What do you guys think of Robert being a comic book icon? As if he needs any more fame boosters, am I right?

::Team Twilight:: Why didn't we see our huge win on the People's Choice?

Good Morning Sparkly Ones,

I am distraught this morning. Well, just a little. Why didn't we see our HUGE win on the People's Choice Awards last night? Ok it was good. I do dearly love me some Queen Latifah and Johnny Depp but after looking at the actual WINNERS I am kinda pissed. It was a TWI-FECTA!

If you watched even a tad of the show last night you know they only showed TayTay winning. Weeeeeel now... that is so not the story!

Now that the winner's have been released we know that Twilight DOMINATED the awards. MEGA dominated, but we saw NOTHING.

And that, my lovies, is why I am kinda pissed!!!

Ok, We vampire lovers can give a few kissey kisses to the dog every now and again but when Twilight wins for The People's Choice as BEST MOVIE and we don't get to see that I get a little unhappy!!!!

So far as I can tell we kicked ass for The People's Choice as:

Best Movie - Twilight
Best Soundtrack - Twilight
Best Rock Band - Paramore for Decode
Best on Screen Team - Rob, Kris and Tay
Best Movie Franchise - Twilight


According to all the Hollywooders Twilight FTW on all accounts! Now why didn't I get to see that on the show. Yes Lord Johnny Depp is hot but he is not Edward Freaking Cullen.


Ok I have vented. Enjoy your day.
