Muse's "Neutron Star Collision (Love is Forever)" video

The video for Muse's "Neutron Star Collision (Love is Forever)", the first single off the Eclipse soundtrack, debuted on MTV.com today and it's as epic as the song's stadium riffs!!! This video is so chocked full of Eclipse clip candy that I can barely get through this post without watching it again--oh, wait, I just did! I about bounced out of my chair when I saw the Cullens lined up en masse and ready for battle. Only 43 days!!!!

Robert Pattinson on 'Ellen'


I am off work today so I had the joy of watching Rob on Ellen today live-ish.Typical Rob has no idea what day it is and claims to have zero cognitive activity in his trademark self-deprecating style, but we get the dish on his new haircut. It's for a new movie called Water for Elephants with Reese Witherspoon about a veterinary student (Rob) who joins a 1930's circus as their vet.

New 'Eclipse' TV spot & stills

There's a new Eclipse TV spot out on the airwaves. Sorry the vid is so janky, but I couldn't not post it! And I included some wicked stills of roastin' newborns, Bella's infamous blue jacket's reappearance and a fiercely vengeful Victoria to sweeten the deal.

First single off 'Eclipse' soundtrack released- Muse's "Neutron Star Collision (Love is Forever)"

The first single off the Eclipse soundtrack was released today and it's joyously ever so very Edward & Bella. It's sweeping piano makes me think of 1900's Edward courting his soul mate, and the lyrics are thoughtfully relevant to Eclipse's plot. Enjoy Museies!

PS The Eclipse soundtrack official website has artist blogs and videos that are definitely worth checking out. Click here to visit the official site. 


 Muse- "Neutron Star Collision (Love is Forever)"


The video with integrated Eclipse clips will be debuted on MTV & VH1 on May 20th at 8pm.

Stephenie Meyer plans Twi centric junket for 'Eclipse'

This is so infinitely cool, and why we love Stephenie Meyer so much--she gets us! I've always hated when she did talk shows because it was all you had a dream and now you're a mega star. How do you balance life? Will you ever write about vampires again? blah, blah, blah. Now we can get down to the juicy stuff like feathers and imprinting! 

I really wish I worked for one of the winning sites! Congrats Twifans! Message from StephenieMeyer.com :
May 17, 2010
Hey guys,
I want to do something different with publicity for this movie release. For Twilight, I did the normal press junket, for New Moon I got to go on Oprah. Both of these were fun, exciting experiences. However, they both had the same drawback—the interviews were designed for a very broad audience, and because of that, most of the questions were about things you guys have known the answers to for years. I feel like all of the basic questions have been answered, and for Eclipse I want to focus on the more specific questions of the readers. To accomplish that, I'm hosting my own mini-junket with a few fansites. It will be held on Friday, June 18th, the week before the L.A. premiere.


Unfortunately, I can't talk to every single site, and I want to keep this as low key and enjoyable as possible. So I put all the U.S. fansites in a hat (for logistical reasons, we had to keep this in the country) and drew out four names.
Drawing from a hat 1 Drawing from a hat 2 


The names I drew were:
Each of these sites is invited to send two members of their staff (or one member and a guest) to our fan-centric mini-junket. You will be contacted shortly by my assistant, who will give you all the specific information. In the event that any of the sites is unable to send representatives, I've already drawn four back up sites, which I will post if it becomes necessary.


I'll answer all of your questions (and your readers questions, if you want to poll them) about the Eclipse Movie, and the Bree story, as well, which will have been out for a few weeks by then. We'll have lunch, hang out, and hopefully have a fantastic time. I hope you all can make it!
-Steph

'Eclipse' merch now available

Eclipse merch now available at Hot Topic & Nordstrom’s and the theme is lots of crests, swirls and pack tats and red, red, red. This is a highly newborn influenced line. BUT Team Switzerland finally gets a shout out. (Thank you Hot Topic!) 

Personally, I'll be branding myself a Newborn via Nordstrom's gray tee so no matter how cranky I get it's justified.

Nordstrom's  is also offering an advanced screening of Eclipse with a $50.00 purchase. Holy wow, right?! You receive one ticket to the June 29 screening by taking your receipt to the customer service counter at your local Nordstrom's. Times will vary by location. Offer only valid while supplies last. See store for details--blah, blah.  

Added bonus, Nordstrom's is having a style contest in which the winner gets tickets to the June 24 Hollywood premiere of Eclipse! Click for official Rules.

New 'Eclipse' clips from Oprah

These clips were totally worth listening to Oprah mispronounce Eclipse (E-clipse) and phenomenon (Fe-nomenin) for an hour. Enjoy our charmingly over protective, jealous Edward and Jacob's usual shirtless self!

"Doesn't he have a shirt?"


"I kissed Bella"

Get a taste of evil Jane in new 'Eclipse' clip

In honor of TW-Oprah day AND Rob's 24th birthday, we have a spanking new clip from Eclipse. This is why I love Jane; her deliciously evil little quips. I'll be adding "Decisions, decisions..." to my repertoire. 


PS If you missed Oprah today, (what is wrong with you?!) there were some intense jealous Edward scenes revealed and a "doesn't he have a shirt" thrown to Jacob. To answer your question Edward, yes, Jacob has a shirt but he knows better than to cover up all that Quileute magnificence. Oh, and feel free to join him!

Rundown of 'Eclipse' screening for Oprah guests

I know I already posted about the astonishing news that Oprah treated some lucky twi-hards to a screening of a rough cut of Eclipse yesterday, but it was a bewildered rambling at best. Here's a more coherent rundown from MTV.com.Plus I just really wanted to post this new screencap of the Cullen boys. Yum!

'Eclipse' Screened For 'Oprah' Audience: A Roundup Of Reviews And Reactions!

In the midst of the confusion yesterday where we tried to figure out what exactly was going on with the "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" world premiere, some very, very, very lucky "Oprah" guests we invited quietly to a little premiere of their own. Oprah taped her "Eclipse" show — set to air next May 13 — today, and to prepare her guests to ask topical questions to Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Dakota Fanning, she showed them an early cut of "Eclipse."
 
Yes, you read that right. Some "Twilight" fans have already seen "Eclipse," and they probably aren't you. But Twi-hards aren't the greedy type, and quickly took to Twitter to share their wealth of information with the world — one, in fact, exclaimed: "OH MY GOD!!!! Eclipse was absolutely AMAZING. Better then both New Moon & Twilight! Holyy crappp =O." In between the "OME!!"s and drooling, we were able to pick out some pretty interesting information that of course we are going to share with you.

There had been some concern after the final "Eclipse" trailer premiered that this third installment in the "Twilight Saga" would sacrifice the love story for the action (apparently everyone forgot the first trailer, which showed us otherwise). The unanimous response was that the love story is definitely still there, and it is very hot and heavy. This means, yes, the leg hitch, the tent scene and Bella and Jacob's kiss all make the final cut, and, as one Twitter user claimed, were enough to "get her turned on." And yes, the scene where Bella punches Jacob is also included, though we never doubted that it wouldn't be in the film.

But that doesn't mean that the action wasn't great either. This was an early cut of the film so some of the animation was still a bit off, but everyone seemed to think that it was the best action of the series. The fact Jasper was featured quickly but clearly in the second trailer's fight scene tipped us off to the fact that he and Alice were going to be pretty prominent in the action sequences, but apparently they get a lot more face time throughout the entire film, and actually get a chance to really interact with each other. Unfortunately, Jackson Rathbone's wig is supposed to be pretty bad, but Kristen's is better since the first trailer.

Which brings us to some other exciting news: everyone loved Jasper and Rosalie's flashbacks. We already knew that Jasper would be seen horse back in Civil War regalia, but apparently this was news to other people. As far as Rosalie's flashback goes, we read that her entire conversation with Bella lasts about five minutes, but the actual flashback is only about two minutes. This is kind of a let-down, but if a picture is worth a thousand words we're guessing David Slade was able to do a lot with those two minutes.

It's been a bit of a trend that fans keep labeling the newest director in each "Twilight" film as being better than all the previous ones (sorry, Catherine Hardwicke). Unsurprisingly, there were many claims that David Slade did a great job with "Eclipse" and that he's the best director yet, which is exactly what Chris Weitz predicted "New Moon." This also is allegedly the funniest of all the "Twilight" films so far, so if David can top "Face Punch," we're going to be really impressed.

Alice Cullen Barbie doll--FINALLY!

Hey Tw-eeps! New TW-arbie dolls are out. This time we get to add Victoria & Alice to our collection. (And, no, I have no problem as a twenty-eight yr. old buying a Barbie for the sake of just being a girl!) They both look wicked fabulous, but let's get real, it's about damn time Alice got her own Barbie--girl IS Barbie.On that note, where the hell is Rosalie?!? Murdering Ken for dumping her for Skipper? Rosalie was a sparkly marble glamazon way before Barbie even knew what dream house meant. 

Bring on the rest of the Cullens please, Mattel.
