トワイライト・シリーズ Article: What is Summit Doing With the Trailers?

posted by mandapanda

I'm sure, によって now, most of あなた have seen the New Moon Teaser Trailer 2 that was posted. Although it was in french, I'm going to talk about it and it's misinterpretation.

Positive コメント first! It's great to see snippets of new scenes! We got to see:
- the 狼, オオカミ pack
- Jacob in Bella's Room
- sneak peek of the Volturi
- cliff diving
- Victoria
- Edward and Bella's Italy kiss
- movie theatre J/B talk

They all look great! And it makes us want to see the movie もっと見る if that's possible!

Now the negativity. When I analyze the trailer and get critical, sometimes I get pretty negative if I'm not pleased. So I apologize.

WHAT IS SUMMIT THINKING!

Let's pretend that we don't know anything about Twilight または the series. We see this in the theatre. Edward leaves Bella. She's depressed, then Jacob comes and jumps in her window, they hug. They are on motorcycle's, they touch. He's in her house, they almost kiss. Oh, but then, she's in a huge crowd of crimson red, etc etc.

Is it just me, または is there too much Jacob? Yes, yes. I know Jacob is in the book more! But, isn't the trailer missing Bella's pain and depression? What did the trailer focus on? Jacob and Bella's friendship. Yes, they grow closer in the book, but why do they grow closer? Because Bella can't live without Edward! Everything in her world reminds her of him, and the only thing that helps her contain herself, is to be with Jacob.

I understand that it's a trailer, and that they can't 表示する everything. I completely understand that. And I'm not judging the movie from the trailers. But, I do believe Summit is trying EXTREMELY hard to sell Jacob and Taylor to the fans. Why not have Kristen give a little commentary during the trailer? Why Taylor? It's Bella's book isn't it?

I hate what Summit is doing. Trying to sell the series with eye candy. Yeah, the guys are amazingly attractive. But, if they are trying to "stay true to the books", then they won't doing a good job. The 本 aren't about that.

As much as I enjoyed this trailer, I was disappointed that they put alot of Jacob in it and didn't 表示する any of the Cullens. But we shall see for the theatrical trailer that comes out around October. :)

***Just a note: Please understand, this isn't to bash Chris Weitz または the cast. I 愛 them both! But, it is, in fact, a statement of what I think Summit tries to do with the series. This just happens to be a negative review. But no worries. I'm positive the movie will be great. I just hope they will focus on Bella's pain and how she can't possibly live without Edward. :)***

Thanks for reading. And コメントまたは rebuttals would be awesome!

ashesandwine I totally agree with!!!! Where is Bella's pain? Where are the Cullens ( I know that they go away on the book...but still they could have put somethiing)? I was a little disapointed with this trailer and altough I don't have anything against the director or the producers, they could have done much better:D That's just my opinion...I'm not judging anyone and please don't get offended by what I think!!!

mandapanda Twifanpire: that's fine. This article was a way to express what I felt about the trailer. I loved it, but i tend to get critical. And when I get critical, it seems that this trailer just didn't sum up New Moon like it should. :)

mandapanda ^^ Right :) I still liked the trailer, really, but when I get critical, that's when I get negative sometimes :)

cr6zym0nkeyiz i thought that since it new moon yes jacob is supposed to be in it more but i agree wit u that the bella and pain part= there almost none. i seen like one small part of bella in pain. it kinda seemed like every scene was wit jacob which im not complaining buh they couldve put a little of maybe angelea, mike, or jessica......i mean jacob was in there 24/7 almost....im surprised that they even put jane and victoria in there....thank god they did.. omg. yes. yes. yes....since jacob is in the trailer soooooo much i also think bella should have some interview thingy parts.....i didnt even knoe that was an interview at first i had to watch it a few times and then seen the translations....hahaha....XD buh i actually loved the traiiler or exclusive (whteva it was).......except for the interview ppart wit taylor lautner....thank u thank u thank u for putting that kiss at the beginning summit....meh love that.

gamegirl380 Holy crap! There's a second one out?!?! Where can I see it? TELL ME!!!!!!!!

mandapanda ^^well, it's the one that will be shown at Bandslam. But the ones that have been uploaded have been removed due to copyright. But this one still works :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrzA84wrrFQ&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcommunity%2Elivejournal%2Ecom%2Flion%5Flamb%2F5391638%2Ehtml%3Fpage%3D11&feature=player_embedded

camillia_ i totally understand you . summit could've put more of the story into the trailers . we all know that 90% of new moon is pratically the jacob & bella story , and only 10% of it is bella & edward . but still , they could've put a little bit more edward & the cullens in there , its true , they could've put more of bella's depression and pain in there too . isn't that one of the main ideas of the story and the movie , anyways .. bella's pain from the love of her life , sorry , i mean the love of her existance leaving her ? hopefully , they release a couple more trailers and put more into it , the next few months before new moon is released .

mandapanda ^^I'm glad you agree, but i do have to disagree with you on a point you made. 90% of New Moon is not Bella and Jacob. New Moon is 100% about Bella and Edward. Everything Bella does has some connection with Edward. When she buys the bikes, when she jumps off the cliff, when she goes to Jacob. It's all her attempt to distract her and to hear him. She knows she can hear Edward when she does reckless activities. So, she purposely endangers her life to hear him. He may not be there physically, but his presense is there. In her thoughts, in everything she sees. Every single thing reminds her of Edward.

nneellliii I totally agree with you!

Kayla, Other Versions of Chapter 10

posted by twilight-7

As あなた know I 発言しました I did two other versions of Chapter 10. Foreveryours asked if I could post them on and I thought 'Why not?' so here it is. あなた will see some similaraties between them and Chapter 10 but あなた know I kinda merged them together to make Chapter 10. These versions will not be accounted for in the continuation of the Kayla series. They are 投稿されました on here entirely for your interest as to how things could have turned out. They both start out the same way as Chapter 10. So here it goes!

[Note: I didn't call Edward 'The Lion' until the final Chapter 10. In the vampire version he is...

Edward's thoughts - bold
Kayla's thoughts - italics

I had managed to make it through a whole 月 of school without anything unusual happening. The murders had seemed to stop. No one in または around Forks had been killed so maybe the newborn had learned not to kill so often または someone had dealt with it. I felt kind of disappointed that I hadn’t been able to go after it and teach it a thing または two. I think it would be quite fun battling a newborn but since it decided to stop I guess I’ll just have to wait. Edward and I continued to have our silent conversations. It was weird, him being inside...

CHAPTER 11

Edward’s POV

I don’t know why I ran, but I did. And now that I think about it, it was one of the stupidest things I did.
I was nearly half way ホーム when I heard someone following me, so I went even faster.
“Edward, I 愛 you” She screamed. I stopped abruptly. Then I thought about it.
“Bella?” I 発言しました in my head, confused.
“I 愛 you” I felt the force that she put into it. She was struggling もっと見る than me.
I ran back and stopped about a hundred ft away from...

here it is!

Edward's thoughts are in bold and Kayla's in italics.

I looked at Dr Cullen, worried I had put him a difficult situation. I wanted to explain to him that he didn’t need to leave, that I wasn’t going to blab to the whole town about what he and his family were. But how could I tell him?
I looked down at the dead man on the floor. I knew that this wasn’t an animal attack. The Azdi part of me was telling me this, 表示中 me the difference between an animal attack and a vampire attack. I also knew that this was no ordinary vampire attack. It was too messy.
“Dad, I’m going outside.”...

So here it is, Chapter 4.

I opened my eyes and the first thing I noticed was that the pain in my head had gone. I sighed with relief and the 秒 thing I noticed was that I could count all the cracks on the ceiling. I smiled. I sat up and realised that I was on my bed. I looked at the clock and saw it was eight in the morning. I groaned and jumped out of bed. I landed lightly on my feet. I quickly threw on a clean pair of jeans and a tee shirt. I brushed my hair as fast as I could and shoved on the first pair of socks I could find. I ran downstairs and into the キッチン and found Charlie eating...

Kayla, Exlanation for the Confused

posted by twilight-7

READ BEFORE GOING ON TO CHAPTER 4!!

Ok so some of あなた were confused によって Kayla’s purpose. Do not fret. An explanation of what her purpose, why she has to protect people, and basically everything Charlie 発言しました to her is coming up now.

Kayla is an Azdi. These are a race of people that protect humans. That is there sole purpose. They protect humans from any attack によって a スーパーナチュラル being. For example, if a Nahadriah was on the loose running around like a mad man killing innocent humans, the nearest Azdi to the place where the killings were taking place would deal with the creature によって either destroying...

His eyes searched mine, almost as if he was trying to read me. His eyebrows creased together and his gaze became もっと見る intense. The small dark haired girl turned around, wanting to know why her partner had let the shuttlecock fall. She followed his gaze to me and gave me a smile, 表示中 bright white teeth. He gave me one last gaze and returned to his game. I looked away from him and back to Mike who had been watching me watching the boy.
“Who’s that?” I asked, nodding at...

Translated Spanish Interview with Kristen

posted by mandapanda

What was the casting process like?

I was on another world filming Advetureland in Pittsburgh. It’s funny how I didn’t know anything about the book before being offered the role. To me, Twilight was just another script that came to my hands. I auditioned without knowing it was a highly coveted role.

What made あなた say “I have to play this part” after あなた read the book?

I have two お気に入り scenes, but the one that really stands out for me is when Edward reveals himself to Bella in the meadow under the sunlight. It’s when Bella takes control of everything.

How do あなた see the character of...

Twilight vs Harry Potter- give it up

As あなた can tell によって the タイトル I don't care who people prefer, to me they are completly different 本 in completly different genres- I mean would あなた ever see Ron fighting a grizzly bear. Okay so it is possible, but he isn't going to get golden eyes when he drinks it's blood, seriously?

So I decided to end this fight once and for all- although I didn't intentially come across this, I just found it on: link ,so that shows how bored あなた get to go to this extent when there's hardly any new Twilight news-right? It's a slow 日 today.

Ending of Chapter 3

It wasn't raining as much in the woods, the trees protected me from the rain. I didn't realize how cold it had gotten until I noticed the ガチョウ bumps tickle on my arms. I wrapped my arms around myself, still crying and kept walking until my legs and feet grew tired. I spotted a rock and wiped it off before I sat down. I hugged my knees close to my body.

“I can't say here. Where can I go? Renee is traveling with Phil. Would Charlie even let me leave? He wouldn't understand....

I cannot believe I have left him. But its for the best. He KILLED my parents. または if あなた want to put it specifically, he killed my mum and his brother (Emmett) killed my dad. And he expects me to stay with him after that. Uh-huh, right.
I don’t know what I would have done without Sara. She really is nice, once あなた get to know her. She has taught me the ways of living as a nomadic vampire. Without her I would have been crying at the Cullens’ doorstep によって now. I don’t...

third chapter, full of shocks and crazy twists...enjoy!

The La Push students stood out among the vast amounts of students at school. They were tanner, and wore brighter Colors（色） than us, a very unusual; thing to do in Forks where your covered in an unclear haze of rain and shadow. The La Push kids mostly kept to themselves, at lunch in most classes, but there would be a rare occasion that they would have to communicate with あなた for an assignment または for something they needed help with. I was lucky to be in mostly senior classes, so I didn’t have to worry about that too much. If I sounded stupid,...

Robert Pattinson: 'I Couldn't Live Without Music'

22-year-old British actor says 音楽 is an important part of his life

Twilight 星, つ星 Robert Pattinson has become an overnight celebrity since starring as the alluring Edward Cullen in the hit vampire romance.

Adding to Rob's own mystique is the fact that the actor has not been seen publicly since Dec. 22, when he landed at London's Heathrow Airport for the クリスマス holidays. But this has had no effect on Pattinson's skyrocketing 星, つ星 status.

Fortunately for Rob's fans, international media interviews have recently been released providing some interesting insights into the British heartthrob's introspective...

Prologue

I never thought it would happen like this. The Quileute’s on my left, and the Cullen’s on my right. Both people I thought I could 愛 and trust. Both ready to kill me. I waited in weary anticipation as Edward and Jacob took two steps towards me, both looking upset yet focused at the same time. I felt my new family stir uneasily behind me, bound によって the...

This is my first fanfiction so I need あなた to be honest and tell me what あなた think!

I dont own Twilight または any of it's characters.

My mother kissed my forehead softly, “You know sweetie, あなた don’t have to do this if あなた don’t want to.” Her eyes bored into mine and for a 秒 I actually considered staying in Phoenix. But I knew Phil would be going on the road soon, and I also knew how hard it was for Renee to be away from her new husband. I didn’t want that.

Chapter two guys.

I opened my eyes slowly, noticing the time was 5:34. Early. I closed my eyes again rolling over to my other side. I could sleep for another 時 before I had to get up and start my morning routine for school. I could hear Charlie moving around the house downstairs, probably making himself breakfast, and then I smelled burnt toast. Yup. Definitely making himself breakfast. I turned a few times trying to get comfortable when I heard the rocking chair in the corner creak. I peeked through my eyelashes holding my hand over my eyes, shielding the daylight coming in through the window....

I pulled into the school parking lot. Most of the cars were old so my old truck didn`t stand out to much. “Oh my gosh あなた must be Isabella 白鳥, スワン right? I`m like Jessica and this is Angela, Mike, Eric, and Tyler. I`m so glad you’re coming here what’s your first class?” A girl about 5 foot 5 has wild, curly, dark brown hair and blue eyes was introducing me to her friends. “Hey please call me Bella not Isabella.
