30 More Freakin' Days!!!
Yes, Twihards & Rob fans, 30 more days til we can all get our hot little hands on a copy of The Twilight Saga: New Moon. It just seems like it was last week I waited in line for a 10:30pm showing of New Moon on the 19th of Nov. I can still hear the gasps as Jacob peels off his shirt to help Bella after she wiped out on the motorbike. They came from young girls to gay men. I saved my gasping for my beautiful Edward, as he almost reveals himself in Volterra.
If you are at all familiar with New Moon, then you know that it was on Mar 23/09 that production started and here we are, a year later getting ready to own the 2nd movie in the Saga. You can easily take a peek at what I had from last spring, when I first started blogging about my Edward. It's nice to look back on when they were filming, esp. the pix of shirtless Rob in Italy. I even have a lot of pix from Remember Me which opens in 3 wks. How time does fly.

Rob & Emilie in Vogue
Ask Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin about shooting their new movie, Remember Me, and they instantly start talking about the throngs of Twilight fans and pushy paparazzi who swarmed around them as they filmed on the streets of New York.
"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.
Although this duo could hardly be more different—de Ravin, 28, boasts the easy physical confidence of a onetime ballerina, while the slouchy 23-year-old Pattinson is all self-effacing bemusement—their effortless rapport is the emotional anchor of Remember Me. Pattinson stars as Tyler Hawkins, an alienated and confused young man from a wealthy family—"It's not too Rebel Without a Cause," he jokes—who gets involved with Ally (de Ravin), the daughter of a cop who arrested him after a street fight. Where Twilight treats him as the object of desire, a role that requires as much posing as acting, this character-driven drama brings out his most emotionally complex performance so far. Whether Tyler's raging at his distant father, Charles (played by Pierce Brosnan), or charming Ally, he has a surprisingly deft comic touch; Pattinson is now the one doing the chasing.

Choices To Make
So, I'm out at the mall the other day when I happen into HMV. You can pre-order your advance copy of "New Moon" That's the easy part, that hard part: HMV is offering 3 different DVD's. For those of you who are Team Jacob, there's a 3 disc DVD for you. Prefer Team Edward?? You can get the Edward 3 disc DVD. The other DVD is the movie poster featuring all three, Edward, Bella & Jacob. So, now I have to decide which DVD to get. Probably the Team Edward & the one featuring all three. Then I'll go across the street to my Walmart and pick up another copy that they have with EXCLUSIVE footage from "Eclipse". Let's just say, on Mar 20 I'll be a busy gal getting these DVD's

Little Ashes on DVD
Well, it's new release Tuesday and while I was out shopping at my local Walmart, picking up some cat food, I happened along to the entertainment section where I was looking for something new. Lo & behold, there was "Little Ashes" staring right back at me. It was released on DVD today in North America. Being an RPattz fan, I picked it up, not knowing what to expect with it. I mean, I did know some stuff about it from other blogs & YouTube.
Now, I have seen other works by Robert in between Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire & Twilight. I can't say I enjoyed them. GASP!! Not enjoyed something Rob filmed?? Yes, I did like "Bad Mother's Handbook" where he plays adorkable Daniel Gale, but I found "Haunted Airman" boring; "How to Be"...let's just say I wanted to smack Art upside the head for being so freakin' annoying. In "Ring of the Niebelungs" he's not a major character, but he does seem to do ok (maybe except that mullet of his).
I did enjoy "Little Ashes" While he does need to work on his Spanish accent a bit more, I found it to be a beautiful movie. A lot of people will focus on the relationship between Salvador Dali & Frederico Garcia Lorca as being on the homo-erotic side. I saw it as a beautiful relationship between 2 young men finding their way together in the midst of fascist Spain while at Art School. Sure they kiss a lot & show affection, but that's not the whole point of the movie, IMO. There was an underlying story with the onslaught of the Spanish Civil War where certain behaviors would have you sent to prison, writing poetry about freedom could have you executed. It was a story of 3 friends who met at school, who went on different paths that each other influenced in some way. It's not all about it being a gay movie. But I think I may spoiled some of the movie. It was a beautiful move. And I was surprised to hear Rob drop the F-bomb a few times...you don't get that in the Twilight Saga (can you imagine?!)

Best Kiss?? Hell Yeah!!!
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart's kiss in Twilight has been voted one of the best kisses of the last decade.
The tender moment, which occurred in the first film in the vampire saga, came fourth in the survey.
Madonna and Britney Spears' infamous lesbian kiss at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2003 topped the poll conducted by department store Selfridges.
A source described the kiss as “one of the most memorable moments ever”.
"Madonna performing with both Britney and Christina was a big enough event in itself, but nobody - even the MTV people - expected what happened,” they added.
Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst were second for their romantic embrace in Spider-Man, while Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal's kiss in Brokeback Mountain came fourth.
The top-five was completed by Scarlett Johansson and Penelope Cruz for their kiss in Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
The survey was conducted by Selfridges ahead of the opening of its kissing booth at its flagship store in London next month.
