‘Twilight’ Busy Year

Say “Welcome” to our new contributing writer, Jeremy B.!

Breaking Dawn to start filming on September 1st? Eclipse DVD to be released November 1st? Twilight Parody Vampires Suck movie comes out this Wednesday, it seems as if the Entertainment world is finally giving us something to keep ourselves Twilight-busy until the Breaking Dawn premiere in late 2011. Most fans are worried that the upcoming year will be dull & have no “Twilight-Excitement” but Twilight Producers & other big spot TV names are working into making this year as exciting as it can be! I myself am a little worried that if, in this next year, fans loose interest in the lack of “Twilight Suspense,” they may not want to come back in the premiere for Breaking Dawn. The cast sure is living their great lives, beyond the fact that they will all be sent back to work, while we all get sent back to school. Hopefully Breaking Dawn director, & producers, will make some sort of ‘Early Trailer’ or ‘Sneak Peak’ in the next couple of months- just so we can get a glance at what is coming our way!

Renesmee| ?

by Admin on Sep.03, 2010, under Twilight News

The Character

Name: Renesmee Carlie Cullen

Type: Half Vampire & Half Human

Special Ability: Tactile Thought Projection & Anti-shield.

About Them: Born on September 10, 2006, Renesmee Carlie Cullen is a vampire/human hybrid, & a member of the Olympic Coven. She is the daughter of Edward Cullen & Bella Swan, & the imprintee of Jacob Black. Renesmee is considered to be Edward & Bella’s “miracle”, because of what it took to keep her & her mother alive through the pregnancy.

Renesmee is depicted as being very beautiful. She is described as having the facial features of her father, Edward, (high cheekbones, straight nose & full lips) as well as his unusual bronze hair color. However, she inherited curly hair from her gr&father, Charlie Swan, portrayed as ringlets that fall past her waist. Her eyes are described as chocolate brown, just like her mother, Bella’s, were while she was still human. She has pale skin, which has a blush to it because her heart pumps blood (though it beats faster than a normal human heart). Her skin is as tough as a vampire’s, but her temperature seems to be unusually warm, only a few degrees below that of a werewolf.

Their Early History: After Edward & Bella are married, they spend their honeymoon on an isl& the Cullen family owns off the coast Rio de Janeiro: Isle Esme, a gift from Carlisle to Esme. At this point, Edward can’t deny Bella the human experience of sex any longer despite his fear of harming her, as they had a deal, & they engage in sex on several occasions. After finding tampons in her bag, she notices that her period is 5 days late, & a hard, growing, bump protruding from her hips, realizing she is pregnant. Bella refuses to have an abortion, determined to carry the child, trusting that Edward will save her by turning her into a vampire after she gives birth & that Carlisle will save the baby if something goes wrong.

Bella gives birth to Renesmee & she almost die while doing it. But as always, Edward´s there to save her & Bella becomes a vampire & both Bella & Renesmee made it through without anyone dying.

Actor Biography

The actor for Renesmee is still unknown but we´ll update this post as soon as we get to know who the actor will be.

Summer movie-ticket sales fall 6% from 2009

by Admin on Sep.03, 2010, under Twilight News

The Hollywood Reporter weighs in on this summer’s movie ticket sales:

Summer 2010 won’t set a box-office high, & fewer tickets have been sold than in any swimsuit season in more than a decade.

The industry’s near-flat summer revenue is largely because of a shorter industry season this year, featuring 18 weekends compared to a year-earlier 19. The box-office season ends Monday, with projections showing $4.24 billion in industry coin collected between May 7 & Labor Day, or slightly 1% less than in summer 2009.

But summer admissions are down almost 6%, to a projected 538 million. Hollywood hasn’t marked a new summer admissions high since 2004, when 642 milliontickets were sold, according to the National Association of Theatre Owners.

Exhibitors charged an average $7.88 for summer movie tickets, up 4.5% from $7.54 last summer, NATO said. That compares with an almost 6% ticket-price jump between summer 2008 & last year, when the spread of premium pricing in 3D venues fueled a more dramatic inflation in moviegoing costs.

Summer 2010 produced 11 films that rang up more than $100 million apiece, three fewer than last year. That simply means there were too few attractive films in the market, Corcoran suggested.

“There’s been too much emphasis on the increase in ticket prices,” the NATO spokesman said. “It’s too quick & easy to point to ticket prices & say that’s the reason a summer does better or worse. The difference in almost any year is how attractive the movies are to an audience.”

But, as usual, the summer triggered a few likely franchises.
