Twilight Coven Philippines

Happy Friday the 13th everyone!

So this week was the 2010 Teen's Choice Awards, and we all knew that the Twilight Saga was nominated in a lot of categories. But, who expected Taylor Lautner to beat Robert Pattinson for two titles? Taylor walked home with the surfboards for Choice Male Hottie, which Rob won last year, and Choice Movie Actor: Fantasy. (He was up against his Twilight costar for both.) He also won Choice Red Carpet Fashion Icon: Male and the Invisalign-sponsored Choice Smile. Well, at least we know he completely deserves the last one--if there's one common comment about Taylor, it's about how white and pretty his teeth are.

Robert didn't go home empty-handed, of course. He took home the board for Choice Movie Actor: Drama for his role in Remember Me. In his acceptance speech, Rob mentioned that, "...it's great to win something outside of Twilight." We hope this is the beginning of good things for his future.

The night was capped off by another big Twilight win, but as the series won so many, they made the entire cast that was present go up on stage to accept it collectively. Among the awards we'd like to note: Rachelle Lefevre won for Best Villain for New Moon. (Rachelle tweeted her thanks to the fans after.) And Robsten won for Choice Movie: Chemistry and Choice Movie: Liplock. Kristen Stewart also won for Choice Movie Actress: Fantasy. Unfortunately, she wasn't in attendance for the ceremony due to her filming On the Road. I read that they said the show would have been arranged differently had KStew been there.

Let's not forget to mention that we won Most Fanatic Fans! I wonder if that means there were a lot of Twilight fans that voted for themselves or if other fans voted us because we're the craziest of the list? Lol.

Here's the list of Twilight Teen Choice wins c/o TVbythenumbers.com. For pictures and videos (mostly of Rob), check out RobPattzNews. Congratulations to everyone!

More Twilight on the net...
When CdL tweeted this and said our collector hearts would be pumping, she was right. Well, at least I know mine was. So, if you've ever thought that the Twilight books would look good in WHITE, you're in luck. TheBookseller.com has reported that paperback versions of the saga will be republished with white covers by Christmas. The bad news? They'll be limited edition and available only in the UK, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and India. Boooo.

Twilight Beauty cosmetics will soon have new products in the form of... nail polish. Called Nox, after the Roman goddess of night, the line of nail polish comes in 12 colors. As these are supposedly a tribute to the Cullens, each bottle is decorated on the front by the Cullen crest.
Locally, Twilight Beauty is available in American Rag stores in Festival Mall and Robinsons Place Manila. You may probably ask them if or when the nail polish will be available in their stores.

Finally, in the last round-up I asked how you would envision Bella's wedding dress? InStyle did something better and put up a gallery filled with details for Edward and Bella's wedding! They asked expert designers for their best interpretations of Bella's engagement ring (which actually looks prettier and more vintage than the oval one from the movie), bouquet, invitations, accessories, even venue! What's great is they took passages from the Breaking Dawn book about each item so you can see how they tried to make it match canon. Check out the feature and see if you agree with their take on Alice and Rosalie's bridesmaid dresses and Reem Acra's drawing of Bella's wedding gown according to how Bella herself described it.

Edit: Wouldn't you know it? After I posted the round-up, gracielou105 on Twitter reminded us that today is also Bella and Edward's wedding anniversary! Looks like the InStyle feature wasn't so random after all. :)

Not surprisingly, Twilight has snagged a lot of awards in the TCAs, winning 11 out of the 12 categories it was nominated for. Get to know what Twilight won and the other winners in MTV and E! Online. Also read and watch the reaction of the cast after the show in MTV and ET Online.

Access Hollywood also has clips on Selena Gomez’s take on Taylor Lautner’s abs and Robert Pattinson breezing by while the rest of the cast was doing an interview (freaking hilarious). Below is also another clip this time of Taylor Lautner reacting to a picture of him when he was younger and on Bryce Dallas Howard taking over for Victoria. Also, here’s a clip of Ashley Greene being exposed to the same picture. (Thanks to Rachel of Access Hollywood for the clips)



There are also tons of pictures of the cast as they attended the program. Check out the pictures of Robert Pattinson (Socialite Life| Gossip Center|Extra), Kristen Stewart (Socialite Life| Gossip Center), and Taylor Lautner, Kellan Lutz, and Nikki Reed from Socialite Life. (couple of hits and misses here.... - mabelletaka)

Okay, before I write anything else, I would just like to drop this link to the Teen Choice Awards site for our 13-19 y/o members who live in the U.S. (Sadly, this isn't like MTV where we get to go crazy on the voting, wherever we live.) As usual, Twilight has been nominated for a lot of categories! So if you want to spread the fandom love around and show people the power of the fans, go vote! :)

Now that that's out of the way, let's go for some movie news. Let's start with something about the 3rd movie, to begin filming on August 17 in Vancouver.

Twilight Saga: Eclipse now has its Riley! Riley, the newborn vampire that aids Victoria in her quest for revenge, will be played by 25-y/o Australian actor Xavier Samuel, as scooped by popular Hollywood movie blogs. Apparently those who also auditioned for the role were G.I. Joe's Channing Tatum and Harry Potter's Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy). Hm, from big franchises to another? You guys have had your share, give the new kids a chance, yeah?

On to New Moon. Things are starting to pick up as we reach the November due date of the screen sequel of Stephenie Meyer's literary baby. It's slow, but it's moving.

First off, we have two exclusives from HitFix.com: an interview with producer Wyck Godfrey and, finally, a very in-depth one with director Chris Weitz! If you're curious how far they are in post-production, here's a snippet from the latter's interview:

I am about two weeks away from showing the director's cut to the studio. I've got some wolves with fur. Some wolves are still invisible basically and some wolves are like -- you've all probably seen the claymation versions. We are still in the light RD phases of what Edward looks like when he's hit -- what the vampires look like when he's hit with light and the diamond effect. Also, the kind of hallucinatory effect Bella has when she hears Edward's voice and she imagines him there. And then we are Alexandre Desplat has just started working on his music for the film. And we are just starting to put together what acts will be on the soundtrack, so it's kind of like keeping ten plates spinning at once, but it's all good because we've got Alexander Desplat who I think is one of the greatest film composers living and because of the kind of the strength of the franchise that I inherited, a lot of bands are really interested in working on the soundtrack and we got visual effects people. And that just leaves me hopefully not dropping the ball in terms of editing together the story.

Oh, and he mentioned something about horse-sized wolves, too. So maybe we won't be seeing puppies in the final cut? Crossing fingers now.

Set visit reports have also gradually been posted. Here's Day One of HitFix's featured set visit. Here's another by Hollywood.com. Even Rotten Tomatoes has its own set report! [minamic: I'm surprised, is all.] All three of them seem to have stumbled on the Volturi scene, and judging from the descriptions, it seems like Dakota Fanning's short scenes will be something to watch out for.

More on New Moon: Thom Yorke and Kings of Leon for the soundtrack? And a better look at the character designs for Edward, Bella and Jacob of the Twilight Graphic Novel from Everglow.

Since we're on the subject of graphic novels, Comic Con is upon us once again, and although Robert Pattinson will be attending, unfortunately, he will not be in any backstage interviews. Although this greatly reduces our RPattz eye-candy quota for the year, there are a few others to make up for it, namely four extra-hot wolves, Jamie Campbell-Bower, and Michael Sheen.

And if that still doesn't make up for it, maybe consider curling up under a Twilight throw blanket while eating your New Moon chocolate.
