Twilight on MSNBC, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the AP

There is a video on The Associated Press where Robert talks about Twilight and Catherine talks about the chemistry between Robert and Kristen.  Find it here.  Thanks to Athena for heads up. 

The Associated Press also have posted the article about Twilight. 

"Edward is the reluctant 180-year-old vampire stuck in the body of a

17-year-old boy who falls in love with a mortal and destroys both of

their lives, in a romantic and loving way," Pattinson said.

Thanks to Shel and Bluebelle for the heads up.

**NOTE:  Many people have comments on the following points.  No need to panic.  First, Robert says 108 year old vampire.  The reporter writing the article misunderstood him thanks in part to his accent, and thus he was quoted as saying 180 year old vampire.  Second, when Catherine is talking about a love scene, she is talking about a romantic scene such as the meadow scene.  Rest assured, one of the deals of the film is that it will stick to the book on the nature of Edward and Bella’s relationship.  All bedroom scenes refer to being in Bella’s bedroom just as they are many times over in the series and nothing more.

    “Stephanie Meyer is a Scott Westerfeld fan and has been going out of her way to tell her foreign publishers how much she loves his books. Thank you, Stephanie Meyer!”

    -Scott is her husband. And, yeah, she spelled her name wrong lol. Every one loves stephenie :)

    edward is 108 years old! not 180 yrs old. pattinson says 108, the lex and yahoo news messed that up. will someone please fix it before i go insain? woah i just spazzed, sorry about that it was an honest mistake. ok so i guess everyone knows the ocd part of me lol. :)

    The quote comes directly from the article.  It is not ours to change.  I am sure it was just a typo.

    Okay..I loved the video..but I have two complaints; one about the video..the other about the article. 1. The video title was something about lust. NO thats wrong they are not in lust; they are in irrivocably, uncontrolable L O V E. and 2. the article said Edward is 180… NO! hes 106 turning 107 on June 20. urghh

  5. tiffi says:

    oops hes currently 106 yrs old. not 108. my bad *hangs head* call me a hipocrite

  6. TeamRobert! says:

  11. Julia says:

    ahh i cant see it
    can someone help?

  12. Marce says:

    I doubt its that kind of “love scene” I mean I heard or read somewhere that Stephenie specifically said that the rating for the movie needs to be PG13…Plus that’s a big issue in the book and I think they can’t just overlook that….

  13. Guen says:

    It won’t play for me either. Pleeeeeeeeez put it on youtube, someone!

  14. Jenny says:

    Can I just say that I love Catherine Hardwicke. She really knows Bella, and Edward, and this book!

  15. Rima says:

  16. Fatimeh says:

    it sounds so funny the way he puts it, and its completely true.
    hahahaha and then he insults himself.

  17. Sara Marie says:

    Ah!! I love it!!! Edward….*swoon*

  18. jenn says:

    Edward isn’t quite 180… he was only born in 1901 ;)

  22. lala-swan says:

    man, they seem to get Twilight so good! Catherine is the best director they could have ever chosen, I love the way she works! And Robert, he was so Edward-ish when he said that he that their love ruined both of their lifes, but in a romantic way; god, could he get to be more perfect? I don’t think so!
    This little videos just make my heart flutter, and get so excited about the movie!! Yay :D !

  23. Venice says:

    wait…kristen and robert in catherine’s bedroom?
    wow. haha. x]

  24. jovib1029 says:

    this is all awesome! i cant wait!

    i think rob did say 108 but with the accent it kinda sounds like 180…oh well he looks hot all the same ;)

  25. urcoolcarrie says:

    i can’t see it! the screen is coming up green!!! maybe its just my dumb computer…

  26. Edward*faints* says:

    EEEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EEP EEP EEP!! i wuv it i love this i love this I LOVE THIS!!! LOL!

  27. Giggles says:

    omG TWILIGHT is getting so much press, I’m so happy. I’m trying to get as much ppl as I can to read it as well, this book changed my life.

  28. daylet says:

    yes they messes up, from 108 to 180 is a big difference. Anyway did you see the close up of his eyes [I died].

    One thing I am iffy though:

    On “The Meadow” scene, Rob has his shirt on. In the book its opened to reveal his chest. Is that still going to be in the movie? I was looking forward to it.

  29. KayBay says:

    Haha! Catherine is so crazy. xP

  30. katie says:

    Thanks for setting us straight Cocoa. I too want they’re purity to stay intact. It makes their relationship so much more sensual and romatic…:)

  31. KayBay says:

    Daylet: I’ve been wondering about that too.
    I was more wondering if they were going to still make him sparkle? In the other video the meadow looked sort of shady. =/ Could have just been the camera lighting, though.

  32. dexy_dexa says:

    WOW!!! The close up on his eyes………. dazzle me edward cullen. dazzle me. The press on the movie is finally taking off!! Gosh! I’m so happy now!! Thanks again guys!!!

  33. katie says:

    If I could spell it might help….their and romantic….DUH!

  34. Nora says:

    AH what i wouldnt give to be that piece of gum……

    i love around like 1:40 when he takes his gum out and sticks it to a piece of (notebook?) paper hahaha…

    oh and i think he is wearing the cullen crest on an armband bracelet thing like emmett!

  35. Sally says:

    I find it amusing that almost everyone is freaking out over Edward’s age instead of how gorgeous Rob is.

  36. Arianne says:

    HOW INTENSE WAS THAT?
    his eyes!
    CRAP?

    i think i’m in love -_-

  37. katie says:

    LOL…Sally you’re right!! He’s beyond gorgeous, dontcha think?

  38. Saiyachick says:

    I believe the ‘love scene’ refers to the moments where Edward is laying in bed with Bella. Those moments (especially the very early ones) made my heart stutter at the beauty of such an innocent scene. The part I hope (and really do pray) to see is the morning after where Edward mentions that Bella spoke in her sleep again. His eyes softened as he told Bella that she said she loved him. “You are my life.” And that line always gets me.

  39. Kelsey says:

    why is the movie dark? i can only hear their voices….

    am i supposed to not see anything?

  40. TeamRobert! says:

    Kelsey,
    mine’s screwed up too, but I can see bits of pictures and hear the sound.
    Can someone please post it on YouTube?

  41. Silien says:

    180?! ahem… not even close!

  42. Mary Alice Cullen says:

    I screamed when I saw his beutiful eyes. I wish i was in bella’s shoes and she those eyes and be next to him. :)

  43. Nadiya says:

    I was wondering what angle they would shoot the biology scence from so it would look good and i was a little worried, but as usual its perfect! Poor unfit Robert HeHe

  44. Katie says:

    OMG!!!!!! OMGGGGG!!!…no…OMABCE4J2MTR!!!!(oh my Alice Bella Carlisle Emmett Edward Esme Eric Jacob Jasper Mike Tyler Rosalie)

    AAAAWWWWEEEESSSSSOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMEEEEEEE

    I adore Robert for Edward…he’s perfect for Edward…not most of you think that…but they looked kinda WEIRD! his lips were WAAAY too dark! other than that…almost perfect…but yeah, vamps are pale and stuffs…haha

  45. Rebecca says:

    Woo,
    more footage!
    Keeps getting more exciting!
    XD
    and i think he said 108

  46. Isabella-Swann-Cullen says:

    It won’t load for me :( Could someone post it on youtube?

  47. anphelps says:

    Great video, and great article! Except she typed out his quote wrong haha. I think she meant “108″ in the article haha. Great nonetheless :)

  48. alex says:

    Cool vid!!

  49. rebelangel says:

    did anybody read the article?? its so funny what robert says at the end:
    “I’m atrociously unfit,” he said. “Every tiny little stunt takes it out of me. I think I pulled my hamstring on the first stunt of the first day just trying to pick Bella up and she weighs about 100 pounds.”

  50. Jess says:

    Okay…OMFGOMFGOMFG!!! I just screamed and pooped a brick! HOLY DUMP! Robert is totally delicious as edward ( but rob was already sexy so w/e) Love scene? HMM>…. that sounds wrong about the bed *cringes* oh well, at least we know they’ll do a good job as edward and bella.
    NOTE TO HATERS:
    so i’ve been getting pm’s on my youtube that are from rob haters, and this video about the love scene just made it start to pore in. What rob does ( or in this case, who rob does!) is none of our buisness. He’ll be a fantastic edward hands down.
