MTV has come through with another Twilight Tuesday for us to read and ponder. This one is about the potential for sequels. We need to stress that as of today there is no contract for any of the sequels to be filmed. We will let you know as soon as we hear anything official on that front. A quote from the article states:
It’s been discussed,” producer Greg Mooradian revealed to MTV News recently. “I can’t tell you we’re at that place yet, but it’s definitely been discussed.”
The question at the end that Larry asks us to respond to is:
Would you like to see the sequels filmed at the same time, or would you rather have everyone take a few years off to catch their breath in-between movies?
EDITED: They also have a great article on Carlisle, Peter Facinelli, and his Mercedes.
Go make your thoughts known and remember to tell them you heard about it from the Lexicon!
We also have an article from an Australian source about the environment while shooting the Twilight film with one of the funniest headlines I’ve seen in a long time! Go check it out!
FIRST!!
I LOVE TWILIGHT =] =]
Cool. Cool. Cool. A sequal would be awesome and if we go and watch it like maniacs….who knows?!?!
About the other article…I didn’t feel “hot and bothered” watching the teaser. Weird that they thought we would. But I’m looking forward to the steamy action on screen. Whooo hooo!!!
wooooooooooooooooohooo
SWEEETTT!!! I
I like the idea of shooting simultaneously. It would really help with the illusion of vampires not aging. Wow, I hope that we can pull out record numbers to watch twilight. I’m going as many times as I can possibly go the weekend it comes out!
i dont know if i would like to see the sequels filmed at the same time.. i mean i would like it but is going to be alot of work for the actors and crew.. OMG
this is big!
and its getting bigger and bigger and biggeeeeeer!
I want sequels. If they don’t make sequels I’m gonna cry
But I think it’s a great idea… the filming thingy:P
PS. I’m addicted to Twilight Tuesday!:D
Oh, my whole post didn’t show.
Well, I was going to saw that Twilight Tuesdays, MTV, and Larry totally make my week. ^^
And that I’d like sequels (of course). And that I’d like them filmed together… because a) the actors won’t waste their time like, on multiple projects that take time… (poor Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint, stuck on Harry Potter for nearly 10 years…), b) we wouldn’t have to wait in between movies!! Less suspense and waiting. Even though releases are fun, who wants to wait?? c) the actors won’t get older. Even though they won’t change that much, Edward and Bella and everyone in Twilight changes even less, and so to keep it accurate, they’d have to stay around the same age…
okay, that’s it for my insight! Have a great day everyone!
Je ne comprends pas le fonctionnement de ton organisme
Et je ne comprend pas commment après avoir passé des heures à observer
J’aime bien les méchants quand même, dans les films ce sont les plus beaux.
So… on that Australian movie poster that is next to the article, is says November 12, 2008… are they getting the movie a month before us???
~~~~ I doubt it. I bet that was a misprint but we will look into it.
Alphie
hahahaha
I totally think that it would be great to film them simultaneously to keep the flow of the characters plus it would not tie the actors down for so many years to one franchise. On the downside – goodness the work! But truly if they punch them all out then they can just enjoy the success even more quickly
:):):):) lol. I sure hope they get to anyway! Yay for Twilight Tuesdays!
okayy so i realllyy dont get everyone who says film simultaneusly… how are they supposed to get into the feel of each movie? New Moon and Eclipse are so different..
and anyway, the whole excitement will go away and itll be over too fast. thing pirates of the caribbean, that was a disaster.
Copy/Paste from what I wrote over on the MTV Blog:
Given the time frame that the two books, ‘New Moon’ and ‘Eclipse,’ cover it makes sense to film back to back, while giving a year or so between releases. Since we don’t know yet how ‘Breaking Dawn’ is going to play out, it may still be a good idea to film that one at the same time too.
That is of course *if* sequels are authorized.
Hahaha. I love the headline of the Australian article. Brilliant.
Awesome! Did you guys see the other article about Carlisle, Peter Facinelli, and his car? There’s a video too, and yeah, it rocks! I really hope that they negotiate this fast and start filming again soon!
New Moon is going to be HARD to make into a movie. She takes the Cullens out for 3/4 of the book.
this was posted on mtv today as well:

I CAN SEE HOW IT WOULD MAKE SENSE TO FILM ALL THE MOVIES RIGHT AFTER THE OTHER SINCE THE VAMPIRES ARE NOT SUPPOSE TO AGE,BUT THAT IS ALOT OF WORK,
I MOSTLY JUST WANT THE ACTORS TO DO WHAT THEY CAN HANDLE AND IF THEY FEEL THEY NEED TO TAKE A BREAK THAN THEY SHOULD.
I DEFINANTLY WOULD LIKE THE REST OF THE MOVIES TO BE MADE OF COURSE THOUGH BECAUSE IT JUST WOULDNT SEEM THE SAME TO ME CAUSE JUST TWILIGHT DOESNT TELL THE WHOLE STORY OF EDWARD AND BELLA! THERE IS SOOO MANY MORE INTERESTING THINGS THA HAPPEN!
PLUS! WHO DOESNT WANT TO SEE WERWOLVS/INDIANS AND JASPER TRAINING FOR THE BATTLE
AND I ESPECIALLY AM DYING TO SEE THE FIGHT BETWEEN VICTORIA AND EDWARD!!!!
PLEAE GIVE THE RIGHTS TO MAKE TH REST OF THE MOVIES!
sweet sweet. i definitely think they should to the movies back to back. im so excited for these films!!! ahhh! im dying to see them!!!
someone post the carlisle interviwe on youtube
i love twilight tuesdays!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBERT!
we all love youuuu:]
They totally should make the next two or three movies back to back. I mean, Rob just turned 22 and his supposed to be 17! and Kisten and them lot too. But I bet it’ll be harder for them. Being away from family for all that time! Can’t wait for New Moon to come out!
Filming sequels simultaneously is all the rage these days… they have some time before Rob ages visibly but the clock is ticking!
One thing to consider is that Edward and the Cullens have a rather reduced role in “New Moon”. The simultaneous filming would be hardest on Kristen Stewart and to a lesser extent Taylor Lautner.
I love the article on Carlisle! Awesome, I cannot wait to see more about all the other cars & their characters!
is the link on you tube up yet for carlisle???
the host playlist is up now on steph’s website
has anyone post the carlisle vid on youtube yet?
i want to see it!!!!
I love how they use a fan made poster in the AUS article
Someone please post the carlisle video on youtube!!
Sumbody plz plz plz post this video on youtube..plz plz!!
=[
Can somebody please post the link of the Carlise video on youtube?
Im in the UK and can’t view it *sad face* =[
What’s all this about an Aussie article? And guys I have been looking for ages, nobody has put up the Carlisle interview as yet so if you want to be the first hurry up. For the sake of us international fans!
Also, everyone in the UK buy the Times because there’s a great double spread about Twilight, Stephenie Meyer and how Harry Potter ties in…which is not really
I have a question that I don’t think others have considered yet.
If, say, New Moon and Eclipse were filmed together, what would the MOVIE TITLE be? New Eclipse?
that could potentially be a problem.
no ppl, they want to shoot both movies at the same time, they won’t be merged together!……… any way after the movie , right before the credits there should be a shout out stephenie meyer. i mean she is the one who created the books!
oh BTW: happy birthday rob!!
Melissa to answer your question, even if they film the two movies at the same time the movies will still be released as two separate movies. We will still have both New Moon and Eclipse. They would just film be filming scenes from both movies over the same time period so that the actors don’t age and they don’t have to take down sets, etc.
melissa:
I don’t think they’re going to be made as one, or even released at the same time. They’re just going to be FILMED at the same time, so that our vampires don’t get older. At least that’s what I got from the article.
Stephenie updated her blog.
please put it on youtube!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
youtube people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I SAY THEY HAVE THE SEQUEL THE DAY AFTER THE TWILIGHT MOVIE!!
After the trailer and movie poster, this Twilight Tuesday was kind of a let down……
I don’t get what’s happening. Are they trying to merge the two movies together or just shoot it right after one another?
is it coming out in novemeber in australia?? cos that would be awesome cos im in australia then!!!! and please youtube carlise! xxx
I’d like to see Twilight first and then decide if there should be a sequel. Steph’s smart in not signing all of her books at once.
Great article on Peter/Carlisle. I just wished they didn’t spoil Rosalie’s story for those who haven’t read Eclipse yet.
um……is that the movie poster for Australia??? i love it and it’s headline “Evil is a choice”….that’s hot. but….they get the movie november 12?????? a month before us?????
( 
( sad.
is that true? does anyone know?
Shoot em’ all quickly. i want to see them all!!!!!!!!! plus the actors have to stay looking young.
Yeah, I’m wondering about what Danielle said.
Australia gets to see it a month before us?
That’s totally not fair.
OMGKT: No, no one gets to see it before us. (I hope). Because it said that they were getting their movies sometime next year.
Anyways: HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROB!! Hurry up the shooting before you get too old to play edward (JK. lol). Hmmmm…… shooting them back to back, I need to validate the pro’s and con’s about that to actually figure out if that’s what i want. But, obviously , it would be a lot easier, and we would soo get our movies earlier. yay!!
i wouldnt mind if they combined new moon and elipse into one movie. i kind of wonder if new moon would be interesting as a movie by itself, and they could always shoot breaking dawn as the third movie, whatever it may be.
