Blogger Lauren has written an essay in defense of Edward Cullen. She welcomes commentary.

Twilighters Anonymous has a video contest going. Check them out. Prizes include Breaking Dawn themed bookmarks and the book itself.

According to Lexiconer Rachel, Zune (Microsoft’s version of Ipod) has free video clips to download from comic-con. These include clips titled "meet the "twilight" actors," and "Hear from "Twilight" author, novelist, star."  You need to download the Zune software to get the clips.

  13. Team Twilight (formerly known as Twilighter) says:

    I love the article, Lauren! And people have to stop hating on Edward! He’s my fantasy boyfriend for god’s sake (and I think I speak for a lot of people when I say that)! Right on!

  14. Twi-Nique says:

    Awesome! I have a zune too and I’ve been waiting for some Twilight themed stuff to come into the marketplace. Can’t wait to download them. :D

  15. Andrea says:

    Rachel, where did you find those twilight videos in Zune’s marketplace. I can’t find them! Help me please!

  16. Roxie says:

    This was a great piece! I also wrote a lengthy piece on how Twilight ISN’T anti-feminist!

  18. saranicole says:

    Is anyone finding the Zune stuff? Is it somewhere (hidden) in the Comic-Con 2008 Season 1 Podcast Series?

  19. Jacob_BlackFan101 says:

    Andrea, go to the Marketplace. Click on Videos, and then you scroll down until you see top series and it is listed number 1.

    Hope it helps,

    I’m glad Lauren’s blog was featured. I’ve been a fan for a bit now and she deserves the attention. :-) She even inspired me to create my own Twilight blog.

  21. Maxie Rose says:

    I am very confused….I have a Zune, but I see nothing Twilight coming up aside from Twilight Series Theories Podcasts and in the Comic Con part, I don’t see anything Twilight…..?

  22. Haley Capris says:

    I downloaded the Zune software so I could watch the Comic-Con videos but I can’t seem to find them under Comic-Con or the titles you gave. Is there another way to find them?

  23. Becca says:

    Lauren,
    I have been wondering if someone was going to say something about all this Breaking Dawn and Edward hating.

    I loved Breaking Dawn it is my favourite Twilight book. This book has made me love Edward a hell of a lot more (and I didn’t think that was possible). I never hated Jacob before but I like him a little more now because I can understand him more. I also understand Rosaline now, and I like her a little more than I did. When Alice and Jasper left I was like they will be back. Alice cant leave like that. She wouldn’t. And I was right

    Stephenie Meyer writes the best book I have ever read. Her writing has inspired me to write myself. I have now finished my 3rd or 4th draft of my story now. Hopefully one day it will be good enough to send to an agent. At the minute my story is called Midnight Folly. So if you see it on a book shelve in a few years please pick it up.

  24. Maddy says:

    To those who need assistance in finding the Twilight videos on Zune:
    If you already have the Zune software on your computer, go to the Marketplace videos and click on “other” in TV genres. The comic-con picture will show up. Click on the picture and then click on the picture again when it shows up in the corner. The Twilight videos are numbers 31 and 34 on the list.
    And Lauren, nice work on the essay! I agree with everything you wrote! Edward forever…and beyond!

  25. jammylammy85 says:

    omg yes finally something for the Zune!!!!!!

  26. Mini says:

    Has anyone else heard that breaking dawn was released? I haven’t read it yet (it wouldn’t be right to stephenie) but it is curious how little anyone has said………

  27. rie23233323 says:

    ha i downloaded it watched the videos and uninstalled it thanks for letting us know which videos it was!

  28. Malice says:

    I agree, we didn’t get many moments where Edward got to show us his fatherly-ness, but that doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. – Lauren’s blog

    hmm well if it didn’t happen in the book, then it didn’t happen, period. The audience shouldn’t have to assume anything else if it was not written.

    Edward was not fatherly to his child. the end

  29. Sonya says:

    I just downloaded the Zune vids. It took FOREVER! But it was worth it.

  30. Elaine says:

    OME! I want those bookmarks!!!
    I agree with Lauren all the way. How could people think like that?!

  31. Zoya says:

    can music for a zune be transferred to an iPod?

  32. Katrina says:

    I loved the blog, and I’m team switzerland all the way! What is the deal with all the Edward and Jacob haters? The most awesomest part of the books is that we are not Bella, and we can love them both.

  33. Macy says:

    Holy frick this is awesome I cant believE I havent met you yet Lauren when your my cousins friend and a Twilight lover haha
