Our friend Jed at tMF has launched part four of his series today.  It’s a must read Twilight fans.  This reporter is a true fan of these books.  Jed is also calling out to all Twilight-guys in the sound of this server, and making a few comments on the newly released trailer.  Check it out.

On another note, nothing regarding the international release date for the film has changed since we reported it here.  Anything to the contrary is a rumor.  We will let you know just as soon as dates are finalized.  But do not expect a date until late summer.

Larry has posted a blog about the trailer.  Go check out the play by play!  Make sure to comment and tell them what you think. 

Don’t Forget!!!

Talk about the trailer over on the message boards. 

MTV’s, now famous, Twilight Tuesday will also be something much anticipated!  (Just not the trailer.)  We promise you, they will not disappoint!  They never do.  So tune in tomorrow for the latest installment of Twilight Tuesday!

Also new.  On Greetings From Twilight they have added a picture of shooting to the last entry.

*Clearing up confusion:  The official Twilight movie site has added a place holder for the trailer.  There is not an additional trailer going up in three days.  That is a place holder for when the site goes live with the trailer in three days.  Expect more extensive trailers later this summer going into fall.

Lengthy emails from fans
Excited for any type of

Nothing in life that’s a total guarantee, but

Viewers will be very satisfied.

Read between the lines!

*EDIT: New Information coming.  Stay Tuned!!!!

Taylor Lautner, who plays Jacob in the Twilight movie, updated his MySpace to say hi to Twilight Fans.

Stephenie is in the May 12th edition of Time magazine page 100 in an article on the 100 newsmakers.

This just in from Little Phoenix  who met Justin at the Director’s Guild building. Unfortunately, due to building regulations, there are no photos.

I arrived at the Director’s Guild building at 3:30, I got there, I sort of wandered, looking for him for about 10 minutes until I finally asked a guy who was on the staff and doing interview work, he went into the theater (where they were showing some film) and looked for him, then went out, got me in, and in about a few seconds of entering the theater I got to sit down and talk with Justin and his publicist (in spite of not having a ticket to the film of which they were showing, I thank the helpful staff member for getting me in). I’m friends with a good friend of Justin’s, and told them I knew Ben (the friend) and we all sat down and started talking for 20 minutes (just in case anyone wants to know, they are extremely interesting and nice people). I told them I was a huge fan of Twilight and wrote a screenplay for the book, and they were pretty interested in that. Justin asked me about my version of Eric in the script, which went something along the lines of this:
 
Justin: So, how did you write Eric’s part in your script?
Me: Um, like it was in the book…*distresses over Eric’s relatively minor role*
Justin: Nonexistent?
Me: Sort of…
 
He was fine with it, he just sort of laughed about it. We continued to talk about scripts, the film, Catherine Hardwicke, the fan base (his publicist, Anthony Turk, said it was a "crazy fanbase", which he was blown away by), and all the hype surrounding the movie. I told them I got Justin’s announcement on the Lexicon, and they were very pleased about that part. It was, in total, a very great experience to meet one of the cast members of Twilight.
 

Our friend Jed at tMF is back to good health and ready to continue his in depth reporting of Twilight!  Look for, not only, the fourth installment of his series to be out soon but also exciting fun articles that spotlight The Twilight Guy as well as the supporting characters from the series!  We are glad you are back in good health Jed!

Visit the Twilight Guy to read his hilarious chapter by chapter commertary from a guys perspective.

From Jed at tMF:

Hi everyone! Special thanks to the Lexicon admins for the support.

Yes, finally ready to finish our first Twilight Saga series. I really enjoyed the books, and why, I’m having my 2nd reading of Twilight, would you believe it?

The Twilight Guy and myself have been talking about his guest blogging at tMF, and it seems he’s getting ready for the ‘confession’, as we called it.

We also want to make tMF a site where fans can really have a voice, as everyone here @the Lexicon enjoys regularly, and with gusto!

December maybe months away, but so you know, the fandom has many ways to kill time and enjoy the waiting still.

Cheers!
Jed
