Monday Morning News Catch Up

In light of the requests we have had in response to the Lexicon Movie Event in Tennessee, we have opened a Movie Gathering Forum for all of you to plan your release parties and meet up with other Lexicon members in your area.  Please do not post any personal information, like your name, in the forum. 

We still have a little over 70 tickets for the Lexicon Movie Event.  Contact us for information.

Official Lexicon Movie Event in Tennessee!

The Twilight Lexicon will be hosting a special exclusive showing of the Twilight Movie on Saturday morning Nov. 22, 2008 in Cool Springs, Tennessee at 10:30 am.  Tickets for the event are $10 and cover the cost of your admission to the film and a special goodie bag with assorted Twilight related items.  The concession stand will be open for food purchases.  Regular rules apply and no outside food will be allowed into the theatre. 

375 tickets will be available starting today on a first come first served basis.  In order to secure your seat at the showing, send an e-mail to [email protected] with your real name and the number of tickets you are requesting.   Once you have received a confirmation e-mail from the admin team that your seats are being reserved, you will then need to send a check or money order for the exact amount to cover the full cost of the tickets. You will be given further information on who to make the check out to and where to send payment in your confirmation email.  Once the seats have been filled, we will start a waiting list for those who are still interested. 

Alphie and Pel will be there along with some other well known Lexicon members including the ladies from Infinite Jewelry (who make Bella’s bracelet and engagement ring).  We will be having a drawing for a few special Twilight related items from the Lexicon store that everyone who comes will have a chance to win. 

We can’t wait to see you there!

UPDATE! There are still about 25 tickets left for the event.  If you have sent in a request by Tuesday Sept. 30, you should have received a confirmation.

And because so many of you are asking why this is being held in Tennessee, its because I live here!  I spent half of my summer in NYC.  Its Pel’s turn to come to me!  LOL!

Stephenie, how does your vision of Edward and Bella, and all the other characters, match with the actors who were cast in the movie?

Of course, I have a mental picture and, unfortunately, people can’t climb into my head and pull those out to use them. But, I’m actually amazed, particularly with Rob because Edward was a really hard one to cast.
