The Movie Fanatic also continues their Twilight Series coverage. The interviewed the admins from His Golden Eyes, Twilight Moms, a fan, and Alphie and me.

It’s great to see a site caring enough to get more than just a scratch the surface story!

The Movie Fanatic site has also done a feature on actors making waves, and of no surprise to Twilight fans, Rob Pattinson is listed among them.

Edited: I think we may have just killed tMF’s server.  Sorry Jed!

MSN, who hopefully judging by the fan commentary, no doubt realizes that Stephenie’s last name is Meyer and not Miller, has posted some additional Twilight movie items.

Thanks to numerous people for emailing in.

Mr. Twi-hard himself, Mike Welch, has updated his MySpace blog.

We look forward to other goodies from Mike in the near future!

We recently announced that the Twilight Lexicon had entered into a partnership with Borders. First Borders brought you midnight release parties. Next, they wanted to know what you wanted to see happen at those parties. Now…drum roll please…

Borders has allowed The Twilight Lexicon to debut almost 30 minutes of 4 exclusive video interview segments with Stephenie Meyer. Set against the backdrop of the Arizona desert, Stephenie talks about The Host (mild spoilers), what it means to be human, her fans, the upcoming Twilight movie, and Breaking Dawn.  These videos have been exclusively given to the Lexicon.  We welcome any other website to link to this post. 

Thanks again to Borders for allowing The Twilight Lexicon to debut this footage which will later be distributed to Borders members. We can’t wait to see what other things Borders has in store for us in the months to come.

You can discuss the video on our message boards here.

Also don’t forget to check out great sites started by Lexiconers  The Host Index and The Host Library.

Because the other mods who are in Portland sent me photos, called me several times, and are having fun without me (sadly I can’t get the time off from work) I decided to make a little video of their escapades so far. They may regret having sent the person known for making April Fools videos their photos.

In order of appearance: Alphie (video cam), Cocoa (on phone), Ambereyes (behind computer)

It is our pleasure to announce that the Twilight Lexicon admin team was invited by Summit Entertainment to the set of Twilight the Motion Picture. We will be there shortly and hope to start sharing information with all of you as soon as possible.  Stay tuned to the Lexicon in the coming weeks and months for the complete on set experience, including many other surprises.

Barnes & Noble has released an interview with Stephenie about The Host. Check it out here.

The ladies over at Devilish Trio have cooked up something special to celebrate Robert Pattinson’s 22nd birthday.

"The Devilish Trio, have decided to send Robert a small gift package for his 22nd birthday. We want to get as many fans as possible to submit us their videos of their birthday shout outs to Robert and then send it to him with the gift package. We have made a video on our Devilish Trio YouTube Channel with all the information of how to contact us and more on the gift."
 

Stephenie updated her MySpace today.  She references a site where there is what is a called a "flame war" going on between supporters and non-supporters of Twilight. 

"...in regards to the flame war over at slashfilm.com:

I thought the article was fascinating (I fear math; consequently statistics impress me enormously). It was so cool to hear that Taylor Lautner was ranking higher in imdb interest than ANY OTHER ACTOR IN THE WORLD. Amazing. And also how popular all the other Twilight actors have been in recent search history.

The point is statistics, my friends! Numbers! (Don’t stare at them too long, though, or math-related thoughts might invade your head.)"*

As a side note from the Lexicon’s point of view, let’s keep it classy. You can support something, or disagree with something without trashing others.

Taylor Lautner’s MySpace was also updated. You can view it here.
