The Real Charlie Swan

July 1, 2009

One of the great things this past weekend at the Summer School in Forks Symposium was that we heard from the real-life citizens of Forks.  We talked to everyone from former and current students, business owners, high school staff, and of course the chief of police. So what is it like actually being the real police chief in Forks, Washington?


Real life Chief of Police Mike Powell explains it all. Later on when he was asked about the  representation in the movie he thought it was pretty acurrate and he thought that Billy Burke did a great job playing a chief of police. The only part he said wouldn’t have happened was that he would never have been cleaning a firearm while drinking Rainer beer as was the case with the movie.

Eclipse To Start Filming In August

July 1, 2009

Coming Soon is stating that Eclipse will begin filming August 17th in Vancouver and wrap on October 30th. Keep in mind that New Moon started ahead of its predicated dates and wrapped on time, so take the info as a loose guideline because these things change.

We would anticipate that the “tight wrap” kept on New Moon filming will continue with Eclipse. Like New Moon, a majority of the scenes (assuming they stick closely to the book) would be interiors or locations that are easily blocked from public view such as the much visited Bella’s and Jacob’s house locations.

Mike Welch Reelz Channel Interview

July 1, 2009

The Twilight Saga: New Moon Twilight The Twilight Saga: Eclipse The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn ReelzChannel Movie News | Movie Trailers

Mike Welch talks about potential Breaking Dawn timing being in February. Keep in mind we haven’t heard anything official on that, and that the Olympics are taking place in Vancouver at that exact time. It wouldn’t be the most ideal of times to film based on traffic alone (not to mention that every media person in town is probably working for the Olympics).

Bikini Dance Wrap Up

June 30, 2009

MTV was on hand to cover the Peter Facinelli bikini dance bet featuring Rob DeFranco. Peter remarked to MTV:

“Rob obviously lost the bet, and so here we are today,” grinned Facinelli, looking around at the good-sized crowd gathered on the street corner. “We tried to take this bet and make something positive out of it, so Affliction, the clothing store, got involved and sponsored the event, and they donated $10,000 to the Christopher Reeve Foundation in honor of my Twitter followers. I wanted to show that the power of unity, even for something this silly, can actually achieve something good … [Rob is doing] a bikini dance for everybody. I just hope we don’t scar anyone’s children.”

If you would like to donate to the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation, the information can be found here.
