RopeofSilicon Twilight beaten by G.I. Joe? Rope of Silicon explains.
"We’ve recently had a bunch of emails from people claiming they saw a news story in various places claiming that Stephenie said she is never finishing Dark High Noon.

It’s bad luck, if you say the novel title you may never see a completed version.)
From what we understand, the status of Dark High Noon has not changed since August. It’s a slow news week, folks, and we’ve been seeing a lot of rehash on tons of Twilight articles both movie and book related. You can see Stephenie’s statement on her website and a follow-up interview where she directly mentions her plans to EW. Things are no different than what is reflected on those two links!
There are some fabulous new photos of Jackson Rathbone that are on various sites today.
To be honest, we’re kind of boggling at the irony of this one. PETA has given the Twilight movie an award as being most friendly to animals.

Did they watch the same movie we did?
E! has some info on the New Moon soundtrack.
