Breaking Dawn Part 2 Voted Second Most Anticipated Film of 2012

December 29, 2011

It’s the end of the year and lists are coming out all over the place for all sorts of different things from what fans liked this year and are looking forward to in 2012. Next Movie had several polls going that the Twilight Saga was in the running for. Bella and Edward were given second place after Ron and Hermione for best on screen couple. Breaking Dawn Part 2 came in second to The Hunger Games for most anticipated movie of 2012. But the two hottest dudes of 2011 were Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner, taking in 95% of the votes between the them!

But take a very close look at the numbers for most of these results. The difference between first and second place is always marginal. Then third place is usually a single digit number. Any way you slice it, fans that vote for on line things love Twilight… and they also love Harry Potter and Hunger Games. Are we surprised?

See the whole list at Next Movie. Leave us a comment on your thoughts about how the voting went.

Happy Birthday Laura!

December 29, 2011

If you enjoy the Lexicon and look forward to the news every day, then you should take a moment to wish Laura a very happy birthday! She has gone through more Google alerts than anyone can count just to find legitimate and interesting stories for the site. If you didn’t know, Laura and I met because of our mutual love for Remus Lupin. She only read Twilight after I begged and begged her to and she was too sick and off work with nothing better to do! Now here we are almost six years later and she’s the one who looks for the best Twilight news every morning! So have a great birthday, Laura! And if you have a twitter account, you’ll want to tweet out a happy birthday to @Laura_BC since Laura is the twitter queen around here!

Many thanks to OpenHome for the birthday card!

Ryan McKee, AKA The Male TwiHard, has a countdown of his top experiences as a male TwiHard this year. We like number one. It’s not often that a guy gives props to the fansite operators as fans who are passionate, but not frothing at the mouth sparkle crazy 24/7.

1. Meeting Other ‘Twilight’ Bloggers

The entire Twilight Convention is my biggest “Twilight” highlight of the year, but meeting other bloggers and realizing they’re also not the geeky shut-ins that people think we all are is my most comforting moment of the year. Thanks to Letters to Twilight and Elle of Twilightish for supporting me in the costume contest. Also, Laura Byrne-Cristiano of Twilight Lexicon for posting the video. Big props to Kandi Prickett of Salt Lake City Twilight Fans for taking photos, as well as discussing Major League Soccer with me and for having the coolest tattoo I’ve seen all year: Pug Jack Sparrow.

Get the full list here.

Here’s to what the Male TwiHard bring next year. And in tribute we have the video of Ryan entering the costume contest. Love ya, Ryan!

Kristen Stewart in Breaking Dawn Makes Allure’s 2011 Movie List

December 27, 2011

Allure Magazine has come up with their list of best movie beauty looks for 2011. It ranges from Kristen to to Rooney Mara in The Girl With a Dragon Tattoo.

This year, leading actresses took to the big screen with looks that ran the gamut from the perfect wedding makeup to a wig that looked too good to be, well, fake. Here, our picks for the six hair and makeup looks that mesmerized us at the movies this year.

Kristen Stewart in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (Part 1). The usually bare-faced Bella Swan (Stewart) showed off her most done look yet when she walked down the aisle to marry her vamp love, Edward (played by Robert Pattinson). Stewart wore shimmery honey brown eyes, lots of lashes, and glossy peach lips. Her hair—a braided low do under a bejeweled veil—added a romantic finishing touch.

Check out the entire list here on Allure.

Taylor Lautner Talks About Fans Following Him

December 27, 2011

Taylor Lautner is now doing PR for the Abduction DVD release on January 7. Here’s what he had to say about fans:

Jason Isaacs said the hardcore fans were camped out on the set every day to get a glimpse of you in the car…

“There was a lot of fans on set. I think probably the highlight, we were actually there for a week. We were filming in a random city called Sutterville and there was a population of six hundred people and one night we had over eight hundred girls on set. So, there was definitely a few people driving in from different cities. It was pretty impressive. There were some great fans there in Sutterville.”

How do you handle that? You can’t talk to all of them.

“I found a way to. It was tiring because we were actually filming nights there. So, you show up at 8PM and work until 5AM. At 5AM I would go out and there would literally be eight hundred people down the street. I would go out and pretty much take pictures with all of them. It took about an hour and we tried to do it fast. Doing it fast for eight hundred people was still an hour. But it was important to me.”

Any crazy fan encounters?

“No, nothing crazy. I think that I had like three hundred people in my front lawn at one point, but that was about it.”

That’s not crazy at all.

(Laughs) “They were behaved fans though.”
