“I think of something Helen Mirren said at the Palm Springs Film Festival,” she says. “You’re only in the nomination bubble for a short period of time, and if you lose, the bubble bursts that night. If you win, it bursts 24 hours later. Either way, you go home, live your life and wake up the next day looking for work. That’s how I look at it.” source

Collider: Chris Weitz New Moon DVD Interview
Frosty from Collider interviewed Chris Weitz on the making of the New Moon DVD. Now Frosty had a different perspective from most in that he was able to get some early info from Chris back at Comic Con. Check out the interview, it shows how things evolve over time.
“With The Twilight Saga: New Moon hitting DVD and Blu-ray on March 20, I was able to talk with director Chris Weitz about the upcoming release. When the film was getting ready to hit theaters, I asked Chris Weitz about the eventual DVD release and he told me to expect a commentary from Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner and about ten minutes of deleted scenes. So when I got the specs of the DVD/Blu-ray and saw there was no commentary and no deleted scenes, I knew this would be the main topic of conversation. Also, I asked everyone on Twitter to send me questions and a ton of you asked me about the deleted scenes and commentary.
The way Weitz described it to me, the reason you’re not going to be able to hear Kristen, Rob and Taylor is due to time. When they were recording the commentary, for whatever reason, they couldn’t fit it into the schedule. I know it sucks for fans that were looking forward to it…but the DVD is due around the time the movie is getting released and that last month is very rough on everyone.”
Check out Chris’ answers to what happened to the actor commentary and where missing scenes may be on Collider.

Indonesian Twilighters/Twilight Nusantara Support Local Orphanage
We tend to hear a lot about the outreach of Twilight fans in the USA and Canada. Well, helping others knows no geographic boundaries as these Indonesian Twilighters wrote in to tell us.
“Twihards just wanna share with you. I’m one of Twimoms (remember the Rob cookies?) and few members of Indonesian twilighters/Twilight Nusantara (http://twitter.Twilight_Nusa) went to foster home for toddler called Tunas Bangsa. This is one of our twilight agendas besides gathering & any other our twi-related activities. We’ve managed to donate some money and brought needs for them such as: milk, baby clothes, blanket, toys, pampers. The orphans consist of 60 toddlers from newborn to 5 years old. The orphanage has 3 separate rooms for: newborn, baby & toddler. I can’t tell how the kids were so excited when they got all these toys & goody bags. Hopefully, our little help can brighter their days & make them smile. We should be thankful for our life coz not everybody have a home like us or our kids 😀 More pics : http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=124225&id=728897705“
MTV: 5 Secrets of New Moon
MTV interviewed Chris Weitz by phone for the New Moon DVD release. You can see part of the interview below. Please be advised that the video on the same page was shot several months prior to the DVD commentary track being recorded and the the information in there is not current!
“Our Lord?: In its Italian-set portions, “New Moon” features a significant amount of religious iconography, and Edward certainly suffers a great deal. Is he supposed to be a Christ figure?
“I think that he is in a sense he’s doomed to suffer eternally,” Weitz said. “He actually thinks of himself as a damned figure, but he’s wrong about that. So in some senses, yeah, he is a martyr figure.”
Black Eyes: In Stephenie Meyer’s book, Edward’s eyes go black in Italy. Why don’t his eyes turn in the film?
“It’s because I screwed up!” Weitz admitted.
Really? He just forgot?
“Well, yeah, I kinda did,” he said. “Well, there are two reasons. One is that I messed up. The other reason is that I actually thought that onscreen it would be quite bizarre to see his eyes go completely black, and that it would be more satisfying and less jarring to have that moment of reunion be a reunion with revivified Edward. But probably, the long and the short of it, there are many details that I did not drop the ball on, and there are some that I did.”
Mike Welch, Peter Facinelli, and Karaoke
Pel writing here. I have to say I never thought I’d be writing a title like the above. Anyway, after I came home from going out to dinner last night I find all these tweets about Alphie (Lori) singing Summer Nights from Grease with Mike Welch. My first thought was “surely I read that wrong” and my second thought was “tell me there is video, this I have to see.” So, Lori is probably going to kill me for doing this, but she’s in Atlanta and I’m a thousand miles away so what the heck 🙂
So apparently Creation Entertainment responded to fan request and now Karaoke With the Stars is part of their programming at a variety of their Conventions.
A HUGE thank you to Heidi from Twilight Facebook who I believe shot the video.
Madame Tussauds To Unveil Wax Robert Pattinson in NYC and London
This just in from The Madame Tussauds PR Team
“Madame Tussauds New York today released photos of a clay head mold of Hollywood heartthrob Robert Pattinson (or R-Pattz, as his loyal legion of admirers call him). The famed Times Square wax attraction also announced that Pattinson’s completed figure will be unveiled on March 25, 2010, and that R-Pattz’s biggest fans will be invited to be part of the debut event.
The clay head mold represents a crucial step in the up to six month-long figure creation process. A team of studio artists at Madame Tussauds have been studying hundreds of photos and pouring through hours of video to ensure that they capture R-Pattz’s trademark sultry expression and inimitable style. The artists are also working double-time to create not one, but two wax likenesses of Pattinson – one for Madame Tussauds New York and one for Madame Tussauds London.
“Since the release of Twilight, we have been inundated with requests for a figure of Robert Pattinson and are thrilled that in just a few weeks, his figure will officially be part of Madame Tussauds New York. It comes at the perfect time with his next film, Remember Me, expected to light up the box office throughout the month of March,” said Janine DiGioacchino, General Manager of Madame Tussauds New York and Washington D.C.
When Pattinson’s figure is unveiled on March 25, the Twilight star will join the likes of Hollywood leading men Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Daniel Craig, Johnny Depp, George Clooney, Will Smith and Sean “Diddy” Combs – all of whom have been immortalized in wax by Madame Tussauds New York. Visitors will be able to cozy up with Pattinson’s figure for a photo or even a hug.
Fans who wish to attend the launch of Pattinson’s figure at Madame Tussauds New York should visit www.nycwax.com beginning March 11 for details about how to be part of the R-Pattz fandemonium.“
