Taylor Lautner in GQ
Taylor Lautner will be on the cover of GQ for the June 22 issue. The interview covers Taylor’s thoughts on the fandom and fame as well as what it was like for him to have to re-audition for the role for New Moon.
“I’m in the gym, and I’m doing reps, and I’m reading the books, and I’m studying the character. I’m just saying to myself, ‘I want this role. I love this role. I’m not gonna lose it. And I’m gonna know it better than anybody, and I’m gonna do that extra
rep, because I’m gonna be Jacob Black.’ ”
He even talks about presenting with Kristen Stewart at the Oscars.
“I would have passed out if she wasn’t there!” Lautner says. “You’re looking down and you’re talking to George Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio—and they’re listening to you!”

Keep in mind this is all hypothetical. There is no spin-off planned.
IESB: Press Conference, The Cullen Family Interview
IESB covered the Eclipse press conference and has transcribed the Cullen family interview. This is the best Cullen family coverage to date!:
“At a press conference to promote the upcoming release of the film, co-stars Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, Nikki Reed, Ashley Greene and Jackson Rathbone talked about what gets them into character and why Eclipse is the most accessible of the Twilight films so far.
Q: For someone who hasn’t been a fan of the series, why would you recommend that someone should see this movie?
Nikki: I think it deals with universal topics, and not only this really intense, “I would do anything, and literally die for you,” kind of love that we’ve all felt, at one point or another. With this film in particular, you get to learn a little bit more about some of the characters, like Rosalie and Jasper. When you’re dealing with a screenplay, you really have to focus on what’s important, which is the love triangle. The rest of us feel like we’re screaming and clawing to show something.
Peter: I think that there’s a misconception with Twilight that it’s just for pre-teen and teenage girls, and that guys won’t want to go see it. When New Moon came out, it had more action and guys responded to that, although they didn’t really want to admit it. It’s like driving around, singing and listening to Barry Manilow in your car, belting it out loud, and then someone pulls up next to you and you pretend like you’re not. Now, with Eclipse, the action has gotten even greater. For me, as a male, it’s my favorite book because I love the all the action, yet you still have this love triangle that’s heated up even more. It hits on a lot of different things. It has themes of vengeance, which is universal. You have themes of alliances being formed between two different families, or mortal enemies that are teaming up for a common good, which is a great universal message. This has a family that you can relate to, in the sense that they’re bonded and joined up for a common good, with the action and the love story. It’s got a lot of things going on for a lot of different people. I’ve had fans that are six years old, up to 80. I’m hoping that they enjoy it. It’s my favorite book, and I enjoyed it.”

Fans Get to See Eclipse and Get a Surprise Visit and Eclipse Review
Last night visitors to Twilight fansites got to see a preview of Eclipse right across from where the cast was taping the Jimmy Kimmel show. Well, here’s what happened according to some of the Lexicon’s representatives:
Pam’s reaction:
“Thank you soooo much!!! We had Dakota, Peter, Elizabeth and I think Xavier in person show up at the theater.
Rob, Kristen and Taylor were on a live feed at the Jimmy Kimmel show (which is across the street from the Chinese 6). Someone shouted, “Rob come here” and he repeated it so they heard us!!! We were about 15 minutes or so into the movie when the screen went blank… and they said there was some difficulties and them Jimmy K. shows on our screen. That’s when they introduced R, K and T…. then the others came out in front of the audience.
Thanks again for a very memorable night!!!! Can’t wait to see this movie again and again!!!”
“It was great; you’re going to love it!! Thanks SO much @twilightlexicon for the opportunity to see Eclipse tonight. *HUGS* @DAVID_A_SLADE You are a genius, sir. I bow to you!!! Thank you for making such an AMAZING film. XO.”
After the cast visit and the shout out from the Kimmel show fans from various fansites and their webmasters got to see the movie. Alphie gave her review of Eclipse about two weeks ago, which the rest of the admin team agrees with. We got to see the movie on Friday in IMAX. Here’s what other fans had to say coming out of the show (done under the cut to save people who are trying to be spoiler free) [Read more…]
