A Twilight Saga Fansite
We just got this email from a Lexiconer. She and a workmate have this self-described “Simon and Garfunkel” thing going about creating off beat projects. So, they are doing the Twilight Saga in stick figure storyboards.
Right now they have Twilight and New Moon done, and they have future plans for other books. Go and check out their work.
One of the most quoted lines of the Twilight movie is the “Hold on tight spider monkey.” delivered by Robert Pattinson just before he and Kristen Stewart take off into the trees. As die hard Twilight fans realize, that line was not in the book. So, did screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg pen that particular piece of dialogue? The answer is “no”.
Catherine Hardwicke tells MTV, ”
“I woke up in the middle of the night. I thought, ‘They’re going to be climbing that tree, and they’re not going to have anything to say. It’s just going to be another scene of them looking into each other’s eyes.’ ”
Unfortunately, the Writers’ Strike had begun, and “Twilight” screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg was no longer available to provide dialogue. “So I typed up, like, 10 ideas,” Hardwicke recalled. “And thought, “OK, maybe they could say this …’ “
Peter Facinelli and his wife Jennie Garth are good friends of talk show host Chelsea Handler. We think (unless we missed one) this marks Peter’s 3rd appearance on Chelsea’s show.

Stephenie updated her website to include the following information (bolding and italics added by us):
“A quick fyi: I am taking down my bloated myspace page. It was a lot of fun while it lasted, and I really miss the early days when I could hang out with people online. Many of you are hilarious and insightful, and I wish it was easier for me to talk to everyone the way I used to.
With the myspace no longer in existence, I can now clearly state that—beside than this website—there is no other outlet where I communicate with people online. I do not have a facebook page, and I have never had one. I don’t do twitter. So if you’re communicating with someone online that you think is me, it’s not.
Hope you all are having a great summer so far! If you’re looking for some beach reading, you might try Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson and the Olympians series

Christina Raddish got some great pictures of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart actually holding their golden popcorn awards while Taylor Lautner looks on.
There’s also some additional footage of the other stars present on Jet Set Jen.
Allure magazine has solved the mystery of just what Kristen was shooting on the Santa Monica Pier yesterday.
“Yesterday we had a photo shoot with New Moon star Kristen Stewart outside on the Santa Monica Pier—and if you think she looks freaking amazing in these pictures (no surprise, makeup artist Dick Page and hairstylist Serge Normant were on hand), wait until you see the real thing. Our photographs, shot by Michael Thompson, will be on Allure‘s November cover…”
TY to Kaila.
We’ve had a ton of Tweets and emails, not to mention a request to advertise an online petition, concerning actor Tom Felton. Tom is mostly recognized for his role as Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies. It seems that he’s a popular fan favorite, and somehow the online discussion went from “he’d be great in this part” to “he’s been cast in this part”.
The Tom Felton fansite, Feltbeats.com, that Tom regularly communicates with, has been similarly bombarded. So, they asked Tom, and this is what he had to say:
“I’ll be ready when they want me! Really, I’m only joking. I’m not really sure at this point; but you will be the first to know if I find out anything!”
Tom later Tweeted “i keep getting asked if i’m being cast as Riley in Twilight! I’ll let you all know if so!!!”
Kristen Stewart, Nikki Reed, and Robert Pattinson signed an ottoman that was used as a celebrity seat at Vancouver’s Fashion Week. Their signatures joined those of other celebrities.
The Ottoman is now being auctioned off to raise money for the David Suzuki Foundation. The foundation is concerned with various environmental issues like global warming.
