YOU GUYS ARE SERIOUSLY MADE OF AWESOME!  THANK YOU GUYS!  WE TRULY ARE THE HOTTEST TWI-SITE OUT THERE! THANKS FOR MAKING OUR LITTLE CORNER OF THE INTERNET FABULOUS!

On Thursday night, I dragged my sister to the midnight showing of New Moon against her will and as it turns out, she loved it! So now, every few hours or so, she calls or texts with a question about one of the books and her BF tells me she's been reading my copies. She has come to the dark side whether it was for the cookies or the the thought of Edward shirtless, I dont know. But I love that I have converted one of my family members over to our Twi-verse. I can't wait 'til she's seasoned enough for me to introduce her to fanfiction...

So my questions to all you campers is: Have you converted any non-Twilighters over since New Moon?                               

LET US DISCUSS...

what would you like to see more and less of in twilight fanfiction?

From an Oregon Web site:

A good read, especially because it's funny.

I especially enjoyed his comments about being on set during the filming of "Twilight."  The bit about how much the script was rewritten, often at the last minute, confirms what I've always suspected, because so many of the scenes and dialogue were so choppy.

 so...i went a little crazy making some vids from the midnight release. most of them were on my cell and since my cell sucks and won't connect to my computer, yet again, i'm not able to load the good vids with the little interviews i did of random people.

but i figured i would share these ones that were recorded on my wifey's finance's camera. 

there were no crazies at my theater. in fact most people were kind of asshole-ish about being recorded and such. no one was in costume. 

warning : there is profanity in the vids. i'm slightly obnoxious. i was strung out on large mocha swirl iced lattes from dunkin donuts. i was also a little over excited because this was the first time i was out of the house w/o the kids since july. (yea i have no life. lol) i also didn't really know how to work chad's camera so i held it a little too close to my face and you can hear me breathing. (wow i'm really making you want to watch these, right?) and in one of them i signed up for the little hot topic discount card because the HT employees looked really bored. lol. 

anyways...enjoy. i'll post my pics in the comments. 

I am bored and since I listen to my ipod A LOT I associate a lot of songs with fics (only if they fit) because of the lyrics.

So, let's play a game.

Someone posts a song and you reply saying what fic you think it *suits*.

I'll put mine in a comment.

Here is the 1st promo poster, btw

What are you most looking forward to in Eclipse?

What scenes are a must?

I cannot wait to see the newborn fight scene. With the director from "30 Days of Nights" on board for this one, that fight should be intense.

Oh and what a post without eye candy...read what he wrote on the autograph

it says " You are welcome to my den of sin." *sigh*

ANEK, a band from italy that submitted a track for consideration of the NM soundtrack. Obviously it didn't make the cut.  However they have just released the music video for the song "Bella."  They were inspired to write it after reading New Moon.

I think it's pretty cool.

What do you think?

I found this article on Yahoo:

http://movies.yahoo.com/news/usmovies.thehollywoodreporter.com/new-moon-breaks-boxoffice-record

Here it is:

Summit Entertainment’s vampire-romance sequel “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” rung up a record $72.7 million in opening-day boxoffice on Friday, easily topping domestic rankings.

That bested a previous single-day boxoffice mark of $67.2 million, set by Warner Bros.’ Batman sequel “The Dark Knight” in July 2008.The first-day tally for “New Moon” included $26.3 million in boxoffice from a total 3,514 performances at12:01 a.m. Friday, which set a record for witching-hour coin.

Consensus pre-release forecasts put the likely first-weekend tally for “New Moon” at $85 million-plus. Not even a meteoric burnout on Saturday and Sunday would keep the largely female-fueled film from soaring well past those projections.

“Dark Knight” holds the record for the biggest opening ever, at $158.4 million. Whether “New Moon” – which is playing in more than 4,024 locations this weekend – will hold up well enough in its second and third days of release to approach that record is virtually unknowable, as the sequel is traveling into uncharted territory for the franchise.

The original “Twilight” – released a year ago this weekend – collected $36 million in its first day of release and $69.6 million in its first weekend. And that was considered a major over-performance at the time.

Elsewhere in the daily rankings, Warners’ Sandra Bullock-toplined drama “The Blind Side” debuted with $10.8 million, good for second place on the day. That’s a terrific start for the feel-good pigskin pic, which some thought would get blind-sided by “New Moon” and fail to rise above teen millions on the weekend.

Sony’s animated feature “Planet 51” landed in fifth place with a soft $3.2 million in first-day boxoffice. But the PG-rated pic should find a more lucrative orbit once Saturday and Sunday matinees kick in.

Sony’s scifi actioner “2012” -- which topped domestic rankings a week earlier – was third among all Friday grosses with $8.1 million. That gives the Roland Emmerich pic an $89.8 million cume through its first eight days in the marketplace.

Youu all may have seen it since I am slow to everything, but I though it was extremely funny.

I suck and can not get it to embed.

 Never mind I got it :) enjoy

WOW.  I just finished paying my winning auction bids from The Fandom Gives Back, and I see that the total amount pledged is very nearly

                                                   $71,000

As Bella would say, "HOLY CROW!"  I think the goal was, what?  $10,000?

 We are absolutely amazing! 

We have had a lot of reviews on A Different Forest, mine is coming, but I would like to discuss THE AUDIENCE and how they reacted.

So, fill in the blankety blanks:

The Scene that got the biggest reaction was _________ the reaction was _____________ my response was _______________.

The Scene that got the most unintended reaction was ________________ .

The BEST audience response was ______________________.

The most annoying audience response was ________________________.

IF YOUR AUDIENCE RESPONDED TO THE MOVIE IN A WAY SIMILAR, LET US KNOW. We want TRENDS!

I think everyone can figure out how we both feel about New Moon from this exchange. TELL US YOUR THOUGHTS ON NEW MOON!
