I think its great that theyre filmed close together. The Harry Potter ones are too far apart. Im sick of waiting for them. I suppose they need to get them done pretty quick coz Rob cant age either! lol Im so happy that we will get to see new moon and eclipse by just over a years time! yay! Any word on whether Breaking Dawn is a goer yet?

Breaking Dawn will be filmed and has been officially picked up by Summit but the dates havent been set yet.

oooh!! that just made my day! although eclipse is my favourite, i cant wait to see it on the big screen!

I am just really happy that they will be doing all four movies and the complete saga.

They start filming on my bday!!

I think I would have flipped out if they didnt finish it up.

I'm also glad they picked up the last movie....that is great news....

oh yeah definitely i would have flipped if they didnt finish them too. i cant wait!!

And there was this stupid rumor going around saying Rob might not do Breaking Dawn but thankfully our sweet RPattz cleared that rumor right up as soon as he was asked about it at Cannes. He said he was definitely doing it and everyone is excited about the last movie being officially green lighted but they dont have any official start dates yet.

OME I feel the same way Maria! And I think it will be amazing to not only have each movie but then to able to buy the box set! That would be amazing.

i guess i need to make a breaking dawn forum now!

that makes me sooooooo happy! so happy that they all are being done. i can't wait for eclipse either! trying to keep up with new moon is work and then bam eclipse comes to play. but i hope this guy can direct that fight scene the way i see it my head.. or at least a little..lol

I know what you mean Tam, You kinda get a complete picture in your head of what you are reading actually happening. Thats something I really love about these books so I hope it all at least halfway matches what I have in my head

I also think that is the challenge and pretty much impossible to get totally right. Every Twilighter has their own idea of what the "perfect" picture is for all the books in general and so there is a lot of pressure on the actors and the director to get it right. Thats the one thing about Twilighters.....we are pretty intense and when we dont like something we say it. I still think it is hilarious how some people never wanted Rob to be Edward and now he is this amazing actor who has a place in our hearts. I cant wait to see all the movies and Eclipse is my favorite for many reasons and not just the battle. For me, the backstories of the Cullens were what made me so intrigued so I am curious to see how they pull all that off. Seeing Jasper and Rosalie's backstories will be intense.

There are a lot of Twilighters who complained about the movie and their reasoning is because their favorite scene wasnt the way they thought it would be. Not all Twilighters liked it like most of us did. I loved Twilight.

i agree as a die hard fan i was thrilled with twilight. i think there was a little over acting but you can't blame the actor completely for that.. but as a while that movie held up for me. if all the buzz about new moon is the same.. i'll be happy.

eclipse i worry about them not doing the cullen background thing for some reason. i want it.. i have to have JASPER's background.. that is a MUST..it leads to everything. but i swear i worry that it will be left out and i hate that. i hope i'm so wrong tho!

i watched 30 days of night and the wy this director did the fight scene was really good i thought. pull out views of them tearing up the place and air shots. i hope that it's done right.. i want to see edward fight victoria and see everyone else and the wolves tearing it up. lets hope that SM doesn't shoot it down too much, since she has so much say over it all and no movie can be over pg-13.

I agree they MUST do Jasper and Rosalie's backstories because it explains so much about their characters. Alice's backstory was skipped over in Twilight but it didnt really affect the story or her character whereas you totally understand both Jasper and Rosalie because of their backstories so yea I am worried they overlook that.

I love the pics lol

Thanks! I love yours too!

Why thank you! I cant wait for them to start filming Eclipse! Actually yes I can lol. I get to see Kellan August 15th so I am focused on that date right now but after that it will be like OME Eclipse is being filmed!!!
