Happy New Year

Hi there Twiworld!

Did you miss me? Well I missed all of you! Remember the good old times when we used to celebrate New Year’s Eve on Isle Esme?

Get the champy out, it's HTD party time!

Well I wish all of you a happy new year with lots of great surprises and good times! And that you’ll all get over your classic New Year’s hangovers soon… Oh and also in case you’re planning your wedding this year, you can go and get your Bella wedding dress now. No joke. Don’t believe me? Here check it out, Alfred Angelo is indeed selling the Bella wedding gown. Then all that’s left to do is ask the Cullens if you can rent Isle Esme for your honeymoon and your good to go.

PS: Please don’t ask me how I ended up on their homepage. Kthxbye.

Wanna look like Bella on your big day? Now you can!

Just kidding I’m not done yet. You didn’t think I could let the fact that someone is actually selling Bella’s wedding dress pass without a few comments, right? So yeah in case you can’t tell sarcasm (you know like Sheldon from Big Bang Theory): I do NOT think anyone should buy this as their wedding dress. Ever. Cause I think weddings should be unique and special. And not Twilight copy cat weddings. Twilight inspired maybe but not Twilight copies. Plus please imagine your future husband being made fun of for the next 50 years by his buddies for actually letting his wife plan a Twiwedding. Lmao. I would never do that to my fiance. Oh wait I don’t have one right now… Well I wouldn’t do it to him if I had one.

Wanna show off your half-naked butt to your whole wedding party including your grandma? Now you can!

Might be the number 1 rule to get one anyway: Don’t ever mention wanting to plan a Twiwedding haha. Well I’m not too fond of Bella’s wedding dress anyways. I mean I think it fit in well with the movie (more on that in the soon to come review) but I wouldn’t choose it as a wedding gown for myself. Period. Unless Randy from Say Yes to the Dress would pick it for me. Cause you know Randy always knows best. Who else is basically in love with Randy and wants him to help pick her wedding dress? Anyone? If not get off here cause then we can’t be friends

Oh also has anyone seen Red Riding Hood? How did you like the newest project directed by Cathy Hardwicke, the woman who brought us Twilight aka the most sexy version of movie Edward in my opinion? SPOILER ALERT: 10 bucks say she wanted Billy Burke to play the wolf cause she thought it would mean he would have to run around shirtless for 90% of the movie. Cause you know she has a thing for him. and any other Twimen for that matter. Oh Cathy the Cougar, sometimes I really miss you…

a

Off to browse Alfred Angelo some more. Did you know they have a Disney collection? Now THAT is classy and super awesome. Cause who doesn’t love a stylish Disney princess?

Hey Bella, let’s renew our friendship

* No, this is still not the Eclipse review. I promise to post it soon but I’ve only seen the movie once so far and that is definitely not enough to write a full post of awesomeness. So just hold out a little longer while I gotta talk to Bella. *

Hey Bella, remember how I used to give you a hard time and call you dumb and annoying? That must have been around my third read through Twilight I think. The first two times I was still in “OMG, this girl is just like me” mode as most of us have probably been. But then for some reason you started going on my nerves with your being bothered by everything attitude and random crap like stopping to breathe for a full 3 minutes each time Edward would walk by you. So what I really wanna say is I might have to take part of that back. Cause lately I kinda “get you” in most scenes. Stupid, silly behaviour? Smiling to your self all the time? The jitters and that electric feeling everytime that special someone walks towards you? Yep, I get it. It all comes back to me now.

What do you think are the chances of Bella Facebook stalking Edward?

I can understand why you do certain things even though they seem really dumb. Like let’s say stalking someone on facebook and reading every single entry on his wall in the history of forever aka back to the day he joined facebook. Oh no wait, that wasn’t you. Edward doesn’t even have facebook. I would know cause he would’ve told me. Oh whatever, you get my point. So Bella, what do you think? Can we go back to our old friendship from back in the days before I started getting annoyed? Can we restore what we once had? I promise not to make that much fun of you anymore! Except maybe about that one scene where Edward kisses you and you become unconscious. I mean seriously? Unconscious? That’s just plain stupid cause that way you miss all the brilliancy of a true Edward kiss. That WAS ridiculous! But other than that I swear we could be real good friends. You know, we could go out shopping with Alice and stuff. Aw, wait, I forgot shopping bothers you. What about going to a party together then? Hm, no you don’t like that either. I guess we could find something to do together though. In case we can’t come up with anything else we could just hang out at the Cullens’. I’d be cool with that you know…

a

Your renewed BFF for life

A Day with Bree and the Newborns Vol.2

Here comes part two!

a

Everything is so much more fun with party hats

6.) Where did the Newborns live when they had a few days off? Did they built a camp or something? Would there have been “one day in newborn-camp” stories hadn’t they all been killed?
all the newborns hated each other there were 2 main “gangs”.  2 vamps who were the kind of leaders of the 2 groups and then the people who had “allied” with them bree didn’t belong to any of them.  they stayed in abandoned houses with basements since they thought the sun would kill them during the day they would stay in i guess ignoring or plotting agains each other.  They had to move often because sometimes they would get in fights and destroy the house they were staying at.  they don’t really find out that they’re an army and start training until the end so for the most part they’re just doing nothing
Hm, sounds kinda boring. I really hoped they would build campfires to roast some marshmallows…

7.) If it is true that Bree calls Edward redhead all the time, does she have nicknames like that for other characters as well?
she does call edward the redhead, but i can understand why and it doesn’t bother me.  Bella really appreciates and takes the time to study edward so she can afford to make distinctions between red and bronze.  bree, is about to get killed is super afraid, i can understand why she doesn’t take the time to categorize edwards particular shade of redish/orange/brown.  she doesn’t really have nicknames for the others, she just calls them the one with the black hair, the blonde one and things like that…
To be honest, I think the reason why I was so surprised that Bree calls Edward a redhead is because in my imagination he doesn’t have reddish hair at all. I simply ignored the facts and gave my imaginary Edward brown hair. Cause come on, bronze? What is that supposed to look like? Who the eff has bronze hair? I bet that isn’t even a real color!

8.) Did Bree have a chance to get a climpse at those hot shirtless Quileutes before they turned into wolves and the fight broke loose?
nope, she actually got late to the fight, that’s why she’s the only one that survived.  also, remember the wolves were not in the clearing with the cullens.  once she surrendered jasper made her close her eyes and covered her ears with his hands.  she could still hear “something” like some howling and the thud of their hearts but she’s got no clue what it is.  she thinks it might be some other kind of vampires.  Riley keeps them pretty clueless about everything
She didn’t even get to see those hot shirtless Indian teenage boys? Damn, seems like she missed ALL the good stuff…

9.) Where there hot vamps in the Newborn Army that would’ve made it worth to switch to the dark side?
not that we could tell, bree doesn’t really go into a whole lot of details about what the other people look like except for diego who had dark curly hair
Let me think: No hot guys, no campfires to roast marshmallows and not one single glimpse at the wolfpack abs? I’m out!

10.) Do we get to know anything about Victoria? ANYTHING? Because THAT’S the bad vamp I would have loved to read a book about!
not a thing – she barely even shows up
Now that really disappoints me. Seriously, what annoyed me about this Bree book was that Bree is a character I do not care about in the slightest. Victoria on the other hand? Hell yes I would love to read a book about her! She’s fierce and cool. She’s got that special “escaping” ability, lost her vampire soulmate. That’s TRAGIC! And EPIC! THAT would have been the book I would’ve loved to read! That, or Midnight Sun…

a

Off to NOT join a Newborn army

Soul

PS: A HUGE thanks and BIG hugs to blufish27 for taking the time to answer all my questions. I never thought the Bree book could be that much fun. WIN! Maybe I’ll give it a try. Right after I read Midnight Sun.

Let’s get hyped up for Eclipse! Oh no, you’ve already seen it? How could I forget that?

Okay, maybe you’ve already watched Eclipse once. Or twice. Or multiple times. But I haven’t so I decided the right thing to get me even more excited is to have a look at some new Eclipse clips. Here they come.

a

The one where Victoria and Riley ALMOST get it on

Okay, you all know I got some issues with that whole Rachelle Lefevre being kicked out thing. I’ll get used to it. Someday. I just wish they hadn’t made Bryce put on a wig. I mean hello? She’s a NATURAL redhead, so where’s the point? Whatever. I kinda wish they had kissed in that scene because Riley and Victoria are a HOT couple!

a

The one where they have a sex-talk

Charlie is so much win here! Billy Burke NAILS it! But… I hate Bella’s greasy hair here. Yeah, big surprise since I mentioned how much I hate that wig about 1735 times over the last 3 weeks. Plus Kristen’s acting? I mean, where was it? One word: Unconvincing! She didn’t seem embarrassed AT ALL. WTF? I’m so not dazzled… FAIL!

a

The one where they try to fight

Hello there! I love me some good fight scenes! The Emmet Jasper one? So good! This might be one of the top three scenes that make me understand all those (read: 12.4) Team Jasper members out there. Honestly, he IS cool and sexy and awesome here. WIN! It was about time he got some magic moments in those movies!

a

Off to watch that fight scene another 184 times

Soul

What is your Eclipse count? How many times have you already watched Eclipse? How hot is Jasper in that fight scene? How much does Charlie rock that sex-talk? And how bad is Kristen’s acting in comparison? Leave a comment or e-mail us!

Top ten lists back in action aka stuff we are excited to see in Eclipse

Guess what I found in that dusty back corner of our blog where we like to hide series we once started and then forgot about. Yep, top ten lists. In fact I used to be pretty good at putting those together and I thought maybe I should go back to it and make a list full of stuff I really want to see when I watch Eclipse for the first time. Now here comes the list!

a

Top ten things I want to see during Eclipse

Jump up on your seat NOW!

1.) Some insane Jacob-worshipping girl jumping up on her seat and yelling “TEAM JACOB” during the Bella and Jacob kiss.

2.) Above mentioned girl getting slapped in the face by some Team Edward Twihard yelling “FACEPUNCH” (Haha, that would already be two of the things on my stuff to yell during Eclipse list. WIN!)

3.) The scene where Alice kidnaps Bella. (Yeah, I KNOW that scene doesn’t exist in the movie. I want to see it anyway though so I put it on the list. Just in case. )

4.) The leg hitch. Always the leg hitch.

5.) A wolfpack nude scene. (Honestly, they cannot ALWAYS get their jorts out in time! )

6.) The Edward and Jacob fight scene. (Everytime I watch it on YouTube I hope that this time Charlie will NOT come out in time and they will start a REAL fight.)

Time to kick ass, Carlisle!

7.) The Cullens fighting the Newborns. (I wanna see Daddy Carlisle and Esme kick some vampire asses so bad!)

8.) The Jasper flashback. (Yep, that would actually have been Zelda’s thing to say but it’s true. I too wanna see southern soldier Jasper Whitlock on a horse.)

9.) Howard Shore’s score. (Say what you want, call me lame, I don’t care! You should know by now I have a composer crush on Howard.)

10.) The tent scene. (Because I know I’ll receive at least 963 hate comments within 2 minutes if I don’t put that on the list as well…)

a

Top ten lists are back in town y’all!

What were you excited for when you went to see Eclipse? Did anyone jump up and then get punched in the face while you were in the cinema? Let me know! Leave a comment or e-mail us!

Let’s get this Saturday started with a few more Eclipse stills

Here come the rest of the Eclipse stills. Plus random notes from me. You know, the usual…

Yep, another one for my homegirl Zelda! And again I cannot get over the Jasper hair. It’s not really the hair itself, more the fact that it looks remarkably different in every single movie. When even some not-inot-Twi-at-all real life friend of mine says after having watched the trailer “Is there a reason why he changed his hair?” and all you can reply is “No, they keep messing it all up with awful wigs” then it’s a sad day in the Twidom. But remember how we used to give Nikki a hard time around here and snark about Rosalie being the ultimate bitch? Well, I gotta admit the Rosalie hair here is THE BEST IT’S EVER BEEN! Hands down. I LOVE IT!

Aw, Bella and her mum enjoying the sun. How sweet. Plus there’s a huge present. Win! Only there was that second where I realized Renee looks kinda pregnant here. She is not though, right? RIGHT? Or did Melissa Rosenberg write a pregnancy in there to justify Renee’s absence through the part in Breaking Dawn where her daughter Bella is deathly ill and she doesn’t come over to look after even once? Oh well, that awholenother post I guess…

After posting the worst wig pic yesterday, I felt like today is the day for posting a better one. Because yes, that is probably the best Bella’s wig ever looked in Eclipse. (Thanks to Dot for sending me the link to that one!)

Is this the sex-talk or what? No idea, but I just HAD to post another Charlie pic. You know, for Mama Soul cause I think she might have a little crush on him. Sorry to say, Papa Soul… Plus how awesome is it that we got the exact same little bottle of tabasco at home than the Swan’s? True story!

I love me some Daddy Carlisle! Plus that whole Cullen family ready to fight portrait pretty much rules. In other news: Please notice how Edward looks the buffest here he ever has in Twimovie history! WIN!

a

Off to put my Cullen crest sweatpants on to get ready to fight

Soul

Any other Eclipse outtakes that would have been worth posting? Is that Bella Charlie still really from the sex-talk? How sexy does Edward look with his fight-outfit? And is Renee really pregnant or was that just the wind blowing up her top? Leave a comment or e-mail us!

A little something to keep all the HTD girls occupied

Hi everyone!

You’re probably wondering where today’s brandnew post is right now. Uhm, it’s not here yet. I’m late. Again. Sorry! I fail at life lately. Since Papa Soul’s 50th birthday is drawing close and Mama Soul and I bought him the best present ever aka the new improved version of my beloved MacBook (Tell him about it and you’re DEAD! And even worse, banned from this blog FOR LIFE!) I am busy sitting on my bed with my technical pro guyfriend setting it all up so he can use Mac as well as Windows and other boring computer stuff you don’t care about. Most of the time he uses my lappy to look sites and keys up on the internet and all the time I’m afraid he might accidently stumble across that manip folder with all those almost-porn pics of Rob I found on facebook. So don’t judge if I’m not brave enough to blog right under his eyes! I like this guy and want to keep him as a friend and not think I’m a weird obsessed Twihard. Which I might be but he doesn’t have to know about that, right? So while you are all bored to death, waiting for this day to become oh so much better (aka waiting for the new HTD post to hit the internet) why don’t you go and play that Lost in Forks game and win a Volvo? All you gotta do is find the Cullen’s house. There are even little clues to help you at each crossing. At least that’s what they say. Let me know if you got it! Make a screenshot or pic or whatever and send it over! The first HTD reader (I’ll even let it count if you get your man to try as well. Just say you might win an awesome new car.) to get to the Cullens house will win a fantabulous (fake) prize! Now go and get Lost in Forks!

Off to prevent my friend from opening my fanfic folder

Join us on the Eclipse promo fun fair

Dear Summit people, when will you finally realize that you need my help with all that promo stuff? Do I really have to wait until Breaking Dawn for you to call me? Until you realize that apart from the wedding and the pre-pregnant Bella honeymoon there is absolutely NOTHING you can use? No fights, only talking. And sure as hell you don’t wanna tell people about that super creepy vampire-c-section or the demon baby. Maybe you could turn the pre-almost-fight gathering at the Cullens into a three week long vampire house party, but that’s pretty much it. So come on, give me a call! NOW! Cause I know you need my help! At least that’s what’s obvious from your newest Eclipse promo moves. I mean, online puzzle games? Online puzzle games to get the newest posters? For real? I’m a busy girl! I don’t have the time to do lame ass stuff like that! Sure, I find the time to run this blog, but that’s serious journalistic work! While spending half an hour puzzling just to get the newest pic of Jacob and Bella on a motorcycle is NOT! Fortunately there are enough people out there (the crazy Twimoms from Oprah and teenage Twihards who skip school for stuff like that) who make room in their schedules to finish those puzzles and then just share the pic with all of us. Awesome! So here are the four finished puzzles (for all of you who -like me- got better things to do):

Hey Kristen, I really appreciate your attempt! Unfortunately the hood did NOT cover up the bad hairline from the bad wig though…

Okay, what is up with this one? Edward looks sleepy! He is a damn vampire! Vampires are never sleepy. Ever. And Bella in that Eclipse outline? It looks as if the Cullens had put her under a glass bowl to protect her or some weird shit. Sorry, FAIL!

I love this one! You won’t hear one single negative word about it from me! The Cullen crest right there so close to the ring? Perfection! Plus that semi black and white / sepia tone of the whole pic? Brilliant! Makes the engagement ring look WAY less shiteous! Hey, that was NOT negative! I said LESS shiteous, that’s a compliment!

So this is your super new publicity trick? Making online puzzles? For New Moon we at least had those posters and lifesize Edward at Burger King. Which was so much more fun! Cause every Burger King you went into you could see the girls sneakily swooning over Edward (and Taylor’s abs as well from time to time). And then they were all gone. Oh no, not the girls, the posters! Remember when even the most decent girls who never in their lives even stole as much as a bubblegum tried to come up with a masterplan of how to steal those lifesize posters? And how pissed they were when they came to late only to see that some crazy Twihard had beaten them? Ah the fun of it… How are we supposed to do THAT with online puzzles, huh? No idea? Yeah, me neither…

a

Give me those lifesize posters! And no, online puzzle versions do NOT count!

Soul

a

So, did you do all those online puzzles? Good or bad move? I mean, some surely love to make those puzzles over and over again, but couldn’t they just have given us the normal poster in addition? Without the outlines of every single piece? Are they really trying to entertain us with shit like that so that we stay patient? I have no idea… What do you think? Did you do those puzzles for 8 hours straight yesterday at work? Let me know! Leave a comment or e-mail us!

(images: Eclipsemovie.org; cause I really don’t have the time to do stuff like that… seriously!)

Eclipse clips overload plus we give out a fake prize

Okay, this post might seem a bit random BUT there have been quite a few new Eclipse clips and since I know that some of you are getting all their Twilight related info here (including Zelda) I just HAVE to post this videos. Ready? Go!

a

The one where Jacob has the same car as one of the gym-guys

Honestly, I SWEAR one of the guys I hang out with at the gym has the very same red volkswagen rabbit as Jacob does in this clip. Weird! That’s probably all I’ll ever think of when I see him again. Also I wish Charlie would not show up and stop them from fighting. I so wish there would be a fight off right there. Oh well, I’ll get over it. I can tell that from the fact that the first time I saw the vid my thoughts went like this: Damn, Angryward is HOT! Oooohhh, there is CHARLIE! *squeeeeeeee* Maybe my mum finally succeeded in converting me to Team Charlie. Not in a “I wanna do him” way of course, how sick would that be? But in a “I can’t be angry with him for stopping Edward and Jacob from fighting because he’s just such a cute dad” way. Nuff said.

a

The one where the Cullens have a campfire

Everytime I watch this clip (or well, at least the last 53 times) I wish they would get marshmallows out and make a huge campfire party!

a

The one where Bella wears her Team Wolfpack jorts

Sorry for the crappy quality, couldn’t find a better one yet…

Ah the Bella and Renee scene. Do you think she would still be that happy if she knew her daughter was about to become a teen mom and half-name her child after her? I’m not quite sure. And is it just me or is Bella really wearing jorts in this clip? Maybe I’m just crazy past the point where I start seeing things… I need to find a screencap!

a

The one with Stephenie Meyer’s ultimate make-out band

Let’s be honest! There is no way Steph could deny that every time she and Pancho (Is that really her hubby’s name? I’m confused…) get going she throws in a Muse album. You know, for the atmosphere and mood and stuff… So here is the clip of Neutron Star Collision aka the song they’ll probably use for the credits at the end of Eclipse.

Now turn the volume up as loud as it will go (If you haven’t already done that, that is) and press play again (I know you want to)! Then grab your hairbrush, sing into it and jump up and down on your bed! Or on your desk if you’re at work and have no other choice. Because THAT’S what I call a party! Plus we got every reason to celebrate cause now I’ll hand out an absolutely fantabulous fake prize!

If you ever read our “About” page you know that I love to bake cookies. Then you should also know that I promised a fake prize for the first one to guess why I even started baking them in the first place. Honestly dear readers, I love all of you… But it took over six months until someone gave me the right answer to that? Did you think I was joking about the fake prize? You know me, I’m NEVER joking (haha). Did you fear I would think you were a fanfic addict? Well, your bad cause now it’s too late. Someone else left a comment asking me if my baking cookies had anything to do with Wide Awake. So dear chelseaheptig, I’m very proud to give you your well deserved fake prize! Congratulations! You win the Wide Awake Audiobook! AngstGoddess’s masterpiece read by Robert Pattinson himself including as a special feature Rob’s cover of “All the pretty little horses”.

Have fun with your super awesome (fake) prize!

a

Off to listen to Rob mumbling “All the pretty little horses” one last time

Soul

What do you think about all the new Eclipse clips? Any favorite scenes? Leave a comment or e-mail us! And the Muse video? I had a girls night yesterday with purple.is.cool and we DID sing it into our hairbrushes! Also are you jealous because chelseaheptig won that fantastic Wide Awake audiobook and not you? Next time you know I’m not joking when I promise fake prizes!

Eclipse promo shoots: Since when does Julia Jones have such insanely huge boobs?

If you have no idea who Julia Jones is, don’t worry! I too get easily confused with all those new wolfpack / Volturi / Newborn actors. Julia is the girl who plays Leah Clearwater, the only female werewolf. Basically that’s all you need to know about her to understand this post. Two days ago (I think) a TON of new Eclipse promo pics were released. I’m not kidding here when I say tons! It would take at least three post to discuss all of them. And yes, I actually might write all of them if nothing more interesting happens in the Twiworld soon!

I saw all the pics and suddenly realized I never wrote a post about Julia Jones before. In fact I don’t think I even mentioned her once here on the blog. So today I’m gonna make up for it! First of all, this girl looks HOT! While Ashley Greene is the sexy Cullen member Julia most definitely is the sexy wolfpack lady. And I don’t just say that because she’s the ONLY lady the wolfpack has to offer. Want proof? Here you go!

Sexy, huh? Yes, I know! Julia definitely is one of the hot chicks! I think she looks all kinds of seductive and sexy and fierce and strong and womanly in this photoshoot. And then I see the Leah Clearwater Eclipse promo pic. And I’m like WTF??? Take a look and see for yourself!

Okay, first of all the hair! What IS that? Braided? Just tangled? Twisted to make her fur look cooler when she transforms into a wolf? I have NO idea. But I’m sure it would have looked a million times better if they had just quickly brushed through and then put her in that wind tunnel. Then my second thought was damn, her arms look skinny! Like enormously skinny and not strong at all. That was before I realized that the proportions might be a little distorted by her INSANELY LARGE BOOBS! I remember the first Tomb Raider movie coming out with all those Lara Croft cut-out everywhere and Angelina Jolie complaining that they made her (already big by nature) boobs even bigger for those cut-outs. Is this some kind of guy fantasy thing I just don’t get? That strong women who have some kind of special skills or super-powers always have to be unnaturally good equipped in the upper department as well? And by upper department I do NOT mean their brains here, obviously. So next time someone feels the urge to take Leah Clearwater promo pics just let her be her beautiful self. Cause yes, Julia looks way better and more natural without that strange twisted hairdo and those abnormally large boobs. Cause I doubt Leah had a boob job before she turned into a werewolf / shapeshifter. By this you would also avoid making average girls like me feel bad for NOT having Lara Croft boobs. Because yes, shattering revelation I know, I may have super awesome dazzling skills, but alas I can’t rival Lara without wearing a wonderbra.

a

Off to NOT photoshop my upper department bigger

Soul

So, did you know who Julia Jones is? Do you sometimes wish we were back to Twilight again with only about five names to remember? What do you think about the Leah Clearwater promo pic? Share your thoughts in the comments or via e-mail!
