Twilight Tuesdays

I've known about it for a while, but seeing this video just made it all the more real. MTV have really hit the jackpot, and they're hitting it HARD. They've found a topic that will draw in hundreds of thousands of people to their site... but i'm not complaining, especially since i'm just as obsessed with this as the next person. So, every Tuesday, they'll be releasing some awesome stuff for us to look at.

Looks like I have a new favourite day of the week...

This just went up on YouTube:

Ogle at Edward. Go on. I know you want to.

Another week, another video to induce hyperventilating

Yes, MTV did it again. I swear to frick, I love Larry Carroll, their journalist. He officially has THE BEST JOB IN THE WORLD. I want his job. When I graduate from uni with my Bachelor of Journalism, I will be TRACKING HIM DOWN.

Actually, if I can’t find Alexandra Patsavas and get her job first, then I’ll TRACK HIM DOWN. Alexandra is a music supervisor for so many popular TV shows and movies, and gets PAID to make soundtracks for them. Hmm… the worst job in the world, I’d imagine, getting paid to discover music.

Not that I’m endorsing them or anything. The love just runs deep, is all.

So, this movie was actually a dual production from Summit and MTV, so the awesomeness has been upped since the last video just by that factor alone. And, of course, the fact it was also narrated by Stephenie Meyer – just like NoMoreMarbles said in her reaction to the video – was AWESOME.

Here it is, in all its 4 minute glory:

• MTV



• Music Videos



• MTV Shows



• Entertainment News

I’m just going to officially make a few points.
One: I love Alice. Alice, already my favourite character, has been cast probably the best out of everyone. And Ashley Greene is gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous.

Two: I can’t believe the only clip they gave of Rob speaking in an American accent had the word ‘spidermonkey’ in it.
Third: I was only mildly drooling over James in the shirtless scene. Don’t hold it against me.
And finally: I totally experienced heart palpitations like never before when I saw that part with Edward and Bella in the hospital scene. I love Bella’s reaction, although I would have done more than inflate like a balloon while I was swooning. I probably would have… I dunno, dropped dead.

Mmm… James…

My sister made a good point last night when, after watching the video, whined, “Why can’t it come out NOW?!?!”

Indeed.

Stephenie Meyer's Cameo

I haven’t seen such an outburst since the days of this Kristen Stewart interview. Here I was, googling “Twilight Movie News”, hoping for something new to look at, and I stumble across an MTV blog not an hour old.

Pretty much, they spilled the beans on the Stephenie Meyer cameo in Twilight. Thinking they obviously had the authority to do such a thing, I flag it and send it to the Lexicon and a couple of other affiliated Twilight-news sites. Everyone would have find out by the next morning anyway.

I wake up this morning and there’s been this massive outrage against MTV. I almost feel sorry for the journalist who wrote it (and who probably just got handed the press release and told to write about it) and is now copping such extreme shit for it.

What I don’t get is why everyone is in such an outrage about it. Sure, it was probably Stephenie’s news to tell, and it was probably going to be a surprise, but what I don’t understand is how come no one realises that if the news is Twilight-related, it WON’T STAY A SECRET. In a way, I’m thankful they did the blog, because now I’ll know to look out for the author.
