Attention: All DFW KKITM fans & surrounding syndicate listeners!
Next week, (Monday, in fact), Robert Pattinson’s interview that took place with radio morning DJ Kidd Kraddick will air. I am unclear whether this is the interview from last year (which was awesome, by the way!) or if we are being graced with a brand new one. Man, am I hopefuly!
Also on Monday? Ashley Greene who plays Alice Cullen will call in at 8:40 CST!
You’ve got to watch this adorable interview with the Taylor & Rob from Twilight Saga: New Moon and their director, Chris Weitz. This was taped during the whole New Moon press junket phase.
‘New Moon’ hunks Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner sit down with director Chris Weitz to discuss working around Rob’s physical incapacity, Taylor’s preparation to join the saga — and just how much he really has to hold up the movie while Edward is away.
Even though, it is my personal opinion that Rob got the short end of the stick on his new umm… title via People Magazine. In this month’s special issue, you can read that he was awarded in The Vampire Awards with “Best Hair” in the “Sexist Man Alive” publication.
Better luck next time, Rob, hmm? You don’t need no stinkin’ magazine to let you know you’re sexy! HA! Like you even care, right?! LOL
I checked my calendar, ladies & YES! It is STILL Robvember, indeed it is.
Check out these lovely new outtakes of Rob from his Vanity Fair magazine. Thank you, VF, my new best friend LOL Keep the outtakes coming, my friend! LOL
Over the weekend Gossip Cop reported box office estimates, but now the numbers are final. Sources at Summit Entertainment tell us “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” grossed an astonishing $142.8 million over its first three days, for a $35,497 average on 4,024 screens.
Despite the tremendous numbers, a spokesman for Summit says there’s “no announcement planned” for a potential “Breaking Dawn” production.
Vampires and werewolves are Hollywood’s new kings.
Sources tell Gossip Cop “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” has set a (non-summer) weekend box office record, taking in an astounding $140.7 million since it opened nationwide at midnight on Thursday.
The film’s record-smashing first night paved the way for a three-day haul that “eclipses” all previous weekend windfalls (except summer’s “The Dark Knight” and “Spider-Man 3″).
The estimated international box office take for the three days is $258.8 million.
OTHER MILESTONES & NOTES:
Best gross for midnight shows ever at $26.3 million surpassing HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE ($22.2 million).
$140.7 million playing at 4,024 theaters for a per theater average of $34,965.
Best single opening day ever surpassing THE DARK KNIGHT ($67.2 million).
Biggest 2 day total to reach $100 + million ($115.9 million to surpass THE DARK KNIGHT’s $114.8 million).
Biggest November opening in history surpassing HARRY POTTER AND THE GOBLET OF FIRE ($102.7 million).
3rd biggest opening weekend ever surpassing PIRATES OF THE CARRIBEAN: DEAD MANS CHEST ($135.6 million).
Wow, it has not even been a full week with the movie in the theatre and there is already talk of the DVD! This is awesome.
The only thing that could make this better is to hear that Breaking Dawn has been given the greenlight. Like officially, not just in passing conversation or the actors saying their interested. I’m talking 100% confirmed, no doubt, no changes. Moving right along….
‘New Moon’ Director Chris Weitz Reveals DVD Details
Weitz plans to include at least 20 minutes of deleted material from the blockbuster.
BEVERLY HILLS, California — After this weekend’s record-shattering opening, “New Moon” is now officially the biggest film of 2009. In a few months, it will inevitably become one of the biggest DVD releases of 2010.
So what can we expect from the “New Moon” DVD? Recently, we caught up with director Chris Weitz and got the scoop on the disc you’ll soon want sitting next to “Twilight” on your shelf.
“There will be a commentary track,” Weitz revealed, saying that he’ll soon head into the recording booth with his three big stars, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. “It’ll just be us riffing off each other in our intimate way,” he grinned. “We kind of like each other, so that should be fun.”
In addition, fans can look forward to picking up a copy of “Twilight in Forks,” the independently made documentary that teased fans with brief glimpses of its exploration into the real-life town that inspired Stephenie Meyer, only to be snatched up by Summit in September. An insider told MTV recently that the film will not be re-edited but will hit DVD alongside “New Moon” with all-new packaging and artwork.
Judging by the insatiable appetite of Twilighters, they’ll be filling DVD stores in the first quarter of 2010, eager to glimpse the deleted scenes Weitz plans to unveil for the first time.
“There will be probably about 20 minutes of deleted material,” he explained, promising some meaty footage. “It really is good stuff and a bonus for the fans.”
Among this bonus footage could be several moments MTV knows were shot but did not make the final “New Moon” cut, including:
A scene with Rachelle Lefevre as Victoria driving to Forks in a car, snacking on a dead human. It was one of the final moments the actress filmed as the nomadic vampire.
A scene with the human characters eating Burger King.
Another scene with the humans, this time with Justin Chon and Michael Welch expressing jealousy over Edward’s car.
More scenes with the Volturi in Italy.
An extended cut of the scene where Mike Newton quotes Shakespeare to Bella in the Forks High parking lot; in it, he does a Marlon Brando impersonation.
Scenes alluding to the ongoing breakup between Newton and Anna Kendrick’s Jessica.
“When I made the film, I wanted it to arrive at a certain kind of flow and cadence,” Weitz said of why he had to leave so many scenes on the cutting-room floor but hopes to restore many for the DVD. “[They would have affected] how the movie worked, and they didn’t completely fit. But there’ll be some groovy stuff in [the DVD].”
In a recent interview, Twilight Saga’s Anna Kendrick (who plays Bella Swan’s good friends, Jessica Stanley) divulged what she really thought about working with Robert Pattinson and George Clooney.
Personally, someone normally talking about them would piss me off. But, it’s really hard to be mad at this chick, she’s so cute. I think it’s funny she has the nerve to say something this. I know she totally means it in a playful way.
