Twilight New Moon Extended Scene – Kristen Stewart


Kristen Stewart’s Bella (get this) meets Laurent in this extended scene from Twilight New Moon. Robert Pattinson also appears in what I hope is a deleted scene, because the effect is truly terrible (even fans have to feel me on this one).

The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus - DVD & Blu-ray, Lionsgate
"It's Heath Ledger's final film. There, that's got that out of the way. There's no way around mentioning this fact as, unlike Terry Gilliam's previous movie-making problems, the tragic and unexpected death of his lead actor greatly impacts on the movie itself here – and not in entirely detrimental ways. The aged Doctor Parnassus (Christopher Plummer) drags his mysterious sideshow act around London with the help of his daughter (a respectable turn from model Lily Cole), an apprentice, and a grumpy dwarf. His "act" involves sending volunteers through a magical mirror into the titular Imaginarium, a strange zone where dreams take flight, which is revealed to be part of a long-fought wager with Tom Waits's Devil, with the very concept of imagination is at stake. Ledger plays an amnesiac they find hanging from a bridge over the Thames, who's not the innocent he first appears. It's hard to understand and full of bizarre sequences, but that's really par for the course with any Gilliam film. It can't be fully appreciated on just one viewing. Ledger passed away with only the special effects shots to be completed, so the film's structure is pretty much intact". Source: www.guardian.co.uk

Romance, 8,427
Romance, a method of courtship defined by mystery and subtlety, died February 28. It was 8,427 years old. Though it was plagued in recent years by painful bouts of bloat and Reese Witherspoon, the immediate cause of death was Del Taco manager Josh Rivkin uploading a video of his girlfriend squatting above a canister of Pringles, filmed with a camera inside the canister. Born in early Sumerian civilization, romance was responsible for countless sonnets, serenades, and chivalrous acts. It thrived on veiled meanings and longing. It left no survivors.

Romantic Comedy, 81, Dies
A once beloved film genre about two strangers who overcome a seemingly insurmountable obstacle and end up as a happy couple, romantic comedy died in a conference room on the Warner Brothers studio lot Friday, as screenwriter Joe Bernstein was pitching a Kate Hudson vehicle about the romance between a dairy farmer and a lactose-intolerant woman.
Mark Ruffalo & Reese Witherspoon in "Just Like Heaven".

The cause was exhaustion. Observers close to the genre feared romantic comedy would die upon the release of the 2005 Reese Witherspoon/Mark Ruffalo movie Just Like Heaven, about the unlikely courtship between a ghost and a landscape architect, but it persisted in a vegetative state for three more years.

Vampires, 112, Die
The trend of vampire-related entertainment died March 14, in New York. The cause was Rob Schecter, a HarperCollins editor who assigned a young-adult novel about teenage vampires with anorexia. Born in 1819 with the publication of The Vampyre, by John Polidori, the trend centered on mythical creatures who sucked blood, avoided sunlight, and, most recently, looked like Marcel Marceau but with more hair gel. Vampires survived dozens of novels, an HBO series, and a Keanu Reeves movie. But the proposed YA novel proved fatal. "It's like Twilight but much edgier," said Schecter of the book idea. "We want to deal with real issues here. These vampire girls hate drinking blood because they think it's too fattening." Vampires are survived by zombies, werewolves, and investment bankers.


My Crush on Megan Fox, 11 Months, Dies
My crush on Megan Fox, the actress from the Transformers franchise, died February 5, in my friend's living room. The cause was a magazine article in which Ms. Fox told an interviewer that her farts smell like Chinese food after eating at a Chinese restaurant and that she often forgets to flush the toilet.
My crush was born in March 2009 after seeing a movie trailer with Ms. Fox on YouTube and noting that she resembles a mixture of Angelina Jolie and an inflatable doll. Though I never actually watched any movies featuring Ms. Fox, my crush flourished thanks to magazine photos and Google Image Search. My crush's health began to decline when it was revealed that Ms. Fox has a prose poem tattooed on her rib cage. It then deteriorated precipitously upon my learning she had the name of then-boyfriend Brian Austin Green, of Beverly Hills, 90210, tattooed on her pelvis.

My Wife's Crush on Kiefer Sutherland, 4, Is Dead
Promotional still of Elisha Cuthbert and Kiefer Sutherland in "24".

My Wife's Crush on Kiefer Sutherland, an actor best known for his work as an intense federal agent on the Fox drama 24, died April 11 on our couch. The cause was the revelation that Mr. Sutherland has formed an indie record label. The crush was four years old. Born in November of 2001 with the premiere episode of 24, the infatuation was a surprise to all. My Wife's Crush on Kiefer Sutherland had been in declining health since she discovered that Mr. Sutherland had moved to Montana in the mid-1990s and joined the rodeo circuit. The immediate cause of death, however, was an Extra interview in which Mr. Sutherland plugged his record label, called Ironworks.

Ellen Pompeo's Last Remaining Fat Cell Dies at 38
The final subcutaneous fat cell on the body of Ellen Pompeo -- star of TV’s popular Grey’s Anatomy -- died Sunday in Los Angeles. It was thirty-eight. The fat cell expired during a strenuous session of Bikram yoga in the Hancock Park section of L. A. It had been located on Ms. Pompeo’s left thigh.
The fat cell had been one of the few that accompanied Ms. Pompeo during her career, including appearances on Law & Order and in Old School. It had most recently been storing some glucose 6-P that Ms. Pompeo unknowingly ingested in her daily Pinkberry green-tea frozen yogurt. It is survived by bones and ligaments. Source: www.esquire.com

Kristen Stewart getting the music right in The Runaways

"We both were really concerned about getting the music right" says Stewart. "They have a very distinctive sound. It's not just singing. It's not just trying to sound good. It's trying to sound like them.Kristen Stewart with Joan Jett at Los Angeles Premiere of The Runaways.

"I had two weeks with Kristen; I knew she could play guitar and she was already practicing on her own," she says. "She already had recorded a little bit so I knew that she would come in prepared. I had about a month with Dakota and I put her in front of a live band for many rehearsals. Then when everybody got together I did numerous rehearsals as a band. So by the time I was filming they had already bonded and already knew what it was like to be in a band. I felt really confident on that level and so did they. I think that was really important. By the time we got to 'Cherry Bomb' they really excelled. We had a month of shooting and by that time they were a band."

Listen to
"Hollywood" by The Runaways


The Runaways Q&A opening with Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning The Runaways cast talks about the film at the opening of the Q&A session at SXSW!


Dakota Fanning is asked to act out the famous mic "over the leg" move as seen in the Runaways.

"The soundtrack is a good mix of the original Runaways songs, plus new versions sung by Stewart (as Joan Jett) and Dakota Fanning (as Cherie Currie). The album also includes an impressive collection of songs from artists that influenced both women in not only their musical style, but their personal style as well.
Always curious to see how actors do when faced with the challenge of depicting musical artists, Stewart and Fanning succeeded in embodying the style, and they weren’t too bad on the ears either. Fanning is particularly impressive as she channels Cherie Currie’s growl and attitude on her solo tracks. I have no doubt a whole new generation of girls will be singing “ch-ch-ch-ch-cherry bomb” thanks to this electric track". Source: gordonandthewale.com
