Most people bristle at change. It's comfortable in that little box, and we don't want to have to venture outside of it. Same goes for movies. Twilighters were comfortable with the first movie of the Twilight Saga, Twilight. Sure, there were glitches here and there, the makeup wasn't spot on, but it was easy, familiar, and true to the book.

 

Enter a change in director. When Chris Weitz was announced as the director, eyes began rolling, and speculation began. Catherine Hardwicke was visibly drawn to the Saga, treating it as her baby. What if Chris didn't read the books? What if he doesn't care how passionate the fans are and skews the vision to his own muse as opposed to that of Stephenie Meyer? These whisperings flittered around the net, much like the idea of "flittering images" that Weitz proposed to fans.

 

With the release of the third theatrical trailer of New Moon, fans were treated to snippets of nearly every part of undying queries about the flick, including the Volturi, the werewolves, Bella's cliff-diving escapade, the yellow Porsche, Italy, and yes, the much-anticipated "flittering" images of Edward, all true to the style of Chris Weitz.

 

The trailer alone has exceeded my expectations. Weitz's vision obviously takes into account the passion fans feel for the Saga. November can't come fast enough.

Twilight scored five Golden Popcorn awards at the US' MTV Movie Awards on Sunday evening thanks to the enthusiastic voting of Twilight Saga fans. 


Although it wasn't quite a clean sweep, the only misses of the evening were Best Song and Biggest Breakthrough Actor title - Taylor's loss, albeit to Rob. Technically a win-win situation depending on whether you were rooting to see either Team Edward or Team Jacob take the title.


Rob made a point of thanking his stunt double for helping secure the award for Best Fight Scene. Kristen pulled a "Bella" when she charmingly fumbled and dropped her Outstanding Actress award. And Rob and Kristen teased fans with a tentative, faux kiss upon accepting their award for Best Kiss.


Though host Andy Samburg provoked the audience with a clever New Moon spoof, the highlight of the evening was the debut of the official New Moon trailer. 


Hang on tight, fans. The ride is just beginning!

As you'll have seen from a hellomagazine.com story this week, Italian fans of Twilight were given a glimpse of the action in the sequel to the saga as Robert and his co-stars began lensing more scenes for New Moon. Just as all seemed to be going smoothly in Italy, though, photos from the most popular scene in the book were leaked.

Bella's frenzied dash to the pool to reach Edward before he exposes his glisteningly pale skin, as well as the tryst that followed, were plastered all over the net, oozing from viral sites to mainstream headlines in a matter of minutes.

This has spurred heated debate among Twilighters over whether to peek or not to peek.

Many fans, moi included, clamour for anything related to Twilight. Knowing exact filming locations, glimpses of Edward's chalky makeup, and video clips of the infamous yellow Porsche all give me butterflies. Seeing my favourite book come to life bit by bit, and the flick unfolding before1469-b.jpg my eyes is exciting.

But a select group of Twilighters scoff at anything that could possibly fall into the "spoiler" category. They know that a yellow Porsche will make its way into the movie, but seeing the proof detracts from the end experience. Instead of watching small snippets of filming, they prefer to take a backseat approach and wait until the movie debuts in its entirety. Only under those conditions do they want to feast their eyes on Edward's sexy six-pack.

So which category do you fall into?
