Harder. Faster. Day by day leading to the release of New Moon, Summit is tempting us, throwing chunks of eye candy to die-hard fans more and more often.

This week has been climactic, to say the least.

First, the newest spot to hit the telly. Chock full of vampires, half naked men, and werewolf shape-shifting action, this trailer proves that New Moon will not disappoint fans.

Team Jacob fans will love this transformation clip. Straight from the book, Bella slaps Paul. Enjoy the wrath that follows.

And if you haven't been taunted enough, grab your tissue for this Volturi scene, released in Rome today. Though it strays from the book a bit, mustn't every successful action movie have a conflict and physical resolution? Melissa Rosenburg, screen writer for New Moon, chose to take out the Volturi's aggressions on Edward. Violently.

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.

It's been confirmed that some of the heaviest Twilight Saga hitters are, in fact, NOT tweeting. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner are among the non-Tweeters, as are Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene.

That said, however, Kellan Lutz did ring the bells of many a female Twilight fan when he tweeted from Peter Facinelli's account the other night at dinner:

Hey it's Kellan.Sitting here at dinner with Fach. Thanks for making me a trending topic. Don't know what that is but it sounds cool.luv ya

Edi Gathegi (Laurent) and Christian Serratos (Angela) often banter on their Twitter accounts; in fact, Christian recently twittered about fan favorite, Kellan Lutz:

Poker with Kellan...He called for cards and got them...even with magic powers he lost. ;)

Though I'm not one to become terribly enamored with the celebrity aspect of the filming process, it is a treat to find a celeb randomly tweeting on my account. Here's a comprehensive list of all the Twilight Saga celebs who grace the Twitter scene now and again:

• Peter Facinelli

Vampires are the hottest new thing on the block, and Edward Cullen is top of the pack, so say hellomagazine.com readers.

The newest poll inquires as to which vampire is the sexiest on-screen, and while Twilight 's Robert Pattinson, a.k.a. Edward Cullen currently holds the lead, my plea to Twilight readers is to honor the poll with votes to squelch the others and plummet Robert over the edge, the efforts of which will truly define the loyalty of the Twilight fan.

David Boreanaz, portrayed Angel in Buffy The Vampire Slayer, which aired from 1997 to 1999, then in his own spinoff of his characters name until 2004. David is poised to knock Robert Pattinson from his post at first.

Stephen Moyer, Bill of the sensuous, bloodied True Blood, holds a steady place, far behind, at third.

Rounding out last place is chum Wesley Snipes, who is possibly best known for his portrayal as the easily forgettable Blade.

In a candid interview, Tobias Wilner of Blue Foundation reveals to me details about his fans, his band, and the inspiration behind Twilight's underground hit, Eyes on Fire.

Tobias knows his fan base extremely well. "My fans are like me," he says. "Often a little bit to sensitive to the real world." He further describes the significance behind the random project name, Blue Foundation, saying, "It's all about the soundtrack of your life."

Though the lyrics of Eyes on Fire seem to have been written specifically for Twilight, Tobi reveals otherwise, offering up a great deal of insight into the pained tone of the song:

It really seems like the song was written for the movie, but it was  not. It was written a year before in a cold, dark December night in Copenhagen in a very old and trashy house where I used to have my studio by Kirstine and me. I think the music and lyrics speak for itself, but I can tell you, I did the music in the hardest period in my life, struggling with relationship and suicidal thoughts. It was all about stand up against your demons and fight back, be strong. I think that's the beauty about this song. It's about anger and strength to fight back. Be strong and be able to continue to walk through the "desert".

How was your band chosen to be on the Twilight soundtrack?
The reason why the song was chosen to be on the Twilight soundtrack was (because of) my partners from Zync Music who played the music for Catherine Hardwicke; she really fell in love with the song "Eyes on Fire". She chose the song because of the way it sounds and Kirstine Stubbe Teglbjaeg's lyrics.

Has it been a benefit or a curse?

Of course more people know about my music because of Twilight so that's good. I didn't do the movie - I just wrote this song with Kirstine, and it ended up in a blockbuster (film). It's that simple. I will continue doing what I do. Compose music and write song because I have to. That's what I do...

Is there any possibility you'll have a song on the New Moon soundtrack?
NO one in the whole world knows! And I mean NO ONE KNOWS!

Describe the feel you try to portray with your music:
I just do the music for myself. I never think about other people. I do it for myself and only for myself. I never think what other people will think about my music when I do it. It's all about my inner struggle. I'm quite sure that music mirror other people's sadness just like "Eyes" does.

I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Gil Birmingham, who plays wheelchair-bound patriarch Billy Black in Twilight and in New Moon. Read on to learn a few things you probably don't know about Gil...

You may be surprised to learn that Gil's background includes the polar opposites of bodybuilding and - after he earned an administration degree from USC - a stint in petrochemical engineering. "I actually fell into acting during my bodybuilding days," he explains. "I was asked to appear in a Diana Ross music video for her song Muscles. It was my first acting experience in front of a camera, and I was hooked."

To date Twilight is his most memorable film, and a combination of youthful energy, director Catherine Hardwicke's vision, and the sheer scope of the film made Twilight a unique project, he says.

Gil admits to enjoying the diversity of roles that now come his way and looks for those which will challenge him as an actor. An appearance on the comedy 10 Items Or Less gave him the chance to experience a different pace and spontaneity to that of traditional drama.

He's also got a new movie coming out - Love Ranch, in which he plays corrupt sheriff Johnny Cortez, right-hand man to Joe Pesci's character Charlie Bontempe. Based on a true story, the film, which is currently in post production, is about the couple who founded Nevada's first legal brothel, the Mustang Ranch.

"I had the opportunity to work with award-winning actress Helen Mirren and Joe Pesci, who both are extremely talented," says Gil. "I was able to watch them and how they approached their roles; it was an honour to work with them."

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 before 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?

In the wake of Robert Pattinson's 23^rd birthday and reprisal of his role as Edward Cullen in New Moon comes a wave of speculation among critics. Has Robert become typecast as a suave romantic lead?

The dreamy-eyed Brit's portrayal of Edward Cullen in teen flick Twilight has roused the libidos of women young and not quite so young around the world. The gasps heard every time he saunters into the cafeteria in his opening scene echo throughout the movie, culminating with his final, anguished kiss with Bella at the prom.

Not one to become caught up in the outpouring of screaming teens, Rob has aligned himself with a variety of roles - a true testament to his desire to submerge himself in the character at hand and not simply a money-making franchise.

He's just signed up to star alongside Aussie Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz in Unbound Captives, a period western set in the 1850s. The independent film marks the directorial and screenwriting debut of Madeline Stowe, best known for The Last Of The Mohicans.

Between stints of filming New Moon and Eclipse, the third film in the Twilight saga, Rob will be occupied on another role - the lead in Remember Me, previously titled Memoirs. The drama mirrors his role as Edward Cullen in focusing on two lovers whose new-found relationship is threatened as they cope with a succession of complicated family tragedies that test their bond.

True Robert Pattinson fans will remember Rob's more awkward, conflicted roles such as the bumbling misfit Art in the recent indie flick How To Be. And there's his melodramatic, flamboyant Salvador Dali in Little Ashes, a role which tests both his acting chops and underscores his security in his sexuality. Though the film's 'conflict' threads were similar to those of Twilight, the steamy sex scene between Dali and Federico Lorca, portrayed by Javier Beltran, turned Rob into the antithesis of the confident, yet virginal Edward Cullen.

With three more Twilight films in the pipeline fans will have their cup filled with the bedroom eyes and tousled hair that define Robert. Beyond those I foresee a clutch of roles he's equipped well beyond his 23 years to tackle. Stay tuned.
