Tigra220 had no shortage of confidence when submitting her entry, adding simply, "I am THE.BIGGEST.TWIHARD.EVERRRR!!!" And that, it would appear, is the truth .... at least according to our voters.

Moviefone – Doc (Documentary) Talk: Does Celebrity Narration Matter?

The article discusses the power of who narrates films and could they be a draw to audiences to get them seen. Rob is mentioned in the discussion.

Two of the most famous documentary filmmakers, Michael Moore and Werner Herzog, narrate their own works and have become iconic through such practice. Interestingly, few of even Moore’s fanbase might be interested in hearing his voice over a nature doc, while many of us wish Herzog would narrate most films of any subject. We all likely have other favorites we’d like to hear narrating more. But if thinking in terms of fame and popularity is reason enough for celebrities to be cast as narrators, why aren’t people likeRobert Pattinson (for a doc about the vampire myth?) and the Jersey Shore cast (Pauly D would be perfect for docs about cabs or t-shirts) being cast in order to woo the younger demographics?

I’m not really looking for an answer to that last one. Documentary narration simply shouldn’t have fad-pop figures because they ought to have a more timeless feel to them. But I am still unsure of many elements to celebrity narration in documentary that you can answer. Like why do docs with female voice-overs seem more often randomly cast? Does it help the film if, in the case of Kate Winslet and ‘A Mother’s Courage: Talking Back to Autism,’ the narrator completely aligns with the doc’s cause afterward? And are any of you disappointed that Davis Guggenheim didn’t cast his wife, Elizabeth Shue, as the narrator for ‘Waiting for Superman’ like he did with his 2001 education doc ‘The First Year’?

I’m seriously anxious to hear if anyone’s seen a doc or avoided one strictly because of who’s narrating. Or, if not strictly, has celebrity narration ever influenced your level of interest?

'Breaking Dawn' Begins Shooting This Fall for Nov. 18, 2011 Release


Photobucket

With 'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' amassing more than $203.7 million
domestically and $104.6 million overseas as of Friday, Summit Entertainment has cast its gaze on the next episode in the Stephenie Meyer-penned saga by announcing that 'Breaking Dawn' will begin filming this fall in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and Vancouver.

The shoot for the final chapter, which will be released as two separate films, will last for the better part of next year, culminating in the release on Nov. 18, 2011 of the first of the two parts.

Academy Award-winner Bill Condon ('Gods and Monsters,' 'Dreamgirls') will direct both films, with returning cast members Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Billy Burke, Peter Facinelli, Elizabeth Reaser, Jackson Rathbone, Nikki Reed, Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz. Melissa Rosenberg, who wrote the screenplays for the first three 'Twilight' films, is currently working on the screenplay for the last editions.

With the same cast, writer and production company for all the 'Twilight' sagas (the only variable has been directors -- Catherine Hardwicke, Chris Weitz and David Slade), it's safe to assume that 'Breaking Dawn' will continue the winning streak for all concerned -- and keep Twihards very, very happy well into 2013

Moviefone : Kristen Stewart's on Team (Kissing) Jacob at Special NYC 'Eclipse' Screening

PhotobucketPhotobucket







'The Twilight Saga: Eclipse' premiere was in L.A., but New Yorkers got their very own special screening of 'Eclipse' at the Crosby Street Hotel on Monday, with stars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner on hand to greet fans and mingle with other celebs (including 'Modern Family's' Sofia Vergara and 'Mad Men's' Bryan Batt).

Kristen and Taylor couldn't have been nicer as we grabbed them for a couple of questions and photos. So not only did we get up close and personal with the two of them, but we also found out what Taylor thinks about all those shirtless scenes, whom Kristen likes kissing better between Edward and Jacob (in the movie! in the movie!), what one passionate fan asked Taylor to do and what Kristen's looking forward to -- and fearing -- about filming 'Breaking Dawn.'

Moviefone's Hottest Men of Summer 2010


Photobucket
Moviefone has come out with their anual Hottest Men of Summer list and Robert Pattinson and Taylor lautner have both made the cut. the join names such as Tom Cruise, Ashton Kutcher, Russell Crowe, Dev Patel, and Bradley Cooper. Sadly Jackson Rathbone did not make the list along side his fellow Twilight and Last Airbender castmates.
Here is what they had to say about Robert Pattinson:
‘He Plays: Vampire Edward Cullen, the one true love of mortal Bella Swan
Where Else You’ve Seen Him: Besides the ‘Twilight’ series? He was poor doomed Cedric in ‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,’ and romanced Emilie De Ravin in ‘Remember Me.’
Why He’s Hot: The knife-sharp cheekbones! That shock of unruly hair! That heroic profile! If ever any actor was born to brood, it’s R-Pattz. He’s just how we imagine our dream vampire boyfriend should be: pale and thin, with eyes that seem to bore into our soul. When he says, “I promise to love you forever,” who doesn’t swoon?”
See the whole list on Moviefone.

Has Dakota Fanning Grown Up Too Fast?

following Article comes from Movifone:

While playing '70s rocker Cherie Currie in 'The Runaways,' Dakota Fanning shot scenes where her character gets high, struts around a stage in a corset and stockings, has sex in a backstage dressing room, and shares an intimate kiss with bandmate Joan Jett (Kristen Stewart). A few months later, Fanning turned 16.

Fanning has made a career of playing girls in extreme situations who have maturity thrust upon them early, from mothering mentally challenged dad Sean Penn when she was just 7 in 'I Am Sam,' to playing a 12-year-old rape victim in 'Hounddog,' to reenacting the excesses of 15-year-old rock star Currie in 'Runaways.' While critics have praised her talent and precocity for years, Fanning keeps pushing the shock envelope with each performance. With the release of her most extreme role yet, observers have been asking if Fanning has grown up too fast.
By all accounts, Fanning lives the normal life of a 16-year-old girl off-screen (well, as normal as can be for a girl who's been an A-list movie star for most of her short life): she loves horses and dogs and is a member of her high school cheerleading squad. Onscreen, however, she's faced one trauma after another, including kidnapping, rape, murder and alien invasion, in performances that elicit harrowing emotions while displaying the icy professional aplomb usually associated with much more experienced adult actors.

So the charge of exploitation is not new for Fanning, and she's always had the same answer: she's not a Method actress, she has no difficulty going to dark places while the camera's running and then returning to her sunny life at the end of the workday, and she knows the difference between on-screen pretending and reality. I interviewed her when she was 11 and promoting 'War of the Worlds,' and she displayed in person the same mix of childlike cheerfulness, preternatural precocity and mature understanding of the nature of her profession that she does in interviews today.

Ask 'Remember Me' Stars Robert Pattinson, Pierce Brosnan, Emilie de Ravin and Director Allen Coulter a Question

“On Saturday, Feb. 27, we will be interviewing the entire cast of ‘Remember Me,’ including Emilie de Ravin, Pierce Brosnan, Chris Cooper and, of course, Robert Pattinson. So if you’re wondering what it was like for Emilie to film with the media frenzy surrounding Robert, or if Brosnan ever experienced the same reaction from his lady fans, now’s your chance to ask them for yourself!”
Leave your questions for the Remember Me cast in the comments to their post HERE!
 
The fact that Robert Pattinson plays the lead in Allen Coulter's 'Remember Me' shouldn't imply that this romantic-drama is anything like the obsessed-about 'Twilight' franchise. On the contrary, with racier scenes (watch an exclusive clip of Pattinson's shower scene with co-star Emilie de Ravin) and darker, adult themes, 'Remember' is a welcome distraction from vampire and werewolf love spats.
In the film, Pattinson is Tyler, a troubled young man whose rebellious response to a family suicide aggravates an already strained relationship with his father (Pierce Brosnan). He begins to change his outlook, however, when he meets and falls in love with Ally (Emilie de Ravin) -- whose father (Chris Cooper) is, unbeknownst to her, somehow linked to Tyler. And as their affair intensifies, so does the weight of untold secrets until, eventually, it threatens to tear them apart.
