August 10th

Teen Choice Awards
Don't forget the Teen Choice Awards are tonight. Why do you care, you are not a teenager? Well the cast of Twilight/New Moon will be on. :) You can catch the cast at 8/7 pacific on FOX.

BANDSLAM
For those of you who would like to see an exclusive preview of New Moon, you must see BANDSLAM. The movie can't be all that bad, I think I will be doing some mother/daughter time and take Sam to see it. She will like it. Anyone care to double?

The movie comes on the Friday, August 14th. If you do not want to see the movie, I am sure someone will have the preview on You Tube soon enough. :) I just love technology.

Eclipse News
Catherine Hardwicke on the recasting of Victoria.

"Twilight" director Catherine Hardwicke told us at the Teen Choice Awards that Bryce Dallas Howard was an actress they initially wanted to cast as the redhead vampire Victoria. But, according to Hardwicke, the "Twilight" role was probably too small for Bryce back then. It then went to Rachel Lefevre, a less proven newcomer. But as everyone knows, Bryce has now replaced Rachel as Victoria, for whatever reason -- bad timing, another movie -- that you choose to believe. Hey, you don't think they made the "Eclipse" role bigger to interest Bryce? Anyway, Cathy's new "crazy modern" thriller film based on Hamlet" sounds pretty darn cool. And there's gonna be great music too. You gotta love the idea of Hamlet as a young Kurt Cobain. And it's sweet that Catherine feels badly about Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson becoming such huge overnight sensations and being thrust into the limelight the way the poor kids have been. "I mean, part of me feels kind of guilty because they are both such indie spirits," Hardwicke reveals. "They are really artists, they like making meaningful art, interesting art."

New Eclipse Cast Member
Its official! Jodelle has been cast in the Twilight Saga, The 3rd Film, Eclipse! she will playing The Newborn Vampire! We are really excited for her. How so many of you had petitioned for Jodelle to be cast as Jane, and now she gets to work alongside the cast and Dakota Fanning who was cast as Jane for New Moon.

If you ask me, Jodelle looks a little young. She like she is maybe 10, 12 tops! I thought Bree was 15 or 16.

Filming Begins on August 17th
I just wanted to remind everyone filming for Eclipse begins on August 17th. They have already started their rehearsals, just not the filming.
