It isn't just screaming tween girls who are going gaga over New Moon star Taylor Lautner – one of the onscreen werewolf's biggest fans is Oscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx.

That's what Lautner found out to his great surprise at the Twilight premiere a year ago.

"There's tons of fans and we hear all of these high pitch voices and we hear 'Rah, rah, Taylor, Taylor!'" Lautner, 17, tells George Lopez on the Thursday airing of Lopez Tonight. "All of a sudden I hear this deep voice behind me: 'Taylor, Taylor!' .... And this guy walks up to me and he goes 'Hey ... my daughter is a huge fan, and I'm a huge fan is there any way I can get a picture with you. I'm Jamie Foxx.' I was like, 'Are you kidding me? Can I get a picture with you?'"

[BellaAndEdward] Box office: 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' crosses $200 million mark

 

Nov 28 2009 05:41 PM ET




Box office: 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' crosses $200 million mark

After briefly slipping out of first place on Thanksgiving, The Twilight Saga: New Moon rose again on Friday with $17.9 million, bringing its total to $206.1 million. After just eight days in theaters, the sequel has already surpassed the $192.8 million earned last year by its predecessor during its entire theatrical run. Meanwhile, Sandra Bullock's week-old football drama The Blind Side had its best day yet on Friday, raking in $16.2 million for a $76.3 million total. That beats the pace of Bullock's summer hit The Proposal, which had only made $56.7 million of its eventual $164 million haul by its eighth day. Check back tomorrow for a full recap of the weekend box office.

[BellaAndEdward] Box office: 'Twilight: New Moon' wins first place over best Thanksgiving weekend ever

 

2009 01:19 PM ET




Box office: 'Twilight: New Moon' wins first place over best Thanksgiving weekend ever

Studio execs should give plenty of thanks to female moviegoers: Twilight: New Moon and The Blind Side led the best-ever Thanksgiving weekend at the box office by drawing women and families into theaters, while male-centric newcomers Old Dogs and Ninja Assassin only earned so-so numbers.
Following its record-breaking first weekend, first-place finisher New Moon brought in $42.5 million over the three-day (Friday through Sunday) weekend, driving its cume to a fantastic $230.7 — the sixth highest of the year, just below Star Trek ($257.7 million). Not far behind, The Blind Side came in at number two with $40.1 million by appealing to audiences who would rather watch a movie about football than stay home for a game on TV. With a $100.3 total so far, the pigskin pic is Sandra Bullock's second $100 million hit of the year after this summer's The Proposal ($164 million).
Disaster pic 2012 ($18 million) continued to perform well, beating a duo of new releases: the Robin Williams-John Travolta buddy pic Old Dogs (fourth place, $16.8 million) and the actioner Ninja Assassin (sixth place, $13.1 million). With a $24.1 million total so far, Old Dogs hasn't captured the same men-of-a-certain-age crowds that drove Travolta's Wild Hogs to a $39.7 million debut back in 2007. Meanwhile, Disney's A Christmas Carol (fifth place, $16 million) got a holiday bump, jumping 30 per cent over last weekend to a total of $105.3 million.
Specialty pics found modest success, with the animated Fantastic Mr. Fox earning $7 million Fri.-Sun. in its first wide-release weekend, and The Road grossing $1.5 million at 111 theaters.
Overall, the box office raked in an all-time high of $278 million over the five-day weekend.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4273172/1/Stitches_and_Scars

mild spoilers below... nothing that will "ruin" the story in my opinion,
but here is some spoiler space to be safe.

The thing about fanfiction is that you may have to read 20-30 fics to find one really GREAT one.  There are tons of fanfics about Bella getting sick or hurt and Edward cares for her. Some are sweet, some are mature, some are both.... some just plain suck. Finding a good one can be a challenge. Got a good one? I would love to know what it is.
------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- ------


Here are two that I found. The first (Dying For Love) I have not read so I don't know how "good" it is but the summary says she's dying so I figure he has to be caring for her at some point. I hadn't read it yet because of what the summary says, I didn't think I wanted to read a story that has her dying at the end of it so I did peak at the end of it. (Feel free to email me if you want to know whether or not she dies.)

The 2nd story (Before Her Last Breath) is also a story in which Bella is dying but you don't have to wait until the end of the story to find out if she dies, recovers or is turned.  Edward is a doctor in this story and that's how he and Bella meet. This one I have been reading and I have been enjoying it quite a bit. The story is all in Edward's point of view, however the author has a companion "story" which is not so much a sequel or story of it's own, it's "outtakes" certain chapters re-written from Bella's point of view and there is a scene from Carlisle's POV at the hospital while neither Edward nor Bella are there that fills in some blanks of the main story.


So here are the summaries and links for each story. I really recommend reading BHLB first and the outtakes of course.  If any of you decide to read it and review, please tell the auhor that RingTheBella sent you. Thanks and hope you enjoy it as much as I did.  :)


Dying For Love
Bella has 6 months to live. She decides to break out of her shell and meets Edward, someone who lives for eternity. When he tries to discover her secret, he falls in love during the process. Why won't she become a vampire for him? ExB vampires included!
Fiction Rated: T - Romance/Humor - Chapters: 50

Before Her Last Breath
Edward decides to follow Carlisle's footsteps and become a doctor when they move back to Forks. As he becomes more and more frustrated with his monotonous life, Bella is admitted with a serious illness. His life and heart will never be the same.

[BellaAndEdward] Fic of the day -- Nov 27

 

The HalfBreed    by  Athey
Alternate Universe where Edward is a half-breed human-vampire and biological son of Carlisle and Esme. The Cullens move to Forks and Edward meets Bella Swan. ExB (The first chapter is just Edward giving their backstory.)

Rated: M - Romance/Friendship
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5312362/1/The_HalfBreed


I just read through this was yesterday and liked it quite a lot.  Though it's written that as a half-breed, rather than having his skin be cooler than a human but not as cold as a vampire... instead his skin is very warm, at one point Bella thinks about how he always seems to be on the verge of getting a fever. So in this story, he was born with the mind-reading, has green eyes, can eat human food but really only seems to like fruit, once he reached full maturity, he only needs to sleep about once per week.

'New Moon' stars tweet thanks to fans

[BellaAndEdward] Taylor Lautner and James Franco: Who will be a better 'SNL' host?

 

Taylor Lautner and James Franco: Who will be a better 'SNL' host?

 
When SNL announced yesterday that James Franco and Taylor Lautner would be hosting in December, I had one thought: Man, I would love to see these two wrestle. Just kidding: I thought man, James Franco is going to obliterate poor Taylor Lautner and his biceps of teenwolf lust.
In Lautner's defense, he'll be one of the youngest hosts the show has ever had — a few months shy of his 18th birthday puts him among the 10 youngest. I'm worried that we might have a January Jones redux on our hands, though: Lautner is famous for one and only one thing, and given how much the show has struggled this season to give hosts a variety of material, that's going to make writing for him pretty tough. Might he be charismatic and nimble enough to carry it anyway? Eh…live TV has slayed far mightier foes.
Which brings us to Franco. Franco hosted last year, and he did a pretty solid job — plus he's a naturally funny guy who has been in many comedies. He's also shown himself to be a really good sport about making fun of himself, which is often what the best SNL sketches come from.
I think Franco has this locked down, PopWatchers. Maybe the question is will Lautner be a disaster, or can he hold his own?
