None that I'm aware of. We've been pretty quiet lately.

thanks,

Last night when I came to work, a co-worker was reading Twilight. Turns out that she had been reading Breaking Dawn, thinking it was a good story and then someone told her that it was part of the Twilight series. So she already knows what happens in the last book but is now starting the series. :)

When shooting The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, I always felt an awareness of how many people this film would reach and as a result, knew that this film did not just belong to myself, the producers and the studio, but more so, to all of you, the fans of The Twilight Saga.
At the end of the day, after all the hard work is done, all that's left is the film itself, and your overwhelmingly positive and supportive responses have made me feel like we must have done something right. As a filmmaker, this is a rare and strange feeling of connection with an audience of which I will never forget and I thank you all for it.

And many of them were so excited and proud that they posted on their LJ pages or on facebook or wherever... and many of them posted pictures.
Now some of those girls looked good, a few looked great, and some looked REALLY bad. What is just so sad is that that same dress, which looked so amazing on Kristen, looked TERRIBLE on so many of them! And they honestly didn't see it. People do that ALL the time. They rip out pictures from magazines or print them off the internet because "Oh SHE looks so fabulous. So if I get the exact same thing, then I'll look just as fabulous as her, right? Right?!!"
Everyone is built different. Everyone looks different. Some people are pear-shaped, some are rectangles, some are hourglasses and some are circles. Someone picked out that exact dress because of how it looked on KRISTEN!!!
And then people have different skin colors and hair colors and eye colors.
I had a very good friend in college who was from India. She had the loveliest color of mocha skin and could wear tangerine and fushia and lime green and she would look AMAZING. Put those same colors on me and I looked like a ghoul! My wrap dress which flattered my long legs and small waist, pulled snug across her middle and made her full stomach look even bigger.
BECAUSE WE ARE BUILT DIFFERENT!
It makes me smack my forehead and shake my head in disgust when I see people doing that. Instead of taking inspiration and trying to EMULATE someone that they admire, they try to copy them exactly. They slap on something that they see in a picture or on a movie and walk down the street thinking "Damn, I look good."
They are so thrilled to have Rachel's haircut or Bella's dress that they don't realize that Rachel's haircut makes their face look fat or that Bella's flowy dress with an empire waist made their straight up-and-down figure look boyish.
Try to wear someone else's clothing or getting their haircut can be like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.
Anyone else get exasperated by it sometimes? Anyone?
Just my two cents. >Well, while the dress looked okay on Kristen, it was the Keds and leggings that made it---unwatchable. I'm sorry but if you are in need of an influx of a dress, get the actress to provide it. That get up with the dress just screamed bargain basement or worse. And that was only the tip of the iceberg for me and that movie. :: grrrrr :: You got an hour? <bg>
I'll give you one of the main ones: making Edward look like an evil vampire while trying to save Bella. Sorry, guys, but those days are long gone. I've read some pretty great vampire stories in the adult PNR realm and I'll tell you---they are not only compassionate, loving, and sometimes of need of a female's compassion and love---but they don't almost attack the woman they love. Seems that movies are the only ones in the dark ages. :: sigh ::
As to women wanting the exact dress---well, of course it's not going to look the same. Same goes with women getting an article out of the fan magazine and saying---I want my hair just like that. And why would they want the same dress? I mean, what happens---the girls go to the prom and say---hey, you are wearing my dress. Yeah, it's silly. Get a dress that looks good on you not look good in the magazine on the person who's wearing it (and might not even look good on her). :: sigh :: Prolific Peggy.
