What is Twilight all about? 

the official summary from Summit Entertainment

Bella Swan has always been a little bit different. Never one to run with the crowd, Bella never cared about fitting in with the trendy, plastic girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother remarried and sent Bella to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she didn't expect much of anything to change.

But things do change when she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen. For Edward is nothing like any boy she's ever met. He's nothing like anyone she's ever met, period. He's intelligent and witty, and he seems to see straight into her soul.

In no time at all, they are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance - unorthodox because Edward really isn't like the other boys. He can run faster than a mountain lion. He can stop a moving car with his bare hands. Oh, and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. That's right - vampire. But he doesn't have fangs - that's just in the movies. And he doesn't drink human blood, though Edward and his family are unique among vampires in that lifestyle choice.

To Edward, Bella is that thing he has waited 90 years for - a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. Somehow or other, they will have to manage their unmanageable love.

But what will they do when Laurent and James, the Cullens' mortal vampire enemies, come to town, looking for Bella? A modern, visual, and visceral Romeo and Juliet story of the ultimate forbidden love affair - between vampire and mortal.

Summit Entertainment is producing Twilight.

Pick a side! Whom should Bella choose? 

CAUTION: THIS SECTION CONTAINS SPOILERS

You all know that Twilight sets the stage for the romantic dilemma Bella faces throughout the rest of the series. If you could choose for her, who would you pick? Edward or Jacob? Why? Who's hotter, more romantic, a better protector, and will be better for her in the long run? Have your say!

NOTE: This section contains information about all four books.

Whom should Bella choose?

Edward Cullen, the dazzling vampire

Samantha! says:

Jacob is okay...i aint against him at all.BUT he by no means deserves bella....BELLA AND EDWARD WAS MEANT TO BE.... but jacob cant help who he is in love with you know???

Yuuki says:

She should take Edward! They are meant for eac other

Rachel says:

I think Bella should choose Edward because he will protect her and love her better!!!

Vampirelover101 says:

I think bella should chose edward because he not like jacob! he doesn't joke about bella's safety. Not to mention he is Conpletly Hot!

Lala says:

Edward! Most definitely

Jacob Black, the hot werewolf

jacob lover says:

jacob because he treats her better and he is a great friend so they should be able to have a great relationship.Also she has more fun with jacob and he fulfills the horrible hole edward left!!!!!!!!!!!! GO JACOB!!!!!!!!!!

pumpkin says:

bella Clearly loves jacob, MORE! but, edward being a buetaful vampire destracts her, in more ways than one. so she should clearly choose JACOB!!! plus edward LEFT her! he is going to have to suffer the consiquensis "yes i know i didn't spell that right"

Wolf-fan says:

where the hell IS jacob? >:l
i haven't seen ANYTHING about the werewolves yet

i'm PISSED
just because the new trend is vampires and crap doesnt mean they have to totally blot out the wolf.
i'm not going to even bother with this movie if i dont see some damn werewolves soon >:l

kim says:

jacob because she is obviously attracted to edward because he was built so women would love him.

moodylizard says:

I'm always cold. I think I'd like a guy who could warm me up! But then, if was were a vampire myself, I guess being warm wouldn't be a priority anymore, would it.

I'm in love with a vampire... 

a review excerpt by Heather Weaver (human)

I wrote a post about my obsession with the Twilight series on my blog. Here is an excerpt, in which I explain how I got hooked on the story of Edward Cullen and Bella Swan:

As Bella became entwined in the mysterious life of her crush, Edward Cullen (an irresistibly beautiful, and dangerous vampire), so did I. By the halfway point in Twilight, I was completely hooked on the story, and I couldn't put the book down. Once the action started, it was genuinely exciting, and it didn't stop until the end. It was like the first half had been a long, slow ascent on a roller coaster, and the second half was the screaming fast, twisty-loopy part. As soon as I was done, I wanted to go again! So I went right out and bought New Moon, the second book.

New Moon seemed to follow the same slow-start-fast-finish pattern that Twilight had. I finished that off in about a week, and I'm waiting for my favorite Man In Brown to deliver Eclipse today. I'm completely in love with Edward, the powerful, gentle, protective, beautiful vampire. And the way Meyer describes him, it seems to make perfect sense that Bella would want to be with him forever, no matter what ...


When you read the books, I recommend you set aside some nice, quiet time for the last 100 pages or so, because once you get into the best part, you won't want to stop reading!

Midnight Sun: Twilight, from Edward's point of view 

Stephenie Meyer is writing the story of Twilight from Edward Cullen's point of view, and the resulting book is called "Midnight Sun."

Robert Pattinson said Meyer gave him some of Midnight Sun to read, so he could get a better idea of Edward's character for the movie.

Now, she has released Chapter One of Midnight Sun on her site. It is a draft, so it's imperfect and unedited. But it gives an exciting peek into Edward's world, and how he feels when he meets Bella Swan!

Meet one of the La Push wolf boys: Solomon Trimble as Sam Uley 

Leader of the "pack"

Solomon Trimble is playing Sam Uley. Solomon is learning how to speak a bit of the Quileute language in preparation for his role as Sam, and wants to make his part in Twilight as authentic as possible. He's also bringing along some traditional Quileute items, and his guitar. Hmmm. Will he sing for us? :-)

Why I love Twilight...

"Softly he brushed my cheek, then held my face between his marble hands. 'Be very still,' he whispered, as if I wasn't already frozen. Slowly, never moving his eyes from mine, he leaned toward me. Then abruptly, but very gently, he rested his cold cheek against the hollow at the base of my throat."

ok........ So I know that some of u are REALLY crazy about Twilight,and I would just love to say to everyone who loves Twilight, no matter to what degree, whether it's you just like the series, or you love it SOOOOO much you would die for it, "You ROCK!!!!!! And you have great taste in books!!!" And to my girls, who all wish they could marry Edward Cullen, the most perfect guy in exictence, and would die/ become a vampire themselves just to find him and be with him, I would just like to say, "There is an Edward for each and everyone of you. And when u find him, whether he is a vamp or not, I'm sure he will adore you and feel every the very same way about u as Edward did for Bella. Your Edwards are out there girls, I know they are." And I know how creepy this may sound but...... I feel like I'm kinda close to every girl who wants Edward to herself, cause I do too. I Luvs you all!!!! And Edward of course :) Oh and I agree, Twilight should totally become a religion!!! I'll be the Pope!!!
