Chris Weitz hoped fans would appreciate the ending of New Moon the movie but they were surprised by it!! So it looks like it’s different than the book’s!!

New Moon” director Chris Weitz seems pretty pleased with the way he ended the second movie in the “Twilight Saga.” But the fans who have already gotten a chance to see the movie are still reeling from Weitz’s directorial decision. Not to give too much away, but some said it wasn’t the conclusion they’d expected.

“I was really surprised by the ending, the way they kept us hanging like that,” Jordana de la Cruz from Rhode Island told MTV News, after seeing a midnight screening in New York. “I hated it, but I liked it at the same time.” …

Ashley Greene reveals that just as her co-star Jamie Campbell Bower, thinks that Tim Burton would be a great director for “Breaking Dawn”. Read and watch more below!

In 2007, Jamie Campbell Bower co-starred in Tim Burton’s “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.” A few years later, after being cast as a vampire in “New Moon,” the young British actor has not forgotten the director who gave him his big break, telling MTV News that Burton would be the ideal man to helm the final “Twilight” installment, “Breaking Dawn.”

What does Burton think about that idea? When we caught up with the director at the opening of a retrospective of his work at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, he was flattered.

“He’s being biased, because I worked with him on ‘Sweeney Todd,’ ” Burton laughed. “But that’s nice to hear. In case potential jobs run out, it’d be nice to know someone.”

Forks the New Moon & Eclipse movies isn’t the real Forks in Washington. But, as a celebration for the New Moon release, several events will take place there and in Port Angeles and La Push!

“Twi-hard” fans of the Twilight movies will know that the last two films of the blockbuster series were filmed in the Vancouver area, but they also know that it’s just a movie stand-in for the story’s true setting: Forks, Washington.

In the coming days, fans who care to visit Forks, Port Angeles and La Push will have a chance to participate in all things Twilight — and to take in the much-anticipated release of New Moon in the theatre where Bella and her duo of crushes, Jacob Black and Mike Newton, attend a movie in the global best-seller. …

Robert Pattinson prefers how ‘New Moon‘’s breakup scene plays on the film after a question asked by a fan which Kristen Stewart couldn’t answer.

Twilighters love Stephenie Meyer, and so do the stars of “New Moon.” Which made it all the more interesting recently when MTV solicited questions from the fans over at the Movies Blog, and one of them seemed innocent enough: Which scene came out better in the November 20 film than it was written in the novel?

“I don’t know,” Kristen Stewart said when we hit her with the question last week. “I can’t — that would be a really presumptuous thing to say. I couldn’t go there.”

“There are some difficult bits,” Robert said of the novel-to-movie translation. “The breakup scene was a lot longer in the book, and it’s a very subtle scene. I mean, it’s such a weird line which Edward’s walking and how Bella’s reacting to him. And in the script, as well, it was very well-distilled.” …

An interesting little article by the Examiner caught my attention. Listen to this! During the admissions interview for Oxford University, students were asked, “Why might it be useful for an English student to read the Twilight series?”. So reading twilight is truly educational! How about that!

The popular book series, Twilight has now made it to the halls of Oxford University.  The Telegraph is reporting that students applying to Oxford University were asked a question about Twilight by Stephenie Meyer during the rigorous admissions process.

Here is the question that was asked in the interviews for applicants in English Literature:

“Why might it be useful for an English student to read the Twilight series?” 

Whether or not you are a fan of the series, how might you answer the question?

MTV has posted yet another interview from this year’s official Twilight Convention with Edi Gathegi in which he talks about the special screening of “New Moon” with Stephenie Meyer, wearing shoes as a vampire and much more.

281x211Gathegi confirmed that he’s seen a cut of “New Moon” and said it follows Stephenie Meyer’s novel closely. “That’s the whole point of having Stephenie Meyer as a consultant for all the books, because you know she has final approval and final say and they’re not going to do anything to upset the fan base,” he told the audience. “You guys are the driving force behind this entire thing.”

The 30-year-old spent about three weeks on the “New Moon” set and was met with a few happy changes from the first film. For one, the cloudy red contact lenses used to give the vampires their signature scarlet stares were replaced with sleeker models more closely resembling regular contacts. For another, Gathegi finally got to wear shoes. “God bless Chris Weitz,” he said. “In “Twilight’ we didn’t have shoes, because in the book they don’t have shoes — you know, nomadic vampires don’t have shoes. And I was cold, I was froze to death! But Chris was like, ‘Well, wear shoes.’ ”

By now, most Twilighters know more about Kristen Stewart, Ashley Greene, Nikki Reed and the others than their own mothers. So, with filming of “Eclipse” finally under way in Vancouver, the fanbase is excited to welcome some new blood into the vampire franchise.

With that in mind, we present this handy guide to five key actresses joining the “Twilight” saga for its third installment. Much like Bella, we can all look forward to making new friends in Forks, and tomorrow we’ll take a look at the new “Eclipse” men. But to be courteous, here are the ladies first.

Meet The Cast Of “Eclipse”

Character: Maria
Actor: Catalina Sandino Moreno

The Lowdown: Fan-favorite Jackson Rathbone has already expressed excitement over the fact that his role as Jasper Hale will be expanded greatly for the third “Twilight” film. Oscar-nominee Moreno may no longer be “Full of Grace,” but will now play a very different Maria. Described in Stephenie Meyer’s pages as being petite with a soft voice, Maria is the woman who turned Jasper into a bloodthirsty immortal when he was 20 years old in 1863. Her inclusion will play a major role in the young vampire threat that emerges throughout “Eclipse” and the likely-to-film-someday “Breaking Dawn.”

MTV: Hollywood Crush has made a list of the five things they look forward to the most in “New Moon”, “Eclipse” and “Breaking Dawn”. They sure got some epic parts from the books on that list. Here’s what they had to say.

bellacliff“New Moon” is only 13 short weeks away, “Eclipse” is shooting and just recently, there was an apparently false rumor that we would be getting two “Breaking Dawn” movies. Even though the last “Twilight” film tentatively won’t be coming out until 2011 (or 2012?), it’s hard not to keep our eyes on the last three novels in the “Twilight Saga” as they move toward hitting the big screen. In honor of our excitement over these film adaptations, we have put together a list of our top five favorite scenes we can’t wait to see (in order of importance, of course).

SPOILER ALERT! If you haven’t read anything past the very first book in Stephenie Meyer’s series, you probably should skip reading this list, run out to your nearest bookstore, and, uh … get on that!

We’d love to read which scenes you guys are looking forward to the most in “New Moon”, “Eclipse” & “Breaking Dawn”!
