In the eyes of the Academy Awards, “The Hurt Locker” was the Best Picture of 2009. But a loyal army of Twilighters feel differently — and this week, they’re making their opinions known at one of Hollywood’s most visible annual conventions.

“The Twilight Saga: New Moon” has been selected for the ShoWest/Fandango Fan Choice Award, which will be presented Thursday at ShoWest’s Final Night Banquet and Award Ceremony at Bally’s and Paris Las Vegas. The Fan Choice Award was voted on by nearly 50,000 moviegoers, who were asked on Fandango to select their favorite film of 2009.

MTV has a small (and yet very cool) preview from the behind-the-scenes documentary in the ‘New Moon’ DVD.

Comcast will have The Twilight Saga: New Moon On Demand beginning at 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, March 20.

Only Comcast customers will be able to view never-before-seen commentary from director Chris Weitz on a number of favorite ‘New Moon’ scenes such as: Bella’s birthday party, Bella’s cliff dive, when Bella rescues Edward in Italy and when Bella first meets the Volturi.

When Twilight was first released on DVD last year, we made it available at 12:01 a.m. the same day it was released on DVD, which led to our biggest rental weekend as well as Twilight being the most rented movie On Demand of 2009. We anticipate a big response from the same say as DVD release of The Twilight Saga: New Moon On Demand as well. We’ll also have Twilight available on Showtime On Demand if people want to make a night out of it.

Thanks Nicole!

You can watch a preview from the exclusive director’s commentary here.

From the LA Times Blog ‘Ministry of Gossip’:

SPOILER ALERT: In “New Moon” we see a premonition of Kristen Stewart as a vampire. (In the Stephenie Meyer-penned books, Stewart’s character Bella is eventually made a vampire by Robert Pattinson’s Edward). In said vision, Stewart and Pattinson frolic and play in the woods, soaking in their undead love.

So, what would Weitz have done differently, if he had it to do it all over again?

“I wouldn’t have shot Bella running through the forest with Edward, because I’ve never been at a screening of the film in which people didn’t laugh at it,” Weitz told me. “My heart sinks every time I hear that.”

Read the everything.

**I didn’t laugh at this scene, I though it was a great surprise. Did you guys laughed?

Trailer Addict has a bonus featurette on the New Moon DVD and Blu-ray, a behind the scenes look at the score and the difficulty of fitting it into the film.

One of the most entertaining aspects of the new “Twilight Saga: New Moon” DVD and Blu-ray is the audio commentary from director Chris Weitz and his editor Peter Lambert.

During their long and funny conversation, Weitz makes a humbling revelation about one of his few regrets in the movie: the infamous moment where Aro (Michael Sheen) looks into Alice Cullen’s mind (Ashley Greene) and see the future fate of our hero Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart). What was meant as a dramatic reveal that Bella would become a vampire, and thus satisfy Aro’s wishes, drew unintentional laughter as audiences observed Bella and Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) seemingly skipping through the forest in slow motion.
