The first teaser trailer for the upcoming, and final, installment of the massively successful Twilight series is online today. It can be viewed here.

The film, starring Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner, is set to hit theaters on November 16.

Apparently, nothing she needs to worry about.

The couple is separated as Kristen Stewart films for ”Snow White and the Huntsman“ in London, but, despite rumors, her vampire beau appears to be remaining faithful.

On Friday, pictures surfaced of Robert Pattinson leaving a bistro, La Poubelle, in Los Angeles with Sarah Roemer, which led, inevitably, to a flurry of concerned fans. The truth is, sometimes people in relationships are around the opposite sex, and it doesn’t necessarily mean they’re cheating. And, reportedly, the two were hanging out within a group. A source present at the club said “It was all very innocent. There were no signs that he was cheating on Kristen with Sarah or that anything romantic was going on”.

So, fans of the couple need not concern themselves with the fate of their relationship — yet.

“The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1,” which premiered on Friday earned $283.5 million internationally and $139.5 million domestically for its first weekend. This amount falls behind only the second installment of the “Twilight” series franchise, “New Moon,” which premiered in 2009 with an opening of $142.8 million at home.

The first of the two parts of “Breaking Dawn” follows Bella Swan and her vampire beau, Edward Cullen, as they get married and are almost immediately faced with the impending doom of Edward’s spawn growing at a rapid rate within Bella.

This weekend’s revenues are as follows:

1. “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1,” $139.5 million
2. “Happy Feet 2,” $22 million
3. “Immortals,” $12.3 million
4. “Jack and Jill,” $12 million
5. “Puss in Boots,” $10.7 million
6. “Tower Heist,” $7 million
7. “J. Edgar,” $5.9 million
8. “A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas,” $2.9 million
9. “In Time,” $1.7 million
10. “The Descendants,” $1.2 million

Long story short: if you liked all the other “Twilight” movies then you will probably like this one. If you never liked it before, this movie isn’t going to change your views. Twihards beware: I am one of the latter. I have seen them all, and the only good movie in the entire series was probably the second one. Oh…and I’ll come clean and announce that if I’m going to be on any team then I’m on team Jacob. All the scenes without Edward were the very best.

Plot time: if you read the books there are no surprises. Stefanie Meyers must have kept director Bill Condon on a short leash. There was no deviation from the written word. I almost feel like I could read the book side-by-side with the movie dialogue. Bella Swann (Kristen Stewart) is planning for her wedding with vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson). Sparks are heated between the vampires and the werewolves over whether turning Bella into a vampire breaks the ancient treaty of doing no harm to humans. But it’s not happening yet. Edward and Bella decide to have a honeymoon before the big change.

The vampire allegory for a pure virginal marriage comes through when the happy couple completely ignore birth control and end up with an “uh oh.” Bella becomes pregnant with vampire spawn and we are faced with another allegory for the debate for life vs. choice. Edward wants the baby gone before it can kill Bella, but Bella wants the baby to live even if she dies bringing it into the world. This sparks a civil war in the werewolf tribe. The current leader sees the baby as a threat to their pack. Now Jacob has to make the choice to stay with his kind or renege to save Bella.

The story is enough to make you cringe and/or laugh, but it’s the film style that really takes “Breaking Dawn” over the top. There were very few special effects. When there were, they were laughably out of place. A fuzzy dream sequence here, angry red vision there. If they appeared more often then they wouldn’t seem like such afterthoughts being thrown between the frames. The choice of music had the same affect. Whose idea was it to play hippie stoner music for the love montage scenes?

I think Condon tried his best, but teenage monster love is a little outside his purview. This is the guy who did “Dream Girls” and wrote in “Chicago.” I would be interested in seeing if turning “Twilight” into a sing-along would make it any better. Condon has also done a lot of movies I’ve never even heard of, which is why probably wanted to tack his name onto a huge movie franchise even if it’s bad. The most stylistically beautiful scene in the whole movie was a red and white wedding nightmare Bella had. It was visually stunning and it stands out. I could see musical theatre written all over it. I wouldn’t have been surprised if they burst into song about the dangers and delights of being married to a vampire. Doesn’t that sound funny?

This was the Condon’s chance to take this movie to the next level and he scaled it back. Remember how much fun it was counting how many times Jacob took off his shirt in the last movie? Well he only took his shirt off once! The rest of the werewolves were fully clothed the entire time too. If I’m going to sit through 120 minutes of a “Twilight” movie, I at least expect some eye candy. But no…this was a purity driven film where the only action we got was the haphazard sex scenes that Pattinson clearly didn’t get into. I’m telling you the chemistry is gone.

I know the Twihards out there are going to hate me for hating on this, but I tell you now that this is the worst movie of the four so far. Go see it for yourself, but remember you won’t ever get those two hours back.

Some spoilers included!

At long last, the finale of the “Twilight” franchise has finally arrived onto the big screen. This time, Bill Condon (Dreamgirls in 2006) takes the hot seat of as director.

From a fangirl standpoint, this is the moment that Twilight fans have been waiting for: Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) get married, after a series of setbacks and courtships. The set design of the wedding made it a particularly romantic vibe with white flowers draping from trees and just around the garden, as well as some familiar faces; the friends and family of the bride and groom. Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) whom we see after the wedding is a happy friend for both Bella and Edward, until Bella tells him that she will remain a human when she goes on a honeymoon with Edward. Dismayed, Jacob tries to stop Bella from going with Edward as he presumes that her now husband could potentially kill her. Edward and Bella head to Rio De Janeiro, anyway, for their honeymoon.

In the two-hour duration of the film, not a lot happens. What is covered in this film is actually quite limited compared to the previous films where the movie features plenty of scenes that took place in a variety of locations. In Breaking Dawn Part 1, after Rio De Janeiro, most scenes just took place in the Cullens’ house and the forest where the werewolves can be found.

The film is all about Edward and Bella worrying about their future together as husband and wife, as the werewolves go against Bella and Jacob tries to protect his friend.

Bella eventually gets pregnant with a half vampire, half human baby. Tension arises between Edward and Jacob — again.

The bigger Bella’s womb grows, the sicker she becomes. The acting between Stewart and the rest of the Cullens can be somewhat comedic at times, and I thought that Condon executed that well. For example, the speeches at the weddings given by the bride and groom’s family friends, as well as Bella coming up with names for their future child were pretty funny scenes.

Unlike in the previous Twilight films where the werewolves’ scenes and actions were fast and furious and strongly captured in the screen, Breaking Dawn Part 1 does not really give that same effect. The werewolves were not the main focus of the film and didn’t have a ton of screen time.

The last scene in the movie shows Bella’s eyes turning red, and it brings a lot of mixed messages for the audience. The director certainly did an awesome job on this, as he keeps the viewers guessing how this will turn out in the next film.

When all is said and done, fans that have supported “The Twilight Saga” from the books to the movies will be in for a treat. As Taylor Lautner has said in a promotional interview, “if you read Breaking Dawn, you’ll most likely see it come to life on this film!”

Part one of Breaking Dawn is opening in theaters this Friday, and it highlights the series of events that lead to Bella’s inevitable transformation into a vampire. But, according to Kristen Stewart, the change is not all that glamorous.

Stewart, who has played the protagonist, Bella, in all of the film adaptations, complained about the amber-colored contacts the actors playing vampires are required to wear. She said “That is one thing I can’t wait to say goodbye to. They just kill you.”

The actress expressed her satisfaction with her character finally becoming a vampire, saying “The whole vampire thing – I wasn’t excited to be white and all that. I was really more excited to finally get her there because she wants it so bad.”

Hollywood will forever have Kristen Stewart’s black-and-white-checked pair of Vans’ footprints, right along with Robert Pattinson’s and Taylor Lautner’s marks.

The three stars of “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn,” coming out in theaters nationwide on November 18, appeared in front of fans with Jimmy Kimmel, the emcee of the event, and “Twilight” author Stephenie Meyer on November Thursday outside the famous Grauman’s Chinese Theater.

After waving to the fans craning their necks to catch a glimpse of Lautner’s muscles and Stewart and Pattinson’s relationship, the stars pressed their handprints into blocks of cement. As the ceremony came to an end, the Los Angeles Times quoted Stewart saying, “I’ve never been so enamored by this business, Hollywood. … I think this is the coolest thing I’ve ever done in my life.”

The leading actors and author of the franchise took this opportunity to thank their fans for their growing support throughout the phenomenon. After today, fans can walk through the streets of Hollywood to find the hardened handprints and footprints of their idols.

As the long-lasting nationwide craze continues, the stars of the Twilight Saga are under constant scrutiny. As a result, anything Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner say about each other while out of character is recorded for fans’ viewing enjoyment. Thanks to MTV, some favorite quotes have been compiled in an easy to access format for readers.

Highlights include:

“She’s more stubborn than me in a lot of ways. She really stands up for what she thinks is right. It’s generally on the same page with what I think is right, but I never have the balls to do it.” — Rob on Kristen during “New Moon”

“She looked amazing. I really didn’t do anything much but just stand there.” — Rob on Kristen in her “Breaking Dawn” wedding dress

“I didn’t see Taylor until just a little bit before we started shooting ['New Moon']. When he came back, I had the same reaction as everybody else. I was like, ‘Jeez, now I have to go to the gym!’ ” — Rob on Taylor’s “New Moon” abs

“I don’t feel like kissing you!” — Rob to Kristen at the MTV Movie Awards

“It was really fun to see Kristen try and act all tough, and she’s a vampire and she’s chucking me across the yard into trees. It was funny.” — Taylor on Kristen throwing him around in “Breaking Dawn”

“He’s really buff! He definitely is. It took him a lot of time.” — Kristen on Taylor

“It’s just totally false … Rob and I are good friends.” — Kristen on rumored relationship with Rob

Robert Pattinson is set to record his first album. Pattinson has already shown some of his musical talent. He has two songs on the original “Twilight” soundtrack including “Never Think” (co-written with Sam Bradley) and “Let Me Sign.”

His music is not pop, but rather has a more guitar-based and indie sound. Pattinson plays the guitar, but is working on learning to play the piano and horns as well.

He plans to work on the album during his time off before returning to promote “Breaking Dawn.”

The posters for “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn” have been revealed.

In the first of two parts to finish the series: “Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson), plus those they love, must deal with the chain of consequences brought on by a marriage, honeymoon, and the tumultuous birth of a child, which brings an unforeseen and shocking development for Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner).”

The first poster features Bella and Edward locked in an embrace, while the second poster features a solitary Jacob.

Part One comes out in November.

NEW YORK — The premiere of “Water For Elephants” turned NYC into a Circus. Fans camped out in NYC for hours just to get a glimpse of Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon. Rob and Reese talked to us about the love they have for their fans as well as for their animal co-stars during the New York Premiere.

The film which hit theaters on April 22, is based on Sara Gruen’s novel of the same name and is directed by Francis Lawrence. The film tells the story of Jacob Jankowski (Robert Pattinson), a veterinary student, who abandons his studies after his parents are killed and joins a traveling circus as their vet. While traveling with the circus, he falls for Marlena, (Reese Witherspoon) an equestrian star married to August (Christoph Waltz), the cruel head animal trainer. Jacob also meets Rosie, an untrainable elephant and the only hope for this third-rate traveling show. The film tells the tale of forbidden love, passion, tragedy, joy, betrayal and aging. Some critic have compared the feel of the film to 1997′s Titanic.

NEW YORK — While “Water for Elephants” will be released everywhere on April 22, the highly anticipated film’s stars, including Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon, showed up at the movie’s premiere Sunday in New York City this weekend

Witherspoon recently told the Los Angels Times about shooting with circus animals for the film, “I have anxiety. I get nervous, and I shake,” and she further explained that the night before shooting with the elephant, “I didn’t sleep, and I literally shook and shook and shook. … But the performances with the elephant were really magical for me. Against my better instincts I decided to ride the elephant with no harness, with no safety equipment. It was pretty great.”

“Twilight” star Robert Pattinson was shooting over the weekend for the upcoming film “Water For Elephants,” which is out on April 22.

Pattinson is starring as Jacob Jankowski, a veterinarian-in-training who takes a position with the circus after the death of his parents.

There will be some kissing between Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon.

“Twilight” star Robert Pattinson, 24, showed off a new red hair at the Golden Globes on Sunday.

The actor told Access Hollywood, “It’s a different color in ‘Twilight’ than it is in ‘Water for Elephants,’ so I had to do a rush dye job. Just like some mousse. Isn’t it amazing?”

The picture of the highly anticipated “Twilight: Breaking Dawn” honeymoon sex scene has been released. The picture shows Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson) together on their wedding night.

Recently, Pattinson told MTV, “It’s always awkward, in a way, doing it with anybody, but at the same time … it really depends on how it’s staged and stuff. It’s like doing Twister.”

“Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1″ comes out November 18.

As we previously reported, the honeymoon scene of Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson shooting “Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn” in Brazil were leaked last week and got removed but EW.com got the pictures of them.

It is kind of hard to tell if the pictures from the honeymoon scene but we hope you will enjoy them!

“The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” DVD is apparently consumer-friendly. It has the commentary feature, which focuses on Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and series author Stephenie Meyer. And its photo gallery will entertain the Twilight fans a lot with a lot of fight scenes between Edward and Jacob, a behind-the-scenes documentary, music videos of the songs from the movie, and the film’s extended and deleted scenes.

The fans can fully gear up for “Breaking Dawn” by enjoying the DVD!

Video of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart shooting the “Breaking Dawn” honeymoon scene was leaked the Internet on Thursday and quickly removed.

The scene was shot in Brazil and showed that Bella and Edward kneeling on a beach and talking before making out.

But don’t you fear — or go ahead and be disappointed — because Summit Entertainment said everything will be kept PG-13.

I am not a Twi-hard. I am not a Twilighter, a Twi-fan or even a Twi-mom, given I have no children. I am not a variation on any of those titles. But I am also not a hater. But in a world of film critics who love to hate Twilight, I stand apart. I am a huge fan of the books and by connection a tentative fan of the films. As this is an anomaly in film critic-dom, I feel it’s necessary to share my findings and my regrettably unique perspective — that being that I was probably one of few critics not going into “Twilight: Eclipse” completely ready to hate it and one of the few fans not going in to deify it.

The notes I took during the film read much like the truncated exclamations that punctuate the Twilight books — “Campy,” “Thrilling,” “Sexy,” “Scary.” But the one word that preceded more nouns than any other was simply “Better.” No one can say that the Twilight films, separately or together, make a completely respectable piece of art. But they’re getting better.

David Slade takes the helm on the latest film in the franchise and with his background in the horror genre (“Hard Candy”) brings back the campy feel that made the original “Twilight” lovable in its own way. This isn’t the gold-flecked, Italian painting style that we saw in New Moon. We aren’t watching a series of sappy, dialogue-less montages set to a soundtrack of Muse tunes. “Eclipse” brings back the dark, (and yet, somehow lighter with more quippy one-liners and less vampiric, love-lorn brooding) sopping wet Forks, Washington readers fell in love with in 2007.

The greatest improvement in Eclipse is the writing. Slade thankfully got rid of all the pain-drenched kissing and whiny declarations of love. He replaced it with (at times) witty dialogue, and what’s more, he used LINES FROM THE BOOK. What a revolutionary idea. As “Eclipse” was my favorite book, it pleased me to no end that the tent and bedroom scenes were left verbally in tact. After all, this why we go to see movies made from our favorite books in the first place — to see the complete incarnation of the scenes we’ve imagined a thousand times, without any interference from less-than-stellar screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg.

But Slade doesn’t just succeed by sticking to the books — he weaves in themes that are absent from the books but completely fitting. This is a relieving change of pace, especially when you’re watching a film where you’re certain there won’t be any real surprises. Slade knows his strengths, too. He gives Oscar-nominee Anna Kendrick the spotlight to deliver a, in the hands of a less-talented actress then Kendrick, generic graduation speech that draws uncomfortable parallels between Bella, who is about to become a vampire, and other normal teenagers (“This is our time to make mistakes, because nothing is permanent.” Well, except that whole undead thing).

The film has an air of self-deprication that saves it in many scenes. Slade gave the characters the freedom to make fun of themselves, which alleviated so much unnecessary tension. He did this primarily through one-liners that smacked the characters back in place just as they were about to head down a path of overly-moody dialogue.

“Oh, believe me, I want to,” Edward (Robert Pattinson) says, cracking a smile after denying Bella (Kristen Stewart) sex before marriage. The moment needed a lift, especially when trying to convince audiences that two people in love shouldn’t make love is a hard sell.

“I kissed Bella,” Jacob (Taylor Lautner) growls at Charlie (Billy Burke). But then he falters. “….and she broke her hand. Punching my face. It was a little misunderstanding.”

“I’m a VIRGIN!” Bella exclaims to Charlie during one of the best scenes of the film where Charlie and Bella have “The Talk.”

But it’s not all one-liners. Slade doesn’t sacrifice emotional intensity. At the climax of the film when the furious, red-eyed vampire Riley Biers (Xavier Samuels) growls “You’re dead” at Edward, you believe him.

Slade also centers much of the film around newborn vampire Riley, who was virtually nonexistent in the book. Riley, a Forks native, plays the right hand man of “Eclipse”s villain, Victoria. Shortly after she turned him, she sent him off to rally a vampire army that would take on the Cullen clan. “I will end the Cullen clan,” he says, flashing his sharp new vampire teeth. Slade draws a comparison between the story of Riley and that of Jasper Hale, who had a similar beginning to his vampire life. Unlike Riley, Jasper and his hokey southern accent made it out of his first bad vampire relationship alive. There is, however, an unnecessary and unsettling scene in Jasper’s flashback where he kills a newborn vampire who couldn’t have been more than fourteen years old.

Some other tid-bits that Twilight fans (who aren’t going to read this before they see the movie anyway, because they’ve all been lined up outside the theaters since yesterday morning) will be glad to know — the sparkle effect is tasteful and rarely used, and the accompanying wind chime sound effect is noticeably, and thankfully, absent. Jacob has his shirt off for most of the film. This will be a relief to fans and critics alike, since fans will appreciate his abs and critics will appreciate not having to see him take off his shirt at every potentially quivery moment. And there is a lot of making out. That’s all I have to say about that (to borrow a line from a much better movie).

If you’re not waiting in line at this very moment to see “Eclipse,” give it a shot. It’s better than the first two and is at least worth it for the action scenes.

Just in case Lady GaGa and Robert Pattinson fans need another way to obsess, their biographies are now being released in comic book form.

“Fame: Lady Gaga” and “Fame: Robert Pattinson,” published by Bluewater Productions, document the stars’ path to fame. In Pattinson’s case, it’s the journey from obscure stage acting in England to pasty-skinned, bed-headed vampire. And in GaGa’s case, it’s growing from a cranky, plain-looking (anyone see her on “Boiling Points”?) nightclub singer into the bizarre pop icon we can’t ignore today.

Comic book biographies might seem odd, but Bluewater has done the same for  Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Sarah Palin, Opah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Nelson Mandela, and Barbara Walters.

“Fame: Lady GaGa” and “Fame: Robert Pattinson” will be available in comic book stores and on Amazon.com June 9.

Rumors about Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are nothing new.

But two two young stars really haven’t addressed the rumors in public before. That was, until, they dropped by “The Oprah Winfrey Show” on Thursday.

“Kristen’s pregnant,” Pattinson joked. And Stewart responded: “He really loves to shock people because he thinks it’s funny. No, we’ve actually had this conversation. He’s having the baby.”

Well, at least they’re talking about it. They did not, however, confirm or deny, once and for all, whether or not they’re romantic.

“I’m obsessed with my cat,” Stewart said. “[We] have a very Edward-and-Bella relationship. It’s, like, very co-dependent with my cat.”

Taylor Lautner was there too.

“Remember Me” is many things. It’s depressing. It’s emotional. It’s funny. It’s a love story to New York. Did I say it was depressing?

But once I overcame the desire to jump off a bridge after watching this movie, I realized it actually wasn’t bad. “Remember Me” follows Tyler Hawkins (Robert Pattinson), a college student in New York City who has serious daddy issues and is haunted by his brother’s suicide. Enter Ally Craig (Emilie de Ravin), Hawkins’ quirky, independent classmate. Hawkins’ best friend, and the film’s comedic relief, Aidan (Tate Ellington) discovers that Craig is the daughter of Neil Craig (a brilliant Chris Cooper), a cop who pounded a little bit on Hawkins and sent him to jail. In a very “She’s All That” twist, Aidan dares Hawkins to ask her out, and Hawkins agrees.

So begins a tender romance between Craig and Hawkins, where they try to mend each others’ wounds (Ally has a dark past as well) while flirting enough to keep the Twihards salivating. It’s hard to remember that the looming secret of the initial dare is bound to come out when the movie skips to other interesting plot lines.

Hawkins shares an endearing relationship with his little sister, Caroline (Ruby Jerins), who is plagued by artistic ability and a lack of social skills. One of the most heartbreaking scenes in the movie belongs to her when her classmates play a prank on her at a slumber party. Craig leaves home to live with Hawkins following a domestic violence occurrence with her dad (though she lives with Hawkins and Aidan for months — in Manhattan, no less, which is not cheap — and seemingly has no job or other friends, the issues of grocery bills and rent never come up). And many times, Hawkins’ strained relationship with his super-successful father (Pierce Brosnan) takes center stage.

Director Allen Coulter does his best work in the everyday scenes. Coulter manages to make Hawkins and Aidan’s repulsive apartment look beautiful in its disarray. The chemistry between Pattinson and de Ravin sings in the simple (and frequent) love scenes. Pattinson holds his own in passionate scenes with acting giants Brosnan and Cooper.

Just when you think things are tidying up nicely, the movie drops a twist ending in your lap which you will either love or hate. Surprisingly enough, I loved it, even though I know I should probably hate it. The reason I loved it, since you asked, is because three days after I saw the movie, I couldn’t get it out my head, which, according to the title, is accurate. “What would I have done?” I ask myself. “How could’ve he done things differently? Why did it happen that way?” Just know that, in the end, what happened, in a way, had to happen. Any other ending would have been untrue to the story. Hate me for that, if you will. But keep it to the comments section.

All in all, Robert Pattinson broods more convincingly here than in “Twilight.” Emily de Ravin is captivating. Pierce Brosnan is hateable. And the movie is, as it claims to be, memorable.

"Remember Me," the upcoming romantic drama starring Robert Pattinson (“Twilight”) and Emilie de Ravin (“LOST”), follows Tyler (Pattinson) a rebellious young man who has a tense relationship with his father (Pierce Brosnan). Tyler feels alone until he meets Ally (De Ravin) through a twist of fate. Tyler and Ally find happiness and comfort together; however, secrets threaten to tear them apart. "Remember Me" hits theaters March 12, but until then, short clips have been released to whet our appetites.

The first clip shows Pattinson and De Ravin in an Indian restaurant. Ally exhibits a refreshing carpe diem attitude by ordering her dessert before her entr©e. After watching Ally order dessert first, with an adorably confused look Tyler asks, "Is that a political statement or a medical condition perhaps?

Though the clip is under a minute and a half, it successfully shows a developing connection between Tyler and Ally. The couple smoothly engages in witty and surprisingly deep repartee, extinguishing fears that Pattinson would deliver annoyingly monotone dialogue as in many "Twilight" scenes.

The second clip opens in an apartment with Tyler unhurriedly washing dishes. Somehow washing dishes leads to, as Ally calls it, "that playful, ‘You got me all wet’ part."

Viewers expectantly bite their lower lips, just waiting for Ally and Tyler to kiss as they wrestle for control of the faucet. But alas the clip stops with the two breathlessly staring at one another, acutely aware of their proximity.

The interaction between Ally and Tyler is natural. Pattinson’s breathtaking smile is irresistible, and we see a lot of it in this scene. Likewise, De Ravin’s rapturous laughter is charming.

Pattinson shows audiences another facet of his acting ability in "Remember Me." Okay, so he’s already one of the hottest actors in Hollywood, but his role as Tyler feels more genuine than Edward Cullen in "Twilight" or Salvador Dali in "Little Ashes." Tyler is more light and playful, and less intense and brooding than Pattinson’s previous roles. Tyler’s emotions and interactions with Ally are preciously convincing, leaving little doubt that Pattinson will be seen in more romantic comedies — if for no other reason than his smile.

The third "Remember Me" clip shows Ally and Tyler, who appear to have just attended a carnival. Ally puts a giant stuffed panda into a cab. Tyler leans in for the kiss, and she pulls away. Is she nuts?!

Tyler shifts uncomfortably and puzzles, "So dessert first. For fear of asteroid, yes. But, umm, kissing a guy you seem to be attracted to, at least before driving off into the unknown New York City night alongside a panda you’ve only just met, no? Great."

Ally hesitates a moment before kissing him. It is a quick, somewhat strange encounter. However, the pair’s passion is evident in the way they respond to each other, and that jittery excitement of a first kiss resonates.

Pattinson and De Ravin’s chemistry sizzles. A mouthwatering cast, witty dialogue, intense family drama and harsh reality — "Remember Me" is the romantic comedy to see this March.

A lot of things were going on yesterday. Oprah was announcing the end of her daytime talk show. Sarah Palin was touring the country, promoting her new book and jabbing at Obama’s policies at every turn. Surely, Taylor Swift was walking around somewhere telling someone that she wasn’t dating Taylor Lautner.

But ask most any girl under the age of 16 (and their moms, for that matter) what November 20 meant to them, and they’d tell you one thing: "New Moon."

At midnight last night, girls were lining up at theaters all around the world to catch the first glimpse of the sequel. Would it include all the important parts from the book? they wondered. Will the special effects be cool? Will there be enough Edward?

In the interest of full disclosure, I’ll admit I was asking myself the same things as I walked into the theater. And in the end, I was not disappointed.

Catherine Hardwicke’s "Twilight" was lacking in these ways: there was stilted dialogue, awkward special effects and some funny scenes that weren’t meant to be funny. Director Chris Weitz transitioned the cold, awkward world of "Twilight" into a warm, emotional and dynamic "New Moon."

Screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg seems to have taken a little more time with this script, as the banter between the characters feels natural. She leaves the "lion and the lamb" quotes in the book where they belong.

The movie touches on almost every important scene in the book, which will please die-hard (or Twi-hard) fans. The movie moves quickly, giving about 15 minutes to process every intense emotion that Stephenie Meyer spent 100 pages talking about, so it can feel a bit rushed. But when you realize that the movie is over two hours long, you re-think that assessment.

The only part of the film that was seriously lacking was the wolf pack. Only two of the four have any serious build, and if you’re going to spend half the movie walking around shirtless, you need to at least get rid of the muffin top. Not to mention the fact that the wolf transformations are by turns incredibly realistic and incredibly…not. The wolves sometimes look fierce and other times, look like cartoons, which is a big disappointment if you’ve seen "The Golden Compass." And there’s an unforgivable sequence where wolf pack leader Sam Uley jumps off of a cliff and you feel like you’re watching an animation from the "Tomb Raider" computer game you had as a kid.

Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner have incredible chemistry. Kristen plays the broken Bella very well, and Lautner exudes the warmth of his character. Plus, he’s not bad to look at either. In the end, your heart breaks when he begs her to stay, and the most loyal Edward fans wonder if maybe they wouldn’t choose Jacob instead.

But in the end, the movie brings you back to Edward and Bella, as it should. It ends on a well-deserved cliff-hanger, leaving the Twi-hards squealing until next June, when the third installment, "Eclipse," is scheduled for release.

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart (Media credit: KCSPresse / Splash News Online)

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner arrived in Paris on Monday and checked into a luxurious hotel before going out for a late dinner where they met up with Fergie, People reported.

They did a press event on Tuesday and got ready to leave for the next stop on their European “New Moon” press tour.

But Robert and Kristen were among the last to leave.

“[Pattinson and Stewart] were the last ones to leave the terminal to board the plane,” one photographer on the scene told People. “Out on the tarmac, he took her hand, like young lovers. They stopped and looked at each other, their plane, the scene. They seemed very calm, in love. They continued holding hands boarding the plane.”

Let the comments begin.

Forget the wolves. Forget the Volturi. This little snippet reminds us of just why we are counting down the days to November 20. It’s why we’ve bought our advanced tickets. It’s why we loved the books in the first place. Edward and Bella, plain and simple. So before you press play, take a deep breath and make sure you’re not holding anything spillable.

Enjoy.

Welcome to “New Moon” heaven. Team Edward and Team Jacob will both be pleased to see that over 80 new stills from “New Moon” have been released, just over a month before the movie’s release, in the form of the New Moon Movie Companion. And God bless the Twihard who scanned her copy so none of us would have to go out and drop $10 on Amazon.

See the best ones below.

Black Island Farm in Syracuse, Utah has a corn maze. It’s not an uncommon sight. The kids love it.

Surprised they allow this kinda thing in Utah. (Media credit/Sky News)

The words “Team Edward” and “Team Jacob” are even carved below their mugs.

The farmer used GPS technology to design the maze, which sits on a 400-acre farm that grows carrots, onions, cabbage, corn, pumpkins and other squash, according to Radar.

If you find yourself in Utah, the maze will be open to the public from September 24 until Halloween. It takes about an hour to get through it, but only minutes to fall in love with Edward or Jacob.

“New Moon” will be in theaters, and so will you, on November 30.

Like this would ever get old.

A new still released from “New Moon” shows Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson locked in a loving gaze.

“New Moon” is one of the most anticipated films of the fall movie-watching season, and you can bet that Blast is going to be all over it as we progress toward release date.

You can take two things away from Taylor Lautner’s cover story on Teen Vogue: His karate instructor was a blue Power Ranger, and there is no love triangle among him, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

“It’s crazy,” the “New Moon” hunk said. “But the fans help. They’re a big part of the motivation.”

Lautner credited a childhood karate teacher, who also played a blue Power Ranger in the hit series. The karate coach encouraged him to go into acting in the first place, he says.

He also evaded a question about his rumored love interest, Disney’s Selena Gomez.

“She’s a great girl,” he said, saying nothing else.

SAN DIEGO — Chris Weitz, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner and Ashley Greene debuted an exclusive clip of “The Twilight Saga: New Moon,” and what an exclusive clip it was. Showcasing the integration of Edward Cullen into the mostly Edward Cullen-less “New Moon,” the Bella/Jacob chemistry and Taylor Lautner’s smokin’ hot bod, let’s just say the Twilight fans got what they came for.

“I hope you guys are pleased when you see the results,” Taylor humbly told the audience before the clip was revealed. From the screams at the chest reveal (a shot with clearly only one purpose when filmed), they seemed to be.

Kristen Stewart admitted she unfortunately did not do her own stunts in the motorcycle scene that was shown. “Yeah, no,” Kristen replied when asked if she ever thought she would ride a motorcycle for the film.

Taylor, however, did every stunt we could get his hands on (that the insurance company said was okay) Chris Weitz said. “If Jacob is doing something impressive or dangerous in the film, it’s pretty much Taylor doing it,” said Chris. “And Rob just stood there looking good.”

It has been previously announced that Robert Pattinson’s Edward would be involved in the film version of “New Moon” more than he was in the book. He continually referred to himself as a supporting role in the morning press conference and again in the Hall H panel. From the clip shown, instead of just being a voice like in the novel, here Edward is a visual hallucination, telling Bella to “Stop” when she starts to ride the motorcycle and appearing in the road behind her when she is driving away — ultimately distracting her and causing her to crash (and Taylor to take off his shirt, etc. etc.).

“I’ve noticed you are very cold to the touch, with skin like marble and you glow like a diamond when the sun hits you,” Chris Weitz replied when asked if Robert Pattinson resembled Edward Cullen.

The visual and emotional look of Chris Weitz’s take on the saga looks a lot more interesting and less edgy than Catherine Hardwicke’s take to the first film. Ashley Greene even said Portland was a bit edgier than filming in Vancouver.

“I have been stalking Rob for the past 10 years,” Chris Weitz admitted when asked about coming to the film, saying he was excited to actually get to direct the film (though he had not read a “Twilight” novel before he was signed on).

“In spite of how glib I may seem, I really do appreciate the love the Twilight fans bring to this book,” he said.

The final shot of the film was taken in Italy, Stewart said, which was her favorite part of the Italy shooting. Robert seconded her saying the location they filmed at was exactly how he pictured it in the book.

Ashley Greene said she is most excited for the final showdown at the end of “Eclipse,” while Taylor said his is the sleeping bag/tent scene (DUH!).

“I can’t wait to actually get pregnant,” Kristen Stewart said.

“Actually, being involved in the cesarean,” Rob said after with a laugh. “I just can’t wait.”

“New Moon” hits theaters in November.

SAN DIEGO — You know we’re going to put out a ton of articles, interviews, galleries and news stories on Twilight and specifically “New Moon” at Comic-Con International this week, but here’s the first batch of fresh baked photos from this morning.

It’s a relief to see one of my favorite comedians, SNL veteran Jimmy Fallon, wake from the recent comedy-coma he’s been in ever since he got the heady promotion to hosting his own late-night show.

My favorite French Stewart impersonator’s jokes sadly turned awkward and stilted as soon as he hit the late-night circuit. ‚ He looked like a five-year-old going to church in his trim black suits, and most of his skits were contrived, albeit well-conceived, but in the end, Jimmy’s magic was gone.

But, ladies and gents, Jimmy Fallon just might be making a comeback. ‚ I laughed my way through this entire video that Jimmy made for his show in which he depicts Robert Pattinson and Daniel Radcliffe slamming one another with insults. ‚ Make sure to watch it to the end for some out-takes which may or may not “bother” you.

Hopefully, Jimmy, this is a sign of more good things to come.

No dammit! They’re not supposed to have sex until the last book! DUH! Like, everyone in the whole “Twilight” world knows that Bella and Edward don’t do the dirty until “Breaking Dawn!”

But if one Australian celebrity tabloid has it right — and we know how spot-on these tabs usually are — not only did Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson get it on, but she’s pregnant with his child.

The New York Daily News reported that an “insider” quoted by Australia’s New Weekly said that Stewart was, uh, late, and “she obviously started to thinking that she could be pregnant. And because of the timing, she thinks Rob could be the father.” The tabloid also reported that Stewart had a friend buy her a home pregnancy test.

The magazine also reported that Stewart is getting hate mail from fans because she has an “official” boyfriend named Michael Angarano.

It is important to note that neither Stewart, nor Pattison, nor any of their spokespeople have ever gone on the record, at any time, ever, to say that the two are romantic with each other.

Also, there is no evidence that anything in this story is true. But you can’t get enough, can you?

Blast was fortunate enough to speak with Mike Welch, who plays the Twilight Saga’s lovable human Mike Newton, today about the hype around “Twilight” and it’s upcoming sequel “New Moon” his work with charity, and… meth labs?

BLAST: So how was shooting in Vancouver different from Portland?

MW: Vancouver is one of my favorite cities, not only to film in but just to be in. I’ve shot a few different things over there over the past 10 years. I mean, Portland is great, there’s some great poetry and a great book store up there, but Vancouver, there’s just something about the way the city feels… That’s just the differences in the city, the differences in the films themselves, I mean, totally different. By the time “New Moon” rolled around, we tried to keep it as big a secret as we could [our locations], but it was impossible because all it took was one person to spot Rob or Taylor on the street and in 20 minutes there were hundreds of people there and there was paparazzi there and you know, it was just much more of an ordeal.

BLAST: Speaking of Portland, are you going to be at the Twilight Vampire Baseball Event?

MW: Over the July 4th weekend? Yeah yeah, it’s for charity, it’s a Make-A-Wish event.

BLAST: And you’ve done charity work before. You did environmental charity right?

MW: I won some sort of environmental award for some reason a couple years back… I guess since I drive a Prius or something. I mean a made a couple of environmental videos.

The main charity I’ve been with is Kids with a Cause, and we’re a multi-cause charity, but the ultimate goal is to help kids in need. We started out as a local charity, visiting like, orphanages, burn centers, etc. Now we’re trying to go international and help kids that need some of the basic fundamental things in life so they can pursue their own happiness. It’s been very rewarding

BLAST: So there’s Team Edward shirts, Team Jacob thongs, even Team Tyler’s Van merchandise -”" any Team Mike stuff popping up?

MW: There has been a little bit of Team Mike that I’ve seen. I’ve seen a couple t-shirts, but it was mostly my friends making fun of me [laughs]. I do get people every now and then telling me they are on Team Mike.

BLAST: If you had to pick a side, would you really be Team Mike, or choose between Edward and Jacob? Or are you contractually obligated like I’m guessing Kristen is to be ambiguous?

MW: I actually… between Edward and Team Jacob, I’m actually Team Jacob. I like Edward, but I… and I think it’s more of a gender thing more than anything else. I think Jacob represents more of a practical relationship, so I’d go Jacob -”" but if there is a legitimate Team Mike that emerges, I will be happy to join it.

BLAST: Bella does some crazy stuff in “New Moon.” Did you do anything so daring in high school?

MW: You know, [laughs] one thing that I used to do was go into the local high school with my car with my friend in the passenger seat and do really lame donuts and stuff and every now and then I’d get into little shenanigans like that. The most dangerous thing I did as a kid was, my grandma lived in the senior center, well not a senior center, more of a neighborhood. [Laughs] This is just so lame I can’t believe I’m telling you, anyway, and kids weren’t allowed to walk around unattended so my cousin and I would just walk around and avoid security.

BLAST: That’s pretty bad ass.

MW: Oh now that I think of it “"- when I was a kid, I actually grew up in a mobile home and there was actually what I later discovered to be meth lab right across from me. My neighbor and I would play cops and bad guys and we would spy on them and follow them around and stuff because we knew they were bad, but we had no idea.

BLAST: So has that ass shaking dance [from outside of the diner in "Twilight"] always won you the girls?

MW: Oh sure, that thing has followed me around like you wouldn’t believe [laughs]. No, nothing like that ever seemed to work in real life. I was similar to Mike Newton in high school — I hope I wasn’t that annoying — but that was my angle: “I’m the quirky guy, love me please.” But that never quite worked.

BLAST: So you said at some point they almost didn’t include the movie scene in New Moon? What’s that about?

MW: You know it’s a tricky thing when you try and turn a book into a movie because a movie is only two hours and there’s only so much you can fit in, but yeah, what they originally did was they took that moment between Jacob and Bella and put it in a different scene of the movie. Luckily Taylor and Kristen lobbied that scene for me to Chris Weitz saying it absolutely had to be in, and it’s a good scene. They weren’t really lobbying for me, it’s just, how can you not have that scene in there? Yeah, so I was really happy to hear that, and it was great for me because I got to do Mike’s best scene in the book.

BLAST: Any secrets from the “New Moon” set? Like maybe Justin Chon is really diva?

MW: Well I can tell you that Justin Chon actually has 3 nipples.

BLAST: You’re definitely making that up.

MW: Yeah. [Laughs] It’s funny, because that’s the thing everyone’s looking for, something to say, but these are pretty uncontroversial people.

BLAST: I guess that’s why pictures of the cast smoking cigarettes on set became some big scandal?

MW: Yeah, that’s about as scandalous as it gets.

Who wants to start this “legitimate” Team Mike already?

“Twilight” star Robert Pattinson was hit by a taxicab but was not hurt as he attempted elude a mob of female fans.

Pattinson, in New York filming his new movie “Remember Me” tried to run across the street to escape a large group of young girls when a passing cab clipped him, according to Boston.com.

The driver hit the brakes, and Pattinson was uninjured.

Pattinson gained renown for a role in “Harry Potter” but exploded in popularity after signing on to play the male lead, Edward, in the movies based on the Stephanie Meyer “Twilight” vampire series.

There are still six long months until “New Moon” hits theaters, but with a big weekend for the film at the MTV Movie Awards and only two months until the undoubted “New Moon” panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Summit is pumping out some new photos for Twilight fans to lust after.

Take a look below, and tell us what you think!

“Twilight” stars Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will present a clip from anticipated vampire sequel “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” May 31 at the MTV Movie Awards.

The stars similarly presented a clip of “Twilight” at last year’s Movie Awards.

“The Twilight Saga: New Moon” is set to be released November 20, 2009.

Last year’s clip was of the climactic Ballet Studio scene. Blast Twilight fans, what clip do you think will be shown at this year’s Movie Awards?

Who would have thought this time last year that Robert Pattinson would be presenting at the Oscars?

“Twilight”, with the help of millions of screaming girls, has brought Bert a long way. He was in surprising demand to be interviewed considering the superstars present at the event, and one channel even cut away from an interview with the “Slumdog Millionaire” kids to show him posing for pictures along the red carpet. That’s a big deal because those kids were an adorable favorite for the night.

It was a pleasant surprise, no doubt, to thousands of girls out there (and probably his managers as well) to see that his beloved, trademark locks are growing back in quickly for the upcoming filming of New Moon in March. Wearing a classic black tux and skinny bow tie, Rob showed us he really can clean up well. He even shaved off most of the surprisingly sexy hobo beard he had forming.

After walking the red carpet, which was much calmer than I’m sure he’s used to, being free of fangirls, Rob could be seen sitting almost directly behind Mickey Rourke during the show (note: Rob Pattinson had a better seat than Tina Fey who was about two rows behind him. How did that happen?). Rob took the stage with Amanda Seyfried from “Mama Mia!” to introduce a montage of what Romance looked like in film in 2008. After a few lines, and a few chuckles from the audience, it was hard not to wonder what happened to Rob’s accent. Was he channeling Edward Cullen to dazzle the audience? It just might have worked.

At the Vanity Fair after party, Pattinson could be seen chatting with fellow heartthrob Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens. What some teens out there wouldn’t give to find those three in one room…
