Twilight and New Moon News for Oct 16


Two New Stills From "Twilight: New Moon"

We've got a couple new stills from Summit Entertainment's "Twilight: New Moon", the sequel to their international blockbuster "Twilight" based on the popular series of books of the same name. The first is of Bella (Kristen Stewart) sharing a moment with her father. The second has Bella and Jacob (Taylor Lautner) listening to a man (no clue who he is or what part he plays in the movie) while sitting on a stair case. Read on to check them out! "Twilight: New Moon" hits theaters next month. Also, look for "Twilight: Eclipse" in theaters next June! Link...

'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' soundtrack: Track-by-track reactions
A new film in the "Twilight" franchise is more than just a cinematic event. Since the soundtrack to "Twilight" sold a stunning 2.2 million copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan, the vampire brand means serious business to the music industry as well.
The soundtrack to "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" is released off-cycle today, rather than the typical music industry release day of Tuesday. It's out a month ahead of the film, which hits theaters nationwide on Nov. 20, and whether or not it will have the same retail impact as the music companion to the first film remains to be seen.
But this is much is certain: The "New Moon" soundtrack is definitely much more of a piece than the soundtrack to "Twilight." It's moody, music-to-get-sad-to, definitely, but music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas has put together a collection of songs that captures the drama of young love without drowning in it. Link...

The view: Lay off the Robsessed
If the career trajectory of the typical teen-hunk movie star weren't already ill-fated enough, such is the pace of the modern age they now have to see their fame dissected before they've even outgrown the label. Such has been the lot of Robert Pattinson, much-admired star of Twilight and its looming sequel New Moon. Here's a man who's done more than most to bring vast numbers of teenage girls into cinemas of late, and whose more ardent fans are now the subject of a documentary, the in-no-way-cashing-in Robsessed.
