Vanessa Hudgens joining New Moon? Taylor Lautner Oh so Proud of his Muscles!

I so love Hollywood! Here's the news regarding Taylor and Vanessa (they seem to be good friends on the picture? Vanessa Hudgens To Join 'Twilight' Sequel?

Vanessa Hudgens of High School Musical is being considered for a role in New Moon because she has auditioned for the role of Leah Clearwater and Ashley Greene (Alice Cullen) thinks she'd be great in the role! Hehehe Michael Buckley of 'What the Buck' will definitely freak out on this because he doesn't like Vanessa and on the other hand, he likes Twilight!

Again I haven't read New Moon so this is making me all excited and sad at the same time. *sigh*

Now about Taylor Lautner, really this dude is definitely enjoying the limelight! As in he's like beginning to be visible in every events...he's doing his best and making the most of it! He's even proud of his new physique!

According to him and Access Hollywood:

Taylor also showed off his new bulked-up physique for his return as Jacob in "New Moon."

"I get into the gym every single day, seven days a week, two hours a day, eat as much as I possibly can," he told Access. "[I'm] going crazy."

Taylor said he's put on 26 pounds since starting his training regimen the day after he finished filming "Twilight" -- and he's not done yet.

"I put on 20 pounds and then I guaranteed 10 more pounds," he said. "I've already put on about six, so four more pounds. I'm a man of my word."

Duh! Ego and Narcissistic much? Rob isn't like that at all! But then again Jacob is very different from Edward so Taylor really need to prepare for New Moon because it's his moment. He can't be all glitter tits like Edward so might as well bulk up right? Hehhehe..Hey, not everyone is given the chance to become one hot sexy werewolf. In my case it's like me in disbelief as an older sister to Taylor (though I'm not literally hahaha) I just can't believe that at a young age -- he isn't 18 yet! He's just so bulked up! I'm beginning to worry for the boy...

Prince Caspian Wants to Play the role of Aro in New Moon?

Okay, I after I watched The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian I think I'm falling for Ben Barnes (Prince Caspian) btw he will reprise his role as King Caspian on the third installment of Narnia.

Anyway, as I was searching something about him because he's now my crush hehehe, I checked on Ben Barnes at Wikipedia and it was stated there that Barnes would like to play the part of Aro in the 2009 film-version of Stephenie Meyer's book New Moon (novel).

I kind of like the idea of him being a vampire. Unfortunately though I haven't read New Moon yet so I can't picture him as Aro. I was focused on Jacob, Bella and Edward that I dunno who the Aro character is...care to enlighten anyone? Thanks! c",) xoxo

What The Buck's Best Movie of the Year Is....

I just like What the Buck so much that every time I get the chance to be online I always watch it! Here's Michael Buckley's final review and award for 2008!

Nuking the Fridge
http://movies.yahoo.com/photos/collections/gallery/1328/nuking-the-fridge/#photo9

Sometimes while watching a flick, there's a moment that is so jarringly stupid, so breathtakingly ridiculous that it throws you out of the movie, leaving you either befuddled or chortling like a lunatic. This year, a term was coined for such a moment -- "Nuking the Fridge"

TWILIGHT--VAMPIRE BASEBALL/WESTSIDE STORY MOMENT
Going into "Twilight," you'd expect to see some teen angst, a little blood sucking, and a lot of moony-eyed swooning. Yet the baseball game might be a surprise. Apparently, vampires love to don uniforms popular during the Black Sox scandal and play ball in thunder storms. Apparently, Edward can bolt after any fly ball with lightning speed, even if the special effects used makes him look more like Speedy Gonzales than an undead dreamboat. And apparently when two rival bands of vampires meet, they face off Broadway-style, like the Sharks and the Jets in "West Side Story."

Hmmm... come to think of it... it does kinda look like the face-off in the West Side Story only in a different way and story, without singing and dancing. Only heaving chests and piercing eyes and sharp teeth! hehehe.

Say NO! to Twilight Filipino Version

Hi Guys!

I just signed a petition regarding that "Takipsilim" (aka Twilight pinoy version).

No offense to those who want the Filipino version of Twilight; but I'm a million percent against it. I think it will ruin the Twilight franchise. Better yet, they should just create a version that is similar yet different...just inspired by the story of the Twilight Saga.

Would you imagine Shaina Magdayao portraying Bella? I did -- and it's going to ruin the character. I watched her serious role before on that Piolo-Angel drama and her acting is bland to become Bella. Rayver Cruz is definitely not the hunk and that perfect guy to play the role of Edward. He cannot even melt hearts of any age! He'll just try hard to the point of over reacting to convince the audience that he's perfect. I want an Edward who will stick to my very soul just like Rob Pattison did. I'm not against them. I'm just saying that it's better off that they leave the franchise alone.

Just because Twilight is so popular, doesn't mean that they have to create a pinoy version. Imagine... how can they recreate that piggy back ride in a very sweet scene? Even the meadow scene? It'll just look like another Shake Rattle and Roll "the romance" version. I don't want that to happen.

I'm sorry if I'll hurt some fans but I think it's for the best.

The Twilight Movie Review

Ladies I can't stop myself from posting this movie review we got from youtube by Michael Buckley. It's just so hilarious that I can't sleep without sharing this in our blog :)

New Moon in 2009

So Twilight Saga fans... mark your calendars for 2009 because they have already released the date for the second movie...New Moon!

New Moon' landing: `Twilight' sequel speeds ahead with November 2009 release planned

Associated Press

Last update: December 16, 2008 - 1:10 PM

LOS ANGELES - "Twilight" fans have a short wait for the next installment of the vampire saga.

Summit Entertainment spokesman Paul Pflug says "New Moon" is following just 12 months after the first movie, opening Nov. 20, 2009, over the same weekend as "Twilight" this year.

Summit has tapped Chris Weitz ("The Golden Compass") to direct "New Moon," based on the second book in Stephenie Meyer's best-selling series about the dangerous romance between a teen (Kristen Stewart) and a vampire (Robert Pattinson) fighting his bloodsucking instincts.

Weitz is taking over the franchise from "Twilight" director Catherine Hardwicke. "Twilight" has shot to $150 million at the box office since debuting Nov. 21.

Guys Decoded: Why they Bash Twilight

I haven't interviewed any guy friends yet about this, but seeing that Ate Tin's husband watched the movie out of curiosity, I've decided to write down some of the reasons why guys are bashing Twilight! (You can share your thoughts on why you think guys dislike twilight)

I'd like to thank all the men who made an effort in watching the movie with their wives, girlfriends, family and friends. Also to those who watched it alone! (Just like Kuya Arnel did).

Twilight bashing - particularly by guys are uncool. It's most definitely uncool when they do it just for fun to irk the ladies. I'd take negative criticisms if and only if they read the book. BUT DID THEY?!

1. Guys who can't take anything about Twilight is not in touch with their feminine side, they're all macho and egoistic (this makes the BearHugs one liner true: "Men are not pigs, Pigs are sensitive and gentle creatures")
2. They are insecure on the fact that vampires are dangerously handsome, godlike features, almost perfect. Something that the Twilight story has definitely proved. Some men are insecure that there's this guy named Edward and all the ladies are in love with him.
3. In denial -- They deny the fact that they are interested in learning lines and moves from Edward to capture a woman's heart not matter how cheesy it is. Or maybe, they're hiding from their cape, a defense mechanism to show their true color -- green (if you know what I mean ;)
4. Jealousy - Twilight is a fiction and will remain that way. Though it captured many hearts, doesn't mean that it will make you less manly or that the love of your life will leave you for a vampire.
   
5. One liners - This is my favorite! There's no hiding the fact that Edward is definitely the king of it all. Maybe some guys are frustrated on the fact that these one liners from a fictional character can melt a woman's heart that they cannot even compete with hehehe. If Casanova is alive right now, he would either be bashing Twilight or learning and appreciating and reading and watching the movie.
   
   Here are some of Edward's one liners that took my breath away some of it is actually corny, but hey it worked... Enjoy! c",)
   
   • “My sister can see the future. Let me give you a clue, it’s Me + You.”
   • “I’m an addict. Will you be my heroin?”
   • Your number was up the first time I met you.
   • We’re usually very good at what we do. Sometimes we make mistakes. Me, for example, allowing myself to be alone with you.
   • It’s too easy to be myself with you.

Better Late Than Never --Twilight Did Hit Me Hard"er" Than I Expected

Last Friday, after the much awaited girls night out with Ate Tin, Jen and TJ; we finally made it in our seats with anticipation and excitement to watch Twilight!
Note: Thanks for saving me! I was like... "I'd better be taken as a snack by James the evil vampire in the movie than be stuck at the 38th floor thinking of how miserable my life is that day with the monster" hahaha.

As I haven't read the book yet, I didn't know the characters by heart and I've heard a lot of mixed reviews. Since it is a hit, I wanted to explore the world of Twilight; and who else to better join me in my journey? Of course the hopeless romantic and avid fans themselves, Ate Tin and Jen!

There I was, sitting trying to feel all kilig and romantic and giddy as a teenager, but something was definitely amiss. I felt incomplete even as the movie ended (not incomplete like having a guy as a date for this movie though); but just like what Ate Tin said on being dazzled.

It was a good movie, what made it more better was the fact that the characters had so many close ups scenes that you cannot help but swoon at the sight of Edward, and even though Carlisle's make-up is a bit funny...if I have a vampire father he's definitely going to be my first pick! The cinematography is also good but I really wasn't affected the way I expected myself to be drawn (but wait...something happened...).

It's a good thing though that I watched the movie first, because now I can truly appreciate the story and the book. That's why I love books because it's more descriptive and you get to paint your own imagination, something that a movie cannot sometimes do.

But wait...something happened... as I was having dinner with my college friends last Sunday, One of my friends depressed in love and everything about it. I was just silent and suddenly a very weird thing happened. I was like...Oh my god! Did I just had a flash back on the scenes I watched in Twilight? (And while I'm eating my Korean food at that?) Suddenly there was the magic I was looking for when I watched the movie! How Edward is like a knight and shining armor, the lines that Ate Tin posted on her skype and YM, their faces, the romantic moments...My heart just did a back flip!

I think Stephanie Meyer is magical and there's just something about her that made this story of Edward and Bella memorable. She said in an interview that she dreamt of this story; well that is something special for me. To think that I was losing all hope to feel that magical pull of Twilight and then it suddenly hit me harder than I expected. I'm now gushing and my hands is itching to read the four books. How the Twilight story hit me so hard is still unexplainable.

I'm just thankful that I totally felt what the other ladies in the whole world felt even though it's a bit delayed. Cheers for that! c",)
