New Moon Trailer

Flisha — Sat, 25 Jul 2009 12:35:00 +0000

Two New Moon movie trailers debuted at Comic Con and someone uploaded it to Youtube! Yayyy! The vids are kinda shaky but until we get the official uploads, let’s take whatever we can get, right ladies?! Right!

Watch a clip Bella on the motorcycle, crashing, and of super hot Jacob taking his shirt off to tend to Bella’s cut! (And a creepy ghosty Edward.)

Check out that six pack! Dayum. Wireless alarms are going off all over the place. So wrong. So so so wrong. Haha. Taylor’s really good at the Jacob role, huh? (Can’t say the same for Kristin, though.) Here’s another clip, with Edward this time, taking his shirt off!! After the jump!

w00t! Hey, where’d Rob get the abs? Didn’t know he had any haha! Too bad he’s all pale, but then again he is playing a vampire. I wanna see him play human in a movie!

Want a preview of the New Moon plot? (Unless, of course, you’ve read the book, then you’d know it by heart already!) Here’s a plot summary written by IMDB:

After Bella recovers from the vampire attack that almost claimed her life, she looks to celebrate her birthday with Edward and his family. However, a minor accident during the festivities results in Bella’s blood being shed, a sight that proves too intense for the Cullens, who decide to leave the town of Forks, Washington for Bella and Edward’s sake. Initially heartbroken, Bella finds a form of comfort in reckless living, as well as an even-closer friendship with Jacob Black. Danger in different forms awaits.

Can’t wait to see New Moon! The trailers look good! Here’s hoping it’s not gonna suck like the first one!!!

New Moon Trailer

Flisha — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 21:28:00 +0000

The New Moon teaser is here! New Moon is, by the way, the second novel in the Twilight saga. Like you didn’t know.

Looks good!

Oh my god the trailer looks sooo good! I am so excited! I don’t know who’s directing this thing but I am just glad it’s no longer Catherine Hardwicke because she really sucked at directing.

You guys might be thinking I’m not into Twilight from all the negative stuff I’ve said about it in comparison to Sookie and True Blood but really I love it the same as you! The stories were fantastic, it was just Stephenie Meyer’s telling that was unfortunate, and thus, made it so not a stellar experience.

Which is why I was so excited to watch Twilight, because I thought it would be a great movie. Unfortch, not. But this trailer looks surprisingly good! And not all greenish and monocolor like the first movie! There are actually red hues in there!! Yay for color!

And the make-up is soo much better! Did you notice Rob’s lipstick isn’t as bright red anymore? Lolololol! He looks so much hotter! Hee!

And speaking of hot, omigod, Taylor Lautner has bulked up! Oh I love his body. And I so love his skin color. And okay now I feel like a pervert for saying all those things, ‘coz he is only what, 15? Ugh, I am going to pretend he is older!

The only thing I didn’t like from the trailer was Bella’s acting when she said “Kiss Me”. Sooo unnatural and awkward. I cringed. She’s not a very good actress…

While the best thing was definitely the last, where Jacob springs to action and transforms into a wolf. W00t! Loves it! I am so looking forward to more wolves and more half-nekkidness. Er… heh.

And! How wonderful is it that the scenes are not cut straight out of the book? Like, Edward never throws Bella against the piano and causes her entire arm to bleed! And Bella never sees Jacob transform into a wolf in the forest. And Jacob doesn’t save her himself, it was him and his pack of wolves, and they were already in wolf form when they save Bella.

I love surprises! Bring it on!

Takipsilim: The Philippine Remake of Twilight

Flisha — Wed, 24 Dec 2008 09:07:00 +0000

Update: The article over at ABSCBN has been removed. It is rumored this may be merely an elaborate hoax, but ABSCBN has not yet released a statement.

Omigod. The Philippines is coming out with its own version of Twilight. Yes, that Stephenie Meyer book which was made into a movie directed by Catherine Hardwicke and starring the meh Kristen Stewart and the rougishly handsome Robert Pattinson.

The Tagalog Twilight is called Takipsilim (I didn’t know that was the literal Tagalog translation for Twilight! To me it loosely translates to “under the cover of darkness”) and it stars Filipino actors Rayver Cruz and Shaina Magdayao.

Um. Couldn’t they find a handsomer looking actor, like, say Gerald Anderson?? Hehehehe.

Also… I wonder if they’re going to cut off Rayver’s lower half. In Philippine folklore, vampires are called aswang or mananggal and they usually have freakishly large batlike wings and they fly, but only their upper bodies fly. Yes, they leave their lower halves wherever. Like in their house maybe. Hahaha. And they can turn into bats.

In the Twilight book, the Filipino danag was mentioned. It’s actually a Visayan word for the Tagalog aswang or manananggal. The Philippines has a lot of languages and dialects, so…

From ABSCBN:

Filipino fans of Stephenie Meyer’s “Twilight” series will soon have another reason to celebrate after broadcasting giant ABS-CBN bagged the exclusive rights to make a local television series based on the vampire novels.

Initial reports said ABS-CBN paid $1 million with co-producer Ignite Media for the rights to the Twilight series. The new series, tentatively titled “Takipsilim”, will reunite the onscreen tandem of Rayver Cruz and Shaina Magdayao.

Taping for the series will start February of next year. Some parts of the series will be shot abroad and the other locations include Tagaytay, Bukidnon and Baguio. The series will be directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina.

From Yehey:

Rayver Cruz will star as Edward Cullen and Shaina Magdayao as Isabella Swan in the local television version “Twilight.” The hit vampire novel has been bought by ABS-CBN has bought for more than US$1 million with Ignite Media as co producer. The taping is set to start next year by Feb. in Baguio, Tagaytay, Bukidnon with some parts to be shot abroad. To be directed by Cathy Garcia Molina, the TV adaptation will focus on Edward and Bella’s love story to be treated as drama, romance and fantasy. The unofficial cast includes Valeen Montenegro as Alice Cullen, Gabby Concepcion as Dr. Carlisle Cullen, Luis Manzano as Emmett Cullen, Al Tantay as Charlie Swan, Yayo Aguila as Renee Dwyer, Fred Payawan as Jacob Black, Carlos Agassi as James, Chin Chin Gutierrez as Esme Cullen, Karylle as Rosalie Hale, Joross Gamboa as Jasper Hale, Jessy Mendiola as Jessica Stanley, Empress Schuck as Angela Weber, Brad Murdoch as Laurent, Nikki Bacolod as Victoria and Aaron Villaflor as Mike Newton. Rayver and Shaina were former love team partner but the tandem did not work. It seems their tandem will click in “Twilight.”

Here‘s an ongoing discussion at Pinoy Exchange. Comments?
