The official New Moon website has been launched & it brings with it these great new screencaps of Rob as Edward from the movie. The site also contains heaps more features so make sure you check it out here.   You do however need to have Flash player installed on your computer to be able to view the site.   Seeing these photos makes me even more excited for November, cannot wait to see Rob as Eddie again.

Thanks to our affiliate Robert Pattinson Unlimited for the caps

Unless of course you keep this bookmark of me in your copy of Wuthering Heights that you continually reread – lol.  Sorry – had a Twi moment there.  Speaking of which, imagine Eddie keeping place in your own copy of New Moon.  Hmmm might have to order 2 of these – one for the breakup, one for the clocktower because I don’t need to read anything else – oops I said that out loud right.  Anyway if you are interested in owning one (or maybe 5) you can click here to preorder (bookmarks will not be available until 15 August 2009). 

 

Well I can’t.  By this I’m referrring to making Rob appear at this year’s ComiCon.  Someone seriously didn’t pay attention to what happened at last year’s event.  Are they insane to want to put him through this again – have the last 2 months in New York not been bad enough?  Clearly ComiCon has a huge security budget to ensure that noone can get near him (*cough* *cough*).  Sorry I’m a little passionate about the fact that they pimp him out for these events.  Quite frankly I haven’t posted any other ComiCon news because personally, until I actually see him there, I won’t believe it (I remember they said the same thing about Rob attending the Nickelodeon Awards and suggested his appearance at the Hot Topic midnight release of Twlight DVD – both didn’t happen).   Anway what has got me going is Variety.com’s article by Thompson on Hollywood (click on link if you want to read full article):

“Thursday’s crazy madness will be the Twilight: New Moon panel. Heartthrob Rob Pattinson will appear (reminder: must pack earplugs) with co-stars Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner and director Chris Weitz, but lovelorn vampire Edward Cullen isn’t the main character in the movie, so Pattinson won’t participate in any backstage interviews. Summit is screening Twilight for the fans with cast members on hand. Summit is scheduled to film the third installment of the Twilight Saga, Eclipse, from August 17 through October 31 in Vancouver with David Slade (30 Days of Night) directing Melissa Rosenberg’s screenplay.”

I think the backstage interviews are the least of his worries.  And what do you mean “Edward Cullen isn’t the main character in New Moon”?  I’m in shock.  I was really under the misapprehension that all Twilight books are written with Edward Cullen as the main character – I better go back and reread them.  Sorry the sarcasm kicks in because these people actually try to pass themselves off as journos.  Okay so here is my argument – if Rob isn’t one of the main characters in New Moon and doesn’t need to do any “backstage interviews” – then he can be easily replaced by one of the other secondary characters like Ashley, Klutz or hey – even Billy Burke – he’s going  – so Rob doesn’t need to go – right.  Problem solved.  Just looking out for you Rob because I remember the backstage photo from last year and you DON”T need to go through that again.

Well I think some of us have been so caught up in the Tyler frenzy that we have forgotten about Eddie.  Okay well maybe that’s a slight exaggeration because I know that if it wasn’t for Eddie some of you might not even know who Rob is.  So I came across this beautiful photo and just had to share.  You may have seen it before, hell so might have I (it’s from the clocktower so chances are high), but I don’t think I’ve seen this version – such a beautiful beautiful shot – have I already said that.

Apparently this is the cover for the movie tie-in.  I kind of like this photo better than the official poster – what do you think?  Thanks to Lion_Lamb for the heads up. 

As Maria told us this morning (thanks so much again Maria for that lovely screencap) ET were supposedly going to screen a segment in their show that revealed some ‘New Moon Secrets’  Based on ET’s past ‘exclusives’ we were naturally a little skeptical when we heard this news & it turns out, it was rightly so for us to think this way.  I have now seen their short video & believe me there are NO real New Moon secrets there.  All they really talk about in this video is some gossip, talk about Us Magazine’s ‘The Sexy Stars of Twilight’ magazine (to refresh your memory click here ) & show footage that we have seen before. Due to the gossip element in the clip, we will not be posting the video here as I am sure you all understand why.

Believe me, you are not really missing out on anything too much by not seeing the video. The only thing that I found from this that was well & truly worth posting were the three beautiful Rob photos that I have posted for you all below.  Even though we have posted the last two already, I thought I would post all three together so you can get the full effect.  Am really hoping all three of these pictures are included in the magazine. We will keep our fingers crossed.  Sorry for the long comment by the way, turned out I had more to say that I first thought lol.
