New Moon

[CallieLynsMommy]

Hi ladies,

I just saw New Moon and wasn't expecting much, because Twilight was pretty bad but overall it was a better movie than Twilight...which isn't saying much. I like the books but the movies are really rather crappy. One of the major things that bugged me with this one was the fact that they stated that Jacob and the wolf pack are actual werewolves! Totally contradicts the books. did this bother anyone else?!

Edit: Okay, I was wrong, lol. I just don't remember Alice calling Jacob a werewolf but I was wrong! It's been a while since I read the series.

I haven't seen it, but, really, up until Breaking Dawn, they call themselves werewolves, they are known as werewolves, etc.  It isn't until Aro has to explain that they're shape shifters to Caius that they're called anything but werewolves, so I guess I'm not sure how calling them werewolves in the movie contradicts the book... 

[CallieLynsMommy]

Really? I could have sworn that the Cullens already knew that they weren't werewolves. Guess I'm wrong!

Carlisle may have, but he never says anything (I just re-read the series, LOL).  Aro's the first one to use any word other than werewolf to describe them.  And that's 'cause Caius is all ready to kick some ass on the "children of the moon" as they call them.  Evidently, the Volturi took out all of the "real" werewolves :)

We Found Out Why Robert Pattinson Smells

We've all heard that Robert Pattinson doesn't change his clothes more than once a week and is kind of smelly (just Google "Robert Pattinson smells" if you don't believe us), but it turns out it's all a strategic move to foil the paparazzi, as we learned at the Cinema Society and D&G-hosted New Moon premiere on Thursday.

Nurse Jackie star Peter Facinelli, who plays Robert Pattinson's father in the Twilight movies, takes credit (blame) for Robert Pattinson's rumored body odor problem. "He's smart, because if he doesn't changes his clothes and the paparazzi get pictures of him in the same outfit all the time, then they can't sell the pictures," Facinelli told us at Thursday's Cinema Society screening of Twilight Saga: New Moon. "That's what I said he should do; I said, ‘You should not change your clothes, this way, how are they going to sell the picture of you in the same outfit all the time, because it will look like it was from the same batch.'" Father knows best.

Pattinson's co-stars deal with the issue in their own ways. The lovely Ashley Greene, who plays Pattinson's sister Alice Cullen, tries to avoid breathing when in his presence. "You know what, I think maybe out of a defense mechanism, I don't sniff him," she said, laughing. Kellan Lutz, who plays brother Emmett Cullen, admires how Pattinson still looks great, even in musty attire. "He's got a great style. I wish I could pull off the easiness that he does," Lutz told us. And director Chris Weitz is actually grateful that Facinelli gave R-Patz the sage advice. "I can smell him coming, that's the nice thing," Weitz explained.

yeah in the book they pack calls them selves werewolves untill they hear diffrent from aro in BD

[TygerLily62]

THe books don't say anything about the wolves not being warewolves till the last book.  The movie was better than the first one though. I might have gotten into it more if Krisin Stewart wasn't such a terrible actress...

[mama2mycuties]

The Cullens do know that they aren't truly "werewolves" but for sake of a huge explanation they just call them that, they explain during the last book during or before the fight(cant remember which) that they are not really werewolves or "children of the moon" but shapeshifters, that the tribe ccould have choosen any form to change to but its always been the wolf.

Aro explains the difference in Breaking Dawn.

yeah edward makes a mention of it at some point, but doesnt go into it much.

the volturi ALMOST took them all out. they thinned them pretty good though. im trying to remember his exact words. something about 'they are not the children of the moon you NEARLY made extinct' or something like that.
