YouTuber Tiffanyd666 has made an entirely new high quality remix/recut of her amazing New Moon trailer, and it is more stunning than ever. She says–

To honour breaking the 3 million views milestone, and also (it is a bit early) to celebrate 1 year of being a very proud Twituber (Twi-vidder technically) this is a gift to the hard core fans of my New Moon Trailer; here is a HQ version, ‘remade’ with Sony Vegas Pro 8.0. Tweaked slightly with a little bit of different footage and some stylish font, (to seem a tad more realistic) I kept the trailer mostly the same, seeing as the majority of fans seem to have already, and whole heartedly accepted it. I did keep Steven Strait as Jacob because I really wanted to make a re-vamped (no pun intened) version of my original trailer, but I am currently working on a new ‘New Moon trailer’ with Taylor Lautner, which I will post sometime after the (Australian) DVD release of twilight.

Robert Pattinson is gearing up for the Oscars on Sunday, as he has been spotted back in Los Angeles, looking suaver than ever and growing a bit of a beard–wonder if he’s on Rodeo Drive to pick out his Red Carpet-wear?

Looks like the rumor that Madonna will be involved with New Moon is only partly true–and the part that might be true is still up in the air:

Widespread Internet chatter that Madonna may participate in some capacity in the Twilight sequel, New Moon, may be only partly true, a source close to the production tells EW. Summit Entertainment, the studio behind the movie series, has no plans to cast the pop star and sometime actor in New Moon. However, because Madonna’s manager, Guy Oseary, is a producer on the project, there is some talk of her providing songs for the sequel. Still, no deals have been made yet, and the plans haven’t progressed beyond the that’d be cool stage.

The Robert Pattinson flick How to Be, which he shot before Twilight, has just announced a release in the US! It looks to be a quirky indie comedy –

We’re excited to announce the much-anticipated U.S. release of How To Be! The film has been picked up for distribution by IFC Films and will premiere on IFC Festival Direct in April. To coincide with IFC’s spring release, the How To Be soundtrack will be available on iTunes and on CD through Dreamboat Records. Full details of the release to come soon, and if you’re not in the U.S. or Italy then rest assured that we are hard at work setting up distribution elsewhere!

Here’s the trailer–check after the break for 10 more pictures from the movie!

One of the most hotly charged topics yet on NewMoonMovie.org has been the harsh words writer Stephen King had for Stephenie Meyer. King said that Meyer “can’t write worth a darn,” and over 500 comments later, you guys definitely had some choice words to share about his opinion.

Baltimore Sun columnist Dave Rosenthal has penned an opinion piece on what this war of words means. I thought it was worth sharing–

Here’s a shorthand version of the King/Meyer Comment Spectrum: King is coasting on his early fame and is jealous of her success; King is rude to criticize another writer; King is a great writer. Meyer is a thesaurus-abusing hack; Meyer shouldn’t be allowed to make vampires sparkle; Meyer may not be the greatest writer, but she creates compelling stories; Meyer is a great writer and storyteller.

The truth, as the cliche goes, lies somewhere in between. For all the criticism about Meyer’s writing – and I don’t begrudge King the right to give his opinion – there’s no denying her power as a storyteller. Meanwhile, she has made millions of teens into readers, and that’s to her credit.

Hey, when I was a kid, I survived on Whoppers, Superman comics and bubble-gum music. I wasn’t going to change by being offered steak au poivre, Shakespeare and Brahms. Eventually, though, I moved on.

So, I say to the Meyer-haters: Lighten up. And consider these words of Kurt Vonnegut, supplied by commenter Robin: Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is preposterous. He or she is like a person who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae.

In today’s WTF moment, Madonna is reportedly in talks to participate in New Moon. Oh my, these rumors are getting out of hand! Next thing you know, David Beckham and Brad & Angelina will be in! It was reportedly stated by Ryan Seacrest–did anyone see this? I would love to see the clip:

According to Ryan on E! News, Madonna will be involved in the sequel to “Twilight” which the second movie will be made on the second book of the “Twilight Saga”, “New Moon”. Guy Oseary is the executive producer to the movie starring Robert Pattison and Kristen Stewart.

It is unknown to whether Madonna will either act in the second installment to the saga film or sing for the soundtrack or both.
