As if we needed yet another reason to adore him, Peter Facinelli went above and beyond the call of duty during his recent autograph session at Fort Lewis–

Originally schedule to last just two hours Saturday afternoon, Facinelli’s visit to the PX finally wrapped up at 2 a.m. Sunday morning, some 16 and a half hours after it started. The appearance at the exchange capped off a whirlwind three day tour of Ft. Lewis that had Facinelli meeting troops from the 4th Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, talking with more than 100 military children at a local prep school and taking part in a question and answer session with some 1,000 fans at a free screening of the Twilight movie Friday night.

Variety is reporting that Robert Pattinson may star in the romantic drama Memoirs–

“Twilight” star Robert Pattinson is in talks to star in Summit Entertainment’s romance-drama “Memoirs.”

Allen Coulter, whose credits include “Hollywoodland,” “The Sopranos” and “Damages,” is in talks to direct “Memoirs.”Nick Osborne and Trevor Engelson are producing through their Underground Films banner.

The script, originally penned by Will Fetters, centers on a pair of star-crossed lovers who meet and fall in love while struggling to deal with family tragedies that threaten their relationship.

Meanwhile, the Risky Biz blog questions whether fans will stick with Robert Pattinson after the Twilight series is over–

But what Pattinson-mania doesn’t address is his post-”Twlight” drawing power — a time that is coming sooner than you’d think, given that three of the four potential movies in the franchise will have come out by next summer. Sure, tons of teenage girls went to see him in “Twlight,” but they went to see him in an adaptation of a book they’ve adored and re-read. Will they flock to him when he’s not an unattainable, chaste member of the undead?

BuddyTV gives a play-by-play blogging of their thoughts while watching the Twilight DVD. Some of this is HILARIOUS! The whole thing is worth reading, but here are some of the comments towards the beginning of the movie:

KW: Native Americans! Really, really bad wig on Taylor Lautner.

MC: She and Jacob have the same haircut.

OD: “Eww…look at the new girl”

KW: The GAYSIAN!

DC: OMG, I love gaysians.

MC: Why is he wearing a tie??

OD: We know she’s suffering on the inside because she said, “I’m suffering on the inside.”

KW: Is this a Diablo Cody film: “Chilax”?

DC: Um, because he’s gaysian.

MC: This is an absurdly diverse small town high school.

KW: Mike has pretty blue eyes. My favorite character is Jessica.

MC: This girl is on coke, right?

DC: Jessica sounds like she is mildly impaired.

….

DC: What’s with this dialogue?

KW: She’s so abrupt with him.

MC: “You were gone.”

KW: Why is it weird to ask someone about the weather?

MC: This is like conversations I have on the bus with homeless guys.

DC: Cold, wet thing,

MC: HES COLD.

DC: ! And she’s wet!

MC: Like the rain.

Edi Gathegi shared a few new words of what to expect in New Moon–

Laurent who had a conscience in Twilight is a different kind of vampire in New Moon. “He is infinitely less conflicted in this movie,” joked Gathegi.

As far as what else we can expect in New Moon, Gathegi said “there is a lot more movement in this script.” I guess that means more stunts to look forward to — after all, Bella does become an adrenaline junkie riding motorcycles and cliff diving. She is one tough mortal!

Ryan Reynolds, who is quite droolworthy himself, definitely understands the attraction to New Moon vamp Robert Pattinson–

While promoting his new film Adventureland, Reynolds gushed about the British hottie to MTV. “I love Twilight,” he told the network. “Oh my God, are you kidding me? Robert Pattinson in a word: dreamy.”

When MTV asked if Reynolds would like to do a movie with Pattinson and “stare into his beautiful British eyes,” Reynolds mischievously replied: “Oh are you kidding me? Look, I’m not gay – but I’m thinking about it.”

In today’s 2nd piece of news of dubious origin, apparently crewmembers on the set of New Moon are raising a stink over Robert Pattinson’s stench:

“He stinks. I mean, it’s awful. He never showers, and it drives people on the set crazy,” dishes someone who works in very close quarters with Pattz. Apparently our shaggy-haired love never rinses that bod of his, as Keanu and Brad have famously not done, as well, during extended periods of their hunky lives. Like, ever. And it’s past the point of a little BO. “He completely reeks,” complains an annoyed crewmember.

Hey, maybe he just wants to smell worse than the wolves!

Rob Pattinson’s a Dirty Boy—and Not Like That! [thanks, Lindsey]
