Face Punch Movie Within Movie for New Moon

Michael Welch Face Punch New Moon Movie Mike Newton During the three-way date scene between Jacob Black, Mike Newton and Bella Swan that takes place in a movie theater in New Moon, Michael Welch has revealed a bit of a spoiler–the name of the action movie they’ll be watching: Face Punch.

When the cast of “New Moon” began planning out the pivotal date scene, they got a laugh out of some of the silly, fictional action-movie names that Weitz and his crew had assembled. But in the end, “Face Punch” was the winner.

“We started out with a few other comical names, but it turned out those were actual films so we couldn’t use those titles,” Welch laughed. “I forget the first few titles, but it was like ‘Crazy Explosion’ — and it turns out, there actually was a ‘Crazy Explosion.’ “

    Um....I do not know what it is, but that guy gives me the creeps...

    **scrolls to look at picture again**

    **shudders**

    yea...definate hee-bee-gee-bee's...

    lol
  • lol he does look weird in this picture
  • He just comes off annoying to me - I think he was too cheesy for the role actually. In the book, he was described as attractive but typical boring jock. Mike Welch doesn't do anything for me. But I guess they didn't want to over do it with the man meat in this series. Edward, Jacob, Emmett, Jasper..... we would be overloaded I suppose.
  • oh effing u r too funny :D and he does have the creep-tacular vibe about him i guess :D lol
  • LOL is it b/c he did the butt dance?

    "do the buttman! nanananana buttman!"
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
    LMAO!!!

    Um, not really sure what it is...but he just looks like he should avoid in dark alleys, if you know what I mean...LOL

    OMG! I know what it is...he reminds me of Spencer Pratt!! Yuck! I cannot stand that guy, and I dont know why, be Mike reminds me of him...

    **shudders again at thought of creepy flesh-colored beard of SP**

    lol
  • he should avoid being in dark alleys?

    LOL poor you.
    what are they famous for anyway?
  • rpattz_dreamer(TeamRobsBeanie)
    Oh dear poor effing, you know you really must avoid things that make you think of Spencer Pratt.

    *hands effing a vomit bag just in case my comment made her relive memories of SP's beard*

    Think happy Rob thoughts lol
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
    LMAO!!
     
    Thanks so much!
     
    **takes vomit bag**
    ....I should be okay, I just need to be sure that I don't think of SP and Efron-----
     
    **pukes immediately upon saying that name**
     
    lol
  • Way to go Mike Welch

    he just seems such a normal down to nearth guy whio can't believe his luck in getting a part in some of the biggest movies of the Naughties!

    He doesn't even seem to mind playing the guy all the girls overlook (mike Newton) but as MW he's kinda cute
    (OMG , thats the second time I've said that - I NEED CHARLIE PICS -Make me forget all the others Charlie...make me forget my own name!!!
  • bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
    Charlie news is sadly lacking at the mo, Sax. :(

    Never mind, those Volturi pics have gotta be just around the corner... :)
  • H'mm been around a lot of corners and still no Volyuri.

    Summitt are evil, they are messing with our minds ( not to mentions our
    libidos!)
  • cclore ~ Team CW for BD
    Poor Mike just never stood a chance! I wouldn't have given him the time of day with Edward and Jacob around lol!!
  • Go Michael who plays MIke!!! (Sorry, I always thought that was funny, hehe)

    I kinda feel bad for him, he is always forgotten. He actually did a really good job in the movie. Him and the chick that played Jessica were AWEsome in Twilight.

    Hopefully, we'll see more of him in NM cause Bella works at his parent's shop. We will see how much of that they'll put in NM...
  • lol Face Punch. That's reminds me of when Bella punched Jacob in the face... lmao.
  • rachaelwsz
    Same same... Lmao
  • Lil_Miss_Wolf_Girl
    Me Tooooo!!
    lol i thought i was the only 1 who thought that!
  • pamloves
    maybe they though the name crosshairs was weird and it is. so i don't really care what they call the movie that they see. little details don't bother.
  • What... why can't they just see the one thats in the booooookkkkkkkkkkkkkk?
  • bean... I neeeeeeed iiiittt!
    I can't wait for this scene in the movie. It made me laugh so much in the book. :)
  • cutesweetiezzz
    Same!
    It was one of the very few happy moments in the book.

    I'm glad Chris decided to put in back into the movie.
  • Rob_is_my_Kryptonite
    I don't remember what movie Jacob, Bella, and Mike were supposed to see in New Moon anyways?
    That is a hilarious title for a fake movie though!
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    LMAO... haha poor Mike... even in real life he gets mixed up.... lol ok, I'm KIDDING!! He's a funny dude... I loved the bow chicka wow wow dance... awesome!! I do it everyday.... lol... kidding again, but I DO love that dance!! Go Mike... I can't wait to see that scene in the movie... yay!!

  • 4thewolf
    My intentions were good. My brain couldn't turn off and you know once Scarlet goes after me, I can't just leave in the middle of a insult, can I?

    lol
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    Yes! I know exactly what you mean *glares towards Scarlet*
    I'm glad you take our job seriously and that you didn't leave the rez unprotected while I took a nap :)

    *takes oatmeal*

    *walks in small circle*

    I don't know PIMS... I'm decidedly tired...and I'm thinkative today. *small smile*

    But I'll try to get going in just a minute.

    *sits down and eats oatmeal* Hmm.. Yuck. At least it's healthy.

    lol
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    *looking at oatmeal*

    Just take it like a man! (lol)

    *arching eyebrow* Yes, yes...I know what you mean.

    I have not forgotten our convo last night...*wink*
  • 4thewolf
    *looks at Pimsy calmly*

    Pimsy.. I am not a man. And I don't eat oatmeal. I don't even like cereal.

    *sigh*

    No, I was thinking again about the impossibility of translating an unimaginable scary or beautiful or anything else almost unimaginably something into something visual. I'ts sure to disappoint, because as soon as you put it into pictures, it's no longer unimaginably.. whatever. and I have a very good imagination, so it has to outdo that, and most things don't.
    I couldn't watch the first more recent Narnia chronicles because Aslan is supposed to have such a huge presence and be terrifying to be around, until they get to know him, and yet the CGI lion, although cool, was so much ..less.. than I had pictured and his voice was way too gentle, and it ruined most of the movie for me. I mean, how do you visually show "presence" in a way that you can imagine it in your mind?

    Same thing with Nazgul in LOTR... they were creepy, but not enough to make me horribly afraid.. and I guess I'm worried about CGI wolves. If they don't change from Shrek-like ones that is going to ruin it for me.
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    LMAO

    Okay...so this is what you think of at 8 am!

    Yes I know what you mean...

    It might ruin it for me too. I was expecting a larger wolf than the one on the trailer...but that is the director's vision of how the wolf should look like. Everybody sees it in a different way. It's impossible to please us all. Although they know very well my opinion is the only one that matters (lol). This doesn't apply to the CGI only...the Bella in my head was more insecure and less freaky with her mouth and eyebrow...



    LOL
  • 4thewolf
    Oh, you have no idea how many things run through my mind at all hours of the day.. It's mindboggling.. that's why I try to run in circles. If I'm happy, it's just fun. But if I"m mindboggled, it makes me focus on watching out for oncoming trees. LOL



    I don't know PIMs, I'm hoping it was just an initial. I mean, wolves as big as horses was a pretty direct image, so CW coming up with something smaller would be veering away from what was written.. and it's fur was so ..plasticy..not shaggy. And it was the wrong color. *sigh* Ok.. I'm in funk. I'll snap out of it soon..



    LOL
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    Yes! Thats why I thought he was too small...like the size of a regular size wolf *pout*
    *hugs 4tw*
    Don't apologize for feeling how you feel now. I wouldn't like you any less when you are in a funk vs you gitty and jumping around.
    If you wanna take a break from here, go ahead *smile* or we can talk about intellectual things, and why the sky is blue! Although I don't know how much I can contribute, lol, I can try! *hugs*
  • 4thewolf
    You're having lots of fun with SpankMe, so go run run run. *grin*

    Actually, I can't find a reply box for her, so would you please take this cold oatmeal and dump it on her head for me?

    I think that would vastly improve my mood.

    lol

    Thanks.. *hands Pimsy bowl*



    Ooh. and you know what, I really liked that fan-based trailer where these guys were diving in a PIMSY-like blue light and then these grey wolves hit the ground running. That was ultra-cool, even if the wolves were regular. Ok.. ok.. go have fun.. I'm going to sit here and brain ramble.

    *curls up on log and dazes off* *snaps out of it for a second*

    OH. don't forget.. SpankMe.. oatmeal.

    *goes back to daydreaming*

    lol
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    *concern look*
    *opens mouth and closes again*
    *speaking always gets PIMSY in trouble, maybe she should be more…patient*
    *sighs*

    *looks at cold bowl of oatmeal and at SpankMe running and laughing*
    Sure…I’ll throw it on her…
    *head low, walks away*
  • 4thewolf
    PIMSERS.. it's ok!!! I just threw a spoon at Scarlet. Doesn't that count for something. Don't let me depress you. You're so vibrant and lovely and happy! Go pick on Scarlet..She loves it. LOL

  • h3ll0kimberwy
    lol, i think i do tooo:P
    i might dislike the puppy newton @ times (especially in new moon, he just bugs the hell out of me there), but mike welch seems like a happy-go-lucky guy. he's just so happy to be a part of such a HUGE movie(:
  • Venia_Cullen
    second!! :D
  • its_R_Pattz_baby
    thats weird, i wonder why an action film. Bella kept wanting and purposefully trying to watch scary movies.
  • h3ll0kimberwy
    wasn't it like really bloody or something? and they kept laughing at how poorly made it was? and jake thought mike had a weak stomach, or something along those lines...
    so maybe this is like a grostesque, nasty, kinda scary action movie:P
  • yeah i thought that was supposed to be a scary movie, not action. oh well.
  • TwilightKiss
    haha cant wait to see that scene!
  • h3ll0kimberwy
    i can't wait to see mike get all poor stomach, see a smile off his face:P !
    and of course this is the last real moment bella and human jake have :/
  • CF911 Team Tyler!
    Didn't they go see a scary movie? I really don't care, but I thought that Bella only wanted to see scary ones.
  • fairlyfreaksome
    Why didn't they just watch the same movie they watched in the book...?
  • Meh .. i'm not too worried about it. Its just a minor detail (the movie being a comedy vs a scary movie, like the book). Lets just be happy that this scene IS in the movie. Considering that Melissa Rosenberg didn't even write it into the script. We have Taylor and Kristen the thank for this.
  • h3ll0kimberwy
    agreeed! if this wasn't in the movie, i would diiieeee!
  • its_R_Pattz_baby
    i was shocked when i first heard this scene wasnt gonna be in the movie initially. its a great scene, and we get to watch the awkwardness between the three and then mike throwing up hehe. you gotta love mike for trying
  • ImNotScaredOfYou
    I think Jessica's supposed to be there though so there won't be as much awkwardness as if it was only the three of them.
  • Nina ♡ The Twilight Saga
    So looking forward to seeing this scene, it`s hilarious!! =)
  • its_R_Pattz_baby
    when i first saw the post, i thought it was jacob was gonna face punch mike during the movie scene. till i read some more and realised it was the name of the movie.

    Just a random fact i thought i might share with everybody
  • LOL that would've been hilarious. jake better say that marshmellow line when mike starts puking. xD
  • did i read though that he doesn't puke? that they've changed that bit or something? or was tht a dream?

    *flicks through dream diary*
  • JaspersGirl
    thats what i thought too! hehe!
  • its_R_Pattz_baby
    third...woo hoo!!
