“Spider-Monkey” Alternative Lines Not Used

by Will on June 8, 2009 · Comments

in Catherine Hardwicke, Robert Pattinson, Twilight

200906081032.jpg The fateful line in Twilight before Edward gives Bella a bird’s-eye view of Forks about holding on like a spidermonkey was chosen by Robert Pattinson from serveral choices, Catherine Hardwicke revealed–

“I gave it to Rob, the whole list,” she explained. “And I said, ‘Rob, which one do you want to say?’ And he goes, ‘I want to say the spider-monkey one.’ “

Options not chosen include:

-Edward: You’re not scared of heights, are you?

Bella: Not that I know of …

-Edward: Got a good grip? Don’t let go.

Bella: No chance of that, buddy.

-Edward: Prepare for liftoff …

See the rest of the story over at MTV.

[thanks, Rachael!]

    wow everyone needs to calm down... it's one freaking line! yes, it was cheesy, but it's not the entire movie! and not trying to preach here, but we should be thankful that she even made this movie or we would not have kristen or rob or even Chris!
  • DiscoBra
    Totally hated the Spidermonkey line.. makes me cringe everytime.. but also really HATE the bit where Mike Newton points at Bella and does the whole haha aren't you funny thing with Jessica in the film... arghhhh awful,awful, awful!!
  • Catherine is an idiot :l
  • cutesweetiezzz
    Seriously, I thought all of the lines were really lame and cheesy.
  • i think that was a cute one
    hehehe
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    I know a lot of you guys thought that "Spider Monkey" was a lame line BUT I loved it!!! Especially coming out of Rob's marvelous lips *drools* it was really cute.. plus I thought it was SO Bella when Kristen laughed that cute little laugh... hehe... I loved it! AND that line was WAY better than the other suggestions... I would take that "Spider Monkey" from Rob anyday... oh yea =]
  • i am soooo happy they used spider-monkey cause its twilight not a freakin space moive ......prepare for lift off ........ok i have heard of stupid lines before but that just doesnt fit with twilight at all lol :(
  • You guys are so mean to Catherine Hardwicke! Twilight the movie started the whole phenomenon for a lot of people. It's one of my all time favourite movies and she did an amazing job along with the Actors. I'd like to see any one complaining do a better job! I liked the Spider Monkey line it made me smile.
  • MeganLovesTwilight
    wow i didnt like any of those. i didnt even like you better hold on tight spider monkey
  • just_bella TeamPinkSleepingBag
    You're right Bella, NOT A CHANCE we're letting go of Edward!!
  • Katie
    Oh my. I remember hearing it when I watched the commentary. Absolutely Horrible. So glad we have someone different directing this time. Every time I hear CH talk I get chills... ugh!
  • bina209
    LOL i like read every comment on this whole crappy spider monkey...and you guys are hilarious!!!!
    CH is just so weird!! i cant stand her and that whole prepare for lift off?????????? wow that is so friggin dumb!!! thank God she didnt do NEW MOON!
  • JoUK
    OMG!
    I never liked the 'hold on tight spider monkey' line but now Im so glad that it was the 1 they used!
    I NEVER EVER thought Id be saying that!
  • TaylerCullen
    Spider monkey is much better than the other options.
  • Kimberlina Dirty Pirate Hooker
    She should have consulted me, a fellow Texan! I have a great suggestion...how about...

    YOU DO THE MEADOW SCENE CORRECTLY!
    *breathing into brown bag*

    I feel better now, thanks!
  • jess
    Just thought they say monkey too many times in the movie.. okay... only twice but still... First Edward says "You better hold tight spider-monkey" and later in the baseball scene, when Emmett catches the ball in the tree and Rosalie says "my monkey-man". Couldn't they have come up with something else??
  • CF Mullet Mofo/Tyler Hawkins
    Prepare for liftout??? WTF?? Where does Catherine come up with this sh&t?

    Ok, at first, I really hated the spider monkey line, but it has kind of grown on me. I really don't mind it now. It is kind of cute the way Rob looks at Kristen when he says it.
  • TwilightChick35
    CH reminds me of Bob Ross...do you know who he is...he is the painter that used to be on PBS channels and he would alk while he painted on the show. He would say crap like this is where the happy little tree lives and there are no mistakes just happy accidents geeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzz does this show my age that I can remember this guy lol
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    LOL Thats hilarious...I used to watch him all the time and I would laugh my butt off every time he would say "this is your world though...you can put extra happy trees where you'd like them"
  • Edward'sLove
    I know who you are talking about. I wanted to slap him too.
  • Edward'sLove
    Thank goodness CH has nothing to do with the next 2 moives. Let's hope she is busy during the filming of Breaking Dawn also. I hate how she keeps saying that Rob is the one who picked the line. Like he had a better choice. Stick to directing CH. Actually I can't even say that because Twilight should have been sooooo much better and she did not capture the relationship at any stage between Edward and Bella. Although I love the movie because it is Twilight, had I not read the books I would have demanded my money back. Please, Please, Please Summit do not hire her again, and I will pass judgement on Melissa R. after I see how she butchered the script for NM. Sorry about the rant, but spider monkey. Come on Catherine. what were you thinking.
  • twifans217
    they should totally do a remake of twilight and do it with midnight sun!!!!! FORGET CH ALSO!!!!
  • Katie
    I so agree with you! I also would have demanded my money back if I had not read the book first. I have people ask me all the time what I thought of the movie and all I can say is, "it served its purpose." Normally movies from books are never as good as the book, (though still good), but this was just TERRIBLE. They better not mess up Breaking Dawn, I will be sooooo MAD!
  • CF Mullet Mofo/Tyler Hawkins
    Okay, completely agree with you. I think Chris should direct Breaking Dawn.

    Love your avatar.
  • agava [04/09]
    Totally agree. And God forbid CH for BD!!! I don't even wanna think what "creative" lines she could come up with! As I wrote in my post above, all of those lines were lame, we can't blame Rob for choosing that one! Oh yeah MR is gonna be in trouble if she messes up with NM script.

    I love Twilight too, and I like the movie, even though it could've been better. But there are some scenes I just can't stand. And this one is definitely towards the top of them.
  • HeartTheCullens (TeamUnicorn)
    I really just don't understand why they don't make the movies LONGER if it's such an issue to stay true to the content of the book. For example, American Gangster was a 3 HOUR MOVIE but people still watched it. Sex in the city for crying out loud was over a 3 hour movie, and people still sold out theaters.

    Of all the movies in the world WORTH making LONGER to get all the wanted/needed/accurate content in them............. could they not do it with Twilight Saga????? I mean come ON... the fans, the budget, and the viewership are impossibly high enough to make this happen.

    It scares me cuz Breaking Dawn book is twice the size of any of the other 3, has the most detail and action in it, and if they cant make TWILIGHT true to the book, wtf are they gonna do with Eclipse/Breaking Dawn???

    I say.......... make a 4 hour movie and put it ALL in there........... :)
  • AlohaSD "Robso-Freakin-Lutely"
    Okay, I know I'm late here, but...........

    I just finished watching The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. That movie was 2:46 minutes!!! I nearly gagged. BD has got to be longer... and it will have more action than Button, or Sex/City.

    Please do it justice, Summitt!!!!!!
  • mAnDa
    or make it into 2 movies..like what they gonna do with d last of Harry Potter..
  • OMG i totally agree, the more i think about them making breaking dawn in t a movie the more im hoping for a two parter, at least then we have some chance of getting full and proper detail that we want, theer is NO WAY on Gods earth they can squeez Breaking Dawn into a hour and 45 mins!!
  • TwilightChick35
    I TOTALLY agree....there will be people lining up around the corner to watch it no matter how long it is and I agree that whether it is 3 4 or 5 hours long I would watch it!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • agava [04/09]
    She's a witch, BURN HER!!!


    Ok that's all I had to add. LOL
  • Wow! I am so surprised that there are so many negative comments about Hardwick and that line!!

    I liked it, it was a good way of showing how Edward had regained a sense of fun by spending time with Bella, and a sense of being young again... I liked it.

    As for Hardwick, I liked her direction, I loved the colour, the casting, the way she allowed the actors to push boundaries and improv. I think the movie will date well as she didn't show any trends or fashions...

    I thought her treatment of the story was well done, it will never be the book, but what movie can be?
  • TwilightChick35
    Well as for me, it isn't just that it wasnt like the book its that she changed things and made them total opposite of that which was in the book and made changes to things that shouldnt have been for scenes that need to be in future books...like the way Jacob was supposed to tell her about Edward and his family instead of her figuring it out....because of the treaty and such ya know???
  • But those are script issues - and that is Melissa Rosenburgs decision! I presume time is a problem when making a movie from a book, and if they kept everything as it should be the movie would be 14 hours long!!!

    I really had no problem with the adaptation, but maybe its because I know how hard it can be to capture everything needed to complete the story in an hour and a half!!!
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
    **slams head on table repeatedly**

    OH FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY!!!

    Will we EVER get away from her and her stupid ideas?? "Get ready for liftoff"??? Really, CAtherine? In case you forgot, this was not a movie about a damn space ship or monkeys....

    I swear to God, that line is going to haunt us for the rest of our lives...

    And why the hell is she going around telling people what her other "brilliant ideas" for the line were?? Doesn't she know that people hated that line? Leave it to her to think that people making fun of it means something good...

    Judas priest....I cannot stand that woman... I think I would like to literally take a spider-monkey and beat her with it...

    She just needs to shut the f*ck up about those damn lines....YES CATHERINE, WE ALL KNOW YOU ARE AN IDIOT....now, quit proving that point over and over again by opening that hole in your face and talking...

    ***deep calming breaths***
    ..i swear, nmm.org just puts stuff on here about her to get me worked up. LOL

    Okay..I am calm...Sorry to offend people, but she just REALLY irritates me...
  • just_bella TeamPinkSleepingBag
    Like always, you say EXACTLY what we're all thinking!

    and c'mon effing, you don't ever "offend" anyone :)
  • TwiAddict
    Effing, you rock!! i always love your comments!!! you say what i wish i could put into words!! catherine hardwicke is ridiculous!! even the cast knows; they just don't wanna say it, but we all know that their ranting and raving over chris compared to their scant comments about catherine's "clutter" is really means "CATHERINE SUCKS COMPARED TO CHRIS!"
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    OMG I almost laughed my @ss off. I love you Effing...really I do. For some reason everytime I read your comments it plays out in my head in Stewie's voice from The Family Guy.....god I'm so screwed up. LOL
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
    OMG!!

    Kassie, you have found the secret passage to my heart!!

    I f*cking LOVE Stewie!!!

    LOL
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    It must be our sarcastic personalities or something....but Stewie is always there when I'm reading on these posts.

    *wondering if i really should be committed*
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
    Nah, anything that I agree with you on could not possibly be cause for being committed.....

    Right??

    LOL
  • TwilightChick35
    I think one of the things I don't want to here is how she held auditions at her house and in her bedroom...it's just too friggin creepy for me and in the comentary she talks about how the native american boys in the beach scene stayed at her house for the premere...WTF man
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
    I know! I remember hearing that...I loved how after she says it, Kristen and Pattinson are just akwardly quiet. LMAO!!!
  • TwiAddict
    wow. she actually did that?!?!?! she was a creeper in my mind before that, but NOW. WHOA. beyond WEIRD. can't blame kstew and rpattz for bein alittle creeped after that one.... and effing, like kassie, i hear stewies voice whenever i read your comments for some reason!!! its gata be the sarcasm and biting humor in your words!!! (thats a good thing btw)
  • ItsRobert_Effing_Pattinson
    Aw, Thanks!!

    I love Stewie - he is so devilishly funny!! LOL
  • TwiAddict
    btw, lovin ur avatar!! i have that pic as my display on my fone cuz i HEART rob pattz too!
  • twiromantic
    haha i kind of like the spider monkey line they used in the movie. it's adorablely dorky
  • agava [04/09]
    Oh shuckssssss I almost forgot CH existed....

    gah..... and there goes that spider monkey again!!! Geezzzzz will this ever stop????

    **groans**

    You know the only thing they should have done is cut this scene off this movie or just leave the "do you trust me" line.

    ***reads the alternative lines***

    well, if that's any consolation - it could've been worse:

    "Wrap your legs around me like a spider monkey"

    WTH????
  • Helpless_Delicious
    She might have been the director and she might have read the books but I doubt that woman understood the relationship between edward and bella!!!
  • RealMenGlitter
    I agree Helpless! I just watched the commentary last night because the lack of new news was making me CRAZY and Catherine was explaining how crucial the biology scene was with the microscopes because it is the first time the audience can envision them as a couple and the sparks begin to fly......uhhhh......no catherine!! no no no!!!! Edward just got back from a much needed trip so he didnt kill the girl!!!!!!! He was curious about Bella because he couldnt read her mind and still trying so hard not to destroy her for his family's sake! No wonder Catherine shot down the criticism that Bella and Edward's relationship moved too fast in the movie! She was thinking they were in love in biology!
    And why couldnt she find a line in the book instead of spider monkey? Like from the meadow when he promises he will never hurt her...ANYTHING Edwardish
  • Helpless_Delicious
    I know RMG!!! That woman needs be to be struck with a twilight knowledge stick or something since the stupid stick they were using broke! I think she lives here in texas or has a house I would so volunteer to lecture her on everything twilight... Free of charge of course.

    *ring ring...hello*

    *hello..hey catherine this is helpless...I have a 3 o'clock appointment to lecture you on how you f***ed up twilight and to explain the love and meaning of it*

    *right ill be there soon*
  • RealMenGlitter
    LMAO!!! How generous of you! Way to take one for the team! While you are there do you mind asking her why...
    1. She changed the order of events when they were perfect to begin with
    2. Why bloodtyping was not in the movie or 20 Questions or Edward asking Bella to sit with him... just my favorite scenes of the book that show a relationship forming that somehow didnt make it to the movie
    3. Why no "I love yous" were spoken
    4. "Spider Monkey"...enough said
    5. Im sorry was Edward glittering or sweating profusely
    6. Why was Bella as pale as the vamps
    7. If the special effects make the movie cheesy just say no...Edward's running around and big jumps were pitiful
    8. Why did Edward tell Bella they shouldnt be friends when they werent friends yet?
    9. Why did the relationship move so freakin fast? Where was the love, the epic Bella and Edward relationship?


    Oh and do you mind duct taping her mouth closed before you leave so she can stop taking all the credit?

    The End...thanks Helpless! Please add the many things Im sure I have forgotten!

    Oh and steal her cat...we need some revenge!
  • Helpless_Delicious
    LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!

    *hand over mouth to muffle laughter before I get fired*

    Awesome...thanks for the list... Ill make sure to update it!
  • 911 Turbo
    If we MUST have the tree climbing scene...

    Then why couldn't he have just said "Hold on tight" the end and forget the spider-monkey thing?

    I am actually embarassed for R & K whenever I see that scene...
  • AshleyAnne5
    I am happy Rob chose that line... although i am not sure what a spider monkey is... it did seem like the best option.

    and going along with the "buddy" one... Bella should have called him Ed or Eddie... he would have been so mad!
  • Green_Twilight
    Spider monkey was so the best choice =:o) its my favourite line from the movie
  • "Buddy"?!!!! Why would Bella ever call Edward that? So stupid, Rob actually picked the best line given the choices. However, he should have just made one up on his own. Apparently, Catherine can't even come up with a two-second dialogue that even makes sense!
  • i_like_em_sparkly (Sparkly)
    LMAO
    I didn't think it was possible but the other lines were even WORSE than the spider monkey one!
    Poor Rob!
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    Yes...I know...I totally agree that it was the least lame line he could have picked. Catherine is going around acting like she gave him Oscar-worthy lines or something. Like she's so proud of the lines she made up for him...UGH Give me a break.

    *sticks fingers down throat*
  • ♥Love...Pattinson♥ (LTCB)
    Sparkly is that you? Are you stalking Rob in NYC? If your not.... Why Not Woman!!! LOL!!!
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    looks like sparkly went incognito...LOL
  • Hey^^
    Erm.. new girl here, but whatever.. Okay, not new to the site but to commenting. This will be my first one. haha. Erm.. Yeah..
    but.. anyway.. haha.. wth is up with those lines??? xD
    I'm soo happy Rob picked "You better hold on tight, spidermonkey" 'cause that's at least cute :)
  • EdwardsLullaby
    this was the only good one:
    Edward: You’re not scared of heights, are you?
    Bella: Not that I know of …

    i mean seriously, prepare for lift off??? what are we, five and watching a rocketship movie? come on, hardwicke.
  • Green_Twilight
    Haha, yeh I thought that one was a bit odd!
  • ♥Krisbert76♥
    She didn't give him many choices .. lol..
  • Prepare for lift-off. Like what the heck? Robert must have been like, "Edward cannot be this lame." Hahahah.
  • kate_klutz

    YES... I think I've seen this story a dozen times in the past couple of weeks....
    Catherine... holding on to the hype of the movie as long as she can....

    *pulls Catherine's fingers off of the hype one by one*

    You.... have to.... let go... sometime.... CATHERINE.....
  • TheStupidLamb
    LMAO!!!
  • snuffiesnoop
    LOL those lines were so bad. I wasn't crazy for the spider monkey line but I didn't hate it and now I'm just thankful she let Rob choose what he wanted to say because she is wierd!
  • destined to be a cullen
    "spider-monkey" is so cool and unique! when you think about twilight, at one point in time, you'll remember how dashing-ly rob said "hold on tight, spider-monkey" and the next thing you know, you just found yourself smiling.. *smiling*
  • "spider-monkey" was hilarious and a little out of place. At some point in time, I will think of the suave Rob and how he said the funniest line of the movie, and definitely smile!

    *just smiled again at it*

    Oh.. what a line..
  • destined to be a cullen
    hehe.. i know, it was a little hilarious as what you've mentioned.. a funny line but unique.. i mean, compare with the "prepare for liftoff".. duh! what the hell is that! haha..
  • LMAO, I couldn't agree with you more! :0)
  • Teresa
    The spider money part is my least favorite line in the movie. It's so embarrassing and cheesy. And it doesn't sound like something Edward would say.

    Way to go Rob ; )

    pic of Rob in NYC on robertpattinson.org
  • "Prepare for liftoff"???

    I think they maybe should have just stuck with, "you're not afraid of heights, are you?"--and just left it at that.

    LOL
  • Kim1524 (Fanfic Junkie)

    Oh i've so got this covered :)
  • TwilightSagaLove
    There was another choice about his hair acting as an airbag, and the liftoff one was cool, but I'm 100% sure that the spider-monkey one he chose was the best.
  • Tara_Kay
    I'm glad he picked the one he did, its the least dumbest one. I wasn't crazy about any of them. Altho, rob makes anything sound sexy!!!!
  • CATHERINE Cuende desert is up!
  • Rob_is_my_Kryptonite
    Rob picked the BEST line! That is probably one of my favorite lines in the movie! The other one's sound super cheesy or boring!!! GOOD JOB ROB :)
  • IHowl2 - The ONLY Samske Girl
    Okay I don't blame Rob for using the Spider Monkey now!

    "Lift off"?? Was he preparing to fly??? WTF??

    I am waiting for the "UP UP and AWAY" to come next!!!

  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    LOL!

    "And then! And then" (from the movie Dude's Where is My Car)

    Yes! And then Bella would wake up bruised and think that it was a result of passionate love making, when in fact I came in there and beat the cr@p out of her for breaking Jake's heart and for not using a freaking rubber!!

  • CullenWannabe
    I do like the one about being scared of heights. But of the others, I think Rob chose the best one. I'm not that fond of the whole climbing through trees scene in the movie, so I try not to think about it too much.
  • The other were bloody too, so this was the best of them
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    Prepare for liftoff!!!!!??????
    And I thought Spider-Monkey was terrible!

    Oh GOD! Who let Catherine make up those lines!? There is a reason she is not the writer!!!
  • F
    i liked the spidermonkey. bt u r rite about the "Prepare for liftoff!!!!!??????" was bad
  • TwiAddict
    HAHAHAHAHA!! THANK YOU! i was dying throughout the movie, thinking "who wrote that god awful line!!?!" but now i get it. rob made the SMART choice and went with the LEAST weird line. i mean, the got a good grip isnt that bad but BELLA's response is despicable: "no chance of that BUDDY?!?!?!?!!?!?!" wtf. thank GOD new moon is going to be 10 times better....
  • lol spider monkey hilarious hopefully in nm is not like this, but this sure cracks me up it just brings memories good times
  • Ciggy_
    Considering Edward was born in like 1901 I highly doubt he would EVER in a million friggen years say Spider Monkey...I think "Hold On " would have been sufficient....smoke another one Catherine! Geez....
  • peace,<3 ,fire,ice &compromise
    oh yeah definitely., why the hell would a person like edward with an old soul personality say " you better hold on tight spider monkey" i was so embarassed for him when i heard that. and ROSALIe saying " thatsmy monkey man" seriously? no seriously?!!! wtf. good god she's not making any of the other movies!
  • Lift-off!?!?!!! I know, that was the wierdest thing you could come up with to say. Edward would never say that, so stupid...I do kinda like the first set of lines with the "You're not scared of heights..." is okay. Cause Edward might ask that cause he can't read her mind...but it doesn't make sense for Bella to respond that she doesn't know if she's scared of heights. You either are or you're not.
  • wow, how sad is it that the "you better hold on tight, spider monkey" was the best line- given the options?

    Oh, Catherine Hardwicke- thanks for the first movie, but good riddance! LMAO
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    h'asta la vista, baby!

    *pulls out hand grenades and throws them at Catherine*

    Now stop coming up with mindless blather about how cool your movie was!
  • "My name is Catherine Hardwicke and I'm sooo awesome!"

    *rolls eyes*

    Chris Weitz, you are my new hero!
  • TeamGreyT-Shirt
    I remember being bummed that CH was not returning? NOW I thank God she isn't.
  • I was, too. I liked her blue tint. But after reading the comparisons on what the Twi-cast say about CH vs. CW- THANK GOODNESS.
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    AMEN... we'll just have to appreciate the first one for what it was.... *sigh*.... Chris rocks though, can't wait to see the rest!
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    LMAO.
    Seriously!
    Poor Rob, he was probably going "she's kidding, right? Oh well, eenie, meenie..."
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    He probably had a WTF look on his face when she handed him those options!
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    LMAO!!! Yes, and I'd be willing to be he had several WTF moments during the filming of that one.

    Biology class, when she first walked in and he smelled her... couldn't they have done that better? Come on.
  • TeamGreyT-Shirt
    You know I envsioned that scene how Stephenie had it in Midnight Sun, the many ways Edward envision killing Bella, why they did not show that?
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    ME TOO!!!
    It doesn't cost a thing to get that mood going...

    And I kept thinking they should have made it more obvious that he could read minds, like whispers of what every one was thinking while he looked around, and then once his eyes were on Bella, nothing.

    How much does THAT cost, Catherine???? HUH!?
  • allytwilove
    Technically, Twilight was in Bella's perspective. That would have been illogical to do the whispering thing.
  • Carissa
    they couldn't have done that because the whole Twilight Saga is from Bella's point of view. They tried to drop hints here and there even though I agree they could have done more.. what exactly? I have no idea, maybe they didn't either.
    The hints were...
    The first time we see him, walking through the cafeteria, they zoom in on him while he's walking pass Jess and Bella talking about him and he smirks.
    Then when he is across the parking lot and he hears Mike talking to Bella about prom.. Edward then approaches Bella about it and she ask him how he knew that.

    Theres probably 1 or 2 more I didnt catch.


    ... but as for those lines... Catherine Hardwicke... oh my.. thank god for Chris Weitz!
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    Yeah, from Bella's POV I guess it is tricky, I think when you go from a book like that to a movie, there's bound to be disappointments! ;)
  • Carissa
    Oh, and I saw the movie before the books and I was actually able to catch on to it. Maybe I was just lucky, because I know others who were still lost lol. The movie is what convinced me to read them:D
  • big bad wolf girl <bbwg>
    that's what i was thinking! in the movie he just looked like some old creepy guy
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    What are you talking about BBWG? He always looks creepy! LOL True though, it was not the same...
  • big bad wolf girl <bbwg>
    see what I mean? maybe they could of put in jessicas voice insulting bella in her mind that would of made it funnier
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    LOL! flp!
    He would have looked insane talking to himself! hhahaha
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    yeah but if you hadn't read the book, you had NO IDEA he could read minds until he told her in the restaurant....

    another WTF moment.
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    Flp, the sad person who saw that movie and did not read the books would be thinking WTF the entire time! LOL
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    I know...the entire movie i was explaining thing to both the people that went with me cause neither of them had read the books.....ERGGHHHH
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    HA! Got me there!
    I was really glad I'd read the books before seeing it... and come to think of it, my hubby WAS asking me a lot of questions afterwards to get clarification....
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    LOL!!!!!!! hahaha That scene was so bad! He looked like he was gonna puke! The MTV awards version of it was HILARIOUS!
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    I know! As defensive as I am about him.... I laughed pretty good at the spoof at the MTV awards.... he did a good job.
  • twilight saga fever!
    "better hold on tight spider monkey" *gaspppp!! hottnneesssssss*
  • MCJesus
    that's actually my mom's favorite part of the movie, haha
  • UrHoldIsPermanentNUnbreakable
    This just shows how a sloow of an news day it is ....
  • Ohbabyrob!
    I second that... Anyone else notice that we haven't had pictures of Rob since his second day in NY???
  • Ohbabyrob!
    I feel like I am going into withdrawl!!!
  • Anne
    I was all against for THAT spider monkey line til I saw the options.
    Dorky much??? Haha.

    At least that stood out more.
  • Abby!!
    hahaha those are cheesy :D
  • 30yearoldtwifan
    I still cant see Edward saying Spider Monkey, but its to late now. Hopefully Summit has leraned there lesson to stay close to the book :-)
  • Not into the Spider Monkey much either.. but it is, what it is. And yes, I hope Summit has learned their lesson - although I think it attributes back to Catherine...she's a little kooky... please don't hate me to saying so b/c everyone knows she's a little ...different ;0) lol
  • twilight saga fever!
    i love the spider monkey~ i found that really cuteeee~>< squeallllllll~
  • Twihard_Lamb
    Prepare for Liftoff!!!!! Thank You Rob for NOT using that one lol. That would have been awful :)
  • the_nina
    That's amazing. His choice became one of the most quoted lines. It's completely out of nowhere.

    (Also, I'm BACK! I'm so glad to be home with a computer and with my Twilight news! HORRAY!)
  • DANIELLE
    That choice was the perfect one.
    I even put them on my twilight converses from SAndira.
  • ToriCullen xx
    his choice was greaaat !!!
  • twilight saga fever!

    darn. where are my parachute pants- they add to the effect. I'll switch to the Roger Rabbit.

    *co worker walks by*

    erm.... I had a bug on me?

    LMFAO!!! Nice RIMR! Nice!! Very smooth....

    *does the running man with Kimberlina*

    Excellent!
  • ♥Love...Pattinson♥ (LTCB)
    ROTFLMAO!!! Can I get a "What what!!!"

    This how we do it!!! LOL!!!
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    YES!

    How many times to we have to hear this story????
    WE KNOW, CATHERINE!!! You thought of a bunch of cheesy lines, blah blah blah, gave it to Rob, blah blah blah... he chose the best of the worst lines ever and that's what made it into your un-necessary scene that took up space that could have been a much BETTER scene had you USED THE BOOK FOR REFERENCE!

    *breathes heavily for several minutes*

    Sorry about that.... she just makes me so.......

    *makes fists*

    Angry!!!!
  • ♥Love...Pattinson♥ (LTCB)
    Yeah.. he didn't have much to choose from... they were all BAD!!!! Yes the book for reference would of

    helped Catherine but then again she thought... "IT WOULD BE WAY COOL".... Two words... Narly..NOT!!!!!

    LMAO!!!
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    That woman thinks everything is "WAY COOL" it's like she's living out her life stuck in the mindframe of her movie"Lords of Dogtown".
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    YEP, quite tired of hearing her say that too... for the love of....
  • OhEdward (mouthy since 04/09)
    I'm tired of everything having to do with the spider monkey line.

    It was bad.

    There were no good alteratives. Maybe someone should have consulted the book.

    Can we move on now? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease!!!???
  • ♥Love...Pattinson♥ (LTCB)
    Yes let's move on.....but before we do... "WACK!!!!" (hitting Catherine with surf board from

    La Push Beach).... I feel better now... LMAO!!!!
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    *rolls eyes*

    Fiinnneeee.....

    Next thread...
  • the_nina
    Yeah, it took me a few watches to get used to the whole 'taking Bella tree-climbing' scenes. The cinematography is breathtaking but... it's so dangerous. Edward wouldn't take Bella tree climbing. She'd die.
  • Jennifer
    You said it perfectly! I think we ALL agree with you!
  • SpankMe_MrsP >TEAM ISLE ESME<
    *scracthes head* i always wondered wat was up wiv de random spidermonkey references...HAHA :D
  • I feel the same way....I mean, the song is beautiful but she could have used it in some other way...Maby the RIGHT ONE?
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    Exactly Little Angel.
    What could that have hurt?
  • I am a little upset of Stephenie for approving to this so casually...I mean, it is HER book right? All Catherine had to do was make a movie by following the plot she created. Was that so hard? And the original bedroom scene was really sexy. I really expected that one:(.
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    I expected a lot more too - On the record, loved the movie, truly... but she completely ruined the meadow scene too.... sigh....

    I know, it's done, nothing we can do about it now.... this is why I re-read the book.... so I can watch the movie in my head. ;)
  • I did the same. The movie in my head is a lot better than some scenes form the one she directed. I really believe New Moon will be a lot better 'cause Chris has an eye for beaty.
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    I'm counting on it.

    Still quite anxious for David Slade & Eclipse.... that was my favorite book....

    *SIGH*
  • Me too...cause if you're not very carefull it's possible to miss the part where Zafrina is trying to teach Bella to lower her inner shield(me for example:)), the first time I read it)...So at the end you're like "What is she trying to do?" and then "How did she do it?"). And I can't wait to see that part on screen: the surprize, edward's face, the memories, the happiness...the last line: "And then we continued blissfully into this small but perfect piece of our forever."..
  • I'm sure they wont object:))
  • Kassielovesthecullens
    Lets just hope Summit confirms that they ARE making Breaking Dawn....I won't believe it til I hear it from them (and will be stewing in madness until they do)
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    *sniff*

    I know I can't wait.... it BETTER freaking be in the movie!

    *growls*
  • Well...mine is Breaking Dawn. I just can't wait for the wedding and to see how she'll look as a vampire...the pregnancy, Remesmee, the battle, she shield..OMG...It will be Awasome
  • FL95 (JoJo)
    I freaking loved the end of that book when she let him read her thoughts.... I felt like it ended where it all started for them with her saying "don't move" just like he did to her when he first kissed her....

    *Swooons!*
