Dakota Fanning (Jane) appeared on the Jay Leno Show last Thursday night to promote New Moon.  Dakota had to ‘earn her plug’  and was quizzed on the Twilight Saga.   Of course Dakota passes and shows a clip from New Moon.

Dakota is adorable!

    Jane was great..Dakota played her really well..

    i think the whole volturi was just like in the book..especially marcus and ARo!!..Marcus was extra creepy and weird and looked bored..lool perfect, ARo..the sheen machine was excellent best actor there!!
  • smexi galore
    yay dakota!!! she seriously scared me in new moon..
  • BooTay aka HOTGUY w/ UNICORN
    ROFLMAO omg your avi is just epic, hahahaha almost had me laughing as bad as that previous post with the "How Twilight Should have ended"
  • pinktwilightlover
    lol, me too! She did an awesome job. In real life she is such a cutie, and in the movie she became Jane 100 percent, scary and evil..
  • Ahhh, Dakota. She rocked it as Jane. Every time I see her now, all I can think about is her evil smirk and the one word she said that gave me chills....."Pain". *shudders*
  • Rocktheboat
    how freakin awesome was that? I love how she says Pain *shudders* you look at her and shes so creeptastic yet has a grace about her. total perfection!
  • AngelicaPattinson :D
    1st (:

    2nd time today! woo!
    lol
    Dakota has grown so fast haha i remember seeing her her as a small kid like 7 i think.
  • FefiLovesTaycob♥Strippward!
    yaayyy i'm 3rd!!! =D

    WTH was up with the smoke??
  • DAKOTA!!!

    She was by far the best person to play Jane hands down!
  • OhEdward (The Original)
    Absolutely, positively - no question about it. Her performance was incredible!
  • Rocktheboat
    weirdest thing...i actually pictured dakota as jane before she was even cast! She just worked!!!
  • ohmy_feathers ♥ [since 03/09]
    OMG I LOVED Dakota as Jane!! She could not have done a better jpb. Cant wait to see her in Eclipse and Breaking Dawn!!!! :D
  • I think there should be another movie saga about the Volturi ESPECIALLY about Jane! She was so awesome.
  • Crackward Effs Bruiseward
    Yes!! Make a movie about Jane and her twin Alec. I'm curious to see how 2 people so "young" were made into vampires. Great back-story alert!
  • I thought I saw a bit of the back story about Jane & Alec on SM's web site I think or on Lexicon's bio's on all of the characters. I think Aro wanted special set of skills & had that Spanish dude who's married to Carmen to hunt them down. Think that was in BD.

    But that would be an AWESOME thing to watch. The Twins back story!
  • Crackward Effs Bruiseward
    SM's website? I'll have to check that out again later. I think we're only getting four, possibly five movies and then they are done.
  • ohmy_feathers ♥ [since 03/09]
    That would be so cool! I wonder if Summit will continue the series without SM writing a book first...? Maybe they can get with some of the fanfic folks! LOL
  • BooTay aka HOTGUY w/ UNICORN
    YAY Dakota!!! I love this girl!! I still can't get over the blatant red contacts though..I think it's overkill
  • Crackward Effs Bruiseward
    I thought they looked more tomato-red instead of blood red. I liked how they made Aro's eyes look. He gave me the creeps.
  • BooTay aka HOTGUY w/ UNICORN
    Now you got me thinking about ketchup....HAHAHA.....but seriously....I haven't seen the movie yet ( yea yea loser I know ) so I don't recall if they Volturis went outside and if they did...hopefully their eye color changes ( like Edward's does ) so that they actually blend it with humans...coz I don't know about you guys.... I would freak out if I saw someone with eyes like that...or just think 'what a total freak..who wears read contacts?" hehehe unless it was Halloween or something
  • Crackward Effs Bruiseward
    Ahhh you haven't seen it yet?! Ok I won't say anything else.
  • MrsSpunkRansom
    Dakota was awesome as Jane.

    Freaky little evil girl, right there. LOL
  • yay for new post!!!
    too bad i'm too tired to watch it.
    yet not tired enough to not comment....
  • BooTay aka HOTGUY w/ UNICORN
    hahaha just watch it. It's actually not bad....the smoke makes it funny...plus I'm trying to get a new rumor started about Taylor and Dakota ( because Taylor deserves a nice girl under 18, hahaha )
  • they were about to get carried away w/ the fog.
    i'm glad i didn't watch this last night..they honestly showed enough spoilers that if people don't see the movie they haven't missed much....wait you haven't seen it yet have you? don't watch any spoilers!!!
  • BooTay aka HOTGUY w/ UNICORN
    rofl I'm okay with spoilers..It's not like I don't know what really happens in the story, lol. I'm gonna go see it no matter what eventually :-) So no worries there
  • lol, ok i warned you...
    hahahahahaha
  • lol i just saw the edited version of your comment:
    "because Taylor deserves a nice girl under 18, hahaha"
    i see your point but taylor's about to be 18 soon & i want him to get his grown & sexy on..so...he needs to dump t.swift b/c she's still 15 in her mind. jus sayin that girl does not act like an almost 20 year old.
  • FTW - Bring on Remember Me!
    haha it's weird to think her and Kristen are the same age! TOTAL opposites lol
  • yep that's because taylor doesn't act her age...
    which is why i normally see her w/ people younger than her..hence her & my taylor *tear* & her being bff's w/ selena? which i'm still confused about?
    but yeah her & kristen are like night & day!!
  • FTW - Bring on Remember Me!
    Yeah she's a total sweetheart but I didn't even know she was 19 until a month ago. I always assumed she was around 16 or 17 based on how she acts.
  • *stands up & claps*
    exactly.
    point taken.
  • twilightsagaaaax
    Dakota Fanning is an excellent actress and I absolutely loved her in New Moon. I have already seen New Moon twice, one at the midnight screening and one at the opening day, and I thought she did an amazing job. I just love her, my favourite Volturi guard member. For those who have seen New Moon, how many times did you scream when Jacob came on with no shirt? Me, I lose track after the hundredth. What did you all think of New Moon?
  • Don't think I screamed once but happy clapped a few times.
  • wannabeEsme
    ditto!
    Ha, we are so civilised!
    Lots of happy clapping. LOL
  • Crackward Effs Bruiseward
    I watched this yesterday. Dakota is scary good as Jane and I love her shoes.
  • whats with the smoke? haha. love the outfit of dakota there.
    hmm.. team voluri itis! heEhe.. xD i heart dakota even before she was casted as jane and so after watching the film that made me i loove her more. :) she totally pull it off.
  • IloveyouEdward
    love her (L)
  • FTW - Bring on Remember Me!
    Completely missed this. Thanks for posting!
  • twilightsagaaaax
    BooTay aka HOTGUY w/ UNICORN, I like your plan. Dakota and Taylor :) Or, seeing how I'm under 18, me and Taylor. Whatever works best ;p
  • BooTay aka HOTGUY w/ UNICORN
    HAHAHA....well....let's just stick to the Dakota plan for now eh? :-P Otherwise, I'd be fighting over Taylor with you and we can't have that. But I really truly was hoping that they would meet during the filming and "hit it off" somehow???? She's really blossoming and just carries herself so well ( seems so intelligent and down to earth normal ) and well....let's not get into Taylor's "blossoming" rawrrrr lol
  • twilightsagaaaax
    Haha, yeah, I agree. Too bad he is dating Taylor Swift. But, its okay, its not like they can get married or anything because then they would both be Taylor Lautner. Dakota Fanning is just amazing, I completely agree.
  • lol you're still stuck on Lautner & Fanning hitting it off?
    don't give up hope..it could happen...it is hollywood.
    those people go through relationships like i go through commenting up here. smh. only been up here for 2 months & have about 1500 comments..
    but back to the subject..yeah dakota & taylor would be so cute together...if only...
  • TeamRotation (Meg1)
    Aww, I remember everyone being concerned over her playing Jane! I always thought she'd be great, and she was perfect as Jane! And she completely looks like my cousin when she was 15. haha.

    Hey.. does anyone know if Rob was on Jimmy Fallon? I kind of think not, since I didn't really find anything, but figured I'd ask anyway. His interview with Kristen was funny, and his interview with Taylor was freakin' hysterical.. I could only imagine what it would be like with Rob. haha.
  • Crackward Effs Bruiseward
    Nope he wasn't there. I wish he would've been since Fallon had Kristen throw footballs at him and raced Taylor through the studio. I wonder if he would've had Rob do anything crazy.
  • TeamRotation (Meg1)
    Oh, I'm sure he would have! Maybe a regular running race... since Edward's all about vamp speed. hehe. It would be so funny to see Rob racing somebody! Jimmy was really fun with those interviews.

    I told my mom to watch the Taylor interview with Fallon and she was in hysterics. lol.
  • Crackward Effs Bruiseward
    I'm glad Fallon didn't stick with the basic sit-behind-the-desk and ask boring questions routine. He and Ellen had the best interviews of the week.
  • twilightsagaaaax
    Haha, I agree with you both. They are hilarious!
  • Nope, he wasn't there. Maybe he was "bothered" by the idea

    *thinks about Jimmy acting as Robert being bothered*

    *bursts into laughter*
  • Riss<3Twilight-TeamBELLA
    Didn't think she was all that scary. She did a good job though.
    I didn't like how she said "pain" but I understand why, it saved an explanation to non readers.
  • I actually LOVED when she said that word lol She said it so angelic-like but it was so....so.....EVIL
  • i've said it once & i'll say it again the only volturi that creeped me out was marcus..*shudders* now he had the creepy old man thing down-pact

    was i the only one that loved felix & his over-aggressiveness?
    i mean i would love for him...
    um...yea dakota did ok...she didn't scare me at all though.
    i wanted her to be more mad she couldn't hurt bella, but whatever it is what it is.
  • twilightsagaaaax
    Once again, I completely agree with you. Marcus looked like an old man :| and I thought Felix was hot with the whole teeth-baring thing ;p I reckon Jane should have been more angry that she couldn't hurt Bella, like in the book. I think they did pretty good though :D
  • yeah although Aro didn't look how i imagined...michael did a great job portraying him...he acted just as imagined Aro to act!!!
  • Riss<3Twilight-TeamBELLA
    Yea I get what you're saying. I was actually creeped out by Aro and Marcus. I know a lot didn't like Aro, but he gave me the same feeling I had while reading. Like he was insane and guinely entertained my Bella and Edward. His laugh *shudders* ahhh I don't even want to think about it.. creepy.. just creepy.
    Marcus, at the end when he's standing there and just holding his hands up all wierd.. ehhh another creepy moment!
  • yes they both did a great job!!! that is definitely 2 things i loved about that scene.
  • BooTay aka HOTGUY w/ UNICORN
    P.S. I think I like Alice's hair in Twilight better. I heard Rosalie's wig was awful??
  • I thought Rosalie's wig looked really great. I wish my hair was as thick as the wig & would keep a curl like that.

    *runs hands through iron flat hair*

    Maybe my hair stylist can give me the Rosalie hair cut?
  • no her wig looked good. better than what i've seen of bella's in eclipse.
    & jasper's...well i think we've all seen japser's..lmao
  • wannabeEsme
    I havent stopped laughing at Jasper since I saw the movie. Seriously if a guy looked like that in school, you would know something was up!
    ROFL!!
  • yes he does not look like a teen at all...& that scene in class when everybody looks at edward boy does he stand out. he looks like a vampire i would be scared of him seriously.
  • twilightsagaaaax
    I like Rosalie's wig. It suits her. Alice is my favourite chick in the saga and I think her hair looked better in New Moon. Wait to you see her in the movie :)
  • FTW - Bring on Remember Me!
    I like Alice's hair in Twilight better too.
    But I actually liked Rosalie's wig. I didn't really have a problem with the way the vampires looked in this one.
  • twilightsagaaaax
    Just a radnom fact, Ashley Greene actually died her hair before filming New Moon so this might have something to do with why some people liked Alice's hair better in Twilight.
  • lewiecullen
    THOSE SERIOUSLY HAVE TO BE THE EASIEST QUESTIONS EVER!! haha

    new moon was the best thing ever!!

    Spoiler:
    Did everyone notice Bella's Wedding Ring in Alice's vision??

    I DID AND IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!!!

    Edward is amazing!
  • OMG noooooooo!!! I didn't notice the ring!!! I was stuck on Edward and Bella's "peasant" wardrobe and the sparkling skin lol
  • lewiecullen
    yeah aha, i thought it would have been from her first hunt, because in BD she's wearing a silky inappropriate dress, but she had topaz eyes, so i guess not! ahah
  • megilegin ( team "flippy" )
    Wait!!! She was wearing the wedding ring???? Are you sure??
  • lewiecullen
    100% soo pretty
  • Givenny_F Your Guitar!/SAINTS!
    Well...i haven`t seen the movie yet, but I think I saw the wedding ring in a card of the new moon boardgame. It looked good.
  • Becki_Cullen
    How on EARTH did you notice that?!
    x] You have an eye for detail, I must say.
    Sadly, I did not see that : (
    I really want to now! :P
  • TeamKristen(L)RumpyPumpy
    i noticed it. It's a heart, diamond. it's beautiful.

    I can't wait til she is officially Bella Cullen.
  • megilegin ( team "flippy" )
    "Bella Cullen" OMG THAT SOUNDS SOOOO AWSOME!!!!!LOL

    I feel like reading BD now... xP
  • Twilight Space Cadets <3 NM
    no I did not!! Now I HAVE to see it again... hmmm

    something I did notice.. when Jake was looking at Bella's scar.. omg that thing was scary looking! Talk about battle scars...

    You really do have to watch movies several times before you notice EVERYTHING
  • I love her and loved Jane!

    :D NMM again? yes pls!
  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    LMFAO @ Oscar Myer... LMFAO

    LOL Aww Dakota bless her heart she disappeared for a bit behind the smoke.... LOL She's awesome... CREEPTACULAR in NEW MOON.. just how I expected her to be.. LOVE IT!
  • twilightsagaaaax
    Alright guys, I have to ask......

    Team Edward?

    or

    Team Jacob?

    :D
  • lewiecullen
    In new moon...Jacob (but only in the movie) and only when edwards gone.
    but besides that.
    EDWARD ALL THE WAY!!!
  • uh...team melissa rosenberg should be fired before BD!!!!!
    who's with me!!!
  • twilightsagaaaax
    Mmm, not sure. I thought she did alright.
  • TeamKristen(L)RumpyPumpy
    Team Edward simply because the guy would die and risk everything for Bella. His motive is just to show her that he loves her more then his own life. The romantic type is such a turn on.

    I do like Taylor as Jacob though, props to him for being Jacob so well.
  • Wolfi ♥(TEAM LEAH)♥
    TEAM LEAH...!!!

    you all know she's the best!..she would kick edward and jacobs @ss anyday anytime!!..lol
  • twilightluver216
    OMG! Dakota looks amazing here!!!! I loooovvveeed her dress (even though it was a little short) and I want those shoes!!!! And the whole fog thing was really funny! But she has a weird laugh... oh well I really like her!
  • Givenny_F Your Guitar!/SAINTS!
    lol...Kate Gosseling as bella´s mom???
  • waitingforleghitch
    did anyone notice the birthday scene was cut short. They did not talk about the birthday cake.
  • claracitti
    yes really I haven't noticed but the "there's a cake too" scene was cut out.
  • claracitti
    wow she is really awesome and beautiful.I like her:)
  • kalcullen
    First, I think Dakota is really sweet and funny, and I'm happy she plays Jane.
    Second, definitly Team Edward. I don't like those interpretations with the affection for the bad boy and all that sh*t. Edward isn't a bad boy. At the begining she's affectionate by him, I agree, because he's mysterious and beautifull and all that. But what makes her love him is the fact that he's so much different than everybody else - very intelligent, funny, calm and mature.
    Most of you are Team Jacob because Edward leaves Bella in New Moon, but you forget why he does it. He's ready to lose everything for her, even to let her for own good. Let me ask you something - do you think Jacob is ready to make that sacrifice, is he mature enough??? I don't think so. With all theses scenes all the time, including the wedding.
    And finally, Edward is the one she can't live without, obviously :)
  • I love Dakota! She was perfect for Jane.
    I almost jumped outta my seat when I saw her in NM.
  • cclore ~ Team CW for BD
    I love the look she gives Demetri and Felix. It's like can't you boys do anything right? LOL

    And the swagger she has walking towards them. Dakota did an awesome job as Jane!
  • TeamKristen(L)RumpyPumpy
    She got merked when she couldn't hurt Bella. LOL.

    Still, she nearly made me pee my pants, she was scary. Worse then Freddy or Jason or even the boogeyman. LOL
  • Twilight Space Cadets <3 NM
    She was amazing as Jane..

    man.. seeing all these clips of the movie are killing me!! I have to go see it again!!!
