Chris Weitz Wishes He Could Cut The Frolicking Vampire Scene From ‘New Moon’

BuzzSugar has an interview with New Moon director Chris Weitz.  With the New Moon DVD out in store March 21st, Chris discusses his favorite scene in New Moon, Rob & Kristen’s relationship and what he wished ended up on the cutting room floor.

There are lots of different editions of the New Moon DVD. Which bonus features are you particularly excited about? I’m excited that my voice will finally be heard! For me, the fun thing was doing the commentary with Peter Lambert, my editor, because it kind of re-created the atmosphere in the cutting room. Peter’s a really funny guy, and we were able to delve into not only the behind-the-scenes moments, but to explain why certain things were shot or cut together in certain ways. So that, for me, was the most fun.When you go back and watch it again, are there things you’d like to change if you could? I would like to never have shot Rob and Kristen running through the forest and Kristen’s just turned into a vampire. Because everybody always laughs and it makes me feel terrible. [Laughs] I would have shot it a different way so it wouldn’t get that response. But otherwise, I’m very happy with things.

You must get lots of questions abut Rob and Kristen. Do you laugh it off or are you totally sick of hearing about it? I’m somewhat clueless — when you’re the director, you’re kind of like the school principal. Nobody really tells you anything. You really have no idea what’s going on. I’m the last person who would know about this kinda stuff. I’m sure you could get more from reading the paper.

What was your favorite scene to shoot in New Moon? I’m very fond of the memories that a lot of the scenes invoke in me. My favorite scene is probably somewhere between the very last scene, and the cliffhanger that it’s left on, and the scenes in Italy. Just the experience shooting those scenes was so magnificent. We were in this beautiful hillside town in Tuscany, and going home to fresh-made pasta every night, and surrounded by thousands of fans of the series while we were shooting it. I know I’ll never experience anything like that ever again.

What’s your take on the rumors that Breaking Dawn will likely be two movies, possibly in 3D?
3D seems to be the new thing that everything has to be. I think the good thing about 3D is that it can lend tremendous depth to a picture, and really make it extraordinarily lush, visually. And also that it gets people to go out to the theater. Film directors want people to see things in the theater, on the big screen, at least the first time. So that’s a good thing. As for the book being broken up into two films, I think it’s a good idea. There’s so much material in the final book that I think it’s warranted.

How would you direct Breaking Dawn? Very carefully, because I think that you want to deliver the fans a faithful version of the book that they love. Yes, there’s a lot of extraordinary goings-on. So it’ll have to be done carefully.

How do you think the movie franchise has been affected by using different directors? I think it’s good for it, because I think there’s a tremendous amount of coherence thanks to a very strong cast, who care about getting their characters right. And I think that the fans’ interested will be un-dimmed, and I think it’s interesting to see the different visual approaches, different stylistic versions, different choices that different filmmakers take.

Are you excited to see Breaking Dawn, or will you inevitably be thinking about how you would have done it differently? I’m really excited to see it. I’m very excited to see it. I’m sure he’s done a really great job. I think that he’s, amongst other things, a much better action director than I am. So I’m really keen to see the action sequences. I think that there are a lot of things that I would have been very daunted by the prospect of shooting, which he will have taken in stride. I’m excited to see it whenever I can.

Oh my Chris Weitz.  How I love thee, but yeah the frolicking vampire scene?   Everyone laughed in the theaters (including me) at that scene.  I imagined Bella hunting a deer or something.   I still love you!

I’m still mad that Rob, Kristen or Taylor are not doing the commentary with you.  I don’t care how funny Peter Lambert is!

6 5ctBauble 03.04.10 at 1:54 am

COngrats on first!

and yes….you should have thought about THAT when you were editing CW!!!!

Shame on you for exposing us to such a cringe-worthy scene!

My eyes are still burning!

what does that mean

8 christina 03.04.10 at 1:57 am

i want 2 make out with rob

9 kristy_tada 03.04.10 at 1:57 am

WEll…I actually thought the scene was kinda cute. I thought back to how the scene was in the book and Bella was actually wearing a dress that Alice put her in the first time she went out into the woods to hunt. Anyways..I just thought I would get that comment out there. I think I am the only person that feels it was a cute scene, but I loved it.

10 christina 03.04.10 at 1:57 am

i want 2 makeout with rob

11 christina 03.04.10 at 1:58 am

My poor boyfriend knows nothing of my obsession. -sigh-

13 CC 03.04.10 at 1:58 am

Aw I'm glad we got a preview of her as a vamp, DON'T FEEL BAD CHRIS!!!!! :)

14 smexi galore 03.04.10 at 1:59 am

THANK YOU :D i realized i havent commented on posts for a while…

they should have a version of a movie called “new moon (with the scenes that shouldve been cut out)

15 christina 03.04.10 at 1:59 am

about what

16 christina 03.04.10 at 1:59 am

who bella

17 TeamBouffant<3 03.04.10 at 2:00 am

That whole scene was just a WTF moment for me. Too bad he didn't realize it earlier

18 christina 03.04.10 at 2:00 am

u have a point

19 Cjean loves Bel Ami Rob 03.04.10 at 2:01 am

Hehe…oh the vampire frolicking scene.

I have decided that it was the music that ruined the moment. The scene in itself is neat, dream-like AND we get a glimpse of Bella as a vampire.

But the music made it cheesy and laughable. Poor CW, the idea was good it just somehow was ruined. Not to mention, the music was all lullaby like when we are in the middle of a suspenseful confrontation with the Volturi.

20 smexi galore 03.04.10 at 2:02 am

i mean, the vampire vibe is hardly there… reminded me of a really cheesy 40's movie flashBACK..

21 RobWard'sJawButTayCob'sMeat 03.04.10 at 2:03 am

Of course I do. The jaw gives you smartness. Le-duh.

22 5ctBauble 03.04.10 at 2:04 am

Im super bummed i dont get to hear the voices of the Holy Trinity :(

and yes Chris….EVERY theater was filled with laughter at that scene….EVERY ONE!

23 IndiesR 03.04.10 at 2:05 am

LMAO! Too little, too late Chris! WTH were u thinking?! Meh, it could have been worst. haahahaha

24 Just_Me88 03.04.10 at 2:07 am

I agree. I thought the scene wasn't that bad. but the music and the slow motion where a little to cheesy for the moment.

25 ♥Im_with_the_vampires♥ (Jenny) 03.04.10 at 2:14 am

i loved the scene.. i just wish they would of dressed bella in something from this century… i would of loved to see her in a tight knee lenght dress…

26 ♥Im_with_the_vampires♥ (Jenny) 03.04.10 at 2:15 am

LOL.. you do have a point with Twilight…

27 rwheel 03.04.10 at 2:15 am

I didn't hate the scene. I certainly didn't laugh. I loved seeing Bella as a vampire!

28 Small Town Cullen Girl 03.04.10 at 2:17 am

I liked the frolicking and I love CW. He did an awesome job!

29 IndiesR 03.04.10 at 2:24 am

heheheehehe….I do! HA!

30 ♥Im_with_the_vampires♥ (Jenny) 03.04.10 at 2:25 am

33 christina 03.04.10 at 2:28 am

WHO IS CHRIS?

34 5ctBauble 03.04.10 at 2:28 am

about the title of the post.

35 christina 03.04.10 at 2:29 am

are u on the vamp side or the wolf side? ask other people as well

36 5ctBauble 03.04.10 at 2:30 am

total WTF moment!!!

he should have filmed it as a fluffy scene…

Just B and E staring into each other eyes…we pan from E and his golden eyes to B with HER golden eyes….the sun comes out….both sparkle a bit….they are still but the whole world is spinning around them………

37 ancha85 03.04.10 at 2:30 am

Yeah, in the book she describes the dress as this satin tight-fitting dress that she had to rip up the sides to run in. The dress in New Moon looks like a Jane Eyre dress that Bella would've fantasized about when she pictures herself in Edward's time and how getting married young wouldn't seem “strange” then.

38 ancha85 03.04.10 at 2:32 am

Have you even seen the movie?
Everyone knows that Chris Weitz directed New Moon!

39 christina 03.04.10 at 2:33 am

40 christina 03.04.10 at 2:34 am

41 christina 03.04.10 at 2:35 am

obvisouly thats why its sooooooooooooo good

42 christina 03.04.10 at 2:37 am

who here is glad that dakota fanning was in the movie I WAS

43 Small Town Cullen Girl 03.04.10 at 2:39 am

I wish he would come back for BD

Sent from my iPod

44 ancha85 03.04.10 at 2:39 am

Jacob's my favorite character and he would have been the IDEAL guy for me, when I was a teenager!But I totally agree that Bella had to choose Edward. If she had not, someone would have had a broken heart (Jake had one, but only for a little while, Thank God!).Her choice was the best for her, Edward and Jacob in the end!

45 christina 03.04.10 at 2:40 am

I say that new moon is THE BEST key word THE BEST movie in the world

46 christina 03.04.10 at 2:41 am

nah it was good without ed

47 lexidevon 03.04.10 at 2:43 am

Yeah, nice of someone to notice that the “frolicking” scene was largely comedic effect. Loved New Moon…that scene…frightening in the worst of ways.

48 Charlene 03.04.10 at 2:49 am

I actualy Liked the scene it was cute. I remember being in the theater hearing everybody Laughing but I didn't know why? I guess it's just me.

49 Team Swirl RWTP 03.04.10 at 2:50 am

what can i say i love this man with his logical input.

50 jgrey 03.04.10 at 2:57 am

Chris might have done commentary with Rob, Taylor and Kristen too. Sometimes there are more than one set of commentary on the DVD extras. I hope so, Rob was hilarious on the Twilight commentary.

51 AshleyAnne5 03.04.10 at 2:58 am

yes the frolicking scene…. I burst out laughing every time… it was just ridiculous

52 aj_cullen 03.04.10 at 3:00 am

Firstly, LOL at the comment re, I don't care HOW funny [the editor] is (by the original author – hilarious!

I didn't really mind the 'frolicking' scene… I am just saw in love with the movie, that I can see no wrong. I'll be so disappointed to see the 'deleted scenes' – as I always wish they would keep them in the movie!!!

53 Team Rob's American Accent <3 03.04.10 at 3:01 am

What?!?! No Rob, Kristen…or even Taylor doing the commentary?! CRAP! I was sooo looking forward to that…it's one of my favorite things about the Twilight DVD.. Rob is freakin hilarious in it “Listen guys…let's just be simple!..” LOL

EPIC FAIL CW!!

54 Flowers_and_Cookies (Patzy) 03.04.10 at 3:03 am

No don't get rid of that! That's the part when I go pee!!!
(lol)

55 .TF09. 03.04.10 at 3:05 am

I LOVED the frolicking scene. But Bella should have been wearing the silky, satiny, SEXY dress that Alice put her in. Hahaha. I don't think anyone would have laughed at that. *passes drool bucket*

56 Eclipse 03.04.10 at 3:06 am

Oh well, I liked the scene though it was cute.

57 TeamBouffant<3 03.04.10 at 3:20 am

Yes! That would have been so much better! It was a really tense moment and then it's totally ruined because we all start laughing.

58 rachnf 03.04.10 at 3:21 am

I thought the scene was cute but I understand how people laugh and it always makes me feel bad

59 Brown-eyed-pea 03.04.10 at 3:22 am

Thats a really good idea. Then people wouldn't laugh. they'd be mesmorized by the beautifulness!

60 twilightx3 03.04.10 at 3:28 am

LMAO
You are cracking me up with your (lol)s too

61 Brown-eyed-pea 03.04.10 at 3:29 am

Can you explain the jaw porn? i see eveyone talking about it. is it just how he has the perfect square jaw?

62 twilightx3 03.04.10 at 3:30 am

I liked the scene.. but i always end up laughing! LOL
I love new moon but there are sooo many cheesy lines/scenes that wow LOL
Like when Jacob said “don't get me upset.. things will get very ugly”
they could just have leave the don't get me upset part it actually sounded pretty hot but *sigh* they didn't…

63 RobWard'sJawButTayCob'sMeat 03.04.10 at 3:30 am

His jaw is like porn to us. Nuff said.

64 5ctBauble 03.04.10 at 3:31 am

69 Brown-eyed-pea 03.04.10 at 3:41 am

oh ok. i gotcha

70 More_than_My_Own_Life 03.04.10 at 3:55 am

I really do love Chris W. You could really tell that he cared about the film & the fans. But that scene had the potential to be GREAT; (Bella's going to be such a beautiful vampire) they just made all the wrong choices for it. The music, their clothes, & the slow motion ruined it! Vampires do not frolic. I see that scene totally different in my head . . .

71 More_than_My_Own_Life 03.04.10 at 3:58 am

I laugh at that part too. I can't tell if they meant to make it funny or if it was supposed to be serious.

72 hj2010 03.04.10 at 4:01 am

did anyone notice how he avoided the robert/kristen question….now THATS a good director…he's not looking for his extra 15 mins of fame like catherine was…i think he did a fantastic job!…

73 cullen1212 03.04.10 at 4:06 am

I LOVED NEW MOON ! :D its was perfect ! everything so so perfect ! :D i actually loved the ending and the vampire scene into the future actually to be honest .. i think imight be one of the few.. i mean if there are afew who feel the same as i do ! :D LOLZ but i gotta say that this fanpire is very happy ! very happy indeed ! :D

TEAM EDWARD AND CHRIS W !

74 5ctBauble 03.04.10 at 4:09 am

The movie seemed a bit choppy and i wasnt taken through the rollercoaster fo emotions that i felt when i read the book.

The entire movie was just sad and sombre.

But after watching it repeatedly i have realized why that was….it was the score. In twilight there were two prominant scores….one to convey the danger and one to convey the light lovey E/B moments….

NM didnt seem to have this strong distinction in the score.

The ending was ok but i definitly thought the frolicking was uncalled for.

But it wont stop me from wearing my DVD out when i finally get it!

75 Iminmyhappyplacewhataboutu 03.04.10 at 4:22 am

Yea I agree with CW on the frolicking scene but well it did make me laugh. I think he did good better than CH. He stuck to the story. I read an article where a source said the return to forks scene was the last to be deleted and it was done last minute by SCUMMIT. The source went on and said it was deleted because it ran to long aka pacing was off/slow. The source also said Victoria had alot more scenes more than the snack car scene but told CW to cut her scene down to a small role then after the cast with BDH viewed in August they told CW to cut her scenes again to a cameo. the article was done by one of those gossip mag so who knows. I wouldnt pull it past SCUMMIT.

76 RedPawn3592 03.04.10 at 4:31 am

After watching that scene in the theater, I could only imagine Kristen's reaction when she heard about what scene they were filming that day.

“So let me get this straight; I am supposed to prance around in a white dress, with glitter all over my face? Right? What, is Rob going to be following me, with his stupid, weird mountain-goat run?”

LMFAO :)

77 IloveyouEdward 03.04.10 at 4:48 am

OMG
I just saw the RM tv spot for the first time eeeeeep
* can't breathe * hyperventalimg
Oh god he is so hot ! I felt like licking the screen.

78 teambillyblack 03.04.10 at 4:50 am

Chris, don't, don't do it, don't apologize for the “frolicking scene” I loved it. I don't understand what is so bad about it, really.
MY interpretation of the scene is Alice showing Aro what HE wanted to see or happen in the future. So Chris, don't feel “embarressed or ashamed” for that scene.
I believe “Twilight” had more and far worse scenes (i.e. the stupid biology field trip scene, SPider Monkey scene, Rosalie talking and she's not even in the shot scene etc. etc, etc) need I say more!

79 Majnona (Mar'09) TEAMGREENE 03.04.10 at 5:34 am

80 MCNutters [Team Nessie!] 03.04.10 at 10:35 am

maybe he had to cos of stupid MR!

81 Kez_MLIT 03.04.10 at 10:49 am

I love the scene but I did laugh lik everyone else did in the cinema!
but im glad he put it in, a glimpse of what breaking dawn could be is better than nothing!
BUT NO 3D pleeease. it just wouldnt.work.
not everything has to be in 3D after avatar!

82 MCNutters [Team Nessie!] 03.04.10 at 10:49 am

new moon is my fave book. i had such high hopes for it. so when i left the theater i was in shock and SORELY disappointed. it was too rushed! no sooner you felt sad until they thrust you into a suspenseful moment and back again! you never did have enough time to feel or grasp the emotions. it was choppy.

/le sobs/

83 MCNutters [Team Nessie!] 03.04.10 at 10:52 am

summit. and MR wrote the script. enough said.

84 MCNutters [Team Nessie!] 03.04.10 at 10:55 am

things will get very ugly” LMAO that part makes me laugh.

new moon was kind of a disappointment for me. /le sigh/ *read my comment to 5ctbauble on top.

85 MCNutters [Team Nessie!] 03.04.10 at 10:58 am

yes there were more victoria scenes. its in the movie companion book. but man if thats true then summit is a d-bag! who cares if they cast bdh. rachelle IS victoria and deserved a bigger role (and dont get me started on how she deserved to be in eclipse). despite it being a cameo she did SUPERBLY well. (and thats an understatement)

86 neev 03.04.10 at 11:59 am

I certainly DID NOT laugh at that scene!

It is beautiful!

I don't understand… I hate it when people laugh at it…

87 MCNutters [Team Nessie!] 03.04.10 at 12:04 pm

i liked the bio field trip.

88 MCNutters [Team Nessie!] 03.04.10 at 12:04 pm

LMAO mountain goat.

89 twilouca 03.04.10 at 1:02 pm

Chris for Breaking Dawm!!!!! Please!

90 Jaypat 03.04.10 at 1:14 pm

You know, thank God for spellcheck….I wrote froglicking by accident in the title!

91 HHIMC<DS_gotScrewedByScummit:/ 03.04.10 at 1:43 pm

Ya, he shouldve done it differently, as others suggested.
And the cliffhanger? One of my least fave things about NM.
Wish he couldve stuck to the script for the ending, instead of putting in something so half-a$$ed like that. It just wasnt Edward's “way” to do it like that….Ugh…Lame.

92 Twilight lover =) 03.04.10 at 1:59 pm

I did not understand why everyone around me in the theater was laughing at the scene where Bella was a vampire I love that scene. To me its like out of a dream… I so happy I get to own the DVD in a couple of weeks because I don't have to watch it with people that obviously cant detect beauty in a film. Love ya New Moon Yea!!!

93 5ctBauble 03.04.10 at 2:03 pm

LMAO…

did you happen to have another type of licking on your mind at that time…???? ;)

94 Gypsy0531 03.04.10 at 2:22 pm

one of my favorite scenes.i loved that scene too. Bella as a vampire with Edward. so i also didn't get what was so funny about that scene.

95 HEARTBREAKCHICK 03.04.10 at 2:48 pm

what no commentary with kristen, taylor, and rob????????

96 HEARTBREAKCHICK 03.04.10 at 2:50 pm

i agree it felt rushed/ but dragged on in a way

97 HEARTBREAKCHICK 03.04.10 at 3:01 pm

Things i would change in new moon would be

*add the lines from the book when edward tells bella if it was mike with her he would be holding her hand at the hospital

*the line from the brakeup scean when edward tells bella “I dont want you to come” some punk that was sitting next to me kept saying “thats what she said lol” and hes right it does sound gross

* bella and jack time i couldnt tell she was falling for him

* please get rid of the elevator scean that was pointless
(the cut out explaining how the bikes magicly appeared on bellas truck but the elevator was needed??? reall??

* yea the running vampires what is bella wearing??? and she looks so plain she suppose to be hott???

*JAKE's personality in the book he's so funny in a way you love/hate him and in the movie they make him way to mature and no “sure, sure'” anywhere in that movie

98 I'm Addicted. Get Over It. 03.04.10 at 3:27 pm

Personally, I think the worst part about the frolicking scene was the CLOTHES. It wouldn't have been as laughable if they weren't wearing clothes from a different time period.

Honestly, there are a TON of ways to show that Bella was changed to a vampire, so I don't know why they chose to do it that way. However, the more I see that scene, the less it bothers me. I really enjoyed NM. I'm 100% Team Edward, but there was a time in that movie that I was really liking Jacob, and I never really liked him in the book. So that impressed me.

99 neev 03.04.10 at 3:42 pm

He should not be worried about it… Or feel awful.
Relax CW, it was a beautiful scene!

100 teambillyblack 03.04.10 at 4:28 pm

Clicked “Like” I absolutely agree with you Twilight Lover, I see nothing wrong with that scene.

101 teambillyblack 03.04.10 at 4:34 pm

Hey McNutters, this exactly proves my point, people like different scenes, I loved the “frolicking” scene but can't stand the biology trip, and you liked the bio trip. To me the bio trip was just (in my opinion) as a second thought, should have stuck with the “blood typing scene” so much better and it flowed, just my opinion.

102 Iminmyhappyplacewhataboutu 03.04.10 at 4:35 pm

Her scene is one of my favorites in the movie. Most professional film critics agree some even said it was their favorite part. I am going miss her in Eclipse it will not be the same.:( BDH acted her little heart out and try to mimic her but I doubt she will success because she is a different face and actress. So sad:( I hate how they well mostly BDH keeps bring up how its perfectly decribed in the book I swear I really dont think she has never ever read the books and she keep being up this sh*t about the continuity of Victoria and creative version of the director well Scummit f***ed that up in hiring her. Trust me they could have work it out in “8 days” well more like “5 days”. IDOITS. They already had the permits for the location and they never asked to switch dates or locations. Some source i think may have either worked in the crew production or for vc gov. told a gossip mag. I dont know if its true and again I would not put it pass scummit. I know its too late. But it still pisses me off that they did that to her. From what I read in yes another gossip mag a source said RL told Summit in June as accordance to her contract that she took a small role in BV and that Rachelle was only told by Summit on Monday before the annoucement that she was being replaced. She was given no choice in the matter.Scummit could have said you have 24 hrs to decide but no they just told her bye bye. EFFING RUDE. Like I said this came from a gossip mag who know and again I would not put it pass Summit in doing. My belief if she really didnt tell them til right before ComCon why wasnt she given the choices why just replace her they could have made her pay the fees and stuff. why fire her? Because it is pretty clearly she and the whole cast were caught off guard. So clearly she didnt get a choice. She could have gotten out of BV. Its a small role. I am pretty so the producers and director would have let her. I smell a fish rotting away at scummit. I am going to see the movie but only for the ORIGINAL CAST.I support them not the replacement professional. OMFG I did it again so sorry I ranted damn it.Sorry.

i didn't laugh at the frolicking scene, but the rest of the audience sure did…ugh…
it would be cool to see that scene with diff clothes or whatever…but i can think of a bunch of other scenes I wish were different, or extended, or INCLUDED.
still, i loved NM and can't wait for the DVD!
March is a very expensive month…*winks* luv CW

105 vampwannabe 03.04.10 at 4:53 pm

your english is perfect. Welcome :)
*hugs*

106 Diana 03.04.10 at 4:56 pm

I loved the frolicking scene…and I never even think of laughing…it was very beautiful …I did imagine it different in my mind but hey, it was his vision

107 kabow 03.04.10 at 5:29 pm

I think that all Twilight fans should make some kind of statement that WE DO NOT CARE whether Rob and Kristen are together :D Because this thing is the biggest reason why commentary wasn't made with them :{ They even can't give an interview together any more. Oh I miss those… :(
Chris and Taylor just wouldn't work :D

108 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.04.10 at 5:58 pm

I didn't care for the FROLICKING scene. It wasn't how I pictured Belle to look from what Stephenie had in the book. And it's nothing against Chris as a director, but I agree that he should have cut that. I don't laugh, but my eyes do roll…sorry fans. Bella's a hot, new number as a vampire, and they made her up to look 14 yrs old. No, no, no, no, no….

Now I do agree that I wish Rob, Kristen and Taylor would have been on the commentary…ditto on the “no matter how funny Peter is”. I'll still listen to it though, cause I love that stuff!!! :O)

109 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.04.10 at 6:18 pm

I agree with…

*the “come” part, we all did the same thing…you can't help it!
*the frolicking…she looks 14, and she should look flippin 'hot'!!

adding…

*the way things happened in Italy…Edward didn't step in the sun, they walked underground, and Alice did better acting in the book. (sorry, Ash, I still love ya)
*whatever it is that Jacob says to Bella right before his moves to kiss her…we were all like, “what the hell did he say???” still have no idea…
*Edward's hair, make-up and the suit (he looked better in Twilight…seriously, in NM he looked closer to 30)

For the most part, I loved NM – but Twilight is still my favorite (cause it started the whole obsession for me, lol)

110 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.04.10 at 6:19 pm

Kristen should have said, NO, give me something HOT!!! :O)
I read BD and this ain't right…

111 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.04.10 at 6:25 pm

LMFAO!!!!! How funny…*my eyes are tearing from laughing so hard* OMG, that was great!!! (you should add it to your AVI name)

112 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.04.10 at 6:28 pm

My husband does, but only because in trade, I let him have his with Megan Fox.

Mine is sooooo much better!!!! :O)

113 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.04.10 at 6:30 pm

Why are you talking to yourself?

114 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.04.10 at 6:34 pm

Rob – get off the internet and quit messing around!!!! lol

I know you're not seriously asking…

115 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.04.10 at 6:40 pm

Dakota was a perfect Jane

116 HEARTBREAKCHICK 03.04.10 at 7:17 pm

he did look almost 30

117 hollydolly31 03.04.10 at 7:19 pm

Oh i didnt like the frolicking scene…it looked like they'd gone back in time, not forward!! The Cullens are so modern, and yet Bella is dressed in some weird Victorian long dress thing and Edward…dont even get me started haha…both in white? He had some weird beige wastcoat thing on that made him look 70!!
The running noo…
Bellas 20ft hair extensions NOOO..her hair cant grow that much in a year from NM to BD? Or 3 days transformation for that matter when shes not meant to change LOL…

I didnt meant to laugh, but i did :(
I would have had them sitting opposite each other, Bella as a vampire but looking fierce, and with red newborn eyes and only showed it for a split second, like a taste of whats to come.

I agree with what someone said about the score aswel, it was MILES better for Twilight, i missed the Twilight music in New Moon :(

118 HEARTBREAKCHICK 03.04.10 at 7:23 pm

lol

119 HEARTBREAKCHICK 03.04.10 at 7:38 pm

is that why they cant do interviews together really?? thats lame… what they do in there personal lives is just that personal.

120 hey14444444444 03.04.10 at 8:35 pm

i dint not laugh at the scene but the whole theater was laughing! i thought there were laughing cause Alice maybe lied and thought abt it instead of actually seeing it and you noe how shes kind of well ALICE lol so she made it a lil more dramatic but… since its not i wouldve like to see a little hunting or something lol

121 sandra17 03.04.10 at 9:35 pm

Thanks!! :D

122 hmregan13 03.04.10 at 10:23 pm

OMG- I could not stand the stupid field trip scene! I never understood why they took so much of the book out and added in the most random stuff and stupid lines- spider monkey, etc. I felt like so much of the character development and relationship development was missing- hell half the story was gone! At least New Moon stuck to the book!

123 hmregan13 03.04.10 at 10:25 pm

Do you remember what the script ending was? Just curious about what they changed. Can't wait for some deleted scenes!

124 hmregan13 03.04.10 at 10:36 pm

I didn't care for the scene initially, but when I thought about it as a little shout-out to Breaking Dawn, I tolerated it a little more. I'm ready for some deleted scenes!!! Hurry up DVD!

125 bella vita 03.04.10 at 10:47 pm

Honestly I think you're 100% absolutely right about the dress. I think that's what made it seem kind of silly. I laughed and I never even knew why nor did I want to laugh. It just came out and I was shocked by it. I think what made it sort of cheesy and caused everyone to laugh was the dress Bella was wearing and the way she had a ribbon in her hair. She looked like someone had plucked her straight out of an old school Disney movie like Snow White, Alice in Wonderland, or Cinderella. I think if she had a more sexy dress on like she's described wearing in Breaking Dawn then it wouldn't have made people laugh. I think there was just something about the combination of that outfit with the scene being in slow motion that made it seem cheesy to some people.

Still I feel awful for reacting that way especially now knowing that it made CW feel terrible. He's so sweet and he really did do his best so I can't stand him feeling bad about it. Makes me feel like a complete a-hole.

126 ♥is-it-june-yet?.♥ 03.04.10 at 11:14 pm

no one laughed when i saw it…

127 teamtaycob3 03.04.10 at 11:38 pm

hahaha I laughed when i saw that seen! LMAO and so did the whole theater around me! I thought it was stupid/ funny. but i didnt really see the point of it..

128 immortalbeloved01 03.04.10 at 11:53 pm

Theres nothing wrong iwth a good frolick! I just wished they wore something more realistic. Whats wrong with frolicking in normal clothes?

129 leahreallyitis 03.05.10 at 1:04 am

it was okay I guess whatever but I was too busy wiping my eyes from bawling so much that I did'nt feel like laughing LOL:)

130 .TF09. 03.05.10 at 1:08 am

When I first saw the scene, I didn't laugh. I was like, “OHMYGOD. That is SO romantic. Just like a fairytale.” Also, the music during that part just killed everyone. lol. Hopefully there isn't anything like that in Eclipse…

131 EAD_TeamTylersButt 03.05.10 at 1:53 am

That scene was supposed to be from a dream sequence, however, Chris decided at last minute to include it as a vision from Alice. I think if he actually shot a vision, it would have been more true to the book. More of a primal scene. It's over quickly, at least.

132 Jaypat 03.05.10 at 3:33 am

Vampires froglicking!!

LOL!
That would have got everyone's attention!

133 More_than_My_Own_Life 03.05.10 at 4:23 am

Jacob says “Stay with me forever” in Quileute. :)

134 Jennifer *Team Nov. 20th!!!* 03.05.10 at 4:39 am

I totally agree! I loved that part…I was expecting it and didn't find it funny at all. I knew there would be something representing Bella, post-transformation, and I thought them running together (which we all know is in BD) and Bella being able to keep up with Edward, was an awesome thing to see! I will be happy to have my own copy of the movie and watch it without people snickering at it.

Can I just say as a little side note, that there are younger people, I know, who can appreciate the movies and not be immature about them; but I am hoping to see Eclipse in the 21-plus theater at Mall of America. Don't think I can handle another midnight showing with a bunch of screamers! I am a big girl- I scream on the inside! :) Please, don't get me wrong, I LOVE all the positive energy and excitement that comes with the movies and the series but when you cant shut up during a movie and you are distracting others, I'm ready to turn around and whoop somebody!

135 Jennifer *Team Nov. 20th!!!* 03.05.10 at 4:42 am

oooh…totally just seen that in my head…LOVE THAT IDEA! :) I actually didn't think the post-vamp Bella scene was bad, could have been changed maybe, but I didn't laugh…although, I do get why people did…

136 HHIMC<DS_gotScrewedByScummit:/ 03.05.10 at 8:07 am

The script's (MR's) ending was closer to the book–but of course not as good. BUT it was better than the cliffhanger, imo.
Sry, i dont have access to youtube right now, or id post the link.
U can read the NM script on yt, it is in a few parts (about 7?) if u would like to check it out.
I couldnt believe that the script was better than the movie, cuz im not a fan of MR, but the NM script was SO much better than the Eclipse one!!
Also, NM script was better cuz of the actual sweetness and kisses written in! CW said he was team jacob and u could tell that, given the changes from the script to the screen.
Well, he's not coming back for BD. A few ppl (lol) liked NM better than TL, so he was good for them at least. One thing CW cant do is pick appropriate songs. Wish he couldve left that to someone else. Ugh.
Well, at least he got Robward's apparitions right :)

137 HHIMC<DS_gotScrewedByScummit:/ 03.05.10 at 8:15 am

Ya, “stay with me forever—and let that Cullen guy in Italy die cuz he left your @ss in the woods. Oh, and i have a crush on you, didnt i remind u of that like 10 times already?”
:S

Ya, that line is sweet, and was really the only kiss that was shot properly in NM, but DAMN, Alice shouldve been ready to rip his head off when he was sticking it in the car window when he was asking Bella to stay with him.
Everyone knows neither of them would be that calm being SO close to each other…they stink AND it would burn Jacob's nose…among other things.
Some aggravating scenes in that movie, for sure!

138 HHIMC<DS_gotScrewedByScummit:/ 03.05.10 at 8:21 am

Need to see the dreams that were shot for NM (u just reminded me of them)!
Kristen did an awesome job in the screaming from her nightmares, but where WERE they? We needed to see them, but of course they were cut.
Would like to see those deleted scenes (2 more weeks!)

139 TeamPattzCHEST_HAIR 03.05.10 at 10:48 am

I remember just a very few low chuckles at that scene in the cinema, and then suddenly my friend beside my started to crack up. I got mad and told her to shut up…

140 TeamPattzCHEST_HAIR 03.05.10 at 11:05 am

LOL I agree, kinda freaky

141 5ctBauble 03.05.10 at 11:42 am

First time i saw the movie i cringed at the scene, second time i saw it i laughed LOL

142 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.05.10 at 3:34 pm

You are the best!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!! xoxoxoxoxo infinity

143 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.05.10 at 3:36 pm

No doubt…cause we've all heard what happens when you lick certain frogs!?!?! :O)

144 Rob's Modesty Patch 03.05.10 at 3:39 pm

No doubt…cause we all know what happens when you lick certain frogs!?!?!

145 Riss<3Twilight 03.05.10 at 5:00 pm

You have to remember though, that the vision she had at the time wasn't what was actually going to happen. Alice's visions are subjective, someone can change their mind at any time and the vision will change as well. At the time, Alice had decided on changing Bella herself, so the vision she saw was based off of that decision.

As we all know, Bella's change didn't happen the way they had imagined it to. When she was actually turned into a vampire she wore the dress you're thinking of. However, the vision in the movie had her in a different dress because at the time her changing was decided to happen differently.

Does that make sense how I explained it? lol

146 Riss<3Twilight 03.05.10 at 5:01 pm

Completely agree. The scene itself wasn't terrible.. the music destroyed it and made it cheesetastic! I also wouldn't have made it slow-mo either.

147 ancha85 03.05.10 at 5:15 pm

True, true… Good point!

148 uinen 03.05.10 at 9:51 pm

at least he admitted that this scena was a major disaster. Bella should be super sexy, not a twin sister to alice in wonderland. Never mind, the rest was great

149 uinen 03.06.10 at 10:34 pm

when i watched it in the cinema the whole theater cracked up at that scene

150 uinen 03.06.10 at 10:36 pm

exactly, she should look super sexy, some smoky eyes make up and nice outfit. this was something that my grandma wear to bed

151 Parker 03.07.10 at 10:55 pm

People were laughing at that scene because of the clothes RP and KS were wearing. They were very ugly clothes, in my opinion. Also, I didn't like that scene because the director of BD might feel obligated to use it, and change that scene in BD around to match that clip. Also, when Bella turns into a vampire, I really want her to look like KS did in the Bazaar shoot. That shoot was WAY hot!

152 twilightgirl73 03.08.10 at 2:42 pm

I love that scene also!! It is one of my favs!! I got very upset when everyone laughed at it!! I think it is very beautiful. I'm glad it is in the movie. Someone please pass this on to Chris!!

153 SpaceHeated_Cullen 03.11.10 at 10:02 pm

I agree. I chuckled abit my self but take it back 100% if it would make CW feel better.

154 SpaceHeated_Cullen 03.11.10 at 10:06 pm

Yeah. he could have had them run fast for at least a second so we could see the supernatural speed. then shown us the eyes.

155 SpaceHeated_Cullen 03.11.10 at 10:10 pm

very very smart. Yes it makes alot of sence and hope others get it easier.

156 tarika 03.18.10 at 2:10 pm

Everyone commenting here is so stupid you guys did not guess why the scene of Bella running as a Vampire with Edward is funny because its a total wrong scene to show.

“Will Bella run in slow motion when she becomes a Vampire”.

They should have shown her jumping from a tree with Edward or something.

Well now you guys know why Chris Weitz wants to delete that scene.

157 apriltoalson 03.24.10 at 2:03 pm

The Bazaar photo shoot is EXACTLY what they should make KS look like in BD… but with normal clothes… or the ones Alice provides in her closet =)… can't wait to see BD!!! I hope & pray they make it 2 movies… 1 movie CANNOT do the book justice & so many fans will be furious… I hope Stephanie Meyer holds her ground

158 alexis 03.24.10 at 9:06 pm

the vampire frolicking scene was a little weird. maybe it would have been better if it werent in slo-mo.

159 Asa 03.30.10 at 1:42 pm

i think all of the clothing in New Moon is horribly wrong. Alices clothes in Volterra for example – jeesus – would suit a 50-year old!!

160 sarmo 05.13.10 at 10:51 am

If he would care about fans, he would make film about Edward and Bella but he practically ignored them.

161 sarmo 05.13.10 at 10:53 am

Aro is mindreader so Alice can't lie to him and show what she wants.

162 Dee 05.17.10 at 12:38 pm

I couldn't understand why everyone in the theater (including the 2 people I went with) laughed at the running scene, it was driving me a little nuts actually. My best friend and I didn't laugh and totally understood the meaning behind it, when I did ask someone what made it funny to them, they said it was because here they are with the Volturi and tensions were so high and the contrast between the sweet happy run was too far in the opposite directional emotionally. Although this semi-made sense, I still LOVE the scene and love that it is still in, although I really really wish Kristen and Rob were in on the commentary OR that there were multiple commentaries available.
