Here are the categories they were nominated in -

* Best Blockbuster
* Best Music
* Best Action Hero – Jacob Black
* Best Action Hero – Edward Cullen
* Best Ending
* Best Visual Special Effects
* Best Screenplay (Adapted)
* Best Actress – Kristen Stewart for New Moon
* Quote of the Year – “I just have one condition. If you want me to do it, then … marry me Bella.” ROBERT PATTINSON – THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON
* Actress of the Year (Multiple Roles) – Kristen Stewart for New Moon & Adventureland
* Actor of the Year (Multiple Roles) – Michael Sheen for New Moon & The Damned United

Jeff Bayer then released an official statement as to why he all of a sudden removed the nominations -

I run The Scorecard Review … Unfortunately, I had to remove ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’ choices. Too many twihards were giving everything Twilight a 10, and every other film a 1, trying to manipulate the results.

I love movies, movie fans and I have no problem with people loving Twilight, but trying to kill other movies is not the point of these awards. It was a difficult choice, as I love the attention the TSR Movie Awards have already received, but here is an example of what was happening …

In the BEST MUSIC category, Twilight had a 9.3 score. The next highest was Crazy Heart with a 3.8. That was the next highest! In other words, there were hundreds of twihards who decided the best way for Twilight to win was to give the other nominees a 1.

I apologize to all the Twilight fans who took time, and now don’t have the opportunity to vote for the film they love.

Here’s a side note … Edward was beating Jacob in BEST ACTION HERO/VILLAIN/SUPERHUMAN. It’s pretty funny actually. Edward had the most first place and last place votes. But officially, Team Edward was in the lead.

Jeff Bayer

Wow. Epic fail on the part of Jeff Bayer and the Scorecard Review! Sorry if our fans are dedicated and wanted to see what they love win awards.  I’m assuming that if this was Avatar winning at the same ratio you would remove them from your awards list, right? Doubt it.

MovieMistakes.com outlines mistakes pointed out in various movies by moviegoers and their users. New Moon as of today has 33 mistakes in it. Here is a brief outline of what they have listed -

• Bella’s bite mark scar is not in the position it should be, compared to where James actually bit her in Twilight.
• When Jacob first shows off his tattoo, it is up at the top of his shoulder. Then when he is in the forest at the end with Bella and Edward, his tattoo is about 2 inches further down his arm.
• During the breakup scene, you see a blue marker between Edwards feet in his wideshots.
• After Bella awakes from the first nightmare, we see her Romeo and Juliet book on the pillow beside her. When Charlie brings in her presents the book is gone, but then reappears on the pillow between shots. (many of our readers at NMM.org have mentioned this one!)
• When Bella is at the cafeteria table with Mike, and he is asking her to a movie, her hair keeps moving from behind her ear to hanging in front, and back again.
• When Bella and Edward enter the chamber with the Volturi, they change which sides they are holding hands on. This also happens when they leave, except it goes from arm on waist to hand holding
• When Sam comes into the house and kisses his fiance, you can see the ripples in the edges of the plastic film used to put the tattoo on his arm.
• In the very last scene, right before the ultimatum, if you look into the tail lights on Edward’s car you can see various members of the crew reflected.

You can check out the rest of the list here!

According to Tech Blorge, The Twilight Saga: New Moonwas the most talked about movie on Facebook user status updates.

Facebook has really gained some ground in the world of social networking this year – especially with relation to Twilight. Right now, the Official Twilight Facebook fan page boasts a meager (heh) four and a half million members

4.5 Million members?  Yowza!  I know I’m guilty of posting link after countless Twilight related links on my Facebook page lol.
