Robert Pattinson’s Buried Life Episode Airs Tonight

The TV Squad gives a pretty good rundown of what the MTV show, The Buried Life, is all about:

“Fresh-faced, optimistic, and totally earnest, the four twentysomethings who created and star on MTV’s ‘The Buried Life’ have a lot of things going for them: Hunky, all-American good looks (although they’re actually Canadian). More than half a million “friends” on Facebook. And a successful show on MTV which relies entirely on their personalities, on-camera chemistry, and real-deal authenticity.

Now in its second season, the show’s premise is deceptively simple: The stars — Dave Lingwood, Ben Nemtin, Duncan Penn, and his brother, Jonnie Penn — ask each other (and thus, their viewers) ‘what do you want to do before you die’?

Each episode follows them on a cross-country quest to cross one of the items off their list that answers the question, from capturing a fugitive to getting married in Las Vegas to, in this week’s edition (Monday, October 25 at 10:30 pm/ET), stealing a lock of Robert Pattinson‘s hair.”

Upcoming Take 180 Twilight Spoof Features Shay Carl

Last week news broke about Rob and Kristen possibly shooting a Volvo commercial in Louisiana. In the end it turned out to be the folks of Take 180 doing their most recent Twilight spoof. The mystery was solved when YouTube sensation Shay Carl (the one that Kaleb Nation routinely mentions in his tweets) released the below video that more or less explained the filming that was originally assumed to be of Rob and Kristen

Take 180 has done Twilight spoofs before, some better than others. Our favorite is the New Moon spoof seen below. In particular it’s Laura’s (Pel’s) favorite spoof ever.

Novel Novice Interviews The Hillywood Show

Novel Novice interviewed The Hillywood Show cast members at the Portland Twilight convention. We can’t wait until their next parody, the Eclipse one, goes up!

Novel Novice also has some of the best wallpapers and desktop calendars going, so if you have never checked out their site, now is the time to do it!

Some More Eclipse DVD Details.

We are getting a lot of questions on the DVD’s Blu-Ray’s etc for Eclipse. The biggest concern people have seems to be whether they are going to have to buy from multiple vendors to get exclusive content. In other words, in the New Moon DVD release Target, Walmart, and Borders each had different outtakes, extras, featurettes, cast interviews etc.

We asked Summit a couple of months ago about this, and they told us that what is offered content-wise will be the same vendor to vendor on comparable products (ie: comparing single-disc to single-disc, two-disc to two-disc).  The only thing that may differ are the packaging items. So a given vendor might have a specially stylized box, another one might offer a poster or a tee shirt as a perk, but the actual content on the DVD should remain the same within a given country.

What might happen is when it comes to foreign distributors, they might include some extras like if a press conference or a premiere went on in that country, they may have a few clips of that media event, but the studio driven content is the same. So, you don’t have to buy three different discs from three different manufacturers just to get all the Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Stephenie Meyer, etc extras that you want.

Hope that helps. If there is a point that we are missing, put the question in the comments and we’ll see if we can get an answer.

How Renesmee Was Cast

The Mackenzie Foy fansite Nessie Mackenzie has a breakdown of the casting process for Renesmee complete with the call sheet as well as a video of another actress auditioning for the roll.  You can hear some of the early dialogue for Renesmee as well as the casting director in the background giving her the prompts.  Please remember that this was this actresses FIRST audition ever and she was not cast as Renesmee.  This is not Mackenzie.  So take that into consideration when commenting.  It should also be noted that lines used in the casting process aren’t generally from the final script.  They make an audition script based on what the actress will need to do in the final movie.  Leave a comment and let us know what you think about these early lines and how you think this could play out in the final script.

Kristen Stewart Chimes in on Breaking Dawn Script and Pregnancy Suit

MTVs Hollywood Crush caught up with Kristen while promoting Welcome to the Rileys.  She talks about enjoying the script and how it feels to come to the end of the saga.

In a related interview with Hollywood Life, Kristen talks about wearing the pregnancy belly for Breaking Dawn and the diet she is currently on to maintain her future vampire figure.

“I’ve worn it. It’s … crazy. I’ve done fittings,” she said. “It gets immense. It gets so massive at some point that it actually looks inhuman. Like it’s hurting her. There are striations of bruises.”
