Let Edward or Jacob Take Over Your Facebook Profile!

It looks like the Team Edward or Team Jacob debate has hit Facebook!  AfterTheBite.com has detailed instructions on how you can show your love for either Edward or Jacob on Facebook by doing what they are calling the “Edward profile hack” or the “Jacob profile hack”.  You download the images they provide and upload them into a Facebook album.  You have to tag the photos in the order they are given to you for it to work, so be aware that it might take a little time.  It also only works if you’ve changed over your home page to the new layout, so if you prefer the old style this isn’t for you.  But given that the Edward/Jacob battle still rages on we think there were soon be many facebook pages hacked by the Vampire or Werewolf!

New Photos of Volturi in Breaking Dawn Costumes

PopSugar is running a series of photos taken of the Volturi members during a night shoot in Louisiana for Breaking Dawn Part 1.  They are obviously outside as everyone, cast and crew, are bundled up in coats and hats.  It looks as if they are waiting for the shoot to begin.  You can see Dakota Fanning (Jane) sitting in her chair with Chris Hyerdahl (Marcus) to her right and Cameron Bright (Alec) and Jamie Campbell Bower (Caius) to her left.  Michael Sheen shows up a few photos later in full costume for Aro.  We’re not going to post the photos here as we know some of you are trying to stay “spoiler free.”  If you’d like to see the photos, visit PopSugar.

Twilight Social Networking Year in Review

As is typical near the end of the year, lists of all kinds are being made for the top spots in all sorts of media outlets.  The Twilight Examiner did a great job of compiling some of this information.   The Twilight Saga: Eclipse trailer was one of “the most-searched movie trailers on Google this year” according to the Hollywood Reporter.  Likewise, Eclipse was the second most talked about movie on Facebook after Toy Story 3 and the seventh most talked about movie on Twitter after such films as Inception, Deathly Hallows Part 1, and The Last Airbender.  We’ve also found that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are the most Googled pair on the internet beating out Brad and Angelina.  And Lastly, The Eclipse trailer was in the top 10 of the most watched videos on YouTube.  Considering how full our inbox is with Google alerts for all things Twilight, we can’t say that any of these stats really surprise us!  How about you – let us know if you’re surprised in the comments.

Harry Gregson-Williams Not Involved With Breaking Dawn

The IMDB, as we have mentioned before, can be wildly inaccurate. it’s like Wikipedia in that anyone can edit the information. Notable errors in the past have been listing Emily Browning for the role of Bella after Kristen Stewart was cast, and listing Brenna Lee Roth as playing Emily in Eclipse. Another recent error has cropped up and the Soundtrack Examiner ran down the story regarding composer Harry Gregson-Williams being involved with Breaking Dawn.

I read rumblings on the Internet about you being in talks to score the fourth TWILIGHT movie, BREAKING DAWN. Is there any truth to that?

No, not at all. The only bit of truth to that rumor might be in a fifth grade Manhattan Beach Middle School. [Laughs] My daughter is very keen on me to do this. She’s crazy about the TWILIGHT series. But no, there is absolutely no truth to that rumor at all. I haven’t heard anything about it at all. I know nothing about. When it comes to fourths, SHREK is as far as I go!
