Entertainment Press Vancouver Bound

Several Entertainment sites have now released the information that they are heading to Vancouver to visit the New Moon set. They are asking for fan input for questions.

First up Rotten Tomatoes:

“I’m delighted to share the news that Rotten Tomatoes is heading north this week… to the Vancouver set of The Twilight Saga: New Moon, to observe filming and interview cast members! While we won’t be at liberty to divulge too much of our visit this week, chime in and tell us what you want to know most from the set of New Moon and we’ll do our best to oblige.”

Next Up Hit Fix:

“you can follow my journey to some extent over the next few days on Twitter.  Or, why not participate?  This writer has purposely avoided reading any of the novels to come at the series from a strictly cinematic perspective (a decision that has worked well for the “Harry Potter” franchise).  However, I’d love to know what you, the fans, would like to find out about the movie. What are you most curious about?  What would you ask Chris Weitz if you could?  Dakota Fanning? Or, a member of the Wolfpack?”

New Moon Contest Winner Announced

Kristen Stewart: Biking Riding, Not With Taylor

Vancity Allie visited another location the other night. From what bystanders could tell, Bella (Kristen Stewart) jumps on the back of a motorcycle of a biker guy.  Onlookers are guessing that it’s a tweak of the scene in the book (call it artistic license) where Bella approaches a dangerous crowd while out with Jessica.

“And let me just say this — Kristen Stewart is one HECK of a cool chica. She did ALL her stunts tonight, at least the ones that I saw. Props for braving it out in the cold Vancouver night on a motorcycle all evening. Major Kudos, Kristen!”

Be warned that if you click to read the full story on the Vancity Allie blog that Allie was close enough to hear dialoge and to see people standing in interesting locations. Don’t worry, Allie was standing behind established barricades, and none of her coverage was illegally obtained, but, if you are trying to stay spoiler free on non-book stuff, you probably want to miss this particular story.

Vancity Allie Attends Theatre Shoot

The interior scenes for the movie theater segments were shot a couple of weeks ago at the Ridge Theater and Bowling Alley complex. Last night, they did the exterior shots at a movie theater that had a more traditional look. Kristen Stewart, Mike Welch, Anna Kendrick, and Taylor Lautner were all in attendance.

“They[Anna and Kristen] both looked beautiful. Kristen as “Bella” was wearing a dark coat, with a blue hoodie and a casual shirt underneath, with blue jeans and Nike sneakers. A likely Bella costume! Anna as “Jessica” was wearing a very cute houndstooth pattern brown jacket with pockets, with a pink, coral and white shirts underneath. I like the necklace they chose for her. Blue jeans as well.”

Ashley Greene Looks Forward to Italy

Access Hollywood caught up with Ashley Greene at an event that supported her favorite charity, Donate My Dress. Ashley arrived with a unique accessory. Perhaps she’s taking a page out of Paris Hilton’s book, because the accessory was her dog.

Justin Guarini Wants In On Soundtrack

Justin Guarini of American Idol fame has a song that he has specifically written for New Moon and hopes to catch the attention of Summit and Stephenie and have it on there. TY to multiple people.

“Here’s a song that Tammy Hyler, Shaye Smith, and I wrote specifically for “New Moon”. I’ve set it to some stills, and slapped my vocals on it. If you like it, make sure to spread the word and ask Stephenie Meyer to put it on the soundtrack – JG”

Fans Flock to Filming Location

According to the Vancouver Sun a local radio station revealed the exact address and times of a New Moon movie shoot. It ended up causing a problem for the security since some of the fans who showed up weren’t content to stand behind established barriers.

They were especially concerned because the particular set is of a high-grade styrofoam and could easily be damaged by tresspassers.

“For security crews, it’s a cat-and-mouse game keeping zealous fans from storming ‘New Moon’ film sets. To the chagrin of protectors, someone blurted the movie-shoot address on The Beat radio station last week. When the Now visited the scene Wednesday evening, a small group of people – mostly teen girls and women – gawked at the two-storey “house” and chatted with two non-uniformed security personnel.

One woman drove from Burnaby to get a look.

“I don’t like going to the film sets when they’re shooting,” she said, “because there are too many crazies hiding in the trees and everywhere.””

Cameron Bright: Doesn’t Miss Hollywood

Canada.com interviewed Cameron Bright who plays Alec in the New Moon movie.  Cameron is a native of the Vancouver area where New Moon is being shot.

“If I didn’t live here, I think I would probably be that stereotypical actor. In Hollywood, everyone wants to be an actor and just flaunt it,” he said. “Here, they just don’t care.”
