Twilight’s ‘Breaking Dawn’ Birthing Scene Gives People Seizures

If you want to enjoy a long weekend and are planning to call in sick on Monday, here’s a good excuse for you: “The new Twilight movie gave me seizures!”

This is the acclamation from one man in Roseville, California. Brandon Gephart says he was watching the film when “sudden began convulsing during a graphic birthing scene.” Of coure, the birth he’s referring to is that of Bella and Edward’s child.

Whether the man was being completely honest or whether he was trying to get out of seeing the cheesy film with his girlfriend, the scene does contain “flashes of red, black and white that could trigger an episode of photosensitive epilepsy,” the Gawker says.

So, if you’re not one for bright lights or weird half-vampire half -human babies coming out of a woman’s private parts, maybe you should go see The Muppets movie instead.

You Too Can Own the Breaking Dawn Wedding Dress!

Twilight fans can now be just like Bella Swan on their own special day.

When marrying Robert Pattinson’s character in Breaking Dawn: Part One, Kristin Stewart is wearing a gorgeous long-sleeved white gown designed by Carolina Herrera. A replica gown has just been made by bridal retailer Alfred Angelo for $799, CBC News says.

Considering some wedding gowns prices are in the 5 figure range, 800 bucks is a pretty sweet deal. For all you high-end shoppers, you should be happy to know Herrera will be selling the original dress at her boutiques in New York next year, but the cost is yet to be confirmed. I’d except it to cost as much as a brand new car.

As far as wedding gowns go, the Bella Swan one is actually pretty classic and sophisticated, just like kate Middleton’s infamous long-sleeved gown. No word yet on whether a replica of Edward’s tuxedo will be sold anywhere.

After hours of debating at our office, we have concluded its impossible to choose our favorite Cullen. So rather than deliberate over our favorite vampire from Twilight, we asked the stars about some lesser known blood suckers. At the Toronto premiere of Breaking Dawn Jordan plays “who would you rather” with Ashley Green, Jackson Rawthbone and Sarah Clarke.

George Clooney Wants to Kick Breaking Dawn’s Ass

The former “Sexiest Man Alive” actor is coming off as a bit jealous since the new Twilight movie comes out in theatres the same say his film, The Descendants.

George Clooney joked with E! and said “the big headlines come Monday morning will be “Descendants Kicks The Hell Out of Breaking Dawn”.

The Twilight flick is expected to make $125 million on opening weekend. The dramatic Clooney flick directed by Alexander Payne has a lot of OScar buzz to it but I don’t see it being a box-office smash. Clooney’s great and all but this is the cast of the Twilight franchise he’s up against. Nothing could ever stop every single young person in the world from going to see Robert Pattinson sex up Kristin Stewart this weekend,

Bruno Mars ‘Twilight’ Video Delayed

Bad news for Twilight and Bruno Mars fans – his video for “It Will Rain” has been delayed. The video was supposed to debut on MTV and MTV.com this Wednesday. Of course “It Will Rain” was the first single from the Breaking Dawn – Part 1 soundtrack.

“Hey guys, I’m still working on the ‘It Will Rain’ video,” Mars wrote. “The MTV premiere will happen in a couple weeks. Be patient for ya boy. Love y’all.”

Apparently the reason for the delay is simply the production is behind schedule. However, the good news is Christina Perri will be debuting the video for “A Thousand Years,” which is also on the Breaking Dawn soundtrack.

We will continue to wait patiently……

The Joy Formidable Don’t Care About ‘Twilight’

Although getting included on the Breaking Dawn soundtrack is huge, The Joy Formidable aren’t fazed. In fact they aren’t that familiar with Twilight, and they have no idea what they are in for.

“I can’t say I’ve ever read one. I haven’t seen the films either, but I have heard the soundtracks, and I was familiar with some of the songs, you know, Metric and the Black Keys,” frontwoman Ritzy Bryan told MTV News. “So I was more aware of the musical side of ‘Twilight’ than I was the books or the movies. Actually, I know very little [about the books]. I know they’re about vampires, and I know they’ve connected very much with an audience … so they’re obviously much enjoyed by a lot of people.”

That’s crazy!

Kristen Stewart Receives a Motorcycle for her 21st Birthday

We guess Kristen Stewart is more like her Twilight character, Bella Swan, than we thought!

Instead of ringing in her 21^st birthday with the traditional booze, her Breaking Dawn co-stars decided to wring in Stewart’s big 2-1 with none other than a motorcycle as a gift, reports MTV.

“Rob was so excited for Kristen, and they each took turns riding it. Kristen learned to ride a dirt bike in ‘New Moon‘ so they thought it would be appropriate,” a source said. “Rob was supervising as she sat on it to make sure she was OK. They looked like they were having a great time, and it will be something they can really enjoy!”

Stewart, along with beau Robert Pattinson and co-star Taylor Lautner, among others, celebrated her big day at Rockwell’s Bar & Grill in Squamish, British Columbia on her birthday this past Saturday night.

“Rob led the crowd singing for her, and you could tell she was so embarrassed but in a cute way!” a source told Us Weekly. “Everyone was in a good mood, but it was a bittersweet night [as filming is almost complete].”

As excited as you are about your new gift, Kristen, we advise you to be careful –a shirtless and “sorta beautiful” Jacob Black/Taylor Lautner can’t always be there to help you when you fall!

Wow – we should have become actors in the “Twilight” franchise. That was a huge career error on our part.

PerezHilton reports that Taylor Lautner, Kristen Stewart, and Robert Pattinson are guaranteed $25 Million for the last two “Twilight” films, “Breaking Dawn” Parts One and Two.

Perez also notes that their payday could be potentially even bigger. They have apparently been offered 7.5% of the theatrical gross, which could be $41 Million a piece.

Oscar award winner Bill Condon is slated to direct both parts of Breaking Dawn and you don’t have to worry, of course Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner will all be returning.

The latest instalment of The Twilight Saga, Eclipse, is set to hit theatres on June 30.

Judge Dismisses Case That ‘Twilight’ Author Stephenie Meyer Stole Idea

Sara Harowitz — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 03:16:01 +0000

Posted on andPOP:

Stephenie Meyer, author of the hugely popular book-turned-movie series “Twilight,” was recently being sued over allegations that she stole her beloved vampire ideas from another author. However, as TMZ reports, the judge completely dismissed the idea.

Competing vampire author Jordan Scott claimed that her book, “The Nocturne,” was ripped off by Meyer. The judge slammed Scott, saying that her accusation was “deceptive,” and completely illegitimate.

Scott alleged that the wedding, consummation and birth scenes between Edward and Bella in Meyer’s book “Breaking Dawn” were eerily similar to scenes from “The Nocturne.” But the judge shut down Scott, saying that she had “twice manipulated aspects of the subject works in order to create the appearance of similarity.”

The case has been officially dismissed.

Breaking Dawn, the fourth and final installment of the Twilight series, will shoot right after the third film, Eclipse, according to Perez Hilton. While the second and third films were previously slated to be filmed back-to-back, fans were concerned about no apparent plans for the fourth movie.

Ashley Greene, who plays Alice Cullen in the films, recently revealed in an interview that she would be preparing to shoot the last installment immediately after shooting wrapped on the third movie. “We’re going to start right after Eclipse,” she said.

Filming for Eclipse is planned to begin August 17 of this year, and is expected to wrap around October 31.

New Moon - the sequel to last November’s Twilight - is scheduled to hit theatres in November 2009. Eclipse is planned to follow in the summer of 2010, leaving fans to expect Breaking Dawn around the summer of 2011.

The Twilight movies are based on the wildly popular books of the same name by Stephenie Meyer. Breaking Dawn sold 1.3 million copies in the 24 hours following its August 2, 2008 release.

Melissa Rosenberg wrote the script for the first three films, with Meyer credited as co-screenwriter.
