Tuesday Twilight Saga Update

I've been so busy with New Moon party stuff. It's kind of consuming. I just have so many ideas running through my head...and only 18 days left!!! Can you believe it??! 18 days! Two weeks from this Thursday. So, the countdown is really on now (although it's been on at this blog for quite some time). I think the first time I downloaded a countdown widget there was more than 200 days...now only 18! I'm also marking off my party checklist. All of the invitations are made and ready to mail. I have my New Moon outfit put together and finalized. Wanna see?

What do you think?

I've purchased all of the party favors and game prizes. The decorations are all accounted for (Edward and Jacob are still in my office...waiting patiently). The hotel rooms are booked. I'm still working on my New Moon banner and the centerpieces I'm making. I didn't get much done over the weekend with all of the Halloween festivities. I'll have to show you guys some pictures from all THREE parties I helped throw. I've been way busy.

Have you all seen the New Moon commercials on TV? LOVE IT!

Something else I love is this new Anya Marina video for Satellite Heart (from the New Moon soundtrack). Enjoy!

Hope everyone is having a terrific Tuesday!

Tuesday Twilight Saga Update

This is a very exciting TTSU because we are officially ONLY ONE MONTH AWAY from the premiere of New Moon! WOOT!

I'm thinking up some good ideas for some bloggy fun in the next few weeks. I do my best work in the shower and while standing in the shower the other day I started to put my plan together...so stay tuned. I'll be making another post soon with details.

There is a NEW New Moon clip on iTunes (available for free download today!)

Here it is...


How's that for some wolf pack action?! I LOVE it! ( you probably already knew I was going to say that...I'm becoming so predictable)

The soundtrack is out...what do you guys think? I know that I'll love it more when I can connect the songs to the scenes in the movie. Right now my favorite songs are...

1. Death Cab For Cutie - "Meet Me On The Equinox"
2. Anya Marina - "Satellite Heart"
3. The very last song on the CD, but I can't remember the artist, I believe the song is titled "New Moon" (The Meadow), no lyrics, just piano...it's beautiful.

I'm such a dork (like I needed to tell you guys that)...but as I listen to these songs I try to imagine what scene they go with...anybody else do that? I love Satellite Heart. I think it has the perfect mood for the movie. Something about it makes me think that it will be somewhere in the scenes where Bella is in her deep dark depression after Edward leaves. I think Meet Me On The Equinox might be in one of the Italy scenes or possibly when Alice comes to Bella and they get on the plane to go save Edward...oooo, or maybe it's when Bella is going cliff-diving...maybe it's like Bella wanting to meet Edward and the only way she can see him is when she does reckless dangerous things? Hmmm. What do you guys think?

Eclipse News - Peter Facinelli said on his Twitter account that Eclipse is in its LAST week of filming! (@peterfacinelli - Back in Vancouver. Coming down the home stretch. 1 more week to go on Eclipse.
10:46 AM Oct 18th from Tweetie )Can you believe that? The awesome thing is that we won't have to wait a WHOLE YEAR from now to see Eclipse! It'll be out in June 2010. What I don't like is that there isn't much talk of Breaking Dawn...and I WANT BREAKING DAWN! Hopefully after Eclipse goes into post-production we'll start hearing more about the last movie.

Hope you guys are having a great week so far! *loves*

Tuesday Twilight Saga Update

Yesterday at Hot Topic they had Bella’s green dress from the movie and it is sooooo pretty!


I almost bought it on a whim, but changed my mind. I think it’s something I would wear again, but I’m not sure. Plus, I had a reality check for a moment right there in the middle of HT, when I reminded myself that I AM NOT 16…I AM 32…and I need to keep things in perspective. So, I slowly backed away from the dress and the punk rocker sales guy who was trying to convince me how great I would look in the dress, and I settled for some bracelets instead.

Whew, close call. You see how dangerous it is for me to go in there alone. In a mere 20 minutes I could be talked into a whole Bella wardrobe and some Edward stuff to boot. I think I need supervision on my next trip. I also bought this...

and this...

...and a Jacob bookmark. The Bella in me is coming out and forcing me to have a soft spot for Jacob...until I read Eclipse and then I get ticked off at him all over again...but isn't that very Bella-ish too? I always thought of myself as an Alice...hmmmmm.

Don't forget about the soundtrack release this Friday (moved up a week from it's original release date)!!! Hot Topic is hosting a Listening Party and the punk rocker sales guy informed me that if you purchase your CD from HT, you'll also get a free gift...and it's only 10 bucks!

I'll admit...

• I let Isaiah go to school in shorts and rain boots today. It was quite the fashion statement.
• I coerced him into taking his electronic Moon to show-and-tell today instead of Megatron (it's the letter 'M')
• I'm thinking of bribing him into dressing up in one of the cute costumes out of the Pottery Barn catalog instead of Darth Vader...he dresses up as Darth Vader on a regular basis. I'm wanting something cute and different and creative. He wants Darth Vader.
• I've had TWO VENTI Americanos today...that's like 8 shots of espresso. I have a little nervous energy to say the least.
• I sat outside Starbucks in 40 something degree weather, no coat, shivering, drinking my hot Venti Americano...and LOVING every minute of it.
• I've listened to this a *few* times...
  
  

Death Cab For Cutie - New Music - More Music Videos

I've already pre-purchased the New Moon Soundtrack on iTunes. Have you?

Hope everyone has a FABULOUS Friday!

Tuesday Twilight Saga Update

So, we're just a little over 2 months away from the opening night of The Twilight Saga: New Moon!! I.CAN.NOT.WAIT. Seriously. I'm so excited. As a form of therapy for myself, an outlet per say, I will be doing a Twilight Saga update each Tuesday on any of the news I've heard or read and links when I can give them. Basically you'll get the 411 on all things Twilight. I'll do my best to reserve any Twilight tangents for Tuesdays (but I can't promise that they won't creep into Friday Confessions).


I'm sure everyone has seen the new trailer from the VMAs! It is so good. If you haven't go to my post from Sunday. It's full of Twilight yumminess. There are new scenes with the Volturi (I'm LOVING Dakota Fanning as Jane)! Click HERE


Fandango has tickets for sale from select theaters! If you haven't already, go check Fandango and see if your local theater is offering "early sale" tickets! You don't want to miss the midnight showing, do you?! Click HERE


There is already some New Moon merchandise for sale...


Available TODAY is the New Moon book with the movie cover! Click HERE

Also at Amazon.com you can pre-order the New Moon Movie Companion that will be available on October 6th. I'm sure there will be lots of great scene shots and insider information from Chris Weitz!!

Hot Topic has New Moon shirts!!! I purchased all of my Twilight shirts from them last year and they are AWESOME! So, I'll be making a few purchases there soon! My b-day is coming up and you know what this Twi-girl will be asking for! You can also pre-order the New Moon Soundtrack, which will be available for purchase on October 20th! The first single from the New Moon soundtrack is Death Cab for Cutie's "Meet Me on the Equinox". Click HERE


Something that humors me, but I am intrigued nonetheless, Burger King is partnering with The Twilight Saga: New Moon and will be featuring our beloved Bella, Edward, and Jacob on Burger King crowns beginning in November! LOL. Now that's a WHOPPER! (I'm retarded) You can read more about it HERE



Hope everyone is having a great Tuesday!♥
