Twilight: New Moon Video Review

Kenneth Turan reviews ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’.

Miley Cyrus doesn’t like ‘Twilight’

Don’t bother asking Miley Cyrus if she’s on Team Edward or Team Jacob.

She says she doesn’t care for Twilight and has no interest in seeing New Moon.

“I’ve never seen it and nor will I ever,” Cyrus, 16, said recently during an interview with Cleveland radio station Q92.

What can’t she stand about the hit film series?

“I don’t believe in it,” she says. “I don’t like vampires. … I don’t like the wolf that pops out of the screen when I’m watching my TV at night. I don’t like it. I don’t want anything to do with it. I don’t like the shirts. I don’t like any of it.”

Taylor Lautner’s Turn To Swoon: Nov 20th

Women swooned for Robert Pattinson as vampire Edward Cullen in last year’s hit movie romance “Twilight,” but in its upcoming sequel Taylor Lautner, who almost didn’t make it into the film, is the newest hunk for fan’s to feast on.

“The Twilight Saga: New Moon” rises in theaters on November 20 as one of the most-anticipated movies early in Hollywood’s holiday season. Predecessor “Twilight” made $384 million at worldwide box offices in 2008, and its young principal actors, Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, shot to overnight stardom.

But in “New Moon,” the second romance about the netherworld adventures of teenager Bella Swan (Stewart) and the love of her life Cullen, it is Lautner who grabs the spotlight.

Jimmy Fallon Spoofs a Sulky Robert Pattinson

Originally posted Friday October 30, 2009 03:05 PM EDT

Attention Robert Pattinson fanatics: The world’s most famous tortured bloodsucker can’t stand Halloween. Or at least that’s the humorous way Late Show host Jimmy Fallon portrays a moody version of the Twilight star in the latest installment in his series Robert Is Bothered.

“Halloween bothers me,” sulks Fallon-as-Pattinson. “Costumes are stupid. Are you a werewolf? No you’re not, you’re a person. You can’t fool me. Jackass! No candy!”

“Pumpkins are dumb fat squashes,” Fallon jokes in a fake British accent. “Candy corns are stupid. Are you a candy or are you corn?”

The skit follows previous Robert Is Bothered spoofs on Snickers ads and Shark Week.

PEOPLE

Twilight and Twitter together

Unofficial “Twilight” Twitter accounts are now out of fashion, as the Saga now has its own official home on Twitter at @Twilight, and its follow list is the most official listing for movie-verified cast accounts that you’re likely to find. The series’ hunks Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner may still be absent from the micro-blogging site – as is Kristen Stewart – but the 20 accounts it does follow span the Cullen family, “New Moon,” “Eclipse” and Stephenie Meyer’s universe.

Here’s a rundown of who they are and where you can find them:

•Rachelle Lefevre (“Victoria”) — @RachelleLefevre
•Alex Meraz (“Paul”) — @TheAlexMeraz

(Check out the rest of the official Twitter accounts after the jump!)

‘New Moon’ Soundtrack Clips

It’s not a leak, but the site British Amazon.com has given fans an unexpected preview of the hotly anticipated “New Moon” soundtrack (which hits stores on October 20) by posting a 30-second snippet of each song on the album.

Which means that, if you were wondering what Thom Yorke’s “Hearing Damage” or the Killers’ “A White Demon Love Song” sounds like, you’re in luck! (BTW, the answers are “An outtake from The Eraser” and “Lou Reed,” respectively.)

Based on these clips, Lykke Li’s “Possibility” evokes a hazy fever dream, Muse’s “New Moon” remix of “I Belong to You” (the original version of which appears on their just-released album The Resistance) is a stately minuet, Bon Iver and St. Vincent’s “Rosyln” is hushed and churchly, and OK Go’s “Shooting the Moon” — with its weird sound effects — reminds us a whole lot of a Flaming Lips track.

The Friday unveiling of snippets from the “New Moon” soundtrack is a fitting way to cap off what’s already been a pretty huge week for members of Twilight Nation. On Wednesday, after months of hype, the video for the first single off the album — Death Cab for Cutie’s “Meet Me on the Equinox” — premiered on MTV, and fans of the series responded with gusto (though they would’ve preferred more shirtless Robert Pattinson, to be honest). And MTV News will have lots more about the soundtrack in a series of articles that begin publishing on Monday!

The Amazon preview only appears on the United Kingdom version of the site; at press time, the U.S. site did not contain any snippets of songs from the soundtrack.

NEW VAMPIRES:

‘Jane (Dakota Fanning)
She’s a ruthless little one, but in her defense, she had a rough go of it in the days before she was turned into a vampire. Humans thought she and her brother, Alec, were actually witches and decided to burn them alive. The Volturi, who were biding their time before transforming Jane and her bro, were compelled to act earlier than planned. So while Jane may look young, she’s actually been around for a while and maintains a powerful place in the Volturi ranks. Her special ability is to inflict incapacitating pain with her thoughts — a skill she developed after being burned at the stake.

Caius (Jamie Campbell Bower)
You don’t want to mess with this member of the Volturi coven. Turned around 1300 B.C., Caius is mercilessly cruel. One of the three leaders, he’s gunning to exterminate Edward, Bella and Alice Cullen (Ashley Greene), but Volturi founder Aro decides that isn’t the best course of action.

Alec (Cameron Bright)
Brother to Jane, Alec has risen to become one of the Volturi Guard. As with his sister, it’s unknown when he was transformed, nor exactly how old he truly is. What is known is that both siblings are invaluable to the Volturi: Since joining the coven, the group rarely has to engage in actual fighting — the siblings’ skills allow for the outright slaughter of their enemies.

Marcus (Christopher Heyerdahl)
The first pic of Marcus is creepy, creepy, creepy — the thin, red lips, the hands stretching out toward the camera. Since the death of his wife, Marcus has become detached from the rest of the Volturi leadership. Turned at about 1300 B.C., he’s developed almost zombie-like characteristics and is completely apathetic. Yet he maintains the special ability to perceive the strength of a relationship between two people. In this way, he is well aware of the intensity of Edward and Ella’s connection.

Aro (Michael Sheen)
The founder of the coven and its de facto leader, Aro possesses the ability to read a person’s thoughts simply by touching them. Unfortunately for him, this supernatural skill doesn’t work on Bella.
