My meeting with Peter Facinelli-he is HOT!
My friend and I went to Jantzen Beach Mall today in Portland, OR to meet Peter Facinelli. He was there for a photo shoot and autographs to help raise money for Doernbecher childrens hospital.
We got there at 11:30 this morning, and there were two huge lines. The first hour we waited, Peter took a break from the photos and strolled the long lines to say hi to everyone, and shaking hands. Mine was one!
Let me just say how more beautiful he is in person.
We waited in line for 3 hours, and it was finally our turn. My friend Melissa went first. Then me. When I got up on the podium, I swear I giggled like a school girl. he gave me the biggest smile, and said "Ah, let me give you a hug" . He gave me a big squeeze, and kissed my forehead, and said "thank you so much for coming". I replied with "are you kidding me? Thank you for doing this. You're such a sweetie". We then took our photo together (I squeezed) and then he thanked me again and we said good-bye.
My friend also took so photos on her camera.
It was such an awesome experience, and he is the nicest man, and absolutely 1000x more handsome in person!

Scary Jane & Edward From New Moon
OMFG, this is going to be such a good movie! Look at poor Edward in the backround-heartbreaking!
Rob has surfaced on 8/27/09-finally!
Finally today we have some photos to prove that yes! Rob is there and working.
David posted on twitter that they have filmed the "meadow" scene, and that there was Edward & Bella rolling around, and the wedding date being set!
Sounds like David is sticking pretty close to the book which is extremely comforting!

I see Robbies undies
I love this photo and that fact that Rob was having a ball while filming this scene. The fact that he flips Kellan off is classic, and it got into the movie!
Love the blue boxers Rob...and I must say with the deepest respect, nice ass!
Sorry, but I love the butt shots, his are the best:
Not a butt shot, but cute as hell!
Same favorites from the Eclipse book by Stephanie Meyer
Chapter 1:
Edward: Do you really have any idea how important you are to me? Any concept at all of how much I love you?
Bella: I know how much I love you.
Edward: You compare one small tree to the entire forest.
Chapter 24:
B: I love you more.
E: Yes, I know that too. But, when I left you Bella, I left you bleeding. Jacob was the one to stitch you back up again. That was bound to leave it's mark-on both of you.
I'm not sure those kinds of stitches dissolve on their own.
I can't blame either of you for something I made necessary.
I may gain forgiveness but that doesn't let me escape the consequences.

13 reasons why smart women love Rob
From the Examiner:
1.) The first reason why is obvious. Smart girls aren't dumb when it comes to embracing tall, good looks; they just want to be sure there is something more behind what they see. In Pattinson's case, there is.
2.) Smart girls love talent. If a man can make them forget their troubles for awhile, or even better, enlighten them or carry them to a new place through a story or a song (both of which Mr. Pattinson can do), then he has their attention, admiration, and in some cases, a growing devotion. More than one talent? Double points. Robert Pattinson has double points. He is an actor, but he is also a talented musician and singer/songwriter.
3.) Humility scores big. It doesn't take an above-average intelligence to feel all warm and fuzzy when someone who is clearly more talented or better looking than the average person does not seem to know it (or show it, if he does)--and above all, does not take it for granted that you think he is above average in anything. Bravado doesn't cut it with the typical smart girl. She gets bored with it quicker than it takes the guy who is full of it to even realize he needs to get over himself. Pattinson is also not particularly sporty and gets teased by his co-stars when he gets hurt easily doing stunts. Many smart girls (at least, those who are not also student athletes) can relate to that.
4.) Robert Pattinson reads. Newsflash! Well, it's true. Smart girls read, and smart guys do, too. Readers share a special bond that is stronger than a lot of other things guys could do to try to attract girls. If some guys only knew. A lot of guys--a lot--do not read much. (A lot of girls don't either, for that matter, but we're talking especially right now about those who do). In interviews, Pattinson has talked about books he's read and has observed that several of the films he's appeared in so far happen to come from books.
5.) He has a great sense of humor. Pattinson makes people laugh. Watch a YouTube interview of Robert Pattinson--almost any one of them. The guy has a sense of humor that just won't quit, and best of all, it's self-deprecating. He's the kind of guy smart girls want to take home to their parents because they have absolutely no doubt in their minds that they will like him. Charm and a sense of humor go hand-in-hand.
6.) He knows how to be a gentleman and when. Somehow, to Americans, it goes with the charming British accent thing, but, more importantly, it shows a good upbringing. Robert Pattinson appears to have good instincts for when to be silly and when to be respectful. The maturity to know the difference is unusual for someone his age, and smart girls, who also tend to be rather mature for their ages, appreciate that. The British accent thing? Well, let's just say that smart girls know that one British accent does not a gentleman make, but perhaps the nerdiest among them may also take a special pleasure in the fact that Robert speaks perfect Queen's English and not in a more folksy, Cockney dialect (Americans are not generally aware of the social class bias that can sometimes get tied up with this distinction in England).
7.) He listens, and he's articulate. Watch him in a YouTube interview again. Do you see him listening to the questions carefully? Do you see him thinking about an answer rather than always blurting out the first thing that comes to mind? Do you see him try to give a fresh answer to the same question he's been asked 1.2 million times already? Smart girls see these traits and appreciate the actor's efforts to communicate thoughtfully, sincerely, and well. In the listening department as well, it doesn't hurt that he knows music so well that he can recommend an eclectic list of good musicians and songwriters that smart girls might not have yet heard of and would like to know more about.
8.) He thinks. Wow--another newsflash (he walks; he talks--LOL!). This reason, though, is also evident in his interviews. Robert appears to want to give a thoughtful response to questions asked of him most of the time. His answers themselves sound like they are from a person who thinks about subjects beyond sports scores or fast food. It makes one want to read something that Robert may have written. It is said that he has kept journals and written screenplays. It shows. Catherine Hardwicke, Twilight director, says he has, or is, an "old soul." Smart girls get what that means.
9.) He's a kind and generous public person and friend. Anyone who allows fangirls to take pictures with him endlessly when he is out on his own time and not at a public function cannot be called anything but kind and generous. Pattinson's friendships--old and new--seem to indicate that he is a loyal and trusted friend. He is already using his newfound fame to help open up opportunities for his British friends' careers (musicians who co-wrote songs with him that ended up on the Twilight soundtrack, for example).
10.) He's not perfect. Pattinson's got a bit of an edge that keeps him from being totally perfect. He smokes (which might be one reason not to bring him home). He embraces what some say is a typical young Brit habit of going out to pubs almost nightly, and he doesn't seem to care who sees him there. He's himself, which smart girls love. He's not trying to be someone he's not to fit into someone else's image of who he should be. It's called being genuine, flaws and all. There's something a little dangerous, a little unpredictable about him, too. Catherine Hardwicke saw it and says it was another reason why she cast him as Edward Cullen.
11.) He's not afraid to show his vulnerability. Pattinson is said to be quite shy. Certainly, his soft spokenness and nervous ticks in interviews (combing his fingers through his hair, among them) seems to validate this. How 'manly' is it, then, when someone that shy is also that comfortable with himself that he can admit he has areas in his life that are in conflict with one another, like everyone else? Mr. Pattinson's sensitivity will serve him well as an artist. His good-natured goofiness will serve him well in making friends. The combination of the two will likely appeal to people in power in the entertainment industry.
12.) He's creative, has ideas and ambition. Pattinson will continue to surprise audiences for at least the next few years with the film roles he decides to take on outside of the Twilight saga. Right now, much of his career is dependent on those choices, and he seems like the kind of actor who will be thoughtful in making those choices, if he chooses to stay with acting at all. Those who have worked with him say he is a hard worker.
13.) The whole Hollywood thing does not overly impress him. You get the feeling Robert Pattinson could leave all of this newfound fame and glitz behind him tonight if he found a different means of expression or a line of work that interested him more. Not being tied to chasing fame and fortune is an admirable quality that smart girls--and people of all kinds--find unusual and admirable.
True or not to how he is in real life, this is Robert Pattinson's public persona as it stands right now. Of course, it could change in an instant, and in this Internet age, the change would ripple around the world in a matter of minutes, and the tide could turn against him. When people talk about the pressure of fame, it might have something to do with maintaining a likable persona, even when you're tired of it--unless the persona is not a persona at all--it's the way you really are.
Smart girls know that, too, which is why they temper their love for this actor/musician with a curiosity about their own worlds and a zest for their own lives. They know it's fun to get a little short of breath, or a little weak in the knees when a new picture of Robert Pattinson shows up in front of their eyes yet again, but their feet still remain firmly planted on the ground.
Smart girls (and some of their blushing moms, as well as interested women of all ages) are keeping their eyes on their favorite actor, Robert Pattinson these days--not only for the enjoyment from what they see, but also to watch with interest for what the talented actor/musician chooses to do next.
What's that? Not feeling particularly smart, but still love Robert Pattinson? Join the club! What's that? You're a smart girl, you say, and you don't love Robert Pattinson? Well, you're entitled to your educated opinion, of course, but I know a few other smart girls who might ask you for 13 reasons why.

My take on the New Moon Script
***Spoiler Alert***
I was lucky enough to get my hands on the 2nd draft of the NM script and read it on Saturday, and truth be told, read it on Sunday too, and will read it again tonight!
It is fantastic! Although I know there have been many re-writes since 12/08 (which there needed to be) it still gave me goosebumps and made me cry.
It sticks about 90% to the book with some added scenes & characters which are very fitting for the storyline (not like the "little bottles" idiot in Twilight)
This movie will have some scary shit in it as well.
There are kisses, and some damn fine ones too.
The way Melissa wrote Edwards leaving and Bella's fall into a deep & dark depression was phenomenal.
Some of the things that were not in the script was the plane trip to Italy, and the conversation between Alice & Bella, where Alice decides to change Bella herself. I was disappointed in that-but it does get in there, just in a different way.
The plane trip home from Italy was also not in the script.
The proposal was NOT in the script...however; Chris has said that it did make it into the movie, but it's different from the book.
I'm not sure what that means, unless just how Edward asks, or when.
The VOTE is there!!
And some very scary stuff in Italy, where Edward really gets the shit kicked out of him. That is going to be extremely difficult to watch.
All in all, I was so pleased with the script and can honestly say this movie will kick the shit out of Twilight!
Quote from New Moon Movie, Edward to Bella:
"Every second I'm with you is about restraint, and you're too fragile"
I am anxious and nervous for Eclipse...I don't know David Slades work, other than his horror movies...
He has to keep the essence of the story, in that it's a love story with some scary shit...
Please keep the love story strong.
We need:
The official proposal
The bed scene & leg hitch
The tent scene
And Bella needs to tell Charlie she & Edward are getting married.

Little Bit of Rob
Bad video, but here's a little bit of Rob talking over the screams! congratulations to Rob & the entire cast for the 11 wins last night!
Saturday, August 8, 2009
Stop the madness
As I noted before, I won't post crap abut Rob's personal life, unless it's something he has publicly talked about.
There's all kinds of shit flying around right now, photos from pappz, videos, and they're worse than other ones we've seen before.
I will just say this...I love (worship, desire) Rob and whatever he does in his private life is his business and I support him matter what.

Just because I love Rob....
I refuse to post shit about his personal relationships...I just have too much respect and love.
Here's some thing just for fun...
New Moon, Chapter 10: The Meadow:
His name burst through all the walls I'd built to contain it...
Edward, Edward, Edward.
I was going to die. It shouldn't matter if I thought of him now.
Edward, I love you.
Some favorite lines from the book by Stephanie Meyer:
After all the thousand times I told you I love you, how could you let one word break your faith in me?
I could see it in your eyes that you believed I didn't want you anymore. The most absurd, ridiculous concept-as if there were any way that I could exist without needing you.
Bella, really, what were you thinking?
Another favorite line:
Why can you believe the lie and not the truth?

Eclipse is getting closer!
Today many of the cast has landed in Vancouver to begin rehearsals for Eclipse. Ashley, Nikki, Elizabeth, Peter, Kellen, to name a few.
We're still waiting on Mr. Pattinson himself to arrive, and of course Kristen.
Rob was spotted today at LAX, and we are anxiously awaiting photos!

Unbound Captives
I just finished reading the script Unbound Captives and really enjoyed it.
Although I'm not really a fan of westerns/Indians stories, this one held my interest all the way through.
Admittedly, because I know Rob will be in the movie….
It's not a unique story by any means. It's been done before. Reminds me a little of The Searchers.
What I really loved is Rachel Weisz's character, May.
May is a strong woman who loves and fights for her children. I loved the layers added to her and felt very drawn to her.
I can not wait to see what Rob does with this role. It's a supporting role, and he doesn't come into the story (as Rob) until 1/2 way through, but this is completely different than anything he's done before, and once again, I think he's made such a wise choice for a role.
I for one, can not wait to see him create Phineas…and let me honest, can't wait to see him in a breechcloth, bare-chested, tan, pierced and howling Comanche!
I'm sure Madeline Stowe has done plenty of rewrites on the script, and I hope we see a little bit more of 17 yr old Phineas, aka Rob.
I think this movie is going to be amazing and can not wait to see Rob tackle this role.
I love bad ass Rob
Thank you to fakerparis for making this:
The make up in Remember Me is fantastic...
