Side note:
Tomorrow I'll actually post
about my Thanksgiving.

TaylorTot... Am I slowly falling for you!?

It is widely known in the world TwiBubble, that Taylor Lautner was Summits go-to-PR-man/face of Twilight. [Since he is young and eager to please. *cough* thatswhatshesaid *cough*]


And even when NEWS BROKE that you, TaylorTot, were unhappy with just being a piece of hott under-age meat oogled at for your New Moon abs....

...you are still considered the one of the 'Holy Trinity' that is game for anything:


Skip to the last 2mins for AWESOMENESS:

See!? He really is down for anything:

So TaylorTot,
 

After watching you on Conan, I sent out a Tweet about your jawline...
But it was the fact that you could actually DO IT (catch grapes in your mouth that is) was what I found attractive...

Then I saw the Jimmy video from a LTT post...
In which you are confused at the beginning and get so into it at the end...

 Well I got so into watching these snip-its, I ended up tracking down each full interview online...

And I'm beginning to worry that I truly will become a Mrs. Robinson in the future...

You see I have a rule, in my dating realm:
I am 23, therefore, the youngest I can go is 20!

And I only broke this once when I was 20 and he was 16...

...you see!?

I am already a reformed cradle-robber!

And I just can't have you out there rockin' a sweet suit!

or steamy and sexeh in the rain!

So from now on, if ever I feel a swoon coming on...
I shall force myself to look at the following pictures:

Then convince myself that you are still 8 and not 2.5 months from 18!

...

Damn it.

I scrolled back up.

...

Forgive me Father for I have sinned...

Not a New Moon Review [yet!]

Hahaha.

I got the above graphic from a post Twitarted put up.

But it is a warning that this post is entirely about Twilight: New Moon.

Still here? Nice.

At the beginning of November with only 19ish days to go until New Moon, I made my self a promise to stay pure of all Twilight teasers & "leaks" in order to delay gratification...

But then I accidentally opened a tab of the ghetto of the internet world, aka. mySpace and on the front page they where advertising the new Volturi Featurette on the New Moon page.

So as you can imagine it was all downhill from there...

I am a techie geek at heart and I LOVE Behind-The-Scenes goodies!

So after convincing myself it was okay to look at New Moon technical bits, I clicked away. And who would I be if I didn't screen cap most of it!

=]

-SO-

the Volturi coven:

 

 

 

 

 

 

From these caps I feel that the larger the star, the better the screen cap.

I tried, man. I tried. But mySpace time-bar slider thingy is not good for screen capping.

other worthy caps:

The Giver:

[Is it just me or has she lost weight since Twilight]

The Directing DILF:

[o, hai Ash!]

Hottie McHotHot:

*le sigh*

The Reason NM Visually Rocks:

Look up: J.J. Marako on IMDB,

he has worked stunts on over 100 movies!!!

 ...

I only capped this one as proof...

 ...she always looks pained and angsty.

My Grandma always said something along the lines of:

Don't keep angry face on too long

or it will freeze that way.

k, not exactly that but you get the gist.

I feel that KStew has overdone angst

and now her face is basically frozen that way...

Behind-The-Scenes:

As of yesterday,
I have seen New Moon twice!

I just want to say that the Volturi scene was probably one of my favorite of the whole movie! I was so looking forward to see how the Italy scenes were going to be interpreted and I was not let down!

As far as a New Moon Review...

I want to see it one more time before I say anything.
