Twilight has doomed us all
21st September 2009
Filmdrunk – “Twilight has doomed us all” was the caption to this screencap over at The Daily What. It’s not wrong, but let’s be honest, this represents at least 10 reasons why we’re doomed before Twilight even enters the picture. For instance, the number two goal behind vampire is model. And apparently, being a pharmacist is far more popular than being a doctor. I don’t even know what a pharmacist does other than make you wait 20 minutes for stuff. Additionally, it seems a lot of people are really curious about becoming anorexic. Relax, fatty, there’s no entrance exam.
‘Twilight’ director gives up on sequel. Search goes on for new victim blood.
08th December 2008
Summit Entertainment has announced that it will not move forward with director Catherine Hardwicke for the Twilight sequel New Moon.
According to Summit’s press release, the studio and Hardwicke could not come to terms on a schedule; Summit’s plan to release the film at the end of 2009 or beginning of 2010 did not work with the amount of prep time Hardwicke wanted to dedicate to New Moon.
What a wuss. But then I don’t really care.
Box Office Winner – 4 Christmases
30th November 2008
All the returns aren’t in just yet, but it appears that 4 Christmases will knock Twilight out of the #1 slot for box office numbers this Thanksgiving Weekend. Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughn appear to have the magic touch as their comedy has appealed to movie-goers of all ages. After a big win last weekend, Twilight appears to be headed for a #2 finish. Australia, the WWII epic drama starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman, has lagged behind the leaders and may not even crack the Top 5.
Here is EW’s take on Thanksgiving Weekend Movies this holiday weekend.
