Later than usual

First: MOAR TWILIGHT. Yes, I did promise to do a 15M of the movie. I promised last May when I saw the first trailer, so y'all can relax. Twilight' Trailer Reactions: Some Fans Are Still Speechless, Others Just Can't Breathe; The Final ‘Twilight’ Trailer Is Here, And We Have Your Shot-By-Shot Analysis! (Please. I have already taken care of your tree-skittering, Jerome Robbins-choreographed, aerial slapfighting needs); the trailer music was from 'Interview with the Vampire'? (cute); Wendy Chuck explains the costumes of Twilight (Kiss Victoria, she's Irish. Also: NEEDS MOAR BEIGE); a couple of new pics; more new pics here, although it's hard to pick out the new-new ones; Full Photo Gallery of Twilight Male Cast in VMan Magazine (yes, including The Bad Ponytail Vampire that y'all all started going crazy for).

Also, from spike22fowl: The famous greenhouse scene! You know! The one that... wasn't... in the book. It seems to be taking the place of Bella bitching her way through the hospital in a neck brace after the Death Van, though, so that's all right by me. It also gives us the deathless line, "I had an adrenaline rush. They're very common. You can Google it." (No, really. Watch it with subtitles.) Kristen Stewart also has an excellent Bella-style "GOD I HATE EVERYONE *falls over* " bitchface going, I must say.

(Please notice The Hair staying carefully out of frame, watching for suspicious fangirl activity off-camera.)

(Re: my choice of music: get Edward in full NOOOO I WILL NOT CRUSH YOU IN THE MISSIONARY POSITION mode in your head and go throw this song on your mp3 player. It will BLOW YOUR MIND.)
