TWO...TWO...TWO...I VOTE FOR TWO!!!!

OK, so I am happily surfing the net as I soak in the tub (on the wireless netbook belonging to the girl child...shhhh...she doesn't know) and I see this little tidbit:

“Wyck Godfrey, the producer of all the films in the “Twilight” saga, admits that the creative team still doesn’t know how they’ll handle the character [Renesmee] in the “Breaking Dawn” movie, but said that the plan is absolutely for the production to go forward — as either one or two installments — with an eye toward beginning to shoot in Vancouver this fall. All three stars are signed for “Breaking Dawn,” he said, meaning that Stewart and Pattinson will be dealing with the joys and woes of interspecies parenting and newly minted heartthrob Taylor Lautner will return as often-shirtless shape-shifter Jacob Black.



At the moment, screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg, who’s penned all the “Twilight” movies, is working on the “Breaking Dawn” script(s). “It’s a work in process,” Godfrey said in an interview Friday. “The issue [of whether there will be one or two movies] is not going to be resolved until we get the full treatment and see whether it’s organic. If it’s not organic, I don’t think it will be done, and if it is, it will be. It really has to do with how much level of detail from the books there is, with all of these new vampires that appear in ‘Breaking Dawn,’ the whole section about Jacob… It’s a very long single movie if it does become a single movie.”
 
OK, seriously...ONE MOVIE????  How the hell will they cram all that is Breaking Dawn into one movie?  It will be 10 hours long!   Really?  Just give it up and go for two.  I can PROMISE you will make a killing on it!  Who can we write about this?  Perhaps some more surfing is in order...
 
On another note, I think we need a movie night once the official New Moon DVD comes out!!  Girls, drinks, and Edward (ok, Jacob for you wolf lovers...sheesh)--sounds pretty good to me!!! 
 

March 21st...girls' night...mark it on your calendar!!

It's darn cold...and where have I been?

OK, I have been a bad blogger lately...it has just been crazy busy with Christmas, the stomach bug (ugh...that really sucked), and the general nuttiness of this time of year!!!  But I am back and ready to talk about stuff with my bestest friends!!

Now, I have to state that is was DARN COLD today.  Really?  29 degrees in Texas?  Wind chill of 7?  Seriously?  That is Missouri weather and I DON'T miss it!  I do have to admit that as I was obtaining frostbite on the fingers and toes in the bus lane this morning, I did have a laugh-out-loud moment...I was shivering and lamenting my lot in life when I remembered the tent scene in Eclipse.  Remember...freak cold storm, snow, space heaters???  I very crossly thought of how I would rather freeze solid than snuggle up to Jacob--sorry my dear Jacob obsessed friends...can't even jump of the wolf-wagon when I am freezing to death!  I laughed out loud at the absurdity of that thought.  Though I do suppose that just goes along with my firm allegiance to Team Edward.  :-)

Anyway, only 173 days until Eclipse!!  I am starting to get really excited...can you say IMAX?????  Love it!!!

BTW, did you see that an early copy of the script was leaked online this week???  Interesting news to say the least.  I, for one, won't be reading it, though.  I want that excitement of the midnight movie to be as great as it was for New Moon!  Besides, it's not as if we don't know how the whole thing goes...

Have you seen the awesome new skins for laptops, iPods, & phones???  They are really cool:


Hmmm...I have some Christmas money with no purpose...here is the link for you interested folks:

Well, gotta go and make some dinner for the offspring.  Sigh.  Being a vampire would be so much easier...no dishes.
