Message from Bill Condon



Greetings to our global Twihard family,
On the flight now from Madrid to Berlin, I wanted to check in one last time, as you’re finally getting a look at what we’ve all been working on so intensely. It’s hard to believe that after our Berlin premiere tonight, my TWILIGHT journey will finally come to a close. It’s been almost three years since I first wrote to you. I’m very proud of what we’ve created together since then, and I hope that PART II fulfills your expectations for the grand finale to Stephenie’s sprawling saga. Fingers crossed that you’ve also managed to stay at least mostly spoiler-free, in order to enjoy the twists and parting gifts we have in store for you…
Thank you again for making me feel like a member of your fandom family online…for sleeping in The Line in San Diego in order to laugh with us in Hall H…for traveling great distances to join us in L.A. for last year’s Tent City and this year’s Fan Camp. Above all, thank you for trusting me with this universe you care so deeply about – we tried to match your intensity in our attention to every detail. That said, I don’t think I’ll ever live down the shame of being spied on by Twihard covens around the world on our very first night of shooting in Rio. Thanks to photos shot and instantly posted online of Bella and Edward on their honeymoon, we were called out in real time for missing a certain engagement ring… (Sorry — again!)
As with you all, what I’ll take with me from my time in Forks are so many great friendships – our massive cast of talented actors, and new creative partners such as Melissa Rosenberg, Guillermo Navarro and Phil Tippett. I hope to know them all for years and to work with them again soon, making movies yet to be dreamed up. At the L.A. premiere Monday night, Phil said we should make a “bloody, giant monster movie.” But is there room for a musical number?
See you at the theatre.
Forever,
Bill

Twilight Jewelry at Bed Bath & Beyond

WOW! Bed, Bath and Beyond is carrying the Official Twilight Jewelry Collection!!!


It's very pretty and very expensive!! I would love to get some Cullen Crest jewelry but the price! Eek! :/


I will have to check if we can use our BBB coupons on it!! That would make it a little better if you can get 20% off!! :)


Even with a coupon it would still be $$$ but hey any discount would be great!!! I would love to add some of these pieces to my collection.

Music Video for All I Ever Needed

Here is the music video for Nikki Reed and Paul McDonald's song "All I've Ever Needed" from the Breaking Dawn Part 2 Soundtrack!! ENJOY! It's a gorgeous song!





Twilight Marathon 11/15/12

Yesterday my sister and I attended the Twilight Saga Marathon!!! That's right... MARATHON!!! We were at the theater from 10:45 am 11/15 until 12:12am 11/16!!! IT WAS EPIC!!!


When we got there they gave us really cool lanyards and wristbands that got us into the theater all day long. It was awesome!!! 



In between each movie there was a break so that way you could get up and stretch. We even went out to lunch during the break between Twilight and New Moon. 


In the morning there was a good size group of fans there but as the day went on more and more Twilighters showed up. Most showed up for Breaking Dawn Part 1 probably since it started in the evening and most were out of work.

It was in between the break from Part 1 and Part 2 that I changed from my "I beat Emmett Cullen in Arm Wrestling" t-shirt that I had worn all day into a NEWBORN!!! I totally got my sparkle on....from head to toe with glitter spray that is!!



The atmosphere in the theater was great. When the lights went down and the previews started everyone started clapping. For those of you who haven't seen the movie yet I will not give away any spoilers. All I will say is that I laughed, cried, was on the edge of my seat, nervous, happy, sad, pissed off, excited....bascially an emotional roller coaster!! LOL 

It was TRULY a fantastic film. Bill, Kristen, Rob, Taylor, Melissa, Stephenie and the ENTIRE CAST and crew did a phenomenal job. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for an absolute perfect and lovely ending to the saga. It was EPIC!!!

Just because the movies are done does not mean it is over. It will live on forever in our hearts and I will always cherish everything and everyone that has come into my life since the beginning.

KEEPIN' THE SPARKLE ALIVE....FOREVER!

On a side note I loved the movie so much that I went to see it 2 more times on my day off today. Yay!!! That puts my total at 3 in less than 24 hours!! :)  WHOOP WHOOP!! EPIC!!


Oh and for those of you who are wondering if there was anything at the end of the credits. I have heard from someone who commented on TD FB that they asked a theater employee about something in the credits and they were told that it was only in select theaters.  I stayed 2 times and there was nothing at the end other than the Summit logo. Soooo if so I did not see it at mine. The cast surprise dance for Bill will be on the DVD I believe.

Twi-Goodies from Fans

OME!!! In the past 2 days, I have received the best packages from some fans of Twilighters Dream.

On Wednesday, I received this from Megan DeLano!!!!! Thank you sooooooo much!!!! She sent me a whole goody box with all kinds of hanging organizers in my favorite Dasmak pattern. They will look great in my newly redone guest room. She also sent premiere goody bags for my friends and I to take to the movie marathon. Super sweet Megan!!! Thank you so much!!! They arrived just in time. :)


Today I got home and I had another package in the mail. This one came from Amy Torres. She sent me all 4 Breaking Dawn Part 2 slap bracelets from Jamba Juice!!!!  Also a BD sleeve and trading card!!! SOO SWEET!! She saw that I had posted there weren't any Jamba Juices close to me so she went and got them for me. You Rock Girl!!!


THANK YOU SO MEGAN & AMY!!

YOU MADE MY DAY!!

KEEP THE SPARKLE ALIVE....FOREVER!

Breaking Dawn Twi-Surprise

Since I am not having a Twilight Party before the movie premiere on 11/16/12, I decided to make my last day at work before the Movie Marathon a fun day!! 

I have a great Twi-Surprise in store for my staff. Whether they are into it or not I am ready to twi-out tomorrow!! LOL Oh yes!! They have been warned. ;)

Here is a sneak peek at the twi-surprise that I am bringing to my own little Hallmark Breaking Dawn Party.... 


For tips and ideas on throwing your own Twilight Party be sure to read the blog "Dreaming up a Party". Also watch the video from my Twilight Party on my YouTube Channel.




Twi-Fight Winner Announced

THE TWI-FIGHT RESULTS ARE IN!!

MILLIONS OF FANS VOTED AND WE WENT FROM 64 TWILIGHT SAGA CHARACTERS DOWN TO 2.

EDWARD AND BELLA WERE IN THE FINALS...



WATCH JOSH HOROWITZ PRESENT ROB WITH THE AWARD DURING THE PREMIERE!


Breaking Dawn Part 2 Soundtrack


I went to Target tonight to pick up a twi-surprise to take to work tomorrow. While I was there I went to the electronics department to see if just maybe they had the Breaking Dawn Soundtrack out.  Guess what?!?! SCORE!!! They had it out for sale!!! And it was $9.99!! Whoop Whoop!!! I bought 2! LOL



I listened to the CD the entire ride home and I just love it. Since I’ve seen the Arm Wrestling clip on YouTube I laughed when the song came on. It reminded me of Forks and Arm Wrestling Emmett at Stephenie Meyer Day 2012. I have plans for that song so I can’t wait for some time off so I can work on that. That’s a little “something for you to look forward too!”


I absolutely love Nikki and Paul’s Song “All I Ever Needed”. It’s gorgeous heart felt and I can’t wait to hear it during the credit of the movie on Thursday. That’s right!! Nikki herself said during a Black Carpet interview during the Premiere in CA that the song would play during the credits.


Another song that I loved is Christina Perri’s remake of A Thousand Years!! She changed some of the words and listening to it on the drive home I had flashes of Edward and Bella through the years. I saw some of my very favorite moments from the Saga. It got me thinking that I wonder if this song will play during the ending that everyone is talking about. The cast and Bill Condon have said that there is a little tribute and special look back at all the movies that they think the fans will love. The song is beautiful and with the addition of Steve Kazee lending a male vocal it totally made me think of Edward and Bella singing.


I am looking forward to the movie and seeing where all the songs play. It is bittersweet and sad that this is the last soundtrack and that this is the last movie. However I am fondly enjoying every minute of it…. even if some tears are shed. The friendships and memories that I have made with other Twilighters will last a lifetime. 



Twilight will FOREVER be in Our Hearts!!!

Twi-Fight!!


It's between Edward & Bella!!!!




Who will you choose?!



Renesmee's Locket

YAY!!!! FINALLY RENESMEE'S LOCKET IS AVAILABLE AT HOT TOPIC!!!


I periodically check my local store and online for new merchandise and FINALLY we have something!!!! I was getting a little worried because I hadn't seen this come out yet. I was going to be thoroughly shocked if they didn't have this prop replica


I know there are many versions on Etsy.com but I wanted to get the one that NECA makes so I was hoping that they were going to make one.



The locket sells for $24.50 and if you pre-order yours right now from the website it will ship out on 11/14. I think I will be getting 2!!! How about you?!?!



Update 11/30/12: Renesmee's Locket will no longer be sold by Hot Topic due to quality issues. 

Update 1/3/13 - I ordered the HT Renesmee's Locket from NECA on Amazon and it arrived today!!! YAY!!! Thanks to a fellow Twilighter, Brenda Thompson, for sending me the link!!! Here is the link so you can order your own!! :) CLICK TO ORDER 





Halloween 2012

This year for Halloween I dressed up as Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games while I passed out candy to the kids. 


One girls recognized me as Katniss and said, "Ohhh you're Katniss. She's my favorite!!" LOL It was cute! 

After the trick or treating was over my hubby and I went out. While we were hanging out guess who we ran into.....

EDWARD & BELLA!!!!


I was so excited! LOL Of course I had to take my picture with them. You can never pass up the opportunity to get your picture with Edward.... Well this Twilighter can't!!


KEEP THE SPARKLE ALIVE!

I have a friend who works in the bakery at Target and they just received the image this week. She is going to make me one tomorrow so I can bring it to work and share with my staff this weekend.
