The Breaking Dawn Situation

News broke all over the Internet today with news of certain Twilight stars reportedly asking for a raise in conjuncture with Summit planning on releasing Breaking Dawn as 2 films. When the Twilight franchise began, Summit tied the actors in a contract for only 3 films, not knowing what kind of success the franchise would endure. After Summit realized what they had on their hands, the small film studio re-negotiated the contracts of all the stars to tie them down for a fourth movie, Breaking Dawn. However, Summit realized that Breaking Dawn was too lengthy of a story and to cut it down to one film would be murder.  Once author Stephanie Meyer signed off on the deal to make it 2 films, the preparations began. With none of the film's stars being signed up for a fifth installment, Summit began scrambling to secure everyone.

The problem was, most of the cast had become huge Hollywood names by this time. Taylor Lautner is ranking almost 8 million dollars a film and the secondary actors had begun their climb up the HW charts. So once again, Summit had to re-negotiate with the actors and actresses. They have tied just about everyone down for the fifth movie, including Robert, Kristen, and Taylor. But there are some Cullen vampires that are dragging their feet. It seems that Hollywood has gotten to these new stars and they are demanding another raise for a fifth film. In particular, the finger has been pointed at Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene as the ones who are making a fuss.

Reports are that even though Summit has offered them TEN times the amount they originally were payed, the stars are offended a the amount. They feel that since everyone is getting rich off of the saga, they should get a good chunk too. I get their point, if these reports are true. These actors are involved in something that had become such a huge hit, it turned Summit into an actual movie studio. The money that people are making off of these films is an amount that would blow people's minds and without these young stars, none of the would be possible. 

In this perspective, I totally understand Kellan and Ashley's point. However, these kids need to realize who they are dealing with. Remember a certain redhead named Rachelle Lefevre, who played Victoria?  Her agents played hardball on both her fee and scheduling and she was replaced with Bryce Dallas Howard. I comprehend that Kellan has become sought after and has been tied to some pretty big roles, but they need to be careful. This is the LAST installment in the franchise and rumors are that Summit intends there to be a fifth film, with or without the whole cast. They have no problem throwing in replacements at the last-minute. Some reports are that Summit is contemplating have Stephanie Meyer re-write some scenes, including a battle that would take care of Emmet and Alice to keep them out of the fifth movie. 

Summit is also contemplating moving production to Louisiana to save on dough. And moving the filming to the U.S would help us out a bit, given our economy. It's clear that Summit is on a mission to make this fifth film and gain as much money from it as possible. But it's also clear that these stars may be a little too cocky.

You don't bite the hands the feed you and Summit has lined your cabinets, Kellan and Ashley. Without your roles in this franchise, who's to say that you would have even gotten a big break? Kellan, honey. I know that you are sexy and you have gotten a lot of attention with your underwear posing and commando jogging with your schlong flopping in the wind, but don't let it get to you. As quickly as it came to you, it can go away with a new reputation that could be born with this attempt. And Ashley, you have some films coming out. No roles as powerful as Poseidon , but it's something. You kids should enjoy this ride that was given to you and just ride it to the end. You owe Summit for making your name popular, just as they owe you for the same thing. It's in your best interest to come to an agreement because I can promise that as long as Jacob, Bella, and Edward are still there, teenagers around the world will be okay with losing a vamp or two. What do you think?

New Addition To Twilight Franchise!!

Stephanie Meyer, author of The Twilight Saga, is said to be releasing a novella that is an extension to the saga. 
The Short Second Life Of Bree Tanner is going to focus on a vampire from the Eclipse novel and will be available for sale on June 5, conveniently just a couple of weeks before the Eclipse release date, June 30th.

The story is told in the voice of Bree, whom we meet in the Eclipse installment on page 569, who is a newborn vamp.  Only thing is, Bree died just ten pages later.  So when the say short life, they mean it.

"I started writing this a long time ago," Meyer said in an exclusive interview with USA TODAY. "It was when I was editing Eclipse. It was more of just an exercise so I could be clear about what was going on in the story."

Could this mean that Stephanie is toying with the idea of maybe a different twist with another saga?  Maybe with character we already know?

"There's only so much stuff you can tell when what Bella sees and hears is all you can tell," Meyer says.

"The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner is pretty much contained in the last week of the newborns' existence before the big fight (between the Cullens and the vampire army) in the meadow in Eclipse," Meyer says. "It's the last week before Bree dies."

In the novella, Meyer says, Bree has been a vampire for about three months. No other details are being released.

However, parts of Bree's will be seen in the Eclipse film. The character of Bree is played by Canadian actress Jodelle Ferland.

We have all prayed and hoped that the next Twilight title released would be Midnight Sun, the story of Twilight told in Edward Cullen's voice.  Fans know that some fuck tard leaked Stephanie's unfinished manuscript on the net causing a irate Meyer to abandon the project until she she is able to have the peace of mind to finish it.  Something that I am glad Summit did not bribe her into half-assing just for the box office explosion it would generate.

"I think they're all waiting for Midnight Sun," says Meyer, who put Sun on hold indefinitely in 2008, "But I'm not writing about vampires right now."

Well son of a bitch.

Did Rob put ring on it??

So this has been blowing up my email, my Twitter and everything else you can imagine.  Everyone wants to know about the ring Rob was supposedly seen buying.  Well I have it on very good authority, from the person who actually says he sold him the ring.  Now this guy has actually been responsible for getting jewelry for all of my managers clients.  He didn't come to me with the info though.  He actually delivered a friends jewelry for the Grammy's and mentioned it to my mgr.  My mgr., who I LOVE, in turn told me.  Now we are not 100%  positive since we didn't see it.  I am in told it was in fact an engagement ring, but when he was questioned about it, Rob said that someone had their eye on it and he was getting it for them.  Could be Kristen, could be a friend.  I have my sources checking it out ad even though I wil be filming out of the country soon, I will still be in touch and keep you informed.
