Twitter time with Chris Weitz - 3/9/11

Q: @jeihlynn0921 @chrisweitz i want to ask if in the future you still want to work with Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stew and also Taylor Lautner? Turning irony off...
A: Yes, yes. I like the all very much. Fond memories.

Q: @tucheer83 @chrisweitz Since I'm watching NewMoon I have 2 ask: Y didn't you have Edward steal the pics from Bella but decided to let them disappear?
A: Film narrative -- seeing him steal the pics would give away the game. But seeing them not there all at once would, to me, lessen the impact

Q: @tucheer83 @chrisweitz What visual effect would you like to change the most if you had a chance in NewMoon & why?
A: I would NOT have superimposed my 6-pack on Taylor and let him take all the credit.

Q: @Ahymhee @chrisweitz just noticed on #newmoon, bella punching jacob hurt much while punching paul was nothing... same wolf but diff attack?
A: Jacob's jaw was clenched with deep emotion.

Q: @athenia_22 @chrisweitz if you had to choose either rob or kristen to babysit your son who would you choose? hehe
A: Taylor

Q: @AwesomeArianna @chrisweitz It's whateva wednesday right? Random: Did you guys use Virgin Airlines in NM as a crack towards E/B virginity? Please do tell!
A: Yes, the idea of using that airline amused me...

Q: @xanda_cristina @chrisweitz what did you think of Taylor Lautner effort to gain muscle?
A: rather successful.

Q: @dughtarefil how did you motivate kristen for that painfull break-up scene in the forest?
A: I told her LeBron was leaving Cleveland

Q: @BellaLuna1123 @chrisweitz Hey! I heard Kristen cooks all the time and really well...Did you try any of her infamous pies or meals?!? If so,was it delish?
A: She COOKS? That bitch... (Haha! Chris is obviously joking here. Calm down)

Q: @tucheer83 @chrisweitz Now here's the season's scene. Y didn't you let Edward take the pics like the book & chose to let them disappear off the wall?
A: Yeh. Nice to see it in the process of happening; her heart is still breaking.

Q: @mvdsbRDTP @chrisweitz in BD do you think edwards penis should sparkle?? ;)
A: only if he is nude sunbathing.

Q: @AlenaZatirakhi @chrisweitz Do you hate the paparazzi?
A: Sometimes what they do is dangerous (chase cars etc). Sometimes it hurts the private lives of my friends. Hate? No. I don't much care for em. BUT some "stars" are in cahoots with the paparazzi vis their PR people (nobody I know). And how else would I see nutty photos of Bai Ling?

Q: @Dremnghr @chrisweitz How does a Director audition for a movie/project he (or she) is interested in??
A: You go and meet with bunch of suits and talk about you "vision" and "passion" for the film. And the occasional beezh.

Holliday Granger talks about Rob and 'Bel Ami' in interview with InStyle UK

From InStyle UK - March 2011 issue

In Bel Amì, my character marries Robert Pattinson. Robert is lovely. I worked with him pre-Twilight and he's not changed since then.The leads are Uma Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas and Christina Ricci, so I'd turn up to make-up trailer and be like, "I'm sitting next to Uma"

Amanda Seyfried talks Hardwicke’s eye for chemistry, mentions Kristen & Rob

Director Catherine Hardwicke made Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner household names when she cast the trio of young actors in “Twilight” in 2008. Now she hopes to work her same star-making magic with “Red Riding Hood.”

Though Seyfried has appeared in more than a dozen films, Irons and Fernandez have just a handful of acting credits each. The 25-year-old actress says Hardwicke has “an eye for casting and she has an eye for chemistry.”

“When she sees two people connect, she becomes your biggest fan she wants to take that and make that into something beautiful,” Seyfried says. “I think she saw that with Rob (Pattinson) and Kristen (Stewart) and she has been very vocal about that. When she first saw Shiloh (Fernandez) and me do our chemistry read, she saw something and I saw something.”

Twitter time with Chris Weitz - 3/8/11

Q: @LMCullen @chrisweitz BTW the fandom LOVES Edward's "Sex Walk" in NM, when he arrives at the beginning. Does Rob walk like that in real life? LOL
A: No, I had to teach him. Off camera I was saying "Yeah, work it girl, own it -- own it" and then we removed my voice

Q: @apr675 @chrisweitz Favorite line from the movie?
A: Yeah, action, adrenaline... that's my thing" -- KS improv

Q: @THoffman06 @chrisweitz Best behind the scenes quote...GO
A: Your son has huge eyeballs" -- Rob of my son Sebastian

Q: @LivingWEdward @chrisweitz Did you have to treat Rob's eyebrows like they were their own character? Were they hard to work with?
A: The left one wants more pay than the right one.

Q: @lilopopsicle @chrisweitz is kristen nicer in person than she makes out to be?
A: I don't agree with the press consensus that she makes out to be mean, but she's great

Q: @micksim @chrisweitz One thing I always wondered... Why is Edward so damn emo at the beginning of NM? Before the Jasper thing??
A: He senses the end coming. Also, Rob's new contact lenses hurt.

Q: @BadrieAli your mission to make robert pattinson get a twitter account, what do you think will be your success rate out of 100%”
A: -100

Q: @StewsOzBird @chrisweitz if you could change Alice's vision of VampBella in NM, how would it have looked? Different clothes? No slo-mo?
A: Shot 1: Aloce's eyes in Aro's eyes. Shot 2: Bella's (golden) eyes in Alice's eyes. back to Aro's eyes. Done.

Q: @misskrista18 @chrisweitz what happens to all of the stuff we know u filmed for NM(like Alice talkin bout the cake at the bday party) will we ever see it?
A: dunno... Depends if they want to make more money with like the "super platinum megafan edition III" or something. Actually I wrote a line for Alice that went, "well, we could eat it, but we'd have to vomit it out later", which seemed to encourage bulimia. Bad.

Q: @TropicNebula @chrisweitz can I ask u why did u leave out the flight home from Italy and edwards Speech towards the end ?
A: Well, this stuff always xcmes down to a sense of pace and whether the film moves well. Course some would be happy with a 10 hour version..

Q: @tinkrbe1l3 @chrisweitz i LOVED the extended scene of Edward walking to the Volturi. he looks so devastated. sad it was cut :( it wld have added seconds.
A: It was a lovely shot, 96 frames per second, v. Fluid. Oh well.

A: they offeredbut I loved the innuendo

Q: @RachelPolner @chrisweitz why did you have Jacob go nuts at the cinema?only thing really against the book.loved it anyway.favorite by far.wish u did twilt

A: Fab. Honest, decent, kind, unpretentious.

Q: @SkylarLSpencer @chrisweitz I'm sorry if you've already covered this, but if not, can you address Edward's wonky nipple in NM? What was up with that?
A: It is complicated but has to do with the Mayan astronomical calendar.

Q: @julyfarnesi @chrisweitz you talk a lot about Rob. So tell us who is the best musician in the cast?
A: Me, I play a mean spoon

Q: @Melbobson @chrisweitz who would you play if you could ay any part, in any of the films and why?
A: I would love to lift Rob in the air by the neck like Daniel Cudmore did. No offense, Rob, but it must've been fun.

Q: @NatashaJK @chrisweitz what do you think of Jacob imprinting on Renesmee? Do you think Renesmee should also appear as a teenager in Breaking Dawn?
A: Natasha, I will be straight with you, it is odd. They asked me to come up with a bit of dialogue that would make it sound less weird..when Tyler's character imprints, and I said, "There is no way to make it less weird".

Q: @CrepMex @chrisweitz What is your son´s impression on New Moon?

Q: @kathycarrillo@chrisweitz did you pull any pranks on set?
A: Yes, I pulled a prank on all the cast, it was called New Moon

Q: @FPOnTheDL @chrisweitz Why don't you follow Twilight? Is it because you know it's Summit's janitor tweeting from there? LOL

Q: @JeenDPattz @chrisweitz It's difficult working with Robert Pattinson?
A: Trying to make that mug look good is HARD.

Q: @soccer_jude @chrisweitz If you had to pick, would you go wolf or sparkly vamp?

Q: @theamandahuck @chrisweitz In New Moon's deleted scenes there is one with a guy who crashes a on a motorcycle.. what was that all about? I have an idea. JW
