Many of you are probably wondering....
Most likely many of you have been asking yourselves: "Why hasn't there been any updates? Where is the news??!!". Well here's my answer. As of right now I'm buried alive in a pile of textbooks trying to retain information that may just help me pass my semester finals. I'm sorry to say that I'm not going to be posting anything over the next 2 weeks or so. Until this craziness is over, Cullenboys is on lockdown. If I happen to magically have time and sign online and notice anything huge going on, then I'll buy some time and make a quick post, but not likely. I'll see you in 2 weeks! Happy Holidays!

***December 7, 2008***
Since we always try to keep everybody informed about everything going on in movie news, here is another press release from Summit Entertainment:
SUMMIT BEGINS SEARCH FOR NEW MOON DIRECTOR
Los Angeles, CA, December 7, 2008 — Summit Entertainment and director Catherine Hardwicke jointly announced today that the filmmaker will not be directing the next installment in the newly minted TWILIGHT film franchise. Summit's targeted end of 2009 or early 2010 release of the film, NEW MOON, does not work with Ms. Hardwicke's required prep time to bring her vision of the film to the big screen. Thus as has been done before with many successful film franchises, the studio will employ a new director for NEW MOON.
"I am sorry that due to timing I will not have the opportunity to direct NEW MOON," said Hardwicke. "Directing TWILIGHT has been one of the great experiences of my life, and I am grateful to the fans for their passionate support of the film. I wish everyone at Summit the best with the sequel—it is a great story."
"Catherine did an incredible job in helping us to launch the TWILIGHT franchise and we thank her for all of her efforts and we very much hope to work with her on future Summit projects," said Erik Feig, Summit's President of Production. "We as a studio have a mandate to bring the next installment in the franchise to the big screen in a timely fashion so that fans can get more of Edward, Bella and all of the characters that Stephenie Meyer has created. We are able to pursue an aggressive time frame as we have the luxury of only adapting the novels into screenplays as opposed to having to create a storyline from scratch."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lets hope that the new director will do a good job taking the story on as a movie and won't butcher it for the fans.
Poll Updates:
The results are in for the poll question: What is your favorite book in the Twilight saga?
Twilight 60 (31%) New Moon 4 (2%) Eclipse 17 (8%) Breaking Dawn 23 (11%) Midnight Sun (at least what I have read of it) 8 (4%) I don't have a favorite, I like them all! 80 (41%) I don't like any of them. 1 (0%)
Votes: 193
Of the single votes, Twilight seems to be the favorite (no surprise there haha). My personal favorite is Eclipse. I just love all of the Edward-Jacob scenes, especially how Edward tries to keep Bella from seeing Jake and also the tent scene. Also of course the final show down at the end. Anyone care to share why their favorite is their favorite?

Exciting announcement reguarding new moon!!
Thursday, November 20, 2008
Midnight showing!!!!!! ****
ok wow. I honestly don't even know where to start with this. Let me just say that the movie surpassed all of my expectations. It was just right and what all of the critics are saying are the perfect things. If you haven't read the books, then you most likely would not find very much talent in the actors or understand the storyline very well. The movie stayed to the core of the story wonderfully. Robert Pattinson could not have done a better job. His voice was velvet, scary when needed, and his facial expressions delivered with ease. It almost seemed natural to him. Kristen Stewart was definitely clumsy and did not look like she was forcing it, like rob she looked natural (except for a few parts the way she talked was a bit odd but other than that it was phenomenal). All of the guys were hilarious and I don't just mean the cullens, I mean even the humans were! Mike, Tyler, and Eric were perfect. When you go see it keep an eye on Mike especially and you'll see why I'm mentioning him exclusively. (haha) I'm very happy with the turnout and definitely do not think that it put a damper on the book. Before, I thought they were over-hyping it wayyyyyy too much and I was waiting for it to turn out horrible. Everything that Summit, the directors, the actors, and Stephenie did to promote this film and hype it up did not fail. This movie will make millions, we already know that, and it is definitely obvious that New Moon will be made into a movie. They left kind of a cliff-hanger like ending after the prom and so that is definitely a good show of the director's and summit's confidence that there will be a sequel. As for me: I'm signing off and going to bed. I've got to get up for school in about 3 hours and I don't think that'll go over too well. Then as soon as that 3:05 bell rings I'm heading straight to Gymnastics practice and then making a beeline for the movie theater to see it again. I don't think that movie will ever get old to me. I hope that those of you who were not fortunate enough to see a midnight showing of the movie will enjoy it later this afternoon and please post your opinions!! I'd love to know what everyone is thinking about the movie.
Good night and sweet dreams!

Elizabeth sent this to me yesterday:
USA Weekend Magazine has given us the exclusive first look at their Twilight cover for this weekend (its November 14-16 issue). USA WEEKEND will also feature an exclusive Twilight poster inside. Click here to see which local paper in your area carries USA Weekend.
Also, I have been forwarded the following news from Atlantic Records (the company that produced the soundtrack):
"Twilight Soundtrack is #1!
It has been confirmed today that the Twilight Soundtrack is the #1 most-selling album this week in the U.S. according to Billboard! This is a huge feat for a soundtrack BEFORE the movie has even been released, and really goes to show the passion and dedication of all you Twi-hards out there. So a huge thanks to everyone who picked up a copy, we hope you are loving it!"

That's really saying a lot about the Twilight fandom and how the Twilight Soundtrack is no. 1. I mean, the movie ISN'T EVEN OUT YET!! I think it's just awesome. Thanks to all who bought a soundtrack! =]

Exclusive clip from heroes
Monday, November 10, 2008
Update SM's site
Today it was updated on news about Twilight movie tickets, The Twilight talent tour, and the exclusive clip to be shown on heroes tonight! I'm a pretty big fan of Heroes so I'm pretty stoked for tonight's show. Even if you've never seen the show I'd suggest you tune in because 1) it's an awesome show that you most likely will like 2) you get a new Twilight scene! See? it's 2 for 2 and everybody wins =] here's today's post:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
***November 10, 2008***
Twilight Movie News (and yes, there are only 11 days left!):
For those of you who have emailed me about the Twilight Talent Tour (see October 31st post), I am very sorry. I promised to post more information, and I forgot because the information was never forwarded to me. If you are interested, click here for the complete list of locations and rules.
And that is not the only thing that I feel guilty about. Over the weekend I read several movie blogs that discussed the pre-sales of movie tickets. All of the articles that I read mentioned that a lot of showings from the opening weekend are already sold out. Sites like Fandango and MovieTickets.com have been selling tickets for a couple of weeks and we have not made any mention of it on our site. Consider yourself warned!
And finally, in case you haven't heard it from anyone else, there will be an exclusive clip from the movie shown during Heroes tonight on NBC. Although I haven't heard anything about the clip, I would suggest tuning in because I think Heroes is a pretty good show.
