“This looks just right.”
Our friends at Summit Entertainment premiered a mind-blowing new “Twilight” clip for the lucky crowds at New York’s Comic-Con this weekend, featuring that quote from a set-visiting Stephenie Meyer. Quite frankly, we’re inclined to agree.
Now, we’re passing the clip on to you, along with a warning: For all of you who’ve memorized every line of the novels, hungered for each tidbit of info you can find on our site, and cursed every month between now and December, please make sure you’re sitting down as you press play. Also, a crash helmet might come in handy. (CLICK HERE TO PLAY IT, AND RETURN TO READ THE REST…)
The tasty video tidbit yet begins with footage of Jackson Rathbone swinging a baseball bat, and leads into several others shots from the beloved baseball scene. Not only do you get a look at the uniforms that clad the Cullens, but you also get a quick peek at a showdown that looks half Rugby-scrum, half Jets vs. Sharks-like rumble.
Feel free to indulge in your shrieking as you glimpse Edward kissing Bella’s head in the hospital, giving her the “I want to kill you/no I don’t” stare in Biology class, and getting ready to give her a piggyback up a tree with the warning “You’d better hold on tight, spider-monkey!” OMG, Robert just spoke without his accent! And, could this be the beginning of the notorious “treetops” scene)?
Giving us what might be an early peek at the film’s marketing campaign, we get the tagline “When you can live forever, what do you die for?” and uber-cool trading cards introducing Bella, Edward, Dr. Carlisle Cullen, Esme, Alice, Emmett, Rosalie and…wait for it…The Nomads!
Try not to give your computer a meltdown with all the pause-play-pause you’ll use to glimpse at footage like the wire work, the vampires using movie magic to walk quickly towards the camera, what looks to be a Slip ‘n Slide, some poor dude getting his head ripped off, and a sweet preview of Bella’s scream.
“Not one shot is easy,” grins director Catherine Hardwicke in the clip. “I love it. Welcome to Twilight!”
What’s your favorite shot in the clip? Anything look particularly authentic or incorrect to you? Discuss, Twilighters!



I LOVE YOU LARRY AND I LOVE THE LEXICON!
ALL
HAIL
LARRY!!
I am now starting a national ''i heart larry'' hoiday in Ireland!!!

AHHH!
Thank you Larry! You're awesome!!!
Everything looked amazing, my mind isn't really forming coherent thoughts yet. The entire cast is perfect - and Rob's American accent....*drool*
December can't come fast enough.

thanks MTV
thank you so much (:
i literally got the chills & started screaming while watching this.
thanks for the warning that we need to sit down before watching.
DECEMBER IS SO FAR AWAY!!!!!!!
This video was awesome!!!!!
Thanks!!
But... I think that spidermonkey line is pretty cheesy. When I hear that, I think of a crazy monkey flying through the air and that doesnt match up with my picture of Bella. Hah. Oh well I love it anyways!!
the actors are great...I think they really match with the characters in the book! rob will be a great edward...and kristen is the perfect bella! they are all perfect! I think actors, crew and director are doing a relly good job!
can't wait to see the movie!
AMAZING video!
We love you MTV and Summit.

;)
Thank you, we love you!
P.S. *Shrieks again*
I am so glad I bought new underwear yesterday.
BUT whoa that was just AMAZING!!!!
What is up with Laurent's hair? Idk if that was just me..but it kinda werided me out...but anywho..
I noticed that they dont show a lot about "Esme".. this is the first clip and like interview I have read or seen... I kind of want more..because she was one of my fav charcters in the book..she was just so motherly and so nice. lol.
I loved the clothes they were wearing at the baseball scene! They were all dressed up! so cute!
Bella's room! OMG! Edward's voice! "You better hold on tight spider monkey!" OMG. Okay, that line was kinda werid...but it was Robert in a american accent...like actully being Edward! =D
I love the fight scene! I can't wait to see that! And when little poor Alice rips off his head! WHOA! I was like shocked.. but it was so cool too!
This is just making me soo anxious for the book!!
Oh, yea and the hospital scene! OMG! soo cute and I think that matched pretty good with the book..even though they didint say anything..but that kiss! And I liked how you had Stephenie Meyer in the vid talking! That was great!
THANK YOU MTV!
THANK You Larry!!!
More videos and blogs pleaseee!
Okay. Now. I love all the actors so much more now. I loved them before but now...!
And I love the spider-monkey line. Oh my god do I love the spider-monkey line.
And Catherine is pure genius. You can tell how much this movie means to her. It's not another movie to put her name on, it's a vision recreated.
The only twitching I had was over Jackson not being specific (Jasper can induce or control any emotion, not just calm people).
I can't wait to see the movie. My friends and I are already planning on dressing up (me as Alice because of my lovely height of 4' 10"!).
Go Twilight!
This was absolutely incredible!!!
WORDS cannot possible describe!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
once again...U RULE LARRY!!!!.\m/(^-^)\m/
