“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!
BEST VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE!
robert is soooo droolable!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOUUUUUUU LARRY!!!
xx
Personnellement, je trouve Nikki Reed splendide! Elle est vraiment faite pour ce rôle. J'ai hâte de voir le film!!!!
Nikki et Kellan sont tout simplement géniaux!!!
I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Really, everything looks just right.
All scenes already look so impressing and how awesome it will be with special effects!
I love all the actors, who are so into their characters. They are so talented and done such a huge work.
Now I can say for sure -
IT's GONNA BE WORLDWIDE #1 HIT!!!
what would this world be like without larry and mtv!
i quite literally passed out as i watched the movie...and woke up as it was ending!
i'm still shaking and it's making it quite hard to type
thank god for you guys!
this is the greatest thing i have seen....EVER! thank you MTV!
aaah i love it!!!
i think paperbags are needed as well lol ive just died and gone to heaven!
PS.
I'M SPIDERMONKEY! ;)
I think I hyperventilated a bit when I saw it. ha ha.
Robert's American accient is pretty dreamy, especially with the line he said in the video. I can't wait for another of your updates!
And my favorite part about it had to be the Nomads. Even though they're the bad guys, that doesn't mean they can just be hidden away in the darkness!
I'm also super happy Esme/Elizabeth finally got to show her face. We haven't seen her since the first promo pics done by Summit (unless you count that minute scene she's bending over behind Kristen and Robert in the "brooms" video).
Again, thank you!
P.S. Got the link from twilightlexicon.com
As I said before, I love you! Summit and MTV, you are so generous! Thank you so much!
Catherine Hardwicke is my new heroine!
This is insane...I can't believe I am awake.
Not what do you die for. What a mortifying thought. :-P
ROBERT'S AMERICAN ACCENT IS PRETTY MUCH THE HOTTEST THING IN THE ENTIRE WORLD.
i think this is the first time in the history of accents that an american accent can sound hotter than the native british one.
ginairnoejngiojreogijerpoi'nb'olnvlkrea.
^that was me dying on the keyboard.
OMG RPATTZ.
thank you so much Larry. And Summit. Oh god.
And there's that oh so unimportant fact that when december finally comes around I'm going to SCREAM BLOODY MURDER ALL WAY THROUGOUT THE MOVIE...or have an heart attack. Jeez.
seriously, cant wait to see the treetop clip!!!!!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
MTV and the TWILIGHT LEXICON you rule!! THANKS AGAIN
Thanks for the video - my heart keeps stopping when I watch it. I want to be Edward's spider monkey!! Can Carlisle be my doctor next time i'm in the hospital, too??
Keep 'em Commin MTV! Can't wait for Twilight Tuesdays!!
can't breath...the scene in the hospital is awesome! :))))
lOVE, RaBBIT.
that was amazing!!!!!!
I want more! I need more video clips! And dang it, I won't be able to concentrate on my work now!
Role on December!
What that really a slip and slide? And what in the world was it being used for? I saw that clip and all I could think was, "Wow, they've had a great time filming this movie."
Comment 1:
Rob's accent. It just shows how talented he really is. I think every girl on the planet had a small heart attack when they heard the spider monkey line.
Comment 2:
Kristen's scream at the end, or the little lines throughout the clips you could hear snippets of. She's good. Very Very Very Good.
Comment 3:
I don't know if I'm going to be able to hate Victoria anymore...
And lastly -
I think everyone has worked so hard on this movie. It doesn't look low budget at all, and I think the entire crew put 110% into everything. From the actors trying their hardest to portray characters we're obsessed with, to Catherine Hardwick making sure every line/action/romantic scene is perfect, I think Twilight is really going to rock. Who woulda thought I might love the movie just as much (more?) than the books! The efforts on this film have been great, thanks MTV for keeping us updated, Summit for releasing this, and the Lexicon for keeping me posted!
The hospital scene.. O___O *dies*
And Jasper playing baseball omg!!! :D
also thanks to : twilightlexiconblog.com for adding on the video.
Thank you TwilightMOMS (B&S) for the news!!!
I can't hear the video, because I'm deaf -sniff- but the footage was freakin' awesome! I'm having heart palpatations right now! Never thought I'd be excited for that rofl.
WE LOVE YOU LARRY! And Kristen and Rob and Kellan and Ashley and Nikki and Jackson and all the actors and everyone who is involved with this movie! Not to mention the kickass director! Praise Catherine. And Larry.
I'm starting a new religion. Larryism. -nod-
Incorrect?? That video was PERFECTION in the rough!
I almost had a heart attack and I forgot how to breathe for 4 minutes. I was hyperventilating.
And I nearly cried my heart out, I literally screamed when it began.
- I loved Bella's scream "NO, Edward, don't!". It was SO BELLA!!!
- The action scenes with James are ACE.
- I love the scene of the hospital where Edward hugs Bella. So cute.
- And the "bad guys"! They totally rock! I loved when they were coming and the leafs were blowing in their way, they looked so wild, like rockstars or something. Victoria is so perfect!
- And for the haters who were bashing the cast...well, E-A-T Y-O-U-R W-O-R-D-S!
Thank you guys from MTV, thank you Catherine Hardwicke, thank you cast, THANK YOU Stephenie Meyer!
