Robert Pattinson cleaned up at the box office this weekend, along with the rest of the "New Moon" cast. One of his co-stars, however, would love to get together with him off-screen in the recording studio. The mega-release prompted reactions from Rainn Wilson and Brent Spiner as well today. "Twilight" star Peter Facinelli, meanwhile, tried to create a new vampire with a few photo tricks and a shot of Kat Dennings.
Check out all of that after the jump, along with Ice-T's photo op with the Naked Cowboy, philosophizing from Jim Carrey and Paris Hilton's new exotic pet. They're all on the little retweet mix tape I put together for you in the Twitter-Wood report for November 23, 2009. Read more...
As many of you know, Peter Facinelli oversees a coven of vampires as Carlisle Cullen in the "Twilight" series. I'll always know him best as the jerk jock from "Can't Hardly Wait," but he's an ageless blood-sucker now. And don't let that vegetarian thing fool you. He's biding his time, building an army of vampires he will one day use to take over the world.
Facinelli's latest initiate is Kat Dennings, who we revealed yesterday has just joined the cast of "Thor." It's too late to help her, as you'll learn in this morning's Daily TwitPic. Dennings has already turned; who knows whose blood she feasted on last night to sustain her unlife? It's terrifying to think that ground zero for the world-ending vampire menace is Hollywood, but this is the world we now live in. Feel the fear after the jump. Read more...
Edward Woodward, the actor best remembered for his starring role in the TV series "The Equalizer" and his once-in-a-lifetime performance in the original pre-bees "Wicker Man," commanded a mountain of memorial tweets today. Simon Pegg, Edgar Wright and even Seth Meyers posted memories and favorite performances amid the news of his passing, and I join them. If you haven't seen him in 1973's "The Wicker Man," you're missing out on one of the all-time great horror/musical productions.
There were "New Moon" tweets today, too, of course. Peter Facinelli spent his pre-premiere morning getting his driver's license renewed, while Tinsel Korey posted a pic from outside and BooBoo Stewart prepped at the gym. Check out their tweets after the jump along with a Twitter Pic of the Day starring Michael Jackson and an "Iron Man 2" note from Jon Favreau. I'm @brianwarmoth, and this is the Twitter-Wood report for November 16, 2009. Read more...

Many of you are going to have just one word for this morning's Daily TwitPic:
Awwwwwwwww!
"New Moon" star Peter Facinelli may drink the blood of helpless fuzzy creatures in his role as patriarch of the Cullen clan, but in real life he's more interested in saving them. Or at least just making friends with them. The headline above doesn't lie. Facinelli shakes hands with a penguin in the pic after the jump. A cute, fuzzy penguin. And to the penguin's credit, it manages to keep itself together, even in the presence of a much-loved "Twilight" star. Maybe it's just crapping its pants (fur?) because it knows what those Cullen people are capable of. Read more...
Veteran's Day brought no shortage of veteran appreciation today in Twitter-Wood, prompting thanks and memories from across the board, as well as a personal note from "Twilight" actor Gil Birmingham.
Meanwhile, Jason Schwartzman's on his way to the NYC debut of "Fantastic Mr. Fox," which as a Wes Anderson follower, I am anxious to see myself this weekend. Another new release, "Precious," really got a hold of Tyrese Gibson, who said the film's been keeping him awake. Check out their thoughts along with pictures from Peter Facinelli and John Stamos and a Henry Winkler autograph to be jealous of after the jump. It's all in the Twitter-Wood report for November 11, 2009. Read more...
Cow films appear to be the official successor to the unseen prequels tag that was trending on Twitter earlier this week. Both Jon Favreau and Steve Agee made contributions today, while John August offered some criticism of ABC's new "V" series and Brian Lynch commemorated the 40th birthday of "Sesame Street."
In the "Twilight" neighborhood of Twitter-Wood, meanwhile, Peter Facinelli discussed an accidental oversleeping incident that resulted in a late arrival on-set. David Slade responded by thanking him for not ever being late during "Eclipse." Check out all of those tweets after the jump. It's all in the Twitter-Wood report for November 4, 2009. Read more...
I love it when headlines write themselves. This is one of those mornings. You all know who Peter Facinelli is of course. Star of the '90s high school comedy classic, "Can't Hardly Wait." Right? He's also in some movie called "Twilight," which I think has to do with vegetarians or vampires or forks or something like that. Who can tell these days?
Sooooo... right. In today's Daily TwitPic, the Cullen family patriarch poses for a photo with a cup strapped to his head. What appears to be a styrofoam cup. Not very green, Peter. I'm pretty certain this pic in some way comes from Peter's time on the "Nurse Jackie" set, as he's clearly wearing a lab coat and stethoscope. It's true that Carlisle Cullen is a doctor too, but if this were an image from the "Eclipse" set, Facinelli's face would be a whole lot paler. Anyway, hit the jump to see the "Can't Hardly Wait" star looking very serious. With a cup strapped to his head. Read more...
Simon Pegg came a little late to the "Unseen Prequels" meme that's been bouncing around Twitter this week, but I stuck his "Star Wars" proposal along with Jon Favreau's submission up at the top of the list today just the same.
Also discovering a trend late today appears to be "Twilight" actor Peter Facinelli, who's been exploring new Bluetooth headset technology. He and his "Eclipse" director David Slade show up in the Twitter-Wood report today, as does Facinelli's co-star Alex Meraz. Check out their posts after the jump, along with some more Pixar costumes from Lee Unkrich, and an M.I.A. performance caught by Nicky Hilton during the Jimmy Choo shoe debut for H&M. It all happened in Twitter-Wood, and it's in the report for November 3, 2009. Read more...
There must have been a "New Moon"-related tweet mandate out today, because the faces of "Twilight" clogged my Twitter feed today. David Slade posted an "Eclipse" update, Peter Facinelli TwitPic'd from his makeup chair and BooBoo Stewart posted a photo op moment with Latoya Jackson. Even Gil Birmingham contributed an off-screen group shot.
Candid pics showed up from non-"Twilight"-ers as well, though. Ken Jeong, Sarah Silverman and Eli Roth are all prominently features in today's tweet mix, in addition to Rainn Wilson on Bill Cosby and Mark Webber's on-set shot from his new movie "The Lie." It's a photo-heavy day full of links in the Twitter-Wood report for October 20, 2009. Read more...

Peter Facinelli has been getting a lot of attention from Daily TwitPic lately. It's his fault though (not that that's a bad thing). The guy has really taken to Twitter as a micro-blogging tool, giving fans glimpses into his daily happenings. And let's face it: when you spend your week on the set of the next "Twilight" movie, a lot of people are going to be interested in what you're up to.
For this morning's Daily TwitPic, Facinelli proves that "Eclipse" doesn't have such a closed set. How secure could it be if he's snapping pictures of his biggest fan? He also gives a follow shout to @I_Love_NY in his tweet, something I can wholeheartedly second as a fellow New Yorker. Hit the jump to check out Carlisle Cullen's biggest fan on the "Eclipse" set.
