As long as behind-the-scenes footage of The Twilight Saga: New Moon keeps surfacing that reveals little more than Taylor Lautner's biceps, we thought we might as well make a separate PopWatch category for it. Ergo, the Taylor Lautner Bicep Watch. We launch with the video below. Taylor Lautner's biceps make their appearance at 2:10. (Robert Pattinson appears at 2:53, for eight seconds. Wah waaaaaah.)

Robert Pattinson: Sexy on the Set

Having worked through the weekend, Robert Pattinson was back on the set this morning (June 15) for another day of filming “Remember Me.”

The hunky “Twilight” stud worked it for the camera like a seasoned pro, sporting a plaid button-up shirt with a t-shirt underneath and jeans with sneakers.

Rob’s “New Moon” costar Ashley Greene recently told press that she’s a bit worried that Pattinson’s fame is a little too much for him.

She explained, “Oh God. Poor Rob is already a Beatle. His whole life is documented. If he picks his nose, it’s all over the Internet. He’s just done for. I think he’s kinda freakin’ out, like, ‘What the f--k is going on?’”

Robert Pattinson: On the scene at his New York movie shoot (sans vampires)

Robert Pattinson: On the scene at his New York movie shoot (sans vampires)

Robert Pattinson's new movie, which is tentatively titled Remember Me, began filming in New York City this afternoon. As an exasperated crew member was overheard complaining, "They might as well call it Paparazzi and 'Tweens, 'cause there's more of us than them!" It was a fair statement considering how the crowd had swelled substantially (a rough estimate of 200) outside of NYU's Silver Center of Arts & Science, after fans had texted and called their friends to get to downtown Manhattan, like, omigod, right now!

The scene in question was of Pattinson (wearing a plaid shirt and donning those now-trademark sunglasses between takes) walking down the street while talking to a friend, smoking a cigarette, and holding a cup of coffee (he's versatile!). During one scene, the actor who plays Pattinson's friend mockingly yelled, "Have a good day, sweetheart!" as he walked away.

Oh, how the hundreds of girls who lined Washington Square Park would have loved to yell that to the Twilight star -- though the couple of "I love you Robert!"s and "I love you Edward!"s that squeaked in will inevitably make for some tough sound editing. Members of the mostly young, female crowd, some of whom had skipped school and arrived at the scene as early as 9 a.m. to watch their beloved Pattinson, said they had been tipped off by onlocationvacations.com. While the crowd mostly kept calm during filming, once the movie broke for lunch, a flood of girls chased Pattinson as he was escorted to his next location. So will this wreak havoc on Remember Me's fliming or will the cast and crew simply have to up the security/location ante?

'The Twilight Saga New Moon' Trailer Analysis



'The Twilight Saga New Moon' Trailer Analysis
Monday, June 01, 2009
Goodbye.jpgI make no apologies about how big of a Twilight fan I am. I'm obsessed. I watched all of the MTV Movie Awards last night just so that I could catch every single shot of Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and the rest of the Twilight crew. I shushed the room every time one of them opened their mouths to speak. I downloaded the New Moon trailer and have watched it over and over again. Because of all this, I've noticed a couple of awesome and a couple not-so-awesome trailer moments I'd like to share with you today.

First, let me say that I think the trailer is amazing. Twilight won all the awards possible last night (almost) but it also won in the exclusive trailer/clip arena. As a Harry Potter fan as well, I was sorely disappointed to find out that the clip was a slightly extended version of one of the trailers. Moreover, the cast didn't even attend the awards to present the "exclusive" footage. Fail. Twilight, on the other hand, rocked my world. From earlier last week when I saw the first 14 seconds to today when I finished my fifteenth view of the trailer, I've been captivated in body and mind. Edward, Bella, Jacob and the rest of the characters in this wonderfully angst-ridden novel have come to life. When I start rereading New Moon (again) tonight, I know my imagination will take off from where this trailer started. I will love New Moon. No doubt.

So, starting from the beginning of the trailer:


Hit: The first 14 seconds are so beautiful. There are no words. The Edward and Bella kiss is great. We all know what she really wanted for her birthday.

Miss:
Kristen Stewart is a bit too coy for Bella when asking for this kiss. Not by a lot, but after watching the trailer over and over again I just know I find something off about it.

Hit:
The love confession is pure gushy romance perfection.

Hit:
Alice's over-enthusiasm. I really wanted Alice and Bella to develop a deep friendship in New Moon and this looks promising.

Miss:
Am I forgetting something? Why does Edward look so upset at the beginning of Bella's party? Did they just have the "I want to be a vampire like you" fight before this? He looks like he's going to kill Esme as she hugs Bella.

Hit:
Rosalie, however, is supposed to be scowling at the party and Nikki Reed appears to be nailing it.

Miss:
After Jasper tries to attack Bella, Rosalie looks concerned. I'm pretty sure that wouldn't happen.

Hit:
The goodbye scene. It's going to break my heart. I know it. Also, we don't get any Kristen Stewart freak outs like at the end of Twilight.

Miss:
Why, oh why couldn't they just give me Edward's Meadow? This scene is taking place in a meadow but it's definitely not Edward's. Edward's meadow would be much prettier.

Hit:
Taylor Lautner's abs. I think a lot of women are reminding themselves that he's only 17 years old.

Slight Miss:
So at first I was really bothered because in the book, the wolf pack saves Bella from Laurent and she doesn't know it's Jacob. It adds to the suspense and the eventual reveal. In the trailer, it looks like Jacob phases in front of Bella to save her from Laurent but it's very clearly two scenes. She's wearing a brown jacket in one and a blue jacket with her backpack on in the other. I don't know how the werewolf reveal will work out, but I hope it's good.

Concern:
The CGI is very "Chronicles of Narnia" and I actually didn't like the CGI for those movies so I'm a bit concerned about the werewolves.


Overall, I squealed so much there's no denying how much I love this trailer. 11.20.09 is burned into my brain. I can't help but sit and wait in anticipation. Check out the slideshow of my analysis to see all the pictures that go along with my comments:
