Rob actually mocked the media training (which tons of actors get sent to; a friend of mine who is a publicist talks about how she loves when her clients listen to it ) months ago in Entertainment Weekly (the person tattled on him to his agent saying he was "resisting it"), so not sure why CB was talking about it now.

Probably because she needs a hobby while she's not having sex with her Jonas brother?
I was pretty stoked to see RPattz and co. talked up in the local weekend paper, as an upcoming Vancouver film project. It's in pre-production now, and it said they were filming "back-to-back sequels." I have no idea whether that's accurate or not, as I haven't heard anywhere else that they had the script ready for New Moon, never mind Eclipse.
Dakota would make an awesome Jane.

Oh, very nice. Yeah, New Moon starts filming on March 23rd and at least part of it will be filmed in your city. No definitive word on if Eclipse will be filmed immediately after it--lots of rumors that they're taking a brief break and then starting up again, but Summit hasn't said yet. However, Chris Weitz talked sequel in today's USA Today and, let's just say Jacob's already getting the "let's just be friends" speech (thank god!): LinkBTW, anyone see the recent pics of Sharkboy over at Just Jared? His neck is almost as big as his head. It's rather disconcerting.

One of my concerns with hiring Dakota Fanning (beyond those previously listed) is that she's got to be more expensive than an unknown. Summit doesn't seem to want to spend a penny more than they absolutely have to, and what if her salary decimates the special effects budget? <shudder>

If they're doing back to back filming, the script for Eclipse can be done while they're shooting New Moon, I guess.

I wonder if Dakota is really that expensive. She was in that Bee movie with Jennifer Hudson and Queen Latifah that had a pretty small budget, plus she's in another Summit movie next month, "Push" and if they're that cheap then I doubt she cashed a big check for that one, either. There was an article in yesterday's Variety about how RP and KS are still negotiating their salaries for "Moon," but they're both likely to get low 7-figures and likely a bonus based on box office performance. They won't pay DF more than that for a secondary role.
Maybe she's a fan of the books. Lord knows she's got the creepy disposition of a 46-year-old, world-weary divorcee, but she is still a kid.

And I'm sorry, but I just think TL gets more creepy looking the more he bulks up. It just doesn't look natural on him. He reminds of those pics of that little kid with the muscles, of which I can't find a picture, but I'm sure most people have seen him. It's like he doesn't actually get bigger, he just gets more rippley. And his abs still look painted on to me.

He can bulk up all he wants, but when he fursplodes, TL's still gonna look like Chaka from "Land of the Lost" on steroids.

I've seen some rumors going around that the Dakota Fanning thing is legit and that she really may take the role. And that they're looking at actual name actors for Aro, but that all of the werewolves will be unknowns. This fits in so nicely with my "Have the Italy plot take up half the screentime" hopes! If they pull out all the stops casting for the vamps, and have the wolves be a sort of afterthought, up to and including being too lazy to try and find a better Jacob, I think that will say a lot about what direction they're going with the film.
