Dakota's reps confirmed to EW she's been offered the role and will meet with Chris Weitz next week. I do think this indicates the Italy portion of the story will be racheted up and, like kali, that makes me very happy. Couple that with Weitz making the friendship comment about Jacob and, yeah, good times.

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. PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just finished the first book after my sister recommended it to me. Never had heard of it before, but it is such a guilty pleasure! I really want to see the movie, but who knows if or when it will be released here. Actually, this is one time that I kind of want to download, but I don't think I would be able to hear a word of dialogue over the squeeing fangirls.

There are a lot of streaming videos out there and I haven't heard anyone squealing or anything. (I'm not going to download that mess, I'm sure it'd be the ONE TIME I get caught.)

I actually like the idea of Dakota Fanning because I think she can pull it off and I don't think she is that big of a name.

I think I am warming to the idea of Dakota. It's only a small role so I doubt they'd have to break the bank to hire her.
I just would love to see the look on TL face when he finally gets the script for New Moon. He'll be frantically flipping through looking for his scenes.
I have heard rumors that to save costs - and due to the fact that Rob & the other vampires are aging while they wait that they want to shoot NM and Eclipse back to back. They could probably crank out the Eclipse script while NM is being filmed.

Italy bored me in the book too. But not as much as I'm thinking the Bella/Jacob scenes will bore me in the movie. I realize I'm going in with pre-conceived notions, but I can't even picture how all those scenes of TL and KS flirting/handholding will work. My brain just rejects the image. In contrast, Vamps Fanning and Ben Barnes seem much more watchable.

There would be a serious stampede for the restrooms and concession stands if too much of the middle section of the book stands as is for the movie. There's only so many scenes of Bella watching Jacob fix motorcycles that I can take. Well, actually I can't take any, but that's neither here nor there.
The Forks aftermath upon returning from Italy shouldn't be short-changed, either, as they have the big "vote" at the Cullens and at the end of NM is when Edward first proposes to Bella.

I am really wanting to see how they do the whole "Edward takes his shirt off and prepares to dazzle the crowd quite literally" because the whole scene is just so chock full of cheesy ridiculousness. I don't think it is possible to transfer that to the big screen without the LULZ.
