I'll actually give SMeyer some credit in that I do think a lot of the Alice-related stuff in the book was kind of funny. Alice and Edward playing chess seriously HAS to make it into one of the films.
And just reading that is reminding me of how much I hated NM/Eclipse and their bullshit justifications for why Bella just HAS to die before she hits the age of 20. "I have to become a vampire to protect my family! At which point I'll never see them again and leave them defenseless anyway."

I challenge you to write and publish something better, Dwan. DO IT!
angel, she actually didn't do the "OMG, MY HEART/LUNGS/STOMACH IS GOING TO FALL OUT OF MY CHEST!!11" at all. I think that's the 400 pages Rosenberg cut out.
I mean, if you guys wanna see this, you could just message me. It's a super early draft, so I don't think they give a shit. I haven't uploaded it and don't have the link anymore, but I can email it.

Ah, thanks for the scoop, bitca! Also, it seems the script got leaked to ONTD in the last few minutes. The Twihards are already pissed. I still fondly remember the fun that was had last summer when Breaking Dawn leaked.

Ooh, what are the Twihards saying? Are they mad because their super spechal favorite scene was cut?
I like how they got around Edward not being in like, half the book, by making his "image" appear to Bella. Good Gravy.

Apparently leaking an early draft of the script is "ruining the movie."

Apparently leaking an early draft of the script is "ruining the movie." How forward-thinking of them to have an excuse ready when the reviews come in.

How is it ruining the movie. They've read the book so they know how it ends. If the movie is any good it won't matter if the script leaked or not.

That's what I told my friend. I was like, "Um. How is this different than reading an early draft of any other book -> movie adaptation?" I mean, damn, when you watch a movie about Jesus, you're not going to think, "OH GOD, I HOPE HE DOESN'T DIE AT THE END!" (Note: I am in no way comparing Jesus to Twilight, but you get my drift.

Spoiler warning please! One of my friends who lives out in Surrey had Twilight-fans hanging out around her backyard the other night. They were freaking her out because they kept trying to get into their neighbour's backyard where some unrelated filming was taking place. I guess the fans had gotten the wrong movie set and were frantically looking for Edward and Jacob.
