I know it's insane but I really want one of those Burger King crowns.
(Reminds me of the time when a friend put foil over one of the crowns from BK and made us all call him Burger Czar. Ah, college and hallucinogens. Good times.)

Burger Czar. That's awesome.
(I want a crown, too. I'm not entirely sure what that says about me...)

Ouch. Summit really does like to burn bridges don't they? First they ditch directors in the way of Catherine Hardwicke and now they are ditching actors. It sure sounds like they could have accomodated her so clearly they just wanted rid. I know Bryce hasn't had too many hits but I can't imagine she's any cheaper than Rachelle.
Rachelle is in New Moon and she seems very well liked by the rest of the cast. I'm not sure it's wise to piss off your talent before the promotional tour for NM.

I don't know why she insists on torturing me. Did you look at that link I sent you today? Mwah ha ha! Summit is being rather asshollish about this, aren't they? I think that they like that BDH is a bigger "name".

Damn, that shit is COLD! Seems like the 10-day overlap was just an excuse to get a more famous actress. Good for her for speaking out -- that shouldn't fly.

The "direction" (and I use that word very loosely) of Twilight sucked so I fully support Weitz replacing Hardwicke - but this is just stone cold and makes no sense.
Has any other successful franchise been this much of a clusterfuck, behind-the-scenes wise?
I hate everything about Twilight so this is delicious.

Summit gives their side of the story (link goes to ONTD) I'm not buying it. The timeline doesn't seem right to me. So they were first notified on July 20? And it only took them a week to get Bryce on board AND draw up the contracts? Bullshit. I bet that Summit was planning on replacing her before Comic Con, but didn't say anything because they didn't want to stir up any drama during the event. I feel bad for Rachelle just because she was so clearly excited during the convention.

As much as I like BDH, I think Rachelle was perfect in the part. This is some serious fuckedupery.

Man, I don't even watch this crazy franchise and think that this is seriously messed up.
Yet another reason why I wouldn't support this film or it's sequels. The crazy messed up my chance to see Johnny Depp at Comic Con!
