Is FOREVER Really Our Goodbye? @TwoPeas1Pod #TeamKristen #Twilight

In my pathetic attempt to catch up on BD2 promo, I happened upon an interview yesterday where Rob was asked, ‘What happens now? What happens after forever?’  Rob looked at the guy like he had three heads, chuckled in his self -deprecating way and said, ‘I have no idea.’ Funny pause. Smirk. Head bob.  ‘Yeah, I really have no idea.’  

Yeah... tried to find the link to the actual interview - but have you SEEN the list of promo clips? That's like a needle in a haystack. Just enjoy this instead... You get the idea...

Rob, I’m right there with you. 

What happens now? 

The bright lights are all turned out. The wristbands have been cutoff… Well ok, I’m the loser who hasn’t cut hers off. That’s a proverbial umbilical cord I’m not ready to sever quite yet. Baby steps… The erotic, couture dresses and barely there pantsuit have been given back to their designers. Summit is preparing to count their millions. Rob and Kristen are off in England shopping for groceries, preparing for their life as ninjas and probably toasting that our ending, is finally their fresh start.

Rob is also probably beginning an epic experiment to see just how long he can go without shaving… I fear Mountain Man is coming…

                                    Good Mountain Man Rob.

                           Baaaaaad Mountain Man Rob. *cringe* 

So where does that all leave us? 

Is forever really our goodbye? 

I managed to sit through BD2 in the Nokia last Monday night and didn’t shed too many tears. But I’ve seen it two times since returning home and managed to cry a little bit harder on each successive viewing. In part, because each time felt a little closer to an end. 

And, each time, while the credits rolled through the entire Saga cast (goddamn you Bill Condon!) I couldn’t help but scroll, in my mind, through the cast of characters I’ve met during this whole journey. 

I’m not talking vampires and werewolves. I’m talking about you ladies. And a few special gentlemen. 

It’s like seeing a list of avi’s and handles flash by. Along with ridiculous conversations about sex hair and eye sex and sex toys. Ok yes. We’ve talked a lot of sex. But it’s also conversations about our kids troubles at school, a sick relative, a lost job, a new house, a cranky baby… and endless piles of fanfic. 

The flashback scene we all knew Bill would try to kill us with, reminds us Kristen isn’t the only girl in the room who’s grown up and changed a lot these last handful of years. We’ve all changed and grown together. In ways big and small. 

                                   Wee bitty Rob and Kristen...

                                               All grown up...

I had a shirt made to wear in Fan Camp with a back that read: ‘…because at some point this stopped being just a little story about some vampires and started being the story of us.’ 

I tried to explain that notion as I walked through camp with a group one night that included a ‘friend of a friend’ who was there to see what all the fuss was about. I think the sentiment of that shirt was scratching the surface with him as he walked among us, hearing all our stories, seeing us embrace one another, viewing all our tents covered in pictures that commemorated years of friendship. 

“This is about way more than a cute vampire,’ I told him. “We all came to this thing for different reasons, but what we found here are little pieces of ourselves we wouldn’t have found anywhere else.” 

So if it holds true this is bigger than vampires… do things change now that the cold ones have all moved on to new feeding grounds? 

I certainly don’t hope for Summit to conjure up some watered down spinoff version of this whole phenom. As Kristen has said in so many interviews, it feels complete. Edward and Bella deserve that moment in the meadow. They deserve for us to leave them there. Happy. And making out like wild animals.

I’m not looking for Twilight: The Next Generation. 

But the mere thought of that has me looking over my shoulder at other, older fandoms, especially the ones that have stood the test of time.

Can we be like them?

Do we want to be?

We already endure the pop culture ridicule that seems to hold hands with the word ‘Twihard’. (After I help Rob find the creator of ‘RPatz’ I’m gunning for the creator of this label, as the term makes my skin crawl whenever I hear it.) But how does our culture’s view of super fans morph even further when the object of the fan affection is something from ‘the past’? Do we feel differently today about people who dress up like Captain Kirk on weekends than people did back when the USS Enterprise made it’s virgin voyage? (You know I’m sitting here trying to make my fingers do that split thing now right? I never got Star Trek...)

Once the DVD wrappers are torn away, and there’s truly nothing ‘new’ to be had, does the fandom hit its own twilight and everything just slowly fades to black? 

I know lots of people out there are already suggesting Forever is not an ending. We will have red carpets to stalk for future projects. We have a thriving fanfiction community that will keep these characters alive (and our sex lives happy). Can we survive on that? 

We are essentially like Steph’s vampires now. We’ve been living on fresh human blood for years. Feasting to the point of gluttony on The Bubble and filming leaks and movie promo tours. Now it seems we’re moving in with the Cullens. Becoming ‘vegetarians.’ We’ll have to learn to like our eyes golden and a life of never being ‘fully satisfied.’

Will we like life under Carlisle’s rules?

I don’t know.

I hope so.

I returned from LA to a family that I love more than anything else. To a husband who has humored me but is really ready to have his wife back. I’m really ready to get more than 5 hours sleep a night and jump back into my life too. 

But I guess the answer to the question I’ve asked over and over on this page is I don’t want to go back to being the woman I was before I met all of you. She was really boring. My life the last few years has been more vibrant. I want my life to include you all in some way. Maybe smaller than before. But in some way. 

The front of that shirt I wore in camp said this: “One woman’s dream, became a few great books, that turned into a handful of movies, that created a sisterhood, that changed our lives forever.”

Me and Steph...and my shirt. Which CafePress cockblocked AFTER they printed & shipped it! Suckers!

I don’t know what tomorrow holds. But I am so very thankful for this ride. Thankful I jumped on when I did. Thankful my wonderful family has put up with it for as long as they have. Thankful for the changes it’s made in my everyday life and the way I view the world and the people in it so much more openly now. 

When I am old and gray and sitting in a rocking chair somewhere waiting for my own life’s credits to roll by – so many of you will be included. I will look back and fondly remember endless nights spent on twitter trading Rob Porn, snot sobbing support groups reading EP, trying to stay out of jail on epic nights of Best Kisses and filming in the streets of Brazil, using the term Laters way before it was cool, huddling in dark LA parking lots at 3am, bawling the first time meeting Stephenie, taking chair dancing lessons with the DC girls in my family room, hearing catcalls and sniffles fill the Nokia when the words ‘The Twilight Saga’ finally faded off the screen… 

Clearly my flashback scene will be longer than Bella’s… 

Bill Condon’s brilliance flipped pages so we could see those words Stephenie chose for her own ending .  ‘…We continued blissfully into this small but perfect piece of our forever.’ 

I wish there was a way to flip forward to see what lies ahead for us…

Forever.

Whatever that means…

PrettySparklies Freaks the Fuck Out! NO SPOILERS! #BreakingDawn #Twilight

So, I'm sincerely sorry for and ashamed of the weeks I've gone without posting.  It's not for lack of wanting to post, but my life is just kinda shit right now and I still don't have my computer back. *grumbles*

But anyway...HOLY BREAKING DAWN PART TWO, BATMAN!!  I have so much to say about the movie, but even though I've seen it 3 times already, I still have friends who haven't seen it so I'm not going to be spoiling it anytime soon.  However, I will say that the 3rd time I saw the movie, it was with four people who hadn't seen the movie (and they are not as crazy as me and truly had no clue what they were in for as they are not on twitter or up with anything promo-wise) so, I really wanted to see them freak the fuck out and expected even more freakage since they are so out of the loop!  But, the effin' theater was practically empty aside from us, which meant it was completely silent through the entire thing.  What a TOTAL FUCKIN' LET DOWN!

I wanted to see my friends react and hear the audience react with them as I had the previous two times, but without the audience gasping and cheering, etc it really was a buzz kill for me and my friends.  :(  It makes me super sad that when it was over, they weren't nearly as excited about this final amazing and epic movie as they wanted to be!!  They felt it had been really hyped up to more than it really was and wanted to know what in the hell I was going so crazy about!?!!!  I was like "you were freaking the fuck out, right?" and they were like "yeah..." but they just were sitting in shock and awe as we all were but at the same time confused about the hype/let down.

But... I think I figured it out! I think you just can't watch it for the first time without a mostly full audience, so you have more of chance of people being vocal and drawing you in.  Needless to say, I've been begging my friends to go back during a busy time this weekend, so they can experience it again, but with both the pleasure of watching everyone else freak the fuck out and feeling the audience participation...it's just such a better fan experience.  So, if you're reading this and haven't seen it, go during a BUSY TIME so you can REALLY feel...that feeling of...FOREVER!

DO IT!

Stepping off that soapbox and onto another.... I've been putting together a pretty hilarious post (IMHO) about the Twi-Puppets trip to BD in LA pt 2 with @TwoPeas1pod, but before I post that one, I feel compelled to express my thoughts on the following Bill Condon interview.  I was just composing my puppet post and catching up on Promo stuffs and came across this interview, bringing me to a screeching halt.  At around 3:02 he says he doesn't think there will be any commentary from any of the actors. (SPOILER ALERT: you may want to skip to that part if you haven't seen the movie, some spoilery things are said in here)   WHAT THE FUCK, SUMMIT?!?!  Seriously, THIS is what brings all the girls to the yard and you're going to dick us over again with no cast commentary!?!  I'm FREAKING THE FUCK OUT!  Someone calm me down! Please, someone find a way to get through to Summit/Lionsgate that we live for Rob, Kristen, Taylor commentary. MAKE IT FUCKIN' HAPPEN!

PrettySparklies <3 Sorry again for the lack of posting.  :(

And So It Begins...The Beginning of The END... #Twilight #BreakingDawn

Wow!  Just as soon as I got my computer back I found that it was still broken and have to send it back.  That plus #Sandy have just made blogging just peachy.

So, I've mailed #Knitward, #Yarnella, and #KnitBlocker to @TwoPeas1Pod so she can bring them across the country for BD Pt 2 in LA!  I must say, I haven't really been able to get pepped up about the finale with everything that has gone on, but mailing my little crocheted babies to TP1P sure has gotten be excited! I can't wait to hear of their adventures and hopefully some celeb pix. ;)

Another thing that got me pepped was FINALLY getting to watch the MTV First with the Twifecta and @JoshuaHorowitz.  @RobstenDreams has a whole page of videos from the junket but here's the link just for the mtv first vids.  The MTV First interview made me want to dance Gangnam Style (I've given folks a link that have no fucking clue what Gangnam Style is, just like me). I found another good manip of this at @RKDreaming and have to share, cuz it's Man-Nip Monday after all.

I so wish this was a gif!

So much is going to happen this week and I'll be without a computer again. GAR!  Here are some of the shows you need to setup your DVR for, but please check @RobstenDreams sidebar for a constantly updated list of appearances!

November 5- Kristen will be on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno for Breaking Dawn: Part 2.

November 5 - Rob will be on Jimmy Kimmel Show for Breaking Dawn: Part 2.

November 7 - Rob will be on The Today Show for Breaking Dawn: Part 2.

Worst Blogger EVER, But I'm BACK! @thats_normal @BlogWaffles @FickleBitches

Woo Hoo! I got ol' Bessy back today and they didn't have to format 'er! Woot!

Sadly, I was more worried about saving my blog stuff than my last two years of un-backed up family pictures. #ThatsNormal

All these weeks without my computer, I've hardly posted to this total piece of shite quality Twilight Fansite and even more-so have fallen behind in all the awful awesome gossip and ACTUAL Twi-news!  Of course, in my first hour back on my bebe, I of course, took my first gander at Letters to Twilight (because they are the reason for this blog's existence, duh) and what did I find???  We got an effin' shoutout in a post!  Seriously!  The moment I've longed for all this time and I almost missed it completely on a Taylor Tuesday no less!!!  GAH! I'm so glad those gals still have kept their snark, wit and spectacular shiny-ness when it comes to Twilight Goodness, as so many sites have gone down for the count!  Not to turn this into a love letter for LTT, but hey, I love 'em and they're just awesome and it's my site so I'll keep goin'.  Have y'all seen their new adventure over at That's Normal?  No? Well, you should check it out cuz everything they talk about is TOTALLY NORMAL! [don't click that link - you really don't want to :P] - I tried to warn you! Strangely enough, and seriously coincidental, I created a blog with a few of my friends (around the same time) so we can also continue on with our blather after AiT becomes irrelevant. *sniffs* It's called FickleLittleBitches and I posted a payback earworm for Bekah cuz that shiz is hard to get outta your head, Dayum!  You're welcome for not one, but TWO earworms! :D

To further spread the love, Twitarded is our 2nd favorite site which is run by some awesome twat-waffles who also created a new blog to carry on the hilariousness, which is called BlogWaffles!  They are so awesome and IMHO they put our collective sites to shame with their band of dedicated snarkilicious bloggers who post almost DAILY (and yes, I'm totally jealous)! So, moving on, I can't believe Breaking Dawn Pt 2 is just days away and I'm not going to LA! Gah!  I still can't believe no one has offered to stuff me in their suitcase. I've been pretty furious with the lack of promotion for the movie this far, but at least they've started to announce some tv appearances that are coming up for Rob, Kristen, Taylor and Stephanie Meyer.  However, it is just plain effin' stupid that there haven't been any joint interviews scheduled. It's the final movie and the best interviews are ones with the 3 main stars together.  WTF, Summit/Lionsgate?!? Now that I have my computer I hope to be a more regular poster again.... You know, I'm definitely well overdue for a rant about "the scandal," but I'll save that for another post. Happy Weekend! PrettySparklies <3

It then makes me daydream that Stephanie Meyer has written a Jake & Nessie book and we'll be seeing a new book and movie coming out in the near future...how exciting would that be!?!? ...and I'm not even Team Jacob! Happy Monday! PrettySparklies <3 Please forgive my lack of regular posts. It's going to be at least another week before I get my laptop back from the shop. :(

Now, doesn't that just put a smile on your face! :D  Go visit her tumblr for more, she is THE AWESOME!

It also makes me think of The Ugly Dance again (courtesy of TwiFans)!  <---DO IT! :D

Breaking Dawn Pt 2 Soundtrack List Released Leaving us With a Sad @Twilight #BreakingDawn #TragedyMindMeltAwfulness

It's the moment I've been waiting for ALL YEAR!

The Breaking Dawn Pt 2 Soundtrack track list has been released!!

HUZZAH!

That's one step closer to getting the album, WOOT!  But, I must say that the lack of some Rob Pattinson on the soundtrack seriously saddens me.  I just was so sure that they'd bookend the soundtracks and give him a song...I mean US a song!!

I really hope this soundtrack sticks with their pretty awesome sound/selections in years past (of course they all haven't been perfect, but overall they've been pretty damn excellent).

Here is the track list, thanks to Yahoo:

1. Where I Come From — Passion Pit 2. Bittersweet — Ellie Goulding 3. The Forgotten — Green Day 4. Fire In The Water — Feist 5. Everything And Nothing — The Boom Circuits 6. The Antidote — St. Vincent 7. Speak Up — POP ETC 8. Heart of Stone — Iko 9. Cover Your Tracks — A Boy and His Kite 10. Ghosts — James Vincent McMorrow 11. All I've Ever Needed — Paul McDonald & Nikki Reed 12. New For You — Reeve Carney 13. A Thousand Years (Part Two) - Christina Perri 14. Plus Que Ma Prope Vie — Carter Burwell

Please forgive me, but this h00r truly is not looking forward to hearing what Paul and Nikki sound like, and if I'm being honest, WHAT IF I LIKE IT?! #TragedyMindMeltAwfulness  That very though just makes me the illest of ills.  I've never heard any of his songs and planned to never hear any of them....oh well. :( (yes, this is me being a music snob, but it's my blog so....yeah...)

Anyway....the soundtrack goes on sale November 13th and you can even pre-order the cd on Amazon now, so go do it! But, this brings me to the rest of my sadness....and a bit of rage...WTF Lionsgate/Summit?!?!  You're releasing it the week of the premiere!?! JFC OMFG GFYS and EBD!!!  

Didn't we get all of the other soundtracks at least 1 month before hand or longer???  I recall being able to listen to and then memorize all the songs weeks before the premiere, don't you?! Queue the Angry Mob!

What is up with the lack of love for the fans?! IT'S THE FINAL FUCKING MOVIE! GARRR!

*sigh* Throw a h00r a bone, bastards! PrettySparklies <3 What say you? Am I totally off the mark or are we comrades in arms?

Dear Taylor,

Do you get into the spirit of Halloween?  Will you be sporting one or all of these pumpkin stencils on your porch for the little Trick-or-Treaters?  

Well, either way, at least your pumpkin stencil actually looks like Jacob and doesn't look like Frankenstein or not even look like your character AT ALL!  

HUZZAH!

WTF do you think of Edwardstein? Is it just me? Happy Taylor Tuesday! PrettySparklies <3

If you make one of the Taylor pumpkins our friends Team Taylor Lautner would like you to submit pix to them.  Of course we'd always love to get things submitted to us, but it's been two years and no one has ever submitted things I've even begged for, so I won't bother starting to ask now. :P

Man-Nip Mon: Emmett & Rosalie in Love @Twilight #Twilight

I don't believe I've ever posted or even come across an Emmett & Rosalie Manip.  Even though this one is from years ago, I cannot pass it up, to get us in the mood for the countdown to Breaking Dawn Pt 2.

Manip by @bexi21 (I tried hard to find her on twitter)

Doesn't this man-nip conjure up some of those old feelings of reading the Twilight books and about Rose and Emmett tearing apart their house? Unf!  I wonder if there will be any references to this in BD Pt 2. :)

Happy Monday, my lovelies!

Down With the Tabs & Papz! Peace for Rob & Kristen @Fiorels90 @RKremain @veulent_savoir @Peace4Stew @SaneStewBerts

I couldn't bring myself to post a Friday Funny today even though I kept looking. Not saying they aren't out there, but I think I'd much rather this post be up for the weekend. I know we're a fun site and we laugh and poke fun at ourselves as fans and at the movies & actors, but it truly is in fun with no mean spirit whatsoever.  However, there are so many people out there that are just full of hate, spewing it in articles, comments, tweets, etc.  And, on top of that we are all voyeurs, and we can't help  but click on those links to PIX without thinking because we want to know.  Well, try to only look at fan pictures or pictures from events or professional pictures.  We need to stop giving the paparazzi their paychecks and STOP THE HATE! I watched this video from @Fiorels, as I first found it on RobstenDreams.  I have since seen it all over and every time I tear up.  I think it's good for everyone to watch, whether you're a fan or not.

Try not to add to the craziness, even though it's so hard not to tweet your speculations in attempt to defend or figure things out, but it just adds to the madness. Let's just rise up as a fandom and #StayPositive,as my good friends the #MojoMamas say, and keep your thoughts out of the public eye, if they can be picked up by a trolling tab or pap then don't post. I support these new sites that have sprouted up and the Paparazzi Reform Initiative: RKremain (I link you to the "purpose" page vs the main page, so you can see the sole reason for the site and the awesome words she has spoken) PEACE4STEW AND PEACE4ROB (I link you to this particular post as they are coining a new term for the peacemakers #Sanestewberts. Read it and see are you one? Can you try to be one? Justice for Kristen (speaks for itself) --PS Edit: I just found and wanted to add this video from @Libenet to show what the Papz do to them.

So, regardless of what side of the fence you're on in the speculations that are afoot, I hope we can all agree that this has gotten out of hand and it's really none of our damn business! Have a great weekend, and while you're at it, tell those Tabs & Papz to EBD (Eat a back of Dicks)! PrettySparklies <3 If you have a supportive site that you would like me to add to the list you can either email me or add it to the comments.

The LTT Ladies Finally Released their Top Secret Interview with Bill Condon!! @Letter2Twilight #Twilight

OMFG! It's been so long that I totally FORGOT that the Letters to Twilight ladies had a secret rendezvous in LA with Bill Condon back in June! Well, yesterday and today they finally got to release the deets from their joint interview with other selected fansites!

Here are the links. You must read them, I command you!  For serious y'all.  They interview Bill and his peoples and Jack was there asking questions too. There was much laughter and Bill answering questions!! Part 1  and Part 2 I hope you looked! Sooo awesome!

High Five to Letters to Twilight for being picked & being awesome!

PrettySparklies <3 I know several other fansites went and were involved in the interview (as you know from clicking those links), but the LTT ladies are the reason for our existence, so they get our props!
