Twilight Composer Teases Duet Between R-Patz & On-Screen Daughter In Breaking Dawn – Part II!
0You want to know what we reckon? Okay, this is what we reckon:
Come November, some of you Twi-Hards are going to be really pleased and some of you Twi-hards are going to be really pissed off. Generally speaking, when a franchise comes to close, this is the case, but we reckon specifically the fandom is going to be divided on the final film in the Twilight Saga because of all the NEW scenes that are going to be added. Let’s get real here — we all know how the book ends and we all know there isn’t that much material to work with that will make for an exciting conclusion. Thus, we have a feeling Stephenie Meyer and Melissa Rosenberg had themselves a pow-wow and came up with some scenes to add to this movie to appease fan’s thirst for more.
Case in point: During an interview with The SAG Harbor Express, Twilight composer Carter Burwell revealed that he had to compose a song for the film specifically to be performed by Robert Pattinson and Mackenzie Foy, the young actress that plays Edward Cullen’s daughter, Renesmee.
As Carter clarifies:
“In the movie I’m working on right now, which is “Breaking Dawn: Part II,” they needed Rob Pattinson and the actress who plays his daughter to play piano onscreen. I had to write this duet before they shot the film so they could really learn the parts. Rob is a musician, so he prides himself on working out the fingering for these correctly.”
Now, right us if we’re incorrect, but we don’t ever remember there being a scene like this in the book. We can remember him playing perhaps — in fact, he’ve might even compose a lullaby for her — but we don’t remember Renesmee ever playing the piano.
And now, can’t you just picture it! Robert snuggled next to that cute small one with his eyes, playing the piano together and looking so adorable you could just BUST?! That’s what they are going for with this flick, people! Just gonna rip your heart out with all the mush and gush to the bitter end!
Works for us!

Report: “Breaking Dawn” Birth Scene Spurs Seizures
0It’s known for causing mass hysteria among its fans, but several reports are faulting “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1″ for causing a different reaction from audience members this time around – seizures.
According to reports, Brandon Gephart, a man from California, had to be rushed to the emergency room after falling ill while watching Bella’s much talked about birth scene.
While viewing the ultra-gory blood-filled sequence – which features sudden bursts on light – Brandon started “convulsing, snorting, trying to breathe.”
“I didn’t really remember what happened after that I reckon I blacked out. According to her [his girlfriend, Kelly Bauman], I was shaking and mumbling different noises,” Gephart told ABC News.
Looking as if the problem could go wide-spread, another Twi-hard, who has questioned to remain unnamed, told press he also experienced similar issues when watching the clip. The film’s production company, Summit Entertainment, has yet to comment on the incidents.

Ashley Greene and Jackson Rathbone Bring Breaking Dawn North
0Ashley Greene and Jackson Rathbone posed on the red carpet together last night in Toronto. The pair went north of the border to show off Breaking Dawn Part 1, which is in theaters now! The Breaking Dawn reviews aren’t exactly glowing, but that shoudln’t stop fans of the series from turning out in force this weekend to see Edward Cullen and Bella Swan finally tying the knot. Jackson was greeted with lots of like from fans yesterday, and tweeted to the well-wishers, “Thanks again for all the like!”
Just a few days ago, Ashley was in NYC for a Cinema Society screening with costar Nikki Reed. Donna Karan sponsored that event, and the designer’s relationship with Ashley is apparently just beginning. Ashley Greene is the face of DKNY Jeans, and an enthusiastic one at that. She said of signing on, “I immediately said yes. I previously had a bit of a relationship with Donna Karan to start with. It’s just a very organic fit. . . . I really really do like her clothes, and I feel like [Donna's] a very empowered woman. It just kind of fits right in with everything that I’m a part of already.”

Robert and Kristen Pose Sexy and Talk “Loving” the Breaking Dawn Birth Scene in EW
0The huge three from Breaking Dawn posed together for their latest sexy EW cover, which is out just in time for the movie’s Friday release. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner are currently in the homestretch promoting Breaking Dawn Part 1, including at yesterday’s UK premiere and during a group interview with Ellen DeGeneres, which airs on tomorrow’s show. The trio talked to EW about the highly anticipated honeymoon sex and Bella’s birth scenes, both of which were apparently more graphic before they were edited down to ensure the film’s PG-13 rating. We also debuted exclusive behind the scenes pictures of pregnant Bella, but nothing compares to seeing it on the huge screen, even if it’s a toned down version. Here are highlights from the magazine:
Robert: “There’s a version where it was really intense”
Kristen: “Cinematically, cut all together, it’s awesome. But we didn’t really do that scene.”
Robert: “And when we did, they kept telling us to stop.”
Kristen: “That’s what I’m really disappointed about – and I’ve talked about it with Bill. It was more sympathetic or something when I played the scene with less energy, and it made it simpler for him to tell the tale. But in the book, Bella is screaming, ‘NOOOOO!’ [Stewart stands and demonstrates.] And I did it like that – crazy and Exorcist-like. I was going for this weird mix of turning into the most feral mother you can imagine and also fighting for my own life. I mean, I was a nutcase. I was an absolute nutcase.”
Taylor: “I do still like the birth scene. I know it’s frustrating that some things aren’t in there.”
Kristen: “Yeah. I still like it too.”
