Musings of a genius ;-)
Been scouting around the net today (wasting time distracting myself from the writing I’m supposed to be doing) and came across some new trailers for New Moon.
Check out Bella going head to head with the wolves.
This one ends with an Edward/Jake faceoff. My wish, for Jacob to tear Edward a new one; but we all know that will never happen. 
I saw this the other night during the VMA’s. Great trailer, really getting me pumped for the release.
And while I’m a big Jacob fan (although I think it’s more that I’m a Taylor Launter fan-lol) I must admit, the 1:38 mark is my favorite little bit. I should be embarrased and ashamed of myself, but oddly…. I’m not 
And I wonder what happens to make Bella slap one of the wolves (at the 2:00 mark), I don’t remember that part from the book, so it’s probably something new to the screenplay.
Can’t wait.
I know that I am only one of hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of people eagerly awaiting New Moon’s release on November 20th. Now, I consider myself a fan of the series, but not a fanatic–not like I am with Harry Potter. But my friend sent me the follow clip and as a Jacob fan, I must say, my excitement has gone up another notch.
I sent this clip to a friend of my, who’s new to the Twilight Saga. In the space of a little of a week, she’s read through (more like devoured ) all 4 books in the space of little over a week. And oh my goodness, she’s 1,000% Team Edward. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her this passionate over a book before-LOL. We spent the better part of the week chatting about Edward and Jacob, with me having to defend poor Jake quite a bit.
On the flip side, I have another friend who is 1,000% Team Jacob. So I tend my time with her defending Edward when we’re chatting about Twilight-LOL.
I will not get in a big debate here, but my Edward vs. Jacob stand is this: I’m fully for Bella being with Edward. I’m a romantic at heart, and because Bella wanted Edward, I wanted her to have her heart’s desire. No that said, I probably would have picked Jacob- LOL
I mean really, for me, there’s no contest here-LOL
In addition to the nice Jacob clip above, here’s the new trailer for New Moon:
It was a very exciting weekend this past weekend. I watched the race at Belmont Park. Now, I am not a big horse racing fan, but it was quite exciting! I was pulling for Mine That Bird, and when Calvin made that breakaway sprint and pulled into first, after running dead last for much of the first 1/2 mile or so… Man, that was a great race!! Even the baby was pulling for the horses, although she was going for the one in the hot pink & turquoise silks (sorry, can’t remember the horse’s name–see, told you I wasn’t the biggest fan .
Then, I saw two movie trailers that has gotten me way more excited about the 2009 summer movie season that I really needed to be. In my opinion, this has been the best summer movie line up in a LONG time. I honestly can’t even remember a year when this many movies caught my attention, meaning I wanted to see them in the theater and not wait until they were released on dvd.
So far, there’s been:
And we still have the following to look forward to:
And finally, the big ones, the 2 that sparked this entire post & really renewed my already high interest in the paranormal I’m currently brainstorming:
Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince
Now after viewing these two trailers, I dare you to not get at least the tiniest bit amped for them both. Visually, HP looks like it may be the best one yet. And Jacob is a hottie! I can already tell there will be a ton of fan girls jumping on the Team Jacob wagon this November, maybe even a few defecting from Team Edward’s camp.
