"Twilight" … in animation … with a different ending? Now that’s certainly original. You need to watch this clip that just went live on HowItShouldHaveEnded.com, a site that pokes fun at "questionable" movie endings by morphing them into a whole new storyline. The short starts off at the end of "Twilight" where Bella has been bitten and mangled by evil vampire James. She is dying, or well, uh, "turning into a vampire." All the Cullens are shown coupled around Bella in a reenactment, and it's more of a laughingstock than anything else.
The new ending has Bella turning into a bloodsucker after Edward ponders for a moment being with an old grandma while he still has the appearance of a young 17-year-old. Alice jokes she can see into the future and sees Jacob getting bigger with washboard abs, stealing Bella from Edward. With jokes from all the Cullen members, it’s very comical and makes light of one of the movie franchises that has just about everyone talking this week. (Two words: "New Moon.")
HISHE, which recently partnered with Starz Digital Media, was launched in 2005 after the terrible ending of the "Flight of the Phoenix" remake coerced a few creative minds to redo the finale. Now, millions of streams later, we think it's about time they mocked the beloved vampire franchise!
When Kate Hudson isn’t busy being a mom, making musicals (she'll next be starring in the anticipated musical ensemble, "Nine") or melting hearts in romantic comedies, she is spending her down time canoodling with Yankees all-star Alex Rodriguez. The Hollywood A-Lister has been dating the baseballer for about five months now, and supposedly her lazy mornings are rumored to be spent in the presence of "A-Rod the Centaur" (uh...what?!).
US Weekly recently reported that the infamous baseball player has two portraits of himself as half-man, half-human hanging in his home. When confronted about the bizarre rumors by MTV News' Josh Horowitz, Kate laughed and said she refused to “indulge in those types of stories.” While she admitted that it was the craziest question anyone had ever asked her, Kate made it clear that “as funny as you might think they are,” she would not take any part in confirming or denying silly rumors.
So the question still remains. Does the manly and talented Yankee have pictures of himself as a centaur? The world may never know.
Breaking news! One huge teen pop sensation hates an extraordinarily popular vampire teen film series. Or, translated, Miley Cyrus hates "Twilight."
And she doesn't just kind of hate it. She loathes it.
"I don't believe in it. I don't like vampires. ... I don't like the wolf that pops out of the screen when I'm watching my TV at night. I don't like it. I don't want anything to do with it. I don't like the shirts. I don't like any of it," she told radio station Q92 in a backstage interview after her Cleveland show.
Taylor Swift hasn't been shy about her love for stationary, cards and writing letters. So, knowing her connection with written prose, it doesn't come as a huge surprise that the singing superstar has hooked up with American Greetings.
The singer will create a line of greeting cards, gift wrap, stationery, online custom photo products and online greetings for the company. The line is expected to hit stores in Spring 2010, according to a press release.
“My idea of a great song is a song that says how I feel better than I could. I feel the same way about greeting cards,” Taylor said in the release. “I’ve always been fascinated by feelings and how we express them to each other. Getting to write and design these cards is a wonderful experience.”
FROM SPLASH PAGE:(Written by Rick Marshall) Confession: I haven't been watching AMC's award-winning television series "Mad Men"—despite the insistence of Kevin Smith. While I admit that this needs to be rectified, I have watched the "X-Men" movies, so I can appreciate at least half the brilliance of the mash-up of "Mad Men" and "X-Men" over on MadAtoms.
Created by writer Geoffrey Golden and artist Jordan Monsell, the mash-up imagines the "Mad Men" cast as played by Marvel's favorite mutants. In one example, Wolverine is matched up with Don Draper (as played by Jon Hamm in the series): "Mysterious pasts, been with a lot of girls and will take off whenever they feel like it. They're also the best at what they do. You got a problem with that, bub?"
Salvatore indecision: it's a very serious dilemma that plagues all fans of "The Vampire Diaries." I'm talking, of course, about the difficult task of choosing which Salvatore brother you'd want to date. I'm here to tell you, ladies and gentlemen, that it's not just a fan issue. "Vampire Diaries" star Katerina Graham, who plays Bonnie, suffers the same vacillation in deciding which brother to direct her affection toward. Luckily, she has a simple solution: "You know what, I'd pick both of them," she told Hollywood Crush recently. "Is that slutty? Not simultaneously! For different reasons." Just to be clear: "Not simultaneously," Kat reiterated, then laughed. "This is Hollywood Crush, we have to make it spicy!"
For real though, Kat said she admires both brothers. "Stefan is such a great guy. Though he's a vampire, that life was kind of picked for him. He's kind of stuck in it. Of course, all the ladies love a dangerous man. So Damon for that reason. You always think you can change the bad boys, and you have to learn the hard way that you can't. But that doesn't stop us girls from trying!"
Whether you're a baseball fan or not, it's pretty hard to escape the coverage of this year's World Series featuring the New York Yankees and the Philadelphia Phillies (the "Glee"-shaped hole in my DVR lineup is particularly telling). And now, even one of our favorite "Twilight" stars is playing ball... sorta.
While on a publicity blitz in Japan for the November 20 premiere of "New Moon," Robert Pattinson was spotted wearing his go-to hat, a blue New York Yankees cap. That must mean he's rooting for the Bronx Bombers, right? Right? We have a feeling his "love" for the team probably stemmed from the time he spent in NYC filming his upcoming drama "Remember Me." It was on the set of the Emilie de Ravin-Pierce Brosnan flick that Rob was first seen wearing his now-signature lid. Perhaps Rob's fashion choice has been a good-luck talisman for the Big Apple team seeing that they lead the series 3 to 2.
Attention Vampire fanatics: For those looking to fill the void before "New Moon" opens, the next season of "True Blood" and "The Vampire Diaries" latest episode, check out "Vampire Taxonomy: Identifying and Interacting with the Modern-Day Bloodsucker," by Meredith Woerner. One part witty how-to interaction guide and two parts vampire glossary, this book is a humorous, yet authoritative look at pop culture's current fixation on all things fang-tastic.
"Taxonomy" begins with an overview of vampire origins, and then delves right into the gory detail of five definitive vampire types: Romantic (aka Edward Cullen, Bill Compton — see an illustration after the jump), Villainous (Count Orlok, Dracula), Tragic (Angel, Jasper Cullen), Halfies (Blade). We like the Tragic vamps best, in large part due to an adolescent crush on "Buffy" heartthrob Angel (it wasn't the same after he left!), and also because we are suckers for those tortured souls. Er, tortured soul-less? Ha. Who knew there were so many puns to be had in writing about vampires? Anyway, moving on...
Dakota Fanning somehow finds the time in between being a superstar actress starring in flicks like "New Moon" and the upcoming "Runaways" biopic to be a regular teenager and go to high school. Not only does she go to high school at Hollywood's Campbell Hall Episcopal High School, but she's also is involved in extracurricular activities.
Dakota is a cheerleader for the school's team and this past weekend she was crowned her school's Homecoming Princess (in her uniform none the less) at the football team's (she cheers for the Vikings) big game against Crespi Camelite High School on Friday night, according to Radar.
Just in time for Halloween, Jimmy Fallon was back last night on "Late Night" with a candy corn-obsessed version of "Robert is Bothered," a bit that has increasingly little to do with RPattz or the "Twilight" franchise that has made him a star, but which still makes me chuckle.
Fallon's imitation is less heartthrob and more boozy Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards, less Hollywood cool and more anxiety-ridden Larry David in "Curb Your Enthusiasm." In past episodes, Fallon-as-Pattinson has skewered targets as diverse as Harry Potter and sharks. Last night he decided to metaphorically egg, toilet paper and shaving cream the sugar-coated holiday of Halloween.
