The legions of readers who are hooked on the romantic struggles of Bella and the vampire Edward will ecstatically devour this third installment of the story begun in Twilight, but it’s unlikely to win over any newcomers. Jake, the werewolf met in New Moon, pursues Bella with renewed vigilance. However, when repercussions from an episode in Twilight place Bella in the mortal danger that series fans have come to expect, Jake and Edward forge an uneasy allianc (more…)

The film’s director David Slade is tirelessly at work finishing up the editing on the third installment in the Twilight saga. But he did take a quick second to send a tweet about the status of the wolves in the next movie. Slade’s tweet said: “Wolf reviews today, looking better and better. The Eclipse story and the way we approached the film calls for a much more realistic approach.” So we’re guessing that Slade is referring to toning down the computer graphics that a lot of people thought were overdone with the wolves in New Moon. The fight scenes are stepped up in Eclipse, so a more realistic point of view, as far as the wolves are concerned, completely makes sense. This is just one small tidbit of into on Eclipse.

And don’t forget to stick with us here at clevvertv for constant updates on Eclipse, which by the way hits theaters in just a few months. I’m Joslyn Davis-thanks for watching.

FORKS, Wash. — A new restaurant set to open next year in Washington state will be called Volterra after a city in the popular Twilight vampire novels, which are set in the town of Forks.

Owners Annette and Tim Root told The Peninsula Daily News it will be a family restaurant, and they have applied for a liquor license.

Forks already has the Twilight Lounge that features concerts and other events for fans.

The Twilight books and movies have brought vampire tourism to the remote former logging town on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula.

The Chamber of Commerce says thousands of visitors come asking questions, such as whether it’s safe to go camping with the vampire problems in the area.

By now, you’ve likely circled November 20 on your calendar in blood-red ink, sent out your Cullen-themed Evites and completed dozens of time trials to see how long it will take to get to the theater. In short, you’ve been training for the highly anticipated release of “New Moon” like it’s the New York Marathon. But have you given any thought as to how you’ll warm up in the hours before the premiere? We have one suggestion for you.

Summit Entertainment, the studio behind the mega-successful franchise, is rereleasing “Twilight” for a single day — November 19 — right before the sequel’s midnight premiere! That means you can get a “Twilight” twofer: catch an early showing of the original Catherine Hardwicke-directed vampire romance and see its follow-up helmed by Chris Weitz shortly after. That’ll make comparing/contrasting the two a little easier, right?

According to the L.A. Times, some theaters may even charge a reduced rate for the “Twilight” tickets. Summit is still in talks with theater operators to see how many screens they can finagle for the first flick, so keep eyeing Fandango for tickets in your area.
