Week of Geek: SDCC 2011 Coverage - San Diego Comic Con

SDCC 2011: Twilight Breaking Dawn, part 1 panel: Robert Pattinson

Most people that don’t attend Comic-Con in San Diego probably won’t know this, but when any film in the Twilight franchise has a presence at the Con, the fans come out in droves. And not only do they show up, they show up days in advance and camp out on the line to get into Hall H, the 6,500-seater where most movie studios bring their latest offerings.

This year, Summit Entertainment is promoting The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1, so of course, a campsite was erected and eager fans awaited their chance to see the film’s stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner, as well as exclusive footage from the upcoming film.

Those devoted fans were rewarded with said exclusive footage, which you can read a description of here below (we also have tons of pics of the stars from the panel). The footage showed Bella and Edward arriving to their honeymoon destination, so we got to see a shirtless Edward and a disrobing Bella, and some other stuff. There was also a scene that wasn’t in the books of Jacob confronting his former tribe members after aligning with the Cullen vampire clan.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1

Images from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 have been popping up slowly but surely, showing us just a tease of what’s to come in this first part of the final installment of the vampire saga — a holiday, a honeymoon, a certain wedding night.

Now, Summit Entertainment has released 11 new images from Breaking Dawn Part 1.

Check them out here below.

There’s no blood and gore or sex just yet in these stills, but I’m guessing if you know what happens in the Breaking Dawn book, then you’ll be able to ascertain what’s happening in this scenes. There’s definitely what appears to be danger and urgency, as well as a little romance, and possibly even a shot from the wedding.

Spoiler Talk: Water for Elephants

Water for Elephants

Just to get it out of the way early, Robert Pattinson does a decent enough job as the lead in the adaptation of the Sara Gruen bestseller Water for Elephants and provides some measure of hope that he may have a viable future once the Twilight series ends. Granted, the only non “vampire” related role I’ve seen Pattinson in without the words “Harry Potter” in the title was last year’s horrendous Remember Me, so seeing the WFE trailers with him in the lead alongside two Oscar winners led me to think he’d be the talent Black Hole in this trio. Again, he’s not, and there are times when his work is better than the film he’s in.

Just goes to show what you can do when you’re not playing a mopey little bitch in an inexplicably popular teeny serial.

Time for some SPOILER TALK! Below are SPOILERS for Water for Elephants. Free free to add your thoughts in the Comments section.

Movie Review: Water for Elephants

Water for Elephants movie posterWater for Elephants
Directed by Francis Lawrence
Starring: Christoph Waltz, Robert Pattinson, Reese Witherspoon, Paul Schneider, Hal Holbrook
Release Date: April 22, 2011

Ask somebody of yesteryear about a circus (because rarely do people attend circuses nowadays) and you’re inclined to get a favorable answer and probably be subjected to many stories recollecting their happiness such an event gave to them. This perspective of the ever-popular big top productions of the early 20th century, promising incomprehensible acts of wonder and merriment, usually comes from members of the audience sitting in awe at the wide-eyed spectacle that unfolds before them. But little are they aware of the events that unravel behind the scenes, such as a ringmaster’s wife being wooed by the circus’ veterinarian. Spectators of circuses are disconnected from all that occurs when elephants, lions, acrobats and horses aren’t dazzling them with their tricks and poetic beauty. But like what David Lynch once taught us in Mulholland Dr.: all is an illusion.

In contemporary times, an old man (played pitch perfectly by Hal Holbrook) hobbling with a cane has escaped a nursing home. He finds himself in pouring rain outside of a circus. Suddenly he comes to a halt and begins to admire the place, maybe looking for lost memories that have passed him by. We learn that he was part the Benzini Brothers circus back in 1931. But maybe that was an illusion, being it was such a long time ago. The owner of the circus (Paul Schneider) who finds this old man is soon given a history lesson regarding the 1931 Benzini circus. Water for Elephants then follows the old man’s story, a guaranteed tear-inducing technique reminiscent of Titanic and The Notebook.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn

It’s safe to say that the two Breaking Dawn movies are the most anticipated installments of the Twilight film franchise. Fans of the books know exactly what happens between the human Bella and her vampire love Edward in Stephenie Meyer’s final book, and thanks to all the internet buzz on it, everyone else in the world knows it too.

Spoilers ahead for Breaking Dawn (as if this information is avoidable):

Ok, we know in Breaking Dawn that Bella and Edward get hitched and that they actually consummate the marriage, even though in the Twilight universe, vampire-human sex is quite dangerous to the human. There’s a romantic wedding night for the couple that ends in some kind of feather fiasco. And, Edward manages to impregnate his wife, but having a half-vamp baby inside her is yet another physical danger to Bella.
