hollywoodcrush.mtv.com: After spending night and day together for months at a time, the cast and crew of a big-budget movie series can grow very close. Filming each installment in the franchise is a little like a family reunion—at least that’s how “Twilight” star Nikki Reed sees it.

The “Twilight Saga” actress told MTV News that she’s looking forward to filming “Breaking Dawn” because she’ll get to hang out with her costars again.

Peter Facinelli Reacts to Being Named ‘Worst Vampire’

www.etonline.com: Peter Facinelli, who plays Dr. Carlisle Cullen in ‘The Twilight Saga,’ is tweeting about being named the silver screen’s No. 1 “worst vampire” by a Rolling Stone film critic.

“YES! I finally came in Number 1 in something!” the good-natured actor tweeted Wednesday evening, referring to RS writer Peter Travers‘ list of “The Best and Worst Vampires on Film and TV.”

“Facinelli is a solid actor, but playing Carlisle Cullen, the white-haired head of the fang-challenged Cullen vampire family, he looks about as terrifying as ‘Project Runway’ winner Austin Scarlett, whom Carlisle closely resembles,” Travers opined in his list.

“Thank you Mr. Travers,” Facinelli tweeted in response. “As Carlisle is a compassionate humanitarian, and anti-vampire in nature, being the worst vampire was quite the compliment. Although, you had me at “solid actor”. 🙂 I did find the comparison to Austin Scarlett utterly ridiculous though … He has way better cheek bones.”

Nikki seems to be well informed on what her friends and co-star are doing. I can’t wait to see some of their new movies, too. I also can’t wait for them to start filming Breaking Dawn, it’ll be interesting to see how Nessie looks like and especially Bella all vamped up 😀 What did you think of her interviews?

Will you be going to Forks Washington for Stephenie Meyer’s day?

What did you think of Stephenie Meyer’s new fan junket interviews? I have to say that I was like her with the Volturi not looking like I pictures them but it was with Caius. The picks turned out to be really good at the end. I loved Michael as Lucian in Underworld 🙂

Well, should I even ask who the fans will be voting for King of Summer? 😉

What do you think of Carlisle being named Worst Vampire? Could he really be?
