More Goodies from Stephenie Meyer’s Press Junket
Twilight Series Theories has posted more transcript along with the audio of their interview with Stephenie Meyer during her recent press junket for the promotion of “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse”. In this clip, she talks about Jacob and love, the angrier film version of Edward, reshoots of the tent scene, and knitting on the set of the film.
SM: See, and I love Taylor. He’s really sweet. He brought kinda that element that I feel like Jacob needed where you see the nice kid who’s really trying. You know he screws up because he’s a dumb teenage boy, but he’s trying. He wants good things. His motivations are very good all along.
Kallie: I did have to…I had to confess to her [Kassie] after re-reading Eclipse that she [Kassie] was right in some ways about Jacob! I love Jacob, but after reading Eclipse…

What do you think of the news that James Franco will NOT be in “Breaking Dawn”? Disappointed? Glad? I, for one, am actually relieved. Sorry…not a big fan. I am, however, excited at the prospect of Lee Pace playing Garrett!!
So, will anyone be bidding on the lunch date with Peter Facinelli? I wish I had some extra cash to throw down for that. I actually would probably want his wife to join us so that I could pick her brain about her time on 90210 back in the day. I had such a crush on Dylan McKay!
What do you think of the Stephenie Meyer interviews? I love hearing her point of view on differences between the books and the films and am thrilled that she will be a producer for “Breaking Dawn”.
