Your fingertips against my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind in my chase
You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick

I never wanna see you unhappy
I thought you want the same for me
Goodbye my almost lover
Goodbye my hopeless dream
I’m trying not to think about you
Can’t you just let me be?
So long my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should’ve known you’d bring me heartbreak
Almost lovers always do

We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me
In the shade
And when you left you kissed my lips
You told me you’d never ever forget these images
No

I’d never wanna see you unhappy
I thought you’d want the same for me
Goodbye my almost lover
Goodbye my hopeless dream
I’m trying not to think about you
Can’t you just let me be?
So long my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should’ve known you’d bring me heartbreak
Almost lovers always do

I cannot go to the ocean
I cannot try the streets at night
I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you’re gonna and I’m haunted
And I bet you are just fine
I’ll make it there
You walk right in and out of my life

Goodbye my almost lover
Goodbye my hopeless dream
I’m trying not to think about you
Can’t you just let me be?
So long my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should’ve known you’d bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do

Since we always try to keep everybody informed about everything going on in movie news, here is another press release from Summit Entertainment:

SUMMIT BEGINS SEARCH FOR NEW MOON DIRECTOR

Los Angeles, CA, December 7, 2008 — Summit Entertainment and director Catherine Hardwicke jointly announced today that the filmmaker will not be directing the next installment in the newly minted TWILIGHT film franchise. Summit’s targeted end of 2009 or early 2010 release of the film, NEW MOON, does not work with Ms. Hardwicke’s required prep time to bring her vision of the film to the big screen. Thus as has been done before with many successful film franchises, the studio will employ a new director for NEW MOON.

“I am sorry that due to timing I will not have the opportunity to direct NEW MOON,” said Hardwicke. “Directing TWILIGHT has been one of the great experiences of my life, and I am grateful to the fans for their passionate support of the film. I wish everyone at Summit the best with the sequel—it is a great story.”

“Catherine did an incredible job in helping us to launch the TWILIGHT franchise and we thank her for all of her efforts and we very much hope to work with her on future Summit projects,” said Erik Feig, Summit’s President of Production. “We as a studio have a mandate to bring the next installment in the franchise to the big screen in a timely fashion so that fans can get more of Edward, Bella and all of the characters that Stephenie Meyer has created. We are able to pursue an aggressive time frame as we have the luxury of only adapting the novels into screenplays as opposed to having to create a storyline from scratch.”

In case you haven’t read about it on fansites or movie blogs, here is the news that we have all been waiting for

SUMMIT ENTERTAINMENT ANNOUNCES TWILIGHT SEQUEL – NEW MOON

Los Angeles, CA November 22, 2008 — Summit Entertainment announced today that the studio is officially moving forward with the production of NEW MOON, the second installment of its filmed franchise TWILIGHT, the action-packed, modern day vampire love story. The movie will be based on the second novel in author Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series titled, New Moon. The first movie in the TWILIGHT franchise, the self-titled TWILIGHT, arrived in theaters this weekend to sold-out showings.

Stephenie Meyer stated, “I don’t think any other author has had a more positive experience with the makers of her movie adaptation than I have had with Summit Entertainment. I’m thrilled to have the chance to work with them again on NEW MOON.”

Starring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, TWILIGHT tells the story of 17-year-old Bella Swan who moves to the small town of Forks, Washington to live with her father, and becomes drawn to Edward Cullen, a pale, mysterious classmate who seems determined to push her away. But neither can deny the attraction that pulls them together…even when Edward confides that he and his family are vampires. Their unorthodox romance puts her in physical danger when Edward’s nemesis comes to town and sets his sights on Bella.

Hari Sabtu kemarin gw dapet kesempatan untuk nonton Premiere Twilight di PS jam 9 pagi. Seneng banget krn dapet tiket ini dari orang yang gw ga pernah duga, yaitu Vero, my long lost friend. Thanks ya ver! :)

Ok, about the movie itself (based on my opinion..) menurut gw ga begitu fantastis. Banyak banget cerita-cerita yang ada dibuku ga diangkat ke film, plus cerita yang ga ada di buku malah tiba2 ada di film (which is not on my expectation, dan sedikit membingungkan).

Selain itu, ada perubahan-perubahan gambaran cerita yang ada di buku dengan film. Contohnya pada saat Bella berhubungan dengan nyokapnya, di buku disebutin klo Bella mengabari lewat email, tp di film malah jadi sering telponan. Kemudian di buku, Bella memiliki PC tapi di film dia punya laptop; trus di cerita seperti bagaimana Edward dan Bella bertemu di Port Angeles ga sesuai dengan yang ada di buku, especially ketika Edward menolong Bella, bener-bener beda banget. Gambaran rumah Bella dan Edward juga kurang pas antara di buku dan film.. Oya satu lg yang penting, di buku kan dibahas klo Bella mengalami 2x malam Promnite kan (yang pertama dia menolak untuk dateng), tp malah cuma satu kali aja di film, hiks :’(

But it’s alright, the bottom line is Edward dan Bella were together. Sayangnya Chemistry mereka berdua ga begitu kuat, bahkan terkesan dingin dan aneh.. :(

Kemudian untuk karakter para pemainnya, menurut gw pribadi ada yang COCOK banget (Edward, Alice, Jesper, Emmet, Carlisle, Jacob, Billie, Victoria, Jessica, Mike) , tapi ada juga yang ‘wow, ni orang ga ada cocoknya sama sekali’ untuk karakter yang dia bawa (Bella, Rosalie, Esme, Angela, Eric, Bella’s Mom, Laurent *yg harusnya bule malah negro*, James). Pas ditonton jadinya ga nyambung dan ga pas.. :(

Terus ada yg lucu.. sang penulis, Mrs. Stephenie Meyer jadi cameo di Twilight selama kurang lebih 5 detik, di scene pas Bella baru ngobrol dengan Mike Newton dan dia mau masuk ke sebuah resto untuk makan bareng Charlie, ayahnya.. Clue: Mrs. Stephenie yang lg duduk di meja bar dan bermain dengan laptop Apple-nya.. hahaha.. that was pretty shocking for me.. :p

Yah untuk first start it’s OK, mudah2an di sekuelnya (yang katanya sih mulai shooting Maret 2009, info dari http://acting411.blogspot.com/2008/11/new-moon-auditions.html) bisa lebih OKE lg.. karena di buku kedua uda semakin dalem tuh chemistry Edward dan Bella, plus so many fantasy (seperti perubahan Jacob jadi Werewolf dan pertemuan dengan Keluarga Besar Vampire yaitu Volturi di Italy yg bikin merinding gila!).

Good job for Hardwicke for now and ahead! :)

Can’t wait for the sequel, yeay!

Bagi yang belom nonton, happy watching! Akan tayang di 21 Cineplex tgl 5 Desember nanti, kmrn uda mulai midnightnya di 21 Cinepelex (just for info).

Oya, soundtracknya OKE banget. Penempatan lagu2 di filmnya sangat pas dan oke..especially lagu MUSE – SUPERMASSIVE BLACKHOLE di pasang pas Keluarga Cullen’s lagi main Baseball :)

I have read some of Twilight Saga, and darn, i fall in love with the story. There are 4 books in the Saga:

1. Twilight

2. New Moon

3. Eclipse

4. Breaking Dawn

There should be the 5th book called Midnight Sun (on Edward’s perspective), but it will not end in a publishing company. Knowing the fact that the story has been released to the mass, since it wasn’t the writer fault. The writer felt dissapointed, she wanted the story to be all perfect (and kept it as a secret to the fans until is being released). But the GOOD NEWS is, she allowed fans to download the story draft on her official page (love you for doing that Stephenie Meyer). In the end, all we know is Bella and Edward are meant for each other, no matter what. *feels gloomy ehh?*

Right now I am reading Eclipse..can’t wait for Breaking Dawn. And ohhh I have so many favorite quotes!

My life was like a moonless night, very dark, but there were star– points of light and reason. and then you shot across my sky like a meteor.

Ciao,

Life was like a moonless night
Shrouded in the stars
Beauty can be such a fright
But now you’re in my arms

You are my life now
Can’t you see
I’d cross oceans
I’d swim seas
To be with you
That’s enough for me

Your face is like a poison
Intoxicating me
How can we live forever
When our love can never be

You are my life now
Can’t you see
I’d cross oceans
I’d swim seas
To be with you
That’s enough for me
