Grauman's Chinese Theater Ceremony
Friday 11-4-11 update: All videos are now on YouTube. Scroll down to view!
We did it! Strike me down if I ever complain about being too tall. My monkey arms came in handy today!
I arrived just after 4 in the morning and was 94th in line. *phew* The early birds in line slept there as evidence by the sleeping bags and cushions. At 6 am, they moved everyone to the back of Jimmy Kimmel Live (alley) then up to the corner of Hollywood and Orange. They took our names and gave us our numbers. Initially, they said that they would let in 120 people but after seeing the numbers and counting they went will 100. Good thing too because otherwise it would have been really crowded and uncomfortable. At 8:30 am, they started handing out wrist bands. Once you got these you were good to go.
It wasn't much longer that they herded us behind the barricades. The sun started rising then and we weren't looking forward to watching everything with the sun in our eyes. Luckily, the sun went behind a building and I was in glorious shade.
The ceremony started out with Jimmy Kimmel saying hello and introducing Stephenie Meyer. She said hello and thanked the actors blah blah blah. She looked really great though. I loved her dress. It was super cute. Jimmy then introduced Rob, Kristen and Taylor. They said thank you, we're so grateful, blah blah blah.
This was our view for 99% of the hand and foot printing ceremony:
Thankfully, our heroes are super classy and turned around and spent some time signing autographs and taking pictures with the fans (just us 100). Check out the link below for all of the pictures I uploaded.

No amount of screaming would get these security guards to move. It was frustrating to say the least. I took hundreds of pictures and they basically as worthless as this one.

Hand and Foot print ceremony for the Twifecta
It's Thursday night and I'm preparing for tomorrow.
Tomorrow, Rob, Kristen, and Taylor will have their hand and foot impressed into the sidewalk in front of Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood. Ceremony starts ~10am but my friends and I are thinking of getting there at 4am. The line for the forecourt starts at 6am.
Based upon what I'm hearing from the back alley of Jimmy Kimmel Live where Rob is taping his interview, people from around the country and world have flown in and have invaded LA. This week is Breaking Dawn Press Junket Week.
Expect lots of pictures from everyone this week. I'll post what I can but other blogs are a lot faster than I am uploading and sharing their photos, fyi. They're all doing the late night shows and a few morning shows. Tonight, they're screening Breaking Dawn (I think at The Grove) for 700 odd people. Reading twitter and the excitement is depressing because I'm not there or in Rob's dressing room where I should be.
What I am doing and what you can expect a blog post about is the Grauman's event tomorrow, TwiCon on Saturday, and camping out and being at the Breaking Dawn premiere. I'm also going to a midnight show but that goes without saying.
Time to charge my batteries.
Sorry about my lack of updates and posts (especially on Comic Com but if you were there you know, shit goes down). I'm still alive. I update my website: The Lit of Twi and my goal is to record during "Tent City" at the Breaking Dawn premiere and using it as a podcast. We'll see how that goes.

San Diego Comic Con 2011
This will be my master post on this year's wonderful Comic Con. I was there for all four days but I'm only posting relevant "Twilight: Breaking Dawn" stuff.
Here is a quick slide show of some of the best pictures that I took. I also made a few gifs in there.
Yes, I'm still alive, I survived comic con, and will eventually spew all the gory details. I've recently bought a new MacBook and in addition to this blog, I also manage a website, podcast and local Twilight book/fan fiction club (LA County if you're interested).
Here's what you can expect to read about in this post (once everything is uploaded n'stuff):
1. Urban Camping on the grassy area waiting for Hall H.
2. Free Summit swag they handed out to people waiting in line
3. Visit from some of the stars of Breaking Dawn in the morning
4. The Breaking Dawn panal
5. Summit booth in the exhibit hall and what they were giving away
6. Overall reaction and is it worth to go next year.
Stay tuned!
Cheers!

Dramatic Reading a la Elizabeth Reaser
It's happened again folks. The Twilight fan fiction fans over on VH1's Morning Buzz had Elizabeth Reaser in the studio and asked her to do a dramatic reading of a fan fiction (I bet they said, "Well, Michael Sheen did it so...").
It's great. She has great enunciation. It's hard to read a story out loud. I do it for my podcast and I'm constantly tripping over my tongue. Anyway, here it is, your moment of zen.
Sound only:

Breaking Dawn Trailer
I wondered how long the Breaking Dawn Trailer would show up and be downloadable on the internet after it aired on the MTV movies awards that's being shown tonight. The answer: Negative 7 hours (and change).
Was the trailer stolen by some TwiHard hacker who couldn't wait? Looks like Summit did the dirty work for us and leaked it out before it aired. I'm sure MTV was thinking

So my reaction besides chanting "ohmygodohmygod", crying, panting and fanning my face in a movie theater as I'm trying to leave while watching the trailer on my phone..... I'm still recovering. I headed straight home to download and save it for all eternity and then check out the screen captures that people have done. These are some of my favorites:
Not from the trailer but I'd thought I'd start off with Breaking Dawn's tag line: Forever is only the beginning. That's so romantic. And I don't mean that in a condecending way. It really is a beautiful statement and makes me thinking of what I could possible to do Rob Edward for Forever.
I cannot tell you how thrilled and tickled I am that they're using his full name. They even have Masen in there. ( I thought it was Mason =P potaytoe potahtoe) My inner (and outer) nerd and fan girl is jumping up and down. It speaks to his past and it's like Edward Sr. and Elizabeth are there with him :')

The wedding right [Right] looks like an oversized version of her index finger moonstone ring, the wedding band [Left] is perfect. I love it.
I want to sit on his face.
Oh my! What this man does to me through a picture!
I cannot get tired of this trailer. Imagine what the actual movie is going to me like?! Seriously, I cannot fucking wait for Comic Con in July. I hope and pray that there is a Breaking Dawn panel and that they'll be sharing some footage. Oh My Gawd, I'm shivering in anticipation just thinking about it.
