Twilight Saga : Eclipse Scoop from Peter Facinelli

Peter Facinelli spilled some details about Twilight Saga: Eclipse recently.  Facinelli gave Entertainment Tonight the scoop on Dr. Carlisle Cullen in the upcoming Eclipse movie.

 We are going to see Dr. Carlisle Cullen in a new light when Eclipse rolls around. You get to see a side of Carlisle you haven’t seen before. There are some great battle sequences.

 The fan base has been so phenomenal. When you go to an event, people have flown in from other countries just to take a picture with you. That is a loyal fan base that you can’t even imagine having. I am thankful for all of them. That is why I try to give back in connecting with them on Twitter.

Peter Facinelli dished with Hollywood Life about the sex scenes in Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn and the fine line the producers have to walk to with the story.

 I have a 12-year-old daughter [Luca Bella, whose mom is Jennie Garth]. She’s a fan and I’d want her not to feel left out or awkward. Hopefully it’s a PG-13 type of situation. I’m sure the producers and directors know what they want—and especially what they are doing—but I’m sure they don’t want to alienate fans.

Pattinson does not like Edward and Bella's relationship

Robert Pattinson said he doesn’t really like Edward & Bella’s relationship. Twilight,New Moon,and Eclipse movie star, Robert Pattinson recently chatted with GMTV during the “Twilight Saga: New Moon” promotional tour,and he revealed quite a few things,which include not really agreeing with Edward and Bella’s relationship.

Robert Pattinson said that he really enjoyed filming “New Moon” because everyone was so relaxed,and Chris Weitz, the director was great and very calm. He talked about how amazing it is that they’ve already filmed two sequels within a year of the first “Twilight” movie coming out.

He said he didn’t really quite agree with Bella and Edward’s relationship because it’s the type that sort of alienates everyone else around them . They’re so caught up in themselves,that the friendships around them sort of drop off. He said he did quite a bit of his own stunts in “New Moon,” but not as many in “Twilight” because he got injured on the very first day.

He also revealed that he would never want to be a vampire in real life. However, the running fast ability is appealing to him. He also said he doesn’t like putting on that pale white make-up everyday. He talked about how his family feels about his career. He was also in a band. He wasn’t a fan of school or homework.

He talked about all the media attention. He said, it’s great to go back to England because no one even bats an eye at him over there. He feels normal again when he’s there. He concluded, by talking a little bit about the Volturi vampire clan and their history. He appeared to get a little confused,though.

“Twilight Saga: New Moon” is in theaters now. “Twilight Saga: Eclipse” hits theaters on June 30,2010.

Special Twilight Saga Surprise

Summit Entertainment's official "Twilight" twitter page has reached a whopping 200,000 followers and have promised them a "Twilight Saga" related surprise. They wrote on via Twitter: "Thanks for getting us over 200K followers! Stay tuned...we are preparing a very special Twilight Saga surprise for you. I'm actually quite curious as to what they're going to do. I mean, what can they do? "New Moon" is already in theaters and the next film in the franchise "Eclipse" doesn't hit theaters until June 30, 2010. Perhaps a new poster for the movie? Maybe a very short teaser? Who knows what the studio has up their sleeve, but you'd better stay tuned to find out and that's coming from the mouths of the folks at Summit themselves.

Twilight Saga Facts

The Twilight Saga: New Moon has been in cinemas for almost a week. So, depending on your feelings towards sparkly vampires and extremely buff werewolves, you will either have seen it three times already (ZOMG RPattz!) or avoided it altogether. Either way, the pandemonium has subsided enough for us to look to the future. It's just seven months until Eclipse, the third installment of Stephenie Meyer's popular book series, hits the big screen. RT caught up with the cast in LA's Four Seasons hotel during their manic New Moon press tour to get the latest on the eagerly anticipated film. We learned that Robert Pattinson hates pranks, that Nikki Reed loves werewolves and that we may just see a fifth film.

Fact #1: It's Darker

The brand new poster for Eclipse hints at a darker tone with its brooding storm clouds. With 30 Days of Night director David Slade at the helm, it's unsurprising. "Every movie is different because we work with a different director on each one, which I love," Taylor Lautner tells RT. "David Slade is perfect for the third film because it's darker. Eclipse was my favorite book."

Ashley Greene, who plays vampire Alice, tells RT that Slade isn't just a prince of darkness. "David is actually hysterical," she laughs, "He has such a dry sense of humor that sometimes you don't know if he's kidding or not. Eclipse will be amazing because he has made it far edgier and more dramatic. It's going to look very cool."

Fact #2: There Will Be Less "Love Story" and More "War"

"Eclipse isn't as intimate as Twilight or New Moon," Robert Pattinson explains to us. "We're at war, so I get to interact with more characters, not just Kristen. You'll also find out more about the other members of the Cullen family. It just feels bigger." But -- fear not, Twihards -- that isn't to say the love story is cast aside altogether. "New Moon set up a love triangle with Bella, Edward and Jacob," says Lautner. "So we explore that further in Eclipse. It's a tough situation for all of them because Bella is torn between two guys, Jacob can't get the girl that he loves and then there's Edward, with all of his issues."

Fact #3: The Werewolves Will Crank Up the Sex Appeal

"We all know the appeal of the vampire family," says Nikki Reed, who plays vampire Rosalie. "But the werewolf boys are on a whole different level. They interact with a youthful, playful, comfortable warmth. It's very sexy."

As for Pattinson, he admits that his personal jealousy about Taylor Lautner's newly-ripped physique actually comes in handy for the role. "In Eclipse, Taylor and I have lots of scenes together where we have to be jealous and petty with each other," he says. "So it helps that I actually do feel inadequate when I see his body, especially because he's younger than me. He fulfills every criteria of what teenage girls want, physically, in a guy. I felt like a had to prove myself against him

Fact #4: There's More Action

"Filming Eclipse actually changed my life," says Nikki Reed of the arduous training regime the cast had to endure. "I have never been so fit -- this is the first time in my life I have actually had a bicep. It's bizarre to compare how we look now to how we all looked in the first movie. The entire cast turned up on set for Eclipse looking super-buff."

New cast member Bryce Dallas Howard tried to play a prank on the crew during one stunt, but she didn't count on Pattinson's awkwardness. "We had a fight scene where Bryce had to grab my hair," he laughs. "So she took a clump of hair from my stunt double's wig and was going to pretend she had pulled it from my head. She told me to scream and storm off set, but it was so embarrassing. She had this huge clump of hair in her hand, and I was like 'oww,' really unconvincingly."

While the rest of the cast were having fun with stunts, spare a thought for poor Taylor Lautner. "Eclipse is a lot more physical for my character," he explains, "but any time I have any kind of action, I'm a wolf, so it's all done with CGI. It's a bummer."

Fact #5: The Ending Will Be Nicely Set Up For a Fourth - And Perhaps Fifth - Film

There are four books in The Twilight Saga: Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. But Ashley Greene gave RT the strongest indication yet that there might be five films. "We have finished filming Eclipse and one would assume that, if New Moon does as well as Twilight, then we'll start filming Breaking Dawn next year," she says.

"The only thing is, Breaking Dawn is a very large book so it would be a really long movie. We're thinking they might decide to split it into two parts, like they did with Harry Potter. Either way, we need to get on with shooting them because, unlike Harry Potter, vampires don't age. So we all need to look the same!"

Twilight Saga: New Moon better than Twilight

Sexier, darker and funnier, "New Moon" rises well above the anemic 2008 film version of Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight."

New director Chris Weitz ("The Golden Compass") injects more humor and visual style than Catherine Hardwicke did in the original, but "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" sags and lags like the first one as it senselessly runs on for more than two hours.

The film especially stumbles when the friendship between that vampire-lovin' Bella (a strong Kristen Stewart) and wolf-boy Jacob (Taylor Lautner) starts to heat up.

With sullen Edward (Robert Pattinson) literally out of most of the picture -- in an attempt to avoid his Bella bloodlust -- the romantic burden falls on the insanely broad shoulders of Lautner to perform pretty boy duties.

Lautner looks spectacular shirtless, and will undoubtedly make many tween hearts flutter. But he might have considered spending more time beefing up that acting muscle rather than perfecting his impeccable six-pack abs.

He and Stewart do have a nice chemistry at the start, but when Jacob reveals he's actually a wolf in tight clothing the script requires the actor to show some range of emotion, and it's no longer pretty to behold. Lautner doesn't have the acting chops of Pattinson.

Weitz and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg ("Twilight" and TV's "Dexter") do their darndest to spruce up the material with clever references to "Romeo and Juliet" and "Little Red Riding Hood."

They even poke fun at the "Twilight" story. WhenJacob exp lains to Bella why he's hanging with his buff wolf buddies, who frolic shirtless together, he emotes: "It's not a lifestyle choice." Cute.

When Bella hops on a plane to chase after Edward in Italy, she's on Virgin Atlantic. Nice.

These touches, along with key supporting performances from Michael Sheen ("Frost/Nixon) as head of a vampire mob and scene-stealer Anna Kendrick as Bella's verbose friend, make "New Moon" shine bright.

Starring: Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, Ashley Greene, Kellan Lutz, Dakota Fanning, Michael Sheen

Director: Chris Weitz

Twilight Saga: More details on New Moon

NOW that television is screening Alan Ball's True Blood, the vampires in Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Saga seem more anaemic than ever.

True Blood's vampires have sex. Twilight's brood about not having it - which for their fans, of course, is an integral part of their appeal.

Meyer's hero, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), is a gentleman vampire. Having been brought up on animal blood, he's sworn off the human kind. He and his mortal girlfriend, Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart), dare to kiss but whenever they do, Edward quivers delicately, preserving the possibility that smooch could suddenly deepen into love bite.

New Moon, the second film in the series, finds Edward and Bella settling into life as high school sweethearts in Forks, Washington, although she's already worrying about future complications. She wakes on her 18th birthday from a dream in which she's turned into her own grandmother, while 108-year-old Edward has remained his perennially youthful undead self. This scenario has become common lately. We've seen variations on the theme of time playing tricks and ageing men and women at differing rates in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Time Traveller's Wife and Dorian Gray. Welcome to the Botox generation's defining nightmare.

In Bella's case, this fear has strengthened her curiosity about what it would be like to join Edward's team and become a vampire. He doesn't think it's a good idea. Noble as ever, he wants only to protect her and we're not far into the story before he and the rest of his family decide that they must leave Forks. For him and Bella, it's the end, he tells her. She will not be going with them. Instead, she will stay behind to subside into a chronic sulk. Admittedly, this means no more than a slight adjustment to Stewart's performance, which is already arranged around her pronounced gift for slouching and mumbling, but the prospect of watching her carry a large chunk of the film without her co-star is far from enticing.

There is help at hand, however, in the shape-shifting form of Bella's friend Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), a son of the local Native American tribe, the Quileute. He has long fancied her and, with Edward out of the way, he sets out to show her what a nice guy he is. And for a while all goes well. Stewart produces a few flickering smiles of appreciation as well as squeezing out one or two sentences of at least six words. Things are looking good - up to the moment when she discovers she's been dating a werewolf.

The film is a lot more ponderous than the first one, which was directed by Catherine Hardwicke ( Lords of Dogtown). Given the extreme lassitude of her two leads, Hardwicke did have some trouble with the story's potential for co-ordinating a little black comedy with its purple passion but her successor, Chris Weitz ( The Golden Compass), hasn't a clue. For long stretches, it seems as if Edward's sister, Alice (Ashley Greene), is the only member of the cast who has been licensed to laugh. And while the high camp elements haven't been eliminated, it's impossible to tell if Weitz can see them.

Jacob and his fellow wolf men, for instance, are pretty funny, with their buffed bodies and fondness for wandering bare-chested through the forest while lustily picking fights with one another, but I suspect that we're meant to take them seriously. The only certainty is that they make a change from Edward, who can't venture into the sunlight for fear of being coated with fairy dust and made to melt away.

The werewolves occasion a few computer-generated brawls as they go hunting a team of bad vampires but it's not until the denouement that we see any real action. This takes place during a brisk trip to Tuscany, where Bella and Alice head off in pursuit of Edward, who has gone to consult the Volturi, an ancient family of vampire aristocrats. Their leader is played by Michael Sheen, who's done a lot of shape-shifting of his own recently, having been cast as Tony Blair in The Queen and David Frost in Frost/Nixon. This time, he's in 18th-century court dress with white facepaint and red contact lenses. He looks like a hung-over pixie who's spent too long at the bottom of the garden.

There is one thing to be said about the way Weitz handles time travel. He can make two hours and 10 minutes seem like a thousand years.

Twilight Saga: What's New Moon About?

Starring Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, Michael Sheen and Dakota Fanning. Directed by Chris Weitz. 130 minutes. At major theatres on Friday. PG

It's fangs for the memories in The Twilight Saga: New Moon, as the love between human teen Bella and her vampire beau Edward becomes even more of the mind than the body.

There's no sophomore slump here, quelling fan fears that a controversial switch of directors from Catherine Hardwicke to Chris Weitz might bite into the emotional continuity of this unorthodox romance.

The stakes are higher and the intensity deeper this time, despite a plot that approaches the ripest of melodrama – and which occasionally provokes unintended laughter, as does the terribly twee soundtrack.

Strong acting across the board and a convincing bond between the two main lovebirds override any objections to the script.

Picking up where franchise starter Twilight ended, and sure to earn as least as much box office gold when screenings begin at selected theatres Thursday (the full rollout is Friday), New Moon's main drama begins at the 18th birthday party for Bella (Kristen Stewart).

A seemingly innocuous accident provokes an unforeseen and potentially fatal response, prompting Edward (Robert Pattinson) to move his vampire kin out of the soggy town of Forks, Wash.

As in movie romances of old, serious gentleman Edward has the best of intentions, nobly choosing to separate from his undead heart's desire rather than facing the grim possibility of her destruction by forces beyond his control.

Just when it seemed that he and Bella might be able to cross the divide between the shadowy vampire realm and the fragile human domain, Edward is forced to confront the limitations not only of their risky love, but of his own weaknesses.

As he grows increasingly confused and depressed, Edward decamps from the northwestern U.S. for Europe, seeking a violent destiny of his own choosing.

The split is the catalyst both for heartbreak and the deepening of desire. An emotionally crushed Bella discovers she is able to connect with Edward on an astral plane whenever her heart rate is peaked by perilous pastimes, but another distraction weakens her focus and her resolve.

Her native American friend Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), briefly seen in Twilight, becomes entangled in both a love triangle and an progressively more volatile supernatural world, in which werewolves rise to do battle with the vampires.

Lautner obviously prepared for his beefed-up role, since he now sports pecs that the Wolfman himself would envy.

New Moon is not all love and hisses. Although tangled romance is more the emphasis this time out – Romeo and Juliet allusions are driven home like a stake through the heart – there are action set pieces designed to thrill genre movie lovers.

They'll likely scare the daylights out of everyone else. The CGI creatures aren't always first-rate, but they get the job done.

Edward's trip to Europe brings him to a postcard-perfect Italy and into the dangerous company of an ancient coven of vampires called the Volturi, led by a suavely evil royal bloodsucker named Aro (Michael Sheen). When Aro discovers what Edward has been up to with the humans, he is not amused.

But the scariest figure may be, no joke, young Dakota Fanning, who is no longer a kid. She's Jane, a ruby-eyed Volturi guard who uses illusions of pain as an instrument of torture.

With the exception of a new fight scene created for the movie, Weitz (The Golden Compass) and screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg remain for the most part very faithful to the story by Twilight creator Stephenie Meyer, whose best-selling novels started this latest vampire craze.

They well serve an evolving and involving love saga that gives us a lot more to chew on than the typical teen romance.

Twilight Saga News : Tim Burton To Direct Breaking Dawn

Jimmy Campbell Bower wants Tim Burton to direct the fourth installment of Twilight Saga : Breaking Dawn. This news article comes from MTV.com

Tim Burton digs supernatural stories: the goth-comic ghost tale of "Beetlejuice," the headless killer from the great beyond in "Sleepy Hollow," the undead love story of "Corpse Bride." In a way, Burton knows vampires too, resurrecting Bela Lugosi — the definitive cinematic Count Dracula — in the Oscar-winning biopic "Ed Wood."

All of this has made "New Moon" vampire Jamie Campbell Bower think that Burton should direct "Breaking Dawn," the expected film adaptation of the final book in Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" series.

"It'd be cool if Burton came and did 'Breaking Dawn,' " Campbell Bower told MTV News of his "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street" director. "I think he'd just change it up. I think he'd screw around with it quite a lot, and aesthetically, I think it'd be incredibly different. I don't know if the fans would like it, but I'd sure like it."

Unlike other blockbuster franchises, all three "Twilight" films have been helmed by different directors. Catherine Hardwicke oversaw the first one, Chris Weitz took over for "New Moon" and — following rumors about Drew Barrymore and Juan Antonio Bayona — David Slade was selected for "Eclipse," which wrapped late last month. Though "Breaking Dawn" has not officially been announced, it's all but certain to move toward production.

"Nothing is confirmed as of yet," said Bower, who plays hot-tempered Volturi vampire Caius. "They've got some things to figure out."

While Bower threw his support behind Burton, another name that has cropped up in discussions about the fourth book — which, it has been rumored, might be split into two movies — is Weitz.

"No official offer has been made," the director said in October about directing "Breaking Dawn." "The fans have been enthusiastic about the ['New Moon'] footage and the trailer, and the studio responds to that by feeling good about me. We'll have to see how people feel about the entire movie, not only the studio but the fans, before the verdict is out whether I direct # 4."

Twilight Saga : Eclipse News Peter Murphy Films His Cameo Appearance

When "30 Days of Night" filmmaker David Slade took the reins of the "Twilight" sequel "Eclipse," his appointment seemed to raise more questions than answers. Would the über-violent filmmaker create the bloodiest film of the franchise? Would he attempt to broaden its appeal beyond women and teenage girls? How much of the creative voice would he wrestle away from Stephenie Meyer and make his own?

Now, many of those details are coming into view via a top-secret cameo Slade has filmed ... with a 1980s new-wave rock icon.

"[When I was young], I was a huge fan of a guy who does a cameo in 'Eclipse,' a guy named Peter Murphy," revealed Billy Burke, the veteran actor who plays Bella's father, Charlie Swan, when he stopped by the MTV studios this week. "He used to be the singer of Bauhaus."

Bauhaus pioneered the "goth rock" music genre from 1978-1983, and although they were never hugely successful commercially, the band made a mark with such memorable songs as "Bela Lugosi's Dead," which the band is seen performing in the opening scenes of the 1983 vampire flick "The Hunger" (starring David Bowie and Catherine Deneueve), a longtime goth touchstone. In the years that followed, Murphy launched a solo career that featured early MTV hit videos like "Cuts You Up" and "All Night Long."

"He came in for a cameo, and I was wildly excited about that," marveled Burke, who has his own musical career on the side from his acting. "I saw his name on the call sheet, and I had to give him a call and ask him to have some dinner with me, because I was a huge fan when I was growing up."

The so-called Godfather of Goth, who used to rise from coffins onstage and drive a hearse, is appropriately enough portraying a vampire. "He plays a vampire in a flashback sequence," explained Burke. "I didn't get to see any of it, but all reports from the director David Slade, and everyone around say he just kicked ass. I'm real excited to see it."

Rather than a Volturi or a Cullen, however, he's playing a predecessor of the warring vampire factions. "[His role] started out as an old Spanish, sort of unrelated vampire, in a flashback sequence," he explained, saying the flashback involves Gil Birmingham's wheelchair-bound Quileute elder. "Billy Black's talking and telling the story of the werewolves, how they evolved, and how they met the vampires and stuff. [Murphy's cameo is] in a sequence that involves that."

Although odds are that most "Twilight" fans aren't rocking out to Bauhaus on a regular basis, the cameo is important because it seems to shed a bit of light on Slade's vision for the third "Twilight" film. Hiring a goth pioneer from the '80s could indicate his eagerness to embrace an older audience and a darker, more violent, possibly more male-friendly tone. It also shows that Slade, who rose to prominence with the twisted indie film "Hard Candy," isn't afraid to veer off Stephenie Meyer's written pages from time to time.

"I wasn't there during the filming of his scenes," Burke sighed, adding that 19-year-old star and punk-loving actress Kristen Stewart also "did appreciate" Murphy being on set. "I was gone that particular day. But we did end up going and hanging out, and had some dinner and drinks; he was so open to talk about everything — the glory days of Bauhaus and his present career. He was just an awesome guy."

Twilight Saga: Fans are "obsessed?"

Robert Pattinson, star of Twilight, has described the hysteria surrounding him as "a little frightening" and said fans are "obsessed".

As the release of the sequel, New Moon, approaches, the 23-year-old actor said his life has changed beyond recognition. He can no longer step outside without being trailed by teenage girls and hordes of paparazzi photographers.

"It's been a little frightening. In England no-one had heard of the series when I went for the audition, so it has been a total, utter surprise. The change to my everyday life is so extreme.

"I tend to stay in the hotel because it's highly publicised where I'm staying all the time. There's always a bunch of people outside. I can't really be in LA now at all. It's not that the fans are threatening, but the paparazzi follow me all night," he said.

"It worries me, because the whole Twilight thing keeps getting bigger and bigger, and now it's so big that even my own ego can't cope with it.

"A certain amount of success you can mentally deal with, but there's a point where you think, 'Jesus Christ, what is this? I'm not that great!'"

The level of interest in the Twilight films, based on the books by Stephenie Meyer, baffles him. He told The Times: "I don't really know why the girls love the movie so much. The whole series has become a bit of a cult. People like being part of the club. They're obsessed."

The actor from Barnes, south-west London, got his breakthrough role as Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter films, but playing vampre Edward Cullen in the Twilight saga has made him an international heart-throb.

He joked: "I have never pushed to do anything. As soon as you start going to the gym every day and try to look like a movie star, you're going down a worrisome track.

"Being an English guy you get a lot more breaks. You're allowed to look a little worse. It's that thing about English teeth."

Pattinson and co-star Kristen Stewart will attend a New Moon fan event in London on Wednesday, before the US premiere next Monday. The film is released in cinemas on November 20.

Twilight Saga : Eclipse Ends Filming

The Twilight cast have reportedly celebrated the end of filming on Eclipse, the third instalment in the vampire franchise.

Stars including Robert Pattinson and Bryce Dallas Howard were among the cast and crew who partied at the Vancouver Aquarium in Stanley Park on Saturday night.

Shooting on the highly-anticipated movie is expected to end this week.

According to E! Online, Pattinson (Edward Cullen) stayed for around 45 minutes, while it is not known if co-star Kristen Stewart (Bella Swan) was present.

Entertainment at the bash, hosted by director David Slade, was provided by actor Jackson Rathbone's (Jasper Hale) band 100 Monkeys.

Kellan Lutz (Emmet Cullen), Ashley Greene (Alice Cullen) and Elizabeth Reaser (Esme Cullen) were among the stars spotted leaving Vancouver last week after wrapping work on their scenes.

Twilight Saga : Eclipse + New Moon Trailer

Eclipse may have already rocked its wrap party, but the goodies from the third installment of the Twilight Saga have only just begun.

Amidst all the fun that's kicking off with New Moon hitting theaters in less than a month, the Eclipse title treatment isn't necessarily the most exciting Twi-thing going down, but it's sure worth the tease.

No, it doesn't feature new images of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart making out or anything, but we totally know there'll be plenty of that next year when the film comes out.
Eclipse gets a much sharper, daggerlike makeover than New Moon had, and sits in blood red shadows. Very ominous. Kind of like Dakota Fanning's scary red eyes.

The Twilight Twitter launched the image earlier than it had promised—it vowed to show us the title when it eclipsed 200,000 followers and it's still nowhere close. But instead, it's promising something else just as tantalizing when it hits that big number, so you might want to hit that "follow" button.

Not enough action to jump start your week? Hold on to your seats, folks...

Twilight Casts are Playing a Twilight Game

"The Twilight Saga" has spawned hundreds of different merchandise that you can find anywhere from Hot Topic to Borders to Nordstrom. When MTV got a chance to sit down with the cast to promote our exclusive clip (debuting tomorrow night on MTV during the Ulalume Festival at 9pm ET/PT!), they asked the cast the pressing question of whether or not they own any of their own merchandise.

"I do not," admitted Jackson Rathbone, "however my bandmate Ben Graupner actually bought a Jasper pillowcase with my face on it and I had to ritualistically burn it because it was scaring me."

Not all of the cast were so negative about the merch. Ashley Greene admitted she owned a few t-shirts and, of course, the Alice Cullen necklace.

Elizabeth Reaser only has her director's chair with her name on it, but said her mother owned some Esme bracelets. "I'm sure I could borrow one from her if I wanted," she said with a laugh.

Though Kellan Lutz didn't appear in this interview series, Ashley gave away his dark, dirty, "Twilight"-merch buying secret.

"While filming 'Eclipse,' Kellan bought the 'Twilight' game and we'd play," Ashley said. "We made Xavier play it — the poor new kid." She said Peter Facinelli also joined in on the fun.

Elizabeth admitted she probably should take a souvineir home from the set of "Eclipse" with her. "Maybe I can get Rob to sign it," she laughed.

As for Nikki Reed, we don't believe for a second her claim, "No, I don't have an Edward doll. I don't." Sounds like a trailer-raid time to us.
