What we love about James Franco is that, despite pursuing a Ph.D. at Yale, garnering serious Oscar buzz in “127 Hours” and embodying a Hollywood A-list persona, he’s taken time out of his busy schedule to keep up with the trends. That’s right, James has both read and watched the “Twilight” books and films, and when MTV News caught up with him at the Toronto International Film Festival where he was promoting “127 Hours,” he spent more time talking about the phenomenon than the film’s stars typically do.
While he may not be a self-proclaimed Twi-hard after reading the series, James can at least reference Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner on a first name basis (you’d be surprised to find there are celebs out there who can’t), and can clearly understand the deeper metaphors of the stories.
“I wouldn’t say I enjoy them, but I’m fascinated with them,” James said about the books. “I’m interested in the metaphor of the vampire placed in the high school setting and how a relationship with a vampire can stand in for general feelings that people have as teenagers. And the obsession people have with that is also fascinating to me.”
James also took some time analyzing the role of the films in the whole “Twilight” craze. “It’s really hard to extricate those actors from the reading experience of just the phenomenon of ‘Twilight’ now,” he said. He also gave a shout-out to the self-references of “Eclipse” that we loved so much.
“The movies are almost commenting on themselves,” he said. “There will be a scene where the go-to guys, Taylor and Rob, are in the tent, it’s almost like a ‘Brokeback Mountain’ scene, where the two guys are talking in a tent and the girl is asleep, and they’re having, like, this romantic moment almost through her, in a way. One of them says, ‘Well, I’m hotter than you,’ and it’s almost like they’re winking at the fans, like to the Team Jacob or the Team Edwards.”
But he does have one “Twilight” concession to make: He hasn’t finished reading “Breaking Dawn.” He has heard a bit about the birthing scene (“I kind of know what happens, some very strange birth, right?” he asked rhetorically), but at least his reasoning for calling it quits part way through the book matches our own frustrations when we were reading it the first time!
“I read a part of it. I think I got to the sex scene, but it was so brief, I didn’t even know if it was the actual sex scene,” he admitted. “It was kind of a letdown after all that buildup.”

ITALY: April 29th 2011
POLAND: May 6th 2011
Italy Translation:
There was much curiosity, especially among fans of Robert Pattinson, to know when arriving in Italy Water for Elephants, which also starring Oscar-winning actress Reese Witherspoon. Now we say that the release date is on April 29, 2011, just two weeks after landing in the United States. The information was communicated to us directly today by Fox and all the fans should cheer (especially the fans) to Robert Pattinson, so that should not wait too long before seeing this film. Obviously, there are still many months in late April 2011, one can not exclude a rollover, but when we confirm that the film is scheduled for April 29, 2011.
In the film, Pattinson plays a young veterinarian hired a traveling circus, the Gasoline Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth during the era of the Great Depression. Here you will meet Marlena (Witherspoon), a beautiful headstock married to August, the charismatic but irascible animal trainer (Waltz). Water for Elephants is based on a novel by Sara Gruen and will arrive in theaters April 15, 2011, in Italy April 29, 2011.

We’ve been seeing a lot of negativity in the comments towards the fan pics that were taken with Rob on Saturday night. Maybe this post from vampirefreak101 will explain it better. (Negativity in the comments can and will be deleted)
I said it once, I’ll say it again. NO BASHING.

This is kind of an explanation to people who weren’t at marcus foster gig last night so dont actually know what it was like. I’ve read alot of fan comments and b.s on livejournal, twitter, and fan sites about it.
No one upset or hurt or harassed Rob last night that i know of. Yes someone gave him a letter to give to Kristen, and also he spoke to a friend of mine on the phone. Fans had quick chats with him and then walked away. Marcus and Rob aren’t stupid, they know fans are going to recognise him and ask for photos/autographs wherever he goes, he’s famous now, he can’t avoid it. He is happy to meet fans. No one crowded him, it wasnt crazy. Hardly any fans did to be honest, most were happy just to see him or just say hi. Rob went outside to take pics with fans, to not distract from the gig, which was really thoughtful of him.
If u know me or have been following me a while you’ll know I’m a big fan of Marcus, I’ve been to alot of his gigs, and i therefore know him quite well. Yes i was lucky enough to be able to speak to rob last night, after speaking to Marcus for ages. Both of them were fine with this. Rob was happy, relaxed and he’s a really nice guy.(& what i chatted to marcus or rob about is private so dont ask, please). I’m aware that some Rob fans go to Marcus gig just to see Rob, i’m not ever going to judge fans who do that, completely up to them, but yea i do wish people would go for Marcus as well, he’s a really talented musician in my opinion.
I’m trying to get my video making mojo back and it’s kinda hard. So I’ll be posting my videos over the next few days (shameless self promotion but the videos were what originally started this blog ;)). Maybe that will help me somehow đ

Slade started work on Eclipse when the second Twilight movie, New Moon, was finished but before it had been released.
âThis huge, enormous zeitgeist of a thing hadnât quite happened yet,â he says, adding that when the tide of screaming fans did build around the film set, he was too busy to pay much attention,
The filmâs security people would erect fences at exterior locations to keep fans far away, and Slade would be at work in the back of a car for the ride to set each day. âJust getting it done became a thousand questions â swatch cards, costume approvals, storyboards. I would have my head in my notes.â
He remembers seeing fans with flowers standing in the rain as cast and crew left work after an all-night shoot in the woods one night. âIâve got a lot of respect for those kids â God thatâs tenacity. I have a lot of time for the subcultures that bring kids together, regardless of subject matter. Often itâs just a good solid source for people to bond.â
Slade says he saw Eclipse as more of a romance.
âWithin the two pulling forces of romance and terror, I wanted to try andsample both,â he says. âI donât think they really did it [in the previous Twilight movies] so much. I wanted Rob [Pattinson] to be scary. I wanted him to have a visceral quality, where a flash of his eyes kind of made it look like he could kill.â
Slade says he approached Eclipse as a standalone film. âThere are films that came before, and you inherit cast and crew . . . but I really didnât spend any time studying the other movies.â
He says he met more than once with each actor individually before starting rehearsals together, âbackground cast, all the Cullen family, the wolves, all those guys â as many as I possibly could in the time that I had.â
He got them to talk about what they liked and didnât like about the earlier films, and in subsequent meetings he talked with them about what he wanted.
âYou have to take the best of what theyâve done, acknowledge that itâs good, and whatâs not good, take them to a good place to start work,â he says.
Another thing he did was to move video monitors away from the set, so the actors wouldnât worry about what they looked like.
âThey concentrated on the moment, that I felt worked,â he says. âParticularly people who are doing they same role several times . . . they could be [saying] âAm I doing that look again?ââ
Slade talks about scene structure, saying most scenes have the same three-act form as an entire movie, and quotes Plato on the balance between craft and form.
âIâm going to sound like a wanker now for mentioning Plato,â says Slade. âFor Twilight, weâre not talking about the greatest art, but about trying to create something that works, that people respond to.â
