A fan encounter from Jeanette, via Spunk-Ransom.
“So yeah, we went shopping and I bought lots of little New Moon goodies, god bless London, we have nothing in Liverpool. Literally nothing. We’re losers like that. We end up in this little shop next to Selfridges, it sold utter rubbish, but I like rubbish. I spend a lot of money on rubbish. I talk rubbish *continues with story* So I’m looking at some little goodies and my cousin elbows me in the side whispering ‘Jeanette turn round, quick, look, look, look now’ Me, not having a clue what she’s talking about, is too scared to turn around thinking I’m going to get attacked or something. My cousin has to literally pull me to face the other direction. I turn and guess who is standing less than a few meters away from me? ROBERT PATTINSON.
Oh and Tom Sturridge too! But Rob was there, infront of me. So TomStu was forgotten. :’)
So whilst I was in let’s stare at Rob land my cousin is shouting at me for not listening, she then is like ‘go up to him’ which I thought was the stupidest idea ever and refused. (I was scared okay!) So she just walked over to him (must be nice knowing him! Pfft!) While I’m left standing there like a fool.
She goes over to him and starts speaking to him like they are best friends. (NOT AT ALL JEALOUS) then asks him if he would sign the picture (the one I mentioned before) for me. She points at me whilst I’m standing there catching flies (because I’m that dozy).
Rob then turns to look at me and says ‘Come over here, I don’t bite’ then looks down at the picture in his hand (of Edward) and laughs that lovely tinkling laugh. *sigh*
I walked over slowly (I’m sorry I’m just a big loser, it’s true *smiles*) and stood before him. He asked me if I had a pen to sign the picture and I literally died a little… I didn’t have a pen.
I frantically looked around the shop and picked up a pack of Sharpie pens and tore the pack open. Bahahahaha. The shop man did not look happy at this, but who cares? Rob Pattinson needed a pen. ;D
I gave him the pen, he asked me my name and signed the picture to me. Whilst signing it he says ‘I hope you’re going to pay for this pen, I don’t condone stealing’ to which I replied ‘no’ He laughed handed me the picture, took the pack of pens off me and… wait for it… PAID FOR THE PENS.
Everytime I’ve said I’ve died within this encounter? I take it back, I died when he bought the pens. How many people can say Robert Pattinson paid for a pack of pens for them? (Whilst purchasing ciggies may I add) That’s exactly what he did. He gave me the pens back after he paid. *squeals like a fangirl* He then said it was nice meeting us and started to walk out the shop.
I, after holding in a giant squeal for so long, let it out and squealed and jumped up and down like a strange fangirl (I just couldn’t help myself). What I didn’t realise was that he was still in the shop. He turned around after hearing an earshattering scream and fucking SMIRKED AT ME. He then waved at us and left the shop.”
Film has an interview with Melissa Rosenberg where she discusses writing each of the Twilight movies, Dexter, and writing to meet a rating.
“LL: If an adaptation felt to you like an R rating, but the studio wanted you to bring it in at a PG-13, would that be doable?
MR: Oh yeah. It’s completely doable. You don’t sacrifice story by cutting language. Nor do you sacrifice story by showing less blood or gore, or whatever it is that’s bringing you to an R rating. It doesn’t hurt it. When Dexter was aired on CBS they had to re-cut some of it for network television and all they had to do was cut some language. There’s more blood and gore in an episode of C.S.I., though of course Dexter is more disturbing. Not because of what you see, but because of what’s implied. I don’t think you take away from suspense or character by altering a few things like that.
LL: Having read Breaking Dawn, where things get ratcheted up a notch, do you still go for that PG-13 rating?
MR: Oh yeah, absolutely. That’s your audience. In this series you don’t sacrifice anything. There are some movies that wouldn’t play at PG-13, like The Hangover, but this is just not one of them for me. Again, if you’re capturing character, emotion, and emotional journey, you’re OK.”
Read the full interview here.
One thing that is not covered in the article is an issue that for whatever reason repetitively comes up. Breaking Dawn will not go to screen with a rated R rating because contractually it can’t. It would have to be recut to get a PG-13. Part of the deal for Summit to have the rights to the film is no more than a PG-13. You can still have blood and guts (ER’s final season anyone), and steamy romance (Remember Me and the Notebook) without broaching the R-rating.

Robert Pattinson Fans Cookbook Project
We are pleased to announce the Robert Pattinson Fans Cookbook project. Robnation.org, is joining forces with Spunk-Ransom.com, Twilightish.com, and Robpattinson.com to create a Rob-themed cookbook where the proceeds will go to help the people of Haiti and the preservation of nature.
The two charities we are supporting with the proceeds are both charities that Rob has supported/supports, YeleHaiti and the World Wildlife Fund. Rob participated in the Hope For Haiti Now telethon which donated some of its proceeds to YeliHaiti, and was recently seen on a video telling a fan the charity he supports the World Wildlife Fund. We will be donating 100% of the profits from the cookbook in the name of our websites, on behalf of Robert Pattinson, on a monthly basis once the book has been completed and published. We will be selling the book on our websites as well as Lulu.com. If you would like to learn more about these amazing charities, I have posted links to their websites below.
We need your help! We are looking for themed recipes that coincide with locations of movies Robert has worked on. As an example, “Little Ashes” was filmed in Madrid so maybe some recipes from Spain. Robert is from London so maybe some recipes from his homeland. “Twilight” was shot in both Canada and Washington so some recipes indigenous to that area. Also recipes can include names such as “Vampire…..” or “Wizard….” Truly the sky is the limit on this one.
We are looking for recipes in the following categories:
1. Appetizers
2. Soups/Salads
3. Main Courses
4. Sides
5. Desserts
If you would like to donate a recipe, please visit our forum by clicking the link below to for instructions/rules/restrictions:
