"Twilight" gets a new trailer and takes over the "MTV Movie Awards"

If you missed the MTV Movie Awards and movie trailer debuts last night, let me sum it up for you: ZOMG! Vampires! Actually, that was just the awards show. The first trailer for The Twilight Saga: New Moon is more like ZOMG! Vampires! + Werewolf! Here, see for yourself.

 

Yowzah!

To recap: Instead of the hanky panky she so hoped for, Bella gets attacked by Jasper for her birthday. Edward decides that to protect her he should leave her alone in the middle of the woods with a red-eyed beast. His epic failure is redeemed when Jacob transforms mid-air into a werewolf, and hurtles over Bella to save her life.

Kristen Stewart's brooding face count: 3. Robert Pattinson's brooding face count: 4. Grand total: 7 broods in 90 seconds. And you thought New Moon couldn't out-emo the original.

Stewart and Pattinson swept the MTV Movie Awards last night too, taking home bronze buckets of popcorn for Best Fight, Best Male Breakthrough Performance, Best Kiss, Best Female Performance and Best Movie.

Whoops, look at that. We'd better up last night's Brooding Count to 9, which of course pushes us up the Despondency Scale to Code Yellow. Man, it is hard out there for sexually-repressed mythical creatures and the women who love them. Maybe Bella and Edward should just take a chance, make some love, have a baby. I mean, really, what's the worst that could happen?

Oh, right. Never mind.

I can't wait for the full-length New Moon trailer, which is sure to feature creepy Dakota Fanning as Jane. Or, as Michael Sheen Tweeted: a weirdly angelic, unsettling, evil red riding hood. That should amp up the Despondency Scale to at least Orange!

What's your verdict on the New Moon teaser trailer?

    Ehhhhh, they had Jake

    Ehhhhh, they had Jake transform in front of her so early?

    There's a big unwanted book change from the get go.

    And how white makeup face did Edward look in the woods! Come on guys. Make it happen!

    The trailer looks pretty

    The trailer looks pretty cool.  Though I have to admit, there could be a Twilight brooding facial expression drinking game.  What the heck though, I'm a huge Twilight fan.  And Kristen Stewart is h-o-t. I give New Moon a thumbs up so far.  Edi Gathegi was also awesomely creepy as Laurent in the meadow scene.

    oh good lord

    this is just ridiculous. the book are addicting, i admit it. and kristen stewart is beyond hot. but the movie was just... laughable. im just hoping the new director will do a better job with this book; hardwicke laid on the cheese just a liiiittle too thick last time. also, enough with the brooding! seriously, we get it.

    I could write down on essay

    I could write down on essay here citing the various reasons why I don't like Twilight, but since I don't like trolling I am just going to spare you.

    I can't wait for the movie

    I can't wait for the movie to be honest. Looks good. And I also think Alice Cullen is breath-takingly beautiful :) 

    Also, a lot of people told me I look like a Cullen in my profile picture... I'm not complaining! 

    Go here for my view on all things lesbian: http://allthingslesbeau.blogspot.com

    If..

    If Alice Cullen were real, she'd be my perfect woman. So I totally agree :D

    I hated this book.

    All the "oh no I'm all alone with a hole in my chest why did Edward leave me" was driving me crazy and made me wait a long time between reading the 2nd and 3d book. I hope the movie won't be as bad.

    But I'll be watching it as soon as I can, anyway!

    KStew's acceptance speech

    was really awkward. Seriously, she was either stoned or really really nervous. Jitters + rambling (which is understandable) + dropping the damn popcorn? That being said, awkwardness = so cute.
    Angel's picture

    I saw that too.

    I'm gonna go with stoned.  I love her to death (especially in Adventureland) but she was out of it on the awards show.

    Open to all of life's possibilities...

    TabulaRasa's picture

    Well, I can't...

    ...wait for New Moon to come out. I have this "little" crush on Kristen Stewart, so I pretty much love everything she's in.

    I went into hardcore girly

    I went into hardcore girly squealing mode when I saw the trailer just now, haha! Amazing! This looks way better than the first movie, except...I'm not happy with the way the werewolf looks like. Come on! If that approached me, I would wanna pet it! Robert Pattinson is one good looking guy, not gonna lie.
    Joyous's picture

    SO Excited.

    I read the whole series in 2 weeks. I can't wait for this movie although the nest will be based on my fav in the series
    Lucas's picture

    What.

    That trailer was really monotone, almost like there was no acting going on at all. No offense to the lovely Kristen Stewart.
    Jeannette's picture

    I'm torn.

    Considering Kristen Stewart beat the lovely Kate Winslett for best actress last night, I'd like to boycott New Moon (Seriously, did anyone else see The Reader?  She blew me away.  Kristen Stewart may be hot, but she hasn't been good in anything since Speak).  However, it will be very hard for me to resist the hilariously HORRENDOUS acting and awkwardness that is Bella/Edward.  We shall see.  I'll have to think about this more.

    I wasn't a fan of the first

    I wasn't a fan of the first movie, due to not-so-great acting and overall bad production quality. And I'm not a fan of the books in general because I can't stand Edward. But that being said, the second film looks so much better than the first film if the trailer is anything to go by. I love Kristen, so it'll definately be worth seeing.
    Alcy's picture

    I agree...

    Twilight is utter dribble, the movie was incredibly hard to watch...even with the hotness of Kristen Stewart - all that repressed longing is just depressing.

    Of course The Reader was depressing too, but in a different way. Kate Winslet definitely deserved her Oscar, she was incredible in the rawness of her portrayal. It's hardly surprising that she was beaten in the MTV awards though, it's MTV - what do you expect! New teaser predictable, unlike millions of fans, I won't be hanging out to see it whenever it comes out.

    The hair of Jasper and the

    The hair of Jasper and the entire new look of the Cullens is epic fail. X( The Cullens were just right before. Why change?!?!

    Kristen Stewart looks, if possible, even hotter, but that's practically the only good thing I can think of.

    Without Catherine Hardwicke directing, i think the fail-y aspects of Twilight and just going to multiply and overpower New Moon. But, I hope to be proven wrong.

    The first movie was

    The first movie was horrible. I really liked the books but the first movie i thought was really comical. I think kristen stewart and robert pattinson are hot but the movie is another story.

    i think new moon is going to be a lot better though. the acting looks a lot better. The trailer seemed mixed up but then again the movie isn't cmplete yet so the second trailer will probably be a lot better. 

    in the trailer we can already tell the are trimming the book down and changing things a lot because bella was in the meadow when laurent came, not outside of jacobs house. also she didn't know jacob was a wolf at that time .

    Captain Jax Havok's picture

    awkwardness, thy name is kristen stewart :P

    loved the dropping of the popcorn ^_^ didn't like the trailer that much cuz i must admit New Moon was the worst book in the whole series o.o but i might cave and watch it anyway cuz i want my kristen stewart fix :D lol
    Mags's picture

    /o.o/

    I haven't finished New Moon yet, but I will before November. Did anyone else notice the little eyebrow twitch Stewart did as she said, "Kiss me," to Edward? I think I've got a little crush on her... Although I'm sure I'll like her more in Runaways, what with her being Joan Jett and all... And now I've got Cherry Bomb stuck in my head.

    haha

    Haha it's okay. I have a crush on her too. I liked her in Speak a lot and the Messengers.

    I think my favorite part was

    I think my favorite part was when Kristin went up to accept the award for Best Kiss and it looks like she's trying to sex Sandra Bullock, lol ...anyone else see that?
    StrawberryPanic's picture

    I don't get it.

    I can't figure out what it is. The books were very badly written, the movies horribly suck.. and yet I can't stop watching. I love to make fun of the twilight saga.. and yet I am addicted. It's so very very bad. And kristin is so very very yummy. I loved the movie awards last night solely because she was around so much. That near kiss was the best thing. Did anyone else notice how she wrapped her leg around Sandra Bullock?!? *sigh*

     By the way- this article is awesome! I laughed quite a bit. :)

    I think it's a bit like witnessing a car crash. You really shouldn't but you just can't bring yourself to look away.

    kstew = epic fail

    don't care at all for twilight, but kstew dropping the popcorn was one of the highlights of the night at the horrendous mtv movie awards along with the eminem/bruno thing
    MeltingCharcoals's picture

    im only gonna watch this

    because of kstew and the effects. i like how jake transformed to a werewolf, ow bear, uhmm which one again? isn't jake supposed to be gigantic? he looks the same guy to me like last time

    I love the book

    I love the book series...and even though the movie isn't as good as the book...I can't wait until November 20 to watch it...and I hope that New Moon will be better than the book like the cast is sayin...and I have to say that KStewart is lookin really good these days...

    oh kristen..

    you are so talented.  and hot.  glad for the fame twilight has granted you, but i really do hope (and i'm sure to no avail) that you just walk away from this whole edward cullen business.  the books are utterly, depressingly misogynistic.

    "you're an uptown, falling down, west end girl, trying to see yourself, running in a, number one, shoot em up, race to the edge of the world, to the edge of the world, knocking down, waking up, you're a breaking girl."

    Lord! them winning SO many

    Lord! them winning SO many awards kinda made me nauseous......in the butt (sorry that was inappropriate). but what do u expect from The Year of Twilight? Plus, watching them two makes me want to punch both of them in the tits (maybe literally). They look so arrogant and snooty wen their names were called. kinda like "yea, look at me, even if i gave all of yall the middle finger, u'll still think im hot" (which was the impression i got, maybe its just me). But then again, maybe they're just REALLY AWKWARD 20-something-year olds.

     

    But on another hand, the New Moon Trailer looks REAL hot. even tho i haven't even watched the first one yet. haha. Im real up-to-date.

    I <3 this years MTV movie Awards

    I thought Slumdog Millionare should have gotten Best Movie and Best Breakout Female performance. How in the hell did Ashley fucking Tisdale beatout Freida Pinto?!?!? At any rate did anyone else catch Jim Carey's shoutout for the overturning of Prop. 8?

    I literally jumped and

    I literally jumped and shouted "YES" at the mid-air transformation scene!

    This is so gonna be epic

    but...

    Did Edward really have to push Bella like that when Jasper attacked?!! he could've just gotten in front of her seeing as he did an easy job of throwing Jasper like a puny human. It looked like he did more damage than before and Bella kinda looked pissed at that.

    Such a disfanctional relationship...

    Good thing I am a Alice/Bella shipper... KUKUKU

    AmandaBear's picture

    Alice/Bella ftw!

    Alice/Bella is sooooo much hotter than Edward/Bella. *__*  For realz.  Well, Alice does act like a total lesbian in the books anyway. xD I always did think that she was a little "too" friendly to Bella. ;D  When I was reading New Moon, the only time my heart really fluttered was when Alice sorta cuddled Bella to comfort her towards the end of the book.  So adorable. ^.^  Although now I'm sorta attracted to a Rosalie/Bella pairing, what with KStew and Nikki Reed being so buddy-buddy with each other. XD  Plus, I have a thing for love/hate relationships. lolz

    can't wait

    for New Moon, it's gonna be great. More Alice action too. :D
    bigbluehifi's picture

    LOL

    i just love them bc they seem like they hate their lives right now. they're probably thinking "oh crap, look what we got ourselves into..."  

    Cinematic_Sunrise's picture

    alice/bella ftw! seconded^^

    more kristen stewart is ALWAYS a good thing, and even more ashley greene? *swoon* big time.. those two are just so. damn. hott. yumm^-^

    the less i have to see rob's stupid constipated facial expressions, the better. i still dont know what they were thinking when they cast him.. its painful to watch, really...

    ..If your stomach feels weak, then my work here is done..
