Surely, if you’re a die-hard Twilight fan, you’ve seen the first movie by now. Watching the New Moon trailer brings back a slew of emotion… a rush of what-ifs from the anticipation of Twilight.
After I watched the Twilight trailer over and over… and over again, I simply knew I’d be ruined for the movie. Happily, it exceeded my expectations. So much so that the number of times I saw the flick in theaters eludes me.
That said, I had come into the Twilight ball game a bit late, much like James, Laurent and Victoria. I knew what was going on, but hadn’t seen the whole picture. My fascination began only a month before the release of the movie. I had but days to bloat my hype over the flick.
New Moon is a different story- for me, and for everyone involved in the making. A new director, Chris Weitz, has done absolutely nothing but impress me. And kudos to the new budget that allowed for top notch makeup and wardrobe artists. I’ve been absorbed and fascinated from the get-go. Will that desensitize me for New Moon?
Today, the breakup scene leaked from the Rome Film Festival. I watched it. I ruined my virgined eyes, which were waiting patiently to become enraptured on the big screen. I have my tissues ready to go. Yes. I’m that paranoid, that girlie, that wimpy. So did seeing that fragile scene scar my emotions? Guess I’ll have to wait until November to find that one out.
Will this trailer hurt your New Moon expectations or foster them? That, my dear Twi-hards, is the question.

You saw the breakup scene? Where can I find that online????
I think this clip is great. I am especially impressed with how much the facial expressions of the wolves have improved since the jacob featurette a few months ago. Chris Weitz posted a pic on twitter a few weeks ago of him at the sound mixer still trying to get the perfect roar for the wolves. I admire that he is still tweaking with it and trying to make new moon as great as possible.
I also like the addition of bella smacking paul. I think it’s a better way for paul to get mad, rather than jacob protecting bella. But since this is the way that she finds out about the wolves instead of her figuring it out herself, it makes me wonder what happens in the conversation in her room with jacob.
I am eagerly awaiting the release of new moon, and I have been following the filming of eclipse online. And I am 31 years old.
