Eighteen Reasons to Love Taylor Lautner

I found this fun picture gallery on People.com about 18 reasons to love Taylor Lautner from Twilight and New Moon.  I thought I would share a few of the reasons here on Bookroom Reviews with you, because I know there are alot of Twilight fans that read my blog!   For the rest of the reasons and pictures, here is the link for your enjoyment!  Which reason do you pick?

REASON 3:  HE FLEXES HIS MUSCLES  At 16, Lautner was told he was too young and too thin to fill the role of a much-larger Jacob in the Twilight sequel. But he stayed focused, packed on more than 30 lbs. of muscle and kept his starring shot in New Moon. “Now I’m a big bad wolf!” he said.

REASON 12:  HE LOOKS GOOD IN A WIG  On a lesser hunk, Jacob’s wig could look downright goofy. “[The wig] would get caught in my mouth, and I would be spitting it out in this scene where I’m coming close to kissing Bella,” Lautner admitted. “It was annoying.”

 REASON 13  HE LOOKS COOL ON A MOTORCYCLE   When Kristen Stewart’s  Bella crashes her bike in New Moon, it’s Lautner who revs his engine to come to her rescue. “Yes, I rode the dirt bike for a total of about five seconds in the film,” he said, “but, for those five seconds, I had to look as cool as possible.”

REASON 4: HE’S A LEADING MAN    In New Moon, Robert Pattinson ’s Edward leaves Kristen Stewart ’s Bella heartbroken – creating a romantic opening for Lautner’s Jacob. “It definitely says something about him – he puts people at ease,” Stewart says of her costar. No wonder their chemistry smolders onscreen.

REASON 1:  HE LOOKS GOOD WET  And the winner of this wet T-shirt contest is … Taylor Lautner ! The New Moon star – who celebrated his 18th birthday on Feb. 11 – makes a splash as Malibu’s finest during a magazine photo shoot in October

Taylor Swift SNL Firelight Spoof

Taylor Swift and SNL spoofed Twilight last night and it was hilarious!  Her impersonation of Kristen Stewart was perfect.  What did you think?  Funny or Not?  Are you looking forward to New Moon on November 20th?  You can watch the video below.

Twilight Graphic Novel Coming

For those of you who can’t get enough Edward and Bella, EW announced  on their website that Yen Press will be publishing Twilight in graphic-novel form, publication date still to be determined. Though Korean artist Young Kim is creating the art, Stephenie Meyer herself will be reviewing every panel.

The manga-style adaptation of Meyer’s books sounds, from the story’s description, as if it will be a straight words-to-comics of existing stories, but there is no word yet on how many books are currently planned. At least for now, though, everyone asking has their answer.

Nevertheless, this announcement will likely be a hot topic when “Twilight” fans descend on Hall H next Thursday for the “Twilight: New Moon” panel at San Diego Comic-Con. Since that room is going to be packed with a hybrid crowd of “Twilight” and comics fans, you can bet these new books will be on a lot of minds.

What do you think of the artist rendering above?  Overload or will you buy it?

Taylor Lautner Weight Gain Picture and New Moon News

Latest Twilight News:

New Moon star Tayor Lautner looks like he accomplished the task of gaining weight in time to start filming New Moon coming up in March. My question though is more from a “mom” concern.  Is it healthy for a 16 year old boy to do this so quickly?

New Moon official logo released this week. A couple of articles discussing Eclipse Movie release dates (June 30,2010) and summary already! Mtv.com and ew.com Chris Weitz won’t direct.

New Twilight Books Coming Soon.  Catherine Hardwicke Twilight Directors Notebook and The Twilight Saga: Official Guide . Stephenie started a new official website called The Twilight Saga. And of course the Twilight DVD release date is March 21st!

Jackson Rathbone, who plays Jasper has been a popular search on my site, so this if for those fans.

Stephenie Meyer recommends The Girl Who Could Fly by Victoria Forester on her site, her last recommendation was The Hunger Games and I loved it.

Fans of Twilight are so creative and talented, here are a few Fan-made posters of New Moon

The CW is capitalizing on the Twilight popularity. They reportably picked up a pilot based on L.J. Smith’s book series, Vampire Diaries. The first book of the series was originally published in 1993. The books revolve around a young lady who is torn between two vampire brothers, one good and the other evil.The brothers battle for her soul, and the souls of her small town friends and family. Sounds good! Have any of you read it? I’m curious what you thought of it.

Latest Robert Pattinson picture to tide you girls over! He is in L.A. And will present at the Oscars tomorrow night with Kristen Stewart.

Taylor Lautner’s Weight Gain for New Moon (pictures)

I’m sure you’ve heard the news by now that Taylor Lautner, who played Jacob in Twilight will be back to play Jacob in New Moon despite the fact he is physically not a match for the character’s size in the book. Jacob in New Moon grows to age 25 and 6 feet 5 inches.  Taylor is 16 and much shorter. Apparently he says he has bulked up 19 pounds already and plans to put on 10 more before shooting begins.  As far as his height,  the rumor is they will use special effects.  Below are pictures of Taylor from before he put on the weight and the latest picture is him at an event where he told a reporter he had put on the 19 pounds.  What do you think?  Does he look bigger?  Do you think he can pull it off?  By the way, I do think he is an adorable actor.  Also below is the statement from Stephenie Meyer’s website.

Good news about New Moon from director Chris Weitz:

I’m very happy to announce that Taylor Lautner will be playing Jacob Black in New Moon and that he’s doing so with the enthusiastic support of Summit Entertainment, the producers, and Stephenie Meyer.

The characters in Stephenie’s books go through extraordinary changes of circumstance and also appearance; so it is not surprising that there has been speculation about whether the same actor would portray a character who changes in so many surprising ways throughout the series. But it was my first instinct that Taylor was, is, and should be Jacob, and that the books would be best served by the actor who is emotionally right for the part. I think that fans of Twilight the book and the movie will be surprised by the Jacob Black that Taylor will bring to the screen in New Moon; and I’m looking forward to working with him and the rest of the cast in realizing the film.

very best

Chris Weitz

I’d just like to add that I was very much a part of this decision. My first priority was always what was best for New Moon—what was going to give us the best possible movie. I’m truly thrilled that Taylor was the one who proved to the director, to Summit, and to me that he is the best possible Jacob we could have. And I’m very much looking forward to seeing what he’s going to bring to Jacob’s character this year.
