Oh, good grief.

THE TWILIGHT BLOG! I'VE MISSED YOU SO MUCH, EVEN THOUGH I HATE WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT!!!!! *hugs internet screen*

Hi, guys. It's Dani, obviously. ^.^

Considering my views on Twilight (the movie), most of you would think it inconceivable that I would even bother spending half an hour typing up a post about New Moon. *cough* Oh, excuse me. The Twilight Saga: New Moon.

But this, this, THIS!!! is scandalous.

Now, I'm sure that pretty much all of you stay right on top of Twilighters Anonymous (oh my God, did Dani actually go there??? Sadly, yes.), so you all know the news about New Moon and whatever. You probably already know what I'm going to tell you but please, humor me. (:

Okay, so first of all, let's explore the cast. It seems to me like everyone's jumped on the Twilight bandwagon and left the fairgrounds ...

THE CAST OF NEW MOON (only the people that matter to Dani)

Dakota Fanning (Uptown Girls, Winn Dixie) - Dude, come on. You're going to get type-cast ...

Jamie Campbell Bower (Sweeney Todd) - Why??? You can sing. Go to Broadway.

(Seriously, only two??? imdb needs to be updated ...)

And now, the other person joining:

Michael Sheen (Frost/Nixon, The Queen, Underworld) - OH. MY. GOD. NOOOOOOO.

According to Twilighters Anonymous, it has been confirmed by Chris Weitz himself that Michael Sheen will be playing the role of Aro, the leader of the Volturi. Apparently Chris had "aggressively pursued the actor".

Don't give in to peer pressure, mmmkay? Although when the option of a five million pound paycheck is dangled in front of your face, that makes it a little different ...

So, why is Dani enraged about this???

Umm, well, dunno, actually ... It's just annoying because he's a really good actor and he could be in other stuff, not New Moon ... I dunno. *deflates entirely* Well, now there'll be Edward fangirls, and Bella fangirls, and Rosalie fangirls, and now ... Aro fangirls. Quite possibly, it could happen. They could make a t-shirt with him on it, and a button, and a poster, and a pin, and when that happens, I'll want to sit on the couch and eat out of a keg of ice cream. *cries*

Great. Now I kind of like, want to go see this. Like 0.01 percent of me wants to go see it just because of him. If I end up going, though, at the end I'll think to myself just like I did with Twilight, "God, that was a terrible movie."

I think I've had enough Twilight to last me until the year 90,000, and then some.

Great! Now I feel much better. Howzabout you? (:

Ah, well, my good friend dani. It seems you have overlooked one small tidbit of info. Chris Weitz acutally has money to make New Moon. Unlike Catherine Hardwick, he is not going to have to resort to poor quality special effects and CG. Therefore, it might be good. Dakota Fanning or not. I'm still not sure how I feel about that. --Anna <3
