Oh. My. Edward.

I thought a long time about the title of this post and couldn't think of a good one. What could bring me out of my blogging slump for the past few weeks? You guessed it, readers... something Twilight-related. :)

This time it's New Moon-movie news... for the past few months, New Moon has been filming in Vancouver and they are now over in Italy where the climax of this book takes place. Ancient vampire royalty, Bella/Alice, stolen yellow Porsches, Edward potentially doing himself in, and all kinds of other fabulousness.

This 2nd movie in the now "franchise" has a different director and a bigger budget. I wasn't sure at first, but after watching all the leaked photos over the past few months, I feel certain that Chris Weitz is getting it right. They are ALL getting it right.

In particular, this week in Italy, they've shot the big moment... the moment where Bella runs across a crowded courtyard to save Edward and seal her eternity with him. And the pics from the shoot are... well... I have no words.

That's not actually true... I have tons of words... they are spectacular, amazing, super-sexy, and completely and totally my mental image of this pivotal moment in New Moon, my favorite of the 4 books.

You can see this fabulousness in all its glory here, and here, and pretty much all over any Twilight or entertainment site on the web.

Yes, readers... it's the simple pleasures that get me through. By now, you know this well.

p.s. 4 1/2 days left until SUMMER!!!!!!!!!

I've been in a giddy, Edward-induced haze for the past week. First Cannes, and now the Italy shots. The fantasy Gods are truly smiling on is ... and it is good.
