If you like your weekly bit of entertainment news in magazine form, I hope you have a subscription to Entertainment Weekly, because something tells me the new issue, hitting stands tomorrow (Friday, November 7th), will be hard to find soon. The issue features the upcoming vampire flick Twilight on its cover - you know, the movie that has both teenagers and their mothers swooning (and, according to the article inside, both tween boys and girls in their demographic).
Considering the movie’s heavy duty audience is already responsible for numerous medical bills due to their high pitched shrieks of delight, you can only imagine the carnage that will come as they track down issues of Entertainment Weekly - especially because the magazine has gone especially savvy and released three separate covers for the issue. The first of the three covers has Robert Pattison (image on right) - the crossover actor from that other successful fantasy franchise, Harry Potter (he played Cedric Diggery for the unaware).
Along with a sneak peek at the first cover, EW has released a sneak at the feature article over at EW.com. Tomorrow you’ll see another of the covers and their interview with actress Kristen Stewart. Those online peeks at the covers may be the only chance you get to see the magazine’s front though, unless you have a subscription or beat the rabid fanbase to stores. Heck, I’m even thinking about rigging my mailbox with a crucifix and garlic, just to make sure nobody tries to steal my issue.

I had never read the Twilight set of books before watching the movie and I absolutely LOOOOOVEd IT! I tend to get sucked into movies and fantastical settings due to my cosmilogical sign.... I was told today by a friend that towards the beginign of casting for this film, Patterson, was told that he wasn'pretty enough for this role which I'll tell you right now is simply not true (not only by his acting was he able to demostrate his god given talent but also his grasp of an even truer identity of Edward.) Also, by his skill of acting...not was hde blessed by his odd blessed talent ..we definitely see the potential in you(Patterson) as a serious actor but as a physically applealing chactrer (aka hotttt).... I ABSOLUTELY LOOOVE ANd have BECOME LOST IN THIS STORY....As a matter of fact I have vowed not to read these novels until after (colleg(e) finals so that there would exist no distraction..... Can I meet you Patterson??? ( I promise I am not a stocker....)
