Fanfiction Recommendation Friday!

So this week on FRF, I’m posting early and posting an oldie that I never thought to recommend to all you lovelies before. I feel so bad . .  because I’ve been finding all these lovely new fics ( and brainstorming my own) and this one was one of my favorites that used to distract me from when I was supposed to be studying last semester. LOL . Anywho, I won’t babble too much this week.

Title: Creature of Habit

Author:EZRocksAngel

Featuring: Edward & Bella

Story Type: Rated: M – English-Romance/Supernatural

Status: Complete

Summary:Bella begins working for the elusive and distant Edward Cullen who she discovers is hiding behind an elaborate charade to maintain his secret lifestyle. Bella is determined to find out the mysteries of Edward Cullen but with what results? AU, OOC.

*lemons – sexy times

* AU – Alternate Universe

* OOC – Out of Character

Reason I read & recommend it: Once upon a time, there was a girl named De (me) who had the crazy love jones for a sparkly tortured vampire named Edward. The only way this girl could get her fix from said sparkly one, was to discover the marvelousness that was to find EZRocksAngel‘s wonderful story. So upon reading this story I discovered a wonderfully different Bella from the books & by now you all know I love that. Edward’s character is amazing and I give kudos the EZ for all the wonderful details that she added to his character to make girls such as myself swoon over him even more. The beginning of the story may throw you for a loop, but that loop is worth going for . . . I was always eager to see what Edward would say to Bella that day or what Bella would do in regards to Edward.

Overall, the story most definitely keeps you wondering and for me that’s a great thing.

So if you love the sparkly one and have a sparkly unreachable itch that can only be scratched by said sparkly one. . . I advise you to read this story.

Let me know what you think, if you decide to give it a chance; you won’t be sorry.

‘New Moon’ Box Office Numbers

Posted November 25, 2009 by Larry Richman
THURSDAY BOX OFFICE IS IN: New Moon takes in $9.2M, will pass Twilight todayNOTE: Previous box office totals for The Twilight Saga: New Moon are posted HERE.

What’s next? Of course, we’ll continue adding to the tally each day both domestically and internationally. But the big question is, what about next weekend? Rival studios have pretty much thrown in the towel and industry experts all agree that nothing will topple Summit Entertainment’s The Twilight Saga: New Moon from the box office just yet. Media analysts agree. How will Disney’s Old Dogs do battle with the werewolves? Will Warner Bros. Ninja Assassin fight off the vampires? Warner “should peel more than a few young males away from [New Moon’s] largely female-driven fan frenzy,” writes Carl DiOrio in The Hollywood Reporter. However, DiOrio notes that “many students and adults will have Friday off, and many young girls are already heading back to the theater for repeat viewings” of New Moon.

Look for another #1 showing at the box office, with predictions of $60M being about average among analysts. Will they be proven wrong again?

UPDATE 1:00 PM FRIDAY 11/26:

Thursday’s box office estimates are in. The Twilight Saga: New Moon took in another $9.2M from 4042 locations with a per screen average of $2286 to kick off the four-day Thanksgiving holiday weekend. This increases the film’s domestic total to $188.2M through its first seven days of release. The current worldwide total is $320.3M. There have been no new international numbers all week so the actual total should be much higher when Summit releases updated figures this Sunday.

With just a few million to go to reach Twilight’s total domestic box office take of $192,769,854, after today’s numbers come in New Moon will have made more in eight days than Twilight did in its entire 147-day run from November 21, 2008 to April 2, 2009. Although the film was toppled from first place on Thursday by Warner Bros.’ football-themed The Blind Side with $9.5M, New Moon is expected to take the weekend.

UPDATE 3:00 PM THURSDAY 11/26:

Wednesday’s box office estimates are in. The Twilight Saga: New Moon took in another $14.3M from 4024 locations with a per screen average of $3,554. This increases the film’s domestic total to $179M. The current worldwide total is $311.1M.

TimesLive Chats With Robert Pattinson

On a balmy autumn day in Vancouver, Canada, a young man is longing for a walk outside in the sunshine, and deciding against it.

 

Far easier for him to stay in his hotel room, cocooned in five-star luxury, with a cellphone that has run out of charge, safe at least from the girls chanting his name outside.

Robert Pattinson, 23, from Barnes in southwest London, ought still to be one of Hollywood’s beautiful dreamers, moving up the ranks of movie acting, enjoying his American adventure, his guitar, his good looks. Instead he lives in danger of being trampled in a stampede of teen love. He plays the vampire Edward Cullen in The Twilight Saga, the biggest books-to-screen phenomenon since Harry Potter – in which, by the way, Pattinson was Cedric Diggory, heroic golden boy and victim of Voldemort. Boy, his life has changed since Hogwarts.

In Canada, he is shooting Eclipse, the third of Stephenie Meyer’s quartet of novels. The second, New Moon, was released this month in a publicity extravaganza that involved shutting down New York’s Times Square. The last time the actor was there, the square was also closed to traffic, for an event only marginally more fascinating to the world: the election victory of Barack Obama. We talk on the phone. Even now, a year afterTwilight’s release, Pattinson sounds utterly stunned by the hysteria swirling around him.

“It’s been a little frightening,” he laughs, a sort of embarrassed chuckle, the sound of someone negotiating the best bit of luck they have ever had, not wanting to sound blasé or overexcited. “In England, no one had heard of the series when I went for the audition, so it has been a total, utter surprise. The change to my everyday life is so extreme. Before this, I was used to working 10 days a year. Originally, I did a three-picture deal, but I wasn’t even really thinking about that . I had no idea I’d still be working on it now.”

Does the poor boy, who still calls London home, feel he has to hide? “I tend to stay in the hotel because where I’m staying is publicised all the time. There’s always a bunch of people outside. I can’t really be in Los Angeles now at all. It’s not that the fans are threatening, but the paparazzi follow me all night.” This hounding can evoke an absurd sympathy, considering the kid’s fortune and prospects. But then he brightens, telling me he was buying a guitar the other day and had to spell his name 12 times, and the guy still didn’t twig. “I loved that.”

When he read the first script, he had no idea how to play it. “I thought Bella, the heroine, would be a damsel in distress and I’d have to be the alpha-male hero type, so I thought I was never going to get it. But then they cast Kristen Stewart and she’s not really like that, so I realised there was a different way to play Edward, to show his vulnerability.” Could he get trapped and find it hard to move on to different sorts of roles?

“It worries me, because the whole Twilight thing keeps getting bigger and bigger, and now it’s so big, even my own ego can’t cope with it. A certain amount of success you can mentally deal with, but there’s a point where you think: ‘Jesus Christ, what is this? I’m not that great!’ I just wanted to make an American film, and I wanted it to be relatively good and to be good in it. I have never pushed to do anything . As soon as you start going to the gym every day and try to look like a movie star, you’re going down a worrisome track.” He laughs. “Being an English guy, you get a lot more breaks. You’re allowed to look a little worse. It’s that thing about English teeth.”

To say New Moon is eagerly awaited is like saying the Pope could use a miracle. Moreover, it promises to be twice as hormonally charged as Twilight, since it offers two poster boys for the price of one.

Is Pattinson embarrassed to have millions of girls in love with him? “The only time it’s embarrassing is when you do a photo shoot and people try to force you to look clean-cut,” he says. “When they use pictures where you’re smiling sweetly and having your hair brushed, because that’s not what you want to be known for. I don’t really know why the girls love the movie so much. The series has become a bit of a cult. People like being part of the club. They’re obsessed.”
