DIS Twigirls & Twiguys Coven Podcruise Meet 2.0

[Tonya2426]

DIS Twigirls & Twiguys Coven Podcruise Meet
For all you Twigirls and Twiguys planning on going on the DIS Podcast Cruise 2.0 on December 12th, let's plan on getting together and be Fangirls and Fanguys together. (Time and location to be determined later.)

We met on the First DIS Podcast Cruise on May 13th and had a great time talking about our favorite parts of the books with a little bit of giggling thrown in at the idea of leaving our stateroom doors open for Edward. :rolleyes1 We even had cake in honor of Rob Pattinson's birthday - and some wine. :rolleyes1

Thread from the first podcruise: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2089121

If the movies stay on the same schedule then Eclipse will have just been released so we should have lots to chat about. (And this will give us an excuse to read the books again - like we need an excuse.) :rolleyes1

Let me know if you would like to attend and I will add you to the list. (I know it is a long time from now but this will give us a chance to have fun for the next year and a half. :yay: Let's face it, there is never enough Twilight in your life. ;))

[L.E. Ott]

The enemy is lurking in the background again.....


Actually, I want to work with you guys on this one. IF this happens to be on Nassau day, and IF theres enough interest amongst the non-twilight partners, I'd like to get a group GreyCliff Cigar Co. excursion going. So can you all ask your non-twi partners if they'd be interested?

[Dodie]

I'm in, Tonya. It was one of the highlights of PCC 1.0 for me!

[wildfan1473]

Hi Tonya, I'd love to be added to the list. I also had another idea that I'd like to throw out for consideration. What do you think about a non-slumber party? There's got to be Twlight jammies out there somewhere! We wouldn't have to stay the whole night.....too crazy?

[DVCsince02]

Love that idea!

[Tonya2426]

We could probably think up something to go along with this. Maybe a meet under the stars on Deck 9? Too early to plan anything definite but I like the idea. :goodvibes

[sandyh67]

Thanks Tonya- you know I will be there!
Also have a friend Fran who will be coming- Edward fan all the way, and disney fan but not a diser- yet- You can add her or wait- it is up to you!

I know before we left on vacation Walmart was starting to get in Twillight clothing. However the selection was very limited.
I think if we do this, I will be making my own..:rotfl:

From the way things are already going this is going to be a awesome meet.:cool1:

[experiment_627]

I wore my Isle Esme shirt to our first meet, so I am all about an excuse to buy more clothes...especially jammies! :thumbsup2

How fun!

[sandyh67]

Isle Esme shirt- how did I miss that??
Is there a picture?

BTW- someone on twilightsource.com put together all the pictures of the italy scene in sequence to music, it is really good- like a sneak peak at the scene!:lovestruc

[Tonya2426]

Here is a great article (especially for Stephan!!!) ;)

http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104347311&sc=fb&cc=fp

Real Men Read (And Love) 'Twilight' — Really

There are — news flash here — true differences between men and women.
A friend who has twins (one boy, one girl) told me the story of when they were down at a pond, and the young twins spotted a cute little duck.
The little girl said, "I want to pet the duck."
The little boy said, "I want to kill the duck."

I rest my case.

And with that gender gauntlet thrown, let me say to you as a meat-eating, Entourage-watching, sports-loving (OK, I really don't love sports, or actually understand sports) — heterosexual man who can't sit through a single show on Lifetime television, let me loudly proclaim: I, Brad Meltzer, love the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer.

Now this is the part where I'm supposed to make an intellectual disclaimer like: I don't really love it, but I appreciate it for what it is.
But let me be clear here. I love it. I love Twilight. I love Bella, and I love Edward.

I'm not alone. Since it debuted in 2005, the Twilight series has sold over 53 million copies, making it the hottest thing in bookshops since that nerdy kid with the lightning-bolt scar.

But back to what's really important: Me.

I love this story of the gawky, awkward girl who falls in love with the brooding vampire. And I love that she can't get sexual with said vampire because when her blood gets pumping, it'll send him into a frenzy and he'll kill her. (How's that for a prophylactic?)

I love hearing the dark secret histories of how the other vampires were turned into vampires. And I love when Edward gets all huffy with Jacob the werewolf — oh my God, I'm on the verge of writing fan-fic here — but again, in case you missed it, I love this story.
But for the most part, I've told almost no one.

Y'know why?

Because as a man, this book is not supposed to be for me.
I realized this when I went to see the Twilight movie. Yes, I was there. Opening weekend. We got a babysitter for it. And I sat there in the dark with my wife and a roomful of suburban mothers and a smattering of teenage daughters. I counted. There were four other men (all teenagers) besides me. Me. Four dragged-along boyfriends. And the rest women.
But you know who I blame for this?

I blame my fellow men. That's right. I blame all the men out there who point fingers and call things "girlie" and run like spineless cowards whenever something gets embraced by the opposite sex.
It happens all the time. Remember when men were named Terry and Robin and Leslie? And then a few cool girls were named Teri and Robin and Leslie. And what happened? The men ran. Those names were ceded to the women.

To be honest, I can handle that for Leslie. Leslie is just not a cool name (no offense to Leslie Sydelman, who came to my bar mitzvah). But I will not let this stand for Twilight. We'd never dismiss Romeo and Juliet as "just for women." (Yes, I know — I'm not saying it's Shakespeare, and I still think Harry Potter is better — but don't mess up my analogy.) I won't cede Twilight.

And so I challenge — not the men out there; the men are clearly wusses — I challenge the women. Give Twilight to your teenage sons. Give it to your nephews and husbands and other guy types. Tell them it's cool. Tell them they'll like it. Tell them that it'll help them understand women and therefore help them get dates (c'mon, why else do you think I spent so much time with Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret)

And I issue this challenge — not for sexual equality, not to break down gender barriers. I issue it for the most vital reason of all: The sequel is coming, and I'm tired of being the only guy in the movie theater.

[experiment_627]

I immediately thought of him when I saw the link on FB, and I hadn't even read the article yet. :laughing:

I have told him over and over that he would like them if he would just read them. Of course, I told him the same thing about the DIS and the podcast. Two years and a cruise later, he decides I was right. So, I'll sit back and see if this is the same way. It just might take some time. :goodvibes

[experiment_627]

This is the only one I can find. I have the oddest looks on my face in every picture I have seen of me. It is kinda stressing me out. :lmao:

[MrandMissVacation]

Just wanted to stop by and say HI to the fellow Twi-fans.

Sadly we will not be on PCC 2.0. I just cannot swing it.

However.. with Pete's announcement about PCC 1.5 (that's what I'm calling it) Universal/Orlando.. we will be on that trip (July 2010)

I will just lurk and live vicariously on this meet. :surfweb:

[sandyh67]

Hey everybody,
I have a little gift to give to the first person who reads this and wants it! I purchased the Blueray twilight at target (when I found out that target version had special features, and my sons PS3 plays bluerays :banana:)
It came with a code for the itunes download for the movie. Since I already purchased a version for my iPod (why I won the sweetheart candies for watching the movie the most :lmao:) I thought one of you might like it!
Let me know if any of you would like it and I can email the code to you!

[spaddy]

Sandy, that is so nice. I would ask, but I think someone else might use it more than I would. I hope you enjoy it in BluRay

[momto2inKC]

Oh add me to the list!!!!!
I've attempted to read the books slowly, but New Moon really sucked me in over the weekend! I read it and Eclipse in 2 days :rotfl: I made myself wait all week but we're now heading to Borders so I can buy the last one :goodvibes

[chickie]

I found something we could do at the next meet. I was in Target with Millie the other day, and they actually have a Twilight Board Game. I have no idea what it's like, but for some reason, I thought of you guys and our meet when I saw it!

[sandyh67]

Sandy, that is so nice. I would ask, but I think someone else might use it more than I would. I hope you enjoy it in BluRay

spaddy- cannot for the life of me come up with your name- No one else seems to be jumping, so if you would like it, you can have it- :)

[sandyh67]

I would love to join you guys at the meet! I've only read the series a couple of times, so I'm going to have to brush up on my Twilight Trivia!

[sandyh67]

FYI- if anyone is at all considering the twilight convention cruise- they are capping the convention at 800 attendees and are almost sold out. As of yesterday they were at 650 and are expecting it to be sold out in the next couple of days. Just in case anyone wants to be as impulsive as I am :)

[sandyh67]

OK- what the freak- Kristen chopped ALL her hair off to play Joan Jett! I must have a problem because I am really upset about this! They start filming Eclipse in August for God's sake. I mean, Bella cannot wear a wig! Ok- Jasper and Rosalie, but not Bella!
Anyone else at all upset about this?? :sad2:

I like it so much, I bought New Moon to read this week while traveling.

I watch Twilight, the movie last night.

I liked it. The book was a better story, but the movie was good.

Edward/Robert..........mmmmmmmmm

Yea, yea, Cougar Kat......

Thanks! I can't wait! :lovestruc

[Cherinva]

We just saw the movie...it was great. We would love to attend if we can during our pre cruise trip.

[sandyh67]

Hi everyone- it has been awhile, I have been over on the twilightmoms forums- those girls rock! And on the forums for the twilight convention cruise- you can only obsess over so many forums at a time you know!

Anyway- some of the more computer savvy girls over there made me this rockin' signature that I just had to add to my signature here- I absolutely love it!!!!!!!!!

BTW- did everyone see the news today that some producers have purchased the rights to The Host and it will be made into a movie too!!! Very excited about this, I loved The Host.

[DVCsince02]

Awesome siggy Sandy! I can't wait for New Moon. I love all the trailers being put together buy fans. Gives great insight to the movie and looks so much better than Twilight.

I did read about The Host. I bought it, but haven't read it yet. I'm reading the last Sookie Stackhouse book now and was in the middle of New Moon again when the library called to say it was in. So I plan on finishing those two then reading The Host. I'm not much into Sci Fi, but I'll give it a try.

Hey Jen- I am counting the days until New Moon- cannot wait-

You will love the Host- I am not a huge sci-fi fan either- but she elicits the same emotions that twilight did once you get into the love story-OK, not to the extent Twilight did, but you get the picture. There were parts that just made me sob. It is a little weird in the beginning, took me about 70 pages to get into- but I was up until 2am the night I finished it.
I will be interested to see what you think!

[sandyh67]

Your new signature ROCKS!!!!! So-very-jealous! :)


Thanks Dodie!
Love the girls over on Twilghtmoms- they are so funny. Lots of non-moms there too, so feel free to join us. It is really for adult women who love twilight!

awww Todd- I am sure they would welcome you with open arms :goodvibes
they love guys that love Twilight over there!

[sandyh67]

Ok twigirls and guys- I am trying to recreate the beautiful book thong that one of you made for us for our meet in May- cannot remember who it was that made it-
There are about 20 of us that are going on the twilight convention cruise next August that are doing a gift exchange and I really would like to make that as I have put it to good use!
I am having difficulty locating the glass apple charm that is on the end of it. I know I seached for it awhile back and found it, but cannot locate it now!

Can whoever made this help me out??

From thread #1

I ordered the charms from Oriental Trading. They came in a bag of 25. They are glass, so 3 of them were broken in the bag since the stem is so fragile. (There was a warning about that upon ordering.) They were really cheap. Maybe $8 for 25 or something like that.

I found my glass pendants on eBay. I had to placetwo orders because I kept giving mine away to my friends at home.

[sandyh67]

You are the best Tonya- thanks! Now I remember, now to see if they still have them since it is not coming up on google :confused3

[sandyh67]

Order placed- thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
there is nothing else like those on the internet, at least not from what I pulled up on google, not even anything close at the local bead store in town. In fact, the woman that owns the bead store told me if I found them to let her know where as she could not find them. Wait until she hears they are at oriental trading!

[sandyh67]

Any chance you remember where you got the heart charms? I really want the red bead to be in the heart as yours was- but cannot find one like it- thanks for the apples! Ordered those! Found some wolf charms on ETSY that I think I am going to add as well.
I am making dreamcatchers with the wolf charm for my NM premiere party I am having as a party favor.

Thanks!

[DVCsince02]

New Moon soundtrack out today, right? Anyone wanna give a review?

[Dodie]

I actually did the ink pens with the apple charms and bow with the names of the books around the barrel. Sorry. I didn't have heart charms. I'm glad that you did find the apples still at Oriental Trading though.

I used this pen last night at Jiko to write down what we had... I was just telling Rick I wished I could remember who gave it to me because I LOVE it! I use it all the time, ummmm even for work..(just don't tell the guys- they'll make fun of me)...;)

Thanks Dodie!:hug:

(and I had to go out and buy a whole box of the same ones without the insert and apple- but haven't even opened them...they're just not as fun)

Oh - and my own personal Twi-dork act for today was purchasing the "special limited edition" People magazine about New Moon.

[sandyh67]

I got the people mag too, and the NM movie companion- which is great!

Jen, I bought the soundtrack- very different from twilight, darker I guess you could say. I initially really only liked about 3 songs, but as I listen to it, it is growing on me.
I can say that Alexandre Desplat is a genius! He did the score and has one song on the soundtrack called "the meadow" it is just beautiful, haunting, sad. Perfect for NM as Bella visits the meadow. He should have written the lullaby!

I am having great fun planning my premiere party, will have to post some pics after- I think I have planned more for this than I did for my wedding LOL

One week from tonight I will be at a New Moon dinner party before we all trek out to the show. :cool1:

I need to have my Twilight bracelet ready. :goodvibes

Started reading New Moon again today. :goodvibes

It's a good thing it will be a busy week - I won't even notice the time fly by!

[TheBeadPirate]

Holy Cow!

We stopped by Burger King last night and imagine my surprise when I tore into the bag and found a New Moon package!


It's a folder with cards in it. Like trading cards- 4x6 or so. with coupons/deals on the back and pics on the front! Holy Smokin!


If I had a scanner I'd post them.:sad2:

But I want the Team Edward water bottle listed on one of them...........:rolleyes:

Who's going to a show at midnight tomorrow night?

(I'm going to a matinee at 1:00 on Friday.)

[jeanigor]

Sadly not me. DP won't indulge me. In a midnight showing or Friday, either.

[Dodie]

I have an extra ticket for Friday at 1:00. You take the day off, drive down from Michigan, and I'd be GLAD to have you join us. :rotfl:

Me! :woohoo:

DH scared the living daylights out of me this morning, though. He came home from the bus stop, and commented about the "vampire and werewolf movie" that came out last night. WHAT?!?! He said they were talking about last night's 2 hour premier, and crowd reactions and reviews. WHAT?!?!

I pulled out my tickets, verified they were for tonight, and breathed a HUGE sigh of relief. Turns out, the radio station he was listening to had a private advance screening. Whew!

[jessrose18]

12:01 tonight!!! But of course going to wait in line for 3 hours beforehand my theater has 6 sold out shows at midnight!


update: LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tonya2426]

Saw the movie last night!!! OME!!!!! Stop whatever you are doing and run to the theater to see it now!!!! It was soooooo good - funny, sad, scary, sexy. I can't wait to see it again!!!! :yay::yay::yay::yay::yay::yay:

[DVCsince02]

Need more details, please!

[Tonya2426]

Need more details, please!

Lots of shirtless Jacob. :thumbsup2 (Where were boys like him when I was in high school????) :rolleyes1

The acting was much better in this one - other than a few too many blinks and lip bites I actually liked Kristen Stewart this time. I think they stayed true to the book - a lot is condenced but still gets the point of the story through. Lots of funny lines by Charlie and the wolfpack.

I liked the Volturi - although I was a tiny bit disappointed in Jane - she was a little too American sounding for my taste and would have preferred a little bit more regal sounding voice since she is supposed to be older than how she looks. Not sure if I hadn't read the books if I would have totally understood the Volturi enough to appreciate them - but since we have all read the book it won't be a problem for us. ;)

The contacts and the hair is soooo much better than in Twilight. Although I still hated Jacob's wig - it looked like a wig. But Bella's wig looked good.

There wasn't enough of the Cullen family for me - I know they aren't in the book that much but I would have liked a few more glimpses of them at home - but that is just me.

There wasn't much fan girl screaming in the show I went to which pleased me to no end. :yay:

The last part of the movie is sooooo good!!! It makes you desperate for Eclipse to be in the theater tomorrow. :goodvibes:goodvibes:goodvibes

[wildfan1473]

I pretty much agree with Tonya on everything.

Jacob looked like a little boy in his wig, but short hair and shirtless - um, wow, the cougar came out (there was even a cougar reference ;) )

Better acting, none of the blue lighting, although a few scenes I felt vertigo, which is very unusual for me.

I liked Jane, I thought Dakota Fanning did well.

The ending - holy crow, 203 days and counting :rotfl:

[Dodie]

I just posted the following as my status on Facebook, after getting home from the movie...

Dodie is thankful for a better director, better special effects, better hair and make-up, a better screenplay (much closer to the book), and a bigger budget. New Moon is really, really good!

There were no screaming fangirls in my 1:00 matinee. The only time anyone made a peep was the first time Jacob removed his shirt after Bella wrecked the bike - and that was more like a heated gasp than a scream. ;)

I have NEVER been Team Jacob, but Taylor does such a good job with the character that you really do fall for him a little and feel sorry for him and his struggle.

The end is great. There was another gasp in the theater after the last line as well, probably especially from the folks who haven't read the books. Great cliff hanger!

I can't wait for Eclipse - with Jacob and Edward there throughout the entire movie!

[mainegal]

Hope you all have enjoyed the movie.

I haven't read the books. Can I just watch the movies, or do I need to read the books?

[Tonya2426]

Hope you all have enjoyed the movie.

I haven't read the books. Can I just watch the movies, or do I need to read the books?

I would suggest reading the books first and then see the movies. I think we all fell in love with the characters in the books and that is the reason why we love the movies. Whenever I watch the first movie, I always view it as a supplement for the books and don't think it really stands on its own. If I had seen the movie first I would have liked it but not loved it (and quite frankly, the first movie is only good, not great.)

Whenever people ask me about reading the books, I always suggest that they read the books in this order:

Twilight
Midnight Sun (a partial draft of this was posted on Stephenie Meyer's website and is Twilight from Edward's perspective - this is what made me love the series.)
Twilight - again
New Moon
Eclipse
Breaking Dawn

Once again, I agree with Tonya, with one minor change. New Moon was very difficult for me to get through, and, according to Stephenie Meyer, it is the same for most people. After you finish New Moon, go back and read it again. Maybe not until your finished reading the series, or immediately once you know how it ends, but it is much easier to handle the 2nd time around.

Of course, now that I've "met" the wolves, I can definitely see the appeal :rolleyes1
