Going public? Twilight couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart get cosy at Comic-Con and reveal she cooks for him

Third wheel: Twilight couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart cuddle up in front of the cameras at Comic-Con, leaving co-star Taylor Lautner to stand awkwardly beside them

Everyone on the planet knows they are dating.

But Twilight stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart continue to dodge questions about their relationship and avoid being seen together as much as possible.

But with filming on the hit franchise complete and just two films left to promote, the actors appear to be relaxing their guard, and at Comic-Con today they happily cuddled in front of cameras.


Loved up: Twilight's favourite couple share a laugh at Comic Con

And at the press conference at the comic book, film and TV convention in San Diego, California, Kristen and Rob gave a little insight into their relationship.

The cast were asked by a reporter about each of their 'nerdy' traits. Robert replied that Kristen 'only watches the cooking channel.'

'Especially onset,' he added, 'she has a TV in the makeup trailer- it’s her only diva-ish behaviour. Having the cooking channel on all the time in every room.'

Kristen then jumped and shouted: 'You all reap the benefits!' - leaving fans safe to presume that she is the cook of the couple.

The actress revealed that the security surrounding Bella's wedding dress was the type of treatment awarded to Kate Middleton's.

'I was as nervous and terrified as I expected to be,' she of the scene she said she's been 'ramping up to' for four years.

Kristen revealed there was 'Secret-Service-style crazy security' during filming of the wedding scene, with all crew and cast banned from bringing their phones on set.


Together forever: Bella Swan and Edward Cullen are, at least!

Stars Aligned: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart

Rob and Kristen aren't saying whether they're actually seeing each other, but with a sneaking suspicion that these two are putting some extracurricular work into practicing those upcomingBreaking Dawn honeymoon scenes, we decided to run their star charts anyway.

Rob is a Taurus, which means he's the three S's: sane, stable and stubborn. And that's great because you don't have to be psychic to realize that Kristen could use some stability in her life. The willful Aries' fiery ways are just as likely to burn bridges as they are to ignite the passion of her icy cool vampire boy. But hey that's why this couple works: fire and ice. It almost makes that wince-inducing reading of Robert Frost at the beginning of Eclipse seem excusable... almost.

The Good: Good news Robsten fans. If these two are already together, it's going to take more than paparazzi pot shots to tear them apart. The fire sign/earth sign pairing can fizzle faster than the box office take for Remember Me, but if the two successfully find common ground, the partnership that can produce Twilight level dividends.

Check the interviews to see the two personalities at work.

Rob takes even annoying interviews in stride, openly acknowledging the silliness inherent in his own celebrity as a vampire heartthrob. It's classic fixed sign stuff. He's down-to-earth, funny, and stubbornly unflappable. On the other hand, Kristen is a powder keg waiting to blow when she's interviewed alone. She's quick to annoy, partial to four-letter words and treats her fame like a major pain in the ass.

But get these two together, and the dynamic just evens out. The classic example is the Oprah interview where she asked them both point blank whether they were seeing each other and Rob quickly diffused the situation by joking that Kristen was pregnant.

The Bad: The Taurus/ Aries combo isn't a super-compatible one. Even after getting over that first hump in the relationship, this is the kind of thing that both partners are going to have to actively work at and manage as long as they're together. Rob could always decide he wants someone who isn't going to play strippers and rock stars just to explicitly distance herself from her Twilight persona, and Kristen could decide Rob is just too boring in real life.

In the Stars? If these two really are a couple, their charts suggest they're going to stay that way for a while. Kristen herself has admitted to the immediate attraction she felt toward Rob when they screen-tested together for Twilight. And really isn't that chemistry the real reason we've spent so much money on movie tickets and merchandise over the past three years?

Beyond 'Breaking Dawn' - Will Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart's Careers Flourish?

As the curtain closes on their Twilight careers, the question remains whether or not Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson will continue their box office domination or even come close to it.

While it's impossible to know how well their future films will fair -- both at the box office and critically -- we can look back at their previous roles outside of Twilight.

Judging Them as Actors, Not Sex Symbols

Stewart's first major role outside of the vampire world was Adventureland. This 2009 dramedy won positive reviews, and in Stewart, starred one of the newest, most popular actresses in Hollywood. It would seem like a recipe for success. Only the film was a box office dud, making less than $20 million domestically. At least the critics loved Kristen.

Roger Ebert had this to say about Stewart's performance: "What surprised me was how much I admired Kristen Stewart, who in Twilight, was playing below her grade level. Here is an actress ready to do important things." 

She had proved to the world that she could hold her own on screen, without all the fake blood, make-up and a dreamy Robert Pattinson by her side. What she wasn't able to prove was that she could carry a non-Twilight film to box office gold. Or even silver. $20 million is less than Breaking Dawn will make in one day. 

But what about Pattinson? In 2010's Remember Me, the British hunk starred as a moody New Yorker. It failed to wow critics, but managed to bring in a very respectable $56 million at the box office. Did people flock to the theater just because R-Patz was in the movie?

They certainly showed up in hordes to get his autograph. But then cameWater for Elephants, based on the extremely popular novel by the same name. Compared to Remember Me, this film had a pretty big budget ($38 million), so making around $100 million worldwide wasn't the largest of splashes, but it was impressive when compared with Stewart's numbers. Then again, when you throw in the cost of having the elephant show up at all your press events... who knows how much they really made.

 Their Future

Pattinson is well aware of how big the transition away from Twilight will be. As he explained to the Chicago Sun-Times: "It does feel like a breakup. I do love the guy — and I’m going to miss him. I prefer to think of ending this franchise like leaving school. It’s the last day of high school.” It's nice of Pattinson to make that analogy since most of his fans are high school kids anyway.

The Brit just started production on his newest flick, Cosmopolis, aDavid Cronenberg film that was also based on a book (shocking, we know). There's no way to know how this movie, in its inchoate stages, will develop. But what we do know is that it's given time for Pattinson and Stewart to get cozy together in Toronto while he films in the Canadian city.

Stewart just wrapped up production on the film adaptation of Jack Kerouac's classic novel, On the Road. Again, she'll be starring in a movie based on an immensely popular (and in this case, iconic) book. Though it's not the type of film we see making boatloads of money, it should give her plenty of room to flex her acting muscle. Stewart's also set to play the fairest of them all inSnow White and the Hunstman, set to hit theaters in July 2012. And that film has summer blockbuster written all over it. 

Neither Pattinson nor Stewart have had the kind of success at the box office that their mega-franchiseTwighlight has. But perhaps it's wrong to assume they were directly responsible for turning the vampire goodness into gold. After all, the saga had a deep-rooted and fanatic fanbase before it even came to the big screen, just like Harry Potterbefore it.

That said, their popularity and stardom is unquestionable, which explains why they continue to get hired on for new roles despite their relative inability to draw in the crowds when they aren't sharing the screen. Maybe the only real solution down the line is to just cast them together from now on. Or maybe we're just too excited for Breaking Dawn to think straight. 

New Images from THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN

With The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 arriving later this year (November 18), Summit has finally started up the promotional campaign by giving EW some new images from the final two movies.  In addition, the magazine has tied the new images into a cover story with new quotes from director Bill Condon,  Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner.
While I think the Twilight movies have been getting better with each installment, I’m genuinely excited to see what Condon has done with the final two films as I think he’s a great director.  Also, I can’t wait to see what he’s done with some of the controversial stuff in the last book.

Here’s the synopsis for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn:

In the highly anticipated next chapter of the blockbuster The Twilight Saga, the newfound married bliss of Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) is cut short when a series of betrayals and misfortunes threatens to destroy their world.

After their wedding, Bella and Edward travel to Rio de Janeiro for their honeymoon, where they finally give in to their passions. Bella soon discovers she is pregnant, and during a nearly fatal childbirth, Edward finally fulfills her wish to become immortal.

But the arrival of their remarkable daughter, Renesmee, sets in motion a perilous chain of events that pits the Cullens and their allies against the Volturi, the fearsome council of vampire leaders, setting the stage for an all-out battle.

The suspenseful and deeply romantic Breaking Dawn continues the epic tale of supernatural fantasy and passionate love that has made The Twilight Saga a worldwide phenomenon.

Currently in Production. U.S. release via Summit Entertainment, November 18, 2011, and November 16, 2012.

Ranking the Potter Children (Sort of...)

I ranked my favourite adults of Potter-world a few weeks ago. That was easy. The children? Not so much.
                  

I had planned to rank them, but that seemed unfair. Only three, possibly four, of them get the chance to have constant yearly character development. They’re listed in order of importance – ascending. The five last ones had to be assessed; the other three were just for my interest in them, good or bad. I still graded them, even though there’s a possibility that the grades are a little too arbitrary. It’s difficult to judge performances…I do love Harry Potter, hopelessly, but I’m trying to be as objective as possible.
        

Robert Pattinson as Cedric Diggory

It’s amazing what some hair (and lack of whitening makeup, I presume) can do. I have to squint to find any relation between Pattinson’s Diggory and Edward Cullen. It’s not a sizeable role and he appears in only one instalment, but he’s on point as the morally upright Diggory. He is as anti-Harry as one can get without being, well, evil. And since so many of the children are at their worst in this particularly film he comes out looking even better. I even wished that Diggory (the cinematic one, at least) had won the tournament. (Highpoint: The Goblet of Fire, duh: B)

             

Matthew Lewis as Neville Longbottom

I’m never sure what to make of Neville, on screen or on the page. Certainly, his cinematic equivalent could do with a little more of that back-story (okay, a lot of the back-story), but I don’t care either way; I’m not that interested. The supporting children of Potter-world, especially those not playing someone’s love interest, are dolefully marginalised, especially on the screen, and Neville just seems truncated. I still find his musings on dance in The Goblet of Fire hilarious, though. (Highpoint: The Order of the Phoenix: C+)

Evanna Lynch as Luna Lovegood

Luna is…well and loony. (Really, sometimes Rowling is just a bit too literal when naming her characters.) It’s a tough task to pull off a spaced out but likeable, and still lucid…mostly, character. I suppose it’s even more difficult pulling of a spaced out child. Still, I’m always pleasantly surprised at where she decided to take the character. She has the musicality in the voice down and manages to never come off as ingratiating. Kudos, I say. (Highpoint: The Half Blood Prince: B)

               

Tom Felton as Draco Malfoy

The characterisation of the majority of Slytherins is not Rowling’s strongpoint (it’s just a little too EVIL: end of story). When you have thespians like HBC and Rickman alleviating the issues on screen it works. Alas, Felton is neither. The Malfoy of the first three films was woefully cringe-worthy, every time he would sputter out “Potter!” I would roll my eyes. The older he got, the more he learned to tone it down and it is obvious that the sixth instalment was something of a coming-of-age for him. Granted the role is what it is (hollow, for the most part) but he does some credible things in his brightest moments. (Highpoint: The Half Blood Prince: B-/B)

           

Bonnie Wright as Ginny Weasely

The bad thing about reading the Harry Potter books while the films are in production is that the actors become the image you see of the characters. I have no problem with the Ginny of Rowling’s imagination, but Wright is hopeless bland. I wish they’d recast the role (Juno Temple, anyone) or drop the character. Neither will happen, but I am fanciful. It doesn’t help that she and Radcliffe are painfully uncomfortable around each other, from where I sit. (Highpoint: The Half Blood Prince: D+)

                

Rupert Grint as Ronald Weasely

I think I’ve mad it clear here and elsewhere that I’m most interested in the aftermath of Grint’s career than any other non-adult to have graced the screen, Potter-wise. I’d like to think that it’s more than my general appreciation of the character spilling over. Granted, the Ron of the Potter-cinema is not the same as the Ron of the Potter-books, not absolutely at least. Ron, in the film, comes off as a decided third-wheel, not thanks to the number of Ron’s lines that keep on going to Hermione and others (and that ending in the last film, not a line of dialogue? Bloody Hell!). Nonetheless, Grint continues to be entertaining and sincere. (Highpoint: The Prisoner of Azkaban / The Half Blood Prince: B+)

               

Emma Watson as Hermione Granger

At her worst Emma can be nauseatingly shrill, luckily that’s not too often. At her best she is the epitome of what Hermione should be (but for the occasional stilted readings). Even in the first instalment she has a knack for the snooty side of Hermione. Not surprisingly she’s at her best when flanked by Grint and Radcliffe. She has the sensibilities of the character, but sometimes she’s too on-the-nose with the line-readings (or is the dialogue?). It’s as if Hermione was acting as Hermione, it’s not natural anymore just…tense. She needs to loosen up. (Highpoint: The Goblet of Fire: B)

         

Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter

I know Emma loathes him, I’m less antagonistic. He has the look of Potter down – but that doesn’t say much. Sometimes, though, he seems laughably off in his “characterisation” (this is me going loud: angry, this is me contorting my face: sad, etc). He’s no dramatician (not a real word), it’s simply not his forte; well that’s the conclusion I came to watching the last film. He has never had my attention as much as the few moments where he drinks Felix Felices. His comedic timing, for me, was a marvel. It all occurs as we know the inevitable climax is to come, but he still manages to be humorous – easily so – I really do think comey could be his thing. Sadly, there is no comedy in the next instalment, so I hope that he’s improved. (Highpoint: The Half Blood Prince: B-/B)
       

What do you think of the Potter children? Who outranks whom?

Edward Scissorhands Remake

Edward Scissorhands Remake? Isn't it just riding the wave because one of the 80's film Footloose will have its remake? Actually, the trending topic Edward Scissorhands remake is just another un-verified story/rumor. Some of the commenter from a blog post told that the idea came out from Wikipedia. According to the entry, Robert Downey Jr, star of the movie Iron Man was mentioned that he will be leading the role as creator of Edward. I did checked the Wikipedia entry of Edward Scissorhands but nothing was mentioned about the sequel or the prequel they were saying.

From this rumor Edward Scissorhands remake, Robert Pattinson was also dragged because of his character name Edward from the movie Twilight : New Moon, most awarded in 2010 MTV movie awards.

I searched over the major sites, nothing seems to back up the Edward Scissorhands remake. If anyone from you have the idea about this movie, I would be very glad to have your comments here because I'm a fan of that movie.
