Catherine Hardwicke, the director of the screen version of Twilight, based on the best selling book series written by Stephenie Meyer, has announced that she’ll be releasing her own “Twilight Director’s Notebook.” I’m Sure this thing will be chock full of secrets and inside information that only someone as special as the director could know. According to MTV Movies Blog:
the book will contact “inside secrets on casting, location scouting and wardrobe to storyboard sketches, behind-the-scenes photographs, personal notes about Catherine’s favorite scenes and much more.”
I can imagine page one reading something like this, “we had to get a bunch of pretty looking young people to play as vampire teens. I told our casting director to go find some pretty looking young people with fair complexions. R0×0rs!!” Or perhaps insightful information like, “today we made a sign that said ‘Welcome to Forks, Washington’ or some shit.” Also, I’m sure you’ll find plenty of personal notes like, “this movie is gonna stink to high heaven but it’s Twilight and everyone’s gonna see it anyway. I’m gonna be rich OMFG!!11″ Then of course her favorite scene, “I luv the part when they’re playin’ baseball and the bad vampires come and smell Bella and they all start lookin’ like they’re gonna attack. It was just like West Side Story!! OMG I luv that!”
Ms. Hardwicke, I have to give it to you. I mean, why not capitalize on a young fan base willing to gobble up and pay top dollar for anything that says Twilight on it? Who can blame you for putting together a notebook full of your pointless insight into visualizing teen angst vampirism into a mediocre gothic-wannabe film? I’m sure you’ll include a pic in your bio with a t-shirt that says “I heart Edward Cullen.” OMFG I can’t wait for this book!!!
