Det her er den andre dokumentaren fra Forks (ooops, gikk visst glipp av den første), der vi får møte det "virkelige" Twilight.
Fra twilightinforksmovie via Twilight Lexicon.
WOW til at de har hatt 250 000 Twilightturister på besøk! Bare hør her (fra filmen Destinantion Forks sin offisielle hjemmeside):
"Over 250,000 fans have made the pilgrimage to the real Forks, Washington to breathe in the reality that inspired Stephenie Meyer’s epic saga – have you? We take you on a behind-the-scenes tour of the town: inside the real-life Cullen house, Bella’s house, Jacob’s house and many more, and set the mood of Twilight with the amazing beauty of the woods, beaches, and mountains of the area. Walk on First Beach in La Push, drive with Bella in her old Chevy pickup to Edward's house, and go to the heart of the Olympics where Jacob and Edward protected Bella from Victoria's attack. Eat mushroom ravioli at Bella Italia in Port Angeles, and drive through the woods as Bella and Edward did on the way home from their first date."
Hvis filmen ikke er nok og du faktisk vil REISE til Forks - hva med å bli med i Platekompaniets Eclipsekonkurranse der du kan vinne billetter til, ja nettopp, Forks? Ikke så mye info på nettsiden, men i følge mine kilder må vi svare på noen enkle spørsmål om Twilight.

Lomme-Edward reiser til Forks
Hvorfor skrive om at Eclipse nå kan forhånsbestilles på DVD og Blu-Ray eller siste nytt fra Twilighthåndmodelldama (srsly - selge epleduftende håndkrem på Twilight Conventions?), at virkelige mennesker har Twilightbryllup (litt) eller ikke minst at IMDB har kåret Melinda Sordino i Speak - spilt av Kristen Stewart - til en av de beste kvinnelige rollene det siste tiåret. Hun danker ut noen skikkelig store filmnavn som Meryl Streep og Kate Winslet, og jeg kan skjønne det, fordi Speak er ikke bare god, men en viktig film. Wo Duh-hoo!
Men så kom dette presserende behovet for i stedet å konsentrere seg om Lomme-Edward.
Hun som laget videoen skriver: "Run Edward Run! Join Pocket Edward as he takes a run around Kalaloch, Forks and Port Angeles, WA on the Olympic Peninsula."
Jeg storkoste meg gjennom hele greia, og ble påminnet om at jeg selv satt og tok bilder av Lomme-Edward ut av bilvinduet gjennom store deler av Arizona i sommer. Helt normalt.
Men jeg knakk ikke sammen før helt på slutten da denne meldingen poppet opp: "No treaties were brokwn in the making of this video".
Å, Twilight.

Edwardhottie
Jeg har akkurat vært på konsert med A-HA og sier meg enig i at the sun always shines on TV, om man da ikke bor i the wettest place in the continental US.
Her er en Edwardhottie:

Dagens sitat: "I think about Twilight as much as men think about sex". Men snakker vi Rob eller Edward?
Jeg har en bekjennelse å komme med. Jeg er mer forelska i Robert Pattinson enn i Edward. Det betyr ikke at jeg ikke er litt forelska i Edward også, men det er kanskje riktigere å si at jeg er forelska i hele Twilighuniverset - med Edward som favorittkarakter.
Jeg må også innrømme at jeg har gått i den fella at jeg trodde andre fans var som meg, og at jo eldre vi var, jo i større grad var vi besatt av den ekte, virkelige, mannen Robert Pattinson, og i mindre grad opptatt av Edward. La meg gjenta: Absolutt opptatt av og forelska i og stor fan av Edward, for ikke å snakke om dratt inn hver gang jeg leser Twilight, men BESATT av Rob. Dessuten har jeg aldri sett på Edward som perfekt (Stephenie Meyer er enig med meg!). Rob er perfekt.
Jeg tok feil.
Edward.

Mannebladet Details - det bladet, ja - har en herlig artikkel skrevet av Jeff Gordinier om godt voksne Edwardfans. Nytt favorittsitat: "I think about Twilight as much as men think about sex":
So the Woman You Love Has the Hots for a Vampire. What Does That Say About You?
Jeg hopper inn et stykke ut i artikkelen. Det handler om en gruppe kvinner i sin beste alder (30 - og 40-åra), som har resit til Forks for å feire Stephenie Meyer Day.
"I dream about him," says Tanna Noble, a 46-year-old Twihard from Eatonville, Washington. Dangling from her neck is an ancient-looking pendant that represents the Cullen family crest. "I dream explicit dreams about Edward. You can't put down what I dream about Edward. It is very, very erotic. It's not Rob Pattinson. It's Edward.""

Fra sodahead.com.
""Rob is just Rob," chimes in her friend Lynn Robbins, a 46-year-old mother of two who has made the trip from Virginia. "It's not about Rob at all." Tanna and Lynn first met electronically, on a Twilight fan site where Tanna, using the pseudonym "Cynder," has logged more than 7,200 posts. Right now, Lynn is wearing topaz-colored contact lenses that cover her normally blue-green eyes, because—well, it's complicated to explain, but in the first Twilight book, Bella tells Edward that her new favorite gemstone is topaz because of the color of his eyes. Twilight fanatics are as precise with their details as Civil War reenactors.
"I would love to be bitten by Edward," Tanna says. "He's just everything. Oh, my God. It's O.M.E.—oh, my Edward! Not a day goes by that I don't think about Twilight. I think about Twilight as much as men think about sex.""
Pattinson. Robert Pattinson.
Fra newmoonbuzz.com.
"Ask these two friends why so many women their age have latched onto Twilight, and they answer in unison: "Forbidden love." Then ask them if Edward bears a resemblance to their husbands.
"Not at all," Lynn says.
"Nooo," says Tanna. "No way."
They go on to talk about something that becomes a running theme during this weekend—so much so, in fact, that a casual visitor might come to the conclusion that all that vampire stuff is little more than a red herring. What Stephenie Meyer Day really boils down to is a cloaked symposium on the state of American marriage. In other words: Gentlemen, your wives have something they want to tell you. The polite way to put it is that the pressures and demands of running a home in the 21st century have a way of siphoning off the platelets from even the most red-blooded of romantic unions. To be blunt: Life is a grind, and our wives are bored shitless. Edward Cullen has, for millions of passion-starved better halves worldwide, become the undead embodiment of everything the contemporary schlub seems to have shed: danger, poetry, strength, speed, eternal devotion, and an insatiable hunger for the jugular. Meanwhile, the defanged mortal males of Earth, their rumps firmly planted in front of the flat-screen and their breath faintly fragrant of Pirate's Booty, have become, thanks to Edward, one big collective cuckold."

""A lot of guys tell me they think Edward's a stalker," says Kristina Hart, a 30-year-old Boeing employee. "I wouldn't mind being stalked by Edward." She's wearing a T-shirt that says, "Edward can BUST my headboard, BITE my pillows, and BRUISE my body any day!"
Apparently it's not Edward Cullen who's been living in the dark. It's you."
Mest Robfan - som meg? Totalt uenig i at "Rob is just Rob" (WTF?!??)? Fortvil ikke, vår objektivisering og sexploitation av Robert Pattinson er også veldokumentert!

Mer Twilight i Forks
Jeg greier ikke mer. Jeg må ha den her. Likte han læreren på skolen som sier at det er som å våkne opp en dag og plutselig underviser du på Hogwarts he he

Twilight i Forks
Jeg postet faktisk denne traileren for lenge siden, men tiden er inne for å minne om at samtidig som New Moon slippes på DVD, slippes også dokumentaren Twilight in Forks.
Her får vi en sjanse til å se hvordan det EGENTLIG er i Forks, og hvordan de forholder seg til berømmelsen. Jeg tror vi kan forvente noen gærninger, jf. hun som har kledd seg opp som Alice...Forfriskende.

Forks, Washington
Jeg skal på jentetur til USA til sommeren, men til nå har jeg vurdert å prioritere Florida og Vegas framfor Forks. Men nettsiden til Forks fikk meg til å tvile. For hvem ville ikke gått seg en tur i den vakre naturen eller fisket laks i en av elvene? Eh...
Bare i Forks.
Fra Twilight Secrets.
Jeg ville i hvert fall satset på Twilighthotellet og en av Twilightturene (eller alle), for ikke å snakke om alle fotomulighetene med Lomme-Edward som ville åpnet seg.
Fra cafepress. Ja, du kan få dette på t-skjorta di.
Det er ikke bare meg som vil til Forks - faktisk er det slik at folk flokker til Forks, i følge CNN:
"It's only got a couple of stoplights, and a pretty constant rain.
But that hasn't stopped thousands of visitors from making the trek to Forks, Washington, a small logging town in the Pacific Northwest of the U. S. -- the setting for the hugely popular vampire saga "Twilight."
The small town of just 3,000 residents was suffering from the logging industry's decline. But "Twilight," set in Forks but not actually filmed there, changed all that.
While other nearby areas have seen a decrease in tourism, Forks is enjoying a vampire-inspired tourist boom.
Tilfeldig illustrasjonsbilde.
Fra Robsessed.
Last year, 2008, was the town's biggest tourism year ever and residents say carloads of visitors, mostly giddy teenage girls, are showing up every weekend these days.
Marcia Bingham, executive director of the Chamber of Commerce, said the town's Twilight-inspired turnaround has been nothing short of miraculous.
"We've probably had more than 100 people a day," Bingham told the Associated Press as van after van of tourists pulled up in front of the town's visitor center."

What the Forks?
En dokumentar om Forks er på vei og dette er traileren:
Jeg skal på roadtrip i USA neste år, og det er mulig jeg må legge inn aksjer for en liten tur til Washington. Etter at vi har vært i Shreveport, mener jeg (Fangtasia, anyone?). Vi kunne jo booke oss inn på dette hotellet, som etter sigende ligger i Forks:

Fritt for Edwardrommet!
