New Moon Trailer: What’s Missing?
Posted by Nim

MTV’s Larry Carrol has an article that talks about what factors are missing from the new Meet Jacob Black trailer.

The Vanishing Volturi — As any good Twilighter knows, the Volturi feature prominently not only in “New Moon,” but also in the overall arc of the “Twilight” saga. So, why have they become the J.D. Salinger of the film series? We want full-on, official shots of Aro, Caius, Marcus and the rest. No more slowing down video clips to see if that’s Michael Sheen in the background — it’s time to bring out the big guns.

Quil Be Seeing You — Everybody’s got their own favorite quasi-obscure “Twilight” character, and mine is Jacob’s “wingman” Quil Ateara. We know he’s played by Tyson Houseman in the film, but we haven’t seen so much as a publicity shot yet. Sure, some might laugh — but I’ll be wearing a “Team Quil” shirt when I see the film on opening night. Which reminds me of a second complaint: Why has no one invented “Team Quil” T-shirts yet?

The Cliff Dive — Kristen Stewart told us long ago that Bella’s pivotal cinematic near-suicide will be CGI, and we’ve got to admit: We’re still a bit concerned. Fan-made videos like this one give us an idea of some things to expect from what could be the most powerful moment in “New Moon,” but so far, nothing official. Come on, Chris Weitz — cough it up!

Read the rest HERE and you can also check out MTV’s screenshots of the trailer HERE!

WHY IS THE CLIFF DIVE CGI?! IT WOULDN’T BE THAT HARD TO DO IT FOR REAL!!! JUST EDIT OUT THE BUNGEE CORD!!! iT ONLY TAKES A FEW SHOTS!!! WIMPS!!!

And i so want a “Team Quill” T-shirt.

I don’t like how on one of the pictures it says..
“Bella has trouble accepting that Edward left her”
I mean of course she was in the deepest depression possible, but she never thought that Edward could love her like she loved him. She kept saying it didn’t make sense for him to love her. So actually she understood that he left, she was wrong, but in her mind it made sense that he left her.

Haha, Sheila. =)

It’s true, “We want it all, and we want it now!” I can’t wait ’til New Moon comes out!!! XP




  by Kelseyy in August 18 - 9:55 AM
 

hah I agree WE WANT IT ALL NOW! but if you think about it there is still 93 days left till the movie! (ahh too long) I’d rather they give us more sporadically through out these next few months, then give it all right now. Because I don’t think I could wait 93 days if they showed us everything we want now, and nothing in the next months. Just my opinion :]




  by Sheila in August 18 - 9:57 AM
 

I know. *sigh* But i’m so indecisive….




  by CullenGirl76 in August 18 - 10:08 AM
 

93 DAYS?! Dang, that’s a long time…

He’s right about the “Team Quil” shirts, except I would much rather enjoy a “Team Seth” shirt…because Seth is awesometastical like that.

I am soooooooo excited for this movie to come out ….AWESOME!!! :D




  by Kris Cullenz in August 18 - 11:02 AM

but i really wish that they would have kept some scenes in.
it was to much for me to handle.

i can’t wait! I’m so wearing my Bella jacket the night i see it! woo woo!!

  by lizzie in August 18 - 11:20 AM
 

I just noticed that right at the end of the trailer where the release date is shown, underneath it says GoTeamJacob.com LOL




  by reyne in August 18 - 11:35 AM
 

“KCullen!” I agree with you!




  by MARYALICE in August 18 - 11:52 AM
 

IS IT ME OR IS THAT EVERY TIME I SEE THIS VIDEO, I JUST DIE???




  by Sophiya in August 18 - 12:15 PM
 

I agree MaryAlice. I first saw the trailer on the 14th and have watched the trailer a signifigant amount of times (that is really an understatement) but every time I see it, I get the same rush (again, understatement) by watching it as I did the first time. Especially because it is in EXTREME high quality now ;)




  by goldensrule93 in August 18 - 12:35 PM
 

Ill tell u whats missing. His first name is Edward and his last name is Cullen! Haha. Enough Jacob. I want more of Eddie. I want see his after Italy, in Italy, thats the major climax after all. And I want to see more of the cullens. Not even one climps of alice or carlisle were in this trailer




  by MARYALICE in August 18 - 1:07 PM
 

@Sophiya. there are no words to describe new moon, let alone any of the books.
it loook sooo much different in HD, that [for the second time] i felt like crying, it amazing!!
i mean, being team jacob might have helped with the state i was in while watching it.
*watches it another 5 times. comes back*
yep, still gets rush :]=

  by Des Black in August 18 - 4:38 PM
 

Okay I watched the trailer more than 100 times

1. Jacobs hot

3. Its gonna be the BEST movie of 2009




  by alice in August 18 - 6:54 PM

  by ewa in August 19 - 1:32 AM
 

woow. awesome
ah. you’re happy girls. i must waiting until december. in my country premiere it’s going to be in 4 mounths ;(((




  by Kelseyy in August 19 - 6:57 AM
 

As much as I love Edward and the Cullens, I don’t think we need more of them. New Moon is mostly about Jacob and Bella’s developing relationship and the wolves. We will see the vampires where we need to see them according to the book. As much as it does stink a little since we all LOVE the Cullens, I’d rather stay true to the book.
*But then again I mostly feel like this since Im totally a Jacob/wolf girl <3 :]




  by Team Edcob in August 19 - 8:54 AM
 

There’s nothing missing!!! I looooove it!!:)




  by crimson in August 19 - 1:06 PM
 

Eeew! Dog breath ( rinses mouth out with soap ).




  by Cass in August 19 - 6:24 PM
 

Um..maybe they want the cliff diving and the Volturi underwraps so it doesn’t spoil the movie. I know I don’t wanna see it. And I enjoy the almost always shirtless Jake. ;D




  by MichiS in August 19 - 10:05 PM
 

well they sorta did show the cliff diving scene.. just not the diving part lol. they show her in the water =D
yea I think it would make it more intense if they showed her jumping off in the trailer.. sorta like suspense of whats gonna happen to her (although we already know lol)
