'Twilight Saga' Movie Quotes

'Twilight'

"I'd never given much though to how I would die. But dying in place of someone I love, seems like a good way to go. I can't bring myself to regret the decisions that brought me face to face with death. They also brought me to Edward." — Bella (Kristen Stewart)

'Twilight'

Jessica (Anna Kendrick): "Hey you're from Arizona right?" Bella: "Yeah." Jessica: "Aren't people from Arizona supposed to be like, really tan?" Bella: "Yeah, maybe, that's why they kicked me out."

'Twilight'

Bella: "Are you going to tell me how you stopped the van?" Edward (Robert Pattinson): "Yeah. Um... I had an adrenaline rush. It's very common. You can Google it."

'Twilight'

Bella: "Will you tell me the truth?" Edward: "No, probably not. [Bella turns away slighly angry] I'd rather hear your theories." Bella: "I have considered radiocative spiders and kryptonite." Edward: "All superhero stuff right? But what if I'm not the hero? What if I am the bad guy?" Bella: "You're not."

'Twilight'

Bella: "You're impossibly fast. And strong. Your skin is... pale white, and ice cold. Your eyes change color... and sometimes you speak like-like you're from a different time. You never eat or drink anything; you don't go into the sunlight. [pauses] How old are you?" Edward: "Seventeen." Bella: "How long have you been 17?" Edward: "...a while." Bella: "I know what you are." Edward: "Say it... out loud. Say it." Bella: "Vampire." Edward: "Are you afraid?" Isabella Swan: [turns to face him] "No." Edward: "Then ask me the most basic question: What do we eat?"

'Twilight'

Edward: "And so the lion fell in love with the lamb."Bella: "What a stupid lamb." Edward: "What a sick, masochistic lion."

'Twilight'

"About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him, and I didn't know how dominate that part might be, that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him." —Bella

'Twilight'

Waylon Ned Bellamy): "Well hello." James (Cam Gigandet): "Nice jacket." Waylon: "Who are you?" James: "Always the same inane questions... 'Who are you?'" Victoria (Rachelle Lefevre): "'What do you want?'" James: "'Why are you doing this?'" Laurent (Edi Gathegi): "James... let's not play with our food."

'Twilight'

Esme Cullen (Elizabeth Reaser): "I hope you're hungry." Bella: "Yeah, absolutely!" Edward: "She already ate."Rosalie Hale (Nikki Reed): [crushes the salad bowl she's holding] "Perfect!" Bella: "Yeah. It's just that I know... I know you guys don't eat." Esme: "Of course. That's very considerate of you."Edward: "Just ignore Rosalie. I do." Rosalie: "Yeah! Let's just keep pretending like this isn't dangerous for all of us." Bella: "I would never tell anybody anything." Dr. Carlisle Cullen (Peter Facinelli): "She knows that." Emmett Cullen (Kellan Lutz): "Yeah, well the problem is... you two have gone public now so..." Esme: "Emmett!" Rosalie: "No, she should know. The entire family will be implicated if this ends badly." Bella: "Badly as in... I become the meal."

'Twilight'

"You are my life now." — Edward

'New Moon'

"Please don't make me choose. Because it will be him, every time. It's always been him." — Bella

'New Moon'

"It's my birthday, can I ask for something? Kiss me." — Bella

'New Moon'

Bella: "I'm coming with you!" Edward: "Bella, I don't want you to come with me." Bella: "You... You don't want me?" Edward: "No." Bella: "Well, that changes things. A lot. What happened with Jasper was nothing." Edward: "Nothing compared to what could've happened. I promise never to put you through anything like this ever again. This is the last time you'll ever see me."

'New Moon'

"Alice. You've disappeared. Like everything else. Now who else can I talk to? I'm lost. When you left, and he left, you took everything with you. But the absence of him is everywhere I look. It's like a huge hole has been punched through my chest. But In a way, I'm glad. The pain is the only reminder that he was real. That you all were." — Bella

'New Moon'

Bella: "Woah, you're buff. What are you, like 16?" Jacob (Taylor Lautner): "Age is just a number, baby. What are you now, 40?"

'New Moon'

Jacob: "Tell me something... You like me, right? [Bella nods] And you think I'm sorta beautiful?" Bella: "Jake, please don't do this." Jacob: "Why?" Bella: "Because you're about to ruin everything. And I need you." Jacob: "Well, I've got loads of time. I'm not going to give up." Bella: "I don't want you to. But that's just because I don't want you to go anywhere. It's really selfish. You know, I'm not like a car that you can fix up. I'm never going to run right." Jacob: "It's because of him, isn't it? Look, I know what he did to you. But Bella, I would never, ever do that. I won't ever hurt you. I promise. I won't let you down. You can count on me."

'New Moon'

Bella: "So, you're a werewolf?"Jacob: "Yeah, last time I checked."

'New Moon'

Jared (Bronson Pelletier): "These are trade secrets! She runs with vampires!" Bella: "You can't really run with vampires. They're very fast." Jared: "Well, we're faster. Freaked out yet?" Bella: "You're not the first monsters I've met." Sam Uley (Chaske Spencer): "Jake's right, you're good with weird."

'New Moon'

Alice Cullen (Ashley Greene): "Bella it's Edward, he thinks you're dead!"Bella: "What?" Alice: "He's going to the Volturi. He wants to die, too."

'New Moon'

Edward: "Heaven." Bella: [Bella runs into Edward in attempt to get in back in the shadows] "You have to move! Open your eyes, look at me. I'm alive. You have to move!" [Edward grabs Bella and goes into the shadows] Edward: "You're here!" Bella: "I'm here." Edward: "You're alive!" Bella: "Yes... I needed you to see me once. You had to know that I was alive. You didn't need to feel guilty about it. I can let you go now." Edward: "I could never let go of you. I just couldn't live in a world where you didn't exist." Bella: "[puzzled] But you said... " Edward: "I lied. I had to lie, and you believed me so easily." Bella: "Because it doesn't make sense for you to love me. I'm nothing... Human. Nothing." Edward: "Bella, you're everything to me. Everything."

'New Moon'

Edward: "The Volturi are the closest thing my world has to royalty... they enforce the law." Bella: "Vampires have laws?"

'New Moon'

Aro (Michael Sheen): "What a happy surprise! So Bella is alive after all. Isn't that wonderful? I love a happy ending... they are so rare."

'New Moon'

Edward: "I just have one condition if you want me to do it myself." Bella: "What's the condition?" Edward: "And then forever." Bella: "That's what I'm asking." Edward: [dramatic pause] "Marry me, Bella."

'Eclipse'

"When we were 5, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our answers were things like, astronauts, president... or in my case, a princess. When we were ten, they asked again. We answered, a rock star, cowboy, or in my case, a gold medalist. But now that we're grown up, they want a serious answer. Well, how about this. Who the hell knows? This isn't the time to make hard and fast decisions; this is a time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere. Fall in love... a lot. Major in philosophy, because there's no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind, and change it again, because nothing's permanent. So, make as many mistakes as you can. That way, someday, when they ask what we want to be, we won't have to guess... we'll know." — Jessica

'Eclipse'

"You'll always be my Bella... [pauses] My Bella just less fragile." —Edward

'Eclipse'

Charlie Swan (Billy Burke): "What's going on?" Jacob: "I kissed Bella. [pause] And she broke her hand punching my face. It was a complete misunderstanding."

'Eclipse'

Bella: [about her kissing Jacob] "You saw?" Edward: "No. But Jacob's thoughts are pretty loud." Bella: "I don't know what happened." Edward: "You love him." Bella: "I love you more." Edward: "I know."

'Eclipse'

Edward: [about Jacob] "Doesn't he own a shirt?"

'Eclipse'

Jasper Hale (Jackson Rathbone): "The two most important things to remember are first, never let them get their arms around you, they'll crush you instantly. And second, never go for the obvious kill. They'll be expecting that. And you will lose."

'Eclipse'

Bree (Jodelle Ferland): "What did you do to me? I, I'm so...[clutches throat] Riley (Xavier Samuel): "I know. We'll get you someone to drink. Just try not to get killed. I'm gonna need numbers."

'Eclipse'

Jacob: "Imprinting on someone is like... Like when you see her... Everything changes. All of a sudden, its not gravity holding you to the planet. It's her... Nothing else matters."

'Eclipse'

Edward: [with Jake in the tent,as Bella sleeps between them] "This might sound odd, but I'm glad you're here." Jacob: "Meaning, as much as I'd love to kill you, I'm glad she's warm. Let's face it, I am hotter than you." Edward: "If we weren't natural enemies, and you weren't trying to steal my reason for existing, I might actually like you." Jacob: "Well, if you weren't planning on sucking the life out of the girl I love, I might... [laughs] No. Not even then."

'Eclipse'

Charlie Swan: "Well, his sister I like." Bella: "Alice? Yeah, she's great. Hey Dad, I was wondering, why didn't you get re-married, after mom?" Charlie Swan: "Uh, I don't know... uh I guess I haven't met the right gal. Why?" Bella: "I don't know. I thought you just maybe gave up on the whole institution of it, of marriage... But do you think there's any value in it?" Charlie Swan: "Yep. Yeah, marriage has value... when your older, much older. Like your mother, uh, seemed to work out fine for her the second time around, later in life." Bella: "Yeah I guess." Charlie Swan: "I mean, you definitely don't want to have to get married cause your not... um careful." Bella: "What?" Charlie Swan: "You know what I'm talking about. There's... things that you need to think about if your going to be... physically intimate..." Bella: "Okay, don't have 'the talk,'please." Charlie Swan: "It's just as embarrassing for me as it is for you." Bella: "I doubt that. And don't bother, cause Mom bet you to it like 10 years ago." Charlie Swan: "Well, you didn't have a boyfriend 10 years ago." Bella: "I'm sure things work the same way." Charlie Swan: "Alright, so, you guys are taking precaution?" Bella: "Dad, please just don't worry about... that. Edward is... old school." Charlie Swan: "Old school, great. What's that, like a code for something?Bella: "Oh my God, dad, I'm a virgin!" Charlie Swan: "Ah, okay... glad we covered that." Bella Swan: [runs up stairs] "Me too!" Charlie Swan: "Virgin... I'm liking Edward a little more now."

'Eclipse'

Edward: "I'm from a different era, things were a lot less complicated. And if I'd met you back then, I would've courted you, would've taken you on chaperoned strolls, ice tea on the porch. I may have stolen a kiss or two, but only after asking your father's permission — and I would've got down on knee. [kneels] And I would've presented you with a ring. [opens box with the ring and places it in her hand] This is my mother's. Isabella Swan, I promise to love you every moment of forever. Would you do me the extraordinary honor of marrying me?" Bella: "Yes."

'Eclipse'

Bella: "This wasn't a choice between you and Jacob. It was between who I should be and who I am. I've always felt out of step. Like literally stumbling through my life. I've never felt normal, because I'm not normal, and I don't wanna be. I've had to face death and loss and pain in your world, but I've also never felt stronger, like more real, more myself, because it's my world too. It's where I belong."Edward: "So it's not just about me?" Bella: "No. [pause] Sorry."

Mariah's Twins in 'Christmas' Music Video

Posted: 17 Nov 2011 11:00 AM PST

Mariah Carey talked exclusively with "Extra's" AJ Calloway at her home, shooting "When Christmas Comes," her music video duet with John Legend -- which also features her 5-month old twins, Moroccan and Monroe.

"'When Christmas Comes,' people need to hear the song; I think John Legend swung it home!" gushed Mariah. "I think the fact that the babies are in the video is great."

Calloway commented on how svelte Carey looked after losing 70 pounds on the Jenny Craig weight loss program. She smiled, saying her pregnancy was "tough... having that much weight, my bones were not used to it."

But she proudly proclaimed, "I have my clavicle back. I thought I had lost my bones forever. I couldn't find them."

The Mariah Carey/John Legend duet, "When Christmas Comes," is coming soon.

SET VISIT: Journey 2: The Mysterious Island - Part 1

Posted: 17 Nov 2011 09:11 AM PST

It's early December 2010, and I'm riding in a van full of journalists through Hawaii's Waimea Falls Park, when we pass a bed of flowers... which are taller than most buildings in Los Angeles. That was the first thing I saw on the set of Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, the 3D sequel to 2008's Journey to the Center of the Earth. The flowers are quite a proper metaphor for the movie as a whole, since everything is bigger this time around, most notably the cast. Josh Hutcherson reprises his role as Sean Anderson, the only returning cast member from Journey to the Center of the Earth, but this time he is surrounded by the likes of Michael Caine, Vanessa Hudgens, Kristin Davis, Luis Guzm&#225n, and Dwayne Johnson, who dwarfs everyone on the set the way those fake flowers tower over the lush scenery.

If you haven't seen trailer for Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, lets break down the story first. Sean Anderson (Josh Hutcherson) sets off with his stepfather, Hank Parsons (Dwayne Johnson) to find his grandfather (Michael Caine), who sent a distress signal our from an uncharted island which may in fact be the Mysterious Island from Jules Verne's stories. When they arrive, with the help of father-daughter tour guide team (Vanessa Hudgens and Luis Guzm&#225n), they quickly learn that this is, in fact, the Mysterious Island, where everything small, in real life, is big on the island, and vice versa. They all must overcome the incredible obstacles the island throws at them to get out of there in one piece.

One of the actors we had the chance to speak with on the set was the legendary Michael Caine, the adventurous grandfather trying to find a way off the island. Here's what he had to say below, which includes some unique anecdotes about directors Christopher Nolan and David Lean.

Actor Michael Caine

Can you talk about how you were drawn to the project?

Michael Caine: I now have three new grandchildren, so I wanted to do a family film. I've done adventure films, but not for small children. This is really fancy. I mean, this afternoon, we were riding around on bumblebees. My grandsons are going to say to their friends, 'Can your granddad do that?'

Is that something you think about now? Whether you'll enjoy your films with them?

Michael Caine: Oh, I've done that for ages. I don't really work a lot now, so I only do something I'm going to enjoy for a specific reason. I work about once every two years, and it's been about two movies since the last movie I did, Harry Brown. This is very cute and quite clever. I was amazed at how clever the script was.&#160

Harry Brown is probably a less typical grandfather movie...

Michael Caine: Oh, yeah. I didn't even let my daughter watch that one, and she was pregnant at the time. I said I didn't want her to see it, let alone the kids.&#160

How challenging is the physical stuff in this movie for you?

Michael Caine: Well, I'm 77, but I live on the side of a hill anyway, in England, and I walk about four or five miles a day. I don't smoke or do any of those silly things, so it's not very challenging for me, physically. I take care of myself very well, and whenever I look around, there's always a chair next to me in case I fall down.&#160

Dwayne was talking about how excited he was to work with you. He's a very physical actor, but he's also a very charismatic actor. How has he been as a co-star in the film?

Michael Caine: Oh, he's wonderful. He's also the nicest man, you know. The most amazing thing, I thought, about Dwayne, is he has a bodyguard. Why would Dwayne need a bodyguard? I need a bodyguard, he doesn't need a bodyguard. And he's bigger than his bodyguard. But he's lovely, and great to work with. He's great and very professional.

Are you a fan of 3D? Do you like the 3D in this?

Michael Caine: I've never seen a 3D movie. This is a couple of firsts for me. I'm a real grandfather, I've only been a grandfather for a couple of years, but I'm playing a grandfather for the first time. And I'm doing a 3D movie, which is very modern and odd since being a grandfather is very old, and the other one, 3D, is very new. I've seen myself in 3D down on the monitors there. It's good. I look even uglier (Laughs).

Have you found that shooting in 3D affects your process at all?

Michael Caine: No, not at all.

You have entered into an iconic status as an actor. Do you feel that, when you meet people and encounter film fans, they have this wild affection for you?

Michael Caine: Oh, yeah. As I said, I don't have a bodyguard. People regard me as being like them, so there's never any animosity. When I meet people, they act like they know me as a friend, because I don't play people like James Bond. I play guys just like you.

When you work with younger actors like Vanessa and Josh, do they have to get over a certain intimidation factor, early on?

Michael Caine: Not a whole lot of that goes on. I'm very aware of anything like that. I like to work out of relaxation, so if I sense any nerves on the set, I immediately tell jokes or other things to relax a set. Sometimes, actors like to work out of tension, but the basis of Stanislavski, the one line that struck me was, 'The rehearsal is the work, and the performance is the relaxation.' All the tears and everything go into the rehearsal.

Is there an expectation from some of the other actors who look to you as a mentor?

Michael Caine: No. When I was a younger actor, I always used to ask old actors and successful actors for advice. Every single one of them said, 'Give it up.' So, I say to young actors, 'Don't even ask me for advice, and if any other old actor gives you advice, don't listen.' The worst thing about advice is it's free. If you have to pay for it, then it might be worth something.&#160

What still gets you excited every day when you show up on set to go to work? What winds you up?

Michael Caine: It's like a sort of drug, in a way. It's getting it absolutely right and knowing you couldn't do it any better. If you get to that stage, it's great. You get to where it's very amusing, which is what we were doing all day yesterday down here. Dwayne and I had a lot of fun with the scene down there yesterday, which was completely different than the way it was written. It's the same words, just coming from a different point of view.&#160

Do you have to put the same kind of work into this as you would with any other role?

Michael Caine: No, it's not bloody King Lear (Laughs). You have to put in the attention to detail in what you're doing, because everything is for effect. It's either comedy or drama or something is going to come up. I disappeared behind a load of flowers, but i don't know if they're going to do the bumblebee scene here because I think it's done in green screen. They're worrying how to get up this cliff, and I say I have a great idea and I disappear into all those flowers. Then, eventually, he comes up riding a bumblebee and he says, 'You've all got to get one. When you mount them, it's very easy, but don't look at them in the eye.' It's comedy and comedy is very difficult to do, to time right. It's more technical than emotional.&#160

Can you talk about taking on less films these days? There seems to be one filmmaker in particular who seems to get you every single time... (Christopher Nolan) I know what I'm attracted to in his work, but as a collaborator, what is it that keeps bringing you back?

Michael Caine: Oh, he's a wonderful guy. I love working with him. He's very secretive too. He lived near me when he did the first Batman, and he came around one morning with a script. He said, 'I want you to play Alfred, the butler, in Batman Begins. I knew who the character was, and he said, 'Do you want to do it?' I said, 'That would be great. I've never done anything like this.' I said I would read it and I'll call you Monday, this is Sunday morning. He said, 'Oh no, I'm staying. I'll have a cup of tea with your wife.' Then he took the script away. He wouldn't even let me keep the script. But he's wonderful. I think he's the new David Lean. I know David very well, I wasn't in one of his movies, but I did all the back heads of the screen tests for Doctor Zhivago. Julie Christie, who was a friend of mine, went up to play the part. She said, 'Come up and play the other part with me for the screen tests.' So I went and Lean said, 'Will you stay on?' He gave me a free hotel room in Madrid. He said, 'Would you stay on and do the rest of them?' So I stayed on and did the rest. I've always studied Lean's work. I saw in The Dark Knight, if you think in terms of an action director, and that opening scene with the bank robbery, with the masks and everything, and then you see him directing actors and Heath's opening soliloquy and ending soliloquy, it's fantastic. And he writes this stuff too. He's an extraordinarily intelligent man and director and he doesn't shout or scream or anything. You wouldn't notice him on the set.

Are there people that you show these scripts to and get feedback from?

Michael Caine: Yeah, my wife. I trust her completely. She can keep the scripts overnight.

One of the things that surprised me about Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, was that it was almost an open set. Waimea Falls Park is open to the public, and, while tourists weren't walking through shots or anything like that, passers-by could walk right by video village and other crew areas which were set up. Another thing that surprised me was the wicked bursts of rain throughout the day. It was still gorgeous weather, mid-80s with a slight breeze, but every so often, there would be these random blasts of rain, which would last for usually no longer than five minutes. When we finally got down to the shooting area, it was quite incredible to watch the crew cover up all the equipment, like a rain-prevention version of a NASCAR pit crew. While I'm sure that had to be annoying throughout the duration of a big-budget shoot, the crew were all certainly on their toes throughout the day I was there.

We also got to speak with Josh Hutcherson and Vanessa Hudgens during a break from filming, and the duo were still in very high spirits, even after a very long day. Here's what they had to say below.

Actors Josh Hutcherson and Vanessa Hudgens

Is it true that both you've been injured on set all ready?

Josh Hutcherson: Slightly. Not injured. Hurt, I'd say. Injury I think is a long term thing. We were doing a scene at this place called Eternity Beach, which is a beautiful location and there's this little cave that we kind of go in and check out. We got into the cave and did that scene and cut and coming back out they were like, 'Watch your heads?' I was like, 'Oh, I'm not that tall. I'm not going to hit on anything. But I stepped on a little bump, I guess and then I hit the top of my head so hard I fell straight to the ground. I didn't remember the fall and stuff. I just remember hitting my head and then being on the ground. Then Dwayne (Johnson) was like, 'Oh, my God, are you okay?'

Vanessa Hudgens: I was a few feet away and heard a massive thump. That's never a good thing. Then we were shooting a scene down on the same beach and there are just lava rocks everywhere. I was walking backwards. Very smart. Before I knew it, I was on the floor. I got up and brushed it off like nothing happened and then later on someone pointed at my leg and said, 'Is that real blood or fake blood?' Now I have a beautiful scar to show for it. We'll always remember this movie. It'll always be a part of me.

Were you guys glad to get into the jungle and do the down and dirty stuff?

Josh Hutcherson: Totally. It's really fun. We've been covered in mud now for most of the entire movie, which sounds like fun at the beginning, but then after about day thirty of being in mud it's like, 'I'm sort of over it.' But we've been filming in all these beautiful places and it's usually really nice out. For me, I'm personally a huge fan of rainy weather. So, I'm loving this right now. The whole movie crew hates it. I'm like, 'This is great.' They're like, 'Yeah, screw you.' But it's been really great. I love rainy weather.

Do you feel a big sense of responsibility to this film now that you're sort of the sole one from the original?

Josh Hutcherson: Not really. I mean, I'm really proud to be the returning one, but the cast that we have now is such a cool hodgepodge of different cultures coming together with Michael Caine, Dwayne (Johnson), Vanessa, and Luis Guzm&#225n, this kind of whole weird, like, 'What? He's in it and he's in it?' So, it's this cool mix and I'm really proud of it, for sure.

Luis is a great character actor. How is your relationship with him on and off screen and how did you guys work on that?

Vanessa Hudgens: He is unlike anybody I've ever met before. He's just so funny. He's always cracking jokes and is always doing improv, which is a lot of fun. He's just an easy guy to get along with. You talk to him for a few minutes and you can't help but love him.

Josh Hutcherson: He's so funny. Brad (Peyton), our director will give him some direction and he's like, 'I'll think about it. I don't know.' It's so funny.

Does he allow a lot of improv on the set?

Josh Hutcherson: Yeah. He loves to go for it.

How much do you think they'll keep?

Josh Hutcherson: I think a fair amount of it. Sometimes it gets goofy and way off track and that's when it's really fun, but they'll never use some of it. A lot of times, I think, they'll use some.

This is the second really physical film for you in a row. Did Sucker Punch and all the training you did for that get you ready for this?

Vanessa Hudgens: It's completely different. That was extremely choreographed, with all the fight sequences and firing guns. There's definitely no guns in this one.

Josh Hutcherson: Except for The Rock's arms. I love calling him The Rock.

Vanessa Hudgens: We're riding bees in this one. So, no, it's different. This is fun. This is just kind of like running around and having a good time. It doesn't requuire as much.

How is the action in this one compared to the action that you did in the first film?

Josh Hutcherson: It's actually oddly kind of similar. Some of the set pieces, or not the set pieces, but throughout Journey 1 there are similarities to this that kind of parallel each other. Riding the bees is kind of like being on the mine cars and being chased by the dinosaur is like being chased by the lizard. So, there are things that are similar, and so the sets themselves are in a way kind of familar.

How quickly did you adjust to the fact that you're sharing scenes with Michael Caine?

Vanessa Hudgens: Oh, my God, yeah.

Josh Hutcherson: There's a scene we've shot, we finish it today and started shooting it yesterday, and he's so amazing.

Vanessa Hudgens: Epic.

Josh Hutcherson: He comes up and he gets all serious and intense and I'm like, 'Oh, wow. Sorry.'

Vanessa Hudgens: I get genuinely distracted by him in scenes. They'll be having a scene together and I'm watching and I just get so sucked in and I'm like, 'Oh, snap out of it.' He's amazing and I adore him.

Josh Hutcherson: We've decided that we're going to ask him to adopt us as grandchildren.

Vanessa Hudgens: We're just waiting for the right moment.

Josh Hutcherson: You have to ease into that one.

How is it working with the new 3D on this one? They said this time it's a little less obtrusive, more streamlined?

Josh Hutcherson: It is. I mean, 3D, definitely, is an amazing technology that's come so far since the beginning of it, but definitely still has a ways to go, too. I think it's definitely a work in progress and we're learning new things everyday. Sometimes it takes a little bit longer to get set up because sometimes the 3D will go down and you have to figure out how to fix it and it's all computer stuff. So, they have this genius with computers on set that's always fixing everything, but it's amazing technology. The fact that you can actually sit down...and now they have 3D TV's. So, you can actually watch video playback in 3D, right there through like a TV screen. It's so cool.

Because of the pressure that shooting in 3D brings, do you feel pressure to make sure that every single take you do you get right so that it's technically right?

Josh Hutcherson: Well, there are times, definitely, where after you do a take and you messed it up and do the next take, they're like...the camera will go down and they're like, 'Oh, God. We should've gotten it last time,' but there's not that much added pressure, honestly.

Is this one going towards a different type of audience than the first film or will it be for the same audience?

Josh Hutcherson: Very similar, a very similar audience. Families with maybe ten, nine year olds and up, I'd say. What's cool about these movies is that there is some humor in there that I think older people will find funny, too. So, it's not more like another animated movie where you take your kids to it. I think that adults will actually enjoy it as well.

Would you be willing to do a third one of this?

Josh Hutcherson: Yeah, we'll see, if Michael Caine is in it.

You may have noticed in the trailer, there is a scene where Josh and Vanessa are riding a large bumblebee. The scene we got to watch them shoot was right before that. It starts out with Michael Caine leading Vanessa Hudgens, Josh Hutcherson, Luis Guzm&#225n, and Dwayne Johnson into a clearing, as they realize they have to get to the top of an enormous cliff. Michael Caine has a solution, though, as he runs off into the brush. Although we don't actually see it, he is supposed to come up riding this enormous bumblebee as a solution to their cliff-scaling problem. If you can't get a kick out of Michael Caine riding a giant, imaginary bumblebee, then I don't know what you can get a kick out of.

That wraps up Part 1 of my set visit for Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, which arrives in theaters nationwide February 10. Be sure to check back for Part 2 of my set visit, where we speak with Dwayne Johnson and director Brad Peyton.

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island comes to theaters February 10th, 2012 and stars Josh Hutcherson, Dwayne Johnson, Vanessa Hudgens, Michael Caine, Kristin Davis, Luis Guzmán, Fileena Bahris, Shelley Bassett. The film is directed by Brad Peyton.

Far From Home: Bands Named After Places They Aren't From

Naming a band is hard work. Pick the wrong one and you might toil in obscurity forever while the right name might net you attention from the right people. So why not take some inspiration from what's around you?

There's plenty to be said for the civic pride of naming your band after your hometown, especially if it evokes something of your music -- say, the jazzy rock of Chicago or the down-home twang of Alabama. But adopting the name of a place you've never even visited? That takes some real imagination and a little bit of guts.

So we did some research to find out why a whole slew of bands -- from Asia and Beirut to Of Montreal and Portugal, The Man -- have done just that.

Latest Star Trek 2 Villain Rumor, This Might Surprise You...

Posted: 17 Nov 2011 08:24 AM PST

Source: Think McFly Think Via Think McFly Think, here's the latest rumor about the Star Trek sequel. The Klingons play a prominent role in Star Trek 2. The angle, according to our sources, plays up them up as a Nomadic sect of warrior aliens causing trouble for the Federation — think an intergalactic Taliban with their home-planet overrun by Tribbles. Yes, those Tribbles, here in the newly rebooted continuity viewed as "furry carnivorous creatures." Again, take this rumor with salt at the ready. The source is the same site that reported that Warner Bros. has a shortlist of screenwriters for the sequel to the new Superman movie. Still, I'm not going to 100% write-off the site until we see how their Superman news shakes out. The site also reports that Kahn will definitely not be in the movie. If this pans out, are you satisfied with Klingons and Tribbles for
