Casting Drama Better Than Any 'Twilight' Film

It's rare that celebrity gossip bleeds onto reputable websites, which is why I find this so incredibly fascinating. Could this be an attempt to grab traffic off from rabid Twilight fans, or maybe it's about time someone spoke up against Hollywood and the BS politics that go around behind the scenes? Either way, the drama over the recasting of "Victoria" in the third installment of the "Twilight" franchise (Eclipse) is quite possibly the most interesting story going around because star Rachelle Lefevre, who was replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard, is saying she lost out on great job opportunities she turned down so she could do the role, while Summit claims she has "a lack of cooperative spirit." He said, she said. Click here to read all about it at Variety.

Does anyone know of any real horror websites that don't constantly cover this PG-13 Dawson's Creek with fangs trash? I don't know why this website is posting news for overweight teenage girls who watch mtv. I thought this was a horror website.

well, it should be obvious, it's related to the genre (vampires). It might not be what you like, hell it's not even what I like, but it's ties to the genre are obvious. It's not a straight horror movie, but then neither is army of darkness.

My life would not be complete if I didn´t hear regular news/updates about the Twilight films.

I hope Horror doesn't go down the drain. We're being over-run by shitty films like this.

Well, it's certainly the most interesting "Twilight" story going around, but I don't give a rat's hindquarters about "Twilight" so that means nothing. I did sit thru the first one to see what the fuss was about. The closest thing to a bright spot the movie had was Rachelle Lefevre, who I remember from "Big Wolf On Campus." (hey, I'm a nut for werewolf stuff, okay?) Pretty obvious that the studio, now dealing with a hit franchise, decided to drop a relatively unknown actress for more of a 'name' for the film where her character apparently has a much bigger role.

Again I will ask: Do you ever read of any of these comments BD? No one cares about this bullshit pseudo emo-vampire shitty series, stop covering it. You are making a lot of loyal readers angry because you are constantly posting about this shit!

Okay, so how much are is the studio paying you to try generate as much publicty to this new film as possible, because I see no other reason, even the ones you've posted to be reporting this like any regulars at this site would care.

I think they do read our comments but I doubt they give 2 shits about our opinions, it's all about what they get paid for...pretty sad. I goto a Horror site to read Horror news. If I wanted to read Twilight news, I'd goto MTV.com. BD is shitting on the Horror genre and it's fans by supporting this teen beat shit.

I wish people would stop calling these vampires, vampires. They glitter in the sun, don't have fangs, can't be killed unless torn apart and then burned, and pretty much abandons every single rule that makes a vampire what it is. I suppose you could "try" to defend it by saying, "Oh but vampires aren't real and therefore they can be mutated to anything the author wants". Well, ok, but if you want to play like then can't you label everything a vampire? If I write a story about a magical unicorn with no horn, is it really a unicorn? Or just a magical horse? If I write a story about a caveman that is super duper hairy and call him a werewolf, is he a werewolf, or a caveman? Hell there's virtually no difference between a zombie and a vampire is you want to play stupid like that. Let's rename Dawn of the Dead, Dawn of the vampires. Sound like fun? And at the end of the day, even if they WERE vampires, would that make it a horror movie? Let's face it, the entire story is a drama/tweenangsty/emo/romance. There's nothing horrific about it. It's a sad excuse for prepubescent erotic fanfic that some dumbshit writer was lucky enough to publish. If this is horror just because it has "vampires" in it, then so is Harry Potter for having witches, and Monsters Inc. for having monsters.

WHO CARES? How does this story relate in ANY WAY to any horror news? The "Twilight" series is not "Bloody" but it IS very "Disgusting." I don't come on this site to read about over-hyped teen drama bullshit.

Why does BD keep posting stories? My guess is that it's because they get tons of views. Hell , all of you are complaining about it, yet you all clicked on the story. That's all they care about. If you just ignored it and they never got any replies or views, they'd stop covering it.

I hope Mr D actually feels a twang of pain each time he has to post one of these stories on Twilight. I really hope so since this is the furthest you can get from "Horror".

I think that the homophobic slurs like that used by CrittersWrangler01 should get people banned here.

"Does anyone know of any real horror websites that don't constantly cover this PG-13 Dawson's Creek with fangs trash? I don't know why this website is posting news for overweight teenage girls who watch mtv. I thought this was a horror website" They didn't even have fangs. Pussiest vampire flick I ever saw. Was waiting for Blade to pop up and take out all of them with one flick of his sword. Would have made that movie so much better. I'm still furious I rented it.

it's hilarious that every time a TWILIGHT story comes up all of you who keep getting their panties in a bunch. does it hurt you in any way? NO. did TWILIGHT rape & murder your family? NO!! if you don't like (or if you HATE) the story skip over it for christ's sake. SOME people might be interested in the info (and you can say it has NOTHING to do with anything horror...well, sudsy vampire soap opera or not...it involves VAMPIRES.) grow up. and i agree CrittersWrangler...just come out of the closet for christ's sake. calling someone a FAGGOT (being homophobic) is a clear cut sign of latent homosexuality. feel better?
