'Bel Ami' Fan Pictures & Account

@Thea1992 was at the 'Bel Ami' set earlier this week. She shared her account and pictures she took that day:

So here is my little report on the Bel Ami set on the 6th April.
My cousin, sister and I got there about 11am. There were only a few people there 50-80 and you could watch from both sites of the borderlines. After standing at one site for 10 Minutes and asking everyone if he was already there, my cousin decided to take us to the other site of the Set. So we had to walk all around the Basilica to get there. However we soon found out that less people were watching from there and we had a perfect view. When Robert came my cousin took me into his neck, so i was the highest person and i could take some pictures. Unfortunately he got tired really soon so i decided to climb at the stone fence of the basilica, because it was for certain that with my 1,60m i wouldn't see much of Robert if i stayed on the ground.Everyone was really nice and they even helped me climb the stone fence. Rob came and got into the black carriage. He was in there for a few minutes and jumped out again, went to his trailer and came back. There was also another carriage with two white horses and another actress was sitting in there.However Rob came back and got his hair done quickly. After that they started to shoot the scene where the horse carrige arrives at the steps and a woman climbs out of the carriage and runs up to the door. Then you could see Rob getting out of his black carriage and open a umbrella while running after the woman. And as you read he opened an umbrella, which means it was a rainy scene and, well, we all got wet! Not that it wasn't raining already that day but it seems like they nedded more. However that's when i got the second shower of the day. They repeated the scene three times. And as far as i remember after the second time Rob went up to a man, who i guess was the director, and talked to him. Then the clock of the Basilica started to ring and they had to stop filming. It was already 12 o'clock and Rob went to his trailer. Then they shot another scene without Rob. It was basically just some people walking infront of the steps. We waited for a half hour for Rob to come back but he didn't so i decided to leave and let someone else take my place on the fence. LOL All in all it was a very interesting day and from what i could see, Rob looked really handsome in his old fashioned clothes. I also have to mention that i have never met nicer Fans than there. We chatted and laughed quite a lot, and there was absolutely no rivalry and no one pushed. :)

Thanks for sharing Thea!

Videos & Pics - Robert Pattinson Today Show 11/09

This week we've been doing some spring cleaning, and posting some of our never before seen pictures and videos from the 'New Moon' premiere. In case you missed this was from the LA premiere of 'New Moon' (good stuff @ about 1:10). Next up, Rob signing and taking pics with fans outside of the Today show. (Pics not great, but promise they will get better by the time I post pics of Rob during 'Remember Me' promo week).

*Swoon-worthy moment* at about :40

HQ Scans/Translation - Robert Pattinson Special

Our lovely follower @LauraDijkman, picked up this booklet at a Dutch cinema when she went to see 'Remember Me' this week. She shared scans and translated highlights of the articles inside. (the answers and info seem familiar, bits and pieces of other interviews so don't take it word by word please) Thank you Laura!

Interview RP special, page 2.
From child to star.
Robert Thomas Pattinson was born on May 13 1986 in London and was, from a young age,
a headstrong and curious little guy.
His elder sisters Lizzie and Victoria were secretly bummed that they didn't get a baby sister,
it didn't stop them from using little Rob as a dress-up doll.
"Until I was 12 I was walking around like a barbie doll and my sisters told everyone my
name was Claudia", tells the actor.
He wasn't popular in school at that time, his popularity came at the age of 14. "I went to a
new school, put some gel in my hair and from one day to the other girls noticed me".
Not just the girls discovered his looks, modeling agencies also liked the tall guy with the
androgynous look.
This career did not last long though, because the intelligent Pattinson soon got bored
between the shallow models and decided to join a theater company. "Or more my dad
decided this, because I was kind of shy. He stepped up to a few pretty girls we ran into in a
restaurant and asked: "where are you from". They said: "from the drama club", on which
my father said: "Rob, you have to go there, this is really something for you".
His first big play was an instant success, because he was discovered by an agent who
arranged a a part for him in Vanity Fair (with Reese Witherspoon) and after that the Harry
Potter movies. However, Rob's big breakthrough came when he was cast as the vampire
Edward Cullen in The Twilight Saga.
"I was actually afraid to end up in another teenage movie, but then I met Kristen Stewart at
the audition, the actress on whom I had a bit of a crush in my teens because she's so
talented. The moment I heard she would play the female lead instead of a bimbo, I
knew it would all work out fine".
Rob was right, because Twilight and the sequel New Moon were a huge cinema success, and
his appearance immediately caused hysterical scenes comparable to Leonardo DiCaprio in
Titanic. Something by the way the actor was not waiting for at all. "If I had known that this
movie would bring so much crazyness, I don't know if I would have said "yes" to the
Twilight Saga. I never asked to be a posterboy".
With deeper roles in movies such as Remember Me and Bel Ami Robert hopes to movie his
career in a more serious direction. "I can only hope for a resume like Leonardo DiCaprio. My
wish: an Oscar before I'm 30 years old. But I still have a long way to go ...".

5 questions to Robert Pattinson, page 5.

1. How does it feel to be Hollywood's most wanted actor?
Strange. Scary. Shocking. And also a bit overwhelming to be honest. At this moment it is too
much, everywhere I go, girls are screaming or fainting. I don't understand why, because I
am a normal guy who is not at all doing his best to be noticed. And really; I'm not as sexy
as Brad Pitt?

2. What is the most bizarre thing you've encountered with a fan?
On the set of Twilight one of our errand-guys put a baby in my arms and asked if I could
pose. The mother had given the child along with him, while she was standing at the gates a
kilometer away. I thought that was pretty sick; you don't give your baby to a stranger just
to score a photo of your idol?

3. Do you never behave as the big superstar who trashes hotel rooms and demands strange things?
Oh yes I love throwing things around in my hotel room haha. No, seriously, I think I've stayed
pretty normal, I am much to down to earth to make crazy demands. Well, except for a
private chauffeur, but that is only because I am a disaster on the road and others even
forbid me to drive.

4. What is true about the story that you and your New Moon co-star Kristen Stewart are an item? Kristen and I have a special bond together, she is the sweetest, smartest and strongest girl I know. If we have a relationship I would rather not say, because my words get twisted around too much and can be "old news" by the time this interview is printed. I've been linked to a lot of actresses in Hollywood, most of them I find too silly and shallow that I would not want to date them.

5. Is it easy to go on a date now that you're famous?
Easy? On the contrary, girls have such high expectations of me that I don't even dare to
date out of fear of embarassing myself.
I can never live up to the image that the media have created, I am not that "hunk". Besides
that there is always the fear that women only want to date me because I'm famous, and
with a little bad luck they will go straight to the gossip press afterwards.

Robert Pattinson's 3-D Transformation

With all the speculation going on about whether 'Breaking Dawn' will get the 3-D treatment, we were intrigued when we caught artist @d_blair's post about Rob Monday:

"Modeling Robert Pattinson getting agged.... Spending too much time re-topologizing the face because his features are hard to nail down."

We asked him if he could say what the project was about and share a preview. Desmond got back to us today, with these great pictures of the Robert Pattinson 3-D transformation he's working on as part of his personal Demo reel.

So here we couldn't help thinking of Leo in 'The Man in the Iron Mask'..

Anyway, we hope to get a glimpse of the final product, and get a bit of more insight from @d_blair on how he accomplished it. We'll keep you posted!

Old/New Videos of Rob w/Fans at LA 'NM' Premiere

Consider this, the "better late than never" week at RobPattzNews. With so much going on daily in the world of Rob news, we hadn't been able to share (up until now) our videos and pictures from the 'New Moon' premiere in LA and New York, plus 'Remember Me' coverage from New York. No more procrastinating. Here's our first two little clip from the Los Angeles premiere of 'New Moon' - *Ear plugs suggested.* Video was right before he went in for THE interview with Ryan Seacrest and a little clip afterward. Fun stuff (screaming) starts at around 1:10. Oh.. and watch for the lucky girls that get a hug from him on the red carpet.



And here's the short clip of him leaving Ryan's booth.. after interview was.. ehh.. cut short.



We'll be posting the rest of our "better late than never" coverage throughout the week!

Rob not attending Paris premiere of 'Remember Me'

Earlier this week, word began spreading on twitter that Rob and Emilie would be attending the Paris premiere of 'Remember Me' April 6. The rumors began when French online movie site Allocine, posted a contest to win tickets to the premiere Tuesday.

Now our follower @Moonmela has received confirmation that indeed Rob will not be attending the Paris premiere. Melanie emailed the film's distributor (SND).

She translated their reply for us:

"Unluckily, nor Robert Pattison or Emilie de Ravin will be able to attend the RM Premiere in Paris on April 6th for planning reasons"

By planning, they likely mean scheduling conflicts. As we know from the daily news out of Budapest, Rob is busy wrapping up 'Bel Ami' in that country, while Emilie is working on the last season of 'Lost'.

We look forward to hearing what French fans thought of 'Remember Me' when it opens in theaters next week.

Thanks to @evenusia for sharing her pic from the Paris Metro.

Rob's Waxy Double Gets Some Action

Here it is. A first look at Rob's wax figure at Madame Tussauds in New York. Whether you think it's spot-on or way off, it represents the only chance many will have to get close to their idol.

So exactly how close can you get to wax Rob?.. well according to the museum's web site, fans who show up for the big unveil Thursday in New York and London, will have to keep things G-rated:

"They can even give him a kiss on the cheek which will be a big hit with his female followers!"

Right. If however that isn't enough for you, take a cue from some fans, who let's just say.. went way beyond second base:

Yeap that J-Lo's butt alright..

That may or may not be Mel Gibson.. but that's definitely a crotch grab.

And here's Britney putting on a peep show.. for both a fan, and grandma.

Jenna Jameson: that guy's face says it all.

Of course, Monica had to make an appearance.

Psst, Usher.. that woman has her hand down your pants.

And finally, mocking Spock!

We know Rob, if we were you we'd be horrified too. Just think.. better the wax figure than you. And be glad you're not Jennifer Aniston. What did they do to you Rachel?!

"You Belong With Me Edward Cullen" - Behind The Scenes

Dozens of 'Twilight' related fan-made videos hit YouTube daily. Most, are your run-of-the-mill "hot Edward pictures" "Bella & Edward forever" kind. But once in a while, a fan video comes along that really captures the passionate nature of fans of the series.

Such is the case with April's video: "You Belong With Me -Edward Cullen."




We were so taken by this fan-made video, that we decided to find out a little bit more about it by going to the source:

How did you come up with the idea to make this video, and how long did it take you to put it together (edit, such)?

April: "Anything 'Twilight' related was all over my room, so I decided to film something that would show that. It took me just one day to film, and about an hour-and-a-half to edit everything and post it on YouTube."

It looks like you had a partner in crime, filming some of the scenes. Can you tell us who that was, other than obviously cut-out Edward Cullen?

April: "My friend Khrisha came over to hang out and I was like "I'm making a funny music video wanna film me walking with Edward down the street?" Everything else was on a tripod. Khrisha only had the camera when I was walking down the street with my EdwarD Cullen cut-out."

Does your room really look like that?, and exactly how many posters of Rob are in there?

April: "Yes, my room looks exactly like that. Except more posters now. I started putting some up on the ceiling. Every wall is covered with a 'Twilight' related poster. I don't know exactly how many Rob posters I have. I seriously tried to count them, lost track at 2-hundred something."

What do your friends and family think about the video, and your dedication to all things 'Twilight?'

April: "My family doesn't really know I'm a HUGE 'Twilight' fan (RPN: really?!?). Only some cousins know. My friends are speechless and can't believe that's what's in my room. People talk about my video at my school."

What has been the feedback on YouTube to your video?

April: "I've been getting good comments, also many messages from different countries about what's in my room. Especially all the Twifans out there."

What is it about Edward that brings out this creative streak in you?

April: "Well, I've just been doing parody videos before twilight was big. It's just a hobby and since I know most people know about Twilight and the cast members, I decided to do a parody for it. I'm Team Edward so I had to make Edward Cullen the star. The song "You Belong With Me" by Taylor Swift was just perfect for my video because I'm saying I want to be with Edward and Bella shouldn't be with him. But I don't hate Bella. I like her. For twifans, their dreams are to be with someone like Edward or Jacob" (RPN: Edward.. it's always been Edward).

April's parodies also include "I kissed a Vampire" and "This is my Twilight Song."

Thanks for being such a good sport and answering our questions April!

'Remember Me': The Power Of The Fans

After months of waiting the day is finally here! - a big step in Rob's career, as 'Remember Me' opens nationwide. And the big question being asked in Hollywood, was set forth by Yahoo buzz's Michael Krumboltz: "Can he [Rob] carry a movie that doesn't feature bloodsucking studs? "Remember Me" is his chance."

Reviews have been mixed so far, with 'Remember Me' tracking in the 30% range on the Rotten Tomatoes site, (which is measured by reviews and changes as more come in).

But as most twilighters know, reviews mean little, when fans throw their support behind a film or series. And this is where you come in, as writer Will Fetters reminded us last weekend on his twitter page:

"alice is gonna open at 100M plus, it's a monster. we need all the help we can get next weekend so friends, family, pets - bring em out!"

That still remains the case this weekend. Entertainment Weekly's projections, put 'Remember Me' at number #3 - with an estimated take of $10 million dollars. I particularly liked the challenge they posed to fans:

"Even the online Twitter and Facebook movements created by tween girls to support Edward Cullen this weekend are not going to do much to pull in the box office cash."

While the article goes on to say $10 million is what Summit was expecting, I say let's beat the expectations. Let's show Hollywood that Rob can definitely, and without a doubt, open a movie other than 'Twilight'.. and big. Let's be there for Rob, because like he himself admits in an interview with Parade Magazine, it's all about the box office numbers:

"It's like a kind of a monster thing. The more people think they know you, the more you're identified with a certain kind of role. People always used to ask me about typecasting and I never had to really worry about it. You think people will judge you by your work. But the truth is, it's about whether the film you're in makes money or not. And if it's not making money, they're like, 'Oh, he's over."

And as fans know.. he's far from over. So let's do this! Show up for 'Remember Me' today, tomorrow, and as many times as you can. Let Rob know we're there for him when it counts.

Here's a list of 'Remember Me' reviews. My favorite still remains Newsweek's. It does contain heavy spoilers (as well as most of the other ones), but really brings perspective to the debate over the movie's content.

Roger Ebert, Hollywood Reporter, Variety, Associated Press, New York Times, USA Today,

LA Times, Houston Chronicle, Clear Channel, Miami Herald, HitFix, KC Tribune, MSN Movies,

Rope Of Silicon, The Star-Ledger, Rolling Stone, Film.com, Hollywood.com, Washington Post,

Entertainment Weekly, Herald.net, Cinema Blend, Austin Chronicle, Time Out Chicago,

Indie Wire, Chicago Tribune, E! Online, About.com, Movieline, Metromix, Philly.com, Buzznet,

The Huffington Post, The Desert Sun, Courier-Journal.com, Australia Herald Sun,

Orlando Sentinel, Take40, A.V.Club, Big Picture, Big Sound, Gordon and the Whale.com,

Mark Reviews Movies, STL Today, Brian Orndoff, TwiSuperfan, Worst Previews,

Entertainment.ie, Kurt Loder (MTV), PopcornBiz (NBC-Bay area), Hollywood Chicago,

International Business Times, Screencrave, The Scorecard Review, Winnipeg Free Press.

Finally, the pep talk of all pep talks. It comes courtesy of Rob, who recently mentioned in an interview that he couldn't get enough of William Wallace.

So I leave you with this call to action: Go! Watch! Conquer!.. for Remember Me!

RobPattzNews Review: 'Remember Me'

*'Remember Me' Poster in NYC Subway Station*

From its powerful beginning to its surprise ending, 'Remember Me' is one of those movies that connects with you in a very real way based on your life experiences. In this case, it's sure to reach out to many.

*'Remember Me' billboard in Times Square*

Please be aware the following review contains spoilers you may not want to know about. Stop reading now, if you don't want to be spoiled.

I was lucky enough to see 'Remember Me' on premiere night in New York City. It was without a doubt the highlight of my trip, since for me at least.. the city fully embodies 'Remember Me'.

We had to check in our cameras and cell phones before going into the theater. Once the lights went down - cheers erupted as the movie began.

The love story of Tyler (Rob) and Ally (Emilie de Ravin), develops as we learn about their backgrounds and who and where they are because of them.

Rob really captures the role of Tyler, the troubled young man who has a strained relationship with his dad (Pierce Brosnan). I don't know about you, but I've been there. It felt real enough to me. Very relatable. Very raw.

There is one particular scene at Tyler's Dad's office where things come to a head between them, and then.. funny moments. Funny relieving the tension. Funny when you least expect it.

And that to me is what makes this film stand out. The range of emotions that you experience as an audience member. And yes (for those of you asking), there are some very hot scenes between

Tyler and Ally, but even those sex-driven moments come about in the middle of other strong emotions that you don't necessarily expect.

There are also the not so palpable things, like the well chosen score & soundtrack that sets the mood in each scene, and the little clues that pop up, preparing you for what's coming.

Eventhough Lena Olin (Tyler's Mom) does not appear much in the film, her scenes with Rob, feel very genuine. But it's the relationship between Tyler and his younger sister Caroline (well played by Ruby Jerins) that takes center stage. As he picks her up from school and has daily chats with her in the park, you can really see the tight bond they share.

*Alice In Wonderland - Central Park*

Chris Cooper's performance is also a strong one. He plays a dad worried about nothing more, than keeping his only daughter safe. So I guess what's appealing about all of these characters, is that they could be you or me.

In the end.. they are.

'Remember Me' was definitely the best I've seen of Rob. But more than anything, for me 'Remember Me' is about New York. And the everyday lives changed forever on a sunny September morning in 2001.
