HitFix ready to visit 'Twilight Saga: New Moon' set

Will HitFix get to talk to Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner?  We'll find out later this week.

A legion of fans are going to be very envious regarding my destination tomorrow night.  Having already visited the set of the original "Twilight" a year ago in the wilds of Oregon while I was chronicling the world of movies at MSN, I'm lucky enough to be going back-to-back as I head to Vancouver for a sneak peek of "The Twilight Saga: New Moon."

First time around I and one other journalist got a gift that is a rarity nowadays: a 45 minute interview with a relaxed and blunter than he'll ever be again Robert Pattinson.  Don't expect that to happen this time around, but, no doubt director Chris Weitz will want to share his vision for the second chapter in the "Twilight" saga.  Who else will HitFix get to chat with?  Unclear, but it should be a very busy day. 

Summit is smartly embargoing our stories for a bit to wet everyone's appetite, but you can follow my journey to some extent over the next few days on Twitter.  Or, why not participate?  This writer has purposely avoided reading any of the novels to come at the series from a strictly cinematic perspective (a decision that has worked well for the "Harry Potter" franchise).  However, I'd love to know what you, the fans, would like to find out about the movie. What are you most curious about?  What would you ask Chris Weitz if you could?  Dakota Fanning? Or, a member of the Wolfpack?

Post your questions and thoughts in our comment section below.  If you haven't done so already, take 90 seconds to join the site here and then you'll easily be able to post your question.

    • Rob in the book of Job there is a part that Job says that would be perfect for Edward to say in Italy just before Bella finds him. It is "Why does God continue life to the wretched who long for death? My girls and I had heard in an interview that you wanted to play Job from the Bible and was surprised becasuse knowbody really knows of Job. where did you hear of Job? If you or anyone else needs a place to get away try Westport, Grayland, or Spokane Washington. You all could use a break. I think you are sexey with the most mesmerizing smoldering gorgeous eyes and a very irresistible smile with very soft sweet luscious lips. If I meet you I would love to sit and talk and I don't kiss and tell.Have fun and enjoy everything you do just don't do anything to stupid. smile and take time to rest. xoxo
