Bella's MINE! Woman Claims Credit for Discovering 'Twilight'
A woman who claims she was a literary scout for Maverick Films and that she discovered "Twilight" and "The Lightning Thief" as possibilities for feature films says that she hasn't been paid what she's owed for the two -- "Twilight," obviously, went on to become a huge success. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Nanette Shipley has only been given a small part of what she's owed:
Aerial LA: Twilight Landing At LAX (Cockpit View Video)
Sure is big for such a small town. This video gem rocks a twilight, cockpit view landing at LAX International Airport on what pilots call the SADDE Six Arrival. For clarification that's 'twilight' the time of day, there are no vampires in this video, please accept my apology. Curious though how this soaring re-entry might feel set to a different LA-centric tune. Perhaps Babylon Sisters.

LAist Movie Review: The Black Balloon
If there is ever a time to get people out of their house and into movie theaters, it is now. The weather is turning colder, Oscar season is fast approaching, and a large amount of turkey makes it hard to want to do anything besides sit in plush chairs with 40 oz. of liquid crack within easy reach. The problem, though, is that everyone knows this, from the big picture houses on down to the independent filmmakers trying to earn a living. And most people, like it or not, will go see the American film with star power and an 8-figure budget that gets wasted on sending plumes of smoke and fire into the air. It’s a tough season for the independent outsiders. Just ask Ron Paul.
Movie Review: Twilight
It's difficult to review a film that is so purposefully intended for an audience other than myself. With its focus on chaste and forbidden love, is about a love that can neither be resisted nor explained.

New Twilight Movie Trailer
The folks behind the upcoming movie, Twilight, based on Stephenie Meyer's book series, have finally stopped torturing fans with teaser-length trailers and premiered a new one yesterday on MySpace. You can watch it more easily here though, on the ecard or embedded below the jump.
Adventures in Bon Temps
HBO's new series True Blood is based on the series of books by Charlaine Harris, about a world where vampires have emerged from the shadows to claim equal rights in human society, prompted by the invention of a synthetic blood drink that removes their need to hunt humans. In this world, vampires are exciting and intriguing, dangerous but sexy, and their blood has enjoyable drug-like effects on humans, so we now have people who actively try to seduce vampires, and even people who attack them to drain their blood and sell it. The story is set in a small imaginary town in Louisiana called Bon Temps (as in Laissez les Bon Temps Roulez), and features a bleached-blond Anna Paquin as Sookie, a young waitress with the inexplicable ability to read minds, who falls in love with Stephen Moyer's chivalrous, brooding vampire named Bill. Yes, Bill. It beats Sookie...
Book Review: Twilight
Twilight is the first installment in the series of the same name that has generated an upcoming motion picture, as well as borderline hysteria in the hearts of mostly female teens and adults alike. After watching two or three friends get sucked into the madness (and only one of them a fan of teen fiction), an investigation seemed called for. The movie trailer looked decent; the fantasy of hot-vampire-falls-for-ordinary-girl was not totally unappealing.
