Well all I can say and maybe all of you will agree with me. the outtakes
, bad or good or great, they can really help with the hangover
from the twilight saga or satisfy a bit of the "insatiable hunger"
for more of the twilight universe

I totally agree! Except I do like the prom one on her site better than what ended up in the book, it's so funny. (LOVE Alice )

As for the other outtakes on myspace I don't know how to get them. I somehow found them once & was able to read them, but I don't remember! (I'm not on myspace so I know it wasn't there.) If I remember or find out how I'll let you know.

Please PM me if you do. Thanks pennybug84.

"Emmett and the Bear" was my favorite. I loved seeing Bella find someone who understood what it was like, even for a short time, to be human and be in the arms of someone so inhumanly beautiful and feel like hell was worth it if they got to keep their angel. It's terrific. Plus, who wouldn't laugh at Edward scowling at the tv because the cook seasoned something to taste and then Edward punching Emmett so fast Bella didn't see it until he was over the couch? Plus, Esme's typical mom reaction from upstairs. What a great ability it would be for a mother to be able to hear all the way across the house and never have to wonder which kid was telling the truth about who took the toy away from whom!

I adore the prom remix. But I see how it couldn't work in that form. Given the way Rosalie feels about Bella, she wouldn't sit there so happily making Bella into the picture-perfect prom date for Edward. But beyond that, it would have worked really well in the book. I do wish we could have seen the part where they go back to Charlie's and he's smitten with Edward's Vanquish, and then the meal that Edward spent all day preparing.

I enjoyed the shopping scene. I mostly liked Alice standing guard around Bella's bathroom stall because Edward would kill her if he saw in her thoughts that she left Bella alone even for a minute. It was also good to see in more detail how leaving Edward under such a strained situation was affecting Bella. I like that Alice can be herself completely even in a crisis that threatens someone she loves. James wants to kill Bella...let's go shopping!

Badminton is definitely pointless if you've read MS. But if you haven't, it still isn't that much of an addition to what was there already. It's cute, but not necessary.

oh what can i say about these u=out takes that havent been said? nothing but i like hearing the sound of my own typing so i'll give it a go any way

i love these out takes so much. so much of alice has been lost in twilight with the deletion of the shopping trip. but would it have moved fluidly enough with it? or would you be sitting there going 'come on come on get to the fight already?'

it must have been a hard choice to cut these from the books as they are such little gems. the bear scene has to be my favourate to. but i'm sorta hoping.... (well i'm wearing my rosary out, praying) that it gets worked into midnight sun some how. but then if MS turned out to be 1000 pages long i think i would be very very happy

but i do have one question though..... whos carol?

SM had different names for Jasper and Rosalie at first. Carol was Rosalie's original name. So glad she changed it! And Jasper's was Ronald!!! Hahahaha!

yes i'm really glad she changed jaspers name

I loved all the outtakes and wish they where included in the book. I hope there will be some for Eclipse or BD although I think she said she didn't have any for Eclipse.
