On Horiwood.Com we are a huge fan of author Stephenie Meyer and her cast of characters she created in the Twilight Saga book series. We also love her brilliance for giving young people in a recession film careers too, with the casting of Twilight’s big young super stars in her Summit Entertainment films. She’s an architect of Hollywood with the power of the pen. Love it.
But first up, here’s our hot pick of a Twilight Saga website that is a rising star. It’s called TwilightSingapore.Com and it is proof that fantastic things happen online outside of American in entertainment. Nice one Singapore! We feel you.
In honor of Stephenie Meyer, here’s our Top 10 Twilight Saga Websites on Horiwood.Com:
1. The Twilight Saga.Com – features a great interview with director Catherine Hardwicke and currently has a penchant for Taylor Lautner’s Jacob Black film character. Mainly centered around hawking Twilight’s latest merchandise for the film series the site is rated #1 on google.com’s search engines.
The latest merchandise being offered is a promotion featuring the cover for New Moon: The Official Illustrated Movie Companion which is to be published by Little, Brown on October 6th. The visual guide to the second Twilight fim features exclusive full-color photos of the cast, sets and locations and is the ultimate companion to the movie which hits theaters November 20th.
2. TwilightTheMovie.Com: This site needs Flash, version 10 to enjoy. It’s a very pretty site.
3. StephenieMeyer.Com: I love this site, for the other author book recommends that Stephenie Meyer writes about too. She’s a really humble literary bird. At the moment she recommends reading: Dreamhunter
4. IMDB.Com: This website is the online industry bible in Hollywood, of who does what in film. Casting agents, all producers and directors refer to IMDB every day. Why I like it, is because IMDB has a message thread board, and many Twilight Fans comment on it, as to who and what should be in the future Twilight Saga films.
It does require a membership to have full access, but it’s so worth it, if you want to know what’s going on in Hollywood from an industry perspective. IMDB is also Twilight Eclipse actor, Robert Pattinson’s favorite website, along with the New York Times.
5. HisGoldenEyes.Com: You have to give creds to a fan website, that has become an official website of Summit Entertainment’s marketing team to use and do promotions through. That’s quite a feat for the creator of His Golden Eyes.Com to achieve. Why I like it, is because they are up to date and more current than any other Twilight Saga related site available.
Today HisGoldenEyes features this pic of Xavier Samuels snogging Bryce Dalls Howard (the girl who replaced Rachelle Lefevre) on set of the filming of Eclipse. Also, they sell their own merchandise too, like a “Bite Me Edward” tee shirt for screaming Twilight teen fan girls. They’re making money off Stephenie Meyer, and they’re doing it the best. Nice!
6. Twilighters.Org: Is a crazy fansite, dedicated to updates and news tips about the cast and crew. It also borrows heavily from Twilight’s branding, sticking to the color palate of Summit entertainment for their own website face. Today, it’s looking pretty good, plugging the New Moon Board Game. Stephenie Meyer loves anyone whose doing her work for her and selling her hot stuff, so I’ve got to give Twilighters.Org a shout out today for that! Nice one guys and girls! They are very similar to His Golden Eyes, borrowing a lot off their competitors. But still love them anyway!
New Moon Board Game features are:
✩ Enter the world of the Twilight Saga and reunite Bella and Edward
✩ Challenge your friends to see who knows more about New Moon, the more you know, the greater you chance of winning
✩ Includes board, Scene cards, playing pieces, and dice
✩ Answer questions about Twilight and your friends to move forward around the board
✩ Have your friends over for a New Moon party
To preorder the New Moon Board Game from Amazon.Com go here.
7. TwilightReview.Com: A younger site that is competing with the best Twilight Saga websites. They deserve a big shout out today. Hard work pays off.
8. TwilightGuy.Com: Any guy who says he’s not a Twilight fan, goes to TwiCon, and has this crazy website, is funny enough, to be an interesting Twilight News reporter in our book. Nice one Twilight Guy! Oh, and he’s also writing his own novel. Smart.
9. TwilightLexicon.Com: was dubbed by Stephenie Meyer as being “the brightest star in the Twilight online universe.” Anyone who knows what a lexicon is in the first place and sets up a website called that, deserves a spotlight today.
10. ETOnline.Com: All Twilight Saga websites benefit hugely from those rare and exclusive TV interviews with Twilight Saga stars. When New Moon and Eclipse is being filmed, it is Entertainment Tonight (ET) who is the largest entertainment news show in America who gets these exclusive interviews first. Websites and bloggers can’t do it alone, so ETonline.Com get a special mention for bringing the expensive TV component to keeping the Twilight fans happy all year round.
This pic features Robert Pattinson in the upcoming movie Summerhouse and was found by TwilightSingapore.Com.
