New Moon DVD Guide For Dummies


As we all know, the New Moon DVD release date is THIS Saturday (3/20) and - as we all know - there are about 437 different DVD's that will be available come that day. Now, to piggy-back off of what TwilightersAnonymous did, I took their comprehensive DVD Guide and dumbed it down... or tried to at least. I also put my final verdict at the end of this post as to what DVD I'll be purchasing. So, here we go:

The Basic 2-Disc Edition* of the New Moon DVD will include -

  • Commentary with Chris Weitz and Peter Lambert (editor)
  • A six part documentary on the making of New Moon which is an hour long. This includes - “Life After Twilight”; “Chris Weitz takes the helm”; “The Subtle Details”; “Time to Shine”; “Tricks of the Trade”; “Ready for the World”
  • Rehearsal Footage with Muse and music videos with Death Cab for Cutie, Anya Marina, and Mute Math
*Note: No matter what “special edition” or “exclusive” version of the DVD you buy, these things will be included.

Borders - $29.99

Borders will have really pretty packaging, as well as a necklace that you know you will never wear. One side of the necklace has the wolf pack emblem, the other has the Cullen crest. Additionally, their DVD will include: 11 extended scenes (25mins combined), interviews with basically everyone from the film (Rob, Kristen, Taylor, the Cullens, the Wolves, the Volturi) + Chris Weitz, red carpet footage from the premiere in LA and a "front row seat to The Twilight Saga: New Moon Webcast" (whatever that is.)



Target - $19.99


Target will once again have the 3-disc deluxe edition which will have a collectible 5x7 film cell (that you will never actually do anything with) along with it. Their edition also has over 50 minutes of extras including 4 featurettes - "Introducing the Volturi", "From Storyboard to Screen", "Fandamonium: A Look at the Die Hard Fans" & "The Beat Goes On: The Music of New Moon" - as well as deleted scenes. No word on what those deleted scenes are, how long they are OR how many there are.



Walmart - $24.96


Walmart is going to have the DVD everyone is going to want and buy (most likely). Along with their pretty Lenticular packaging, they are the one's that will have the Eclipse sneak-peek. Included on their special edition will be "new interviews" with Rob, Kristen, Taylor & Stephanie Meyer conducted on specific sets from Eclipse. At the end of that 7 minutes, there is a scene from the movie that includes Bella & Edward "that will have Twilight fans swooning." I can only imagine it's the controversial leghitch scene for which we've already seen the leaked images.



Barnes & Noble - $23.09


The Barnes & Noble DVD has no special features. It is the basic 2-disc edition of the DVD (see beginning of post for features) but comes with a dreamcatcher bag clip that’s pretty cute… if you’re Team Jacob. ;)



Best Buy - $24.99


Best Buy also is also selling just the basic 2-disc edition DVD but their packaging is different. The case it comes in is metal so you can use it for storage on a dresser or closet, or you can just put your NM DVD binder back in it and keep it on the DVD rack. They are also including an offer for a “free cell phone skin.” To actually RECEIVE the cell phone skin, you must pre-order through Best Buy’s website and they send it to you along with the DVD. No word on what the skin looks like or what type of cell phones it will fit.



Amazon - $20.49


FINALLY, Amazon is selling the basic 2-disc edition with no extra frills, bells or whistles. This DVD includes everything that is listed at the very top of the post.



My final verdict:

I’ll be buying from 2 different places, as I did with Twilight. I bought Twilight from Borders last year just because I love their packaging. Also, what’s drawing me in with Borders is the 11 extended scenes… that’s a lot of scenes! I’ll also be getting the Target 3-disc edition because it has the deleted scenes and the extra hour of featurettes. I really want to get the Walmart DVD because of the Eclipse sneak-peek, but I know the clips and interviews will end up on YouTube by the end of the week, so I won’t waste my money. ;)

Sooo... I haven't really actually posted anything of
importance since October 20 so let's catch up.

My last day at that God-forsaken office was October 30 and it just needs to be said that I am SO much happier since leaving there. Yeah, it sucks balls of a goat not having a full-time job anymore, but I'm happier and mentally I feel better. Working there was such a drag; just circling the drain every day that I had to go in there. It's weird how you know how bad it is when you're there, but once you leave and look back on it you're like, "JFC. It was worse!" Anyway, I'm really glad to have gotten the fuck out of there.

November came and went SO fast. Especially #LALadies. That was one of the best times/trips I've ever had; and I've been on a lot of trips and to a lot of places, so that's saying something. Maybe it was the fact of going alone and feeling (as cliche as it sounds) free. The fact that I could just up and leave home for a week without anything tying me down made me feel amazing. But yeah - travel buddy flight delays, sleeping on sidewalks in 42 degree weather in Westwood, being a part of the insanity, fangirling (BAD), karaoke, bonfires in backyards and a midnight showing of New Moon later - I wouldn't have done anything differently. It seems like it was so long ago, yet it seems like I just got home. It's a very odd feeling.


Thanksgiving feels like it didn't happen, only because I had to WORK that day. Apparently Michael's doesn't understand the need to be closed on a major holiday so my ass was at work on Thanksgiving. It wasn't bad, but it left me sad not actually being able to be with my family for dinner. But, if I couldn't be with my family that night, then I was okay with being with my work family.

December also passed very quickly. Working as much as I could, it felt like Christmas didn't even really happen. There was no big build up to it like there has been other years; it just kind of happened and then it was done. *shrug* I didn't get much but that was okay because the 'rents had given me an extra $250 to go to LA. Being with the family was nice though. A cousin that I used to be extremely close with when we were both younger actually came over. It was nice to see him. We talked about a lot of things and vowed to keep in touch; especially since he's living, lit'rally, 10 mins down the road. He was always like a big brother to me, so hopefully the vow to stay close won't be an empty promise.

January started, things slowed down at work. I'm only getting 15hrs/week, but close to 30 on others so I can't really complain. I could be getting 5 which would NOT be okay. George informed us that he is going to be the store manager at the new store they're building a few exits down from us so his last day as OUR store manager was a couple weeks ago. He was only allowed to take 4 people with him from our store to the new one, and I decided not to be one of them because I wanted to stay with my favorite person, Dave, at my store. Well, low and behold, he's taking Dave. Now I'm scrambling trying to figure out how to get a transfer from our new manager. *sigh* George wants me to come down there, but he's already hired someone for my job, so he told me he'd give me a different full-time position down there if I wanted it; I just have to figure out how to go about getting it. I'll either have to convince our new manager to give me a transfer OR I have to give my two weeks at this store and then re-apply at George's store so he can re-hire me. It's a lot of fuckery.

Classes started 2.5 weeks ago. They're going well. It feels different this time around for me, and that's a really good thing. I'm taking Statistics on Tuesday nights from 530-820. Yeah, it's a 3hr class, but it's only once a week. Plus, with it being at night, there are mostly older people in there which helps me because these people are actually there to learn and to focus. I feel more at ease and less stressed about the class with people like that. I feel like I fit in better with that demographic. My online class, Developmental Psych, hasn't really taken off yet. I'm still waiting on my fucking book to get here so I can get down to business with that. It will go well though because I will make it go well.

Odds and ends:
* I'm talking to Patrick (yes, again). I just... I don't know. I can't live without him. I need to have him in my life in some way or another. He even said that to me; he knows that we'll always have to have a connection to each other, no matter what happens. He will always be the one person in my life that I am the closest to; even closer to than the BFFs. That's just the way it will be.

* Dad is trying to plan summer vaca as per usual since it is January and that's when he starts planning. He's looking at either Denver or Boston. I don't know why. I don't know if I even want to go this year. He should just give me the money he would spend for me to go so that I can go to LA again.

...and finally...

* Twi/Robsession is still in full-swing. Weird how long it's lasting. I seriously figured I'd be over it by now, knowing how I am with things like this. But obviously this is a whole different level. I'm pretty sure it's at its peak (only because I don't really see how it could get any worse) so now I'm just waiting for the fall-off. *shudder* It's a scary and boring world outside of the fandom.

PS - I'm completely and utterly obsessed and infatuated with John Mayer's new album. If you don't have it, get it. I've never really cared too much for him as a person because of what I've heard - you know, the whole 'he's a douche' bit - but, this album is insane. Every. Song. I LOVE IT. ...and I don't say that about albums hardly ever.

The Eclipse script leaked today while I was at work. I'm not reading it, but skimmed it for the #leghitch and for the scene where Bella & Jake kiss. I also just read Jessica's graduation speech. It's perfect and I'm in love with it.

"When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our answers were things like astronaut, president... or in my case, princess. When we were ten, they asked again and we answered - rock star, cowboy... or in my case, gold medalist. But now that we've grown up, they want a serious answer. Well, how about this: who the hell knows?! This isn't the time to make hard and fast decisions, it's the time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere chill. Fall in love - a lot. Major in philosophy cause there's no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind then change it again, because nothing is permanent. So make as many mistakes as you can. That way, someday, when they ask again what we want to be... we won't have to guess. We'll know."
