Robert Pattinson Not a 'Twihard,' Saw 'Twilight' for The First Time 'A Few Days Ago'
by Joe Lynch · June 14, 2010
With the third installment in the Twilight series hitting theaters June 30, those still unfamiliar with the phenomenon might be finally getting caught up on what they've been missing. While "Twihards" (diehard fans of the vampire series) may find it surprising that anyone could miss out on their beloved saga, they'll probably be even more surprised to find out who is among the uninitiated: Edward Cullen himself.
Yep, "Twilight" antihero, Robert Pattinson has admitted that, until quite recently, he was among the few who've managed to avoid seeing the movie that made him famous.
"I just saw 'Twilight' on TV for the first time a few days ago," Pattinson revealed during a press conference for 'Eclipse' this past weekend. Although he had seen bits and pieces of the film while doing the DVD commentary, he said had never actually sat through the whole thing.
What were his impressions of the $408 million blockbuster he starred in two years ago? "Now that I've seen it, [I realize] you do need to read the book to get it," Pattinson said while laughing. "I was like, 'What?!' and I'm in it."
Pattinson also confessed that he freaked out a bit upon hearing his own song in the first 'Twilight' movie. "I was thinking, 'That is so bizarre,'" he told reporters when asked whether he would pen any more Twilight ditties. "It really shows how none of us thought it was going to be so massive. I never thought people would buy the soundtrack or anything, so it's a little more nerve-wracking now."
What next on the agenda for R-Pattz? Reading "Breaking Dawn," for one. Back-to-back filming for the final two movies begins this fall and so far Pattinson only has a vague idea of what happens in the final book. A spoiler for Pattinson and other non-Twihards: it's the one where Bella (Kristen Stewart) gives birth to Edward's child in a bizarre sequence.
"I didn't intend to not read it until now," Pattinson said with a laugh. "I just heard brief rumors about what happens in the story, but I don't really know what happens at all."
As for "Eclipse," Pattinson says the third movie stands on its own more easily than the past two did and appeals to a broader crowd.
"I guess in terms of the violence and stuff.... that makes it a bit more grown-up," he said during a separate panel. "Also I think it's just a more accessible storyline. The sort of love triangle thing -- being torn between two lovers doesn't really happen when you're eight. So yeah, I guess it's a bit more grown-up in that respect."
Also somewhat more mature in this installment: the liplocking between the two main "Twilight" characters (a practice for which Pattinson and his co-star, Kristen Stewart, just won an MTV Movie Award.)
"It was kind of the ultimate movie kiss," the 24-year-old heartthrob said at an "Eclipse" press junket. "We were on top of this mountain. There was a beautiful background. The camera is circling around us. And there we are kissing. It was good -- I'm glad Jacob had the opportunity to get his kiss in there."

"Uh...where am I?" Esme said wearily.

"MOMMY!!!!!" Renesmee shouted.
"It's always my ple-MOM!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?"
"We have to get her to Carisle. I will explain what I told Bella," Jasper said calmly.
Suddenly, everyone took three steps away from Jasper.
"It's okay guys. He's back to normal," I said.
Edward replied sharply, "Well how can we prove it!?"
"I will show you."
Then, Jasper hugged Edward.
"ESME!!!!!!!" As I ran over towards her.

Preface.
The reason i left was to save my family. The one I cant live without. But i wish they were here. To hold my hand. Promise me everything will be ok. But i push that thought to the back of my mind when i hear the approaching footsteps. I stand there. Alone. Preparing myself for terror that i am about to face. If i could cry, tears would be running down my face. But when the hunters prepare to attack. I crouch forward, my lips pull back over my teeth. I let out a deep growl which was cut short. My head snapped up to the sound i heard behind me.
