5 Questions with David Slade

Entertainment Weekly has a new interview with the director of Eclipse in which they ask him 5 burning questions about the Eclipse DVD.


1. Why doesn’t he do a commentary track?
Slade is obviously well-represented in the feature-length making-of documentary and introduces and provides context for deleted and extended scenes, but he’s not on either of the two commentary tracks over the movie — he leaves those to Stephenie Meyer and producer Wyck Godfrey, and Stewart and Robert Pattinson (she’s in Montreal, jealous that he’s in L.A. eating In-N-Out). “It’s a choice I made after doing my first ever and last ever commentary on my first film Hard Candy,” he says. “I did a commentary for that and found it such an unsatisfactory experience, personally, that I vowed never to do it again, because I’m not very good at it. You work for a year-and-a-half, two years, however long it is on a film, and it’s a very personal experience as well as a very public experience. There’s so much catharsis that goes into it, and then you end up sitting in a little room and you reduce what was an intense amount of work down to a crappy, silly little anecdote usually. ‘It was raining that day.’ [Laughs] I just found it to be really disheartening, and, like I say, I’m not really good at it. I didn’t do one for my second film [30 Days of Night] either.”


3. Why don’t we see all the deleted scenes described in the commentaries on the DVD?

Stewart describes the first thing she shot on the movie — a “fairly ridiculous” sequence in which she imagined herself in the fireside flashback as the Quileute elder chief’s third wife, who stabbed and sacrificed herself to distract the vengeful female vampire attacking the village. Meyer and Godfrey describe people laughing when they saw it. Understandable that they would choose not to include it. Ditto the scene Bella imagined after her kiss with Jacob on the mountain. She saw them having grown old together. “There were a lot of issues with prosthetic makeup,” Slade says with a groan, then a laugh. “It gives me a bit of a shiver, as a filmmaker. As an idea, it was wonderful. What happens with a film is it becomes organic and it grows, and it tells you what it wants, and it was screaming loudly, ‘I don’t want that!’ to me.” Another scene described in the commentaries never actually got shot. “Stephenie really wanted to see Edward as a young man again, and we had this vision scripted for a while where Bella and he are together in Victorian times, as a kind of reverie,” Slade says.


5. Why don’t we get a blooper reel on the DVD?

Kristen and Rob talk about how people fell a lot on the fake snow. That, for instance, we would have liked to have seen. “We had a blooper reel, but I think people were pretty potty-mouthed,” Slade says. “I think you can put that down to bad language.”

Some Stephenie Meyer and Wyck Godfrey Commentary from Eclipse dvd

Some people in Australia apparently got their pre-ordered Eclipse dvd's already and they have posted some of the fun nbitsw from Wyck and Steph's commentary...

Stephenie Meyer/ Wyck Godfrey Producer Commentary

OK I know many expected this to be pretty boring, but these 2 are actually funny and interesting, though not as entertaining as Rob/Kristen. They
did it before the premiere, so they wonder at the audience’s reaction to
certain scenes. If you can’t be bothered watching it yourselves, here
are the best parts:

• Supposedly a drunk friend was recording Xavier in his video audition he sent in.

• The title art was initially different. SM: It was boring.

• They chat about Bella having a voiceover at the start of every movie.
Wyck suggests Kristen’s voiceover for BD will simply be “I’m pregnant”.

• SM describes the wig being a “diva”. i.e. requiring attention

• They joke about how Charlie is always drinking beer describing him as
being the most alcoholic cop in movie history. SM describes him as the
unsung hero of the Twilight series. Everyone loves Charlie. Then Wyck
says he’s a “sung hero”. People have actually written songs about him so
lookout on the next soundtrack.


• SM: Kristen’s skin is beautiful.

• They talk about fighting over the music. SM wanted Florence and the Machine song in the Beck and Bat for Lashes scene.

• SM likes Jasper’s hair despite it changing every movie. She thinks they finally got it right.

• They love Sarah Clarke. SM concludes Charlie and Renee are getting married again.

• In the Bella riding off on Jacob’s motorbike scene they laugh about the windshield wipers on Edward’s car stopping right in front of Rob’s face
all the time.

• Imprinting: They decided the Claire/Quil story will be held until BD

• They call the wolfpack nudists running around in “jorts”

• A few people on set replicated the “spider monkey” scene in the Cullen house soundstage.

• The tribal story scene was the worst scene to shoot besides the baseball scene in Twilight.

Mandy's Mind - I recall this night, it was a Friday I believe and it was POURING rain.... a bunch of people I know went to set ALL NIGHT, in the rain... I stayed home, despite it being just down the street from me... brrrr.... the entire wolfpack came out multiple times for fans though!

• Kristen as the 3rd wife made the test audience laugh-unintentionally funny so they cut it.

Mandy's Mind - We knew they filmed this and wondered why it wasn't in the film! I guess they didn't want another unintentionally funny moment like New Moon Alice's vision of Bella & Edward frolicking ha ha

• SM talking about the books of the Twilight Saga: “Chris really gets the rough end of the stick. He got the weird one” LOL

• Like me, SM also loves the sound of Bella’s hand crunching Jake’s face.

• All the producers practiced the Jacob/Bella kiss.

• SM walked out of Wyck’s trailer upset after seeing Angryward scene. She
knew Jacob’s arm would be ripped off if Eddie ever tried to grab him by
the shoulder.

• SM/Wyck call Emmett and Rosalie jerks for not coming to the graduation of their siblings.

Mandy's Mind - I wonder if there was another reason they weren't there?

• Wyck wanted Jacob to come into the graduation party scene as wolves to make a more dramatic entrance, or wearing jorts.

• Like Rob, Wyck also jokes that Alice looks drunk walking down the stairs before the flashback.

• Wycke to SM: “ you’re a logic nazi!”

• SM: Talking about changing the style of the wolves between NM and
Eclipse: “It’s just like the hair. Next time the wolves will be
panthers!”

• Jacob wolf looking arthritic as he walks away from Bella

• Wyck doing a Tenessee accent (its terribly funny)

• Like Rob, SM also commenting about Jasper’s “They’re verr come in the south”

• SM on the kid Jasper killed in the flashback: “That kid was nice, it
was sad when we had to kill him. We should have picked some child actor
who nobody liked”

Mandy's Mind - Some extra's from that flashback have tried to create a name for themselves based on that LOL Like this guy ha.


• Talking about having a hot Rod party. SM : “the thing about wyck is, he lies a lot, and you can’t tell when he’s
lying or not.” Wyck: “Can we put Andy Samberg in BD?”

• SM has heard “imprint” and “battle” too many times, she no longer likes those words

• SM was there for the leg hitch scene (there may be hope for the BD sex scene to be hot?)

Mandy's Mind - Yes, I have been told by those who know Steph that as much as we fear SM will cock block she is actually "not a prude" PHEW!

• SM: “Kristen’s really authentic and vulnerable. “

• Kristen running down to talk to SM wondering if she could do anything else during the leg hitch scene.

• Proposal scene: Rob keeps the ring under the bed. The first time they forgot about giving him the ring.

• Leg hitch: They knew it was a fandom request

• Wyck talking about Bella trying to seduce Edward: “I thought she could
have had him.” SM: “If only she had you there to advice her wyck.”

• They were almost going to flashback to Edward courting Bella back in
the olden days in black/white. Would have been unintentionally funny.

Mandy's Mind - yes but so worth the laughs ha

• In proposal scene Rob stressed out a lot. In the end the scene looked effortless

• Scene where Riley/Victoria kiss. Wyck: “He bites her lip!” SM: “ooh yeh I think you would lose a bit of lip there.”

• Korts=khaki shorts, Wyck plans to make a new line. SM will make a swing dance commercial for them.

• Taylor dropped Kristen going up a hill when he had to carry her.

• They all bought parka’s for the mountain top scene. It was hot, they
didn’t need them. They send their thanks to producer Bill Bannerman

Mandy's Mind - ha no comment

• First take of tent scene, Jacob kept his distance not touching her at all. They reshot as SM insisted he be holding her.

• Edward/Jacob bromance is mentioned a few times

• They mention people having to shaking the tent outside to imitate the wind.

• For the tent scene Taylor emptied a trash can (everyone wondered why).
It was for Kristen to make her feel more comfortable because she was
terribly sick that day

Mandy's Mind - awwwnnnnn

• SM and Wyck commenting on Kristen not wearing her big jacket when walking out of the tent in the morning. They
suggest Kristen throwing down the jacket in the scene and saying “you
knew he was listening. i hate that coat!!”

• Jacob/Bella kissing scene: 2 different filming locations. SM added the last little kiss
between J/B. SM: This required more demonstrative kissing “everyone was
kissing everyone!”

• THEY FILMED JACOB/BELLA GETTING OLD TOGETHER. They had a grey bella wig and everything. But everybody laughed so they cut it out.

Mandy's Mind - this is the scene I was most waiting for since I knew it was filmed - I even talked to Summit rep (R) at Fan Site Screening in L.A. in June and he said it should be on the dvd as did David Slade during the junket soooo - - - it better be on my dvd damnit!!!

• OK i don’t get this. SM: “At least they cut the part where they then continued the hunt and they
leaped over a log and now Bella is being played by a very muscular stunt
man i believe. Also now bella is ripped. It was a very interesting
aspect of her vampire transformation.” NO IDEA.

• They had a nickname for a newborn whose make up stood out: The “neon newborn”

• SM: “Esme kicks butt. A lot of creative ways to kill people.”

• SM mythology issues. She believes it looks too easy to kill a vamp. They should have to work more to do it.

• There was a Bree/Esme scene that was cut. Its not on the DVD.

• SM “bryce’s face kills me” “crazy beautiful its unreal”

• SM: “Xaviers face is so noble.”

• Wyck: (joking about Xavier)We really did take his arm off for this shot. Method acting

• Edward trying to get Victoria to attack him and not run away. Wycke:
“Turn him into “ass” SM: “Oh wycke. These movies would be really
different if you were writing them. They would be funny!”

• SM about Bella/Edward running from Victoria: “Hide behind the tree, that would fool her!”

• Wyck: “Kristen should do an all out action film. She’s really really
athletic.” SM: “Oh she so should. I loved watching her run in
New Moon, in Italy”. Wyck: “Really?” SM: “yeh she looks so good”

• They sped up the speed of blood running down Bella’s arm

• There were shots of Riley’s disbelief as Victoria ignored his screaming that were cut out.

• SM on Edward: “i learnt this one in Italy!” as he bites off Victoria’s head.

• SM (funny voice): “Theres Leah. Screwing things up again!”

• W: “There was a shot where a wolf phased into naked Jacob, Ultimately too nudie.”

• SM: “I am always jealous of Jane’s outfits.”

• Rob/Kris kept laughing off camera trying to get Dakota to laugh when she was in character as Jane. They succeeded.

• SM went around saying “Pity” a lot after seeing the movie. (imitating Jane)

• Bree falls to the ground screaming. SM: “She’s so cute.”

• SM talks about auditions for Bree: 250 people screaming. Many of them badly. It was a painful experience.

• SM on Bella talking to Jacob when he’s sick: “Everyones listening. And they all want to beat you when you come back out.”

• They say the Jacob/Bella scene at the end is a great scene!

• Then they complain about sheens of sweat, pillow sweat etc.

• Then they start joking about bad medical props. Wyck: Carlisle is to medicine like Charlie is to the police force. LOL

• Wycke: Kristen’s fantastic again.

• There was song before metric that was supposed to be in the final scene
that they got attached to. It was already released. They don’t say what
song it was.

• They talk about the score which was made in England. SM: “Maybe we should film Isle Esme in England. Because its
very tropical and warm!”

• SM on Bella’s final speech: “It feels like she’s made progression. She understands herself a little bit more.”

• Wyck on Edward giving Bella the ring at the end: “You missed the fight where she threw it at him. Oh yeh good offscreen!”

• Wyck had a fantastic idea for Bella when Edward wouldn’t let her see
Jacob.SM: “She storms upstairs. Theres a Picture of Joan Jett stuck by
her mirror. She nods to herself and pulls out the scissors”. W: She
looks in the mirror at herself and cuts her hair! Like joan jett. SM:
Then we would be done! W: Then entire movie with hair like joan jett.
That would have been fun. SM: No one ever listens to you Wyck.

• Wyck: “There are a few people we would like to thank....” SM thanks the
Craft services, they’re like set mums. They make grilled cheese
sandwhiches like no other.

• Then they get serious and thank the director, assistants etc.

I can't wait for the dvd extra's but I really hope those deleted scenes are included or I will riot !!!
