Phil Tippett of ‘Tippett Studios’ discuss’ the creation of the wolves in ‘Eclipse’ and the differences between ‘New Moon’ and ‘Eclipse’

‘Eclipse’ director David Slade has issued a Thank You to all Twilight Fans via the Twilight Facebook Page:

When you put your heart and soul into something as intense as the duration of a film production, you become completely lost in it. You focus on doing your very best to get it right each day and you work on this for so long that you assume an ownership of it.

When shooting The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, I always felt an awareness of how many people this film would reach and as a result, knew that this film did not just belong to myself, the producers and the studio, but more so, to all of you, the fans of The Twilight Saga.

**Slight Spoilers, You’ve Been Warned**

After 8 months of waiting, Eclipse finally hit theaters this morning.  I had the added advantage of being able to go to an advance screening prior to the midnight showing, so I saw it twice in less than 5 hours.  Which really helps when making up your mind on if you like a film or not!

I’m going preface this with saying that ‘Eclipse’ was my favorite book out of the series so I was expecting a lot out of David Slade and crew.  I’m also not guaranteeing that this will be 100% spoiler free, so read at your own risk.

Entertainment Weekly has just posted it’s review of ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’.

Along with THR and Variety, EW seems to be liking the latest Twilight Saga film giving it a grade of B+

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse is like some broodingly repressed wide-screen youth-pop melodrama from the 1950s — and I mean that as a compliment. The story, at heart, is earnest and humorless teen romantic glop, but its feelings aren’t fake, and the movie is compulsively watchable; it has a passionflower intensity. In case you haven’t been keeping up, the plot — and the blood — have thickened a lot since the first Twilight film two years ago. In that initial, relatively uncomplicated chapter, the ever-so-mildly dark and alienated Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) fell for the dashing vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) because of his pasty-faced erotic appeal (sideburns, James Dean hair, golden eyes, eternal stricken look), but also because he offered himself up as the ultimate protector: swoony and chivalrous, a spangly-skinned knight of the woods who vowed to guard her innocence.
