New Moon Director: "This Was Made For The Fans"

newmoondirector.jpg

I truly admire director Chris Weitz has an artist, and I also liked what he had to say to Entertainment Weekly about his New Moon receiving bad reviews...

    "Given the media blitz that has accompanied New Moon, it's rather unsurprising. If one could imagine their biggest fears, it would be complete rejection of the movie by the fans. What I've realized over the last week is I won't necessarily get good reviews for this movie. Having swallowed that, this was made for the fans, and if you don't get it, then you don't get it."

Agreed! Leave New Moon alone!

Director David Slade is taking on Eclipse, but what about Breaking Dawn? Weitz is down for it, because he feels "a great deal of gratitude" for author Stephenie Meyer and the lead actors.

Can't wait for the next installment in June!



So excited!

everyone is over the moon about this movie

Chris Weitz can't do Breaking Dawn. He ruined New Moon and Breaking Dawn is the best one of all and it would really suck if he ruined that one too.

Chris did a great job, he stuck to the book, I believe that he is correct, he did it for the fans.. great job Chris
