First Twilight Teaser Trailer is Eerie, Intriguing

holy crap!!! the first trailer was better than i could have fathomed…. wow…this movie is going to be ridiculously good….keep the posts up!!! im loving them

The old piggy-back-while-flying-move. Yes, I’ve used that one on quite a few ladies. They don’t like getting hit in the face with tree limbs, but on the whole it seems to work.

As a super-fan of the series, I really loved the teaser! It gave ME everything I could have asked for!

However, I am trying to look at this very first tiny teaser trailer through the eyes of those who have never really heard of it, don’t know why there’s all this intensity…etc. I have to admit that through those eyes I must say that this trailer didn’t offer much for the non-twilighter. I only said ‘didn’t offer much’ not ‘didn’t offer anything’. Hopefully, the non-twilighter viewers will not view this tiny snippet of a trailer and completely write off, not only the movie, but the books as well.

That being said–I now put back on the cloak of my devotion to all things Twilight and simply say—OMG!!! It was BEAUTIFUL! I was giggling and sighing all the way through the 30+ times I watched it! *sigh* I can’t wait for more!

oh wow! i am too excited!!!

cannot wait!

Just as any other Twilighter (or maybe I should just speak for myself), I watched this teaser trailer over and over and over… and over again. I’m pretty sure that I burned holes in my monitor and that, despite that I am a “grown woman”, myexcited squeels were heard by the huskies in Alaska. The trailer left me wanting MORE and I definitely cannot wait until December!

Now, that being said, I do agree with some of the folks here that to the average non-Twilighter, this trailer does not say much about what the movie is about, and it might not hook new potential viewers all that much. It’s definitely enough for Robert Pattinson fans to want to see the film, but honestly, how many non-Twilighters (who shall hencforth be be called “the others”) and non-Harry Potter fans in the U.S. know of Robert? The others will wonder what the deal is with the running deer, and they won’t understand what “living forever” means. After all, there are no indications in the trailer that the movie involved vampires. What we do see is a boy with super-human strength. As for Edward being 17 years old “for a while”, it cuold very well mean he’d been 17 for 9 months - that’s a while, isn’t it? Am I about to be burned at the stake now for saying all this? ;P

That was for the benefit of “the others” of course. The trailer is a huge piece of candy for us Twilighters who know what’s going on. It just makes us want more. And I mean MORE. I don’t think we really can get enough of Twilight… can we?

Omg. When i saw this the first time, i nearly passed out! I found that i had been holding my breath through the whole trailer! It is so awesome! Ive memorized the whole thing now, and could recite it in my sleep!

Thanks so much!

I LOVE this series…litterally i am obsessed. I watched this clip lite 5 bajillion times. I can’t wait for the movie. I am gonna be the one who goes and sees it at least ten times(more like 35) in theaters

As a Twilighter, this teaser was literally my dream come true…
I haven’t stopped replaying it since it came out…

But, if I were looking through this through a non-reader’s eyes, I’d be confused… BUT
intrigued! Personally, I’d definitely have to know what this was about if I saw this ad… just
because well one who can deny Rob’s blatant sex appeal ;), Kristen Stewart’s in it (great
actress), and it’s sooooo mysterious; I’d have to know more.

That being said, back to being a Twilighter -
I’ll never be the same after this…… =D

In defense of the appeal to non readers… Hence the title “TEASER” trailer. There’s still plenty of time to get the full-length one out. This is just a snippet. It’s supposed to make you wonder… “What… the… heck?”

Why is he able to live forever?

What’s the story with him having to stay away from the girl?

OMG! He just dented a truck!

The trailer wowed my to the next level of yayness! If you have never read the series your probably wondering why there standing around in the middle of a forest or why he has super human strength, but doesnt it make the fil even more appealing. I think so

Anyway, I thought this trailer was so great, my family thought I was going into shock from the excitment

not a twilighter. found it hilarious. will see movie.

I liked the way they did this teaser. It has that eery mystical sort of feel. Almost like an M night Shamylan(sp?) teaser trailer. It wasn’t the best teaser ever but it really showed that this movie is NOT going to be cheese..its dark and intense and I am so glad they are doing this movie like that. Sure those lines in the trailer were kind of cheesy but most of them came straight from the book and I will admit that the book can get cheesy but that can be overlooked b/c of the intense relationship between Edward and Bella. So anyway I am pumped for this movie.

As a fellow Twilighter I *loved* this trailer. The only negative I have is that it wasn’t long
enough. I need more!!

If I looked at this from an outsider perspective, I would be intrigued but also sort of
confused. It doesn’t clearly define that Edward is a vampire and what else the story is
about, but it would still leave me wanting to know more and interested in seeing the movie.
And the chemistry between Rob and Kristen is amazing!!

Thanks for keeping up the Twilight news - all the Twilight Moms and other Twilighters
appreciate the love!

Thanks for your Twilight coverage! It is so nice to see so much attention given to this movie. I have been a huge fan of the books for the past couple years and this movie has sent me into complete hysterics. I was frantic yesterday when the trailer was posted and it left me completely useless all day because I had to watch it over and over. I am 28 and obsessed. :)

I read Twilight two weeks ago. It took me two days to read the entire book. As soon as I put it down I went and bought New Moon and Eclipse. I finished those in the next to days. So, I am a farely new Twilight fan, but I find myself sitting at the computer till midnight searching the web for the newest review, homemade trailer, photos, interviews… and the like. This past Friday I went to the movies, thinking Speed Racer was out just so I could see the trailer. So, you can imagine how two weeks has changed my out look on Twilight.
IF you’ve read the book, you know that the teaser trailer was 52 seconds of holding on to the computer desk trying not to pass out. AND you know you watched it more than 30 times.
IF YOU HAVEN’T read the books, you are still in for a treat. The movie is going to be one for the guys and girls, so I’m sure everyone will be satisfied.

With all that said, now I can be my true self and say: I literally screamed when my friend told me the trailer was out! The way Edward looked at Bella when he jumped in front of the truck said SOOO much. He was thinking “Why did I just do that?!” (and I melted.) hehe. So, August can’t come soon enough for Breaking Dawn to come out and I’m beginning to wonder if December will ever get here.

Go read Twilight, it’s worth it.

I was hyperventilating as I watched it. It was better than I ever imagined. Robert and Kristen are perfect!

((Oh and thank you Twilight Lexicon for the update!))

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh yay movie love the book making my whole school read it so they can see the move.

OMG!!! doesn’t rob look sexy as hell!!! he gets hotter every day! :DD -sigh- can’t dec. come any sooner! *pulling hair* x)

Okay, I’m not criticizing the movie… it hasn’t come out yet. And I’m not ripping the books… I haven’t read them, don’t plan to read them, and they’re irrelevant to this post anyway. I’m just objectively commenting on the teaser above.

It’s not good. It’s also not crap, so there’s that, but it really isn’t good. Teasers and trailers are supposed to draw people in and make them want to see the film. But everyone who loves (or even really likes) this teaser was already a fan of the books. To the rest of us it’s just a glorified CW Network ad. And honestly, at least from that sample, Pattinson is a pretty bad actor and the dialogue is ridiculous.

That said, I’ll wait until a proper and full trailer comes out before I decide if I’ll be seeing this in the theater. I realize the movie is still in post-production and they’re still working on the effects and action scenes. This advanced teaser is meant solely to whet the appetites of teenage girls (both in body and mind) until book four comes out in August. That’s smart marketing at the very least.

Extremely smart marketing. They definitely know how to make us fans salivating to see the movie. I agree the last 5 seconds of him flying into the woods was a tad cheesy, but other than it was fabulous. We really can’t judge Robert’s acting off of 59 seconds. In my opinon, I think the mystery of the trailer will draw people in. They weren’t just like “I’M A VAMPIRE!”.

I especially love: “How old are you?” “Seventeen” “How long have you been 17?” “…awhile”

Loved it!

Breathtaking. The chemistry was unbelievable. Robert only increases my respect for him
over and over again. I LOVED this teaser, and i cant wait to see more of what the actual
trailer will offer. This did not dissapoint.

thanks so much for the twilight coverage, and to the lexicon for the link…
i thought the teaser was great based on the fact that this was put together before the filming even finished.

And Rob: I also respect your opinion but I have to ask, how can you honestly judge robert’s acting skills from a 52 second teaser? or are you basing this on past experience?

And bad dialogue? Again, just from a few lines?

At the start when bella asks how how he is and he says 17 and stuff after she ask the next question and he says “a while” it sort of sounds like he his holdin his tounge!! But overalll IT WAS FABULOUS!!

As any other Twilighter I’ve been super excited and checking everyday for something new from the movie, so you can imagine how excited I was when I saw that the teaser trailer had finally been released. I watched it, and was quite disappointed. The beginning is good but, like Rob said, Pattinson’s acting and the dialogue isn’t all that great, they sound monotone. But since this is only a little piece, I’ll wait until the real trailer comes out, and hopefully I’ll look forward to seeing the film again.

i think i pee-d m pants when i first watched this. then i ran franticly around my house for my phone to tell EVERYONE to watch it.

rob is so freakin sexy, and when hes like “you really shouldn’t have said that” and smirks at her like that…GAH im just speechless

the next 7 months are going to be brutal. well at least we have breaking dawn! in 3 to tame us for awhile, then its right back on to counting down the days till this finally comes out!

LA LA LAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE IT!!!!!!

LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!!

I absolutely love the teaser, and that is all it is a tease. Granted it may not inform non-fans
of the premise of the film, but that is WHY it is a teaser. I think it was mostly just to give us
rabid fans something to *squeee* over until the next tidbit comes along. After all, they are
done filming now so random pics/interviews are probably out for a while. I definitely want
more.

hello out there, we twilighters in Australia are just dying to see this movie. We loved the teaser trailer and can’t wait for more. Can’t wait for August to read the conclusion of Bella and Edward’s story.

wow, im so siked for this. i have like, 10 ppl going opening day for it!!!!! go meriden twilght fans!!! b, j , l, ME, and all of us love the series!! looks amazing, i think rob is gonna pull it off!! <3

Personally I liked it. I know they have made alot of changes to the script and everything. One scene where i really saw the difference was the part where he says ” you really shouldn’t have said that” followed by him carrying Bella on his back. Which was certainly not in the book, but i loved it. Ofcourse they can’t have it the exact same way as it is in the book, or else i feel that the movie would be a bit dull. As long as they capture the theme and the true story i don’t really mind them changing the script that much. So overall i am really satisfied. Both actors have managed to slide into their characters beautifully. And I especially loved their eye-action. Because Edward does use his eyes to convey how he feels most of the time and i felt that just by watching Robert Pattinson in the crash scene.
To be honest saying I “liked” the teaser trailer is an understatment, because I was INSANLY thrilled after watching it! It was so good i could feel me shivering with delight. Catherine hardwicke captured everything PERFECTLY in my opinon. I loved the first forest scene, everything was so raw and woodsy. All the colours stood out and were so vibrant!
I also loved the way they had edited the teaser trailer. It was like they were showing only glints of the most exciting and intimate scenes. Now i suddenly get why they call them “teaser” trailers, because that is what they do XP
So I thought the whole thing was great! I am utterly satisfied, and the same goes for The official movie poster. I think Summit has done a GREAT job and that they along with Catherine have been faithfull to the book and it’s storyline, and that is all that matters. Just seeing the teaser trailer tells me, that not only is the Twilight saga my favourite book series of all time, it’s also going to be my favourite movie….

I LOVE this can’t wait for the real trailer!!!!! When I fist watched it I thought wow they screwed it up. But now I’m in total love with this movie and regret saying anything bad yesterday, so to make it up I went out and bought the Host!! IT is amazing so far. Anyway back to the movie I first watched it with my older sister and she is as we call them “an Other” and she thought toward the end that Edward was flying out the window and that he had super human speed like Supper man! Of course I have been shoving Twilight down my families throats since I read the book when it first came out. So she is pretty up to date with who everyone is and that they are vampires.
We got into this huge argument about Twilight and how it is not going to suck like Eragon. It ended with me winning but before that happened I had thrown a butter knife at her and missed but we were very caught up in the moment and in a very heated argument about the movie. She has sworn not to go see the stupid scar on a broom(Harry Potter) and that every time we see Twilight she will go.LOL.
I know everyone likes Bella for the most part but I really don’t like Kristen Stewart I do not like her acting at all but I’m giving her a chance with Bella, and I really don’t like Bella much I don’t think she deserves Edward. Anyway I’ll see what she can offer as Bella but I don’t think she looks the part.
The only thing I did not like from the teaser was that she asks him in the woods how old he was, I thought that should have been in the car. I heart Emmett but I’m worried that they will give the characters who don’t really talk much in the book a big voice and that will over power the character, like Emmett he did not talk much in the books but he had a very big personality and we all love him and I think giving him to may lines will over write who Emmett is. But what do I know? I think the first time Bella gets to “ride” with Edward should have been followed the book because that part was very memorable. Also What is up with Edwards room? I really don’t think he would have the typical teenage boy room like he does in the movie but oh well I still love it and support it all the way and I think it looks AMAZING, even more words want to come out of my head to describe it but noting is coming to mind so I’m just going to say GOO TWILIGHT!!! YOU ARE BETTER THEN A DUMB SCAR ON A BROOM!!!!
love all you Twilighters out there
love Liv<3

I love the books personally.. and I thought the trailor was okay.. it could have been much better.. i know it has to be short but they really didnt touch base with anything I thought the book was really about.. and Im not sure he makes a good enough edward :(… but i’ll still definetly see it and hope the next trailors are better!

GAH!!!!!! OMEOMEOME!!! i think im in L.O.V.E

*watches it again*

yup totally in love!!!

ahh they expect us to wait till December O_o OH MY EDWARD! i absolutely LUV, LUV,LUV it!
i noe its only 56 sec. but watever, i watched it who noes how many times! my computer
started freezing up =P ^_^ …and people who were complaining abt the video saying that it
doesn’t attract those non-twilighters, well..i think this is meant for people that are already
aware of the books and r HUGE fans cuz its a TEASER trailer!.. it is for the fans that Twilight
already have, obviously the OFFICIAL trailer will show more and summarize wat the story is
abt. This is definitely a tease…it just makes u want to to see more! omg! we want more! <3
y cant it be december already! :’(

*laughs aloud*
Brilliant.
Though he really is just jumping out of the window to start running.
Of course, those of you who haven’t read the books can’t know this. You also can’t know why he can live forever, why he’s hunting down deer (without any weapons), why he’s able to get across the parking lot in the space of about a second, why he’s able to stop a car with a single hand (and bring damage to the car), and why Bella (Kristen Stewart) is supposed to be scared of Edward.
And you have no idea who Emmett is (he happens to be the one telling Edward that associating with Ms. Swan is a big ol’ no-no).
Really, though, it IS a teaser. I mean, even if I didn’t know what this was it would make me curious. I would WANT to know the reason behind everything. Of course, I’m just a very curious person, but still.

For us Twilighters, though…ahem.
EHMAHGAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!XD
The excitement is overwhelming. It was bad enough before, but now I feel as though I might explode from the anticipation.
OhhhhmyEdwardthisisgoingtobeincredible.
P.S. Someone mentioned Robert’s hair and how it wasn’t red enough. Edward’s hair isn’t RED; it’s bronze, which I suppose has a more coppery-red tone to it, but still.
I think his hair looks great. Actually, I just love Robert as Edward in general, but of course that’s my personal opinion.
P.P.S. *SQUEE*

I totally agree about reading what non-twilighters think… cuz from that perspective (which I can’t fathom) it might not be that interesting… and after seeing the poster/picture I REALLY hope they don’t make it look “vampire-y”! :(
But going back into the outrageous “Twilighter” that I am who has been spending hours & hours of every day finding any new tidbit of info on the books/movie… I think I almost fainted watching this!!! I was seriously hyperventilating to the point of tears - I don’t think I’m going to Freaking LIVE through the whole movie!! AHH!
*SQUEAL!!*

This trailer was awesome. I watched it so many times after the first. Edward looks sooooooooooo great. he and bella look so good together! and thats a good thing because if edward and bella looked all ackward together, the whole movie would have been ruined. can’t wait for the official trailer! CANT WAIT FOR THE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im a HUGE fan of all 3 books!

the teaser i fell in love with! some parts are a little cheesy but i like it!!! I CANT WAIT TO SEE THE MOVIE!!!

i love it. i watch it over and over again. but i cant help to think superman everytime patterson says “you really should’nt have said that” i dont know, maybe its just me. but it kindof bothers me. lol otherwise, this whole trailer gives me the flippin chills

There were a lot of mistakes, but hey! whats the use of making a movie if its going to be exactly like what you read?

Bloody hell i think i’v watched the teaser about 90 times and god its amazing theyre all perfect actors for their roles. But i do agree that in the cast photo bellas nose looks funny. God that deer was so good at acting! I only started reading Twilight last week and and im just starting new moon at first (when the book was forced on me by my friend) i thought i would hate it but i read the whole book in 5 days (thats a record for me) and im a slow reader. Now im forcing it on my best friend (she better like it!!)
