TMI Movie News Weekly Wrap Up: Cassie Clare's Recent News/TMI Posts

This has been an insanely crazy week for me. Between long hours volunteering and co-running my kid's school's book fair, and my little girl's birthday celebrations this week I've been on the computer little except of course to watch the TMI trailer (numerous times, but who's counting *coughs*). I've missed a lot of great posts, so please indulge me while I flood the blog today with TMI movie related posts that Cassie, MTV news and others have posted this week. This posts is a re-cap of some of the posts you'll find on Cassie's tumblr from this week.


On the TMI Trailer being attached to Breaking Dawn 2, Cassie had this to say:

loved city of bones trailer will the trailer be connected to twilight film breaking dawn p2

The answer is yes, but.

Yes, it is, BUT don’t assume that means it will be at every theater playing Breaking Dawn 2! That is not the way of trailers. Theaters have some discretion about which trailers they pick up, etc. It will be in about 70% of theaters showing BD2 in the US and Canada and if you want to be absolutely sure you’ll be in a theater where they’re showing it, call the theater first and ask.

Internationally, every territory does its own thing. Some will have the trailer with BD2. Some will have it opening week, some the second week. Some won’t have it. I don’t have a territory by territory breakdown so all I can do is say, again, call the theater!


On runes: Cassie recently mentioned on her tumblr that, "I liked that they made the stele look like it really hurts. It's support to hurt." I would agree, this looks incredibly painful.


Cassie recently shared a post that likechildreninafairytale, did of Harald Zwart's Twitter Q&A about the movie with fans (taken from 11/16).  I know how time consuming long it takes to do this, and I want to say THANK YOU to Jamie for sharing this with us TMI fans who missed this.

@xofficialfan_: Did you read the books?And if you didn’t are you going to read them?:)
Harald Zwart: Yes, and I love them.

@YouMeAtGrigg: what was the best part of filming CoB?
Harald Zwart: Every day we had fans waiting for us outside the set. That gave the whole shooting experience an extra boost.

@XOAlex1617: Who is your favourite character in CoB?

HZ: If you want it enough. Everyone should follow their dreams.

@k0ala_2011: How many takes before Jamie nailed sliding across the hood of the cop car?
