‘Twilight’ DVD Gets New Artwork
Good news for fans of the movie version of Twilight … Summit Entertainment has revealed the official artwork for the upcoming DVD release of the megahit movie that was just released a couple of months ago … behold:
Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) doesn’t expect much when she moves to the small town of Forks, Washington, until she meets the mysterious and handsome Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson)—a boy who’s hiding a dark secret: he’s a vampire. As their worlds and hearts collide, Edward must battle the bloodlust raging inside him as well as a coterie of undead that would make Bella their prey. Based on the #1 New York Times best-selling sensation by Stephenie Meyer, Twilight adds a dangerous twist to the classic story of star-crossed lovers.
The DVD artwork looks pretty standard, no big surprises … interesting, tho, that the “bad guys” are featured on the DVD artwork even tho they weren’t in the film very much. I might’ve featured the Cullen family instead but, I suppose it doesn’t really matter. As yet, there has been no release date announced for the Twilight DVD but now that we know what the artwork will look like, I suspect a release date is imminent. So Twilighters … do we like?

It’s not bad…but I think it was kinda good to have the “bad guys” on the cover
January 7th, 2009 at 9:12 am
I actually really like the cover. But i agree that the Cullen’s should of been on the cover, they play a really important part! The background looks really good too.
January 7th, 2009 at 9:20 am
I like the cover as well. I’m anxious for the DVD release as I haven’t seen it yet. I would have like to see the Cullen’s featured, though. Although, they might come out with a “Cullen” cover so die-hard Twilighters shell out more dough to have both covers…
January 7th, 2009 at 9:21 am
The movie was awful, so I guess to put the “bad guys” on the cover is fine. I have seen scarier villians in Disney movies. To call the movie a “mega-hit” is stretching it a bit too, but to each his own.
January 7th, 2009 at 9:26 am
I don’t even care if they didn’t feature the Cullens they are probably featured on the back..All i care about is that the DVD is finally getting into production… The movie is a mega-hit because the amount of money as well as the fan base it has accumulated. For me i didn’t even know about the book before this came out and now..I have read the books ( Several Times) and have seen the movie and believe that the young cast deserves that recognition that they deserve.
January 7th, 2009 at 9:34 am
Well, I can’t say I’m one of those hard core twilight fans, so no twilighter here, but I really enjoy reading the series of books and liked the movie. I think the DVD cover is decent, but as you said, it’s pretty standard. No surprises.
By the way, nice job with the blog! I’ve been reading it for several years, but have never commented. So, it thought I’ d take the opportunity. Keep up the good work!
January 7th, 2009 at 9:39 am
Mmmmmm… yum.
January 7th, 2009 at 9:40 am
I don’t really care what the cover looks like, I just want it to be released already so I can watch it 24/7 and not on a bootleg copy ;]]
January 7th, 2009 at 9:41 am
I like!
January 7th, 2009 at 9:51 am
whaaaaaaaaa……if it were up to me, it would just be rob pattinson, naked. but i suppose i agree with you. the cullens should have definitely been on the front.
January 7th, 2009 at 9:55 am
I LOVE it, i want it to come out NOW on dvd.
Definatley more cullens, if not the cullens, more alice;]
January 7th, 2009 at 10:03 am
wonder what the special features will be… how to be brooding and creepy even on a DVD cover…
January 7th, 2009 at 10:08 am
@nikki – i hope it comes with sparkly body glitter :)
January 7th, 2009 at 10:13 am
It’s ok.. I wish they put a better picture of Kristen and Rob.
January 7th, 2009 at 10:47 am
OMG I can’t wait for it!!!!! I think they said it coming out in March 2009 or April 2009
January 7th, 2009 at 10:55 am
I wish the cullen family would have been on it.. they were a good part of the book too. the bad guys on it kinda makes it look like their might be more action.
January 7th, 2009 at 11:02 am
the dvd is scheduled for release on feb. 14th but i don’t like this cover the stars make it look to fake and the cullens should be on the cover and not the bad guys!
January 7th, 2009 at 11:12 am
i hearddd from someone ;) that it’s release date is Valentine’s Day 2009…which makes sense. It would make a great gift from a boyfriend to a girlfriend.
January 7th, 2009 at 11:21 am
I’m with you Lana…LOL
BTW, go vote for Rob over at Hello

January 7th, 2009 at 12:01 pm
I’m with Kat (LOL)…Rob naked would be perfect, but I think Kim might be right and that they will have another edition with the Cullens on the cover. Gotta make that cash money! I just can’t wait for the extras and the ability to watch it whenever I want.
January 7th, 2009 at 12:46 pm
not crazy about the pic they chose.. wish they used the pic of rob i got yesterday when he was making out with me in my bedroom.. oh wait… was that a dream? damn.. that was a dream…

[...] info at Pink is the new blog and Just Jared PS Trent from PITNB wants the dvd to include body glitter. But what about a tube top [...]
January 7th, 2009 at 1:13 pm
@trent
then the tweens can DAZZLE just like eddie. what they should really include is an ef-ing paper bag for the all the inevitable hyperventilating that will be happening in bedrooms all over the country!
January 7th, 2009 at 1:17 pm
@nikki
oh? hyperventilating happens in your bedroom? something else happens in mine….
:)
January 7th, 2009 at 3:00 pm
release date is v-day…yaaaaay. =)
January 7th, 2009 at 3:25 pm
she kind of looks like she’s in pain on the cover, or bored.
January 7th, 2009 at 3:38 pm
wow. what the hell is what I think…I absolutely loved the book kristin stewart as bella? she never claimed to be frightened or even scared of edward in the book, and the artwork depicts her as being scared as hell! hmm, not trying to hate here but I think they could have at least TRIED to pick something a bit better.
January 7th, 2009 at 4:24 pm
mmmmmm cam gigandet.
January 7th, 2009 at 5:31 pm
Looks good. Theres supposed ot be some good extras…about 12 deleted scenes and the commentary from catherine, rob, and kristen. Kristen will probs stammer awkwardly, rob will be hysterical as usual, and catherine will prob have random zany comments that make sense only to her. Hopefully it’ll also provide some insight into some of the scenes that caused alot of criticism about how they were shot/directed.
January 7th, 2009 at 5:34 pm
a lot of reviews i’ve read of the book and movie complain that the villain part came too late and that it was the most interesting part of the story. maybe that’s why they put them on the dvd cover…but frankly i think it should have been the Cullen family. they play a bigger (and i think more important) part in twilight and subsequent books.
January 7th, 2009 at 6:06 pm
Like you said, standard. I would have liked the Cullen family on the cover too but w/e.
January 7th, 2009 at 6:38 pm
@trent – Edward Cullen Body Shimmer?

January 8th, 2009 at 8:13 am
To Wendell – It is a mega hit!!! You may not like it and it may be flawed but it has made more money in the cinema than James bond did and that is saying something!!!
January 8th, 2009 at 10:41 am
So, Edward looks weird.
January 8th, 2009 at 10:54 am
I hate it. It’s so generic and we can all agree that we’ve seen these pictures many times.
January 10th, 2009 at 2:12 am
i love the cover…it looks so much better than the other two twilight posters….i wish they used this poster for the movie
January 22nd, 2009 at 12:46 pm
