Rob at the Hamilton Behind the Camera Awards (Nov. 6)

Part of Rob's speech (Source | Gossipgyal)

The vampire Edward from the Twilight saga, Robert Pattinson, presented Chris Weitz, that directed him in New Moon. Visibly nervous and embarrassed, Pattinson started saying that he "would rather that this room was fool of Twilight fans, since they wouldn't care to notice how bad he's is for speeches". The actor, however, started a curious tribute. "When I met Chris I wanted to be friends with him in seconds. He is a trememendous artist... and I think it's bizarre to be here saying behaved things about him, since in our last conversation we were talking about going to Coachella to eat some mushrooms" - to what Weitz yelled "SOUP! Mushrooms soup!".

Chris Weitz Talks About Kristen "She’s an independent film actress of the highest caliber."

 What was it like when you started Twilight: New Moon, which was such a highly visible project?

For me, it was tremendously refreshing because I knew that people were going to go see it. So there’s no pressure on me, as far as I’m concerned. Instead of treating it in any way like a popcorn movie, I just decided to treat it like a big, widescreen romance. That conditioned getting Alexandre Desplat to write the score and getting Javier Aguirresarobe, who’s one of the great DPs in the world, to shoot it. I knew that if I was true to the spirit of the book, there were all kinds of things I could get away with in terms of what we were doing with the camera and the lushness of the colors and the design. It was a complete delight. Kristen Stewart is an amazing actress. Really, she’s an independent film actress of the highest caliber. So she will bring to what’s essentially a melodrama these very harsh emotions.Coming out the other end of it when we were marketing the film, that was madness — in a very enjoyable way for me because I kind of got to be the Ringo Starr of the group. We traveled around Europe, the big three and me, and the biggest it got was Munich’s Olympic Stadium with 23,000 screaming fans who were there just to see us say hello and answer a few softball questions. There were moments where you felt that this could get dangerous or this could get really weird, really fast. It was rather extraordinary.

CW talks about the Twilight Cast watch here at E!Online
"Yeah. I really, really like those guys. Some of them are coming to support me tonight, which is really great. And I think that they're all terribly talented. It was part of the reason I did New Moon in the first place."

"I wanna figure out how they shoot that part where the baby eats its way out of Kristen's stomach!"

Celebuzz Anyone you would love to work with again?
CW: Kristen, Rob, and Taylor. If they let me! Sure.

What does it mean to have the support of your former cast-members like Kristen and Taylor here tonight?
It’s tremendous. I think it’s really cool. I mean because every time they come out, they face a gamut of fans and get screamed at and everything and they have to dress up and think like ‘Oh what am I supposed to wear tonight.’ It would much easier for them to just watch the DVD at home. I’m really touched that they’ve come out tonight, and it’s great to see them because I’m really fond of them.
