Taylor appeared on The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien last night to discuss the film and apparently catch grapes in his mouth. He also discusses the Brazilian fans, Twilight moms, and getting ripped for the role. You can check out all three parts of this interview below!

Check out Part TWO and Part THREE

Entertainment Weekly interviewed Chris on his thoughts now that New Moon has been released, and now that the reviews are rolling in after the closing of opening weekend!

EW: What were the highest and lowest points of making New Moon?
CHRIS: The lows had to be shooting at 5 a.m. in a forest and struggling to get certain shots so a sequence would string together properly. It was a very cold forest in British Columbia, and we knew we’d have another night shoot just like it the next day. The highs were the moments of real identification with the actors. With Taylor, the moments early on when he realized he was going to do it. That was very gratifying to me.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What was your biggest fear going into [opening] weekend?
CHRIS WEITZ: I didn’t have any particular fears. The tracking numbers were enough to indicate that I wouldn’t be letting the studio down. But 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.

I was nervous as anything to see New Moon. It premiered in Australia on the 19th of November and of course I attended the midnight premier. This will be zero spoilers so it might be short.

Twilight fans: There will be no disappointment and there will be lots of screams.

I personally think that Chris Weitz deserves a round of applause. He kept extremely close to the novel, adding in and taking out scenes that there will be no objection to The plot is seamless and flows nicely. All your favourite lines will be there and I think there will be some people with some new favourites. The CGI that creates our sparkling and our wolves is fantastic and looks realistic… well as realistic as giant wolves can be. I defintely liked the golden and red contacts alot better than in Twilight. The Volturi fight scene; perfect. New Moon was definitely not an Indie film, but more accurately a Chris Weitz feature film.

The cast did a fantastic job. Every cast member knew their role and acted it out perfectly. Jacob, well I think I have been partially converted to Team Jacob (or possibly Team Taylor would be more accurate). Edward’s presence was defintely there, and I would have to say it was a really nice balance considering how much of the novel he is absent for. The newcomers to the cast, members of the Volturi and Wolf pack alike fitted in seamlessly.

Without spoiling the movie anymore, I’d like to say that I loved New Moon. It was a much needed improvement on Twilight, and every Twilighter should definitely go and see the movie, because I promise no one will be disappointed. Oh and I wish Chris was directing Eclipse, but the best I can hope for it that David Slade and Chris will work together to bring us another excellent movie adaption.

Its Official. New Moon has done it.

Summit has announced that The Twilight Saga: New Moon has officially set a new all-time midnight box office record, taking in $26.27M from 3514 theaters.

This shatters The Dark Knight’s $18.4M midnight debut for a 3-day weekend. It also easily surpasses the all-time record for midnight showings which was held by Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which took in $22.2M on a Tuesday night on its way to a 5-day weekend total of $158M. The Dark Knight went on to take in $67.17M that opening day, dropped 29.1% from Friday to Saturday to bring in another $47.65M, and ended with $43.6M on Sunday for an opening weekend total of $158.4M.
