TWILIGHT NEW MOON’S TAYLOR LAUTNER (JACOB) ON SET FILMING AT THE RIDGE

Monday, April 6th, 2009

TEAM JACOB!

That’s all I can say. This afternoon Amy, Kim and I went to go check out the set of the Twilight Saga movie New Moon at the Ridge Theatre in Vancouver. It was so worth it. Miss Amy takes total credit for setting this up. Thanks Amy!

Twilight New Moon Filming at the Ridge Theatre

When we got there we hung out at Meinhardt for a bit… there were barely any fans there since we had gotten a tip, so we were trying to be incognito. We walked around to the side for a bit to check out the alley and the side of the bowling alley. The scenes being filmed here are the two Port Angeles movie theatre scenes in New Moon (when Jessica and Bella go to the movies, and later on when Mike, Jacob and Bella see a film).

Yes, we may have been twice the age of everyone else there, but we were okay with that. We waited about 2 hours before Taylor Lautner (Jacob) came out to take photos with the fans. What a class act. Totally reaffirms why I am Team Jacob.

Taylor was extremely gracious and friendly. Putting his arms around fans and making space to take photos with their friends. He couldn’t have been a better sport. His skin looked amazing up close snd he smelled GOOD!

He took about 4-5 photos with fans and then went back in.

Enjoy the photos! Hopefully Amy and I will be able to get some more photos soon. Sorry for not posting the snowboarding movie tomorrow… Team Jacob takes precedence ;) I’ll try to get it out this week though before the Tofino surf weekend.

TOP 10 REASONS WHY CANUCKS FANS HAVE IT HARDER THAN ANY OTHER FANS IN THE NHL

Canucks Playoffs 06/07

First, before I begin, let me say that I am not off the bandwagon. I’m always ON the Canucks bandwagon. I’ve stuck with them through thick and thin and every single year I believe that they will somehow win the Cup that year. I still watch or listen to every game and root for the boys. I’ll never give up on them.

However, I believe that Canucks fans are a special breed. We are put through a lot. Yet somehow we always find a way to cheer them on. We may possibly be the most frustrated fans in the league.

So therefore I present to you…

TOP 10 REASONS WHY CANUCKS FANS HAVE IT HARDER THAN ANY OTHER FANS IN THE NHL

10. Trevor Linden retired. (Sorry, I had to put it in :) )

9. Trying to get tickets to a Canucks game requires you to either take out a loan on your house or beat down scalpers over the head with a bat and run.

8. The majority of seats in the lower bowl are filled with suits who don’t wear jerseys, don’t cheer, arrive halfway into the first period and walk out with 5 minutes in the game left, blocking everyone’s view.

7. We had to deal with Mark Messier.

6. Our players are always injured in the most crucial times.

5. Our players rarely win fights.

4. We have a “third period” Achilles heel where we either a) If the Canucks are down, they play their hardest hockey of the game in the third period when it is too-little-too-late or b) If the Canucks are winning, they find some way to lose in the third period, usually in the dying seconds.

3. A player is acquired and is heralded as the team’s saviour or a player comes back from injury and is heralded as the team’s saviour.. in both cases fans are often left feeling disappointed with the result.

2. The Canucks give away the puck more than any other team in the league.

And the number one reason why Canucks fans have it harder than any other fans in the NHL…

1. When arguing with a Toronto Maple Laffs fan about which team is better, all they say is, “Well at least my team has won a Stanley Cup!”… then we hang our heads in shame, swallow down the acrid bile that rises in our mouths just thinking about the Leafs, and admit that yes, our team has never won a Stanley Cup.

———-

Canucks Players look over the bench

Yes, I’m mostly just joking about all of this. But — please Canucks, please start playing smarter hockey. Please stop turning the puck over. Please find some chemistry in your lines. Please start winning at home! We’re sticking by you guys and we’re trying to be patient.

I hope we can make a run for it here in the last stretch here before the playoffs.

Go Canucks Go!
