Twilight 3: Less Sparkle, More Blood And Guts

Color us not surprised: New Moon is already selling out showtimes. Plus, the director for Eclipse tires of this werewolf-vampire love triangle, and promises us a gory guy friendly vampire war. But the real violence should be in the finale.

The LA Times is reporting that New Moon is selling out earlier than any other movie in history. We're not surprised, but what does shock us is David Slade, the director for the next Twilight movie, Eclipse, is talking about how the next film is going to appeal to guys with violence.

"The first one was very focused on this love story and really sweet and it was beautiful, but it didn't have a lot of stuff that guys would go, 'Yeah, I want to go see that,'" she said. "There's going to be a lot more focus on [action], and the fight scene will have more emphasis on it. I definitely think it will be a little more guy-friendly."

If you didn't know, the 3rd movie has a war between vampires and werewolves paired up with the Cullens. It's supposed to be violent... but not as violent as the last book where Bella gets — Spoiler — impregnated with Edward's evil baby and it judo kicks right out of her chest breaking her rib cage. Sex is BAD, people.
