    Maxim's 2009 cover features Trica Helfer and Grace Park. Pics at the link. Link has 8 pictures, if someone pics up the hardcopy (!) the story has 46 pics in total (mostly small pics) I think. Link also has a 1:32 video of the photo shoot.

    @Ruthless, If you let me: Oh good. It worked, and I was able to find it! (Though it was an odd road to find it.) Let's hope people check the tips box, before tip emails, because I want a hat tip.

    I bet the floor was wet after those clips. I suppose Avatar took longer to show considering the floor had to be mopped...badly!!!

    I bet that after this event, all the hyped up Twilight girls are going to run into the hyped up comic boys and have plenty of hate sex.

    You know, the fact that io9 willingly chooses to cover tween girl dreck like Twilight speaks to the true nature of this website's journalistic standards. Seriously, this is supposed to be a website that covers science fiction, and you have the freakin' balls to put Twilight coverage up here with everything else? How the hell do you people live with yourselves? Like Rainier Wolfcastle, on top of a pile of money with many beautiful women? Because that's one of two explanations that make sense, the other being that the whole lot of you are completely OFF YOUR FUCKING ROCKER.

    @theherlihyboy: Dude, we're sci-fi and URBAN FANTASY. I'm no Twilight fan, but I understand how weirdly *big* this is right now and io9 is completely justified in covering it. It takes no effort to scroll past this story and look for something that suits your tastes better.

    Just to keep this straight, you're the people who all thought Blade was brilliant, right?

    "You give Frost a message from me. You tell him it's open season on all suckheads. "

    "You better wake up. The world you live in is just a sugar-coated topping! There is another world beneath it - the real world. And if you wanna survive it, you better learn to *pull the trigger!*"

    Let's try and keep our heads, oldsters, eh?

    @Lassus: The difference between Blade and Twilight is that the makers of Blade knew they were making dreck. They embraced the cliches of the vampire genre and had fun with them. Teen-girl-trapped-in-a-grown-woman's-body Stephenie Meyer thinks her "books" qualify as some sort of serious literary art. She is a thin skinned, overgrown emo who was so butt hurt when an early draft of the final novel was leaked on the net she decided not to ever finish or even publish the last book.

    They're making a sequel to that travesty of vampire fiction?

    @VergessenHeld: I am going to assume that was directed at either a Warner Bro's exec and/or Stephanie Meyer

    @Makidian: It was directed at both. Stephanie Meyer for furthering the shitfest that is the "sexy vampire" trend and Warner Bros for making a sequel and gaining Meyer even more fame and fortune.

    I see the dialogue is as scintillating as it was in Twilight. Although it's understandable, really, if one considers the source material.

    And whenever I'm reminded that Michael Sheen is going to be in New Moon, my soul dies just a little bit more.

    I know. Yep. I wish I didn't know. Ignorance truly is bliss. I still can't quite put my feelings about this into words. When I try, it just ends up being one long sustained wail of NOOOOOOOOOO!!!

    @BullLifter: I feel like whenever Sheen does a really good movie, he then does a super shitty one right after. It's a horrible twisted cycle.
