Summit Entertainment contacted Twilight Lexicon and was asked to share this email with the Twilight fans:
In any case, here is David, unedited and in his own words:
“Dear Laura and Lori
I would be grateful if you could distribute this statement to
the fans of Twilight:I would like to address some statements that I made regarding Twilight.When I made these comments, I had neither seen the film nor read the books. I was promoting a comedy short film that I had made for Xbox and every pop culture subject was seen as a possible comedy target. I was being silly and none of the statements were from the heart.
Of course, I have since seen the movie and read the books and was quickly consumed with the rich storytelling and the beautifully honest characters that Stephenie Meyer created.I would like to reassure everyone involved that I am invested in making the best film that I am humanly capable of, and that I am acutely aware of the power of the original books we serve.Please be rest assured this statement is absolutely from the heart.
yours sincerely
DAVID SLADE”
Note to David: PLEASE MAKE A KICKASS MOVIE!!! That's all we ask! Oh and stay true to the book.
Full Story
I second that: PLEASE MAKE A KICKASS MOVIE AND STAY TRUE TO THE BOOK!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!
