Not only is the werewolf literally hotter than Edward (from a blood perspective), the feedback from the majority of audience members during the 7:30 showing of Eclipse at my local multiplex last night was inexplicably TEAM JACOB.  For every 20 Jacob t-shirts, sweat shirts and homemade water bottles (what?), there was only one Edward representation.

Let’s put the evidence of said paraphernalia aside for a moment and examine the REAL facts…audience reactions during the film.

1.  The scene opens with Edward and Bella in their special meadow.  There was no woo-hooing for Edward.

2.  The first time Jacob enters the picture, we see him waaay in the distance near his motorcycle.  A murmur spread across the audience.  We knew we were about to see him.  And then the camera gets a close up as he walks with determination up to Bella.  The tweens went WILD!  And when I say tweens, I mean the 30-somethings because I was whistling like I was a construction worker on a busy street next to a modeling agency.

3.  The first time Jacob is shirtless was epic.  I pulled out my vuvuzela horn and started chanting with the entire stadium.  The buzz died down long enough for Edward to deliver his line, “Doesn’t he ever wear a shirt?”

Here’s hoping NOT!  And the screaming resumed.

4.  Edward bends down on bended knee to to ask Bella for the 50th time if she will be his wife.  Maybe four people in the audience answered yes for her.  The rest of us rolled our eyes.

5.  Charlie comes out of the house to step between Edward and Jake asking, “What’s the problem guys?”  Jake slowly and meticulously answers, “I kissed Bella.  And she punched me.  And broke her hand.”  Charlie grins.  Audience cheers.

6.  Jacob enters the tent where Bella is freezing to death.  He convinces Edward to let him wiggle in Bella’s sleeping bag because he’s hotter than him (Amen) and then tells Edward this process would speed up if Bella had her clothes off.

Hey.  Survival 101 baby!

7.  Jacob tricks Bella into shouting, “KISS ME” before he runs off to battle.  He whips around, storms up to her, grabs her face, looks hard and then gently kisses her for a good 30 seconds.  There were high fives, blatant requests to REWIND THAT PART and girls fainting in the aisles.

I think we are experiencing a shift in power my dear readers.  The Wolf Pack is on the rise.  And I am declaring myself the unofficial Houston Pack President.  Team Jacob.  Who’s with me?

1. So You Think You Can Dance

With chicks like this in the Top 11 and that sweet country boy Kent, I’m hooked for the summer.

2. The World Cup

Among the MANY soccer players from which to choose, I have decided to focus on defender Lucas Neill of the Australian team.

I know. You can probably bet that other soccer players will be showcased on this website in the coming weeks. GOOOOAAAALLLLLL!!!

3. Twilight Saga: Eclipse

Here’s hoping they don’t cheese out the sleeping bag scene. Because that has HUGE potential in my head. The few trailers I’ve seen have been sort of “meh” to me, but this one has a cool ending at least.

I’m not sure why Carlisle Cullen has a British accent. And that new Riley vamp is cute. Reminds me of Logan Huntzberger. Oh how I miss Rory and Lorelai.

BTW: Team Jacob. 4-evah.

Taylor is hosting SNL this Saturday.

Do you think he’ll give other Taylor a little show-out like she did for him?

He can do whatever he wants. As long as there is at least one shirtless skit.

Can I get an amen TEAM JACOB fans?

I know this is another New Moon post, but just hang with me here.  I promise it’s the last one.  And it’s 11:14 p.m. as I type this and I am frantically trying to post something before midnight so my National Blog Posting Month promise will not be tarnished.

Top 10 List of Everything I Liked About New Moon:

1.  TEAM JACOB

2.  When the girls in the audience screamed at the top of their lungs when he whips off his shirt to fix Bella’s head gash.  (I was one of those girls.)

3.  Can I get an AMEN for Paul?  We need more of him in Eclipse.  And more Wolf Pack for that matter.

4.  When Jacob walked through the rain with short hair and the girls in the audience screamed at the top of their lungs.  (I was one of those girls.)

5.  Anything Chief Swan said.

6.  Emmett to Edward, “Dating an older women.  Nice.”

7.  Jane:  “This might hurt a little.”

8.  Jacob getting ticked off at Mike when he was about to kiss Bella the first time at the movie theater.

9.  The fact that Jacob and Bella never actually kissed.

10.  Even though I’m Team Jacob, Edward stepping out into the sun in Italy was pretty special.  Even though his abs were fake and spray painted on.

What were your favorite parts?
