How to choose a fave scene from How To Be – ah now that is a tough one. I seriously could have posted the whole film as my fave scene – I adore every single bit of it. When having to choose just one scene however, there is NO way I could have ever gone past the ‘Mirror/Doin’ Fine’ scene. I remember the first time I saw the trailer back when it was released, the part where Art fist bumps the mirror – I just fell in love with him right there & then. I knew that would be a scene that I just absolutely adored & once I saw it in full, it was everything I expected & more. I seriously cannot put into words how much I LOVE it. Such an important moment for Art, him sitting there giving himself the pep talk before he goes out & plays his gig with Nikki & Ronny. I love the line I have used as my post title & also ‘you’ve got as much right to be out there as anyone else does’ Such an important realisation for Art & I love seeing how happy he is while performing Doin’ Fine. Rob is absolutely brilliant in this scene as is he in the entire film. I cannot put into words how much I love this film – seriously I just cannot. Each & everytime I watch, through Rob’s superb portrayal, I laugh out loud, feel Art’s moments of happiness, pain & frustration & want to give him the most biggest hug when he is feeling so sad & down. If there is anyone who has not yet seen the brilliance that is Rob as Art (not sure if that is anyone) – go out & buy it right now. Our lives are so much richer by seeing this film – truly. Oh & Rob’s ‘that was wicked’ line at the end of the performance – gold. I LOVE you Art!

Thanks for your beautiful message Rob but enough with the chatter, it’s our turn.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHELLE!!!  You are one of a kind and deserve to celebrate this special day among the many Robs you love and adore.  Here you will find a reflection of some moods and moments you’ve shared and celebrated with us on our Rob journey.
You are an amazing woman and friend and I’m soooo glad to have found you.  Thanks again Rob for bringing us all together – my heart is full … I mean it.

haha Maria and I sat up waiting until you went to bed last night to get our posts done, you didn’t peek did you? lol  Have an amazeballs of a day *cheers*

For our gorgeous girl xoxoxox

“They say it’s your birthday, lalalalala, you’re gonna have  a good time” …..  HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHELLE!   I wasn’t sure what I was going to do for your birthday and then inspiration struck on Wednesday night hence why I’ve been saying “oh I’m just doing something, will be around, but um yeah”.   Anyway – here’s a little something from myself, Vertigo and of course Rob.  I hope you have an absolutely awesome day.  Oh yeah and Vertigo wanted me to say “Have a blast Michelle!  I’ll try not to be late to your party. xoxox”.   Me neither!  See ya soon.

I swear to god we’ll be dancing in the streets the day we hear the words “AND THE WINNER IS …… ROBERT PATTINSON!”  It will happen, it’s just a matter of when Rob’s next release makes the Oscar nomination timeline.  The champers is already on ice.

ITA with Maria’s mantra – “tell us something we don’t already know”.

Water for Elephants has yet to hit our screens, but already Academy Award buzz is surrounding the new flick, with smouldering star Robert Pattinson being tipped for an Oscar for his role.

[We've posted this little bit from Chris before, but I can't hear/read it enough] … His co-star Christoph Waltz – who picked up a Best Supporting Role Oscar for his part in Inglourious Basterds earlier this year – has praised the star,tipping him to receive the prestigious Oscar prize next year. ‘It’s in my house,’ Christoph said when questioned on his gong, ‘but the way things are looking, I might have to hand it off to Rob next year!”

Sara Gruen on Rob: ‘I think Robert Pattinson is really going to shine in that role. He’s so dedicated,’ she said in an interview with The Dallas Morning News.  ‘This was a rough-and-tumble shoot, and when I was there on the set, he’d be lying in the dirt for 18 straight takes in a row, and he would nail every single one.

You can read the entire article at MarieClaire .  Thanks for the tip Lisa!

Ah yes, our last adventure at the Oscars … Only next time he will come and join us! hehehe

I like, Vertigo and Michelle, have so many fave moments from How To Be that it was a really tough choice narrowing it down to just one.  I decided to go with the scene where Art is asked to find happy or unhappy memories in his house and then goes back to his childhood bedroom.  I just can’t put into words the emotions that Rob evoked when I first saw this scene.  It was so heartwrenching when he asks the little boy what kind of vibes did he get from the room and then I couldn’t help but smile when he says “That’s exactly where my bed was, but it was over there and it was different”.  I love how Art sees the world and what I wouldn’t give for him to burst through my room, lie down on the bed and pull the doona cover over   – oops yep I said that out loud LOL Oh God and how could I forget the scene in the  kitchen.  There are just too many priceless moments in this film – Rob you and Art are GOLD!

Glamour UK is getting into the Halloween spirit by counting down the 31 sexiest movie vampires – 31?  Is the significance of that because there’s 31 days in October – it’s just such an odd number – oh sorry got sidetracked. Anyway, no need to get my knickers in a twist over that because thankfully Glamour UK got it right with Rob coming in at No. 1.  Like there was any competition (oh sorry Vertigo – Ian came in second, but you already knew that he was just there behind Rob – lol).  Shame we don’t celebrate Halloween in Australia because I wouldn’t mind Edward Cullen knocking on my door for a trick or treat.  If you want to see the other vamps, click on highlighted link above.

1. Twilight’s Edward Cullen
Played by: Robert Pattinson
Twilight’s resident Sex God, Robert Pattinson has brought new meaning to
the term ‘pale and interesting’. Like all vampires, Edward has a taste for blood,
but that’s all too easy to forget.  when you look at his ripped torso and intense eyes.
A thing of beauty…

I have so so so many fave adorable Art moments in How To Be that narrowing them down has proved to be impossible.  The only solution – a gif series!  Here is part one & more will be coming later in the week.  I have also included some of my most fave gorgeous behind the scenes moments.  He is just too too adorable for words.  Enjoy everyone – I know I LOVED making them.

Oh & just a request.  I don’t mind at all if you respost my gifs, infact I’d love it if you did. I’ve just noticed that a select few have neglected to source lately which is annoying.  It does take a lot of time to make these so crediting would be very appreciated.

I felt like some randomness this morning, probably a good indication of where my brain is at.  I love the look in the first and last ones especially.  Oh and the second, third, fourth … remember right click and save if you want the pic to remain on whatever site you want to repost on.  Oh and sourcing would be good too – have noticed of late that that seems to be falling by the wayside for a select few.

There’s not a lot of Rob in this little clip but he is just so so adorable in the snippet from 0.37 to 0.40. No way we could not share – LOVE it. This footage is from eclipsesecrets.com, a site where you can visit & type in a code from a special Eclipse version of ‘eclipse’ gum. In America of course. The codes unlock the site & the footage is revealed. Just a tip, no need to keep watching after the 0.40 second mark – no more Rob after this point! Thanks to our elite affie pattinsonlife for the tip & melcitron for the heads up
