I bet you are all shocked that I’m posting about the release today of information concerning the boxed set “Twilight Forever”. Personally I thought I already owned “the complete set”, but nevertheless they want to celebrate the 5 year anniversary since the first release of Twilight and I’m sure there are loads of you who want to also celebrate that since this was your introduction to Rob. And there’s nothing wrong with that. But before I bring you all the information released today by Summit Entertainment. I thought I’d share a couple of my favourite moments and BTS from each of the 5 movies.
Twilight
New Moon
Eclipse
Breaking Dawn Part 1
Here is the information concerning the US release. At this stage we have no information about an Australian or UK release:

*waves to Edward* 😀 Love your fave moments Maria. Seeing Rob walking into the cafeteria *sigh*, took my breath away when I saw him the very first time & still does to this day.
Thanks for putting this together Maria & for all the info.
@Maria – just love your choices, absolute fave moments, I think this is where I can say I would be happy to watch thes gifs “forever”, and thank you for the info about the complete set.
I love the piano scene.
*sigh* original Edward is still my fav
Mine too @Sare mine too.
Brilliant choices, Maria, though how you were able to stop at one from each Twi movie is beyond me – so many, many gorgeous memories of Edward indelibly printed on my brain forever. I love original Edward too – Rob made him absolutely iconic. Love love love! I’ve kind of gone off the whole Twilight thing of recent, but there is too much tempting stuff here not to want a piece of it. Maybe Summit (or whoever they are now) will actually make me part with my money for this box set. Anything for more of Rob! Thank you for posting this, Maria.
Wow, @Maria “Stun me to my DNA” ……. oops, wrong movie *giggles*
Call me shocked, but grateful. You know how much I love my Eddie ~ God knows, I think I just watched those first 3 gifs for 10 minutes without blinking!
So looking forward to November 5.
Oh good @Trish you can tell us if there’s any more piano playing Rob on it and then *cough* upload to YT *cough* for us to appreciate. I’m sure there will be many more “complete” sets to come over the years – 10 year anniversary (and all the ones in between)
@Sue we will celebrate Eddie every now and then especially since we aren’t being bombarded with him on almost a daily basis. I’m not going to miss the over promotion of this franchise. But I might miss Eddie sometimes.
Thanks @Maria, I know Edward won’t be forgotten here on RPAU …..
(ps. Do you think anyone ACTUALLY read that US Release info? Could they not have simply highlighted the Eddie bits?)
LOL @Sue – I swear if they had said “Twilight Forever: Special Edition Fast Forward Edward Box Set” – see all of Edward’s scenes, behind the scenes, deleted scenes, 60 minutes of unseen footage of Edward playing piano, interviews from Rob Pattinson and more. I would have handed my money over no questions asked. Summit – thanks for the fail yet again because why would I buy the SAME movies I already own multiple copies of because you never released the same version anywhere. At least you are consistent. Oh wait I just realised how they went under …
“60 minutes of unseen footage of Edward playing piano” ~ SOLD a million times over, and then some! @Maria, you are such a tease. Most of us could probably watch that 2 second piano gif on replay for 60 minutes and not feel cheated LOL.
Here’s an idea, Summit. 20th June 2014 To celebrate Edward’s birthday ~ Release the Special Edition EDWARD Box Set. Go on. Make a fortune from us! I dare you! (ps. Don’t worry, Maria, I had to google his birthday haha)
