We are FINALLY reviewing Life and Death: Twilight Reimagined for the first time! Yes, this book came out in 2015, but (shamefully) we hadn’t read it until now. It’s a gender-swapped version of Twilight, written by Stephenie Meyer. Goodbye to Edward and Bella, and hello Edythe and Beau… Need more...

It's another round of Commentary on the Commentary, and this time, it's Eclipse with author Stephenie Meyer and producer Wyck Godfrey. That may seem like a random episode concept, but there's a ton of information to learn and discuss. So it would frankly be irresponsible not to cover! Kel's…

Wish the Eclipse movie was a little longer? Well, there are six deleted scenes to watch and overanalyze with us! This week we revisit Eclipse’s deleted scenes and wonder: did they make the right call? Is it more important to be faithful to the books—or try to make a good movie? Kel & Mel also…

This episode previously aired on August 4th, 2020 on our Patreon. We've never shared our secret mini-episodes with the world before, so enjoy! But just a warning: our Patreon episodes are always a bit more raw and directionless, so don't be too disturbed. Episode description: "We're baaaack! And...

#63- An Ugly Fight. With Accounts Lost.
Last Tuesday, our Instagram account was shut down and all of our episodes briefly disappeared from Spotify, Apple Podcast, etc. We heard that tons of other Twilight fan accounts were shut down on Instagram, too. What's going on?? Is someone after us all? Luckily (awkwardly) our account is back...

Kel & Mel cover the Official Illustrated Guide’s chapters on vampires and the Cullen coven, sharing details left out of the books. There’s a section about vampire FLUIDS, and we wonder why didn’t Carlisle turn Elizabeth Masen into a vampire. He wasn’t into her? Other thoughts: Esme is the only...
-
#60- Commentary on the Commentary! Eclipse with Rob & Kristen
Commentary on the commentary is back! Join us as we overanalyze Rob and Kristen's conversations from the 2010's Eclipse movie commentary. Those were flirty jokes between them, right? Was Rob making fun of Taylor? Was some dialogue cut out? Plus, sound clips! ♡

-
#55- Deleted Scenes: Did They Make the Right Call?
You guys asked for it—we watched and discussed the deleted scenes in Twilight and New Moon! For each scene, we asked: should they have kept it in the movie, or was it the right choice to cut?

-
#54- Midnight Sun: The Last Chapters
It’s the end of an era! It’s the last episode covering Midnight Sun. :( Though it’s sad, we had a lot of fun with the final chapters... Carlisle is suspected of plastic surgery. Kel & Mel rank the Cullen men. Kelly says the word “crazy” probably a hundred times. We analyze Bella’s parents and...

Before we sat down to record we said, “Okay no tangents this time.” Well, there were a lot of tangents (attachment styles, birthdays, astrology, random scene in Eclipse) and it’s a long episode!

#49- Talking with Twilight Director Catherine Hardwicke!!
She’s in our theme song and created arguably the best movie of all time—it’s Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke!!

Yessss, we're back with another "Commentary on the Commentary", this time for New Moon with director Chris Weitz and editor Peter Lambert. Sounds like a weird thing to cover, but hear us out! There was actually so much to learn about the making of New Moon and the 'art of cinema'. Is Chris Weitz...
