Robert Pattinson & "Cosmopolis" NEED YOU

Robert Pattinson & "Cosmopolis" NEED YOU

Yes people, it's time, it's time.

It's time for the final of the MTV Movie Brawl and it's all come down to just 2 movies
left standing, "Cosmopolis" & "The Hunger Games".

Rob started out the competition with not one, not two but THREE movies!



But it felt like MTV were doing everything possible to get rid of Rob's movies by pitting them up against each other not once but TWICE!



First by putting "Cosmopolis" up against "Bel Ami" & then putting "Cosmopolis" up against "Breaking Dawn Part 2".



It totally blew their minds when "Cosmopolis" knocked "Breaking Dawn" out of the running.
They couldn't understand how this indie movie (a wildcard) had knocked out one of the big blockbusters.



"Cosmopolis" has been the surprise of the competition (for MTV not for us) and MTV have only come to realise that Rob's fan base have come out in force to show their support for his new projects.
Let's show these people there's life after "Twilight" and we'll be there for Rob!



So it's all down to this one last vote ROB NEEDS YOU, "COSMOPOLIS" NEEDS YOU.

GO VOTE FOR IT NOW

VOTE HERE

The Movie Brawl's final round is open for voting until 5PM EST on Monday (January 23).
Only then will we finally know which movie stands at the top of the heap in the brawl for it all!

Come on people LET'S DO THIS!

Robert Pattinson Standing Tall in the MTV Movie Brawl

Kate posted the news and how to vote yesterday but MTV posted a great article today about the Cosmopolis win over Breaking Dawn Part 2.



Robert Pattinson Stands Tall In MTV Movie Brawl

Wow. Just ... wow.

In an upset for the ages, "Cosmopolis" defeated "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2" in the Elite Eight round of the 2012 MTV Movie Brawl. Let us count the ways this is shocking. One, it's a freaking "Twilight" film, one in a franchise that has so far grossed $2.5 billion worldwide and has catalyzed 2.5 trillion fever dreams in teen bedrooms around the globe. Two, "Cosmopolis" is a little indie based on a slim, highbrow novel by Don DeLillo, a writer who has, without a doubt, changed the face of postmodern literature but whose themes, characters and erudition don't exactly make him a likely Twi-fan fave. And three, "Breaking Dawn - Part 2" had thus far stormed through the Movie Brawl, dispatching challengers with ease and becoming the odds-on favorite to win the entire tournament.

But a curious thing happened — and its name is Robert Pattinson. Fans banded together, deciding to support, in "Cosmopolis," RPattz's new work (a possible post-vampire breakout role under the direction of David Cronenberg), rather than his been-there, sucked-that performance in a "Twilight" flick. The result, after almost 400,000 votes, was a decisive victory for "Cosmopolis." "Breaking Dawn - Part 2" will have to find some way to console itself (perhaps a mega opening in the fall will help), while Pattinson's upcoming film moves on to face "The Dark Knight Rises" in the Final Four.

Get Those Voting Fingers Out For Robert Pattinson

SO as we told you the other day MTV pitted Robert against himself by getting us to vote on either "Cosmopolis" or "Breaking Dawn Part 1"

Well the results are in and the winner in that round was "Cosmopolis" !!
So now it's time to get those voting fingers out again for the next round in the Movie Brawl.



"Cosmopolis" is up against "The Dark Knight" (and at the time of writing this "Cosmopolis" was well ahead) BUT come on people VOTE VOTE VOTE for ROB!!!

From MTV

Against all odds, defying all expectations, "The Twilight Saga" is no more… in the MTV Movie Brawl 2012, that is.

In the second Robert Pattinson vs. Robert Pattinson duel of this competition, it was the fan-favorite "Breaking Dawn: Part 2" that went down for the count, despite its status as the top vote getter in the initial play-in round and its performance in the Sweet 16. Rob's fans have made a grand statement by pushing "Cosmopolis" into the Final Four over "Twilight," showing that the majority of them are more invested in the actor's unknown future than his sparkly-skinned past. (Kate:Hell YA!)

"Cosmopolis" beating "Breaking Dawn" is easily the upset of the tournament so far, but is there enough momentum to defeat "The Dark Knight Rises," Christopher Nolan's final dance with the Bat? Batman is a fearsome foe indeed, proving unexpectedly strong against both "The Avengers" and "Dark Shadows." If Gotham City can rally behind their hero one more time, Batman could well beat Rpattz for a trip to the final round. (Kate: Not if WE have anything to do with it)

MTV Hates You: Robert Pattinson vs. Robert Pattinson

MTV Hates You: Robert Pattinson vs. Robert Pattinson



Welp. It was a stupid poll to begin with. Each time I voted for one, I turned around and voted for the other. I couldn't choose. What's awesome is the attention these two small films are getting from this maddening poll. Thank Rob for that.

Rob fans want to see these films badly. Both of them equally. The final results show that. So does the reveal of how many votes separated the two films. From MTV:

The MTV Movie Brawl 2012 is officially on! After the initial play-in, wild card and Sweet 16 rounds, only eight movies remain to compete in a series of head-to-head single elimination matches in our March Madness-style bracket. In the end, only one of these flicks can be crowned the can't-miss movie of the year, and the choice is entirely up to YOU. Which movie will win the brawl for it all? Vote at MTV Movies Blog and make your choice known!

If you thought the choice between "Cosmopolis" and "Bel Ami" was difficult, it gets worse. Robert Pattinson fans were literally divided in half with the seemingly impossible decision, ultimately voting the David Cronenberg thriller into the Elite Eight by only three votes. (Tink: Did you see that? THREE.)

Not exactly a wide margin! Still, if it was that hard to choose between two indie Pattinson projects, how can fans possibly pick between "Cosmopolis" and the final round of the "Twilight" films? On the one hand, "Cosmopolis" represents the next stage in Rob's career, a life after "Twilight." On the other hand… it's "Breaking Dawn," guys! The grand finale! It's what we've all been waiting for! Not an easy decision, to say the least, but it's a decision that needs to be made all the same. Good luck, voters — you're going to need it.

And you guys think my Torture Tuesdays are bad. Will it be Invincible Edward or Eric & Nancy???

While you're voting, I would suggest voting for John Carter too, if you catch my drift. If Cosmopolis is the chosen one, be ready for one helluva battle.
Final Four round begins Tuesday, Jan. 17th but be alert because the cutoff for the Elite Eight will likely be the evening of Jan. 16th. Silver lining? Rob will DEFINITELY be in the Final Four ;)

Robert Pattinson mentions: Mia Maestro (Breaking Dawn) says Rob isn't the cook, Madeline Stowe plugs Unbound Captives, MTV Poll is crazy & more

UPDATE: Rob's stunt double talks about his experience on Bel Ami (source via):

How did you become the double of Rob in Bel Ami?
In 2010 I was the Hungarian X-Factor promo’s face and they observed me and called the Bel Ami’s casting. I tried and I got the role. Then they asked me that if I wanted to be Robert’s double, and I said: Of course:)
How was this experience? Did you enjoy it?
It was amazing! To play whit such a great actors! Robert and me act in a scene together! He is a very good actor, and very kind!
Can you tell us a funny story about Rob?
Actually I don’t remember! Once, I asked him if  he knows Natalie Portman, and they are in good friendship. But he just laughed on this…
What is your favorite movies played by Robert Pattinson? And Why?
I  love Little Ashes! My favourite painter is Dali, and Robert was a Great Dali!
Could you describe us your relationship with the fans on set?
No! there was very exacting safety-rules.

~~~~~
A few mentions of Rob out there in the circuits. First up is Mia Maestro from Breaking Dawn. She played Carmen and had this to say to Peril (with translated questions):

She had been asked if Rob and Kris are partners in real life: "That's what you have to ask them. But yes, they are super open, super friendly."

Then Mia talks about coexistence outside the set: "We had departments where we could cook, I was much more home than you can think, and we eat among all together, we cooked."

Pattinson? "He does not cook, the cook is Kristen."

And Taylor Lautner? "I did not meet him so much, because we did not share many scenes. But I can tell you that Taylor, when I took my dog to the shooting, looked after him and played with him."

Who is more beautiful, then? "I can't answer you. Robert is very nice."

Haha!

Madeline Stowe briefly spoke with El Pais about Unbound Captives and dropped Rob's name. No idea if this project is progressing in a more concrete sense:

EP: You are one of the many recent examples of movie actresses that have done their best work ever on television.

Stowe: Today you have the opportunity to do something that you couldn’t before – which is to work both in movies and on TV. The stigma is gone. You have to be realistic and understand how hard it is for an actress my age to find work in film. So I stopped working for a long season. I’m focused on working on a project that I wrote and I plan to direct called Unbound Captives with Hugh Jackman, Rachel Weisz and Robert Pattinson.

The Family Guy did a parody on the Teen Choice Awards and Spunk Ransom snatch a screengrab of Rob's cartoon appearance as Edward:

MTV is hosting another poll that wants you to poke your eye out. Rob's films, Bel Ami & Cosmopolis are going toe to toe.

Josh and his MTV buddies give a synopsis of the polling bracket and talk Breaking Dawn, Bel Ami & Cosmopolis. Do you agree with their analysis?

From MTV:

It's Robert Pattinson versus Robert Pattinson in our second match of the MTV Movie Brawl 2012, presenting a seemingly impossible choice for RPattz lovers. How do you decide between one movie over the other? It comes down to which of the two projects piques your interest more: "Cosmopolis," the surrealist thriller from visionary auteur David Cronenberg, or "Bel Ami," the adaptation of Guy de Maupassant's novel that sees Rob locking lips with Uma Thurman and Kristin Scott Thomas. It's a difficult decision, one we certainly don't envy. All the same, we're more than a bit curious to see the outcome…
