All the Director of ‘Twilight' Got After the Film's Success Was...a Cupcake
The Twilight saga is as iconic as it is chaotic. Not only did the Stephenie Meyer book series sell more than 160 million copies and spend over 274 weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list (!!), but its film adaptations broke records as well. The first movie in the franchise earned $192 million in the U.S. alone and eventually made $408 million worldwide, per Variety. In a new interview with The Guardian, the movie's director, Catherine Hardwicke, revealed that she received underwhelming gift from the film studio after its huge opening weekend in November 2008. After all, Twilight opened with $69 million and launched an entire franchise based on the romantasy novel series. 'I walked into a room with all these gifts, and everybody was congratulating the studio, and they gave me a box,' Catherine told the publication. 'I opened it up, and it was a mini cupcake.' She added that successful male directors are typically gifted 'a car, or a three-picture deal, or [the chance] to do basically whatever you want.' This isn't the first time Catherine opened up about her journey directing the movie that started the worldwide phenomenon. During a 2023 appearance on the Watchalong podcast with Josh Horowitz, she said that the studio always underestimated Twilight's potential, as it catered to young women. 'Every studio in town turned this down,' she said on the pod. 'MTV and Paramount, they put it in turnaround. Everyone said we weren't making this. Even when I started on the job, they said, 'You know, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants was a popular book for girls. It made $29 million. That's probably all this movie can ever make.' Of course, our opening weekend was $69 million, and we made $400 million overall. Nobody could predict it!' She added, 'Up to the day before opening weekend, like that Wednesday or Thursday before, they said, 'If we make $30 [million] or something, we'll be ecstatic.' Little did they know, it would go on to become the first franchise ever to have three movies earn more than $130 million in their first three days. Not too shabby.

THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS Clip Features Scene Where Sue Storm Reveals She's Pregnant — GeekTyrant
Marvel Studios shared a new clip from The Fantastic Four: First Steps and it's set during a dinner scene with the family. Sue Storm and Reed Richards are acting weird and while Johnny is questioning them, Ben realizes what is going on. Sue, then confrirms that she's preganant. Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, The Fantastic Four: First Steps introduces Marvel's First Family—Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Johnny Storm/Human Torch, and Ben Grimm/The Thing—as they face their most daunting challenge yet. Forced to balance their roles as heroes with the strength of their family bond, they must defend Earth from a ravenous space god called Galactus (Ralph Ineson) and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer (Julia Garner). And if Galactus' plan to devour the entire planet and everyone on it weren't bad enough, it suddenly gets very personal. The movie is rooted in the old-fashioned optimism that inspired the comic that birthed the modern Marvel Universe in 1961. The director previously said: 'More than just the visual aesthetics, the '60s to me are all about optimism. It's about looking to the stars and dreaming about traveling into space. It's about how with the right heart and the right mind, you can do anything — which is what the Fantastic Four is all about.' Directed by WandaVision 's Matt Shakman, the film boasts a high-profile cast led by Pedro Pascal (Reed), Vanessa Kirby (Sue), Joseph Quinn (Johnny), and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Ben), with a supporting lineup that includes John Malkovich, Natasha Lyonne, Paul Walter Hauser, and Sarah Niles in yet-to-be-revealed roles. The script was originally written by Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer, it was revised by Cameron Squires and Avatar: The Way of Water co-writer Josh Friedman, with Eric Pearson ( Thor: Ragnarok, Black Widow ) giving it the final pass. The Fantastic Four: First Steps in theaters on July 25, 2025.

SUPERMAN Clip Explains Clark Kent's 'Hypno Glasses' in a Hilarious Exchange — GeekTyrant
A brand new clip from Superman recently was shared during Nathan Fillion's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live , and it finally gives fans a fun in-universe explanation for Clark Kent's hypno glasses that somehow convince people he's not Superman. In the scene, Fillion's Guy Gardner is chatting with Rachel Brosnahan's Lois Lane, and he casually brings up the whole 'how do you know Superman?' question. Lois brushes him off with a cool, 'I just do,' but Gardner isn't letting it go. He then drops the big reveal: 'I'm not saying who he is, just that he wears hypno glasses. They make his face terrific. How do they work? They make his face look different in your brain when he wears them so that you don't know who he is.' Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced) immediately calls him out for sharing what seems like a major secret, but Gardner deflects. He's not saying who Superman is, just that those glasses are doing some psychic heavy lifting. Lois quickly shuts him down with a deadpan 'I know about the hypno glasses,' confirming she's already in on the secret. The glasses have always been a sticking point for some fans. The idea that a pair of glasses could conceal the most powerful being on Earth feels like one of those 'just go with it' comic book rules. But director James Gunn decided to lean into the weirdness and actually make it make sense. In a prevously interview Gunn explained how the idea evolved: 'I was sitting with Tom King, the comic book writer, and I was like, 'You know the thing that I just don't really know how to reconcile in myself is the glasses because the glasses always bothered me as a kid.' 'They bothered me because I just don't have that much suspension of disbelief to believe that. But he said, 'You know, there's an answer for that in the comics, it's canon that they hypnotize people.'' So yes, in Superman , Clark's glasses are canonically doing a bit of sci-fi trickery, with their mind-bending tech that keeps his identity safe. Leave it to Gunn to turn suspension of disbelief into a plot point that actually enhances the universe's strange charm.
