As Juliet once said to Romeo: A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. Now, modern-day star crossed lovers Bella Swan and Edward Cullen are getting ready to carry on with their cinematic love affair. But will the second “Twilight” movie smell as sweet now that it has a brand-new name?

MTV News has the scoop on the official name and logo for Chris Weitz’s soon-to-film sequel to “Twilight.” Dubbed “The Twilight Saga’s New Moon,” the film’s official title art stays true to the look of the first movie while swapping in an orange tint, a subtle crescent moon, and the release date of 11.20.09.

Although the look of the new logo will undoubtedly get Twilighter tongues wagging, it’s the five-word official title that is the most prominent variation from Stephenie Meyer’s simple “New Moon.”

With roman numerals now considered taboo in Hollywood, and sequel names like “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer” and “Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li” in vogue, it makes sense that Weitz and crew would label the future films as “The Twilight Saga.” At the risk of reading too much into five words, it also seems to imply that “New Moon” will boast a more epic feel than the first movie.

As for the logo itself, Weitz has chosen to stay with the lowercase lettering, personable font and light-streaks-poking-through look of last year’s hit film. In switching from blue to orange, the movie’s upcoming posters will be instantly distinguishable from those of the original “Twilight” – which should make them look a whole lot cooler when teenage girls all over the world add them to their walls. The presence of orange also begs a new question: Now that blue and orange are taken, which colors should be used for “Eclipse” and “Breaking Dawn”?

It’s one of the most anticipated movies of the year. It’s the next installment in a worldwide phenomenon. And now, it’s called “The Twilight Saga’s New Moon.” Stay tuned, Twilighters, as MTV will continue to bring you all the latest news from now until November.

Meghan | 531 comments I sorta like the ring to it. It's just kinda long.


message 3: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie Yeah its ok....


message 4: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments I'm just going to call it New Moon... Bet a bunch of others will to. No one is going to add "The Twilight Saga's"


message 5: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie Yeah at least not people who have read the books...


message 6: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments While probably people who haven't either. W/ almost every movie that has a sequal, they just refer to in w/ the second part of the name. Not with the whole title.


message 7: by Caz (new)

Caz (cazk) It's cool!
Everyone will call it New Moon. The whole Twilight Saga thing is probably for people to distinguish it's the sequel!


message 8: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments But everyone knows it's the sequal. If they don't their stupid.


message 9: by Caz (new)

Caz (cazk) Well, a lot won't!


message 10: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments Their idiots! Thats all i have to say.


message 11: by [deleted user] (new)

haha very idiotic


message 12: by Caz (new)

Caz (cazk) Haha, well, some people don't read or keep up with the latest news.
I don't think there idiots. Maybe keeping up to date with books about Vampires and Werewolves is there thing.


message 13: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments But it's all over tv and everywhere!


message 14: by [deleted user] (new)

ik! but its hard to ignore!


message 15: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments I still think they're idiots.


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

same here! go us!


message 17: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments yay!


message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

lmao


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

I think it's a little to long but hey i'll still watch it:)

Eclipse should be red beacause of all the love/emotions/violence,etc.. in it.

Breaking Dawn should be Gold because of all the magic in it:) If you've read the book you know what i mean:)


message 20: by Mary (new)

Mary | 1348 comments i think it should just be new moon. but i love the logo!


message 21: by Lexi (new)

Lexi (theonecalledwhatsername) i like the color

and i agree eclipse should b red


message 22: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments Red= good plan!
Gold a little to close to new moon color though.


message 23: by Lexi (new)

Lexi (theonecalledwhatsername) i agree
mayb breaking dawn could b an emerald green color. i think it would b really pretty


message 24: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments Green could work. It's kinda like nature and in the spring and birth, which has a lot to do with the book.


message 25: by Mary (new)

Mary | 1348 comments oooo yah i like green.


message 26: by Court (new)

Court I like the picture..the logo's ok.


message 27: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments I can't wait till November 20th!!!


message 28: by Emma (new)

Emma | 113 comments oooooooooooooooooooooooo

message 29: by [deleted user] (new)

"As Juliet once said to Romeo: A rose by any other name would smell as sweet"

message 30: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments less then 9 months till it comes out!!!


message 31: by [deleted user] (new)

i know! i can't wait!!!


message 32: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments Time needs to go by faster!!!


message 33: by Caz (new)

Caz (cazk) Noo, time can't go faster!!


message 34: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments Why not!!??


message 35: by Court (new)

Court Ummm...because we would spin and spin and spin until we all flew off the Earth and then time would seem to go REALLY slow in space until you got picked up by aliens and they captured you and then time just...stops???




message 36: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments ok... That works. Never mind then?...


message 37: by Court (new)

Court I reallly don't know why she doens't want it to go faster though...


message 38: by Meghan (new)

Meghan | 531 comments That makes 2 of us.


message 39: by Laura (new)

Laura (ifavorentropy) I'm happy with time going faser-as long as we float closer to the sun time will speed up, not stop and it'll be november in the equivalent of like, five days!!!!!!! red would look great for eclipse but gold would look just a little too orangey so i like the emerald green idea


message 40: by Meghan (last edited Feb 25, 2009 06:30PM) (new)

Meghan | 531 comments Well I meant that it wouldn't seem so long till it came out.



message 41: by Caz (new)
