25 Films In 21 Years: A Look Back – And Forward – At Kristen Stewart’s Career
Maybe the entire world has already seen a young Kristen Stewart in this Porsche commercial from 1999, but it is new to us. Watch and “Awwww” with us, please:
The woman (let’s stop calling her a girl, shall we) has an enviable resume that blossomed shortly after this commercial was shot. You know, when she worked with A-Listers David Fincher and Jodi Foster on her first movie, Panic Room. We first caught wind of Kristen in Into the Wild. She was completely captivating onscreen, and when we weren’t marveling over her acting skills we were enviously drooling over her legs. As Em in Adventureland she encapsulated everything it means to be a teenage girl in coming of age over the summer: insecure, awkward, flirtatious, unsure of herself and yet wildly confident.The break up scene in New Moon crushes us every time (specifically the seasonal change sequence) and we think her turn as a terminally ill teen in The Cake Eaters is some of her finest work – and at such a young age to boot.
We’ve included some of our favorite onscreen Stew moments below the jump, as well as a giant gallery of the actress through the years. She’s starred in over 25 movies (including Breaking Dawn 1 and 2 and On the Road) in 21 years – not bad, eh? And share your favorite onscreen Stew-moments with us too!
Kristen in Panic Room, her first film.
A clip of Kristen in Adventureland, our favorite coming of age 80?s flick ever (well, second to 16 Candles).
Kristen doesn’t have a ton of screen time in Into the Wild, but when she does she’s captivating.
Twilight. The biggie. Obviously this owns our heart.
New Moon is really Bella’s story, and Kristen helps tell it perfectly.
Eclipse, and the infamous “bedroom scene:”
Welcome to the Rileys, Kristen’s critically acclaimed soul-crusher that had us crying awkwardly in the theater.
The Cake Eaters is one of Kristen’s finest performances, in which she plays a terminally ill teen trying to lose her virginity. See.It.
Finally, The Runaways – in which she completely transformed herself from Bella to badass to play Joan Jett.
“Eclipse” Officially Passes “New Moon”
Box office numbers are in for Thursday, August 19 and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse has now officially surpassed the domestic total of New Moon. The film took in another $190,143 from 1,212 locations for a per theater average of $157 representing a decrease of 0.7% from Wednesday. This adds up to a cumulative domestic total of $296,649,934 after 51 days in release. Adding in overseas returns of $380.6M gives Eclipse a current worldwide total of $677,249,934.
For those comparing the films in The Twilight Saga, at this point in its release history (after 51 days) New Moon had taken in $290,277,863. Eclipse is now at $296,649,934. Both films hit the $250M mark on the 16th day. The total domestic gross for New Moon was $296,623,634 (after 132 days). Eclipse has now broken that total by $26,600 (after 51 days). The film is now within striking distance of the elusive $300M mark. It needs about $3.35M to get to that number. It took New Moon 21 more days to earn an additional $3.35M after its 51st day, and Eclipse is clearly doing better. On the other hand, New Moon was still in 1,167 theaters after 51 days while Eclipse drops to 557 tomorrow. Still, even after New Moon’s theater count had dropped to 444 (after 63 days) it still went on to take in another $3.8M. Therefore, it should take no more than one more month for Eclipse to earn another $3.35M and pass $300M.
Now wouldn’t be a bad time to start planning for your DVD release parties. The street dates for Twilight and New Moon were both on day 121 of their theatrical runs (Saturdays). Following that line of thinking, Eclipse’s 121st day will be October 28th, a Thursday. The following Saturday would be October 30th — Halloween weekend. On the other hand, sources have told me that Summit is planning for a holiday season release — some say November while others say Christmas time.

Snooki Comments On Kristen’s Best Kiss Nominations
One of the hottest categories (literally) at Sunday’s 2010 MTV Movie Awards will be Best Kiss, and there’s plenty of lip-smacking smooches to drool over.
Kristen Stewart has two chances to pick up some Golden Popcorn in the coveted category, as she’s nominated for her kisses with Dakota Fanning in “The Runaways” and with Robert Pattinson in “The Twilight Saga: New Moon.”
“Jersey Shore” starlet Snooki knows a thing or two about locking lips, but even she was shocked at the amount of action Kristen got onscreen. “And I’m the whore!” she told MTV News when asked which Kristen kiss was hottest.
She even predicted some trouble for the (rumored) “Twilight” couple if the “Runaways” kiss takes home the gold. “If Kristen wins with Dakota, Rob is going to be very jealous,” she said. “But, you know, maybe he’ll be a little excited!”
