The Year in New Moon: A Movieline Timeline

July

· July 10: With Comic-Con quickly advancing, fanboys declare war on the icky girl germs set to infect what has long been a mostly XY-bechromosomed nerdfest. Fanboys declare themselves victorious when the New Moon panel is moved to earlier in the day.

· July 21: "Give us one over the shoulder, Taylor! That's it! Right there!"

· July 23: Movieline sneaks into Comic-Con's storied Hall H, plants its flag, awaits the madness to come. Our field reporting reveals New Moon fans are -- gasp -- also curious about Avatar.

· July 23: The New Moon panel is louder and more insane than we could have ever imagined. These teenage girls screaming "TAKE IT OFF!!!" demonstrate an aggro sense of entitlement that chilled us to the bone. They will cut you. Watch our footage -- especially the last five seconds. And be afraid. Be very afraid.

· July 24: Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart play Movieline's My Favorite Scene.

· July 30: Au revoir, Rachelle. Rachelle Lefevre is fired from the series, to be replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard. Rachelle says she is "stunned" and "saddened." Summit snaps back that her taking of a part in tiny indie film Barney's Version brought upon the scheduling conflict that led to her dismissal. We don't buy it.

August

· Aug. 11: Introducing the Twilight Barbie collection. Forks Barbie Vampire Dreamwagon sold separately.

September

· Sep. 14: The second trailer arrives, offering Robert Pattinson sans shirt and our first glimpses of Dakota Fanning and Michael Sheen. OMG indeed.

· Sept. 21: An awkward morning-after moment between Robert Pattinson and his she-wolf co-star is captured during the LA Times's set exclusive.
