The Next Reel Film Podcast

We continue our struggle with Bella’s decision – will she choose Jacob or will she stick with Edward? We’re here for it. Join us as we continue our journey through the film adaptations of Stephenie Meyer’s series in our conversation about Chris Weitz’s 2009 film “The Twilight Saga: New Moon.”

Show Notes

“I guess the wolf’s out of the bag.”

Bella’s plight continues – who will she choose? We’re here for it!
Bella continues pining for Edward long after he’s moved away, but Jacob’s there for her. That’s right, we’re talking about vampires, werewolves, Volturi and more! Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue our journey through the Twilight series in our discussion about Chris Weitz’ 2009 film The Twilight Saga: New Moon.

Here’s a hint at what we talk about.
Kristen Stewart’s acting is tough, but is it her or Stephenie Meyer’s dialogue and romance novel elements? What about Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner? How about the Shakespearean elements? What do we think of the werewolves? And the effects? How is Weitz as the new director for the film? Do we like the romance? Or prefer the expanded lore? And how does Desplat do with the music? And the biggest question of all – are we on Team Jacob or Team Edward?

So much smoldering romance, blood, wolves, and fantastic Italian architecture! We’re here for it. Check it out then tune in! The Next Reel – when the movie ends, our conversation begins!

Andy Nelson
With over 25 years of experience in film, television, and commercial production, Andy has cultivated an enduring passion for storytelling in all its forms. His enthusiasm for the craft began in his youth when he and his friends started making their own movies in grade school. After studying film at the University of Colorado Boulder, Andy wrote, directed, and produced several short films while also producing indie features like Netherbeast Incorporated and Ambush at Dark Canyon. Andy has been on the production team for award-winning documentaries such as The Imposter and The Joe Show, as well as TV shows like Investigation Discovery’s Deadly Dentists and Nat Geo’s Inside the Hunt for the Boston Bombers. Over a decade ago, he started podcasting with Pete and immediately embraced the medium. Now, as a partner at TruStory FM, Andy looks forward to more storytelling through their wide variety of shows. Throughout his career, Andy has passed on his knowledge by teaching young minds the crafts of screenwriting, producing, editing, and podcasting. Outside of work, Andy is a family man who enjoys a good martini, a cold beer, a nice cup o’ joe. And always, of course, a great movie.

What is The Next Reel Film Podcast?

A show about movies and how they connect.
We love movies. We’ve been talking about them, one movie a week, since 2011. It’s a lot of movies, that’s true, but we’re passionate about origins and performance, directors and actors, themes and genres, and so much more. So join the community, and let’s hear about your favorite movies, too.
When the movie ends, our conversation begins.
