Summit Gives the Counter-Gift to Rob and Kristen

Twilight First Kiss

VF Shoot for Twilight Promotion

Summit Entertainment was at the edge of the financial abyss when they cast and shot Twilight. Kristen Stewart and Rob Pattinson gave the GIFT of LIFE to Summit Entertainment.

Old Chinese Proverb
Beware before you save a life.

And of course Nietzsche's  detailed genealogy of God breathing the Gift of Life into man in his Genealogy of Morals.

Because when you give the GIFT of LIFE the recipient incurs a DEBT that can never be repaid. Never.
And this DEBT weighs heavy. It can never be repaid.

The GIFT must be answered then with the 
COUNTER-GIFT.
The Counter-gift need not be repaid right away, but it must be greater than the Gift. Or the receiver must suicide.

THE COUNTER-GIFT
Fabricated from scratch, photoshopped images of Kristen Stewart "cheating" with Rupert Sanders
Summit Entertainment and Its Cash Cow Named Robsten
Rob Pattinson will be ruined just before his promotion of Cosmopolis as he will be seen as betrayed - a cuckhold. Kristen will be ruined as "cheating" on the HeartThrob of the world, so she will be reviled and hated. The connections between Summit and the tabloids will ensure that this infamy continues to rage right up until the promotion of Breaking Dawn 2.
The tabloids USWeekly and People who received the "SCANDAL" will get as a reward, the  exclusive first rights for Breaking Dawn 2 promotion pieces.

Robsten will be destroyed. Rob and Kristen will be forced by their contracts to appear together for this promotion, tortured by betrayal and grief, pretending to be lovers in the film.
A very unhappy, sad ending which will increase the box office receipts another hundred million. 




 All in all an excellent COUNTER-GIFT-
PERFECT.

And Rob in his
Crinkly Green Gucci Money Machine Suit
Both of them are exposing Summit's exploitation of their love and sexual relationship for hundreds of millions of

Consider Pearl harbor. This was the Gift. The Atomic bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima were the Counter-Gift. One began the war and the CG ended the war. Symmetrical. They were not returned right away and they were much greater than the Gift. Surprise  in both. We have heard over and over that we did it to end the war sooner and save American lives. And that was true in the Order of Production. But the Symbolic Order must be obeyed.

Baudrillard for Bella






There exists, between people in love, a kind of capital held by each. This is not just a stock of affects or pleasure, but also the possibility of playing double or quits with the share you hold in the other's heart  _ Jean Baudrillard


(Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929), French semiologist. Cool Memories, ch. 3 (1987, trans. 1990).)

And Bella in New Moon page 216:

Even more, I had never meant to love him. One thing I truly knew_ knew it in the pit of my stomach, in the center of my bones, knew it from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet, knew it deep in my empty chest_was how love gave someone the power to break you......I'd been broken beyond repair.

In Defense of Kristen Stewart On NOT Smiling




Smile and others will smile back. Smile to show how transparent, how candid you are. Smile if you have nothing to say. Most of all, do not hide the fact you have nothing to say nor your total indifference to others. Let this emptiness, this profound indifference shine out spontaneously in your smile. - Jean Baudrillard

What truth are our faces allowed to tell/show today? Think of how men instruct women to smile while they’re walking down the street. If Hollywood and mass media are any indication, nothing is faked and enacted more these days than a face, especially a woman’s. A woman’s face is something she has to fake almost all of the time—from the wearing of make-up to the surgical enhancement and modification of facial features, to the lightening of eyes and skin, to the concealment of age, to the facial expressions we make or don’t make. Faking is not only the modality par excellence of late modernity, the fake/r (not the real or original, as Abbas Kiarostami’s Certified Copy demonstrates) is the thing to imitate and strive for. And based on the 21st century fiction and artifice of celebrity consumer culture, there is no greater truth than a successful lie. Than a lie that functions and succeeds in public, even if and especially when it inevitably performs its disclosure-as-lie and breakdown-of-truth as just another show (Reality TV). The lie (or the secret of ideology) is no longer something to conceal, for, in the era of cynicism and instant commodification, dissemblance is the only truth worth telling (living). Truth, along with reality, is merely a performance, and vice versa, performance is reality.
Before we believed that a lie was the truth, we believed that what we were seeing was real, which means we believed what we were told. The fiction was not meant to be interpreted purely as fantasy or pure-fantasy, but as the ultimate-real. However, now that we know that the fiction is a lie, that the truth is a lie, we have learned to approach it as such. We live in the name of truth, even though, and because we know, the name of truth is fiction. We tell ourselves that it’s not that we have a more dishonest or corrupt relationship to truth, it’s that we have a different kind of relationship with the lie. That is, with the staging of truth.
