My Chemical Romance Want Nothing To Do With New Moon!
Filed under: Music Minute > Film Flickers > Twilight > Gerard Way
After covering Bob Dylan's Desolation Row for the upcoming Watchman film, My Chemical Romance are thinking about scoring films on the side - but not the Twilight sequel!
"We're very choosy… There were a few films that we didn't do the song for because it didn't fit. I guess a lot of people would say that a vampire movie would fit, but I would disagree with that these days… I don't know if we'd be interested in that," explained MCR frontman Gerard Way when asked about scoring New Moon.
You don't know what you're missing out on, boys!!
A goldmine in waiting, perhaps???

They covered Dylan?Hmmmmmmmmmm-Not so sure about that-who's going to cover dyaln Next-Lady Gaga?
lookie who woke up
Nobody wants to be associated with Something Madonnas old hag ass is sinking her teeth into. these guys are more classy
They're fucking dumb!~
That's money bags for them.
Some people don't like to sell out like you do Perez.
As much as I love MCR to bits and pieces, it is ultimately their decision.
Besides, they already did a vampire movie since a remix of one of their songs was on the "Underworld:Evolution" soundtrack.
Make us another great album, boys!
THEY AREN'T SELLING OUT? shouldn't you be praising them as you did for the twilight director? stupiddddd post
smart man
.
dont jump on the band wagon like everyone else
.
i love the series but the movies are a disgrace!
I'm proud of them for not selling out.
Even though I don't really listen to them
Good for them. I love My Chemical Romance!
this is fucking old news perez.
OLD NEWS. I read this on Oh No They Didn't two days ago. I like you Perez, but your content is disappointing. You never report anything first anymore
Good. i have a sort of love/hate relationship with twilight and still haven't worked out whether i actually like it. but i do know i love MCR and i'm proud of them for doing what they love and selling out
and i love desolation row
They're fucking losers anyway and if they didn't want to do it then its best they said no.
i hate these fucking emos
I love MCR, and so I think its good for them NOT to accept this role. They are above this "vampire" hype.
Gerard loves vampires so much that I bet he was offended by meyer's so-called vampires
well i love gee
and i dont think theres nothing
worng with him not wanting to be part
of new moon..
i read some where or heard it that he dosnt really care bout the money..
so just like W.Eva
They made the right choice ! (:
Selling out to something like Twilight is just plain stupid ,
MCR would NEVER do that !
Re: medicallyfucked – You have a love/hate relationship with Twilight, yet you put Jasper Cullen in your icon? Just fess up to your love like the rest of us losers. It doesn't make you less of a human as long as you keep your feet on the ground and like it for the right reasons. I'm not ashamed—-Yes, my name is New_Yawk_Punk and I am a Twihard.
P.S. I stopped liking MCR when Mikey got lasic. Now they're all ugly.
Re: RedWingsFan – Sharks 3-1 over Atlanta! I need another mojito, see ya!
I liked their cover of Desolation Road, you can get it on itunes from the Watchmen Soundtrack. They were just interviewed by MTV and they said they'd love to do a song or have an old son in the New Moon Soundtrack.
maybe they actually wanted to be in new moon, but the producers didnt want them. ( i love twilight and i sure dont want them in new moon … ) sooooo their just covering up
but anyways im glad they wont be in it ! woo (:
I respect them even more now.
this story is so old perezy. if you're going to jump onto the twilight saga bandwagon you gotta keep up with the news
they're successful enough already, they don't need twilight's money!!!
thank god they realize their image is more important than money. they're all over hot topic anyway, they don't need anymore shitty tween exposure.
pssh we dont need u for new moon
Re: Zippedychick – it's desolation ROW. dumbass. ROW. not ROAD.
My Chemical Romance covering Dylan? Say it ain't so!
the soundtrack for twilight was nothing special. i love mcr and met gerard way in milwaukee once…he's kinda a weirdo, they should do a song for Eclipse, not New Moon.
well i neva liked them—
i'm a little confused - my chemical romance still exist?
i have read the books (after i saw twilight) - and i think the film is better.. buut new moon was/is a really great book, though all those wolves are a little annoying.. and i like the OST - so, i guess - bad for them, cause there are films that suck with OSTs that are fabulous or with even songs which are - but to be honest - i'm really glad they decided no to be emovampires.
they dont want to sell out?? surreee and what about the black parade??
too much drugs Gerard!
maybe a couple of weeks in rehab will be good for you sweetheart!
Re: epic – yeah… unfortunately still exist
They're not going to sell out for that shitty movie. Good!
love MCR!!!! Gerard Way is so hottt!!!!!!
i really hate people like this…
wouldn't you want to make money?
that's ridiculous…perez you must watch the south park episode when they make fun of twilight its hilarious
uuuhhhhh Lame I LOVE MCR AND NEW MOON!:(
gosh i love mcr- even more that i love twilight, to be honest twilight is too much of a tween movie for them,
Re: paulina=dan radcliffe fan #1 – MCR is not emo anyway emo means emotional- if your an artist and you cant be emotional then what the fuck? but i know the way you meant and honestly your a screwed indivigual, what do you listen to? some pop shit? go do yourself
xx
Idiots! And it's WatchMEN btw.
I saw this yesterday, and I will say it again: They all deserve high-fives currently.
Re: ButtercupMoon – They're better than New Moon anyway, sweetheart.
Re: 1emokid – fan girls make me sick
Unlike you Perez, some people are motivated by other things besides money.
I love Twilight and I love MCR. They are totally right about the whole thing not being like them. Btw: Dylan cover is awesome, sounds nothing like Dylan but is awesome!
it may be a goldmine, but it still SUCKS. good for them, they have artistic standards. it's not always about the money, perez. altho you aren't any kind of artist, so i guess you don't understand that concept.
it's called integrity Perez. something you wouldn't comprehend.
Good for them. Always great to know they've still got good heads on their shoulders. Besides, I can't see them doing anything for any soundtrack that isn't somehow comic book-based. It's just how those geeks roll.
Re: RedWingsFan – It's actually a really fantastic cover.
I LOVE MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE!
Whatever they do or don't it's fine w/ me!
Watchman? Really, Perez? Try WatchMEN.
i'm glad they said no.
wouldn't want their shit music ruining new moon.
x
Re: Amanda Says – no they're not dumb, they're not a band that's in it for the money, they're in it for the music. i think its great there not in new moon, they dont need more fan girls who just because the band is linked to twilight get into them, thats what happened to paramore loads of people just suddenly like them. so yeah, i love mcr
WHAT?!?!?! NOOO!!!!! I LOVE MCR AND TWILIGHT!!! THEY SHOULD DEFINITELY DO MUSIC FOR THE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!
They don't know what they're missing out on. Oh well.
I'd rather have a band, like Paramore, who loves twilight be on the soundtrack!
Go paramore!
Do I hear Diva?
HARRY POTTER!
Re: New Yawk Punk – So you only listen to My Chemical Romance because of their looks?
Love My Chemical Romance!
They should have cashed in while they still have a career, I remember when corey hart was offered a 1 million dollar offer from pepsi in the 80's, he rejected it then in a couple of years his career was over. Tweens are fickle.
I LOVE MCR
& i really don't care if they don't do a song for the new twilight movie..
i don't even like twilight to begin with
i'll love them for whatever decisions they make
Re: Pattinson –
hahahaha he is a totally an undercover diva!
he must be paris's bff not brittany!
awwwww u mean they wnt have the sng vampires will never hurt u on the soundtrack. damn=(
mcr is amazing so who cares, they r already doing watchmen
This makes me respect Gerard and MCR even more. Fuckin' A. This is why they are my heroes.
Of course, YOU wouldn't understand this at all because you, Perez Hilton, are basically a whore out for cash, not artistic integrity. But, thankfully, there are still some artists out there who aren't motivated by greed. Way to go, MCR. The Twilight series is some seriously BAD crap and I wouldn't want to be associated with that shitty fad, either. I bet Stephenie Meyer is throwing a tantrum right now. She thinks she's so hip because she listens to Muse and suffers from the same delusion of musical grandeur that Perez suffers from.
THANK GOD THEY AREN'T DOING NEW MOON!!!
They won't be missing out on anything!!
It's a smart move for them and I'm very proud of them for NOT SELLING OUT!
I love MyChem and this just gave me a higher respect for Gerard Way and the rest of the band.
They are being pickey and I think its because they dont want some fan girls (and you) to get overly obsessed like the fan girls (and you) are doing with Twilight.
Watchmen is gonna be amazing and i cant wait!!
You give the Twilight saga too much praise (more than it deserves)
The books are okay… they are not books that blew me away and i think you give them (especially Robert Pattinson) too much praise because you think he's hot.
News Flash- HE'S NOT THAT HOT you idiot!! there are millions of guys that are hotter than he is!
I just needed to see if i could put some sense into your head.
and i don't think New Moon would be that good… sequels are never that good
Watch, when one of their movies takes a turn for the worse, you're gonna be bad mouthing the Twilight cast and their books.
he's a loser
They should be applauded for this, it's nice to see a band that actually cares about music and isn't only interested in making a pretty penny. I have the upmost respect for them for not jumping on the Twilight band wagon just to make a little extra cash. Bravo My Chemical Romance!
When are people going to realize My Chemical Romance is not in the business for fame, money, and glory? They're in it to help people and to do what they love. They wouldn't sell out, and even if they did, they wouldn't sell out to something as fucking stupid as Twilight.
eh.. they're kinda right.. their style fits but idk bout the songs that they write..
especially new moon.. too sad for them..
Gerard Way is genius.
they're missing out on big money but it's thier choice
Why the hell does it matter?
My Chemical Romance don't want in on New Moon, deal with it!
Just becuase they didn't jump on the bandwagon and sell out doesn't mean anything.
Re: mcfearless – Totally agree.
Wow, they have more taste and integrity than I would've thought.
Perez I love you, but this is really old news. xD
They should read the book! Not that they would love it, but mabye understand it… And then they might change their mind… Love them, but love New Moon too!
Aha.
i think they made the right desicion.
i'm a huge mcr fan and also a huge twilight fan,but i think they just wouldn't match.
I find this hilarious. They're choosy all of a sudden? Does anyone recall House of Wax? Craptastic movie, definitely featured MCR on soundtrack. Just sayin'
im glad they're individual and dont just wanna do new moon coz of the huge fan base and for attention….like the jonas brothers…i mean EW IF THOSE CHEESY POP BOYS ARE IN NEW MOON THERE IS NO WAY IM WATCHING OR LISTENING TO IT DESPITE BEING A HUGEEEE TWILIGHT FAN…COZ PEOPLE ARE JUST RUINING IT
.
TWILIGHT IS TWILIGHT….STOP TRYING TO DISNEY-FY IT U DISNEY LOT
Re: Aimee999 – twilight is dumb. theyre just trying to make it less dumb…which is impossible….because its dumb….worst series ever but the movie was hilarious it was like they weren't serious at all…which i dont blame them cause the books are dumb
There's no character development at all, and the protaganist, Bella Swan, would die without Edward, which leaves some of us to believe that she may, in fact, be a zombie due to the fact that she probably died sometime before the story even took place (thanks to her knack for falling in front of cars and other bullshit).
This book is so bad that I actually couldn't stomach to read it. I read more of Jane Austen than I did of Twilight. And I hate Jane Austen.
Read this if you want to look like an idiot in front of someone who isn't.
Example of a conversation about a good book:
That was awesome, it really left me thinking differently and feeling differently… I think it really did make a difference/imprint/something.
Example of a conversation about Twilight:
EDWARD IS SOOOOOO HAAAWWWTTT
THANK GOD. I love this band, they say they won't sell out and they mean it. It's such a breath of fresh air. And their version of Desolation Row rocks! Love it, love them.
I'm glad they said no to new moon that shit sucks ass i hate twilight i tried to read the book but i couldnt stand it i was wasting my time with that piece of shit
they don't want to sell out…understandable. It is a fad…they don't want to become one too!!
Good for them!
They covered Dylan for Watchmen recently because they love Watchmen.
They had two songs in House of Wax which was horrible, so I'm glad they don't do just anything again
They don't have to. If they don't like it they don't like it. People forget that not everyone LOVES twilight.
we don't want you
in new moon anyways
Re: Jezzebelle luvz Chelsea Handler –
If you had paid any attention to what's going with the Madonna situation, you'd know that that was a lie. Madonna's hag ass never said anything about doing New Moon.
Why would they say such a thing? If I was famous I would love for them to have "my" song on such a popular movie.
thank god.
twilight doesn't need more emo in their audience
it's already embarrassing enough that i like the same thing as half of all emos, fat girls who have never kissed a guy and 12 year old teenie boppers.
but ALL the emos and all of that added on?
that would be waaayyy too much for me to take
good job my chemical romance, stay away, i'd rather madonna than fags wearing eyeliner
I doubt that any member of this band knows all the key signatures, much less how to score a film.
I ADORE MCR!!!!!!!!!!
I WUD KILL FOR THEM
THEY R SOO AWESOME
AND NOT! EMO..>.
who the fuck would want to be associated with this shit? Pff… The book sucks, the movie sucks, the actor sucks.
To all Meyer's fanboys (and mostly fangirls), go read some real writers instead of this poor written fanfic.
MY CHEMICLA ROMANCE R SO AWESOME
BUT I THINK THEY NEED TO CONSIDER THAT ABOUT NEW MOON
COME ON
THANKS TO THEM EXIST THAT BOOK
:s
THE END
meh, these bitches have their merchandise selling at Fucking Hot TRopics in every mall in america right next to the Cullen Family Crest wristbands…lol Way to go not selling out–Hot Topic Bitches! Edward Cullen likes hip hop anyways- everyone knows Andre 3000 should score New Moon.
