Taylor Lautner was interviewed by Rolling Stone for the magazine’s upcoming December issue, and he discusses New Moon, his character Jacob Black, and THE ECLIPSE TENT SCENE, people.

An excerpt:

Then she even says she loves you.
That’s why Eclipse was actually my favorite of the series. It’s the height of the love triangle. I think it’s going to be good. That tent scene is the biggest thing possible. She’s cold and I’m hot, so [since vampires are cold], are you going to let me crawl in the sleeping bag with her, or are you just going to let her die?

That’s what I mean. Why don’t you be like, “You guys stay there. I will get you an extra blanket so you can stay warm?” Or, “I’ll turn into a wolf and go skin some animals and make you a blanket.”
No, no, no. Oh my.

That said, I understand the book’s appeal: it’s a great fantasy for someone to have two powerful good-looking guys who can have anybody fighting over her. It’s a classic romance, with fangs and fur heightening it.
Definitely. And I admit proudly that I enjoyed the series. I was not a book reader at all. But then when I read them, they hook you. I feel like each book, and more so the movies, are just getting more exciting and better and better. With New Moon, you know, it’s not just the love story between these two anymore. Now there are three people, and it’s dangerous.

My favorite part of the interview:

What do you think of the whole part about Jacob’s “brother” imprinting on a two-year-old and falling in love with her, then keeping her around until she’s of proper age? Isn’t that a little weird?
Yeah, yeah. Let’s not go there.

This isssue is in stores now, so keep an eye out for it while you’re doing your holiday shopping!

As an extra treat, here’s a video of Taylor during his *ahem* active Rolling Stone photoshoot:
