"Yeah, you know, that movie typically is like for 10-year-olds, but I mean the visual of him sitting in front of his couch..." Taylor explained. "I'm sure you know his little kids enjoy it but it's pretty funny, it's a funny thought."

"Meantime the Twilight series," Ann said. "Are you ready for them to come to an end?"

"It is weird to think we're done filming completely. We'll be able to promote them together for the next year and a half or so," the actor said. "That's great. We have an awesome time together. We've become so close over the past four years, but it is a different feeling to know that we're done making them."
