Stars from the Twilight Saga Series have made two of Moviefones top 10 lists -The Top 10 Movie Entertainers of 2009, and Top 10 Breakout Stars of 2009. Here’s the details, brought to our attention by a tweet from Summit:
Under the category of Top 10 Movie Entertainers, we placed #3!
 3. Kristen Stewart, Rob Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner
Whether we were on Team Edward or Team Jacob, a lot of us couldn’t stop talking all year about ‘Twilight,’ and how last year’s initial installment had whetted our appetite for the vampire/werewolf/teen-girl triangle to come. The stakes were high, but the anticipation paid off in ‘New Moon.’ In a year where pop culture everywhere seemed to be crawling with vampires, these neckbiters were the ones we couldn’t stop obsessing over.
And, for Top 10 Breakout Stars, Saga actors placed #7, Anna Kendrick, and #1, Taylor Lautner:
 7. Anna Kendrick
Anna Kendrick has a lot going for her. She co-stars in that hit film series ‘Twilight,’ and just snagged a National Board of Review prize for her naively overconfident, quick-witted turn as a newbie firing-agent in Jason Reitman’s ‘Up in the Air.’ At only 24, Kendrick has proved to be a mighty talent in both comedy and drama, garnering a heap of Oscar buzz going toe-to-toe with George Clooney in ‘Air.’
1. Taylor Lautner
Royally buffing up as the shapeshifting werewolf Jacob Black in the sequel ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon,’ Taylor Lautner redefines teenage hunk in his breakout role. Graduating from Bella’s long-haired admirer in the first film, Lautner is able to flex his muscles, quite literally, with a much larger, brooding part in the second vampire flick. There is a reason why Taylor beat out the rest of the notable names on this list for the top spot: sheer box office brawn. The Twihards have spoken: Team Jacob all the way — well, for now at least.
Congratulations to Rob, Kristen, Taylor, Anna and the entire Twilight Saga, cast, crew, and author! It has been such a great year for the Saga. Just think what next year will bring with Eclipse premiering and Breaking Dawn on the horizon!
