Werewolf fight!
Alex Meraz, a member of the hunky, shirtless wolf pack in New Moon, isn't afraid to bear his fangs at his famous costar Taylor Lautner.
See Taylor, Rob, Kristen and the gang have their big red carpet moment
Meraz, 25, took to his Twitter account to play armchair critic for Valentine's Day, the romantic comedy in which Lautner stars with the likes of Taylor Swift, Jennifer Garner, Jessica Biel, Julia Roberts, Bradley Cooper, Jessica Alba and others superstars. Meraz hasn't seen the film -- but calls the preview "lame and desperate."
He Tweeted late Wednesday: "Sorry Taylor but the movie 'valentines day" looks lame and desperate it cries out 'look we have all the biggest starz in 1movie pleez watch!'"
Who's dated who from the Twilight films? Catch up on their love lives
Like many vicious Tweeters before him, Meraz backtracked just an hour later, writing, "P.S. it has nothing to do with the talented actors in the movie I just don't like the producer & Directors 'get rich quick skeem' nuff said."
New Moon stars then and now: see how they've changed
And one hour after that: "talk about biting the hand that feeds me..but I'm a wolf for crying out loud! I'll be careful next time I spill twitter all over everyone."
The outspoken actor will next appear in Eclipse, the third Twilight series film, out this June.
See how Taylor Lautner bulked up
Valentine's Day -- in which Lautner shares a kiss with Taylor Swift -- hits theaters Feb. 12.
Tell Us What You Think
74and on steroids.
aaah i love alex meraz!!!! he is way cuter than taylor but taylor is still cute....
Truth is, this movie is just a blatant rip-off of the wonderful British film "Love Actually" which is set at Christmas time, and features several of Britain's top actors. I wouldn't waste my time or money on Valentines Day and think it looks like a pile of self-serving drek. Can't fault someone else who thinks it's crap.
Jealous much? He think he is all that when Twilight was lame and desperate. One of the crappiest movie ever.
awww taylors sooooo peng mmmm
Alex is a total sweet heart who cares about taylor.. what he was saying is vday is a chick flick and has far to many big names in it. I AGREE
NOOO he's not dissing Taylor Lautner he's didssing the movie!!! duh!!! God people r soo retarted!!

wtf! taylor is way hotter than that other guy watever his name is!taylor is hotter just look at him!
Well thats the business, the producers are smart because they know the movie will make a lot of money. Theres a lot of different actors in there people love.
Alex is right. Anyone with half a brain can see that the producers of this movie thought, "Let's throw as many famous people as we can find in one movie to get peoples money" and you suckers are buying it. And he didn't diss Taylor, or any of the actors, just the premise of the film which is indeed desperate. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. And agree with @lmao! You are hilarious.
he's so cute!!!
he's so cute!!!
