It seems like they have updated it to include a lot of information.

Yes I remember seeing the screenshots, but I hadn't read all that info.
Even so, good to repost for easy access.

How many careers are there in the film track? I think three (standard career, maybe with two paths, a part time career and one career for teenagers)... unfortunately it's not that clear from the simfans.de preview.

Well much like the Criminal or Police track or whatever in the base-game, there's two tracks in the film track. There's Actor, and Director. So when you get to level 7, I think, you get a choice depending on what your sim wants to be. Kids can act in movies, but it's only Teenagers that get part-time careers. There isn't any other careers for teenagers. Also, when you get past Level 7, you can choose weather you want to let journalists and the paparazzi into your household or not, which could be quite fun!
There's so much to Late Night, but acting and film directing and vampires and hot tubs and skyscrapers are high on my agenda.
Also, if you make a movie or act in one, it will be released at the Cinema. (Not the theatre, there's apparently and actual - well, more then one type - building for Movies specifically. So goodbye Theatre! ( :( However, you do get Theatres, and there's even a rumor about drive-in movies! Yay!)
Hope this helps.

Here is some new screenshots of Late Night.  There is also some information about that new world that someone built that looks identical to France in WA.  I think I will download it and see what it looks like. :)

I was just checking to see if anyone posted the new vampire pictures.  There is a new description of how the vamps will behave at the EA Sim site under community news. They sound fabulous.

Do you have a more direct link than that one? All I see are links to what looks like Sims 2, MySims, and SimAnimals. It's very odd, since above that it says "Producer's Blog on Vampire gameplay."

That's what it's supposed to be, The producer's blog. But that does sound odd that you got that other stuff. I found the story just by going to the EA Sim site, clicking on community, then clicking on news in the drop down menu. The story explained that the Vampires were NOT going to glitter, that they had special powers and were nothing like the ones from Sims 2.

Does anyone else find it really annoying when people keep making these comments like, "Oh they're just making the same expansion packs again to make more money again." ?  Seems like every time I read a preview of Late Night, some ignoramus has to make that comment.  Drives me nuts. 

Is World Adventures the same as Vacation?  No.

Is Ambitions the same as...as...any other expansion?  No.

Is Late Night the same as Superstar?  No.

I'm sorry if this sounds like a bit of a rant, I just can't help but wonder if these people who keep making these claims have even played the games...

Does anybody watch the Vampire Diaries? The vampires they describe remind me a lot of the vampires from the show. I am not a big vampire person normally but they sound quite intriguing. Just wondered if anyone else thought the same?

I thought they sounded more like vamps of most of the current literature, movies and TV.  Diaries, True Blood and others.

Very odd. Has anyone been back there lately to see if it's still up or if you're seeing what I'm seeing?

It does seem to be some what of a mixture but most of it reminds me of Vampire Diaries. I have not watched True Blood and I haven't read much either. I am only familiar with the Twilight series of both the books and the movies and then the show Vampire Diaries. Like I said I don't normally like vampires or vampire related things.

Yep, that's what I'm seeing. Weird. You'd think they'd keep things related to LN working since it's coming out in less than two weeks!
