Did you miss it? Perhaps you did.

We got Jessica Alba, Bradley Cooper, Anne Hathaway, Ashton Kutcher, Jessica Biel and a ton of other stars showing off their rom-com chops. Including former lovebirds Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner.

For the two pretty teens, this film lit the spark in their once-fiery relationship (Tay-Squared, anyone?). So you can guess how freakin’ interested we were when a certain knowledgeable source dropped a hint about the film’s upcoming sequel, New Year’s Eve…

Turns out it features an all-new cast of characters (quick, somebody call Jennifer Aniston, and please nobody tell Gerard Butler). Unless, of course, one particular starlet is asked to stay—none other than darling Swift!

“They were thinking about having Taylor Swift be in college at NYU,” whispers one of our sneakiest sources (who’s directly involved with the sequel project). “They were throwing her name out there a while back.”

If this is comes to pass, Taylor would probably be the one single cast member returning for the sequel, with the exception of director Garry Marshall mainstay favorite Hector Elizondo, who would return as the grandfather figure.

That’s great and stuff, but what’s burning on our minds is, would the other half of Tay-Squared also make a return appearance in the sequel?

“I don’t think Taylor Lautner would come back,” sassed our source. “They only mentioned Taylor Swift, and she’s not even in right now.”

The chances are slim of both toothy types returning, but ooh, we can just imagine the gooey stuff that would be an on-screen Taylor-Taylor reunion! Can’t you?!

Finally, with the lack of Taylor news, I’ve been able to add these!

Some of these are ours, and some of these are credit to TaylorSwiftWeb.Net!

“Taylor [Swift] was quite good in the movie and Taylor Lautner too,” he told MTV News about the kiss in the movie, which is out on DVD and Blu-Ray this Tuesday. “Taylor Swift is quite competitive. I said, ‘You know there’s a prize for best kiss? … So we might as well try for it.’ And Taylor Lautner kind of hid at the craft-service place. He didn’t want to get involved. Anyway, he went along with it. We did one in the movie, which was pretty good, but then we did a whole shot of a best kiss that was pretty good.”

Considering the fact that their parts were added to “Valentine’s Day” at the last minute, the duo’s willingness to dive into their work was a big bonus, the director said. “When they got there, there was nothing really written,” Marshall explained. “They weren’t in the original script, so we did a whole thing with them and worked with them. They did a good job. They’re both brave, they’ll try anything. He did high hurtles [to play a track star], which is not easy, and he insisted on doing his own stunts. I said, ‘If you get hurt, somebody from “Twilight” is gonna call me up, but I’m a gambler. We’ll probably only do this once.’ And he did it good.

“They both have good star power,” added Marshall, who is working on the movie’s sequel, “New Year’s Eve,” due out December 9, 2011. “And they did get along for whatever the reason. It came out very well. I was very pleased.”

Turns out Gary wasn’t surprised that two of his most high profile young stars got together during filming. “That happens with young people,” he said. “I usually always start with kissing or they worry about it the whole time. We did like five, six takes. And the first take was a little uncomfortable. By the sixth take, they were dating! Life happens like that.”

But for those hoping for Tay and Tay to make an appearance — and get back together — in “New Year’s Eve,” we’re sorry to crush your dreams. Gary said that, with the exception of Hector Elizondo, it doesn’t looking like any of the original cast will be returning for the sequel.

“I have a script,” he revealed. “I did a rewrite. We’re rewriting it now. … It’s supposed to shoot in New York in September. It’s supposed to be a similar cast of a number of stars. It’s written like that, but we hope to get all new stars except for Hector Elizondo, who has to be in all my movies. So he’s gonna play a guy you’ll never recognize.”

So who is he eying for a role in the film? Apparently Reese Witherspoon and Halle Berry are high on his list, but Warner Bros. has another ultra-hot young star in mind. “Already, they’re mentioning Justin Beiber,” he admitted. “I have no idea who that is. Perhaps I’d better see who he is, so when he arrives on set, possibly [we can talk]. So we’ll see.”

Who would you want to see in “New Year’s Eve”? Do you think Justin would be a good choice?

“Taylor did all of his own stunts, even that fall he took while running on the track field,” a Valentine’s Day insider dished to HollywoodLife.com exclusively. “But that’s Taylor.”

If you haven’t seen the movie yet, Taylor plays Willy, a high school track & field star who’s out to impress his cheerleader girlfriend, Felicia (Taylor Swift). While the couple is being interviewed for a local news program, Taylor L. shows off by doing a series of flips and tricks that looks worthy of an Olympic gold.

“Taylor is super-advanced at gymnastics,” our source said. “He learned it for karate…he’s like a ninja!”

No wonder Taylor Swift, 20, fell for her co-star during the shoot in July 2009…it was love at first flip!

OK, so Citizen Kane this was not — nor was it even Love Actually, actually. But Valentine’s Day, which starred pretty much every star ever to appear on HollywoodLife.com, was exactly what women wanted at the movies over the Prez Day Weekend and on V-Day itself, and they bought $65 million worth of tickets to prove it, Deadline.com reports. So what if the critics battered it like a heart-shaped pinata? As Taylor Swift’s character in the flick would put it: Whatever.

Just like with New Moon and Dear John, young women totally ignored the critical opprobrium and went to see Valentine’s Day, despite its mostly silly dialogue, completely cut-and-paste plot development, and — oh, wait, was that Eric Dane’s bronzed chest? And Taylor Lautner doing backflips in a muscle shirt? And blonde Jessica Alba in a pair of sweet Louboutin pumps? Just like that box of chocolates most of them got sometime during the weekend, nutritive value was of no consequence.

As such, V-Day and Dear John and, still, Avatar made this four-day Presidents’ Weekend the highest-grossing ever, with $230 million in box office. Way to go girls!

But the love goes both ways; nestled among Valentine’s Day’s multifarious plot lines is a love letter to the city and industry that made Marshall powerful enough to rally this kind of cast. He gives us a tour of Los Angeles’ scenic locations, from the canals of Venice to the sandy beaches of Malibu, with a dash of the urban thrown in: the Flower Market, Dodger Stadium and a street sign for No Ho, the cutesy name for the decidedly not cute North Hollywood. The script, by Katherine Fugate (Army Wives), also serves as a tour of the various components of the Hollywood dream factory. The characters include a cutthroat agent (Queen Latifah), an actress/poet (Anne Hathaway) who moonlights as a phone-sex operator and a neurotic publicist (Jessica Biel) whose most important client is a famous quarterback (Eric Dane). The cast runs the generational gamut, from teen pop star Taylor Swift, playing (rather charmingly) a high school dork, to the 75-year-old MacLaine, one of cinema’s reigning grand dames. It’s a small part, but MacLaine gets a romantic scene to cherish, necking with Hector Elizondo while her lovely, fresh young self — in footage from her 1958 film Hot Spell — is projected behind them at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. (More travelogue: the venue really does show old movies outdoors at night.)

The closest thing Valentine’s Day has to a lead is Ashton Kutcher, whom I’d have thought an implausible choice to anchor anything much more than a vehement Twitter response to the impetuous Meraz. But Kutcher is surprisingly endearing as Reed, a sweet florist trying to survive the busiest day of the year while negotiating his own love life with fiancée (Jessica Alba) and the complicated affairs of his best friend Julia (Jennifer Garner). Julia is dating Grey’s Anatomy’s Patrick Dempsey, who plays (what else?) a surgeon. Garner and Kutcher are so alike in looks — warm brown eyes, chiseled features and dimply smiles — that I mistook their characters for siblings. Hathaway and the Robertses — both Julia and her niece Emma, here playing a nanny to a lovesick little boy — could fit into that family as well. Clearly Garry Marshall has a type.

Even with all these characters buzzing about, Valentine’s Day is mainly a movie structured around moments, a few of them genuinely funny or surprising but most of the Hallmark variety. As a result, we never grow particularly attached to any of these people, but we’d like them to at least have a nice day. Yes, that is the most banal sentiment available, but that’s the kind of mood the movie puts you in.
