"I love movies like Juno, but I don't want to write Juno."

Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg recently when asked what her future plans entail, and what goals she has for the entertainment industry, specifically involving women.

So what exactly does Rosenberg have in mind, and how might Kristen Stewart be involved?

Melissa spoke at USC last week and told her audience she plans to start her own production company. She wants to call it Tall Girls Productions.

The screenwriter, whose credits aside from Twilight also include Dexter and The O.C., said she wants to create "strong female characters in big action movies."

Aside from Robsten's "lightning"-like chemistry, Rosenberg also wasn't shy in expressing her admiration for Ms. Stewart and what an awesome woman and actress she thinks K.Stew is. M.R. told her audience that she wants Tall Girls to create films that offer great roles for women, kind of like Iron Man—but in reverse.

So anyone thinking what we are here?

Maybe Melissa should save Wanted 2! It's clear that Rosenberg thinks Kristen is the shiz, so how 'bout another collaboration, featuring Rob's GF as an independent, stereotype-defying superhero, or antihero?

Would you see a movie like that?
