Say what you will about the story and characters of Breaking Dawn – Part 1 (we certainly have…), it arguably looks to be the most technically-proficient entry in the Twilight franchise. Oscar-winning director Bill Condon’s decorated creative team – which includes director of photography Guillermo Navarro (Pan’s Labyrinth) and production designer Richard Sherman (Gods and Monsters) – look to have done justice by Meyer’s original novel. Twihards will certainly appreciate the stunning imagery of Bella and Edward intimately clutching one another beneath the cover of tropical moonlight – or Jacob, soaring through darkened woods as he races to protect Bella from an encroaching pack of werewolves.

Yes, it's going to be the lowest-grossing entry.

Yes, Stephenie Meyer's ego really went to shit.

The sad thing is, the In Name Only adaptation that Paramount wanted to do could have been a good movie. From what I read, the characters were better written and it was faithful to vampire mythology.

Thanks a lot, Meyer.

I might watch this one on DVD then, but I mostly want to see crowd reactions for the weird stuff so I don't think I'd feel too bad shelling out the $4.

I can't wait for the reviews.

Firstly, even though I know it's the convention now I'm amazed they broke this into two movies. It'll be interesting to see how they manage to stretch the story out, especially if part one is going to end with Bella giving birth.

Secondly, do you reckon they're going to create an epic battle scene as a climax for part 2? Because it's been a while since I read the books but I'm fairly certain that everyone's gearing up for an epic battle of epicness, and talking about how this is going to be the vampire-history-changing battle for all times, and then when the moment comes Bella uses her mental forcefield of love power, Renesmee talks with her brain, some other vampires suddenly appear out of nowhere to prove that vampire children can work after all, and everyone goes "Oh well, that's okay then" and goes home.

Or have I mis-remembered that? All I remember is that whatever happened it felt rather anti climactic.

The only reason why this got split into two is because Summit realized that this isn't going to make the money that New Moon or Eclipse made as one part. With two, the combined total could reach that mark.

There's a Bella/Edward sex scene. That alone will make it profitable.*

im only interested in how they will film the sex (or bizarrely fetishtastic) scene
anyone who read the sex scene
will understand
how interesting (and possibly radical) this scene might be towards the conservative hollywood industry

The sex scene in the beginning of the book is a Fade to Black, so there might not even be a sex scene at all.

The popularity of this series does not help my view on women. Then again, outside of the fandom, those women, at least most of them, are just like any of us so I can't hate the fans as people.

If the epic wedding invitations trailer is any indication, this might be just as funny as New Moon was.

The fetus in Bella's body grows swiftly and Bella soon gives birth, but the baby breaks many of her bones and she loses massive amounts of blood. In order to save her life, Edward changes her into a vampire by injecting his venom into her heart. Jacob, who was present for the birth, almost immediately "imprints"—an involuntary response in which a shape-shifter finds his soul mate—on Edward and Bella's newborn daughter, Renesmee.

I'm kinda hoping they go all Cronenberg on the birth scene. That would make the entire 5 films worth it.

Seeing that it's a PG-13 film designed to be a moral substitute to Harry Potter, expect it to be all off-screen.

Actually, I've kind of been looking forward to this ever since I read a bit about Twilight on TV Tropes. Whatever happens, I hope it's weird Accidental Nightmare Fuel at its best.

But I, too, have zero intention of actually watching any of these movies.
