Breaking Dawn Trailer


So they have released a new Breaking Dawn trailer and this one has my excitement peaked! It covers a lot of the aspects about the book that I was wondering about including the point in which they end Part 1 to begin Part 2. I can say that I think this looks phenomenal; however, I don't seem to recall a time in the book when the wolves actually attack anyone. I just re-read it recently and I just don't recall this at all, so that will be an interesting thing to see.

I think that with each movie they have made Edward look more and more like a vampire and in the same beat, it makes it even more questionable as to why the wedding is in the daytime. I think the makeup for Bella during her pregnancy is done pretty well and I can't wait to see how this all plays out. Only a month and 2 days away!

According to the facebook fan page, tickets will go on sale for the midnight release 10/1! Are you ready?

Follow Friday (5)

In addition to First Impressions Friday, I take part in the blog hop Follow Friday hosted by Parajunkee.



The magic book fairy pops out of your cereal box and says 
"You & your favorite [book] character can switch places!" 
Who are you going to switch with?

What a tough decision. My answer for a while has been Bella Swan. I know that she is emo and has had her rough moments but I have always been so swooned by the deep and eternal love that she shares with Edward. The fact that she gets to have it all, the beautiful baby, the loving husband, vampire glory, and pretty strong and sound mental capabilities is all a pretty nice package. She also serves to be the part of the bridge between natural enemies. It also comes with more perks like driving a Mercedes Guard or a Porsche 911...who wouldn't want that?

The Breaking Dawn P1 Official Trailer


I will admit to being a big Twilight fan. Edward graces one of the walls surrounding my desk full out with the Edward Barbie Doll & aluminum water canteen...really. My biggest concern about the movie after reading a statement by Kristen Stewart (in EW) that the love scene wasn't "vampire-y" I thought I was going to be disappointed. Stephanie Meyer was writing some great "adult" scenes that never had the chance to flourish in a YA setting and in my love of paranormal romance, they were scenes I was really excited to see on the big screen; with the anecdote out of the way, I will admit to ACTUALLY SQUEALING when he cracks the headboard. No seriously, it's true, I made a fangirl noise! And I may accidentally make one every time I watch it.

Aside from all of that and my glorified profession of Team Edward, I think this movie looks phenomenal; so far it looks like it has all the aspects the book has to offer and that I might not have to sit in the mind of an angry teenage wereboy, and that is a good thing. I'm interested to see how the P1 will end and leave the entrance for P2, I can only imagine her waking as a vampire to be the only point to do so.

Is he getting married in the sun!?

Breaking Dawn Part I


What is wrong with Alice's hair!? Seriously!? I mean she is supposed to have a really cute pixie cut and that is anything far from it; it kind of goes back to the weird style she had in New Moon and I am not a fan.

As for the honeymoon pictures, it kind of makes me jealous that Esme Isle doesn't really exist because someday, I will have my own honeymoon and I am sure it is a beautiful place to visit! I also notice a lack of bruising from the love scene. It seems that they have decided to tone down some of the scenes for the movie version, when I am sure it reaches a bigger audience but....perhaps it may also reach a younger audience. In an interview with Entertainment Weeky, Kristen Stewart said, "It feels like a real love scene, not necessarily vampire-y, which is good." Well, I am not watching for a lovey-dovey perfect human relationship (cough). But at least the wedding looks spectacular from what I can gather!

My last thought is what is up with the blondes? Are they the Denalis? Because...I kind of always pictured them much more attractive than that.

Nonetheless, I am still insanely excited to watch the movie and still curious as to how they will split it into two different parts.
