Twilight: Breaking Dawn trailer.




Here we go!!! Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn!

We finally got a real trailer and I can offer some thoughts on it. I'm going to keep it real short because I don't want to over-watch it looking for little details. I've learned my lesson on over-watching trailers.

Let me just say that this: As of right now, this is the movie I'm least excited about. Not only am I not excited about it, but I've been throwing it a hate-eye since I learned the last book was to be split into two movies. The first half of the book is SO TERRIBLY SLOW, I was even wondering while I read it if I had accidentally purchased a work of bad fan-fiction. But I didn't. I was very real and very awkward. I'm just talking about the first half though. I felt like it was a little girl who had married off Barbie and Ken and she was just making up stuff. ''And then, and then, and then, and then, and then" is exactly how this part felt. Having a movie based on all this strange writing made me cringe and hurt.

When I saw the first teaser, I was kind of relieved. Kind of.

Now that I've seen the official trailer I can say I feel a little better. Still not excited about it, but I had some weight lift from my shoulders. It shows us the wedding scene, the Jacob-Bella dance, the flight to Rio, the honeymoon, the sex, the first signs of pregnancy, the worry, Jacob's alliance, the wolf pack separation, some fights, Bella's weakness, Alice saying she can''t see Bella's future, angry Edward and some hints of the actual birth. Ahh! That was a nice complete movie........ wait......... that WASN'T the whole movie!? Because I saw every scene from the book on that trailer. Except Quil and Claire. Seriously though, I hate the kind of trailers that just by watching it, you know what the movie is about. For the first time in my Twilight fandom, I feel like I could just skip this movie and wait 'til the finale next year. Of course I won't do that, I need my Taycob dose, but I do know I won't be watching any more movie stills or the EPIC FINAL FINAL FIIIIINAL TRAILER thing they do for these movies.

The visuals look pretty good, the movie is riiiight there with Eclipse, blending in the blue-ish tone from the first Twilight movie and the constrasty yellow-ish New Moon movie. I very much enjoy the color palette and softness. I don't like the way Bella looks, I don't like the way Edward looks, I don't like Carlisle, I don't like Jacob, I don't like Rosalie. Alice I love, Emmett is the same and Jasper is meh.

What I do love are some of the additional scenes. Emmett stopping Jacob from hurting Edward made me so happy. Leah and Seth ALWAYS make me excited and there seems to be a hint of a fight in there. If they're going to offer us some violence though, I hope it's a complete serving and not what they did in New Moon where fights where too short and insipid.

Oh, and that little Alice twirls to avoid wolf attack was lame. Plus it was done in Eclipse first. So was the jumping over rivers.

So, yeah. I really hope this trailer is dull compared to the actual movie. I have lots of faith in you Mr. Condon, but just for shits and giggles, this is how a GOOD movie trailer is done #justsayin':
