Let's discuss the latest movie in the saga! Obviously it was hugely successful! No surprise there!
Let's go questionnaire style on this one!
What part was your favorite? When Bella's red eyes open up at the very end!
What part was your least favorite? Edward's flashback. It didn't look real at all!
What did you think of the wedding? It was really pretty! I liked the dress a lot, but I'm kind of curious as to how they got all their guests in matching outfits!
What did you think of Isle Esme? Looks-wise, it was pretty similar to what I'd expected it to be (aka ridiculously nice). As for THE SCENE, I think they handled it well without making it too raunchy or awkward.
How about the pregnancy and the birth scene? I didn't really dig how it basically became a pro-choice vs. pro-life debate among the vampires, but I suppose those elements are in the book too. I was hoping for much more gore in the birth scene, but I know it had to be edited down for the PG-13 rating!
Now it's your turn to answer the questions! Feel free to add in any additional questions and answers you want!

What part was your favorite? Definately her eyes at the end! So dramatic XD
What part was your least favorite? The wolf pack in the lumber yard. The honestly just looked like somehting out of one of those cheesy talking animal movies. not impressed.
What did you think of the wedding? It looked incredible! But the pacing was really bad. It just took her too damn long to get up the isle.
What did you think of Isle Esme? Veeeery flash.
How about the pregnancy and the birth scene? Good makeup. She actaully looked really sick. But the birht scene....i couldn't really watch. it was so graohic, but without really showing anything? I don't know. I don't have a very high tolerance for that sort of thing.

What part was your favorite? Personally i loved the wedding , and the wedding speeches? That was so funny and just so sweet- I really love their romance. What part was your least favorite? The bit where Edward was pumping Bellas heart - it looked Dramatic sure , but it was a bit... disturbing she looked so fragile - and i thought she had died when he went off to fight the wolves , so that was a bit confusing. What did you think of the wedding? It was beautiful , it was so so lovely , I really liked it . The music was a bit ranbdom though and i was expecting a little bit more flashiness in the dress , but Kristen looked so pretty. What did you think of Isle Esme? It was nice , the house was not what i expected - i expected again - more glitz and glamour and richness but it was nice. I think they handled the scene as well as could be expected. How about the pregnancy and the birth scene? It was.. well for me is was graphic and the makeup loooked real and it was a bit gross. The pregnancy elements were kind of sad. The choice vs Life - well i think it captured the elements from the book well , but it was at the smae time DID ANYBODY ELSE NOTICE HOW THEY KEEP CHANGING HOW THE VAMPIRES LOOK? and what did you think of Irina , Kate , tanya , Carmen and Eleazer?

DID ANYBODY ELSE NOTICE HOW THEY KEEP CHANGING HOW THE VAMPIRES LOOK? and what did you think of Irina , Kate , tanya , Carmen and Eleazer? You're right about the speeches! I almost forgot about those! Jessica was hilarious! "And somehow he was like totally into Bella... even though she wasn't the captain of the volleyball team... or student class president." YES. They have different makeup people for each movie, I think, and none of them have mastered the vampire look. Carlisle was definitely the worst in this movie! He looked like he had a yellow plastic helmet glued to his head! The Alaskan vampires looked good. I LOVE Irina's short monologue about Laurent wanting to be with her. It was so short, but it honestly may have been the best acting in the whole movie!

I read Breaking Dawn two, three years ago so I'm going to try and remember the best I can. My response may not be valid when it comes to comparing it with the movie. What part was your favorite? Probably what you said-- at the very end when Bella opened her eyes! What part was your least favorite? I had more problems with the editing than I did with the acting. A couple of things: a) Like you said, Edward's flashback scene (was that scene even in the book?), b) the cheesy wolf talking nonsense, and c) WHY WAS THERE MUSIC PLAYING IN THE BACKGROUND OF, WELL, THE ENTIRE MOVIE?! Extremely distracting! What did you think of the wedding? I really liked the wedding scene. A little drawn out, but I enjoyed it. What did you think of Isle Esme? I never had a specific image in my head while reading, so I didn't have any real expectations. I think it looked nice and cozy! How about the pregnancy and the birth scene? I think that they did a good job with making it graphic, but not too graphic. My friend, who saw the movie a couple of days before me, said that it was really bad, so maybe I was expecting something more gruesome? But, hey, I don't do well with gore so I'm definitely satisfied! Personally, I still think that it should have been just one movie. The pacing in "Part 1" was incredibly slow. Still, I think that they did a good job with matching it with the book.

What part was my favorite? I really loved the movie, and I have a hard time choosing my favorite part, but I would have to say the part where Bella is going through the Change and flashbacks, and then she opens her eyes! I loved the ending. What part was my least favorite? I think my least favorite part was when Edward was telling her she was leaving him and he was yelling at her, that was not in the books and I was very disappointed that they put that in there! If that was in the book, I would be extremely disappointed in him. What did I think of the wedding? I personally loved the Wedding very very much. It was beautiful, and they pulled it off amazingly, I really loved the speeches part. What did I think of Isle Esme? I loved Isle Esme, it was beautiful -as it was suppose to- and they pulled it off beautifully. It was better than I expected it to be. "How about the Pregnancy and Birth Scene?" It was a little dark and gruesome (I didn't think it was too too much), but that was to be expected, they pulled it off as how I had thought they would, they followed the book like I hoped they would and even if I didn't really like watching it, I appreciated that they followed the book. It is my favorite movie, just like the book is my favorite Book. ;D

What part was your favorite? When Bella color-ifies (not a word!) and comes back to life.
What part was your least favorite? Jacob's resistance in the lumberyard. Taylor is a great actor, but not with his voice alone. Same goes for the others...
What did you think of the wedding? The wedding, to sum it all up in one word, was lovely. I especially loved the speeches afterwards (coughJESSICAcough). ;D
What did you think of Isle Esme? Perfect. Personally, I hate sex scenes. I feel like they did this one right with actual purpose and not just randomness.
How about the pregnancy and the birth scene? Shudder.

What part was your favorite? When Bella's red eyes open up at the very end!
What part was your least favorite? That the Hunger Games trailer wasn't shown before the movie.
What did you think of the wedding? Beautiful decor. The dress was lovely, of course.
What did you think of Isle Esme? Very nice private island. Sex scene was kinda weird, but maybe because I was sitting next to a 10 year old girl who was giggling with her friend on the opposite side of her. Well, pretty much everyone was giggling about that.
How about the pregnancy and the birth scene? Pregnancy was okay, although I was actually disturbed by how realistically skinny they made Bella look when she was about to take a bath. The birth scene was what I expected and it had a decent amount of shock element to it.

What part was your favorite? I really loved the honey moon part. I felt like they did a great job with it, and the island was gorgeous. I was so amused by Bella's "sexy" attempts
What part was your least favorite? I hated when the wolves got together and talked, the scene where Jacob leaves because it had this like child movie feel to it to me. Like kids movies have talking animals and thats what it made me think of. Thats the only thing that I really disliked.
What did you think of the wedding? GORGEOUS! Alice needs to do my wedding when I eventually get married.
What did you think of Isle Esme? Can I live there? Seriously? I want to live there, it was so beautiful. I thought they did a great job finding the perfect place for it.
How about the pregnancy and the birth scene? Bella looked like such a zombie the entire time, I guess thats to be expected though. I think they did a decent job on it. I agree about the pro-life/ pro-choice debate thing. I thought they kinda focused on that, but then again I guess that was the point. The birth was sooo tame compared to what I heard it was going to be. I heard all of this stuff and I was all ready to be grossed out and when it was over I was like thats it? thats what everyone was freaking out about? I've seen a lot worse, but then again I love horror movies so I'm a bit of a gore girl.
