SPOILERS: Breaking Dawn - Initial Thoughts

Wait, the book didn't tell how Jake tricked the pack? I thought it did.

About the movie. When Edward was biting Bella when she died, it seemed wrong to me. A little weird. But I guess it was the same in the book, I just didn't visualized it like that lol

Also, the dream about the baby boy was not shown.

I've read the book long time ago and in English not Latvian. So pls remind me what was that dream about? In the movie she only said she felt like it's a boy.

Aside from the begging part, I wanted to see Bella eating eggs. LOL.

what was about the eggs too? lol

That part where the wolf pack was at the beach (with their imprintees), was weird. IDK why, but it just felt weird. LOL.

The only thing I didn't like is that they weren't really explained what imprinting means. They showed (don't remember the name) with little girl, and if I wouldn't read book then I wouldn't know they imprinted and that it was possible.

Bella's preggy makeup and getup was amazing. Especially when she was about to take a bath. Her spinal cord was showing. Hehehe.

Some of that in that scene was not just make upo but digitally made. That was the first time I noticed some digital effects in there.

From the book, before the wedding, Bella dreamt about the baby boy on top of the dead humans from Forks. The eyes of the boy was green like Edward's. In the movie, they showed her and Edward on top of what looked like a wedding cake made up of dead humans.

Bella was only able to tolerate eating eggs. This is also from the book. Remember in Isle Esme? Aside from the chicken, she also ate eggs.

And the imprintee llittle girl's name was Claire. LOL. I remember her name. I was also disappointed they didn't really explain what imprinting was when they were on the beach. I wish they did, so the imprinting scene with Jake and Nessie would not have been weird.

they talked about imprinting in eclipse.

I think they explained as much about imprinting in Eclipse and BD1 as was in the book.

Moat ppl don't remember Eclipse, it was long time ago. I thinkimg they needed to keep every story in each movie. For imprinting the most important was Breaking Dawn. I was watching breaking Dawn and seeing so much thing that I knew normal ppl wouldn't understand if he wouldn't have read the books.

Yeah I guess Eclipse was a while ago. It's hard to view the film like someone who hasn't read the books or seen the films as many times as I have.

had i not read the books it might have been a little boring... but had i seen all the movies i don't honestly think i would have been that confused. except by the volturi part at the end. i probably would have thought they wanted bella instead of alice.

I need to see BD again so I can see the Volturi bit at the end.

People I know who have never read the books are extreme confused with BD. And most don't like it and find it too boring compared to NM and Eclipse. Buuut I still think it was pretty damn good.

Yeah, as a film, nothing happened, but we know that's because nothing happened in the book. So it puts it in context - we weren't expecting it to have a lot of action so we weren't disappointed.

Yes, I agree. That's why I wanted them to somehow discuss imprinting again. For the benefit of those who have not read the books and watched the previous movies.


Oh, and that girl in the park when Jake ran after he saw Edward & Bella were gushing over how Edward could hear the baby in her tummy... I think her name was Lizzie?
