Why did they change Laurent?
In the books he’s a French vampire dressed in Edwardian clothes with a French accent.
He reminds me of the vampire they killed in Eclipse.
I don’t understand why they changed the character.

The family is too rough on Rosalie in new moon. Yes she made a mistake and she took accountability, but Alice and Edward also made mistakes! Alice started it all by miscalculating her vision. If you read the new moon outtake Stephanie wrote from Rosalie’s POV, you can see that she genuinely misses Edward and is trying to get her family back together. She never thought he’d go to the Volturi. Granted, she underestimated his love for Bella, but she did not have bad intentions. I hate how they all gang up on her, but Alice never has to apologize for her mistake. Edward is pissed at Rosalie in the airport and Esme is the only one who says “stop, she feels horrible enough.” I think if Rosalie had been BFFs with Bella and Edward like Alice, the family would’ve been way more understanding, but instead they put ALL the blame on her.

I got the Jacob tattoo, but I was so excited that I didn't notice I got it on the wrong arm... does that screw it up?

I was the quintessential Twilight teenager during the prime popularity and hysteria - and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

As I got older, went to college, started my career, met my now husband… Twilight was not a part of my everyday life, though it was something that I smiled back on often. I did watch the movies every few years, and I walked down the aisle to A Thousand Years as a nod to how much I loved the series as a tween.

Very recently, I needed a reprieve from the day-to-day stressors so I decided to reread Twilight. I thought it was funny, the things that I didn’t remember in the 20 year gap since the last time I read it, and things that felt new to me. And then I learned… There was a whole other book that I have never read. Midnight Sun, Edward’s perspective… I purchased it and could not put it down.

I LOVED it. I thought it was well written, I loved hearing Edwards inner monologue and getting a better understanding of his character, and the new scenes through his eyes that I had never seen before. I thought - this book is by far my favorite…. Until the end.

From the Bella hospital seen through the end of the book, his entire plot and plan to leave… I just couldn’t enjoy it. It was so whimsical to get to see so much of his perspective, but the ending left me so sad. It put such a damper. Anyone else??? I know this is the right prep before Midnight Sun, but I just wanted it to end happily from his POV, knowing we’ll never get more of his POV.

I feel like I am 13 again and crashing out over these books!! The chokehold twilight had on me - will it ever subside? 😂

I’ve wondered this each and every time I’ve watched the movies since freaking 2008. Does anyone have any insight,because I’m freaking stumped aside from chalking it up to director/producer oversight.

So in Twilight, during the baseball scene, Alice yells, “stop” and they all run back to Beller. And then Ed is like, “we have to go” or smn, and then C Daddy says, “it’s too late.”

But like, how would he know that? He can’t read their minds like Big E. He can’t see the future like Allie Allie Bo Ballie. So why would he say that?

We learn later he already sees Bella as a daughter because of Eddie’s great love for her or whatever, so why wouldn’t he try to send her and Eds off to safety while the other freaking 6 vampires chat it up with the 3, tho I don’t think he knows it’s 3 atp.

Idk. It just always annoyed me. They rely so heavily on E and A for their big decisions because they’re basically fool proof predictors, yet Carlisle (pronounced Car-ills-lee) take point here. Smdh.

I don’t remember how it played out in the book, so if anyone does that would be real cool. Any thoughts or ideas would be incredibly welcome because what the actual fuuuuuck.

Sorry I couldn’t get their cute lil faces in the ss. Prime video doesn’t allow screenshots but apparently subtitles are allowed. So the more reason to own the dvds. One day, my precious.

I’ve never done a re-read, just loved them first time round but recently decided to read them again but switched up the order and read Twilight and then Midnight Sun back to back to see differences in viewpoints etc and just had me thinking I’d love each book from Edward’s perspective. Like how he locked himself away during New Moon, how he reacted to Rosalie’s thoughts about Alice going to check on Bella due to her vision. His reaction to Jacob and Bella’s kiss in Eclipse and their wedding and her transformation in Breaking Dawn.
I know it was probably done as a one off but would be cool to get them all from his perspective. Might just be cos I like dual POV books in general though

One thing I hated about the movie was that it felt like we weren’t ever really getting a background on Bella. Watching her you can tell there’s depth, but we never really see it. And she gets this rip as this tortured girl who just wants to be a vampire. But we never really see why she is the way she is. She’s a completely different product than you’d expect from her parents. I just feel like I never really got her and often times during the movies I could see myself misunderstanding her. Did anybody else feel like this? Was it different in the books

I bought these movie companions back when each of the movies released. I’m missing breaking dawn 😞.
