Breaking Dawn and migraine

Apologies, Twilighters. I didn’t mean to offend you, but yeah, I did have a migraine after watching the movie from 12 meters afar. I was diagnosed farsighted and I completely forgot about that when my friend and I chose our seats.

Next time, I should choose my seats wisely. Especially if there’s a wedding scene. I can’t help but check on Bella’s eye shadow, and wonder what the entire set would be like if documented by wedding photography raleigh nc -style. The place was so pretty.

The movie installation of the fourth Twilight book by Stephenie Meyer called “Breaking Dawn” was all about a Victorian-inspired honeymoon where you have a guy who apologizes for his bed manners (you know) and keeps his wife under the sheets (okay). If you’re the type who wants some bed action, stay at home and watch True Blood. Because Twilight, my friends, is for kids.

The two-week honeymoon ended up with an unusual pregnancy. Bella was already carrying a vampire fetus in her belly who feeds on her blood and bones that she became Skeletor. Some people argue about the scientific logic of this particular incident. How can a living thing and a non-living thing produce a living organism? I don’t know. They just fed Bella cups of blood to keep the baby from eating her up. These things happen only in the Twilight universe and Meyer has her own interpretation of science.

Then the uproar at camp Jacob. The pack was upset over Bella’s pregnancy and plan to be immortal. I didn’t understand why as this was the part where I was deciding whether to watch with my right eye covered or just faint. What I remembered from the pack’s Disney-talk was that Jacob was some sort of a werewolf royalty. And he was “imprinting” the vampire baby, Renesmee, and saw her in a vision as a grown-up girl. If he can’t have the underworld’s most coveted Bella, why not the hybrid vampire baby? Therefore, Edward is going to be Jacob’s father-in-law. And in the end, someone is going to be a vampire. And then perhaps, a war? You know, usually in the movies such as this, someone really has to die.

This universe is so predictable. But then, if you want to take your mind off something, stop over-analyzing things. Just watch.

It’s breaking dawn (literally)

I haven’t seen Twilight’s Breaking Dawn yet. But after reading quite a number of reviews, mostly from mediocre to bad (try checking out Time’s review called “The Breaking Yawn”), and the fact that I have also seen the first 3 installments, I have completely lost my appetite. What is there to expect from the two irrational inseparable lovebirds? The purpose of this whole Twilight exercise is centered on their destiny as a boring accident-prone couple, never mind the people around or any pursuit to be part of a functional society. It’s all about love, the kind that exists in a 13-year-old’s head or someone else’s pseudo profile on a free online dating site.

Anyway, whatever the storyline was, money continues to flow into Meyer’s account and Steward and Pattinson remain the undisputed teen couple with high incomes.

I wonder when The Vampire Diaries be made into a movie. In the meantime, I liked the Muppets parody of the Breaking Dawn.

Twilight hair story

I spotted this somewhere. I couldn’t agree more – Twilight’s newest vegetarian shares his strange look with his hairdresser, Edward Scissorhands. If there’s one person in the cast who wasn’t so secure about his look, it’s Jasper Hale.

The Cullen boy has actually experimented on various hairstyles over the last three Twilight installments. In his first two major appearances, he sported the electrified hair look. Lately, he grew his hair longer as he learned how to care for the ozone by quitting the use spray nets. He’s maturing fast in preparation for the vampire Bella’s baby coming in Book 4. By the way that kid, a hybrid nurtured with human growth hormone, matures so fast that age seven she was said to already look like seventeen.
