How Do I Love Thee, Eclipse? Let Me Count the Ways...

Spoilers ahead. Blah blah blah... It's time!

You (all of you). Me. Tomorrow. Matinee. Be there or...oh just be there...please?

So I have seen Eclipse twice and I fully planned on seeing it a third time before I wrote this (mostly because my mind is like a sieve and I didn't take any notes during those viewings because I wanted to just watch the movie and not spend the entire two hours scribbling illegible notes) but I missed Jenny Jerkface's viewing with Mommy & Daddy[not a]Jerkface (and ML!) last week. Which broke my heart, btw - this is the first time that one of us has went to the theater to see a Twilight movie without the other in the history of forever! I was hurt but shit happens and I will exact my revenge one day soon - mwahhahaha.

But you know what? I don't need the "holy crap I forgot everything and now I have to write about it" refresher viewing. I know the important bits: I thought that David Slade really delivered and I second Latchkey Wife's proffering of Jenny Jerkface to provide him with the sexual favors he rightfully has coming to him after delivering two hours of hot, HOT Eclipseward to our greedy, smutty eyes. I think I bit and licked my lips so many times during that flick that I practically gnawed my way through an entire tube of "Edward's Kiss" lip balm. There were definitely records set for "oh my fucking gawd I WANT HIM" sighs and I think JJ's arm is probably still bruised from my poking and tugging at it every time Robert Pattinson came on the screen looking totally fuckable.

I want you. And I want her hat. I need that hat. Knitters, hook a Twitard up!
Or send me your Etsy page - I'll pay good money for this hat come September.
I need it to go with my "Bella at La Push Beach hat." For reals.

And Robward looked uber do-able pretty much every. single. time. he showed his face. C'mon - admit it - even if you are one of those rare folks who usually doesn't get it and doesn't think he's delicious looking, you had to have appreciated his looks in this movie. I didn't think it was possible for me to get any shallower (or carnal) when it comes staring up at his huge sexy face (did anyone else notice how many close-ups there were?!), but I managed. I was thisclose to launching myself out of my rocker-style-chair and stadium-seating position towards the screen when I saw it in Imax. THISCLOSE. RAWR!!!

I have no words. OK, I do. I loooove the white v-neck tee. {{{drool}}}

So, yeah, I REALLY liked this movie. I suppose I could qualify this by saying "it was a good movie by Twilight Saga standards" (because there will be some snarkiness to come - I gotta be me), but there's just barely the need to do so. Which might sound cold, but I mean it as high compliments and you know it!

Eclipse and Eclipseward, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways... Here's the short list - the very short list - of what made my SQUEEE!!!-o-meter go off the chart:

SQUEEEEEEE!!!! Did I say "SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" er yeah I'm...ah...fuuuck...

1) RPatts looks fucking awesome!! Did I mention how hot he looks??? Holy fuckballs, he looks ridonkulous hawt! I mean it didn't take that much to up the hotness after the grandpa-chic look he was rockin' in New Moon, but this Hawtward was beyond expectation. I have no idea what David Slade's sexual orientation is and I don't care, but I DO know that he knows how to showcase a fuck-hawt man. Just sayin'...

Someone get me to FaceInHole STAT!!!

2) The action sequences were amazing! One of my favorite parts of New Moon was when they chased Victoria through the woods. And David Slade really made the action parts super-exciting in Eclipse! I loved the Victoria chase with the wolves and the vampires (although I didn't like Victoria but I'll save that for another time) and the actual battle with the newborns was equally well done. Even the training sequence was awesome - you could really tell that they put some effort into training for this part of the movie, even though some of the cast claim to be very lacking in the athletic prowess department [*cough*RPatts*cough].

Carlisle proclaims that the Cullens will fight the newborn aaaahhhhmee.
Dressing monochromatically will make them stronger! And blue-er...

3) Billy Burke. Lurvs you long time, Billy Burke. As was the case in the previous two movies, you totally stole the scenes you were in (and the "sex talk" part was hilarious! aaand uncomfortable for everyone... as it was meant to be...)

3) The wolves - the whole wolf pack was fantastic! Not necessarily the actors themselves, but the actual wolfy parts/special effects. I'm no Team Jacob (obvs) but the wolves were great. Just like they were supposed to be - HUGE! Furry! Ferocious! There may have been a few hinky moments when they moved slowly and looked a little herky-jerky, but I'll overlook it because all in all they looked great.

4) Leg hitch leg hitch leg hiiiiitch!!! I almost slid out of my chair during this scene and the poor woman who sat next to me (who was awesome and came by herself and who I slipped a Twitarded button to and hope she was not completely mortified if she came and read our blog) Short of having them go totally broken arrow and do IT right there in the meadow or having Edward putting his virgin vampsicle in Bella's virgin hoo-hoo on that big golden bed he bought for her to sleep in [really], there was as much petting, sucking face, and unresolved sexual tension as there could possibly be to keep us all on the edge of our seats, happily uncomfy, moist, and groaning (and to keep Stephenie Meyer happy, dang it).

Even Richard Roeper liked it! Ok I just like this clip because it has some nice movie footage in it...



Lorabell over at Twicrack Addict (who I had the pleasure of seeing Eclipse with!) pretty much hit everything spot-on with her Super Duper Spoilery Post of Eclipse Epicness - I'm with her on almost all points! And I am sorry that I didn't get back to NYC the Friday following the Eclipse premiere to attend her birthday party, because she promised that there would be karaoke and that the soundtrack from The Runaways would be prominently featured (send me video if you have it, Lorabell!)

You want to know what I was really thinking when I watched this movie both times??? I was thinking "I can't wait for this mofo to come out on dvd so that I can pause and pause and pause and rewatch every frame of the hot stuff. It's as close to Twilight porn as we're going to get. Until we post our review of the Twilight porno, anyway (don't say we didn't warn you).

  1. I really loved this movie. More than I thought I would. I loved the beginning with Riley (Um. Fucking Yum.) Oh and btw, thank you David Slade for the Riley’s lip biting. Somebody fucking write me some Riley fanfiction.

    *fans self* Loved all of Charlie’s scenes. Still funny.
    Loved the CGI wolves (the boys had too many beef patties in real life, but I’ll let that slide.)

    Loved all of Jacob’s lines. He’s so dry, it’s actually funny to me.

    And of course, I love my Edward. No matter what the fuck he was doing.

    *Sighs* Can’t wait for this on DVD. Can they hurry up and decide where they are going to film Isle Esme. I want it to be here in Hawaii so I can stalk them every day and bottle the sand that Edward’s ass touched.

  2. STY! Please read this comment. My buddy makes all of Bella's hats (and she's pretty good at it too). She's so good at it that the Hillywood Show JUST bought the green and white striped one from her 2 days ago! (insert fangirl squee here for her)
    Please convo her at her etsy shop:
    http://www.etsy.com/listing/51128266/twilight-eclipse-inspired-bellas-tent

    btw, I just did a spotlight on her a couple days ago at my blog: http://dailytwimes.blogspot.com/2010/07/jewelry-spot-day-late-pumpkin-patch.html

  3. I almost didn't catch the tent scene because I was so distracted by that fuckawesome striped hat. I will be making one for myself before the winter. I do agree with all of your positives as well. Billy was awesome, as always. Rob looked... *sigh*

  4. Dude ok, so I took Twitarded to a whole new level both times I saw Eclipse!
    I MISSED THE LEG HITCH BOTH TIMES!!!!
    How did I do this, you may ask?
    1st time - I leaned over to the person I was with to say "Omg the leg hitch is coming!!!" In the 2 seconds I looked away, missed it!
    2nd time - By once again leaning over to the person I was with to say "Holy crap, did you see how big Rob's thumb is next to her face!, it's huge!" Missed it again!
    Guess that means I need to go see for a 3rd time and not say anything or look away from the second the walk in the bedroom.

    I really like the movie! Gold star for David Slade and who ever dressed/make upped the precious! Damn! But I'm still now sure how a feel about Bella's speech at the end of the movie. :/
    Loved it!

  5. I haven't felt anything like this before after seeing a movie...it's a cross between being broken-up with and the feeling a guy must have with the most ridiculous case of blue balls. (Hoping to get my fourth fix @ Imax before it's too late)
    My 2 cents:
    -I don't know the whole "in-and out" of why Lefevre was replaced. I don't care. Bottom line: she was the better man for the job. PERIOD. I was completely unimpressed with Howard's version...so much that it makes me want to drink.
    -Jackson Rathbone...why, HELLOOOOO! Where the hell was he the first two movies? Okay, I know how the story goes, AND I'll still overlook that **cringe** hair. However, I was suprised how hot he was in this film. I think there should have been a little Alice/Jasper-in-the-forest scene somewhere.
    -THE RING. Seriously? Gimme a quarter and I'll find you a replica in the nearest greasy-spoon doorway.
    -Kristen Stewart's wig: cringe.
    -TAYLOR (HE'S LEGAL) LAUTNER. My. God. His scenes never got old. I'm nearly speecehless...from the black t-shirt to beautiful chesticles it was pure bliss. He's getting better in the acting department too. (P.S. Team-Fucking-It's-108-degrees-Over-Here Jacob)

  6. I'd love to have something more to say, STY, but I don't, I just totally agree with all of your points, including the snarky points you allude to. Right down to the seive for a memory. I say that weekly to explain myself to people. At least, I think I remember to say it weekly.

    @Track 10- also totally also missed the leg hitch. Laughing uncontrolably thanks to DH, which I've previously complained about. Twice I think. But like you, thoroughly appreciate the excuse to see it again.

    Unrelated, sorta. I was pricing things tonight for a fundraising garage sale in the morning. I donated my New Moon jigsaw puzzle to the cause (not a collector, what can I say?) and though I had already put "Complete $2" on the box, I went back and added another sticker in front of that one, so in the end it read "Edward will make you complete, $2" Gonna be eyeing the person who buys it.

  7. So I just saw Eclipse for the 3rd time in IMAX tonight. Holy fuck is Rob hot as Edward in this one. I mean he just looked fucking gorge-ass the whole film. I still think his contact are too light but whatever.

    So my friend sent me an article tonight that was an interview with the costume person for Eclipse. Apparently Rob wanted to wear karate pants for the fight training scenes (FYI people DO NOT let The Precious make costume decisions...New Moon, case and point). Anyhoo, apparently the consensus was that the crotch hung too low on him and they were too baggy...soooooooo... they took in the crotch...and voila! The craptastic black karate pants he is wearing in the training scene. Hahahaha!

    I could write a novella on my opinions but I, too, give it a resounding Fuck yes! So, so much better than the previous two.

    My biggest surprise....Jasper...holy hell he was actually hot...and acted super well....and did not look like he was shitting his pants. Hot damn. I loved the flirtation between he and Alice too. Loved that whole training scene....except for the crotch-cropped karate pants...teehee.

    Charlie how I love thee. The end.

    I kind of liked Bella's speech at the end. I felt like it gave her a hell a lot more depth of character.

    Oh and I loved the proposal (except for that hideous ring)....best part was that we weren't in her head like in the book and she just said 'yes'...none of the immature internal freaking out. Then the hug right after....I seriously got choked up...every time. Sniff.

    OK, must stop. So good.

  8. Let me preface this by saying that I loved the movie and that Rob was totally hot, but...

    Here's what I did today -- watched the first one again. Dudes: I think the first one is the best one. It's so DEAD SERIOUS about the love, and that is my favourite part of Twilight. The awful pain of impossible teen longing and love is palpable in it, and I love the way it just hints at the incredible depth of Edward as a character. It gives you just enough to drown in it. I love that movie. I like it millions of times more than I like the book.

    I liked Eclipse, but I think that in trying to expand the audience with all the action (which, yes, was awesome, but can we talk? Boys are NEVER GOING TO LIKE THE TWILIGHT SAGA! IT'S FOR GIRLS!) they short-changed us a bit on the romantic agony of the book. I wanted more tension, and more TIME for the love, dudes.

    Twilight ruled because it totally refused to laugh at teen girl love, and gave us a truly worthy object of that kind of desire in Edward.

    New Moon was ok, mostly because I wanted to be with Edward again, and I really only give a rat's ass about the part he's present for, because honestly? The whole Jacob thing? Whatever. But worst of all, New Moon was self-consious and made fun of itself a bit too much. Eclipse was all exciting and shit, and Edward was super sexy, like always, but I just felt like the emphasis on ACTION was a bit... wrongheaded.

    Why not just let it be what it is? A story about LOVE. I know people carry on about how anti-feminist it is, and yeah, Bella is a black hole energy sucking vortex with very little personal agency, but I think there's something tremendously feminist about letting it really just be about a girl's experience of idealised love. I mean, we're all loving Edward with that kind of love, aren't we? And we're all loving Rob as the ideal fuck, soooooo....

    Why try to bring the boys to the theater? Do we really need them in up in our Twitarded grills, David Slade?

    Wow. I ranted. Hello! I'm June. I'm a heretofore mostly silent Twitard. Don't kick me out!

  9. I want to believe all the deee-lish close-ups were because the big-wigs got smart and started reading Twitarded. Everything Twilight fans wanna see on the big screen is throughly described here. I am glad they got the memo in Rob *gasp*. The visions of him are burned on my retena so every time I close my eyes I see him...I also really enjoyed that they worked in real lines from the book (and matched them with the correct character). I feel in love with Edward because of the books...It is nice to finially see him represented in the way the book reflects.
    :PROBLEMS:
    Wigs
    Alice's wardrobe
    Bella cutting herself (WTF??)
    No Edward trying to give Bella what she wants in the meadow in the final sceen.
    Edward's lack-luster fighting. I mean, come on! He is so badass...
    Hugs and cupcakes

  10. Ok, so Eclipse just became my favorite movie of all time. Saw it again last night in IMAX & it rocked my socks off.
    It has all of the required elements, love, making out, humor, fuckhawt guys, action, etc...
    I'm wondering if we should start a petition to get DS to direct BD too because he nailed it!
    Things I loved:
    - Edward was too hot for words.
    - The first scene where we see Jacob, when he turns around in the school parking lot literally made me gasp. HOT ass Jacob.
    - Meadow making out & leg hitch..ahhh that chest.
    - loved Jasper channeling JDdepp
    - Emmett's vamp face was FIERCE!
    - Rosalie looked beautiful
    - tent scene was beautifully acted.
    -The Stews much improved acting
    -Charlie
    - the wolves looked great. I loved when Bella was petting Jacob (heh)
    - the Jella kiss was awesome.
    Fucking loved the whole thing...sigh, in my happy place.

  11. A Twilight porno? Yikes. I imagine it'll be like staring at a car accident, I won't be able to look away no matter how horrifying! Or maybe it'll just be hilariously bad.

    Okay, Eclipse... *Sigh of relief* Yup, they got a lot of stuff right this time around! I'd even say most of it. Especially Edward. *sigh of longing*

    I heard/read that Bryce was Stephenie's original choice for Victoria. Whatev, I didn't like her. At. All.

    @VitaminR - I thought RPattz's choice of 'spidermonkey' was bad enough (gawd I wish I knew what else was on that list), but these karate pants. Ugh. Oh RPattz *shakes head*

    @HG - LMAO @ "I want it to be here in Hawaii so I can stalk them every day and bottle the sand that Edward’s ass touched."

    ReplyDelete
  12. I'm with June Velcro - I came out feeling....kinda disappointed.*gasp*

    I didn't feel it depicted the love triangle AT ALL. At no point in time did I ever feel like Bella was stuck in the middle trying to decide between the two. I am 100% Team Edward but god, I even ended up feeling sorry for Jacob in that he was never made out to be a serious contender, and for me to feel sorry for that whiny child, something must have been up.

    And that scene after the Jella kiss? I love him, but I love you more, end of scene. WTF was with that? Where was the remorse, the guilt, the upset? I just wanted to scream!

    I think reading the book just before seeing the film was a mistake because I was making comparisons all the time. As in Bella NEVER says no to marrying Edward in the book. She makes it clear she doesn't like the idea of marriage but she never says no to Edward. But there it was, right at the start of the film so that pissed me off to begin with.

    I'm seeing it again tomorrow so I can hopefully leave the book behind and enjoy it more as a film.

    On the plus side, Rob was fuckalicious, the Victoria chase was awesome, the sex talk was fabulously awkward and the bedroom scene made my heart leap out my chest. But the biggest surprise of all? Hello, Jasper, where did that hotness creep up from?

    ReplyDelete
  13. I gotta say I LOVE it! I've already seen it 5 times, twice in IMAX. I think I'm just a little addicted. I laughed, I cried, I wished it wasn't over (just like the book) David Slade deserves all the kudos he's been getting and more so. EDWARD/ROB: I have never wanted a movie star so much in my life! I litterally wiped drool from my mouth three separate times.
    AND I cannot wait until it comes out in DVD, I hope they rush it through because otherwise I'm going to have to get a second job just to afford my new Eclipse movie habbit!

    ReplyDelete
  14. I loved the leg hitch... but I agree... it was WAY TOO SHORT AND EASY TO MISS!!! No wonder @PamR missed it twice. I almost missed it and I only blinked!

    And Jasper??? Swoon!!! Where have you been all my life??? My hubby grew up in Dallas and sometimes he has a slight accent like that... mmmmmm.... yummy.

    And where does the line form to service David Slade? I'd pay for that shit!!!

    ReplyDelete
  15. As much as I loooooved the leg hitch like a whore loves cock, I agree, I was much too short. I would have been happy with a 10 minute leg hitch scene... although my lady bits may have exploded in the theater and well, that could get messy!

    I totally can't wait for this DVD... it's gonna get so much play, it will for sure wear out.

    ReplyDelete
  16. OK, I'm going to just say it: I thought they glazed over the leg hitch. *ducks to avoid objects being thrown*
    I felt like in the book it was this BIG MOMENT because he'd never let her do anything like that, and in the movie it was just like, "Yep, making out with Edward again." I would have liked more significance. Maybe it should have bee longer, like the other lades said - maybe that would have helped.

    That said, I still loved this movie. I'm seeing it again today with a fellow Twitard (my first time meeting one of you in person!), and I can't wait. Yay! Go David Slade! (And go AWAY Bryce Dallas Howard!)

    ReplyDelete
  17. I knew I'd love it and I did! Totally brought back the "oh my god its Twilight" feelings. David Slade is a god. RPattz mmmmm is all i can say! Perfection. Even with the god awful wig this movie was the tops.

    ReplyDelete
  18. STY - regarding the pause button thing...both times I saw Eclipse, I raised my hand like I had a remote and could pause or rewind something I missed. I did it a LOT. People were staring. My friends thought I'd developed some weird form of Terrets (Turrets? No, that's on a castle...). The first thing I said after seeing Eclipse the first time was "when does it come out on DVD?" You know, so I can watch the leg hitch scene over and over and over. I don't normally get all worked up over RP, but my GOD that scene was total chick porn...minus nudity. Sigh.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Everything STY said times a million. I need this DVD RTFN! Eventhough the closeups were so extreme I could count Edward's sideburn hairs, I was still blown away by the hawtness. I couldn't even process it. Any remaining math knowledge that was locked in the recesses of my brain have been replaced by images of Edward's pale, super sized face.

    ReplyDelete
  20. STY, in regards to the hat, I would totally endorse you checking out the etsy site above recommended by Cat (I always love to promote the work of my fellow knitters!). But I wanted to make sure you didn't buy another "Bella at La Push Beach hat" for LKW. I would love to make one for her to complete the trifecta! :)

    Oh, and...LURVED Eclipse, by the way, and agree with all of your observations, especially how fabutastic Robward was looking....yummmmm. Can't wait to see it again, and again, and again, and again....

    ReplyDelete
  21. @Mel - Erm, I'm speechless! You want to make me my very own hat?? That makes me squee and dance for joy I tell you!! I will wear it in Forks with pride... Very very cool!!

    ReplyDelete
  22. The fuck-hawtness of this movie was simply off the SQUEEEEEE charts! Therefore, I totally support JJ in her efforts to compensate Mr. Slade for making this the best Twi movie yet! Where to begin?

    1)Robward, my darling, you stole my heart and melted my panties in every one of your scenes! The proposal scene made me tear up and love you more than I already do, the meadow scenes made me want to lick that sexy jaw of yours(I puffy heart all the close ups), and the bed scene...well that just made me all tingly in all the right places!!! So basically thanks for being so fucking fine...we all really appreciate it!

    2)Jasper + Confederate soldier uniform = Sweet Lord...Total SQUEE-NESS going on! (At my virgin viewing I scared the folks beside me when he rode up on the horse! Oops!)

    3) Charlie, I. LOVE. YOU. and your stache! In all three movies...you never disappoint!

    4)LEG HITCHING...forget melting panties...mine simply combusted!!! (I know I previously mentioned the bed scene in my shout out to Robward...but lets face it...it's worth mentioning again and again and again!)

    5)Action sequences were EPIC!
    All the Victoria chasing, tree jumping, fight training, newborn killing...awesomeness! (Wolfpack included)

    6)I said it before and I'll say it again...the proposal actually had me choked up. It was so ooey gooey sweet (in a good way)! Very nicely done!

    7)Riley...um hot much?!?

    I think that covers my absolute favorite parts. I second the posts by LKW & STY, as well as Lorabell from TCA. Excellent job as always ladies!

    I have seen it 4 times in the regular theater...now if I can only wait until Tuesday I will be hitting the road with my Twihard besties to see the epic-ness in IMAX! I am calling in sick to work for the special occasion. Maybe we'll even take cardboard cut-out Edward to keep us company on our journey. I just hope I don't embarrass myself by squeeing excessively or trying to dry hump the screen or anything like that. WOOT!!!

  23. 10 minutes into the movie and I was already jonesing for the DVD - never got around to getting New Moon because it was just 'meh' for me. But Eclipse??!!....couldn't have asked for much better (except maybe some fan fic versions). You are totally on point STY. And @dowde, I agree with all you said....especially about the Jacob (yes he is legal, and I even said that to myself in the theater) scenes.

  24. I had a whopper of an evening, reading the fab MoTU outtake (mine came late, some f-up and watching HPotter 4 on TV, yep, the one that kicked everything off for us.

    Ever wonder what would we be oggling 24/7 if RPatts hadn't been cast as Cedric? His acting skills are practically nonexistant in HP4 but, who the hell cares? It was unnerving to be reading about Fifty, and simultaneously watching "him" at age 17.

    The face that launched 1000 moans....

  25. Thinking of Rpattz at 17 makes me cringe... hard to believe Edward was only 17 [shudder].

  26. Movie was Fabtastic!

    Make-up still on the fucking flourey side.

    Carlisle's hair still looks like my dead guniea pig of 20 years ago.

    Edward's sweat pants sucks donkey dicks and..

    The ring - I would throw it back at him - Pave set is cheap crap, give me a 3 carat plus diamond and we'll talk about it..

    ReplyDelete
  27. @ LKW - Of course I will make you a hat! I had actually planned on having it to you already, but I am a horrible procrastinator.

    I will have it to you before FOOOOOOOOORKS, and I better get a picture of the 3 of you with them on in La Push...I don't care how drunk you are! :)

  28. i have one eensy thing to ad to your "rob is so fucking hot" eclipse post...

    well, bedsides "YES, oh my sweet god, YES, he is!"

    during all the sucky face, leg hitch-y moments, to get into it at all i have to pretend that i'm in place of kristen stewart (not that i have a problem with that). but i honestly feel zero chemistry coming from her. he may as well be throwing his smoldering stare at an inanimate object. she just...doesn't contribute anything in the sexy scenes. i've thought so from the beginning and it's a constant disappointment.
    i mean, how can she look that awkward and bored while kissing rob?! i. don't. get. it.

  29. Umm, is Myg ok? No Osa Bella, and I for one am jonesing. Myg, is everything ok?? Not hassling you, just concerned.

  30. Loved the movie. I think I was the only one in the whole teather who was fangirling like crazy when Jane and The Volturi showed.

    I think I creamed myself during the leghitch and the first scene in the meadow was adorable.

    Riley was damn hot. I'd marry him, if he wasn't dead.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I am virgin no more, he,he.

    Cut out of work and saw the 12:45 showing!

    Now I can agree with all of you, jeesh, they finally listened to the fans.

    Just Emmett was worth the $8 bucks and then some. Never mind E & J and J.

    And I went ALONE. Heaven.

    6)I said it before and I'll say it again...the proposal actually had me choked up. It was so ooey gooey sweet (in a good way)! Very nicely done!

    7)Riley...um hot much?!?

    I think that covers my absolute favorite parts. I second the posts by LKW & STY, as well as Lorabell from TCA. Excellent job as always ladies!

    I have seen it 4 times in the regular theater...now if I can only wait until Tuesday I will be hitting the road with my Twihard besties to see the epic-ness in IMAX! I am calling in sick to work for the special occasion. Maybe we'll even take cardboard cut-out Edward to keep us company on our journey. I just hope I don't embarrass myself by squeeing excessively or trying to dry hump the screen or anything like that. WOOT!!!

  35. STY - regarding the pause button thing...both times I saw Eclipse, I raised my hand like I had a remote and could pause or rewind something I missed. I did it a LOT. People were staring. My friends thought I'd developed some weird form of Terrets (Turrets? No, that's on a castle...). The first thing I said after seeing Eclipse the first time was "when does it come out on DVD?" You know, so I can watch the leg hitch scene over and over and over. I don't normally get all worked up over RP, but my GOD that scene was total chick porn...minus nudity. Sigh.

  36. As much as I loooooved the leg hitch like a whore loves cock, I agree, I was much too short. I would have been happy with a 10 minute leg hitch scene... although my lady bits may have exploded in the theater and well, that could get messy!

    I totally can't wait for this DVD... it's gonna get so much play, it will for sure wear out.

  37. I'm with June Velcro - I came out feeling....kinda disappointed.*gasp*

    I didn't feel it depicted the love triangle AT ALL. At no point in time did I ever feel like Bella was stuck in the middle trying to decide between the two. I am 100% Team Edward but god, I even ended up feeling sorry for Jacob in that he was never made out to be a serious contender, and for me to feel sorry for that whiny child, something must have been up.

    And that scene after the Jella kiss? I love him, but I love you more, end of scene. WTF was with that? Where was the remorse, the guilt, the upset? I just wanted to scream!

    I think reading the book just before seeing the film was a mistake because I was making comparisons all the time. As in Bella NEVER says no to marrying Edward in the book. She makes it clear she doesn't like the idea of marriage but she never says no to Edward. But there it was, right at the start of the film so that pissed me off to begin with.

    I'm seeing it again tomorrow so I can hopefully leave the book behind and enjoy it more as a film.

    On the plus side, Rob was fuckalicious, the Victoria chase was awesome, the sex talk was fabulously awkward and the bedroom scene made my heart leap out my chest. But the biggest surprise of all? Hello, Jasper, where did that hotness creep up from?
