Here's Your Minute-By-Minute Play-By-Play Of Twilight: Breaking Dawn
LatestLast night, I joined the Twihards at a midnight screening of Twilight: Breaking Dawn. Since I first covered the franchise in 2008, I’ve gone to midnight screenings of each one, and I have to say, as events, they are getting more and more subdued. Maybe the fans are growing up. Perhaps vampires and werewolves have lost their bite. (A little — the flick is still on track to be number one at the box office this weekend.) The theater was definitely packed. I took notes throughout the flick. So if you want to know exactly what happens without actually paying for a ticket, read on.
12:06
In the theater. Not a lot of teens… the two ladies next to me are well over 40. And excited.
12:21
The Hunger Games trailer comes on. Screams, applause.
12:22
The screen goes dark and the movie begins with a shot of the moon… There’s excited chatter and then a loud “Shhh!” from everyone not chattering.
12:23
Jacob’s shirt comes off less than 1 minute in! Screams!
12:31
Edward to Bella: “I’ll meet you at the altar.” Some one in the row in front of me goes, “aww!” with an uptick at the end like she’s seen an adorable puppy.
12:36
Bella’s walking up the aisle. The back of her dress is kind of sexy.
12:39
Slow-mo kissing. Goes on for a while. My friend Workhorse audibly rolls his eyes.
12:41
Booboo! This conversation seems to be about whether or not Edward will fuck Bella to death on their wedding night. “You’ll kill her!”
