I love the "wait-I don't" cuz she kept doing that in the first movie over and over and over. It was like she couldn't remember her lines and they didn't care to do another take.

Meanwhile, people are now starting to figure out that Bella and Edward's relationship is abusive after reading National Domestic Violence hotline signs that a relationship is abusive. Though I will point out the Edward sending Bella into the glass table incident really was an accident since he was trying to prevent Jasper making her dinner. Also, I would argue that by Eclipse Bella's relationship with Jacob is also abusive. In other words, none of Twilight relationships are healthy! So much this. It sort of feels like those who haven't tortured themselves with the books have latched onto "Team Jacob" as being the "healthy" choice, and it's like, brother, you don't even KNOW. At least Bella actually wants Edward. But mostly these articles are such a huge "DUH" for me. Seriously, way to jump on the bandwagon years after this stuff has already been beaten to death.

Jacob in New Moon (the book) really is the better choice, but I agree that by Eclipse he's douchin' it up big time. Jacob forcing Bella to kiss him, and Charlie's subsequent "Good for you, son!" made me almost throw the book across the room. UGH.

I think the constant guilt trips and the "Maybe I'll just kill myself!" in Eclipse bother me even more than the forced kiss. He is just relentless, and after awhile I just wanted to deck him. It made it really hard for me to buy that Bella suddenly realized she WAS in love with him. It was like she felt like she SHOULD be in love with him. He's better in NM, but even then he does crap like tattling on her to her dad about the motorcycles, just to get her grounded so she can't see Edward, and just in general, I find him just as controlling as Edward, the only difference being that Bella's not as crazy in love with him so it doesn't work as well coming from him.

Well I didn't completely hate it. But it sucked more than I thought it would. I actually thought Twilight was more entertaining. This just dragged on in so many parts. With the exception of the Vulturri scene, and [white]Victoria being chased by the wolves[/white], the rest was Snoozeville. I don't think Kristin's acting improved in this one either, which I knew it wouldn't. The pig squealing during the nightmares was just too much. On a positive note, I thought she looked really pretty, and I thought her and Taylor had good chemistry.
It's really a damn shame that they recast Rachelle. Even though she had no lines, homegirl definitely has a presence. The little shot where [white] She pokes her head out of the water[/white] was genuinely creepy IMO. Plus the girl has the most beautiful hair ever.

I heard that the kid who plays Embry is actually part of the same LDS ward that Stephenie Meyer is in. I don't know why, but that surprised me.

LDS is short for Latter Day Saints, a thread of the Mormon faith.

LDS ward = Mormon congregation.
