In which I squee and fangirl over Breaking Dawn...
+ Okay, so I didn't have that many expectations going into the movie because it is a Twilight movie after all, but regardless the trailer and tweets from my friends did get my hopes up a little bit. And I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised with the movie and not disappointed!
Things I LOVED:
- The whole wedding. It was absolutely beautiful. The set, Bella's dress, Bella and Charlie. All of it. I couldn't have hoped for anything more perfect. And the vows and 'Flightless Bird, American Mouth' playing during their vows?? DEAD. AND THE KISS, OMG! Slightly inappropriate considering their family and friends were sitting there and watching, but SO cute, nonetheless :')
- I cannot even begin to express how much I love movie Charlie. He's hilarious and amazing and adlfjsdlkajdf he's just the best. His toast was just perfect. And I love Jessica. SO MUCH. Anna Kendrick portrays her SO well.
- The honeymoon was perfect, obviously. I just want to say that Edward and Bella are always supposed to be happy and cute and smiling and silly in love NOT brooding and looking miserable together so I was ecstatic that we got to see them actually acting like a happy couple. So in love and flirty and cute and can't keep their hands off each other in love. UGH, I wanted to die from how perfect it all was. My ABSOLUTE favorite scene from the honeymoon was this scene BECAUSE OMG, SHE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT SHE'S DOING, BUT SHE'S TRYING TO SEDUCE HIM AND HE'S GIGGLING AND ROLLING OVER, AND I CAN'T GET OVER HOW ADORABLY PERFECT THEY ARE.
I can't not talk about the sex scene because UNF ROB HAS SUCH A SEXY BACK. I'm pretty sure I was drooling while watching that scene. And the sex scene, overall, was done SO well. It wasn't tacky or choppy. It flowed together really well.
- LET'S TALK ABOUT EDWARD TALKING TO BELLA'S STOMACH AND BEING ALL CUTE AND KISSING BELLA'S STOMACH AND TALKING TO THE BABY BECAUSE I DIED. NO REALLY, I DIED. SO MUCH PERFECTION IN THIS MOVIE, I CAN'T HANDLE IT. a;ldfkjad;lfkjasdflj

Things I DIDN'T LOVE:
- The Wolves. I mean, what was that ridiculous echo-y voice thing that was going on when they talked in their wolf form? I COULD NOT STOP LAUGHING. It was just so ridiculous and lame and took away from the flow of the movie.
- The venom flowing through Bella's veins in the last scene. I didn't mind it, separately, but it didn't seem to fit in with the movie. It could be just me, but I wish they would have done that differently.
- JACOB IMPRINTING ON THE BABY. OMG, I could not contain my laughter and it was just ridiculous and hilarious and just really bad.

Even the acting seemed better this time around. Kristen wasn't as awkward as she is in the other movies, and Rob wasn't mumbling his lines! Overall, though, I really enjoyed the movie. Much more than I thought it would. Even the birthing scene was intense and gross in a good way. I really thought it was done well. I'm really impressed with the way Bill Condon made the movie, AND IS IT JUST ME, OR WAS THE SCRIPT BETTER THIS TIME AROUND, TOO? All I know is that I really need to go see this movie again.
