Breaking Dawn in Fifteen Minutes

[cleolinda]

Part One, at any rate. I do want to go back and do the two Deathly Hallows...es, but this is what we've got for now: the movie about which I spent three years muttering, "I have no idea how they're going to do this." If you need to catch up:

Twilight in Fifteen Minutes
New Moon in Fifteen Minutes
Eclipse in Fifteen Minutes
Recaps of the books

Random, but I read a short article--that was not an article, really, but an in-box blurb thing--in Entertainment Weekly in which a really real true OBGYN comments on the birth scene.

It is hilarious and amazing, especially the part where the doc is basically "There is no possible way I can comment on this."

Haaaaaaaaa.

I saw that too!

EW not-so-subtly put it right below Lisa Schwartzbaum's review in this week's issue. It reads

The whole Twilight series is just a giant fanfic that got published. That's it. If I think of it that way, I get really bitter, but not as furious as if this were some real series written by a serious author. Of course Meyer forced the director to let her sit in on the wedding--this is her fanfic compensation fantasy made real. I'd do the same thing if I were a repressed, middle-aged Mormon housewife with a serious hard-on for teenaged boys and a love of fanfic.

I still remember what I thought when the C-section thing got revealed as Something That Existed in the book--that's when the whole WTF-ness cleared for me and I saw this series for what it is.
