I laughed my head off just watching the review. I don't think I need to see the movie now.
And I don't know why people are saying the movie "almost" gave Stephanie Meyer the finger. It DID. Maybe not intentionally (though how they could possibly not realize what they were doing, I can't imagine), but by actually showing the climactic battle and then revealing it all to be a dream, they showed every single person who went to see the movie because they genuinely like Twilight how bad the series' canon really is compared to what any decent writer would have come up with.
If it was done on purpose, congratulations, creative team. You have eternally won my respect. If it was by accident... you have my sympathy. You've still done the world a great service, and for that I cannot bring myself to criticize you. And good luck living down being responsible for the worst film franchise to become this popular in possibly forever.

I didn't know that turning a child into a vampire was supposed to be a heinous crime in the Twilight universe. I'm sure she stole that bit from Anne Rice.
Anyway, I'm sure I'll watch it when the Rifftrax comes out. I'm going to spend as little money as possible on this movie, since I really don't want to support them.

I went to see this with four friends of mine. We sat in the front row because we were hoping that someone would die and we could do an improve dance when it happened.
We were so happy for ten minutes...
So, so very bad. Completely and utterly terrible. Micheal Sheen's laugh, when he hears Renesme's(sp?) heartbeat, saves this entire movie though. Please someone out there make a loop. I want it as my ring tone or for my morning alarm.

I watched the second and fourth films whilst doing other stuff. Obviously they are both utter twaddle but Michael Sheen is glorious! Just hamming it up and devouring the scenery. Plus he's a great actor so he's allowed to have fun in this trainwreck. i hope he got a good paycheck because he deserves it
Before I would have never even considered watching a minute of this.
Now I'm wondering whether to watch the whole thing or just the final battle...

Aww, this makes me *sad face*.
One one hand, I have infinite amounts of shame in admitting that I've seen the first three movies (I have friends who really like this gay vampire shit) but haven't seen Breaking Dawn part 1 (Even I have my limits).
But this review makes it sound like this might be worthwhile. And considering fuck all else came out this week for me to go and see...
So what do I do? Go and see this shit (but apparently very funny for it) film, or go see Skyfall for the third time?

So, pretty much Highlander meets Dragon Ball Z with Vampires and Werewolves... those 5 to 10 minutes alone almost make this movie worthwhile. Almost.
it's funny how people think it's over when in the newest videos the video right before this one is "The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones - Trailer"
having read 3 out of 4 books, i have to say that it is a lot like Twilight, just more... well everything really. 4 books are out yet and more to come(?) and they can easily make 2-3 movies out of each book. so it will be interesting to see if moviebob reviews that as well.

That's nice, I'm still not going to see it.
EDIT: Although I do have to wonder, if Stephanie Meyer is such a bad writer, how the hell did she ever get published?
