I would just like to say that my daughter and I stood in line for 5 hours prior to this movie coming out into the theater. Personally as a 35 old mother I didn't think that this whole "Twilight" vampire/werewolf phenomenon would last very long. When I first heard of the Twilight movie I told my daughter I was not going to take her to the movies to see something about vampires. So, when the DVD came out she begged me to buy it for her so I broke down and did I have to say to my surprise I really truly enjoyed the movie I had an instant romance with Jacob Black although they didn't show him as often as they did in New Moon I still officially became a part of Team Jacob. Of course that is my sons name but still have you seen his abs wow LOL anyway I have become a really great fan of the Twilight Saga and I if you think that is great check out Vampire Diaries you want to see some hot vampires they put Edward to shame seriously it come on the CW Thursday nights @ 8pm. I am so addicted to that show, But, back to the topic of Eclipse this movie was amazing from beginning to end personally I think Bella Swan is a tease and that is how they portray her character I feel that she changes her mind too much one minute in the Twilight she is absolutely obsessed with Edward then he bails on her and she turns to Jacob of course at first it is nothing other then a friendship but then Jacob has to go and confess his feelings to her and that is where the story gets complicated first Jacob makes a promise to Bella that he would never leave her then he turns around and does exactly that. I didn't understand that part or why Stephanie Myers chose to have Jacob leave Bella after he promised her he wouldn't because that is what Edward did to her after endangering her life. So, for me New Moon was a little more confusing and the story kind of went in circles for me until the end but of course leaving the world hanging with a proposal I mean come on you know how long we had to wait. Then as I am watching Eclipse I mean come on why make Bella want to initiate the sex it is bad enough personally she is coming off as a tease as it is she is leading two arch enemies along. She is constantly telling Jacob that she loves him but then she tells Edward the same thing it really doesn't make sense then she clobbers Jacob right in the face when he kisses her and then she begs him to kiss her I mean that to me spells TEASE. I enjoyed the movie I just wasn't sure why Stephanie Myers portrays Bella Swan as a tease. I feel that she is torn between two people but they both abandoned her when she needed them the most. Overall I would say I am excited about the release of the third installment of the Twilight saga. God bless and I hope everyone has a safe and pleasant holiday season. Read more

Eclipse answered a ton of questions and just as the previous two movies gave more incite into the less savage account of Vampirism while at the same time showing that not all vampires were loveable, cuddly beautiful darlings - this movie seemed to go well indepth at showing a kinder and better werewolf - and why they were not so much a creature to be dreaded as all previous movies had portrayed them but actually a protector of sorts. And in it's zeal to be the protectors of humans, would even work with "good" vampires (their actual sworn enemy) in order to protect the humans if they had too. Never mind the fact that Jacob Black had grown from a cute young boy to a very beautiful and very loving young man who co-incidently also loved Bella Swan as fiercely as his rival Edward. I loved the fact I wanted Edward and Bella together, but at the same time I wanted that same perfect joy and love for Jacob. I believe I was feeling as conflicted as Bella was obvious feeling - even though there was no doubt from the very beginning it was as Bella said - she loved them both, but she loved Edward more. I loved all the action of Eclipse, I think the best of all the movies - the protections they provided Bella - the big battle and exposing the fact the Voltori were not quite the good Vampire Law makers they pretended to be - but were selfish and self righteous pigs. I have to say I learned to purely detest Jane from the prior movie and again saw my detesting of her grow when she could have prevented any battle with the Cullins, and chose not to - so it did my heart good to see her again miffed by the Cullins coming through what she wanted to happen to them and what actually did happen. It further confirmed my detest of Jane and the Voltari, when they handled the situation of the remaining "newborn" in the manner they did - as if she was not satisfied unless she always had the final word and showed her "power". (Kudos goes to the adorable Dakota Fanning - who I actually love to pieces - and her very right on performance of the ruthless Jane. She allowed me to hate Jane, while still truly adoring her real sweet self. Now that was acting perfection). Needless to say the end of this movie left me compelled to see the next movie even though I knew in my heart it would be the "forever after" fairytale ending it deserved - I truly wanted to see that big wedding and enjoyed the fact knowing Bella had left all details in very capable hands. I was also curious how this would all be handled by Jacob who had left no doubt at all in the fact he truly and completely loved Bella. Read more
