Lunch Break: Bill Condon & Mackenzie Foy talk “Breaking Dawn – Part 1”
by LauraLoo
The day of waiting (1 year to be exact) is almost over! Come midnight tonight, fans will pour into theaters to see the fourth installment of the Twilight series – Breaking Dawn, Part 1.
Director Bill Condon speaks to Hollyscoop about his favorite part of the movie, the childbirth.

Also, a bonus cut. Meet adorable Mackenzie Foy, the hybrid daughter (vampire baby) of Edward and Bella Cullen. I’ll be curious to see how much footage is actually her and how much is actually CGI.

Maybe I’m just a Bram Stoker style traditionalist, but I have to say that I can’t stand Stephanie Meyer’s tweeny take on what vampires are and what they can and can’t do. They shouldn’t be able to go out in the daylight and being technically dead, they definitely shouldn’t be able to reproduce (no bodily fluids). Of course I said the same thing when watching Angel–though no one listened to me–but still,Angel was streaks ahead of Twilight.
Okay, rant is over and now going to clean house and watch old episodes of Dark Shadows… :)
Love me some Twilight!!!!!
Jennifer Starr, my husband has a shirt that says ‘then Buffy staked Edward, the end’. Which I find extremly funny. He’s a big fan of both Buffy (Angle mostly) and Twilight. I’ll watch/read them, but not overly impressed. I like some flavor to my vampires (The Dresden File’s vamps are probably my favorite among well known works). ;) But I prefer fantasy to urban fantasy.
ANNE RICE. ANNE RICE!!!!!!!
Part 1 – thumbs up overall.
Bella’s emaciated body and protruding stomach were very well done.
Only a few seconds of Mackenzie (Reneesme) – just enough to introduce her for BD-2.
Burning scene and ‘memory lane’ were awesome.
However, the scenes with the wolves (and Jacob as a human) left me wanting.
