Movie Review: Breaking Dawn, Part One
Nov. 18th, 2011 02:49 amJust got back so here are my first thoughts:
*This one had lots of visual and aural callbacks to the first film, in particular a great sequence of Edward's flashback to his bad ol' days, in a movie theater and the collection of graduation caps.
*The toasts. The deleted scenes/outtakes for the DVD will be hysterical.
*Edward and Bella playing chess. My response: You kids just do not bring the intellectual heft or the sexiness like Charles and Erik. Candy's response: "I kept thinking of that conversation from Blazing Saddles: 'What do you like to do?' 'Well...play chess...screw...' '...Let's play chess!'" We laughed hysterically for like ten minutes, I swear.
*The Alpha-off was precious.
It was magnificent, magnificent crack. STAY FOR THE STUFF AFTER THE FIRST HUNK OF CREDITS. They have more crack. *G*
