  Speaker 2: Usually I pick out the classics and Samantha doesn't know

  Speaker 2: what they're going to be, so it's a bit of

  Speaker 2: laughter from Yes, including on our recent classic about Twilights.

• 2:27
  Speaker 5: I'm so excited And in honor of the recent solar eclipse,
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: we're using this as an excuse, yes, which we really
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: haven't even acknowledged until now. So we thought we would
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: come back to our long overdue look at the life
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: changing classics from the Twilight saga, specifically New Moon and Eclipse,
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: because they are Oh they're due, And the only way
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: we can do this right is to have our X Burt,
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: besides of course myself on all things Twilight, coming on
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: with us super producer Christina.
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah, hello, everybody, I am so excited. I'm so excited.
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: First of all, after we did Twilight We got an
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: immediate email from Christina going, uh, this is this is
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: my This was my favorite. I have so many things,
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: including T shirts, which we have seen a few. You did,
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: you did show us a few. Just now we got
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: to see two figurines of Edward Slash Robert Pattinson, and
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: I feel like it's to be on social media, Christina.
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: I know it's what I have in Atlanta, so I'm
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: not from Atlanta, and I'm when I moved here, I
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: only brought the essentials. So the essentials were my two
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: Edward Cullen toys. But I think it ran figure action figures.
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: You could say I had so many shirts, magazines. I
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: think it was a little obsessive, like almost in a
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: bad way. But I collected stuff and it was fun.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: So it's fun.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: That's exactly correct. That's fun. We're so glad you're are
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: able to be a part of our Sminty Twilight adventures
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: because we have a few more coming up. I still
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: think we need to do the gender swapping book, which
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: I sent to you, Christina, as like, eventually I need
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: you to read this and tell us about it. Please,
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: And you're welcome, Annie, You're welcome for this adventure like
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: you read. I don't want to read it because I
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: did the flip of Edward perspective of the initial Twilight,
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: So I don't know if I'm ready for the gender
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: swap like that was. Any I don't know if I'm ready.
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: I don't know if I'll ever be ready for that
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: because coming back into it, as much as I loved it,
• 4:48
  Speaker 5: because it was so entertaining, it was so good and
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: I was a fan, but looking back on it, I'm like,
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: oh God, this writing is so bad. But such a
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: c anyway, and yes, we are going to jump right
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: in just to kind of at the beginning of all
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: of this. Of course, I have a feeling we have
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: a few uh we do, don't we any? I think
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: we've heard from a few listeners who were Twilight Hearts.
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: Twy Weren't they name right? Okay? I was like, there's
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: a name. I think I remember twy Heart's out there
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: who may want to jump in and be like, you
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: missed this part. You should have talked about this part
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: or hears some behind the scenes, And yes, once upon
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: a time I remember watching some behind the scenes and
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: even the director's cut where they all talk the two
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: where Kristen and Robert Pattinson get on there and have
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: a whole like conversation about the movie. I watched all
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: those as well, but I've forgotten all the good facts. Christina.
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: I hope you, hope you remember all the good facts.
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: My memory is not the best, but I did. I
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: did follow a lot of Twilight websites back in the day,
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: and I was an avid visitor of Twilight fan websites,
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: and I used to save every photo I found of
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: Robert Pattinson. I just would save it in a folder
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: just for later.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: I wish I had photos of my old childhood bedroom
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: absolutely covered in Twilight posters, especially the ones you would
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: get for magazines. Yes, they were on my ceiling, they
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: were on all sides of the walls. I was enamored
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: with him. I still am.
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: Who wasn't.
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: Yeah, honestly, who wasn't.
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: And yes, before we go into it, there was a
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: lot of controversy with the movie that I'm about to
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: talk about, New Moon, because there was some big directional
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: changes and people were pissed. People were not happy about
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: some of the changes, including Katherine Hardwick being taken off
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: and having a man Chris Whitez come in and take over.
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: There was this conversation about what will this look like,
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: who will take over how because the aesthetic was that
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: Catherine had kind of developed this world and creating the cast,
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: like she created this cast and this chemistry, and everybody
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: was like, oh no, don't do this. There was talks
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: about the fact that Taylor Lautner was going to be
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: replaced because he was not big enough, like the buff
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: enough as we will say, yeah, yes, because he was
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: too small at the beginning and didn't seem to fit.
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: So he had to re audition after like pumping up essentially,
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: like getting really built and going on this intensive diet
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: to show that he could be this character once again
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: to come back. And I think Christen Stewart also like
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: rally for him because they were apparently friends that could
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: have just been you know. There was a conversation about
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: who was going to be a part of the Quilliute
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: slash the wolf Pack, and there was a lot of
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: conversation and they did hold true to making sure that
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: they used Indigenous people as part of this role, so
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: at the very least they listened that far into it.
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: I can't remember any of the oh yeah, the bad wigs. Fine,
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: I think clips finally figured out how bad the whigs were,
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: like you're a multi million dollar movie or the these
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: wigs so bad, so bad. Poor poor Nikki Reid, she'd
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: been through some things and they finally got her a
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: wig and that wig was still awful, and you're like, why,
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: just why, why would you do this to Alice? Anyway,
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: all those things, that's the that's some of the controversy.
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: You know how many people base their haircuts off of
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: Alice too back in the day when the movie came
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: out so bad, I wish it was me. I'm surprised
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: I didn't, but Alice haircut.
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: Such a big deal it was, and it got better,
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: thank God along the way. But yes, since we've gone
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: through that controversy, let's jump in. I'm gonna do a
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: quick plot of New Moon for you. Uh So let's start.
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: We have the opening scene in which, uh we have
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: Bella having this awful dream about awful I say that
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: she's thinking she's seen her grandmother in the meadows where
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: she meets up with Edward to see his glistening, sparkling
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: skin and it turns out that it's actually her as
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: an old person aging while Edward never ages and him
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: telling our happy birthday. Really awkward scene, fun, fun awkward
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: scene that happens, and she wakes up to this nightmare
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: with Charlie saying happy birthday, getting her presence and then saying,
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: I see Grays dead jokes. But yes, Bella and Edward
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: are still in high school. But now we've come upon
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: Bella's eighteenth birthday, which means she's officially technically older than
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: her love Edward, and she's having a panic attack. She
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: does not like this. Then with that comes the bad
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: birthday party, because you know, Alice loves loves some partying,
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: gets her address, says, come on over, it's just gonna
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: be yes, We're gonna get you some presents, and oh no,
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: poor little clumsy Bella gets a paper cut, makes jasper,
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: training one jot her to eat her obviously, and this
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: whole thing happens, and oh no, Edward's in turmoil. Everybody's
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: so upset, except for the father figure Carlisle, who for
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: years have just understood to withstand the temptation of blood.
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: And it's become a doctor. We know this. So he
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: stitches her up and tells her I've done this because
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: you know, I owe humanity. That's his explanation. But all
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: of this leads to Edward having a crisis, thinking we
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: need to leave because it's we're putting her in danger.
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: So he tells Bella he doesn't want her anymore, and
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: she's like, oh no, what okay? And he does this
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: all in the woods, which is really like to me,
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: I'm like, you know, she's really clumsy. You know, she
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: gets lost. Why would you do this? And thedn't leave
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: her in the woods? Why did you want her to
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: immediately die?
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: I was like what anyway, So she's very clumsy and emotional,
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: and she is in the woods at this point and
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: just goes into a fetal position after she's trying to
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: chase after him and it gets dark and it's cold,
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: and then eventually she's found by Sam, who is a
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: new character, well not new new ish character. We've met
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: him before, but he's been recast because the previous Sam
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: was not buff enough and I'm gonna say buffalot then
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: this entire time, so they recast him. But he rescues her,
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: takes her back, and we are introduced to the new rugged,
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: shirtless crew of Forks, Washington of the qual you people.
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: Bella at this time is wrestling in her torment and depression,
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: screaming in the night, real harsh screams. Uh Soon finds
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: a comfort in her best friend Jacob, who has actually
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: puts it become again buff. I'm going to use this
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: because it was used and I just think it's a
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: hilarious term. And then of course jokes about steroids, because
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: you know, why not. Also, we have the iconic line, Bella,
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: where have you been Loca?
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: That is, I wrote that down in my notes while
• 11:34
  Speaker 6: I was watching it, Where the hell you been Loca?
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: Where the hell's I think Joey, our friend of the show,
• 11:42
  Speaker 6: Joey has that shirt?
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: Do they think they just started watching it? Right?
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: This?
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: This has been recent for them because they are about
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: They're pretty like they are recent. Is yeah, like I
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: think the last time we talked about Twilight as yes, yeah,
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: during a staff meeting, we absolutely talked about Twilight, you know,
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: but I believe they were like, yeah, I just watched
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: that not too long ago, and I was like, we
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: were like what, because it's making a comeback as it should,
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: as it should, but anyways, yes, that that iconic line.
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: But Soon finds when she puts herself in danger, she
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: can see visions of Edward, who is absent and by
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: the way, another part of the controversy of this movie
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: was how are you going to do this without Robert
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: Pattinson because he is absent through the majority of this movie,
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: So everybody was really up in arms about what they're going
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: to do, and then they were like, we fixed it.
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: Bed cgi of Edward when she puts herself in danger,
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: q her adventures and motorcycles and roaming in the woods
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: alone and by the way, during this time, the town
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: soon has a rise of accidents and tells of large
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: bears or creatures all around, which she soon encounters a
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: large pack of wolves who attack the vampire Laurent if
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: you remember he was that crew oh No from the
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: previous Twilight, but he came back threatening to eat Bella
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: because Victoria, remember Victoria, she's been looking for him and
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: Lauren's been helping. But with that, he gets attacked by
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: the wolves and you know, dismembered, and she runs home
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: back to tell her father about it, and she figured
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: out what these things were. They're giant wolves again Bessygi.
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: Then while we find out while she's hanging out with Jacob,
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: including they go to the movies together. He leaves do
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: to not feeling well after a really intense but really
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: fastly acted argument with friend Mike, who was with him
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: at the time. He despairs for a while, telling Bella
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: he doesn't feel well, and then Soom tells her he
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: can't hang out with her anymore. And he comes up
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: with his fresh haircut, and now he's shirtless, and everybody's like,
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: why is he shirtless? Oh my gosh. She finds out
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: that he's been hanging around Sam and the crew, who
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: we previously didn't really like, and he was all like,
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: they're a gang and they're doing some some weird stuff.
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: I don't want to hang out with him, and they
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: keep trying to recruit me, and he finally got recruited,
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: but alas she soon discovers, he is a shape shifting
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: where wolf. I guess the wolf is out of the bag,
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: says one of the other wolves who was created to
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: protect the land and the qual people. And there's a
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: treaty between the qualities where wolves and the vampires. So
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: on all of this, Uh, we have Victoria, who has
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: been the one that's been causing the chaos and all
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: the deaths. Who's on the hunt for now and that's
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: why so many wolves are popping up with her discovery. Uh.
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: With all of this, Bella is now able to fully
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: hang out with Jacob again and the entire wolf posse.
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: We also learned a little bit about imprinting. Not really,
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: we don't know, because we have the two Sam and
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: Emily who is Sam's mate, and they're all happy or whatever,
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: but not a little family as a will. So they're
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: able to hang out again. Great, But during this time
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: they are still hunting Victoria, who is all all around
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: about and at one point one of the members pretty
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: big members of the Qualiat family, it's murdered by her.
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: And during the same time, because you know, chaos is great,
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: Bella decides she would try cliff jumping with no experience
• 15:13
  Speaker 5: whatsoever in the middle of the winter why not, which
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: almost kills her, but she's rescued by Jacob. Yay, however,
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: and we do see a little popping head of like
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: Victoria because she'd caught her scent and was trying to.
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: Go after her.
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: Blah blah blah. However, this starts a whole chain of
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: events where Alice thinks that Bella has died and comes
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: back to check up on her, in which Edward hears
• 15:31
  Speaker 5: about it from Rosalie because Rosalie's messy as hell about
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: what Alice had seen and calls, and through a misunderstanding,
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: Edward thinks that she is dead because Jacob's like, no,
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: she's or he's at the hospital. Essentially, enter the Vulture
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: and we are now introduced to a whole new gang
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: of bad with the ruling vampires who live in Italy
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: and have been around for a while. Edward goes to
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: ask for them to kill him, and all these things happen.
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: He tries to show his self in the sun during
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: a very big festival, val Tory Festival in Italy to
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: show himself and and to like expose the vampire, but
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: he is saved a Bella who does a very big
• 16:11
  Speaker 5: launch and spider monkey jump you know I'm referring to that,
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: onto him and saves him from that. But then we
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: all get to meet the Vulturi, who are big, bad people.
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: They barely escape death at this point. They're they're talking
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: about killing Bella and they're like, no, don't do it.
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: And there's a small like battle that happens very quick,
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: crunchy battle. All these are very crunchy, which all stops
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: because Alice says she's gonna turn. I seen the visions,
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: and she shows him a vision because like both the
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: head Vulturi can read thoughts as long as he's touching them,
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: and he sees a very bad scene of Edward and
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: Bella whimsically running through the forest and very like old
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: school clothing. I didn't know. It's like, this is still
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: very Mormonesque ideal, romantic ideal, I feel like. And so
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: he lets them go and he's very excited. So they
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: go back home and we have the ending of the movie,
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: which the family vote on whether or not to have
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: Bella turn into a vampire, and all of them except
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: for Rosa, Lee and Edward vote yes because they love her.
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: You're already part of the family. Hell yeah, come on
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: was the reactions, but Edward only concedes if Bella agrees
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: to marry him. Insane. Anything to add you two that
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: I missed?
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, yes, okay, I need to add the soundtrack
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: for this movie. New Moon really I think is my
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: favorite out of all the Rememberance Twilight movies. It is amazing.
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: I mean, Stephanie Meyer I think had a big you
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: know say and what she chose really good bands and
• 17:50
  Speaker 6: they made a lot of original songs for I think
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: all the movies, but this soundtrack I think stuck with
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: me the most. There's so many good songs, so good,
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: so sad. Yeah, that's one of my favorite things about
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: New Moon as an Edward Team Edward, you know, it
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: was hard for me back in the day to watch
• 18:11
  Speaker 6: this movie. So soundtrack I loved.
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: That had feels and it's still it's still popular today,
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: like a lot of the songs that we hear is
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: still popular today. Just saw a TikTok. I've been sending
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: Christina and Annie a lot of tiktoks about it, and
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: like it's them coming back together. The cast members coming
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: back to there, except for Kristen, Robert and Anna Kendrick,
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: mostly are like, nah, we're good because they're the more
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: famous of the like more successful of the branch. I think, nah,
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: y'all have fun, but they're coming together.
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: So that was New Moon, And because Christina you are
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: the other a ficionado, we of course need your take
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: on Eclipse or Robert Pattinson is back.
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: Yes, yes, Oh my gosh, okay, so bear with me.
• 19:13
  Speaker 6: I tried to reduce it as much as I can.
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: But okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna be yapping. Okay, all right, Yes,
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: marriage is on the table. It's a huge point. Opening
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: the movie, we see a vampire attack a human. We
• 19:30
  Speaker 6: don't know why, we don't know who it is, but
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: we see that he's being changed so he will be
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: a vampire. And then next jump to the Famous Meadow
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: where Edward is with Bella. They are talking about marriage.
• 19:46
  Speaker 6: He says it's a compromise. If they get married, he
• 19:49
  Speaker 6: will change her into a vampire. Okay, jump to we
• 19:54
  Speaker 6: see Bella's dad, Charlie, asking Bella to check in on Jacob,
• 19:57
  Speaker 6: who is not doing well. Per the last movie, clearly
• 20:01
  Speaker 6: he is not doing okay, and Edward does not like this.
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: He does not trust Jacob. And also we find out
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: that Alice sees something bad approaching, but it is not
• 20:11
  Speaker 6: revealed and they're being secretive about this towards Bella. They
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: do not want to scare Bella. Bella then visits her
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: mom in Florida with Edward, which I wish we could
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: have seen more of because Florida is so sunny and
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: Edward was there, but we do see a pretty cool
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: moment where Edward is inside while Bella and her mom
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: have a mother daughter moment. Her mom is worried about
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: her choices and whether or not they are her own.
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: Bella also receives a sentimental gift from the mom, and
• 20:41
  Speaker 6: she is realizing the weight of her choices in becoming
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: a vampire and how she won't be able to see
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: her anymore once she has changed. And now jump to
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: we see Victoria from the last movie. She is back
• 20:53
  Speaker 6: and she is running through the woods. Wolves and vampires
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: are chasing her, but there is a treaty line. They
• 20:59
  Speaker 6: are not allowed to cross that line. However, Emmett Cullen
• 21:03
  Speaker 6: jumps over the line and tussles with Paul, who is
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: a wolf. This is a big no no. The next
• 21:09
  Speaker 6: day in the high school parking lot, Jake shows up
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: and he threatens Edward sort of. He says that Emmett
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: crossed their line and that is not okay. Bella is
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: confused because she has no idea what's going on, Like
• 21:22
  Speaker 6: I said, and she had no idea that Victoria was back.
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: Bella is mad. She jumps on the bike and goes
• 21:29
  Speaker 6: on a ride with Jake. Next, we see the wolf
• 21:32
  Speaker 6: pack again. We meet a new woman named Leah. Leah
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: is Harry's daughter, the guy who died in the last
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: movie from a heart attack that was caused by Victoria,
• 21:43
  Speaker 6: but she lifted him in the air. He died from that, Lea,
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: it is not like Bella, Jacob explains Leah's situation. Turns
• 21:53
  Speaker 6: out Leah was in a relationship with another pack member,
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: but it had to end because that pack member imprinted
• 21:59
  Speaker 6: on a different woman. And this is where we learn
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: about imprinting. Bella asks Jake if he has imprinted, and
• 22:06
  Speaker 6: he says, you'd know if I did so it's left
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: unclear slash ambiguous on purpose. And then Jake also finds
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: out that Bella plans to become a vampire and that
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: upsets him a lot, and he says some hurtful stuff
• 22:19
  Speaker 6: to her. Cut to the guy from earlier, the guy
• 22:23
  Speaker 6: who was getting attacked by a vampire. His name is Riley.
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: He is now a newborn vampire and he is snooping
• 22:30
  Speaker 6: around Bella's house and he's getting her sent Shortly after,
• 22:35
  Speaker 6: Edward comes over and he smells that a vampire has
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: been there. He does not know why, and Alice cannot
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: confirm either, but it is troublesome. This causes the vampires
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: and wolves to talk and work together to protect Bella
• 22:51
  Speaker 6: taking shifts basically. Next, we see Bella attend a council
• 22:58
  Speaker 6: meeting with the wolves, which is a big deal because
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: they don't let outsiders in to learn about their history
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: or anything like that. Here she learns about the history
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: of their magical powers. We learn that their powers kick
• 23:11
  Speaker 6: in when there's vampires nearby. We also learn about long ago,
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: there is a tribe that was under attack by a
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: vampire who was seeking revenge for her partner that was
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: killed by one of the wolves. We learn about a
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: woman who cut herself so that the vampire attacking their
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: tribe would be distracted long enough to be defeated, and
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: I think this is important to remember foreshadowing. Next, we
• 23:37
  Speaker 6: see a bunch of newborn vampires in Seattle and it's
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: causing a statewide, area wide panic of serial killings disappearances
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: in the area and they're garnering way too much attention.
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: And the working theory at this point is that the
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: VULTUREA is behind it in order to get the Cullen
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: family killed. Besides Alice and Edward because they want them
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: to join them. Alice and Edward have very good powers,
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: the future telling and mind reading very powerful. That's just
• 24:07
  Speaker 6: the working theory. Next scene, we see Jake and Bella
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: hanging out. Jake is ah not taking no for an
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: answer when it comes to her love for him, and
• 24:16
  Speaker 6: he forces a kiss on her and she punches him
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: in the face, but war wolves are very strong, doesn't
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: even He doesn't even flinch or react, but she does
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: hurt her hand and this causes Edward to be super
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: angry at Jacob next time they meet up, but of
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: all people, Charlie breaks up their altercation all right. Cut
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: to the Cullens house. Carlyle, the doctor of the family,
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: is bandaging Bella and she says she heard it by
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: punching a werewolf. Emmett the brother, loves this and he
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: says basically, oh wait till you're a newborn, because she'll
• 24:53
  Speaker 6: be so much stronger, and this visibly triggers Rosalie, who
• 24:58
  Speaker 6: walks out of the room, and then cut to Bella
• 25:01
  Speaker 6: and Rosalie talking just to see why she was upset,
• 25:06
  Speaker 6: and we get to see Rosalie's backstory, which is very sad,
• 25:10
  Speaker 6: and we learn that she's resentful of her life as
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: a vampire, mostly because she wants that idealistic husband, family, etc.
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: And we see a flashback of her in her human
• 25:20
  Speaker 6: form long ago with her fiance, and then another scene
• 25:25
  Speaker 6: where she's walking in the street and her fiance is
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: drunk with his friends and he assaults her in front
• 25:31
  Speaker 6: of them and presumably is assaulted by all of them
• 25:35
  Speaker 6: and left for dead in the street, and this is
• 25:38
  Speaker 6: where Carlyle finds her and changes her in order to
• 25:41
  Speaker 6: save her life. That's sort of his whole thing. But
• 25:45
  Speaker 6: there is a cool scene where you get to see
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: Rosalie seek revenge and she kills all the men that
• 25:49
  Speaker 6: assaulted her, which was cool. And then she's also in
• 25:52
  Speaker 6: a wedding dress the night that she kills her fiance,
• 25:56
  Speaker 6: So I like that for her. But I think the
• 25:58
  Speaker 6: whole emphasis on this is that she does not want
• 26:02
  Speaker 6: Bella to be a vampire still, as you could tell
• 26:04
  Speaker 6: from the last movie, because she doesn't want to be
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: one either. She wants a normal life, and she wants
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: Bella to have a normal life. All right, back to
• 26:13
  Speaker 6: the newborn situation happening in Seattle, they are still being reckless. However,
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: it is confirmed that the VULTUREI are aware of this happening,
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: and although they're supposed to be stopping it, they are not.
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: They are allowing this to happen. All right, it's graduation
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: time now we could see Bella and the Cullins graduate.
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: Alice throws a huge party. As she does, the whole
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: school is there. Even Jake shows up with some fellow
• 26:40
  Speaker 6: wolf Pack members and he apologizes for forcing a kiss
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: on her. He also gives her bracelet with a wolf
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: charm on it, which is sweet. Shortly after, Alice has
• 26:50
  Speaker 6: a vision about these newborns and they're all taking turns
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: getting Bella sent from the blouse that Riley, the Newborn leader,
• 26:59
  Speaker 6: stole from her. So it turns out the Newborns are
• 27:02
  Speaker 6: coming to Forks, especially to find Bella. This causes the
• 27:07
  Speaker 6: Cullins and Wolves to have a brief meeting at the
• 27:09
  Speaker 6: party and they decide to team up to fight the
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: Newborn Army together and then presumably the next day, they
• 27:16
  Speaker 6: begin training for this battle with the Newborn Army and
• 27:19
  Speaker 6: Jasper Cullen, Edward's brother, is leading this training session, and
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: this is where we learned about Jasper's backstory. It turns
• 27:27
  Speaker 6: out he was a Confederate officer in the Civil War. However,
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: he was changed by a woman named Maria who manipulated
• 27:36
  Speaker 6: him to do her bidding. So basically he had to
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: construct a newborn army way back when when he was
• 27:44
  Speaker 6: first changed, and that is why he's so versed in
• 27:47
  Speaker 6: training for this upcoming newborn battle. After learning this, Bella
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: has a dream that reveals to her that Maria and
• 27:55
  Speaker 6: Jasper's story is very similar to Victoria and Riley's story.
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: So this proves that Victoria is behind this newborn army
• 28:05
  Speaker 6: and she is still very vengeful for the death of
• 28:07
  Speaker 6: her mate. So Bella convinces Edward to stay by her
• 28:11
  Speaker 6: side while she hides out during the newborn battle that's
• 28:14
  Speaker 6: coming up in a few days, as Alice has predicted,
• 28:18
  Speaker 6: and then cut to a brief Charlie Bella moment very fun.
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: Charlie tries to have the talk with her and she
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: hates it, and she also reveals that she's a virgin,
• 28:27
  Speaker 6: which obviously Dad Charlie approves of and loves. So yeah,
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: that newborn battle is approaching and Bella and Edward have
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: suddenly a night alone at the Collen house, Edward gives
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: her a bracelet for her other arm, clearly jealous of
• 28:41
  Speaker 6: Jack's present that's on her arm, the wolf pendant. And
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: then also there's a moment where Bella wants him to
• 28:47
  Speaker 6: take her virginity and Edward says no. Unsurprisingly, he's so
• 28:52
  Speaker 6: old school and also afraid of hurting her because he's
• 28:55
  Speaker 6: so strong. He wants marriage first, and he wants to
• 28:59
  Speaker 6: save her soul. He talks about how back in his
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: day he would have courted her very old school style,
• 29:06
  Speaker 6: but he does officially propose to her with a ring
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: and she says yes. And then brief cut to the
• 29:12
  Speaker 6: Newborn Army once again. Riley's there and he's being manipulated
• 29:17
  Speaker 6: by Victoria, just as Bella predicted. All right, it's the
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: day before the battle, the Newborn Battle. Jake has to
• 29:24
  Speaker 6: carry Bella to a tent where she'll be hiding. This
• 29:27
  Speaker 6: is in order to hide her scent. Her scent is
• 29:29
  Speaker 6: hidden with his own wolf stink. We also find out
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: that he's staying there for the night and Edward will
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: be there as well, So it's Edward, Jake, and Bella
• 29:40
  Speaker 6: all staying in this tent the night before the battle
• 29:43
  Speaker 6: and it's freezing, and Edward cannot help her because you know,
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: vampires are cold skinned, So reluctantly, Edward allows Jake to
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: cuddle her to keep her warm, because wolves have warm bodies.
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: Cut to an Edward and Jake moment. Huge moment in
• 29:58
  Speaker 6: the tent be sleep. We think Jake and Edward are
• 30:03
  Speaker 6: talking about Bella. Jake is insisting that Bella loves him
• 30:07
  Speaker 6: and pleading for Edward not to change her. He says
• 30:12
  Speaker 6: something along the lines of you have to consider that
• 30:14
  Speaker 6: I might be better for her than you are, and
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: I think Edward believes that too. But Edward is nice
• 30:21
  Speaker 6: to Jake though, and he admits that he would like
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: him if he wasn't trying so much to get with Bella.
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: In this moment, to me was important because they're just
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: showing each other's humility and empathy, which you don't really
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: see before. They've hated each other so much up until
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: this moment, and there's just a good moment between them.
• 30:40
  Speaker 6: I think Bella was listening to That's why I don't
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: think she was asleep. I think she was kind of
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: like listening to them talk. Okay, it's the next night,
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: it's the day of the battle. Before he leaves a fight,
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: Jake finds out that Edward and Bella are getting married,
• 30:55
  Speaker 6: and this makes him very upset. And also Edward purposefully
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: let him find that out, and Bella's super upset about
• 31:02
  Speaker 6: it too, and she's worried that this will affect his
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: performance in the Newborn battle. And then we have a
• 31:07
  Speaker 6: huge Bella and Jake moment. Finally, Bella gives permission for
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: Jake to kiss her onlike before he forced it on her.
• 31:17
  Speaker 6: And for me, I feel like this's just to make
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: him feel better about the situation and to not let
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: him not perform as as bad as he maybe would
• 31:25
  Speaker 6: have otherwise. But she does love him, it's obvious, and
• 31:29
  Speaker 6: she kisses him back as she's into it, and it's
• 31:32
  Speaker 6: a moment. And Edward knew about it the whole time
• 31:34
  Speaker 6: because he could read his thoughts and he didn't really care,
• 31:37
  Speaker 6: and Bella does after reassure him that Bella loves Edward Moore.
• 31:42
  Speaker 6: So Team Edward. Okay, huge battle scene happening. Wolves and
• 31:49
  Speaker 6: vampires are working together, which is a big deal, and
• 31:53
  Speaker 6: they're killing this Newborn army very easily. Looking The head
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: shattering is awesome to me. We also see a young
• 32:01
  Speaker 6: newborn girl part of the army, but she's not participating
• 32:04
  Speaker 6: and she's watching from the sidelines, kind of scared. And
• 32:08
  Speaker 6: we see her be approached by Carlyle and esme. You know, Carlyle,
• 32:13
  Speaker 6: he empathizes with people. He doesn't, you know. He wants
• 32:15
  Speaker 6: to do what's good, all right. Cut to the tent again,
• 32:19
  Speaker 6: where Bella and Edward are still hiding. Turns out Riley
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: and Victoria have picked up on Edward's scent and they
• 32:26
  Speaker 6: have located them. Edward tries to convince Riley that Victoria
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: is manipulating him for her own revenge arc, but Riley
• 32:35
  Speaker 6: does not care. However, a wolf Seth was hanging around
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: the tent area and attacks Riley, who was about to
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: lunge for Edward slash Bella. However, Victoria does try to
• 32:47
  Speaker 6: run away, and Edward beckons her to stay and fight.
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: This is her chance to get her revenge. Now, cue
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: the big Victoria and Edward fight what we've all been
• 32:56
  Speaker 6: waiting for. There comes a moment where things aren't looking
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: good for Harvard. Bella takes note from her history lesson
• 33:03
  Speaker 6: with the council meeting. She cuts herself like that woman
• 33:07
  Speaker 6: in the tribe in the beginning of the movie to
• 33:10
  Speaker 6: distract the vampires because of her blood is so tasty.
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: This lets Edward get the upper hand and Riley is
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: also taken down by the wolf finally, and Victoria obviously
• 33:23
  Speaker 6: doesn't care because Victoria never cared about Riley. And then
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: finally Edward b heads Victoria, which was cool. After Edward
• 33:34
  Speaker 6: and Bella finally leave the hideout and they go to
• 33:38
  Speaker 6: the Newborn battle area because we find out that Alice
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: saw the vulture approaching. So they get there and they
• 33:46
  Speaker 6: witness a loose newborn that was still around and it
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: attacks Leah, the one female wolf from earlier that we met,
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: which Jacob jumps in to help with. They're both in
• 33:57
  Speaker 6: wolf form at this moment, and Jacob is badly, badly
• 34:01
  Speaker 6: injured by this newborn and he's rushed out of there
• 34:04
  Speaker 6: before the Vulturi arrive. It is important that the Vulturi
• 34:08
  Speaker 6: does not know about the pact with the Wolves is
• 34:11
  Speaker 6: their enemies. So the Newborn battle is over now, no
• 34:16
  Speaker 6: more newborns at least the battle. So the Vulturi arrive
• 34:21
  Speaker 6: as Alice predicted, and they act like they had nothing
• 34:25
  Speaker 6: to do with this battle. They are impressed by the
• 34:28
  Speaker 6: Cullens uh defetiant before they could get to it, even
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: though they weren't planning to help anyways, and the Vulturi
• 34:35
  Speaker 6: do notice the newborn girl who I talked about earlier
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: who was on the sidelines and Jane. Jane Vulturi member
• 34:43
  Speaker 6: uses her power to cause pain to her and Carlisle
• 34:47
  Speaker 6: pleads to spare her. However, Vulturi style to assert their
• 34:52
  Speaker 6: dominance and to be needlessly violent, they kill the newborn girl.
• 34:58
  Speaker 6: And they also asked why Bella isn't a vampire yet
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: because the last movie they said she would be, But
• 35:05
  Speaker 6: Bella says a date is set and the Fulchery leave
• 35:09
  Speaker 6: that night. At Wolf headquarters, Bella visits Jake, who is
• 35:14
  Speaker 6: streaming in pain while Carlisle does doctor stuff on him.
• 35:19
  Speaker 6: Jake comes to terms with Bella not choosing him Finally, however,
• 35:26
  Speaker 6: Bella does admit that she does truly love him, and
• 35:30
  Speaker 6: Jake says some good lines in this. He says, it
• 35:32
  Speaker 6: would be as easy as breathing with me, and I'll
• 35:35
  Speaker 6: always be waiting, and he does say that he'd maybe
• 35:39
  Speaker 6: still wait for her even if she was a vampire,
• 35:42
  Speaker 6: which is a huge deal. Jake loves her still. Now,
• 35:46
  Speaker 6: at the end of the movie, we're in the Famous
• 35:48
  Speaker 6: Meadow once again. Bella and Edward are together having a
• 35:52
  Speaker 6: loving moment. They're talking about the date for the wedding
• 35:55
  Speaker 6: and how Alice will plan everything, and in this moment,
• 35:59
  Speaker 6: Bella has decided that this choice she's making for herself
• 36:05
  Speaker 6: and it's not all about Edward, and this is her
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: come to terms moment where she truly feels like this
• 36:11
  Speaker 6: is her destiny to be a vampire, and she says
• 36:15
  Speaker 6: something along the lines of this wasn't a choice between
• 36:19
  Speaker 6: you and Jacob. It was a choice between who I
• 36:21
  Speaker 6: should be and who I am. And Edward loves this
• 36:25
  Speaker 6: answer and he's happy it's not all about him, obviously,
• 36:29
  Speaker 6: because he has so much guilt over her soul. And
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: then there's a cute ending where she's like, we have
• 36:35
  Speaker 6: something very hard to do now, and that's to tell
• 36:40
  Speaker 6: Charlie that they're getting married, and he puts the ring
• 36:43
  Speaker 6: on her finger, and that's the end.
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: Nicely done. Do you want to put in here though,
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: that we did have a bedroom scene and it's as
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: Mormon as you can guess in this level in which
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: I get it, I get it trying. She's like, I
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: feel like I'm trying to take away a virtue. She's
• 37:03
  Speaker 5: denied because her thought her her negotiation was okay, we
• 37:09
  Speaker 5: can get married, but I want to have sex.
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: While that was important to her, Yes, that's a good
• 37:13
  Speaker 6: point to bring up. She wants to have human sex
• 37:17
  Speaker 6: and he's afraid of hurting her.
• 37:19
  Speaker 5: Yes, because he's so strong most humanness. She said, I
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: want to do it like whatever, and he was like,
• 37:25
  Speaker 5: not right now, I'll keep your clothes off. Stop trying
• 37:27
  Speaker 5: to take off your clothes. Such a lie, and because
• 37:30
  Speaker 5: that will come up as a thing for breaking dawn
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: and you're welcome the.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: Big and true blood. We're like that one vampire didn't
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: have sex. She's like a virgin. So every time she
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: had sex.
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, as a vampire, it hurt because it would heal.
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah every time.
• 37:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's not how this marks y'all every time. But
• 37:54
  Speaker 5: like they break the hymen is the idea.
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: Right right right, that's not quite that was the thing.
• 38:00
  Speaker 5: But yeah, so here with this as where like vampires
• 38:02
  Speaker 5: are specifically sexualized in most renditions, here we they are not.
• 38:09
  Speaker 5: He we have the wholesome and honestly, when you break down,
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: I think we've did this with again Twilight when we
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: talk about Twilight his controlling behavior, and we know it's
• 38:21
  Speaker 5: all to protect her, but you're like, bro, you're telling
• 38:23
  Speaker 5: her you can't go hang out with people. You won't
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: you you disabled her car so she could not go
• 38:29
  Speaker 5: see somebody, like you are right there saying like, oh,
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: we're going to Florida and then like manipulating her to
• 38:35
  Speaker 5: tell her father that you're doing this, or like, in reality,
• 38:38
  Speaker 5: this is not a good relationship, y'all. But we'll come
• 38:42
  Speaker 5: back to that. I did want to try something because
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: I think it's it's something that we should do. And
• 38:49
  Speaker 5: I've been going back and forth listeners because it's so cheesy,
• 38:53
  Speaker 5: but you know how we love doing a good rendition
• 38:57
  Speaker 5: or a read through, especially of class like this. So
• 39:01
  Speaker 5: I thought we would do that with both New Moon
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: and eclips And I took out a few of the
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: dialogues that I had all three of the main characters, Jacob, Edward,
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: and Bella with some of the fun fun bits. But
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: because I was like, I don't want to take this
• 39:18
  Speaker 5: away from Christina because Christina, really she has been a loyal,
• 39:23
  Speaker 5: loyal fan in this, so I think you need to
• 39:26
  Speaker 5: assign who plays what because I was gonna at first
• 39:29
  Speaker 5: I had it and I was like, no, no, no,
• 39:31
  Speaker 5: because like I don't know, Christina, if you want to
• 39:33
  Speaker 5: be Bella or if you want to be Edward like
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: in the in the talk like not in real life.
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: I know you're not to that level, but like like
• 39:40
  Speaker 5: playing these characters. Because I'm not gonna lie. Here's a real, honest,
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: embarrassing confession. I would actually read these books out loud
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: sometimes as the characters to see if I could do
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: the Lions justice because I saw I'd it's so great
• 39:54
  Speaker 5: that I'm like, I want to see if I can
• 39:55
  Speaker 5: do this and I could not.
• 39:57
  Speaker 6: Just an FYI, no, same embarrassing admission for me is
• 40:01
  Speaker 6: that me and my cousins when the first Twilight came out,
• 40:05
  Speaker 6: we would re enact the scene in the woods where
• 40:07
  Speaker 6: she's like where he's like, I'm a killer or whatever,
• 40:11
  Speaker 6: and we filmed it on some but so bad. But
• 40:17
  Speaker 6: for this I will be Edward.
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: You would be Edward. Okay, well, you need to assign
• 40:23
  Speaker 5: the rest, like who am I and who are they?
• 40:25
  Speaker 6: Samantha you are Jacob and Annie is Bella. This makes
• 40:30
  Speaker 6: the most.
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: Sense, love it. I think it does. Actually, that's exactly
• 40:33
  Speaker 5: how I had cast it in originally. Did I tell
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: you this? Why? Yes, this was my end. I was like,
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: this is who was? But then I was like, I
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: don't want to take that away from Christina because maybe
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: she wants to be Bella in this line. So this
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: is the scene in which Edward comes back from New
• 40:51
  Speaker 5: Moon with from the vultuaries and they run into Jacob. Okay,
• 40:55
  Speaker 5: so right scene. Okay, you stay the hell out of
• 40:59
  Speaker 5: my head.
• 41:00
  Speaker 6: Jake up. I know you have something to say to me,
• 41:02
  Speaker 6: but I'd like to say something to you, if that's
• 41:05
  Speaker 6: all right. Thank you, Thank you for keeping Bella alive
• 41:10
  Speaker 6: when I didn't.
• 41:11
  Speaker 5: No, you didn't, and it wasn't for your benefit.
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: Trust me.
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: I'm still grateful. But I'm here now. I'm not leaving
• 41:18
  Speaker 6: her side until she orders me away.
• 41:21
  Speaker 5: Oh we'll see, And it's my turn to talk. I'm
• 41:24
  Speaker 5: here to remind you of a key point in the treaty.
• 41:26
  Speaker 6: I haven't forgotten what key point.
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: If any of them bites a human, the truth is over.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: But if I choose it has nothing to do with you.
• 41:34
  Speaker 7: No, I won't let you. You're not going to be
• 41:36
  Speaker 7: one of them. Bella, it's not up to you. You
• 41:39
  Speaker 7: know what will do to you. I won't have a choice, Bella,
• 41:43
  Speaker 7: come please, no, is he going.
• 41:46
  Speaker 6: To hurt me? Read his mind, assures her.
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: Insane the awards coming.
• 41:53
  Speaker 5: And we're still gonna at this yet I think we
• 41:57
  Speaker 5: all did it. And with that, do you want to
• 42:02
  Speaker 5: stick with this because we're gonna do a little bit
• 42:03
  Speaker 5: of eclipse after they discovered that some other vampire had
• 42:08
  Speaker 5: been in Bella's house. And by the way, there's a
• 42:11
  Speaker 5: scene in which Riley goes over to Charlie to sniff,
• 42:14
  Speaker 5: and that is actually a part of the book. Like
• 42:16
  Speaker 5: there's this whole like moment of like, you know, she's
• 42:19
  Speaker 5: freaking out because she's thinking he was in danger and
• 42:21
  Speaker 5: he was technically Charlie, good old child Charlie.
• 42:24
  Speaker 6: My mom loved Charlie.
• 42:27
  Speaker 5: As you said, everybody, everybody loved Charlie. He was the
• 42:31
  Speaker 5: him and I want to say some of the wolf
• 42:33
  Speaker 5: Pack and Emmett were the like comedic right in this
• 42:41
  Speaker 5: in this scene. So are we keeping the same characters? Yeah, Christina, Okay,
• 42:45
  Speaker 5: so here we go, Here we go. See whoever it
• 42:50
  Speaker 5: was he left his think behind. It will be hard
• 42:51
  Speaker 5: to miss when we cross it again. We'll handle it
• 42:53
  Speaker 5: from here.
• 42:54
  Speaker 6: We don't need you to handle anything for anyone.
• 42:58
  Speaker 5: I could care less what you need.
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: Okay, great, and we'll all work together. Come on, we've
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: all got the same goals here, right to catch the
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: bad vampires.
• 43:08
  Speaker 5: Like there's a difference.
• 43:09
  Speaker 6: All right, we're done here.
• 43:11
  Speaker 5: No, you're done here.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: Stop, let go. I'm tired of this. From now on,
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: I'm Switzerland.
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: I know you guys don't like each other, but we've
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: got bigger problems, lots of them, and this is just
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: one temporary solution if you'd be willing to try.
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: My favorite is the Switzerland line, and't it just out's
• 43:31
  Speaker 5: so funny?
• 43:32
  Speaker 6: And I think people were team Switzerland, like it was
• 43:35
  Speaker 6: Team Edward, team Jacob, Team Switzerland. I forgot about Team Switzerland.
• 43:41
  Speaker 5: I forgot because it's like wait what wait what? Oh y'all,
• 43:46
  Speaker 5: thank you for going down this embarrassing road with us. Listeners,
• 43:50
  Speaker 5: Please feel free to never listen to that again because
• 43:52
  Speaker 5: you probably have secondhand embarrassment. This movie also had. Again,
• 43:58
  Speaker 5: we talked about the controversies, and I didn't. We didn't
• 44:00
  Speaker 5: talk about the fact that they brought in some really
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: like a less celebrities in this one, including uh, Dakota
• 44:05
  Speaker 5: Fanning who actually was in talks at that point of
• 44:08
  Speaker 5: her and Christen Stewart doing Cherrybaum, which was the movie
• 44:11
  Speaker 5: based on the Runways. Uh so the a lot of things.
• 44:14
  Speaker 5: People were really excited because you also had that, and
• 44:17
  Speaker 5: then you had what's his name from the Vultur.
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: I thought that was it.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: Okay, So I've never seen these obviously, And by the way, listeners,
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: if you're listening to this and you're like me, please
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: go back and listen to the first one. Yeah, because
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: you might be really killed. Yes, but this was this
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: meme that I've seen for years. I've never known where
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: it came from. Of the voltire and it's like, oh,
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: that's or can.
• 44:41
  Speaker 6: I say something? I dressed as one of them for
• 44:43
  Speaker 6: Halloween one year. I had read contacts and everything, and.
• 44:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Michael Sheen coming in y as this like he
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: again Ji. Of course he also had come from Underworld, yeah,
• 44:58
  Speaker 5: where he was a vampire. Right, No, he was a
• 45:00
  Speaker 5: was he a vampire or was he a were wolf?
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: He was a.
• 45:02
  Speaker 5: Werewolf where he met his then wife. But like all
• 45:07
  Speaker 5: these things, we also had Jamie Campbell Bauer who he's
• 45:10
  Speaker 5: such a minor character as one of the Vultoi, the
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: main three, but he's actually also a minor character from
• 45:16
  Speaker 5: Harry Potter paying in an older Wizard that you only
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: see in a flashback. But everybody was so excited for
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: this crossover that was happening. They thought, like this is
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: this is so good, And each and every one of
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: these movies were at least like making I think New
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: Moon was at number nine, the best selling movie at
• 45:35
  Speaker 5: number nine, like the most money of two thousand and
• 45:37
  Speaker 5: nine until the Harry Potter franchise came out and then
• 45:40
  Speaker 5: that beat that one out, and then we had the
• 45:43
  Speaker 5: same thing happened with Eclipse, which was like the seventh
• 45:46
  Speaker 5: highest gross grossing movie, and then Harry Potter movie came
• 45:50
  Speaker 5: out and it knocked it out as well. But yeah,
• 45:54
  Speaker 5: so we had all these like bigger actors being a
• 45:56
  Speaker 5: part of these later franchises that everybody was freaking out
• 45:59
  Speaker 5: about with the most minor roles until later, like Michael
• 46:04
  Speaker 5: Sheen does play bigger part, so does the Code of Fanning.
• 46:06
  Speaker 5: Dakota Fanning really making like her character so menacing even
• 46:12
  Speaker 5: though she's the most adorable thing in the whole wide world. Essentially,
• 46:16
  Speaker 5: But yeah, you had a lot of that and then also, yes,
• 46:20
  Speaker 5: the Bryce Dallas Howard coming in taking it all over
• 46:25
  Speaker 5: the character of Victoria from the original Victoria, and like
• 46:29
  Speaker 5: the publicity would like, it was pretty ugly because they're like, oh,
• 46:32
  Speaker 5: she has scheduling conflict, and then it turned out she's like, what, No,
• 46:35
  Speaker 5: I didn't remember this, what's happening? Did I get recast?
• 46:39
  Speaker 5: Like she literally found out that way. And then it
• 46:42
  Speaker 5: turned out that Bryce Dallas Howard had been originally asked
• 46:46
  Speaker 5: to play Victoria from Jump, but she turned it down
• 46:49
  Speaker 5: and then came back, So it was like whoa drama?
• 46:54
  Speaker 5: So yeah, so many good things, y'all. Is fantastic. Thank
• 46:58
  Speaker 5: you for indulging me, Christina. You did an amazing job
• 47:01
  Speaker 5: with that one. We do want to talk about some
• 47:13
  Speaker 5: of the themes and tropes within this movie, because that's
• 47:16
  Speaker 5: what we do for these movies. Obviously, we have the
• 47:19
  Speaker 5: trope of the love triangle, and it's always the werewolf
• 47:21
  Speaker 5: in a vampire. Always.
• 47:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's the perfect duo, is it?
• 47:26
  Speaker 5: Why do they always come together?
• 47:27
  Speaker 6: There are enemies? There's something there about that human vampire.
• 47:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel like they're because like maybe it's just
• 47:37
  Speaker 5: the one other one. Maybe it's because I've watched that
• 47:39
  Speaker 5: in True Blood and they're always like opposing each other.
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 47:44
  Speaker 5: But we have the love triangle of course, with her
• 47:46
  Speaker 5: loving both of them. But you have the main lead,
• 47:49
  Speaker 5: which is gonna always be Robert Pattinson for this, and
• 47:53
  Speaker 5: of course that whole story of them having the ultimate
• 47:57
  Speaker 5: chemistry and has kind of fallen apart since then that
• 48:03
  Speaker 5: you have all of that, and then you have people
• 48:06
  Speaker 5: backing home different people, Oh.
• 48:08
  Speaker 6: My gosh, yes, the teams. I would get in fights
• 48:12
  Speaker 6: with people as a teenager about what team you're on.
• 48:16
  Speaker 6: And also just like Edward and Jacob sort of, like
• 48:21
  Speaker 6: I don't know, doing things to make each other jealous.
• 48:23
  Speaker 6: Like there's several moments of that throughout both movies, like
• 48:27
  Speaker 6: Edward tissing her in front of him super passionately on purpose,
• 48:31
  Speaker 6: but also Jacob being shirtless and hot and hugging her,
• 48:35
  Speaker 6: and the cuddling scene in the tent and the thoughts
• 48:38
  Speaker 6: he was having that he knew Edward could read, and
• 48:41
  Speaker 6: then the tissing he did of her twice and the
• 48:44
  Speaker 6: bracelet thing, you know, she had one arm had a
• 48:48
  Speaker 6: wolf on it and the other had whatever diamond thing
• 48:51
  Speaker 6: that Edward got.
• 48:52
  Speaker 5: Her, the giant diamond. Yeah, but she's like, is this
• 48:55
  Speaker 5: the pretty stone still a favorite? But it's supposed to
• 48:59
  Speaker 5: represent like the ruggedness versus like the very like shiny,
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: unattainable beautiful thing, So yes, we had that, and again
• 49:08
  Speaker 5: the okay, this is just a small side thing, and
• 49:11
  Speaker 5: I just I have to have so many questions. But
• 49:14
  Speaker 5: like with the werewolf versus vampire, the territories and the
• 49:18
  Speaker 5: fact that the werewolves were all like Native Indigenous people
• 49:21
  Speaker 5: who were protecting their territory as they should. But Mom,
• 49:25
  Speaker 5: like this was a real racist the fact that, like
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: the Native Indigenous people are keep being called dogs and
• 49:30
  Speaker 5: smelly in a hairy I'm like, can you calm down?
• 49:33
  Speaker 5: Like I guet you also wants to hate each other.
• 49:35
  Speaker 5: But y'all start to get real, like this could good.
• 49:37
  Speaker 6: I mean I thought about that with the scene where
• 49:39
  Speaker 6: they did like the history lesson of the werewolf and
• 49:43
  Speaker 6: basically they were colonized by vampires, Like.
• 49:46
  Speaker 5: Right, that's what it.
• 49:48
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we do absolutely, like the vampires are clearly like
• 49:51
  Speaker 6: white people, So yeah.
• 49:55
  Speaker 5: Who could came taking over their land and their children
• 49:58
  Speaker 5: and killing everybody? That was just a side note that
• 50:01
  Speaker 5: I'm like, I think there's been a little bit of
• 50:03
  Speaker 5: controversy in the way that Stephanie Meyers portrayed the characters
• 50:09
  Speaker 5: and making sure they are very faulllessly white and like
• 50:11
  Speaker 5: like that was the beauty standard. So everybody was like, yeah,
• 50:15
  Speaker 5: so pale, you need a backtrack, you need to backtrack
• 50:17
  Speaker 5: all that, and then to try and have Laurent, who
• 50:20
  Speaker 5: is the only at this point a person of color
• 50:24
  Speaker 5: as a vampire because we'll see more. And by the way,
• 50:27
  Speaker 5: it's also a little bit shady, like when it come
• 50:30
  Speaker 5: to the representation, you're like, wait, what's happening. But anyway,
• 50:32
  Speaker 5: but like try to like, you know, this is what
• 50:35
  Speaker 5: this looks like and still making him look almost caricaturish
• 50:39
  Speaker 5: as a person of color. You're like, ooh, way again,
• 50:42
  Speaker 5: that could have been more of the movie decisions rather
• 50:45
  Speaker 5: than the book, but she seemed to be okay with it.
• 50:48
  Speaker 5: Another theme is that whole commitment marriage relationships and about
• 50:52
  Speaker 5: virginity and souls, like that whole thing was like wow.
• 50:57
  Speaker 6: Like religious undertoned for sure. I Mean, virginity is so
• 51:02
  Speaker 6: important to him, and yeah, he just cannot possibly break
• 51:08
  Speaker 6: that one rule, you know.
• 51:11
  Speaker 5: That's gonna say her soul. Yeah, let's protective virginity if
• 51:16
  Speaker 5: nothing else that the murder not.
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: So much, nothing else.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: But he's like one hundred years old.
• 51:23
  Speaker 6: He's so old school. He wanted to ask Charlie for
• 51:26
  Speaker 6: her mission. He would have done it different if it
• 51:29
  Speaker 6: was nineteen oh one, you know.
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: The iced tea.
• 51:33
  Speaker 5: I was like, I don't think he was southern was
• 51:36
  Speaker 5: but like the it did make me laugh at all
• 51:40
  Speaker 5: of this level, like who the main character was and
• 51:43
  Speaker 5: why he was so idealized of course, which is why
• 51:45
  Speaker 5: translated into fifty shades of gray, the dominant, controlling, protective, uh,
• 51:51
  Speaker 5: saving of her virtue, all these things like very like
• 51:55
  Speaker 5: male patriarchy, religiously male patriarchy. That you were like, you
• 52:01
  Speaker 5: have an idea of what you think is the standard
• 52:05
  Speaker 5: and the again, like if you looked at what he did,
• 52:08
  Speaker 5: like if you wrote down the things he did and
• 52:10
  Speaker 5: the way he acted, you'd be like, yeah, this is
• 52:12
  Speaker 5: not helped me. This is very toxic. Is Jacob any better?
• 52:16
  Speaker 5: Because all he is is like anger, a ball of
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: anger and constantly blowing up, but then coming back with
• 52:21
  Speaker 5: that I'm sorry. It's like it's constantly blowing up I'm
• 52:24
  Speaker 5: sorry blowing up upside, I'm like, none of these things
• 52:26
  Speaker 5: are great for men.
• 52:27
  Speaker 6: Yes, just so we know. I know. I was thinking
• 52:29
  Speaker 6: a lot about if you remember Emily, one of the
• 52:33
  Speaker 6: wolf pack's wives, Yes, she has a scar on her face. Yes,
• 52:38
  Speaker 6: supposed to lose from like an accident from a fight though, regardless,
• 52:43
  Speaker 6: But it's kind of just like, oh, this thing happened
• 52:46
  Speaker 6: to her. She got scarred horrifically by her husband. So
• 52:51
  Speaker 6: that's interesting. So like either party has their faults and
• 52:55
  Speaker 6: when it comes to how they treat women they love.
• 52:59
  Speaker 5: Right, and also how little they trust them.
• 53:02
  Speaker 6: Yeah, oh yeah, yeah.
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: I think it's really interesting that essentially you have like
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: Edward the vampire, who's.
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: The dangerous he's so attracted to her, he's a smell,
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: he'll lose control. And then you have the werewolf and
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: the danger is he's so protective it's gonna get angry.
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: But it's all like her causes these things right in
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: men that.
• 53:28
  Speaker 3: We see all the time.
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: I thought that was really interesting because it's kind of
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: like too of like being either you're blamed for being
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: like oh you were tanked up, oh no, or oh wow,
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: you did you said something he didn't like and he
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: got mad.
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, exactly.
• 53:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I think that's like interestingly romanticized, and that's a
• 53:49
  Speaker 5: conversation about Yeah, and I think more and more like
• 53:52
  Speaker 5: as we are enjoying all these things, and again I
• 53:55
  Speaker 5: liked it a lot, and then you start backing tracking.
• 53:59
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's also like I felt bad for Bella, but
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: I was like, girl, you gotta you're gonna kill yourself
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: just it hurts. I know it hurts, but we've got
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: to do something.
• 54:21
  Speaker 6: You did meet there so bad.
• 54:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 54:26
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 54:26
  Speaker 5: Another theme in Trope is, of course the revenge aspect.
• 54:30
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 54:31
  Speaker 5: We had Victoria coming in doing everything and then like
• 54:34
  Speaker 5: having to manipulate other underlings to do get her revenge.
• 54:40
  Speaker 6: And it's just like the Jasper story, same type of thing,
• 54:45
  Speaker 6: I think. But yeah, and the Wolf Floor had revenge
• 54:49
  Speaker 6: in their plot as well, that's why, which is why
• 54:52
  Speaker 6: they don't trust. Yeah, they got attacked. And the Rosalie
• 54:57
  Speaker 6: story had revenge in it too, which I loved, you know,
• 55:01
  Speaker 6: her getting revenge all the men that left her for dead, yes.
• 55:07
  Speaker 5: Who murdered her essentially.
• 55:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 55:09
  Speaker 5: And then we've course had the power aspect with who
• 55:12
  Speaker 5: is more powerful between the walls and the like I
• 55:15
  Speaker 5: can run faster, I can do this, I can get you,
• 55:17
  Speaker 5: I can the back, very macho competition.
• 55:21
  Speaker 6: I do like the the power that they show for
• 55:24
  Speaker 6: for women, for like Maria and Jasper. Maria that the
• 55:29
  Speaker 6: person who changed Jasper and his lore she had control
• 55:33
  Speaker 6: over him. And Victoria and Riley they mirror each other.
• 55:36
  Speaker 6: Victoria had so much power over Riley, and then Jane,
• 55:40
  Speaker 6: the young Jane Dakota Fanning. She had so much power
• 55:44
  Speaker 6: in the Vulture and everybody was obviously intimidated by her.
• 55:47
  Speaker 6: So I do like that they gave, like some women,
• 55:50
  Speaker 6: a bunch of power.
• 55:52
  Speaker 5: While unfortunately the Vultori heads are all three men. Yeah,
• 55:57
  Speaker 5: very of course we replaced the men. One has monotonum
• 56:02
  Speaker 5: wants to die, the other one who does could care
• 56:04
  Speaker 5: less in the mid one who was really too excited
• 56:06
  Speaker 5: Michael Sheen, You're too excited, bro.
• 56:07
  Speaker 6: I love the younger the younger man who has like
• 56:10
  Speaker 6: a Justin Bieber haircut, Like that's the hair you're having.
• 56:14
  Speaker 5: In Italy, right, hey?
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: Trends vampires, Christina, Yeah.
• 56:23
  Speaker 5: They all have the drums. Of course, we have an
• 56:27
  Speaker 5: introduction of Vulture and the makeup of what's coming. Yes,
• 56:32
  Speaker 5: and Jane and her leadership and her cruelty. As we
• 56:37
  Speaker 5: saw the young new vampire Brie, which was also I
• 56:40
  Speaker 5: don't know, Christine, did you see I don't know. Maybe
• 56:42
  Speaker 5: I just got some real like getting excited for the
• 56:45
  Speaker 5: movies that I would look him up. But Brie when
• 56:47
  Speaker 5: she was cast, everybody was super excited and built her up,
• 56:50
  Speaker 5: and even though those who had read the book knew
• 56:52
  Speaker 5: what was coming, was hoping she would have more scenes
• 56:55
  Speaker 5: and she didn't, poor thing, but everybody was really excited.
• 57:00
  Speaker 5: She was kind because she looks so cute. There's no reason,
• 57:04
  Speaker 5: no reason that was it. I think she was a
• 57:07
  Speaker 5: Disney star at one point or something, right, So yeah,
• 57:10
  Speaker 5: and people were really excited to see what she would
• 57:12
  Speaker 5: do with a role, and then again with the same
• 57:15
  Speaker 5: character who played Leah.
• 57:17
  Speaker 6: Yeah. I wish Leah got more time too. I don't remember.
• 57:20
  Speaker 6: She may be more in the next.
• 57:22
  Speaker 5: She is she is a little bit more of the next.
• 57:26
  Speaker 5: But like her character, everybody was really really excited about
• 57:29
  Speaker 5: because yeah, there wasn't many she was the only female
• 57:33
  Speaker 5: woman wolf that was coming in, and of course they
• 57:37
  Speaker 5: had to make her look really bitter.
• 57:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, she hated Bella. I guess you know she.
• 57:42
  Speaker 5: Hated Bella, she hated all werewolves because if it wasn't
• 57:46
  Speaker 5: for the vampires, werewolves did not exist. If were wolves
• 57:49
  Speaker 5: did not exist, they would not imprint, and if they
• 57:51
  Speaker 5: did not imprint, she would be marrying Sam, who she
• 57:54
  Speaker 5: was still very much in love with. That was that
• 57:57
  Speaker 5: whole level. So you kind of understood this for her.
• 58:01
  Speaker 5: And it was Julia Jones, who is actually I've seen
• 58:04
  Speaker 5: her in several things recently with taking on a lot
• 58:07
  Speaker 5: of Native Indigenous roles, which is awesome love to see.
• 58:10
  Speaker 5: I think she may have been on the uh the
• 58:12
  Speaker 5: newest true Detective, but yeah, so I could be wrong,
• 58:16
  Speaker 5: but Julia Jones actually was bigger. Oh she was actually
• 58:19
  Speaker 5: in Mandalorian. She was a Mendalorian. I believe. I remember
• 58:24
  Speaker 5: being really excited, like she looks super familiar. I believe
• 58:27
  Speaker 5: that's what she was in. People can tell me I'm wrong,
• 58:30
  Speaker 5: but she was a Native Indigenous person coming in, coming
• 58:32
  Speaker 5: in pretty strong, and everybody was really excited and hoping
• 58:36
  Speaker 5: to see her in more roles. But yeah, like the betrayal,
• 58:49
  Speaker 5: not glowing for women in these movies. Again, they get
• 58:54
  Speaker 5: a little better. We do see a little more with
• 58:58
  Speaker 5: Bella as the time come and hard decision making and
• 59:01
  Speaker 5: taking on some strengths. Oh, y'all, we also to end
• 59:06
  Speaker 5: this all because we do. I think we're wrapping it up.
• 59:08
  Speaker 5: I think Christina, you're doing an amazing job. I'm so
• 59:11
  Speaker 5: excited that you're here. Did you you sent us a quiz,
• 59:14
  Speaker 5: a BuzzFeed quiz?
• 59:15
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 59:15
  Speaker 5: About what characters?
• 59:17
  Speaker 6: We were?
• 59:17
  Speaker 4: All right?
• 59:18
  Speaker 5: Did Annie?
• 59:19
  Speaker 4: Did you take this quiz?
• 59:20
  Speaker 5: You're ready for this? All right, So I'm gonna go
• 59:22
  Speaker 5: ahead tell y'all my result, which, by the way, y'all,
• 59:25
  Speaker 5: if you get a chance to find this BuzzFeed quiz, uh,
• 59:28
  Speaker 5: that's titled which top Twilight character are you?
• 59:34
  Speaker 6: Because the questions are ridiculous, pretty obvious.
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: Sometime I'm like, if you say you want to drink blood,
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: obviously you're trying.
• 59:43
  Speaker 5: Also, maybe we should have your own registry human delicious.
• 59:47
  Speaker 5: That's that was one of the answers. But yes, I
• 59:50
  Speaker 5: came up to be Charlie Swan. That's all right, right,
• 59:55
  Speaker 5: I'm the cool dude. Just keep being your adorable olive
• 59:58
  Speaker 5: yourself also your daughters, now'll never Mind'm not gonna tell
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 5: you that part. And you're, yeah, you don't even know
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 5: that I can't tell you that like giving away to
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 5: any to plot.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 6: I need to add that during my obsession with Twilight,
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 6: my mom was very also into it too, and she
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 6: would attend all the movie premieres with us. I think
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 6: she even read all the books, like after I was
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 6: done with them, and she loved Charlie. You know, I
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 6: think parents loved Charlie.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 5: He was like, I think this is what I was thinking,
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 5: because I'm not gonna lie. One of the things that
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 5: I thought about between this and Harry Potter the movie,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 5: not necessarily the books, we're not talking about that, but
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 5: the fact that like the acting. The acting, and I
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 5: think most of the younger those who have grown up
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 5: from these franchises will admit this as well, was not great.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 5: All of the acting is really really, really really bad,
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 5: and a lot of it had to do even though
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 5: there weren't children. There were teenagers or older, and you
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 5: would think it would be better, but it quite was
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 5: that they quite didn't it there. But the differences between
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 5: the Harry Potter movie and the Twilet movie is that
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 5: Harry Potter had caliber, adult seasoned actors that were at
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 5: the forefront, so it wasn't just the kids all around
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 5: doing things. So you had that level of conversations that
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 5: came in and like really helped the younger generations with
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 5: it come to life as we're this one is more focused.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 5: Twilight is more focused on the newer, less experienced actors
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 5: as taking the entire movie. So he doesn't feel as
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 5: Charlie did, but like, yeah, you had Charlie.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 6: He's a pretty seasoned actor. Yeah, Arlie, he was the people.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 5: Charlie, he's bad guys and some of those stuff.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 6: Charlie, why are you a villain?
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 5: But the but the U for who you uh elders
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 5: those actors are seasoned actors do and they were obviously
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 5: a different caliber too, but you just don't see much
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 5: of the acting and so you're like, damn it just
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 5: having that kind of level.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 6: We needed more of them for sure.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, but having that was a little different to this.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 5: But yes, Charlie, apparently I am a curmudgeon that threatens
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 5: people with gun.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 6: Okay, I can say what I was now, and I'm
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 6: so happy with my answer. I didn't even try to
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 6: get you know, I could have put I love drinking blood,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 6: but I was real about I was real in my answers,
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 6: and I got Alice, who was one of the best.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 5: I love Alice's character. I think like Ashley Green really tried,
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 5: but she didn't understand that. Like the first one, she
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 5: was a little better actually, like maybe because of the
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 5: way it's written that she's just like Flighty and just
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 5: really nonchalant and even when she is concerned, it's still nonchalant.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 6: She's so important, but like Alice is op.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, Annie, what was your answer?
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 3: I got Carlisle.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 6: I love so amazing. I love Carlisle's He's amazing. Carlisle
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 6: is one of the best too.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: It's funny because you know, I haven't like read or seen,
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: so I was like, this is good. But it was
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 2: like you're compassionate and you care about people and you
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: want to protect people and.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 6: Know, yeah, mindset. I was like the life of the
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 6: party and stuff, which I don't know about, but I'll
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 6: take it either away. I love Alice. I could see
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 6: it for you, you as Carlyle and Samantha as Charlie.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 5: Apparently I'm oblivious, So there's that.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 4: Okay, Okay, we're it's it's.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 6: I'm fine and Alice Charlie, I mean, Charlie loves.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 5: That charlietally loves Alice and that is so Annie. You're
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 5: I will say, you're at least like two thirds of
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 5: the way in maybe three fits. We'll see three fits.
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 5: It is because that's five movies. You're three fits of
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 5: the way and tell us your review.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 2: They're fun, They're fun. I I found a good time
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 2: watching them. I've had a lot of fun moments. Do
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: you want to I'm excited to get to the end,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: and then I have.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 3: Some like.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: Overarching thoughts I want to discuss, Okay, but yeah, I
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 2: will admit I've been nervous.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: I know it. I was like, I don't know what's
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 3: gonna happen to me.
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 6: But okay, the question is what team are you?
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: And oh, I'm team neither. I'm teen Switzerland.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 6: Some people might have been Team Bella. I wonder if
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 6: that it might have been a thing too, see it was.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 5: Like I was. I think I was team Edward as
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 5: well because I love the sulky Yeah, take care of you,
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 5: the ideals. But in the end, I think I was
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 5: really team Leah in the Team Seth. I loved Seth
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 5: and Lea, and I think it was like towards the
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 5: end where I really really love them, but I like
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 5: she was annoying for sure, but I feel like and
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 5: she was made that way, but I I feel like
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 5: there's absolute reason as to why. And yeah, but we
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 5: didn't talk about the fact that there's where wolf packed
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 5: telepathy and then were they can hear each other those
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 5: thoughts even if they don't want it when they're all wolves,
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 5: and it's really unfortunate because it's and then she's in
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 5: the pack with her ex who she's still absolutely in
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 5: love with, so he hears everything, which is that's a nightmare.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 6: I just wish I would let her imprint somebody. I
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 6: don't think that ever happened.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 5: But they never do.
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: I have to say, because again I've read a lot
• 1:05:32
