Eclipse Movie Mistakes

Check out the TwiExaminer's article on The Twilight Saga: Eclipse movie mistakes here. It was just weird timing that she posted this article, as I had just been making my own list of Eclipse "goofs" a few days before. I think we've all seen the movie enough times to notice a few =)

I noticed the same things most everyone else did, and I don't agree with them all, but I can see why they would catch the differences. What absolutely floored me was that my husband caught one on his very first viewing (of the many I dragged him to). He noticed that Riley's "missing" poster said "last seen May 2010" when earlier Charlie had said that he had been missing for a year, which means that the flier should have said May 2009. I was quite impressed that he noticed that!!

I am curious, anyone else find any "goofs" in Eclipse? I know that every movie has them, and it doesn't make me like the film any less. I think that it just proves how awesome Twilight fans are, that we've seen the movie enough times to notice.

So, who has a keen eye? =)

Happy Birthday TwiTwin1 & TwiTwin2

"A very happy birthday to my favorite twins! What shall we do today?"

"Nope. Sorry dude. I'm the lucky one who gets to take these beautiful girls out. After all, I AM hotter than you."

"Do you think we should let them know that we already have plans to celebrate? Nope, ok then. Ladies...shall we?"

Breaking Dawn - Part 2 Release Date

Until now, weve only had a release date for the first part of Breaking Dawn (November 18, 2011), but now Summit has announced that Breaking Dawn - Part 2 has an official release date of Friday, November 16, 2012.

That means there is an entire year between seeing Part 1 and Part 2.

Filming however, will be shot concurrently this fall.

How do you feel about there being an entire year between the Breaking Dawn movies? Will viewers get uninterested? Will Summit be using that time to load Part 2 with lots of special effects? Is this a good or bad thing?
