Watching Twilight For the First Time Part 3

• ⅔ Marriages do not end in divorce. The actual statistic is about 21/50 end in divorce. Even saying ½ of marriages end in divorce would be more accurate.

• I can’t decide if I prefer love dovey Bella and Edward or mopey Bella and Edward.

• Charlie is still one of the best characters and he has a clear favorite in Bella’s love triangle.

• Why did Jacob cross out lines in his letter? You can still read them.

• Poor Edward has to eat with her friends that she barely likes instead of his “brothers and sisters” that both he and Bella like. 

• Bella’s mom is not as cool as Charlie.

• Bella’s mom’s present to her is actually awesome and thoughtful. 

• Can vampires have kids? Is Bella giving that up? I don’t get her decision. She’s leaving behind her parents, old friends and potential future family for Edward. 

• Vampires running looks so dumb.

• The music when they see Jacob is way too heavy metal for the situation.

• Oh I have missed the shirtless boys in jean shorts.

• Jacob’s description of imprinting tells me nothing.

• Shirtless Jacob is back.

• Again, Rosalie's story is way more interesting than the actual plot.

• Forks High lets the class sit next to their friends during graduation instead of in alphabetical order? That’s lucky. 

• Charlie is such a great dad. Have I said that yet? Bella is so selfish for wanting to drop off the face of the planet. I actually despise her for it. 

• Look at that graduation ceremony I never got because covid. 

• Anna Kendrick’s speech is about making lots of choices to figure out what you want. Bella wants to make one decision that lots of people are telling her not to that will completely throw her life off track forever. 

• I love how the vampires are hesitant to make friends with anyone or invite anyone into their home. But then they have a full fledged party at the end of the year.

• All the vampires always talk in these gravely voices when they’re discussing something serious. It’s amusing

•  Should we comment on the fact that Bella will let the vampires fight for her but not the werewolves because they might “get themselves killed”? I feel like she has favorites. Just saying. 

• Jacob’s got a thick sarcasm voice.

• How “newborn” is Jasper? He obviously has control enough to go to school and be around humans and be a “vegetarian” but still has insider knowledge on fighting newborns that even Carlisle doesn’t have? I mean, they were all newborns once, right?

• Why are newborns stronger because they still have human DNA? Wouldn’t that make them weaker?

• The wolves do not look that great.

• Oh my goodness they actually answered my question about Jasper being an expert. I’m actually impressed.

• Also didn’t it say earlier that Jasper is the youngest of them but Edward was turned in the early 1900s so…

• Bella’s face when Jasper and Alice kiss in front of her is so relatable. 

• Edward casually watching Bella sleep is just as awkward as every other time he’s watched her sleep. 

• Alice’s powers are so ambiguous and Victoria’s way of getting around them doesn’t make any sense.

• The shirtless werewolves in jean shorts will forever be my favorite part of this movie.

• Jacob would rather share Bella with Edward then getting over her and finding someone else. What is the pull with this girl?

• I love how Bella’s surprised Alice is on a first name basis with Charlie. But like...Bella calls him by his first name so…

• Charlie AKA the best character is so awesome and adorable trying to teach Bella to get married for the right reasons.

• Edward made a fatal mistake. Telling Bella she could have anything she wanted. 

• Bella’s thirsty, passionate, sexy voice sounds just as monotone as her other voices.

• She bargained marriage for sex. That’s….problematic. 

• The chemistry between Bella and Edward is so stiff and lifeless.

• Nothing kills the mood like the guy telling you to stop taking off your clothes...I’m assuming of course. 

• Victoria got over her dead boyfriend and the source of her hatred for the Cullins really fast.

• Why is the tent in the woods safer than like her own house?

• Even Edward is pro Team Jacob

• I wish I could walk around in the snow with just khaki shorts and not be freezing.

• Why are Jacob and Bella kissing when he just found out she’s engaged? 

• One day I want a teen romance where the main character ends up with the better, nicer second guy instead of the first, toxic guy. 

• Bella: “I don’t know what happened.” Me: “Well you kissed a guy who isn’t your fiance, Bella.”

• It feels painfully obvious to me that she just likes Jacob as a friend, even if he’s crushing on her. But whatever. Drama will drama. 

• There is so much talking in this last hour and I know there’s some big battle coming up and I’m way more interested in that than this boring relationship talk. 

• The “imprint” talk from Jacob and the “mate” talk from Edward is what started this weird werewolf thing in teen romance that they have one mate that they instantly lust for when they see them. 

• Victoria just using Riley and not actually loving him makes me happy because it means she actually didn’t just get over James. 

• Victoria’s scream sounds like It.

• Victoria’s dead!

• Vampires light on fire very easily. Also I’m very glad to see Seth’s okay.

• Wait so their jean shorts don’t reappear when werewolves transform back so apparently the tribe just as jean shorts stashed all around the woods just in case. 

• Jacob will literally wait for Bella to be with him until he dies. That’s not healthy.

• Edward tells Bella she’s too selfless but she is most definitely 100% one of the most selfish people. 

• Edward and Bella have only known each other for like a year and a half. 

• Bella’s ring is ugly.
