Twilight Examiner has a comparison of Breaking Dawn quotes from the novel and how they are morphed when they appear on screen.

Current items from the teaser:

1. Bella (Kristen Stewart): “After eighteen years of being utterly ordinary, I’ve finally found that I can shine.”

Book Version (Ch. 26, p. 523): “After eighteen years of mediocrity, I was pretty used to being average. I realized now that I’d long ago given up any aspirations of shining at anything. I just did the best with what I had, never quite fitting into my world. So this was really different. I was amazing now – to them and to myself. It was like I had been born to be a vampire. The idea made me want to laugh, but it also made me want to sing. I had found my true place in the world, the place I fit, the place I shined.”

She also has a collection of not to be missed quotes to look out for in part 2.

“You nicknamed my daughter after the Loch Ness Monster?” – Bella Cullen (Ch. 22, p. 451)

“Bella” chose the name “Renesmee,” but while she was muscling through the torment of transformation, “Jacob” not only imprinted on her daughter, but he also gave her a very odd nickname. Mama Cullen is none-too-pleased here. Needless to say, things get entertaining.

The BBC lists Breaking Dawn as a film that brought out the passion in UK fans.

MTV has a list up of the top ten news generating items on their website. Breaking Dawn came in at number 2. Not bad, considering that number one was Lady Gaga.

Wild surprise we know, but right now we are neck-in-neck with the final installment of Harry Potter. Head on over to MTV and vote for your favorite!

MTV decided to try and figure why Breaking Dawn has such a buzz, with lots of fans (moreso than the last film) talking repeat viewings. By repeat viewings we don’t just mean two times, we mean like 4 plus. One of the people that they asked was the Lexicon’s Laura. It’s not often that we get taken by surprise around here, but you can see what Laura said to MTV. A massive shift in emails, Tweets, and blog comments spurred us to make the referenced poll.

“Twilight” expert Laura Byrne-Cristiano, who runs TwilightLexicon.com, said she’s noticed a lot of fans changing their opinions about “Breaking Dawn” the book now that the film version has opened.

“I’ve also noticed a real shift in opinion that caught me by surprise so much so that I ran a poll about it,” said Byrne-Cristiano said. “When the novel ‘Breaking Dawn’ came out, it was a love/hate thing. But from what I’ve seen, people have really started to change their minds about it, and have come to like it.

“The people who got into ‘Twilight’ after the movies came out seem to pick ‘Breaking Dawn’ as their favorite book by a landslide, which is something that never occurred to me in a million years because of all the backlash when it first came out.”

Apparently MTV is on to something, because the amount of sites linking to this poll is unlike anything we have ever seen. Like we said earlier, we don’t get totally blindsided around here too often. This one took us by surprise, Check out other fans and experts giving MTV their opinion here.
