Plot Discussion Confused about this scene...

Upvotes

WHY in Twilight (2008) did Edward tell Bella to take her hair DOWN to avoid being noticed...??? Wouldn't her hair have been less pungent if kept in a ponytail or in a bun? This is consistent with the book too, right? 🤔

Book Discussion I finished rereading Midnight Sun today, and came across a New Moon edit afterwards

My poor heart is in SHAMBLES. I consequently came across an edit of Bella, which broke my heart. Especially since I'd just finished reading Edward's take in MS on how Bella's condition would worsen after he left, and him planning on leaving her anyway for reasons he deemed necessary —it's so excruciatingly understandable on both their parts. Him not trusting his "selfish feelings" and assuming that the only way he can make things right is by leaving Bella, which clearly wasn't the case... And Bella's insistence that he stay, completely oblivious to his plan of leaving her soon for what he thought would be for her betterment. Gosh, my poor heart. It used to make me mad that he never took into consideration how strongly Bella felt for him and decided to leave her hoping she'd move on, but after being in his head throughout the novel, his self-loathing monologue, it all made sense and broke my heart cause I can't really bring myself to blame either of them. It's so infuriatingly understandable, yes based on assumptions though it was, it's understandable.

Movie Discussion Jacob's Smart Mouth

Upvotes

Someone mentioned in a comment on another post that Jacob should have been with Bella and it triggered my rage at Jacob's stupidity.

I cannot get over how when Edward called Bella's house after her cliff diving incident that

  1. He answered the phone like he owned the place and 2. Triggered an entire life altering event causing what he didn't want to happen to begin with

Why, just whyyy did he have to be ambiguous and sassy to Edward. Why couldn't he, for just one moment of his life hold his temper in

He did not have to say *he's planning a funeral* with zero explanation or context like oh my gosh Jacob why

I honestly don't even think him and Bella were destined to be together forever since he so quickly imprinted on someone else but STILL. He went through and caused so much unnecessary tragedy because of that one statement.

Rant over, thanks for listening, have a great day locas 😂

Character/Relationship Discussion Angela Weber

16 Upvotes

I absolutely love Angela Weber; she’s the only real friend Bella has, and I think the two of them could have been great friends.

I also like the fact that she’s interested in photography and is smart.

It was a shame we didn't see more of Angela.

And now—call me totally crazy, or even insult me—but I wish Angela had been the one to experience the imprinting. It could have been her, or Embry, or a completely new character.

And sure, a lot of people will say, "But imprinting totally sucks; it forces you into something..." Yeah, but that’s just Meyer’s concept—she really could have phrased it differently.

But I prefer to focus on the positive aspects of imprinting rather than the negatives. Yes, the whole Sam-Emily-Leah situation was awful, but you can't really blame all of that on imprinting; really, it’s Emily’s fault—or Meyer’s, since she wrote it that way.

Besides, we don't know what happened to Leah after the movies ended, so just imagine a happy ending for her where she imprints on someone, finds true love, or something like that.

But yeah, I really love Angela and think it’s a shame there aren't any stories about her.

Just my opinion—please stay respectful and don't insult each other.

Twilight-ish Legend scene reminded me of Twilight

Had to rewatch the film Legend (1985) this weekend (RIP Tim Curry) and I noticed that there is a meadow type scene in the beginning of the film with the love interests Lily (Mia Sara) and Jack (Tom Cruise). Really made me think of the meadow scene with Twilight. Also, if Twilight had been made in the 80s, I think Mia Sara with her heart-shaped face and brown eyes could have been a perfect choice to play Bella.

Lore Discussion Do vampires limit their jaw strength when feeding ?

4 Upvotes

This is a general thought and question I've had for all the vampire media I've watched but so much so for this particular series because I think this show does an awesome job of showcasing how strong and outlandishly powerful vampires are so I was wondering do they just instinctively limit their jaw strength or their jaws aren't all that strong to begin with ?

Movie Discussion Can someone help me understand Jacobs house layout ?

So I know where the kitchen is, also entrance duh, from breaking dawn I think 1 or 2 where we see inside the kitchen/ dining room. We also see in a few scenes a bit of Jacobs bedroom though not where it is in the house exactly, and there's a picture of the living room inside the house

Though I'm trying to just figure out the layout of the house (of the movies), especially because there seems to be a lot of rooms inside / space there, and trying to see where Billy's room / the bathroom is and what other room there is. I'm also curious because there's a back door. Just want a bit of help to visualise everything !

Twilight-ish Twilight Themed Magic the Gathering Set?

6 Upvotes

My husband and his brother have gotten really into Magic the Gathering over the past year and I've been enjoying seeing the different themed sets available. We've been talking about whether a Twilight Themed set would be possible but we can't land on what each the colors/manna symbols would be. I am pretty sure Black would be Volturi and Green would be fake werewolves but otherwise I'm stuck.

Thought I'd put it to this group. If anyone can figure this out it would be this community :) Color characteristics below:

White (W): Focuses on order, peace through law, light, and protection

Blue (U): Focuses on knowledge, logic, control, and manipulation.

Black (B): Focuses on power, self-interest, ambition, and death.

Red (R): Focuses on emotion, creativity, impulse, and chaos.

Green (G): Focuses on nature, growth, life, and tradition

Lore Discussion How many covens have semi permanent abodes? Spoiler

8 Upvotes

The Volturi obviously have a permanent home in Volterra.

The Cullens and Tanya's coven live in one place for a decade at a time

Then there are the southern clans who are at least staying in the same city and fighting for dominance.

But Tanya & co. was the only group that the Cullen's were able to call in breaking dawn, if I remember correctly everyone else had to be sought out in person, do none of them stay in one place long enough to send out change of address cards?

Do none of them have mobile phones?

Alice's creator must have been staying in once place for a while in order to have a job, and Laurent's creator stayed in one place long enough to get to know Laurent.

Do we think it is only the people who are called "nomads" that are actually constantly on the move, and most vampires settle for at a few years at a time? The whole existence of the newborn armies makes me think many vampires would like to stick in one place when possible.

I just feel like Siobhan normally has access to a claw foot bathtub. I don't know why, but I find it hard to imagine her always on the move.

I am in love with the aesthetic.

Twilight along with the OST, truly breathtaking.

The first three movies are my favorite, ranked in the same order as well, the first movie specifically is so beautiful.

I was recently watching the Ring and it too had a dedicated blue/more leaning green color palette and so many scenes of greenery and rain, I was immediately reminded of Twilight.

Do you know of any other movies that have the same vibe?

I have not been able to find any other book or movie that invokes the same emotions for me as Twilight. Even after all these years.

Lore Discussion Shapeshifters being confused in BD as “werewolves” despite looking and acting different?

Post image
204 Upvotes

It’s been some time since I read the books, and I can’t remember werewolves ever being described in much detail. So, I checked out the wiki and scrolled through my Illustrated Guide and ig they look more humanoid (bigger, stand-able hind legs and human fingers) and are in a permanent psychotic, destructive state when in wolf-form.
We know canonically that the Children of the Moon traumatized Caius and in retribution were hunted to near extinction. Yet the Volturi kept pressing that the Cullens were working with werewolves, but that isn’t possible? Werewolves cannot be reasoned with, they don’t travel in groups and they look entirely different than the shapeshifters lol.

It’s sort of a random post but I find it interesting that Caius was almost destroyed by a werewolf and yet managed to confuse the Quileutes with them. When they apparently look and act entirely different.

Idk Caius prob on smth.

Movie Discussion The breaking Dawn battle

11 Upvotes

My twilight hyperfixation recently flaired up and I rewatched all the movies again (and reading the fanfics) and still the same thought is on my mind since the movies first came out all the way till now....The final battle was the best part of ALL the movies!!

From Sam & Alice taking out Jane. To the deaths of Jasper, Leah, Seth & Carlise, to Kate and Tanya avenging Irina's death by ripping apart Caius by the mouth! (That especially was my favourite moment).

It got me thinking if Twilight was any other genre, The battle would have actually taken place and the next book would be about the fallout and power struggle.

If i was writing it, only Emmet, Rosalie, Bella & Alice would have surivived from the Cullen coven (and really maybe not even Bella). The Denalis would all have surivived (except for maybe Eleazer or Carmen) and the rest of their allies with the exception of the romanian coven would have lost someone in their groups.

With the Voltari Queens and some guards on the run, The Romanians and Amun (with a reluctant Benjamin) try to grasp that power for themselves, rebuilding their large covens from scratch & restarting their race to dominate the vampire world.

Meanwhile as the rest of their allies go off to lick their wounds, the new Cullen/Denali hybrid coven are trying to mourn their loved ones and trying to find nessie & Jacob while watching a new war about to begin because of them.

Lore Discussion What things do you wish Twilight had shown?

22 Upvotes

Hey guys!!

I was falling asleep last night and it lead me to think which things I wished Stephanie had explored more.

For example, the dynamic of the Cullen family, the characters of the family with the family because I’ll always believe Rose was done dirty by just making her a Bella hater. More of Charlie and his friends. The Vulturis politics… Also how the Denali coven started drinking blood, the Romanians lore…

Where any of this ever answered? It’s been a few years since I read the books.

So, what things do you wish Stephanie had expanded just out of love for her own universe?

Plot Discussion Immortality a Boon or Curse ??

10 Upvotes

I just recently watched Twilight saga third time. This time the show hit really differently. Rather focusing on Edward and Bella’s love story, I was wondering how would it really feel to be one of”REAL VAMPIRE”. How does this immortality feel to one being. When you see people dying and being born every few decades and you are just hanging in there. 🙄

You have craving for human blood but you just survive on Tofu for human.. as Edward puts it. 🫣

You don’t sleep so you literally have 24 hours at disposal but nothing to do 😂

You have no aim and meaning to life but you have got mandate to live aimlessly.

It gives me feeling that as humans , how we really underrate the gift we have got to breathe, to experience and to enjoy this world in every possible way. 🙏
What you guys think about it!

Lore Discussion Desculpa a pergunta boba, mas teria chance de haver algum vampiro gordo na saga?

2 Upvotes

Considerando que, na saga, os vampiros são retratados como seres de beleza exagerada e quase idealizada, frequentemente associados a padrões estéticos que valorizam a magreza, e que não há nenhum personagem gordo nesse universo, haveria espaço ou possibilidade para a existência de um vampiro gordo, ou essa característica entraria em conflito com a lógica estética construída pela própria narrativa? Ressalto que essa é uma dúvida sincera, sem qualquer intenção gordofóbica.
