Let’s face it, it’ll either be two movies [and be fantastic] or they’ll pull a Titanic and make it last forever [and still be fantastic]. And if they don’t make BD a movie? Heads will roll, fur will fly, shotguns will be pulled…

how depressing would it be if the movies would end. this is the first novels i have ever read, fell in love with the charactersn love the visual treat of the films and well i can not begin to imagine not having the final book made into a movie. gosh we have already missed out on midnight sun beyond horrible the entire world will miss out on this. the movies should be finished….PLEASE. surely all the persons in the know and people that make everything happen will come through for all the fans. new moon was way beter than twilight and i expect each movie to continue to out do the previous.

Well thanks. Probably a bit more thought than i should given i was at work, but the point is the same. I think its only a matter of when now. They’ll make their money, even given the pay increases the actors will expect across the board. I understand the worries about the lack of significant events in the first part of the book but the way i see it, the first film/part of the book would be much more emotional, romantic spin on the series (much like the first half of Twilight should have been – in my opinion); and the latter the action or build up much like we saw in New Moon.

Either way is do-able; i would just like to see the final installment without cuts or compromises. Every movie has them, that’s why they’re movies, not books. But when i think of all the time we could spend with them at their wedding, Isle Esme, her first night as a vampire, arm wrestling Emmett, fitting into the family, etc, etc… maybe its just my over-active imagination, but those are just some things i would like visuals for. Just sayin.

The actors i’m sure want to move on, but they could film all at once and do a 3-4 month shoot and be done, except for press, and most of the work is done post production regardless. I say within 2 months we’ll have our answer and i’ll be it’ll come fall 2011 whether in parts or whole.

I wholeheartedly agree! Deathly Hallows has so many intense moments and battles, you couldn’t possibly squeeze it into one movie. Breaking Dawn could easily be condensed into one. Argue as some might, it has no epic battle scenes of doom to suck up time. I felt that BD did drag at points, and that’d certainly be eliminated with just one film. Hopefully Summit will do what’s best for the book.

I don’t think this would be a smart move. BD may be long, but it’s not plot-intensive enough that it would really require two films. Considering that even the fandom is split over Breaking Dawn, I don’t have high hopes for even ONE BD film, let alone two. Sure, the diehards will see it, but if Summit wants to get casual viewers to come out, they’d best leave it at one.

BD is my favorite book of the four. I understand not everyone out there likes it, but I don’t understand why anyone would say that it shouldn’t be made or it should be made only a certain way to cut out the stuff they don’t think worthy. Those of us who love this book should get every chance to see it on the screen.

New Moon is my least favorite of the four. I am not a big Jacob fan, but I wanted the movie to be true to the book. I wanted all the fandom to have something to enjoy and love. It is so terrible that the same courtesy be given to us BD fans?

I would rather Breaking Dawn never got made into a movie. It’s one of those books I can’t read more than a few pages of without wanting to throw it out the window. But Summit will probably want to make as much money out of the Twilight Saga as possible, so I guess Breaking Dawn will eventually go ahead…

Of course BD will happen, probably as two movies to keep mlking this now well-established cash cow. Contract negotiations are probably holding things up. Rob & Kristen & Tay are smart to hold out for the best deals because what other option does Summit have? You can’t recast ‘em and aren’t they only signed up for 3 movies? I’m not calling the actors greedy, but they should get what they deserve. Sorry for being so cynical but Twilight is so Hollywood now.

If BD was 2 movies:
And what would the 1st movie be? Endlessly boring for everybody except the Twihards..
Don’t get me wrong, I loved the book..
But I just cannot see it in 2 movies… One would be really bad and the second piece a bit brutal but way better…

Why would the stars not want to? They love these characters.
