Music Details on Breaking Dawn Trailer

The Twilight Examiner has an excellent article up on the music used in the Breaking Dawn Trailer.

“The answer is no, per Jack Morrissey[Bill Condon's partner]. The score was being recorded in London, England last week, so there was definitely no time for that to be incorporated into the trailer. Besides, most trailers don’t include music from the actual film.

Note: You might recognize a few notes from the Breaking Dawn – Part 1 trailer in the Into The Wild trailer (at the 1:40 mark). One Twilight sleuth noticed that yesterday.”

Crucial Scene Details from Breaking Dawn Trailer


One of our Lexicon readers Kim wrote in to tell us the following:

I noticed that in the first “stand off with the wolves” shot from the trailer that Jacob was nowhere near the Cullens or the pack and then in the next second he is screaming out “If you kill her, you kill me”. I think he is not in the shot when the wolves first arrived because he was imprinting on Renesmee! Also Edward shirt color changes from the line “they won’t touch her” to the fight. I guess we will know in November but that shirt is way too blood stained for it to be anything else. What do you Twilight experts think?

What other tiny details have you noticed?

Top Moments From The Breaking Dawn Part 1 Trailer

MTV has compiled a list of their top five moments from the Breaking Dawn Part 1 trailer.

Here’s what they had to say about one of their choices

Wolves vs. Vamps
It wouldn’t be a “Twilight” movie without some sort of epic battle involved, and in “Breaking Dawn – Part 1,” there is a grand showdown between wolves and vampires. The wolf pack, which Jacob has deserted, wants to prevent Bella’s unborn half-human, half-vampire from being born. “Get ready, they’re coming for Bella,” Jacob says, anxiously. “They’re not going to touch her,” answers Edward. We then see a shot of a standoff, wolves surrounding the vampires, at which point Jacob addresses them, “If you kill her, you kill me,” followed by quick cuts of Alice and Jasper Cullen fighting the wolves.
