Peacefield Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Woo Fi! How exciting!! I'm hoping mine arrives today as well and is there sparkling in my mailbox when I get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fi. Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 For those in the UK, the sneak peek of Eclipse is on the Main Feature disc - you need to go into the Special Features menu (where there's also the option to watch 12 extended scenes from the movie) The commentary is not very good, Chris Weitz & Peter Lambert weren't even on the same continent when they did it! They talk about some interesting stuff but it's not the same, I miss cheeseburgers and they better have our boy back for the dvd of Eclipse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weave Posted March 20, 2010 Author Share Posted March 20, 2010 I think a lot of people's post persons will be getting hugged tomorrow! I wasn't in the house when mines arrived, just as well, I might have scared our postman by giving him a *high five* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melisa Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 It's arrived!! I popped into town though and when I got back I thought it hadn't come as my boyfriend had hidden it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nici Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Mine turned up this morning My sister is on her way now so we can watch it and the four hours of extras as I ordered the double disc. Woo! Oh and I got a free keyring with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacefield Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Mine came today too, woo! I've watched it twice, once with commentary and once without. I started watching the extras but took a break for dinner and to pop on here. Oh and the film cell I received with mine? LAME! It's a big postcard with one tiny inch by inch piece of film, and it's of Jacob . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that doubly sucks! It's tiny and it's Jacob - just thought of something but I'm sure you know what without me hinting I've lost track of how many times I watched the film this weekend It's safe to say I neglected everything & everyone and I now have a ton of catching up to do! The one good thing about the dvd, I can fast forward all the cringy Jacob bits where he's being a d****e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimmy619 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I am hoping that my copy is there when I get home.....!! If it is, I am going to watch it as soon as I get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephanie2008 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I watched it tonight FINALLY I have to say, that I like movie Jake alot more than book Jake. I thought the hour or so where Edward was missing was going to be unbearable and long but I really enjoyed the dialogue and the relationship between Bella and Jake (although some parts were a bit too cringeworthy such as the taking the shirt of scene to wipe her head ). I loved the scenes with the Cullens and the Volturri (although I've been pronouncing that name wrong in my head all this time ). For me, the make-up, wigs, set colouring, well practically everything, was a step up from the first movie. It feels a lot softer and a lot more romantic. Also, I was impressed with the wolf graphics, I thought they were going to be really corny but they were pretty scary and cute at the same time Ok, there's my two pennies worth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacefield Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Wooo, Stephanie! Cheers for finally seeing NM . I agree with you about the cringeworthy moments, and the whole thing was definitely a step up from the first movie. Listening to the commentary with Weitz was also really interesting, hearing why he decided to do things certain ways in this film, and how he wanted it to be different from the first one. I also liked that it had humor in it, which I didn't really notice come through much in the first film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the same about the shirt part when I first saw it. I then re-read the book and I think that he takes his shirt off then too?!

Stephanie2008 Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I'm not sure. I'm going to have to reread the book because I usually skip the middle chapters with Jake . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimmy619 Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I'm not sure. I'm going to have to reread the book because I usually skip the middle chapters with Jake . Tehe, I did the same thing! Although I read it all now as I like it a bit more after the film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesilbeach Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I'm pretty sure he does take his shirt off at that point in the book too, as I think I remember when I watched the film at the cinema it was one of the details from the books I recognised.

Johnny Carson Whit Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Not sure if this is any use to anybody, or if this is mentioned elsewhere on this thread, or if it's common knowledge, but just received an email detailing that you can get this DVD now for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I have watched this twice now and love it. It is much more grown up than the Twilight film. I found Edward to be lacking in emotion though, he seemed a bit watered down to me if that makes sense, still love him though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimmy619 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I liked Edward in the film. Like a lot of other people, I didn't have high hopes for the film becuase Edward wasn't in it that much. I didn't need to worry though as good old Jake kept me entertained. I liked the special feature 'Becoming Jacob' as well as the one about the pack in general, interesting stuff!

Peacefield Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I didn't get all the same extra features you guys in the UK did . I was looking around online and realized that I'll have to buy 3 different store's copies in order to get all the extras that are out there. What a pain!
