There isn't much to add here. Once again I am intrigued at how much these trailers seem to be treating the seemingly sought-after finale (Edward and Bella get married) as a genuine tragedy, with the resulting pregnancy-of-doom as some kind of punishment. As it is, each installment looks and feels more cinematic and polished than the last and this Bill Condon installment is no exception. I enjoy these pictures more or less as guilty pleasures, relishing the time spent with the supporting cast as opposed to the three main romantic leads. Of course, even many a fan kinda hated the final book of the series, so it will be interesting to see if said literary failure has any effect on the box office for the last two installments. Come what may, the second-highest three-day weekend of 2011 is all-but guaranteed. Breaking Dawn part I drops on November 18th. As always, we'll see...
