'Twilight: Eclipse'

Okay, so, last night I went and saw 'Eclipse' again in a much better frame of mind. For one thing, I wasn't experience the anger of losing a bet. Enough of that. On to what I thought of the movie this time round.

I actually really enjoyed it. Still think it is silly that they can't get Edward's car right, but hey! You get that.
Overall, they keep the most important aspects of the plot alive and kicking, and the creators have made the film fun with a fair amount of humour. I think I have mentioned somewhere before that they don't have a lot of humour in these movies, as compared with the books, but this one certainly has more than the last two movies. Especially the one-liners of Edward and Jacob about the other.
The scenes in the meadow are particularly fun and nice to watch (the film almost starts there, and ends in the same place), and the scenes with Charlie are classic - especially the funny 'Sex Talk' scene. But then, Billy Burke pretty much steals all scenes that he stars in. It was good, too, having the flashback scenes for Rosalie's and Jasper's lives before being a vampire - well, okay...Jasper's flashbacks also include vampire time.
The scenes of the newborns in Seattle were good to see, as well, along with the Volturi guard (comprising of Jane, Alec, Felix and Demetri - though in the book you don't know who the fourth person is: Alec isn't mentioned) doing nothing about them. I'm really starting to wish that I had read the Bree Tanner novella online while I had the chance (just never got around to it). Considering the role the Volturi are going to be playing in the next movie (well, Part II of Breaking Dawn, anyway, I would think, more than Part I), it was good to see them make an appearance in this movie, to show a dislike of the Cullens building.
What I miss most about the movie is the anxiety that occurs throughout due to the attacks by the newborn vampires on the people in Seattle, and how this could draw the Volturi down on the Cullens for a 'visit', as well as how the Cullens aren't sure how they are going to defeat the newborn army before the werewolves step in and say they will help. There is a whole day or two of fear for the Cullens, and this isn't even really looked at.
Anyway, overall, I really enjoyed the film this time round. Will be buying the DVD when it comes out on sale - or else hope that someone buys it for me.

What's your opinion?
