I personally think that C Weitz did an amazing job. The movie was beautiful. I liked Twilight, but I think it could have been way better. I agree with Mary that 3 hours would work. I mean really; do you think people are NOT going to go because it’s 3 hours long. Please. It is the final movie, the wedding/honeymoon/birth, Bella’s transformation, all the different vamps coming, and the possible battle. To paraphrase from another movie: “If you film it; they will come.”

My husband doesn’t like the Twilight movies at all but said the Lord of the Rings books were just as long as Breaking Dawn and they made it into a movie. Sure 3 hours but it worked. He loved the Lord of the Rings books and the movies so obviously they got everything in that needed to be in. As for kids sitting through the movie, I think they would be fine. I’m not a kid but sitting through 2 hours of the first 2 movies so far has flown by! I think if you love Twilight you will sit through a 5 hour movie if you get to see all that you want. I just hope they make up their minds soon because if the ending of Eclipse is anything like New Moon we will be wanting to see Breaking Dawn the next day!

ALEXANDRA – For your information, I love the books a lot. But in reality, Breaking Dawn seriously doesn’t have enough stuff in it to be about 3 hours long. It’s all pretty much pointless ramble.

Breaking Dawn is the climax to the incredible love connection between Edward and Bella. Chris did a wonderful job portraying the pain of separation that Edward and Bella felt in New Moon. So, I think he would do a great job with the movie that is all about the love that they share.
As for splitting BD into 2 movies, I don’t think it would do the job that Summit thinks it is going to do. 8 months between 2 parts of the same movie is too long and would make many fans angry. But 1 movie would either be too long or cut out too much.
Because Breaking Dawn is so important and the favorite of many fans, I think Summit should make 2 movies, but don’t leave the fans waiting for 8 months. Make the time inbetween 5 months or even less.

Darlene- If you don’t like the books, which is pretty obvious by your comment, then why the heck are you reading this. They should really split BD into two movies. Its easy to find a splitting point where they could do that. And Eiramlen- They WONT make a 3 hr movie. Alot of fans of twilight are simply too young and impaticent to sit through that long of a movie and then non-fans wont see it either because it is too long. So clearly unless we want BD to be rushed like the end of NM it needs to be longer.

On another point Catherine Hardwicke was a terrible directer. At least for Twlilight. Maybe her other movies were good, I wouldn’t know. But in twilight there were absolutly some unforgivable parts that just made the rest of the movie laughable. Chris did a way better job and I pray that he decides to direct BD

Braking Dawn DOESN’T have to be split into two movies. There isn’t enough information to make TWO movies. Breaking Dawn lacked content so much, you could easily make a 5 minute movie out of it. They are only doing it to copy Harry Potter.
