Description of First Seven Minutes of Breaking Dawn Clip

For those of us who did not get to attend Comic Con, how hard has it been hearing all the fabulous things that our fandom has been able to experience? Truly, I love living vicariously through others. 

But as we all know, it's the clips that are revealed at Comic Con that are most always, worth the wait. After all their waiting for days on end. Those fans do deserve a sneak peak of Breaking Dawn 2!

But thankfully, I stumbled across the description of the seven minute clip via hypable.com, brought to us by Hollywood.com

Enjoy!!

"The movie opens with


Bella's (Kristen Stewart) eyes — picking up just where we left off. She has super senses, and Condon shows it off with zooms to dust particles, water droplets, and more. Looking around, Bella sees Edward (Robert Pattinson) reaching out for her hand hand. They embrace, and Twilight whips out a signature romantic cuddling moment.

Edward puts it bluntly: "We're the same temperature now." The two look in the mirror. Bella obviously loves the new look — Stewart even cracks a smile! She turns and gives Edward a big hug, and her newfound strength catches him off-guard. Frankly, she almost breaks him. When he stands back up straight after Bella's enthusiastic hug, she gives him a good ol' fashioned butt squeeze for good measure (and with vampiric muscle, it makes him jump).

Bella really wants to see Renesmee, but Edward insists she hunts first. The two run out the door and into the woods — at super speed! It's like a Flash comic. Again, we see Bella's super sense. She zooms in on blooming flowers and spider's spinning web. She leaps over a water fall. This is most definitely Super Bella.

Bella eventually picks up the scent of a deer, but she finds herself distracted by a nearby mountain climber (who is miles away). She can see his neck. It's calling to her vampiric thirst. She runs at him, climbing up the face of a cliff in super speed (it looks as nuts as you would hope). Bella is ready to pounce, Stewart even looking like she's in tiger stance. Fierce. Luckily, Edward talks her out of it. Bella jumps straight off the face of the cliff and focuses back on the deer. When she crosses paths with the creature again, she comes face to face with a mountain lion. No big deal, Bella wrestles the mountain lion. So good.

The seven minutes conclude with Jacob's (Taylor Lautner) entrance. He thinks Edward and Bella look perfect together. Everyone's happy! It all wraps up with Edward and Jacob bringing Bella in to meet Renesmee..."

Are you excited?!

Great Photo App For the iPhone

For me, taking photos is a very soothing hobby. Now as much as I love my DSLR camera, I love my iPhone just as much. Because let's face it. We pay a lot to have an iPhone and it's really convenient just to carry the one item, as opposed to my phone... my camera bag... my purse... You get the point!

So, of course I like to share what I've discovered in case you are like me and enjoy taking photos with your phone as well.

Today I'm talking about the application by Microsoft, called Photosynth. Please refer to the website for the technical details, but in a nutshell, I use it to take panoramic shots and I love it!

What the app allows you to do is to focus on one aspect of your landscape, then move slightly right or left, snap again, then continue on to the third focal point and snap again. The app will merge all three photos together and autocrop if you like, into one larger photo. Here are some examples of photos I've taken using the application.

Honolulu Airport

Cosmopolitan Hotel in Old Towne, San Diego

The view from the Lavender Farm in Maui, Hawaii.

The view from Diamond Head Crater, Oahu.

The view looking down into Diamond Head Crater, Oahu.

I think you get the idea of where the app really comes in handy. Some other suggestions of potentially really great shots would be at a music concert or Broadway play, or really anytime you want to capture a large shot that reflects the grandeur of the landscape, whether it is a crowd of people or nature, itself. Anyhow, thought I'd share! Now go be inspired!

What I Got In The Mail Is Nothing Short of True Blood Awesomeness!

I have been wanting to blog about this for quite some time, but time itself, seems to slip by. Needless to say, it is certainly worth bragging about!

If you haven't already stumbled across Sue's blog post on her most recent adventure at the True Blood Season 5 Premiere, please do read about it here at TwiBite. And for the record, Sue has the best stories of her fabulous ventures of fandom related events. Honestly, browse TwiBite and you'll see for yourself.

Holy Canoli, Sue touched Alex!!

But, what I love about Sue is that she is willing to share all the intimate details to her escapades and thinks of others, when she can. That's what I call, a real fan. 

With that being said, Sue and her daughter were able to get a poster filled with most of the cast signatures from this season, including my beloved Alex. Knowing that I am a fan, Sue emailed me that she wanted one of the poster to go to a True Blood home and I couldn't have screamed louder when I got her email. 

And then it came in the mail... and it was nothing short of True Blood Awesomeness! 


Speaking of... How hot is the Guardian this season? We'll discuss later.

Breaking Dawn Part 2 Trailer:



It's nice to see a glimpse of what the finale for the Twilight Saga will look like. Out of all the screencaps and images, this one caught my eye...

Having just finally seen the American version of Girl with a Dragoon Tattoo, I can honestly say, Edward in THIS outfit, with the Volvo behind him... makes me want to see Rob in a spy or thriller movie. LOVEZ!!! (I know, it's weird how my brain works. You'd think that I would be all excited about BD 2 and all I can think of are Rob's future endeavors.) 

But, I'd be lying if I didn't admit that I'm eager to see BD2 (of course I am) and hope that Bill Condon can bring life to the anti-climatic scene in the end, by focusing on the characters, themselves, and of course how they relate to one another. 

Not much longer... Here's to November!
