A very Happy Sunday to everyone! This week we bring you an Edward & Bella themed video from XAXAwitch1′s channel and is titled Come Back to Me Please Baby || Breaking Dawn and features Pina by Thom Hanreich.

This video is short but has a punch! It starts with reminding us of how Bella and Edward fell for each other in Twilight, before jumping to their wedding in Breaking Dawn, skipping all the drama and angst of their relationship in New Moon and Eclipse. It then focuses briefly on the friendship between Jacob and Bella that really blossomed in New Moon and Eclipse, just enough to show that there is a tie between Jacob and Bella that can’t be broken before panning back to the story again, that of Bella and Edward’s undeniable love. I love the little glimpse of the grown up Renesmee, who is carefree and happy. It just reiterates why Bella went through with the pregnancy, despite the danger to her own very mortal life. She did it for love but also unknowingly, she did it for the benefit of those around her, even Edward and Jacob since Renesmee is that light and happiness, a sense of normalcy in a world of predators and myths.

What do you think of the video?

Breaking Dawn - Part 1 has made the cut on the BBC’s 2011 Film Review. It’s in good company with other films like Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and The King’s Speech. Check out the video below:

Breaking Dawn - Part 1 really was one of the biggest movies this year. It’s definitely one of the first that springs to my mind for 2011 - just like Harry Potter does. I’m curious as to how big Part 2 will be in 2012. On one hand it’s the conclusion to the entire Twilight Saga, so it should absolutely huge, but on the other side, some of what a lot of people love the best about the Breaking Dawn book - the wedding and the honeymoon - happen in Part 1. I for one can’t wait to see more of vampire Bella and especially little Nessie!

Which do you think was the biggest movie of 2011? Which Breaking Dawn movie do you think will be the biggest?

One of the fan favorite from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 soundtrack has got to be Sleeping At Last’s ‘Turning Page’. In the movie, we get to hear the song twice, an instrumental version in the wedding and the regular version with vocals during the honeymoon. Here you can see Sleeping At Last perform ‘Turning Page’ live at Electrical Audion Studios in Chicago, Illinois. Enjoy the music below!

Unless you’ve been living under a rock (I’ve never understood that saying… how would one live under a rock? they’d surely be squished) - you probably already know that the 4th chapter of the Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn - Part 1 is now in theaters all over the globe!!! This is the very first major motion picture that my music has been a part of, and I just couldn’t be more thrilled! “Turning Page” plays twice in the film… SPOILER ALERT: The instrumental version plays while “Bella” walks down the aisle at the infamous Bella/Edward wedding. (Awww) The regular version with vocals plays during the honeymoon love scene. So for those of you Twilight fans (you know who you are) I hope you enjoy the film, and I can’t wait for you to hear/see “Turning Page”! SO grateful to be a part of this! HUGE thanks to Chop Shop Music, Atlantic Records, Summit Entertainment and the director, Bill Condon for allowing this song to be a part of their film!

NBC has posted a great interview with Peter Facinelli from the Breaking Dawn - Part 1 red carpet where he talked about life on set with the Cullen family, life after Twilight, and some great fans. Check out the interview below:

On the tight-knit family feeling among the castmembers who play Cullens:

I think there’s a family feeling between all of us. It’s like going on a road trip with somebody, and it’s this has been a long road trip because we’ve gone through five films in three years. We’ve all gotten to know each other really well. We’ve been there from the beginning with each other, so it’s really becoming this little niche family. Then you welcome new family members in. After ‘Twilight’ we welcomed in the werewolves. That became a new piece. With ‘Breaking Dawn,’ in part two, we have a whole other group of vampires coming in. But the core of the Cullens is always there. It’s kind of nice in the sense that we might not see each other or talk to each other for a couple of months because everyone is off doing different projects and are busy, but when you see them it’s like you saw them yesterday. I think that’s a true test of a good friend or someone who’s a family member. It’s not awkward. You see each other and it’s like you saw them the day before.

On being a guest at a very damp vampire wedding:

The set was really beautiful and the tables were all lit with wonderful candles. The bummer is that it rained, like, every day. So as much as it was kind of visually beautiful, there were tarps up and it was pouring rain at time. There was mud all over the floor. At times the tarp would break and water would come rushing down on somebody and it was cold and wet. You just kind of had to keep going through it and know that with movie magic no one was ever going to see that – that it was just going to look beautiful. Then there were moments of just pure beauty, where Bella was coming down the aisle. It’s just a magical moment and really beautiful. You get sucked in by that and forget all about the rain.

Architectural Digest has a very interesting new article that highlights an interview with Breaking Dawn production designer, Richard Sherman. Here Richard describes the reasons behind his choice for the Isle Esme honeymoon house, following the descriptions from the book, the design behind the wedding, and what life was like on the set. Read more below:

ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST: How did you choose the Bernardes + Jacobsen house for Edward and Bella’s Brazilian honeymoon?

RICHARD SHERMAN: We looked at pictures and found a house we loved. But two days later we learned it was going to be blown up because it had been built illegally. The next morning I got on a plane to Brazil, hopped on a boat, and went through countless islands along the coastline south of Rio. It took us four weeks to finally find the Bernardes + Jacobsen house, which had a tropical modern interior and was located near Paraty on the coast that we liked.

AD: How closely did you follow the descriptions in the book when filming in Brazil?

RS: In some cases we really veered away from the book. What works well on the page doesn’t always work well on film. The location was challenging. Stephenie Meyer, who wrote the novels, set the honeymoon on an island in the middle of nowhere. Brazil is famous for its many islands down the coastline from Rio to Paraty. When you look out from the location where we shot, you don’t just see a horizon of water, as she wrote, but all these beautiful tropical islands. In the end it all worked out very well.

AD: What was it like on the set?

RS: Everyone had a good time. The three main actors are all very fun to work with. Kristen is quite serious. Rob and Taylor are a little bit wild. Rob and Kristen are actually a couple in real life. When he’s with her, he’s a little more restrained. When she’s not around, like most guys when their wives or girlfriends aren’t around, he’s a little looser. Taylor’s a kid—he’s 19—so he was bouncing all over the place.

A very Happy Sunday to everyone! This week we bring you an Edward and Bella themed video from leonorrd’s channel and is titled A Thousand Years and features A Thousand Years by Christina Perri.

This is such a beautiful Breaking Dawn video, with a great focus on the wedding that you could almost feel the jitters Bella felt and the pride the Cullens felt at having the favourite member of the family, Edward, finally tying the knot with the one he’s waited a hundred years for and adore with all his heart. The looks on Carlisle and Esme’s faces are just priceless!

It also touches on the stressful parts of the film but you could almost feel Bella’s optimism that she would pull through, especially when Christina Perri’s A Thousand Years playing in the background. The song has so much hope in it! And if you are like me, not had a chance to watch the film yet since it’s not arrived in your region, then this is just the video to tide you over until you do get a chance to watch the film we’ve been anticipating for the longest time. I can just watch this over and over!

What do you think of the video?
