A cast list for THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE appears at the end of this document.
In THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE, Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger as Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob — knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella is confronted with the most important decision of her life."

I think that this will be a screw up, as most of the second half of the book is a blood bath. Good luck shooting, guys. Also, The special effects rock, but not very realistic.

ReplyDeleteI personally can not wait for the tent scene! the best part of the series by far! and i've swapped allegience to Team Jacob!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think that the tent scene was by far my favorite part of the book. I almost thought that Bella was going to choose Jacob instead! I can't wait to see how it turns out in the movie.
