Ha!  I love good “Twilight” parodies and I’m glad to see one out for “Breaking Dawn”.  I’m looking forward to more to come.  Don’t forget that The Hillywood Show’s “Eclipse” parody will come out in the fall.

The action figures look pretty cool.  Edward doesn’t look as metrosexual as he did for the “Twilight” series and at least they gave Jacob a shirt this time.

I am really bummed that I couldn’t make it down to Chattanooga this weekend to stalk check out the movie set.  (Ha!)  It was no surprise that fans would go to NYC last summer during “Remember Me” filming.  I’m impressed that folks would drive to the countryside of Southeast Tennessee/North Georgia to try to catch a glimpse.  They are some dedicated fans!
