Still under that false impression

As usual, my reaction to the movie is, right now, probably made up of mostly exclamation points, caps lock. And a lot of aldsjfldfj;la;oeifja;sldkfja;sldfja

First things first - I've never made any bones about the fact that Breaking Dawn is my favorite of all four Twilight books. I can now confirm that the movies just made me love the story that much more. Do I think it was Great Literature? No. But the story was good, engaging, fun, etc.

Bill Condon....took that great story and made it so much better.

(*also, please keep in mind that I got home at 2.30 am from Richmond, and am now up to go into work before an afternoon of rewatch)

I will probably add more to this as I remember and when I'm not rushing ass to get out of the house to get Zach to school and get myself to work.

In short, an amazing finish.

I went to the marathon yesterday and it was completely awesome to watch the whole thing, start to finish, in a theater setting.

One last note

I'm now officially without an active fandom. I left Harry behind a few years before the active canon ended, Twilight's active canon concluded with the end of the foreign premieres today.

I was never a part of the Hunger Games fandom, though I'm still looking forward to the movies. If there was an active fandom for The Host, or the Dark Hunters, or Armstrong's Darkest Powers series, I've never found them.

I don't see many things being pimped around much because their aren't many comms on DW and I don't see many on my flist there talking about fandoms. LJ used to be the place to find that stuff, but I've notice a lot of LJ peel-off in the last two years or so.

This makes me kind of sad. Especially since Goodreads is a terrifically crap place to talk about books.
