Oh my god. Breaking Dawn Part 1 is the worst movie I've ever seen in my entire life. The book is also wildly rough. Oh my god, I... Wildly rough. I remember reading this book. I was probably like...

I feel like I now I can't remember breaking down part two, at least like the movie, because when we were watching this, I was like, oh, wow, I don't remember like any of this. I specifically didn't remember that Edward delivers the baby via his teeth. Yeah. Which is hard to forget. It's wild. I think that was actually a trauma response. Yeah, for sure.

Chapter 2: What are the main critiques of Breaking Dawn: Part 1?
I think that was in a box somewhere in the deep back part of my brain. Yeah, your brain really protected you there. But now I'm like, oh God, what are, what's going to happen when we do part two? Part two just has a lot of funny lines in it and line deliveries. Okay. And then there's like a pretty cool fight scene. I'm pretty sure if I remember correctly. There is a cool fight scene.
And I remember, I don't know why we're getting like into part two right now, but I do remember that Bella has that like force field thing she can do.
Oh yeah.

Chapter 3: How do the characters' relationships impact the story?
So obviously in a lot of these things, we find that Stephanie Meyer goes against her own lore that she created. Because the illustrated guide will say something, the book will say something, the movie will say another. And then they all collide into just like a fucking crazy thing.
Now, in the illustrated guide, she says, Stephanie Meyer says that she understands that people won't accept or get the whole vampires and humans having babies. Like that would be like, wait, what? Well, yeah. Because you've never brought it up before. Yeah. like immortal children have been brought up, but that's like a different thing.
That was like when they were creating human children, baby and out of like kids. Yeah. Which is so, so what kills me is she says, but to her, her, and I quote scientific reasoning is enough for her. Huh? Was she doing experiments?
scientific reasoning should do the scientific method on this nothing about this and here's here's again where it doesn't make so you say whoa okay so you're science we're science here that's now science in case everybody's wondering is based in reality yes right we're firmly in reality right now because by her own words here we are two feet in reality okay
So she says she went against her own previously set up lore, obviously, because like, you know, that happens. And instead of saying like, you know, cause I would respect this. If she said, I wanted this plot point, you know, I felt like it was going to be a good direction. It felt important to me. It goes against the lore, but like, I just went there because it was really important to go here.
She's like making it canon. Yeah. I can at least respect that, that you're saying, you know what, I'm going against my own lore, but it's important. And I think it's going to be worth it. Yeah. But instead, she says first that her scientific reasoning is enough for her for this to work. And then she says, guys, it's fantasy. Vampires are real. Oh, boy. She really said fuck y'all.
So you just told me... With 10 toes down in the realm of reality that it's based on scientific reasoning. And then in the next breath, you say to me, you believe in vampires? That's so cute. You idiot. That's so cute. You fucking freak. Like, it's just like, what? What? And she's like, no, I can make it up as I go along because it's fantasy.
And it's like, no, I know that you make the world and that you can make it whatever you want. But then you have to follow your own rules. But the problem is you made lore. And not only did you make lore, you made an illustrated guide. That you didn't need to make. I think she might forget that she made that. You made this illustrated guide that no one made you do.
Because there's also another big thing that happens with Jacob. There's a few. Yeah. That's glaring issues. That one is glaring to me. Yeah. And it's such an easy out to say. It's fantasy. Yeah. Vampires aren't real. It's like, but you made this. And it's like, but also...

Chapter 4: What themes of misogyny are explored in the episode?
I mean, he's beautiful. Yeah, he's gorge. And I'm not saying he's ugly in the later ones, but his hair. No, no, no. His hair. Here's the thing. His hair looks ugly. It does. It's not good. And I'm willing to say that because it's not his hair. It's not good in this one. It's, like, straw... Like, what did you say? Straw yellow? It's, like, straw yellow. Like, hay? And it's, like, parted...
over to the side but not like quaffed at all it's just like mushroom hanging in his face it's giving mushroom it just doesn't make any sense and then jasper's hair who fucking knows what's going on with that jasper's hair is crazy i saw a couple tiktoks of him hosting like twilight discussion things and he's really funny yeah like the the actor who plays jasper uh he's played by jackson rathbone yeah see no
I was like, wait, I figured it out. No, that's just the character name. That was hilarious. I was very impressed. I should have just gone with it. But yeah, one of the... Going back to what you were saying, one of the things, because I'm like, they're all supposed to be frozen, because also, where...
are the wigs from season from movie to movie okay that's what i was asking like that's like where'd you put them even mikey has a wig drawer yeah that's the thing we're not a production company and mikey has the same wigs in that drawer 24 7. rosalie's wig who has it from the first movie where'd it go i don't know where is it mikey is opening his wig drawer yeah that wig looked so scary that's that's the sherry moon zombie wig
From when I was Chermoon. From when I was Chermoon. Oh, my God. There you go. Honestly, that looks like one of the Cullen's wigs. That is Rosalie's wig. But I really want to know, if you're out there and you have those wigs, where did you put them? Where are they? Where are they? Because they change every movie. No, that's true. Like, there's no chain of custody for these wigs.
There's no chain of custody for anything. Because also, Alice's hair in the first movie is, like, super, super, like, not super long, but it's, like, longer. Yeah, it's like a fuck-ass bob. And then it gets cut, and then it's, like, long again, and then it's cut, and I'm like... But their hair's not supposed to grow.
That's the thing, and I'm like, when you cut it into a pixie, you're committing to that. Because that's your hair. I love Alice's hair at the wedding. I do, too. The way she, like, sculpts it onto her face. She did the little... It's very, like, 20s. Yeah, I love it. I really did love that. But Alice in this movie pisses me off. Alice? And she's a creep. She's a creep!
Alice does kind of piss me off. Alice is a creep. Because she... Everything is her way or the highway. The whole wedding. She plans the whole thing, which I realize like the whole thing is supposed to be like, well, Bella doesn't want to and she doesn't like this stuff. And I'm like, but honestly... Then why is she getting married and having a huge wedding?
Well, and honestly, I don't even think she's ever given a chance to. No, it's true. She doesn't even get a chance to say no. Because... As I've said many times before, she is baby girl. She is baby girl. She is so baby girl. So baby girl. I got a bone to pick with Bella. She's a selfish motherfucker. She is a selfish motherfucker. Honestly, the poor Cullen family. Yeah. The poor Cullen family.
