*FanVid* Edward & Bella - The Day We Met #TwilightForever

I got home, not long ago, after my third viewing of Breaking Dawn Part 2 and I still haven't the wherewithall to post a review for it. The emotions are still swimming around in my head. I can say that I loved it, it's perfect, and I don't want this to end.

One of my favorite moments is at the end when *spoiler alert* Bella lets Edward read her mind. When I got home I saw this video posted, and it so perfectly expands on that moment in the movie, and brought me to tears all over again.

The essence of The Twilight Saga, whether it be the movies or the books, is the everlasting love that Edward and Bella share. Whatever it is that brought you into this fandom, I guarantee that "truth" is at the core. I'm sure you will share in my opinion that this video really does justice to what we love about The Twilight Saga ... LOVE!!! Enjoy this & watch it over and over as I am.

A Thousand Years, Pt. 2 is the perfect soundtrack for their love, and I'm so glad that they did a second version for BD2, because I loved the first version and was not happy when it didn't make BD1. I was completely stoked at it's placement in BD2.

Get your kleenex, you'll need it. Sometimes memory lane just brings out the feelz, and after all, it's video's like this, the movies, the books, and the fan fiction that keep this story alive. #TwilightForever

*FanVid* Robsten Future - Newman & Robsten by libenet

I'll be honest, when I was first sent this video I thought, "Wow, that's a pretty big stretch, comparing the Newman's and Robsten." When I started the video, I was worried that it might somehow trivialize such an iconic Hollywood couple's successful marraige. I'm pleasantly surprised that I was dead wrong. If anything, I think this video celebrates the Newman's successful relationship, while expressing the somewhat uncanny similarities in expressions made by both couples. One can only wish any couple, including Rob and Kristen, such a
long-lastinglustful and loving relationship.

I won't deny that I really do love Rob and Kristen together. I think they are cute together, I love their protection for one another, how they speak about each other, and that they don't have to say a word because its all in the look. However, I also understand the challenges of a celebrity couple, and no one can deny that "the land where dreams are made" is often parallel to "the land where relationships/marraiges die". Having said that, I would be remiss to ever wish that on any couple in love. Every couple, even those who are famous, deserves happiness, just like the rest of us. I wish much happiness for Rob and Kristen and if that ends up being 50 years then what a celebration that would be.

This video made me cry, not only because it truly captures the Newman's love, something worthy of being cherished, but also because libenet arranged the similarities between the Newman/Robsten expressions spot on and beautifully.

Give it a chance, watch it and appreciate it for what it is ... a celebration of love.




I'd love to hear what you thought.
