As usual - I'd like to remind everyone that this picspam has to be taken with an open mind. It's not necessarily about shipping Dream Team or whoever, this picspam is more about how I envisionned the book the first time I read it and bringing my imagination to life. So if you can't keep an open mind about it, you are welcome to click the X button at the top right corner of your screen.
Now onto the picspam... ENJOY! ♥

~Dream Team edition~
 | Chapters: Preface. Party 1st row: "I wasn't running for my life; I was racing to save something infinitely more precious.

Me—ancient, creased, and withered." 3rd row: Bella wakes up, Charlie gives her a camera for her birthday, Bella sees Edward in the parking lot. 4th row: Edward & Bella watch Romeo & Juliet together in her living room. Edward envies Romeo for the ease of suicide. He explains the Volturi. |
 | Chapters: Party. Stitches. The End. 1st row: The birthday party goes wrong. 2nd row: The last night Edward sleeps over. "Suddenly his lips became much more urgent, his free hand twisted into my hair and held my face securely to his." 3rd row: Edward is being distant. Charlie takes a picture of Bella & Edward. "The last was the picture of Edward and me standing awkwardly side by side." |
 | Chapters: The End. 1st row: The break up, "You… don't… want me?" 2nd row: "You can go on with your life without any more interference from me. It will be as if I'd never existed." 3rd row: Love, life, meaning… over. 4th row: Bella is taken back home. Half of the picture is missing | "The album Renee had given me sat on the floor beside the bed, just where I'd put it last. I lifted the cover with a shaking hand." |
 | Chapters: October/November/December/January. Waking Up. Cheater. 1st row: October. November. December. January. 2nd row: "Time passes. even when it seems impossible." / Charlie talks to Bella about her zombie-mode. 3rd row: Port Angeles, first Edward hallucination. "My muscles locked into place, froze me where I stood. It was his voice." 4th row: The recurring nightmares | "When I realized that there was nothing to search for, and nothing to find. That there never had been anything more than just this empty, dreary wood, and there never would be anything more for me… nothing but nothing… That was usually about when the screaming started." |
 | Chapters: Cheater. Friends. Repetition. Adrenaline. 1st row: Bella takes the motorcycles at Jacob's place. 2nd row: Spending the day with Jacob, "We bantered like that till Hoquiam, still arguing over the correct formula to determine age" 3rd row: "The house was there, but it was not the same. Though nothing had changed on the outside, the emptiness screamed from the blank windows. It was creepy. For the first time since I'd seen the beautiful house, it looked like a fitting haunt for vampires." 4th row: Bella sees Sam Uley & the pack cliff diving. 5th row: Jacob explains how to ride the motorcycle | "This is reckless and childish and idiotic, Bella," the velvet voice fumed. 6th row: The motorcycle accident. |
 | Chapters: Third Wheel. The Meadow. 1st row: Bella & Jacob go to the movies. They talk in the car "I know how you're unhappy a lot. And, maybe it doesn't help anything, but I wanted you to know that I'm always here. I won't ever let you down." 2nd row: Jacob's change.

She dreams of Jacob that night. 3rd row: Bella tells Jacob she knows about his secret. He takes her to the pack and she sees Jacob transform before her eyes. "It happened so quickly that if I'd blinked, I'd have missed the entire transformation." 4th row: Bella & Jacob's talk in the car | "It hurts to think about them," I whispered. "It's like I can't breathe… like I'm breaking into pieces…"It was bizarre how much I could tell Jacob now. We had no more secrets. |
 | Chapters: Pressure. Paris. 1st row: Cliff diving scene | "Don't do this," he pleaded. You wanted me to be human, I reminded him. Well, watch me. 2nd row: "Fight!" he yelled. "Damn it, Bella, keep fighting." Why? I didn't want to fight anymore. I saw him, and I had no will to fight. 3rd row: Why would I fight when I was so happy where I was? I was content. I'd forgotten what real happiness felt like. Happiness. It made the whole dying thing pretty bearable. The iron bar seemed to be dragging me, pulling me away from Edward, deeper into the dark, to the ocean floor. Goodbye, I love you was my last thought. 4th row: "I tried to open my eyes. It took me a minute. Jacob's face blocked out the sky." |
 | Chapters: Paris. Visitor. The Funeral. 1st row: "Could I betray my absent heart to save my pathetic life? Butterflies assaulted my stomach as I thought of turning my head. And then, as clearly as if I were in immediate danger, Edward's velvet voice whispered in my ear. "Be happy," he told me.I froze. Jacob felt me stiffen and released me automatically." 2nd row: A Cullen's car | "Alice, oh, Alice!" I cried, as I slammed into her. 3rd row: Alice & Charlie talk, "It's not normal. Alice, and it… it frightens me. Not normal at all. Not like someone… left her, but like someone died." His voice cracked. | Jacob & Bella almost kiss + The phonecall. 4th row: "It was Edward." The words were just a choked whisper. "He thinks you're dead." | Bella leaves for Italy. |
 | Chapters: Hate. Volterra. Verdict. Flight. 1st row: "Sheesh, Alice," I complained. "Could you pick a more conspicuous car to steal?" | Bella arrives at the principal plaza. 2nd row: "It was really him, no hallucination this time." Bella sees Edward. | "I'd never seen anything more beautiful—even as I ran, gasping and screaming, I could appreciate that. And the last seven months meant nothing. And his words in the forest meant nothing. And it did not matter if he did not want me. I would never want anything but him, no matter how long I lived." 3rd row: Bella jumps into his arms | "Amazing," he said, his exquisite voice full of wonder, slightly amused. "Carlisle was right." 4th row: The Volturi. Jane mind-tortures Edward. 5th row: "La tua cantante". | Edward & Bella sit together, "It was heaven—right smack in the middle of hell." |
 | Chapters: Flight. The Truth. Vote. 1st row: In the airplane "his fingers tracing my face again and again." 2nd row: "I opened my eyes again—and Edward was still there, his perfect face just inches away from mine." "Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars—points of light and reason… And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn't see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything." 3rd row: "If you stay, I don't need heaven." He got up slowly, and came to put his hands on either side of my face as he stared into my eyes. "Forever," he vowed, still a little staggered. "That's all I'm asking for," I said, and stretched up on my toes so that I could press my lips to his. Fade to moon. Credits roll. The End. |
Incase you've missed it
Part 1 | The Alternate Twilight Movie
And there you have it! I think i've added almost every scene possible except for a very few that weren't necessary to the storyline. I skipped "the vote" scene because I felt it not necessary for this picspam. I also didn't add the epilogue because I personally think the book ends nicely at chapter 24. Jacob being a douche about the motorcycle thing was not a necessity in this picspam (that said by someone who actually likes Jacob, FYI). I've taken the liberty to add some minor changes here in there for better visual interpretation like Bella actually taking a peek inside the Cullens house, Edward ripping his half of the picture, etc. Very exhausting picspam to make but way too fun. It's so difficult to find every right screencap that fit with the feeling you're going for - matching expressions, scenery or whatnot.. but in the end you see the result and you're pretty shocked at how realistic it all looks considering that these 3 actors have never worked in anything together. All in all, I hope I succeded in showing with this picspam the mystery, heart-twisting emotion and intimate feeling the books gave me when I read them.
Screencaptures used for this picspam are: The existing New Moon movie. Emily Browning in "The Uninvited", "A Series of Unfortunate Events" and "Ghost Ship". Gaspard Ulliel in "Le Premier Cercle" (Inside Ring), "Le Dernier Jour" (The Last Day), "Jacquou Le Croquant" (Jacquou The Rebel) and "Hannibal Rising". Steven Strait in "The Covenant" and "Undiscovered". And of course some screencaps from other random movies for scenery and special shots.

I love Gaspard.. he should be Edward :( i really don't like very much Robert as Edward...
July 21 2010, 19:28:35 UTC 1 year ago
But it was well worth it, it was really a joy to look at.
Also yay, for not only replacing Edward and Bella, but Jacob too. Steven would be PERFECT as Jake.
