FearNet: 8 Things We Loved About the ‘Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ Trailer


The tent scene
Since this trailer’s all about action, we don’t really see much of the love triangle at the heart of the story. But we do get a brief glimpse of a scene between Bella and Jacob — he’s shirtless and it’s snowy, so this could be part of the famed “sleeping bag/tent scene” — which is laden with heavy emotional glances and shot in gorgeous natural-looking light with what looks to be a handheld camera, an element that promises to give parts of Eclipse a feel more akin to the intimacy of the first film.


The Cullens!

We were wondering when we’d get to see more of our favorite veggie vampire family, and the Eclipse trailer does not skimp. Carlisle and the gang show up to formulate their plans to figure out who’s creating the vampire army in Seattle, Alice has a nice close-up line of dialogue, and Jasper gets his moment to shine as he leads the clan in to battle with his Confederate Army know-how. (The fight in the clearing looks amazing.)


The newborn fight in the clearing

The biggest gift the final trailer gives us is the newborn fight, which should be the most action-packed moment in Eclipse. Slade’s vision of how it goes down is pretty thrilling, even in snippets — his camera rushes in as both sides, good vampires vs. evil vampires, run headlong into each other from the left and right. In the battle, a figure that looks like Alice runs toward a baddie and vaults out of the way just as one of the wolves grabs him. A wolf with reddish fur (is it Jacob?) tumbles with a vampire. Victoria, who’s evaded captors with her super speed in previous movies, shows off some new moves as she leaps from tree to tree in a forest chase.
