There is a slaughter going on in Seattle. Somebody is killing off lots and lots of ordinary citizens. The good vampires of Forks are concerned about it but don&#8217;t quite know what to do.<\/p>\n<p>While they are concerned the mopestress Bella is mooning and moping over Edward. She is at the same time teasing poor old Jacob, or he is teasing her or I don&#8217;t know what is going on. Edward finally asks Bella, &#8220;Doesn&#8217;t he have a shirt?&#8221; Meanwhile Bella is trying to seduce Edward. He finally has to say, &#8220;Bella, would you please stop trying to take your clothes off?&#8221; So I think the real romantic story in the movie is Edward and Jacob. Yep, you read it here first. But I&#8217;m not going to spoil it for you, go see the movie yourself and tell me what you think.<\/p>\n<p>I mean really, why is Edward wasting his time on teen age moper doper Bella, when he could have a woman.<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/Eclipse-Victoria.jpg\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"301\" src=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/Eclipse-Victoria-300x225.jpg\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Yeah, Victoria. You know Bella got her boyfriend killed so Edward would just have to hand over little miss useless to Victoria and she would be forever grateful. I think Victoria is a million times hotter than Bella. What do you think? C&#8217;mon Edward wake up, scrape Bella off, she is no good for you.<\/p>\n<p>And Bella, what&#8217;s wrong with Jacob? At least he is alive and better looking. Plus Bella, what are you doing proclaiming passionate love for Edward but then cuddling up to Jacob every chance to get and then acting shocked when he thinks you like him. Oh, I just plain don&#8217;t get it. You know they should have let Tom Clancy write the screenplay. He knows whats what. Know something else, Sharon Stone would make a great Bella. She put a little oomph in the role.<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/eclipse-amphibious-landing.jpg\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"286\" src=\"http:\/\/yogisden.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/eclipse-amphibious-landing-300x214.jpg\" width=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>But hey, there is lots of action in the movie to save it from the lame romantic parts. The best part is a vampire amphibious invasion that would have made General Douglas MacArthur proud. A few of these guys and the WWII would have been over a lot sooner. After the invasion there is some great vampire\/werewolf battle scenes. They&#8217;ll make you want to go see the Lord of the Rings trilogy again.<\/p>\n<p>The movie is not too bad. I give it three stars out of four.<\/p>\n<p>Hey, can anybody tell me if the book is any good or is it a waste of time. I need to know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The other day Sweetie and I loaded up and went off to see Eclipse. I was smart this time. I didn&#8217;t read the book!
