    Breaking Dawn Part 1 hasn’t opened in China or Japan yet? Wow, that is really surprising. Was it like this for the other movies? I wonder how much Japan and China will make for it, then.

    It is nice to know that I was a part of making this franchise’s money. I love supporting my favorite films! I really hope that Breaking Dawn Part 2 can surpass all past films. I am excited!

    I can’t believe BD hasn’t started showing in China & Japan. This great news, BD should have no problem surpassing NM’s #. I don’t about Chinese fans, but Japanese fans love their Twilight, just like us. Yay, for Twilight.

    Well, “Twilighter’s ” We did it!!!!  Our love and devotion to these wonderful, talented actors, all involved and this beautiful love story, the “Twilight” saga (sorry Rob, I know you don’t like it referred to as, Saga) Anyway, we all contributed to the success of this endeavour.  Probably the easiest and most enjoyable task I have had in my lifetime, is going countless times to all of Robert & Kristen’s movies………….having to admit, The “Twilight” movies are my favorites, even though I have gone to all of their other films either on screen or DVD.
    >>>FYI: Don’t miss Peter/Carlisle’s movie………… ”Loosies”

    One thing I know, TeamEdward_Bella4ever, your countless attendence at Breaking Dawn 1, and other fan’s such as yourself, made it happen….YOU GO GIRL!!!!
