There are a number of questions about how he managed to get her pregnant, including that Meyer said vampires don't have any human body fluids left when they turn--they're all basically replaced by the venom that turns another person into a vampire. (Not a direct quote, but the gist of it...in other words, yes, by her own rules, he should've been lacking a number of things that would lead to getting Bella pregnant!)

It was. And that can be a perfectly fine way to get story ideas, it's happened to me, but....serious execution fail.

Dreams can be used in a story, but I think in moderation. Otherwise, you're using raw subconscious material to etch a storyline that needs to make sense to the audience. That's kind of why I think Twilight failed in its execution. Even people who were obsessed with vampires looked at Twilight and said, "WTF is that?"

This thread, especially this most recent line of discussion, is making me very glad I never bothered with Twilight.

Quote from: KatieHal on September 28, 2010, 10:35:02 AMAll excellent questions, Enchantermon.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who's wondered about that.

Wait, what? So, not only should Bella not be pregnant, but she should be a vampire, too? That's a pretty big plot hole.
Though I suppose the necessary cells could be produced by the body after Eddie became a vampire and delivered in the poison...but that would still make Bella a vampire.
So what if I am, huh? Anyways, I work better when I'm drunk. It makes me fearless! If I see a bad guy, I'll just point my sword at him and saaaaaaaaaay, "Hey! Bad guy! You're not s'posed to be here! Go home or I'll stick you with my sword 'til you go, 'Ouch! I'm dead!' Ah-ha-ha!" Ha-ha. *hic* See? Ain't no one gonna be messin' wit' ol', Benny!

No, she just got a C-section by tooth.  :X

I thought this was after the C-section.  Bella demanded she hold her baby despite the fact all of her bones were shattering and was bleeding out, Edward gave it to her being the whipped p**** he is, and then it bit her nipple with its vampire teeth, finishing her off.

If these vampires technically are dead, they wouldn't be able to produce new cells or the necessary chemicals to sustain their bodies, let alone produce s**** cells or even get an erection.  I doubt blood cells have all of the necessary proteins to allow for cell reproduction, though depending on what the victim ate or what hormones was going through his/her body, that might provide enough nutrients.

I'm also curious about the animals that the Cullens suck blood from.  Would there be a bunch of vampire bears or something in the woods?  Or vampire deer?  Or vampire squirrels?
I have my cake and eat it too, until it's gone.  Then I can't do either.


Aww!  You have the Sword of Hugging +3!  All of your attacks deal affectionate damage!

KatieHal

By the end of the series, Bella IS a vampire. If we wanted to get technical, which...ew!, then by Meyer's logic, she probably should've already been one thanks to certain, um, actions taken. Also, I'm going to slap a spoiler warning on the title of this thread!

Ohh, yeah, it did bite her while trying to nurse, forgot about that. Ew. But the C-section obviously was before this part. God, that birthing scene was a bloody awful mess out of the worst horror movie ever! Seriously!

I think when they hunted for animals to drink from, they killed them outright. So probably no vampire bears. (ahh!)

Darn.  That actually would've been cool.

Wow.  :o

I was gone for most of the day and this is what I came back to.  I laughed my booty off reading all these Q/As!  It's interesting to view Twilight from people who don't understand the technicalities.  ;D

Ohhhhhhhh, I didn't know she ("it," LOL!) was trying to nurse.  Haha!  I thought she was biting her just to bite, since she IS, after all, half vampire.  'Cause Edward tells her, "No, Renesmee!" like he's scolding her for biting her mom.  Oh em freaking gee.  This discussion is making me laugh. *Wipes away tears*

It's a combination of "Renee" (Bella's mom) and "Esme" (Edward's mom.)   Her middle name is "Carlie," a combination of Charlie (Bella's dad) and Carlisle (Edward's dad.) :P

Yup. That happened.

Man, this is why I can't NOT go see the movies. Because OMG after going through reading it, hell yes, I have to see how they're going to make the clustermess that is Breaking Dawn into not just one movie, but TWO! (It's also why my friend & I who go see these together always have a few margaritas beforehand, too ;) )

If I were to ever watch these movies I'd need a few stiff ones first too! :drunk: I can't watch most books into movies.  Some words were never meant to be spoken, only written.  Most of the words in Twilight were definitely not meant to be spoken.  Ever.
