The Twilight era is over, and it went out with a bigger bang than I anticipated. I wasn't very excited to see this final movie of the epic series. I was not a fan of the first installment of Breaking Dawn and I honestly was not sure how well the second half would translate to the big screen. I was pleasantly surprised to find this adaptation veered away from the book just enough to give the movie an interesting twist (with an audible gasp from theater goers) and a lot of action. I was amply entertained throughout, unlike with other Twilight movies.
So, what does this mean for fan boys and girls? The last installment of Twilight has hit the theaters and most if not all Twi-Hards have seen it already. I guess they'll just have to wait for the next thrilling supernatural book series to take the world by storm. There's Hunger Games with at least two more movies to go, but that series appeals to a slightly different audience. However, those who subscribed to the fight over Team Edward and Team Jacob will at least have Team Peeta or Team Gale. I'm sure the Twilight series will continue to be loved and adored by fans and will earn a place in cinematic history, if not just as a kitschy cult classic series. ABC Family will glom onto the movies and air them ad nauseam just as they did with the Harry Potter movies, however I believe the Harry Potter movies hold a more dear place in the hearts of many.
