I'm not sure if I mentioned this on my blog before. Maybe I have. I can't remember and I'm too lazy to do a search. A few weeks (was it weeks already) my friends and I were talking about New Moon and one of them mentioned how she did not like the scene where a changed Bella and Edward were running in the woods. I agreed. I thought it was extremely cheesy, and really one that was not needed to be in the film. I may have been mistaken, but if I remember correctly, Alice did see a vision of a changed Bella, but it was never described what she actually saw. So I had always felt that it would have been better if they left it at...Alice had a vision of changed Bella. We DID not need to see what that vision was. Or if they really had to put one...give one that was better.
So basically the vision they had given us was a changed Bella and Edward, all in white with clothes that seemed to come for the early 1900's (funny right?) looking all smiley and happy running through this lush and green woods. And how do we know Bella's changed? She's paler than her usual self, her eyes are topaz and Edward actually looks happy instead of the usual constipated look he always have when he's around her. And so yes...like I said it was cheesy. I cringed. What's worst...I kinda have seen the same scene before. Young good looking lovers in white, early 1900s, running in some lush greenery. And oh there's the immortality part too. Yes it looked too much like a scene in Tuck Everlasting. Coincidence? Likely. Its just they could have done away with the whole thing...I definitely think it would have been better...to leave it as a guess...let us use our imagination...did Alice really have a vision, or did she cleverly disguise a make up story as a vision of the future? Or if she did see something, was it really rainbows and sunshine? Anyhow below are the stills of the scenes I was referring too.
