Our “Twilight” marathon (finally) ends with the fifth installment in the franchise, “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2,” once again, directed by Bill Condon. With the release of “Spencer,” we went back to visit the film franchise that made Kristen Stewart a star along with her co-star Robert Pattinson. This was our fifth and final film in our marathon viewing from a few days ago, and you can tell we were drained and absolutely done with this franchise. A surprising third act brought us back to life, but not in the way we expected this mega-franchise would conclude. Take a listen one last time to hear our thoughts as we watch it for the first time, not knowing where any of it is going! We’ve already posted our commentary tracks for the first, second, third, and fourth films, which you can listen to as a preview on the site or entirely through our Patreon. Joining me once again are Nicole Ackman, Dan Bayer, guest Charlie Bright and popping in towards the end is a returning Eve O’Dea. So, our dear friends, grab yourself a cup of blood, fire up that Netflix account, and listen alongside us as we conclude our journey with Bella, Edward, and Jacob. Thank you to everyone who went on the journey with us!
