The Twilight Saga: Eclipse premiered in theaters in 2010. The movie is the third movie of the Twilight franchise, and it’s based on Eclipse, the third book of Stephanie Meyer’s book series. Eclipse and Breaking Dawn Part 2 are (vampire joke incoming!) neck and neck for me. I think you could move either one into second place, and I’d be okay with that ranking. For me, Eclipse is the second-best of the Twilight movies.
Eclipse is where it all goes down between Edward and Jacob! It’s a big love triangle in this movie, but it’s more love for Edward and more friend feelings for Jacob from Bella. In Eclipse, there’s unfinished business from the first movie. Victoria (Bryce Dallas Howard) is building an army of vampires to take revenge on Bella and the Cullens. The threat forces Edward and the Cullens and Jacob and the Quileute tribe to work together to stop Victoria and protect Bella.
Eclipse is easily one of the best of the Twilight movies. It created so much momentum heading into the final stories, but it was followed by Breaking Dawn Part 1, which we’ve already established is bad.
Up next is the first movie of the Twilight franchise!
