I was just thinking about the new New Moon poster again and can't help comparing to the one released for Twilight. There just seems to be such a great change in their relationship which can be seen in that one pic. They just seem so confident in where they stand with each other by this stage.
In Twilight's promotional pics, Bella seemed uncertain and tentative in how she holds on to Edward while Edward was more protective while also uncertain of how much strength to exert with Bella without scaring her away. There's also an aloofness in the way he stood with her, as though he does not want to get too close to her yet in case he needs to leave her.
This new one just has their love and self-assuredness in where they stand with the other, shouting to anyone watching that there could not be any doubt of their love, commitment and possessiveness for each other. The difference in Bella's stance is especially telling. She's showing a level of possessiveness that has never been present until the end of New Moon when she realized how much Edward loved her despite their differences and nothing would ever change that.
I just thought that Chris did an amazing job in showcasing this subtle nuance in the pic. It definitely shows how very much attuned he is to the characters. Suffice to say, I'm vastly impressed. Just thought I'd share my views on that. I am truly keen to see his adaptation of this movie. It really promises to be a huge, huge success.

as always you have a clear view on things and eye for detail my friend.. this photo knocked my socks off and I wnent "this says it all, this is the end of new moon where the bond ( that was allready unbreakable- but them not realizing)became solid, unbreakable and untouchable.
the first thing I noticed about the pic where edwards hands and the way he is holding her. but now that you mention bella's part in the pic I look at it with renewed interest!
Spot-on in your assessment, as always, mon ami. That pic is the epitome of the kind of bond most people would covet, No?
Still completely melts my heart..... *sigh* as always you.re so perceptive
