I liked it. I agree about the hair dresser.

The Volturi did know. I don't know if it's talked about in Eclipse, but they definitely clear it up in The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. After having read that though, they did make a couple of changes that kind of irked me, but overall it was worth the 2 hours for me. I think Dakota Fanning did a much better job in this film too.

they did know, which is why they killed her.

Loved the tent scene, but mad they left out the "top ten nights" line.

I am solidly Team Jake, but put a shirt on!!!

No drive up to the party? No Emmett and Alice conspiring with Jake, each of their noses scrunched up to lessen the smell? boo. .

And they left out the most important part of Rose's story: little Henry.

The fight scenes made up for it though. And Leah!!

Got home last night, and just looked it up (really enjoyed the movie, kept thinking about things "moved" out of sequence between the movie and book, but still enjoyed it).

From pg. 577:

"Well, it appears that there's not much left for us to do. Odd," Jane said, apathy creeping back into her voice. "We're not used to being rendered unnecessary..."

(Edward) "...It's a shame you didn't arrive just a half hour earlier. Perhaps then you could have fulfilled your purpose here."

Jane met Edward's glare with unwavering eyes. "Yes. Quite a pity how things turned out, isn't it?"

Edward nodded once to himself, his suspicions confirmed.

So while it doesn't come right out and state that the Volturi knew, I think it was definitely implied in this passage
