And here we go! TWL live from Comic-Con at the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 panel, featuring stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, and others...Eric Moro of Wikia.com is moderating.


David Glanzer, director of PR and Marketing for Comic-Con, begins by making a few kind remarks about the fans and specifically the Twilight fan who passed away earlier this week.


Classy move, Comic-Con.


1:01 p.m. Moro: "This will be the final appearance at Comic-Con for the Twilight crew."

1:02 p.m. Moro intros Taylor Lautner, Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Mackenzie Foy (who plays Renesmee), and Twilight author Stephenie Meyer.


1:04 p.m. Shows first 7 minutes of Breaking Dawn Part 2.


First 7 minutes synopsis: Bella awakes, sees Edward, hunts a deer, gets distracted by a human, ends up not eating him, drinks a mountain lion, then returns home to greet Jacob.

1:12 p.m. Stewart: "I'm so excited to break (Bella) in. How fast the car goes. How her powers are amplified. I love her. I think she's the coolest (vampire)."

1:14 p.m. Pattinson: "It's great to finally be the same temperature as Bella."

1:15 p.m. Lautner: "In this one, (Jacob) really has a huge weight off his shoulders. It was fun to play. It was great to see Kristen change gears perfectly...extremely impressive. She did a great job."

Robert Pattinson caused 45 minutes of non-stop squeals, which thankfully

1:16 p.m. Foy: "I think all of the cast is pretty cool."

Moro cues up another clip. Stewart: "It's when Charlie sees me for the first time, and I have to act human."

1:18 p.m. Moro welcomes more cast members to the stage: Peter Facinelli, Elisabeth Reaser, Nikki Reed, Kellan Lutz, Ashley Greene, and Jackson Rathbone.

1:20 p.m. Moro asked for favorite memory from all the films.

1:21 p.m. Facinelli: "Bonding with the cast. They've really become family to me."

1:22 p.m. Reaser: "The first movie was the most fun, and kind of wild. And scary and weird. My favorite scene, which got cut, where Peter and I had a little make-out sesh."

1:23 p.m. Reed: "I can't single out one specific event. To watch all these people grow...we were all kids when we started, and it's cool to walk away from this growing with people."

1:26 p.m. Rathbone: "We've got the greatest fans in the world."

Moro opens up to questions from fans.

1:27 p.m. Fan: "If you were to attend Comic-Con for fun, who would you dress up as?" / Stewart: "Evil queen from Snow White." / Pattinson: "General Zod."

1:29 p.m. Meyer: "I'm burned out on vampires."

1:31 p.m. Fan: "Was there a moment in filming that you thought, 'I wish I could stay in this moment forever?'" / Stewart: "My wedding was beautiful. I'm so proud of Bill."
