Major Twilight SPOILERS about the fate of Edward and Bella!

Before you read any further, be warned that this story will reveal future plot details to the final chapter of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn. So if something gets spoiled, that's on you! The story continues after this humor break...

I never read the Twilight books, but one of the things I've heard is that the ending of the final chapter is....well...a bit mild.  Not a lot of action, it consists mainly of the Cullen clan and the mysterious Vulturi(hopefully no longer mysterious at this point) arguing over the fate of Edward and Bella's child, Renesmee.

Someone who managed to read a copy of the Breaking Dawn script tells Celebuzz that a scene has been added to the conclusion that injects a bit more action and a whole lot of blood, including the "deaths" of some major characters....

"In the film as in the book, one of the climactic final scenes occurs when the Volturi confront the Cullens about (SPOILER) having born a half human/half vampire baby, Renesmee. The characters in the book talk their way to a happy ending, but in the movie, it reportedly goes something like this: Alice touches that head [ruling vampire party, Volturi] guy. When she touches the [Volturi] guy he ’sees’ what will happen if he continues his course. So, the first person whose head comes off is Carlisle. In the vision. Then everything goes to sh-t and all kinds of dying happens. And Bella and Edward kill Aro. Bella and Edward, they die too. All these other people die, too. Jane and her brother. Lots of deaths on both sides. Then the [Volturi] guy snaps out of it, says he’s sorry. Everybody makes up and lives happily ever after."

Dammit! Only a vision! But the fact that they felt the need to add this scene tells me that the rest of the film is going to be much like the rest of the franchise: lots of pale people standing around talking about stuff I could care less about.  Phooey.
