UPDATE:
GossipCop "With news that Breaking Dawn is being adapted into two films also comes word that Summit is definitely considering doing the fourth and fifth pictures in 3-D."
Mr. Condon, I want this - Breaking Dawn: Isle Esme (yep, 2 hours of that, just that!) and Breaking Dawn 2: The Cottage.
And you will be worshipped for a lifetime. lol
