While we have a lot of great writers on Collider, I’ve decided to locate a Twilight super fan to review our copy of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 on Blu-ray.  I’m not looking for someone who thinks it’s the greatest movie ever made, and I’m not looking for someone who hates it either. I’m trying to find someone who loves the books and the films and can do an objective review while also writing about all the special features, commentaries, and the extra things on the Blu-ray.  If you think you’ve got what it takes, hit the jump:

While that November release of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 may seem like an eternity to die-hard fans, Summit has a treat in store for those heading out to pick up Breaking Dawn – Part 1 on DVD. In nearly 500 stores across the country, EW reports that Target will be hosting the world premiere of an exclusive scene from Breaking Dawn – Part 2 during the midnight DVD/Blu-ray release of Part 1. The clip will screen at 11pm at select stores as fans are waiting in line to pick up their copy of the first half of the finale.

This is a pretty ingenious decision on Target’s part, as the store ensures that most Twihards (and by golly there’s a lot of them) will choose Target as their Part 1 DVD source. In addition to the regular edition of the DVD/Blu-ray, Target will also be selling a Limited Collector’s Edition DVD that includes—deep breath—an authentic prop flower from Bella and Edward’s wedding scene. To find out if your local Target will be participating in the Part 2 clip premiere, click here. For the rest of you, The Twilight Saga comes to an end on November 16th.
