I was watching movie few days ago and this thought came to me. Imagine how that could happen and if really James had so much time? Did he already plan this or the plan grew in him when he saw family video collection? Anyway, imagine, they probably had lots of family videos and didn't he just went through all the videos! Of course vampires are fast but they can't affect other things to move faster as they do lol I mean he could forward the tape but then he couldn't hear the sound and the sound was the most important here.

I probably does not make any sense in here I just can't imagine James going through hours of family videos and did he have so much time for that anyway?

ive thot of that too but maybe since vamps can concentrate on more than one thing he could plan out everything while listening to the tapes too

alice saw him in a dark room at first remember? im sure rene had the videos labeled... it probably didnt take much for him to find one that would work.

nah im pretty sure the dark room was bella's house. cause when bella woke up the next day jasper told her that something brought him back to the dark room, but it was light this time... and it was bella's mom's house.

well... im sure that might NOT be how renee would have acted, but apparently it worked. maybe it was just a gamble... it might NOT have worked, but it did and thats what really matters

LOL, Lazzy! I love that. I never actually thought about it, but that'd be so funny.

James sat on the couch, annoyed by the slow pace of the movies. "Dammit! Why can't one human move fast? And she looks like an elephant trying to tap dance when she walks."

LMAO! Okay, sorry. Couldn't resist.

the thing that is funny is...how can Alice not have seen James plan that? She can see what people are gonna do when they decide it, and when James thought..."oh hey, let me get a video tape of Bella, and go to her house, and yadda yadda" how can she have not seen that James was planning to get Bella alone? He didnt know that Alice had that gift, or what her limitations were...hmmmmmmmmm

well, her vision is not always correct, BUT she has no problem seeing future possibilities at all. Like i just got done reading Eclipse again, and she narrowed down the time the Volturi were going to come perfectly, down to the seconds! And when Edward was in Italy, she could see everything his mind planned, and she even saw Bella becoming a vampire in Twilight...how can she see that far into the future, but not see James call Bella, or wait for her in the studio, or see that he went to her house and Victoria went to her school and stuff??

AND one more thing, while i was reading Eclipse, i was suddenly sooo annoyed!! How can Bella NOT know that it was Victoria who was creating the army of newborn vampires?!?! its like....did you just forget about her or something? victoria is still out there!!! why wasnt she even a possibility?! haha i just thought that was stupid...like really, she was just hunting you a few weeks ago, and you forget all about her...lol

haha the eclipse thing has always pissed me off. they should have, at the very least, narrowed it down to victoria or the volturi right away!

haha well with the newborn thing, i think it helped because they knew what they were going to do and were on a direct path. with edward in volterra he wasnt sure what he was going to do so it kept changing, but once he decided on walking out into the sun she knew it would happen at noon. and i think that the only reason she saw bella becoming a vampire in TWILIGHT was because of the james thing, it was kind of like a decision that hadnt happend yet was going to cause her to become a vampire... like irina and the volturi in breaking dawn? and in new moon she DIDNT see bella becoming a vampire any more, but in eclipse she saw it again because at the end of new moon bella made sure that SOMEONE would change her. that probably made no sense.

i think that with all the james stuff that alice probably DID see most of it... (no the phone call i guess...) but she didnt connect the dots quickly enough.

i think that alice would have seen him if he would have changed his mind but he didnt CHANGE it he could have thot it in the back of his mind while picking his location... alice would have been to busy concentrating on the place and not how he would get her there


and about the dark room... alice says "the trackers changed course" jasper says " what do you see" alice- a dark room with mirrors..... jasper hand her paper and a pen and she draws the ballet studio

umm no. thats the movie.

she sees the ballet studio and they know its a ballet studio. but alice also sees him in a dark room watching something, and then when bella gets off the phone with edward jasper tells her that something took him back to the dark room with the vcr. and then thats when bella recognizes it as her house.

lol i thot we were relating it to the movie

LOL! lazzy i missed your point the first time i read this XDDD. i can just picture james slouched back on the couch with his feet up on the coffee table.

Oh god Lazzy xDDD how do you come up with those things?

I can see it from Laz's description too.

maybe one of the videos were labeled " where did bella go " or "bella where are you" lol
