Not overtly, but some of Edward's statements about watching her sleep will doubtless be triggering to some survivors.

No, but there are constant allusions and metaphors comparing Bella's blood compatibility to Edward's "own personal brand of heroin." He also says to her that she's "like a drug to [him]."

The opening scene of the film shows a deer being hunted by the vampires. You don’t see it die, but it is caught just as the scene ends.

The beginning scene shows a vampire catching a deer but the deer isn’t shown to suffer or die on camera. The Cullens’ hunting of animals is discussed but not shown on camera

James, a vampire is torn apart and burnt. As he is a vampire, he is technically alive when this is happening to him. You don’t necessarily see it, as it’s going on in the background. You simply see a fire.

Yes, through the entire series both in books and movies we hear outdated terms for the families who live on the reservation, have stereotypes emplaced on them, and I think the worst of all is that the author based everything off of an existing tribe.

Sorta, Edward is supposedly like 118 years old or something because he’s a vampire and he’s dating Bella who is like 16 but I wouldn’t consider that since they’re both of the same physical age if that makes sense
