I liked the movie, there were a couple things that were changed from the book that I didn't like...like the fact that they didn't mention Jasper's talent...and a few parts of it were just a little bit cheesy. But for the most part I thought it was really good. The next one is already in the works, so I guess I'll start looking forward to and anticipating that now.

I saw the midnight show on the 21st and LOVED it! I have read all 4 books twice and am completely addicted to anything to anything Twilight related....lol I swear they sprinkled those books with crack...lol For those of you who plan to bypass the book for the movie...I suggest you read the book..it will help alot woth understanding the movie...and honestly the movie cut out alot of really great parts. They announced this morning that they definitely doing a followup movie so i am realy excited!!!

I feel I must confess I am not the averarge teen twilight reader I am a 26 year mother of 3...lol

Ditto on skipping the book...not a good idea. Having read the books 3 times now, I wasn't lost, but I can easily see where someone who hasn't read them might not understand what is going on in enough detail to fully appreciate it. There were alot of aspects that the movie didn't really portray in depth, but that you kind of had to just 'know' what was going on.

I on the other hand liked it, and my bf who has never read the books thought it was actually pretty good. I think my sister had too high of expectations though, whereas I just wanted it to be pretty accurate and have a good Edward character. The main thing that bothered my sister was the actress that played Bella. She really wasn't the greatest actor but she really grew on me and by the end of the movie I was actually happy with her as Bella. I loved Edward and I thought that Rosalies character was just terribly miscast. I knew there was no way it would even come close to the book but I think that they did a pretty good job.

Honestly i dont think she can act. She looked the part as Bella but the way she said her lines..she stuttered too much and didnt have much emotion. i dunno..just my opinion. But she is gorgeous and looked exactly how i thought bella would. I also agree with you about Rosalie, omg she looks nothing like rosalie was supposed to. She was supposed to be drop dead model gorgeous. but w.e. she played the role fine. I also think Carlisle did a good job, Emmet and Alice did great. She was very Alicy

When she was playing baseball, kicking her leg in the air, my mom even mentioned that and when she entered by walking on a tree branch...so her! I also think the guy that played charlie was good and rob did pretty good at edward also, just a little overdramatic at times. lol I didnt like the bad guys, james was pretty good but Victoria and the other guy, did not like them for those parts. I also think they need a new director..the movie wasnt put together too well. The camera was a little shaky and bad camera angles.

In the books I was not a huge fan of edward, I thought he was controlling, dramatic and moody. He was always mad about something and way too overprotective. But in the movie he was much more romantic and sweet, I really liked him in the movie!

I loved the graduation cap artwork in the house! Thats all I'll say but that was pretty funny!

I laughed a lot in the movie, I didnt remember the book being all that funny!

i didnt read book 4 yet. The story dragged on too long lol i will get around to it when i have time tho.yea the cap artwork was funny

They did not do the book justice, imho. Corny acting, forced dialog, and way too many looooooooooooooooooooooong "staring into each others eyes" sequences

James really cracked me up, he reminded me of a Yorkie in a way because he kept tilting his head

I think when the other movies get made and come out, I'll be waiting for them to come out on DVD.

lmao my bf was making fun of james in one part when he was running, he looked silly and not scary at all. It was corny, i think that has to do with the director of the movie.

i wish tim burton or steven spielberg would do it

I wish the Cullens had more camera time..they did leave a lot of things out. i dont think any of their powers were mentioned.

Edward's and Alice's were mentioned and shown a bit. Poor Jasper totally got left out. I have to agree though...I wish you'd seen more of the Cullens.

o yea nm they showed alice's and edwards. what was jasper's again? wasnt it that he can calm people down and did emmet have one?

Bhikku · 11-24-2008, 12:16 PM

I haven't seen this, but I don't think it looked very good. The dialogue was lifted straight from the book, but spoken aloud it sounded uber cheesy, lol...and I don't think that girl who played the lead can act from what I've seen.

The guy who plays Edward looks nothing like what I pictured after reading the book, so that's kind of weird...

However, I will say that I read the first Twilight book and totally heart it. So maybe I'll see the movie anyway...
