| ![]() I think the acting was HORRIBLE , I loved the movie but I think it was poorly done, I personally think for at least the first 5 minutes they should have set the sceen for the movie, maybe start a short briefing of when Edward Had malerai and show him getting bit, ( could have made it suspensful and not shown by who, then shown bellas life when she was little and her mom walking out, and why Bella had no relationship with her dad, just a quick briefing... then started the movie.... I think the acting was terrible, it could have been done wayyyyyyy better. JMO |

| ![]() I was most disappointed in Edward's sparkle in the movie. He was much sparklier in my head when I read the books. In the movie it just looked like he had a little glitter on him.

| ![]() I actually just watched the movie last night. I thought it could have been sooo much better. I like the premise of the movie , but it was just lacking in so many areas. It told to much about nothing and not enough about what you really needed or wanted to know. It could have been great , but IMO it came out mediocore at best. I really hope the follow up movies are done in a different directing style... the story needs to be told not skimmed over . I wanted to know more about where Edward came from. I wanted to know about the other vampires and I want to feel that Bella really liked Edward not just see her looking indifferent and bored by him. So many great characters and opprotunities but we were left hanging and I just felt like you didn't learn anything about anyone. I mean Edward is nice to look at but if he becomes nothing more than a face to keep your attention off the bad movie your watching , it would be a real shame.

| ![]() I thought the way Edward & Bella acted towards each other was awesome. I know there were several times through the movie, they had my heart pumping faster. I've just never been one to overly critique a movie like most do, I guess that's why I liked it.

| ![]() Most of the actors are fairly new... that is probably why it was not the greatest acting. Honestly I didn't notice the acting being 'bad' at all. I was not a HUGE fan of the movie, however I was glad (in this case) I read the book first. I think the movie helped me put more pictures in my head to keep pace with the book, but I think they were hand in hand and the movie does not stand too well on its own. I do have to say the further into the series I read the more bored with it I became. The fourth book took me a month to read. It was probably the best one but by that point I was sick of the whole 'we love each other sooooooo much' story. ah well... Im glad I saw it and read it, but Im not buying it.

| ![]() as of Saturday I have become a Twilight fan!! My friend went on and on about the movie when it first came out. It was not the type of movie I thought I would like-not into vampires or anything like that. Well she came Saturday with the movie and the hubs and I both really liked it-I was shocked! haha I went to Walmart bought 2 of the books and am getting ready to start them. I am really excited about them because books are almost always better than the movie! oh, and I also bought the movie to watch again after I read the book! ![]()

| ![]() Yay! Another addict. I've been following news on the New Moon movie on a site that has updates and pictures daily. It has a video and pictures of the set being used for Jacob's house, and pictures of the wolf pack. For anyone interested... newmoonmovie.org |

| ![]() Now that I saw the movie again after actually reading the books the movie didn't seem all that great. Don't get me wrong I still love the movie but I think it was missing what Edward and Bella were all about. They were so much in love in the book and I didn't really get that from the movie. And I think Robert Pattinson is hot as a vampire but I don't see him as Edward. But like I said I still love the movie and I hope the next one will be better. |

| ![]() I have to say that I'm "addicted". I had never heard of the books and didn't pay much attention when the movie came out. Then it happened, since I'm a big reader, my friend said she had a series for me to read. I started reading, then couldn't stop. I read all the books within a couple weeks. She then took me to see the movie about a month or so ago(we weren't even sure it would still be playing). I liked it, but was a little disappointed at the same time. I think, that I had imagined it a certain way, and it wasn't. I thought I read somewhere that they were limited in someways, because of budget. They shouldn't have that problem with the next one - which, I can hardly wait to see.

| ![]() If you haven't yet, read the Charlaine Harris books (Sookie series) and the Hamilton books (Anita Blake series). Lots of romance and vampires. ![]()

| ![]() I have been sick with the flu and my hubby went and rented me a bunch of movies Twilight being one of them. I didn't have much interest in seeing it so I watched it last. I loved it so much that I watched it two times in a row. It was like I couldn't get enough! (My own personal heroin! ![]()
