Twilight Toughts

We all knew the Twilight post would be coming so if you haven't seen it yet and don't want spoilers I suggest you skip the rest of this post.



Over all I was very happy with the movie. I thought the casting was good and it was very close to the book. I wasn't expecting to laugh as much as I did. When Bella first walks into the classroom and Edward looks like he's going to vomit, oh that was awesome. I also found the kitchen scene where Rosalie breaks the salad bowl because Bella already ate to be pretty funny. Alice being Alice and telling Bella "don't worry we're going to be good friends".

Jasper's face made me crack up. He looked terrified throughout the whole movie and I couldn't control myself when he had that Edward Scissor Hands look.

I thought Rob Pattinson was perfect as Edward. He gets the tortured emo look down well. I was totally fine with him ripping his shirt open and being all "look how my chest sparkles in the sun! You should be afraid! I'm a freak!"

The baseball scene was perfect and throwing "Supermassive Black Hole" in there durring that made it even better. I could watch vampire baseball for hours. Seriously.

I like Charlie in the movie better than in the book. He seems more human than the watch tv and go fishing guy in the book.

I was glad they cut out some of the cheese (oh there was still some cheese). I'm sure I would have rolled my eyes if they tried the Bella fainting around Edward crap like they did in the book.

I'm happy and will buy the DVD the second it comes out of course.

New Moon got the ok to be made into a movie. I'd have to say New Moon was my least favorite book but I'll still see the movie.

I am definitely buying the DVD too!

I think books 2 & 3 should be combined in the sequel - I really, really hated New Moon. Like, to the point that I wanted to stab myself.
