The Twilight Saga

[Cerise]

Ohh, we're rating the? Cool

Twilight - 4/5. It was great, and it did drive me into this obsession, but Bella just gets a tiny bit annoying with all her "ooohh Edward..." crap And it doesnt have the best re-readability of all four (Although I#ve read it about... twenty something times?)

New Moon - 5/5. Any book that can cause me to burst into tears on public transport while rereading it for then tenth time is definitely a keeper. I loved the story, the way it was written, it was just amazing.

Eclipse - 3.5/5. Again, yes, it was great. But Because I am Team More jacob than Edward I couldn't stand the whole mushiness and then what she did to Jacob. Good story though.

Breaking Dawn - 3.5/5. Many people will call this book an Epic Fail. Pfft. Renesmee is the Epic Fail. I don't think I need to say much more.

I'm a bit confused. I'm re-reading Twilight. Apparently, Rosalie and Jasper are twins. If so, how was Rosalie in New York and how was Jasper in Texas???

[Barbara]

^ Twins? I don't remember that. Are you sure? I thought Alice was the one who found Jasper.

I saw the movie yesterday. It was released on Nov 26 here.

I thought it was really good. I'm usually disappointed when I watch a movie based on a book. Sure, some scenes were rushed (especially at the beginning of the movie) but I liked it.

My favourite scene is definitely

the baseball game

! It was so fun to watch!

Like some of you already said, Jacob's wig was . I love the Cullens. My favourites are Alice, Emmett and Rosalie. Love Rosalie's attitude towards Bella!

Kristen and Rob did a great job. I still don't think Rob is the hottest actor ever but after seeing the movie, I do think he's handsome. I prefer Cam Gigandet in The OC; he's not so handsome in Twilight.

My sister went to see it with me. She also liked it even though she never read the books. She didn't think it was confusing. She's considering reading the books.

Rosalie and Jasper pretend to be Twins because they look so alike. Tehy agreed to go under Rosalie's last name, Hale

[Cal]

Oh! Okay! I was reading it and I was like "Wtf?! How does that make sense?!"

Glad you liked it, Barbara! It's released here on December 19th. I don't think I'll go because nobody will go with me to see it... And I don't want to go on my own. So I'm funding the movie in different ways such as buying the Soundtrack and a few t-shirts.

I didn't know Nikki Reed played Rosalie on the movie. She wrote the script for Thirteen when she was in high school. She had to drop out of high school because parents were coming in to the school and threatening her because of the issues raised in the movie. It's quite pathetic that parents are still like that... threatening teenagers! I saw a few bits of Thirteen and I thought it was quite good.

[Cerise]

Oof, I loved Thirteen! It was really good. I love the way Nikki wrote it and she and Catherine directed it; it was areally interesting and powerful movie. Never saw the end...

[jenlee]

^Thirteen was great but so was Lords of Dogtown which Nikki and Catherine did together as well

[pagey]

the only thing that annoyed me in this movie was how quick bella fell inlove with edward think they coulda had more scenes of them together before her falling inlove with him soo quick but other then that it was great

[haylzee]

oooo not long now. cant wait for the movie.

[Jamey-Maria]

It was an Indi film! I don't know whether to cry out of sadness or relief. The fact that it has become pop culture hasn't turned it into some s**tty hollywood production makes me smile and is quite tactful too for people who have been following it since S.meyer was some radom who wrote a vampire romance book three years ago.... but the camera work sucked! And I've liked Catherine's other work. I'll get what I disliked off my chest first.

SPOILERS.

-The first biology scene. Urghhhh >_< And the music. I hated the underscore in that scene. That is all.

-Jacob's fugly wig.

-The absense of my dazzling line!

-Lots of the camerwork and especially the flying through the trees. I know they were on a smaller budget but come on- I could almost see the wire...

Things I loved

-Rob's Edward smirk all the way through the film <333

-The acting- ESPESH Kristen in the bite scene- She OWNED that scene. And the music. Rob has such beautiful music <3

-Victoria: I'm the one with the wicked cureveball

Jasper: Oh I think we can handle that! I ♥ YOU RACHELLE LEFEVRE.

-Jasper and Alice in general- even though there is no where near as much Cullen action as I would have liked- ti's to be expected, it was only the 1st one.

-Speaking of which the baseball scene was EPIC. Super massive black hole was THE BEST song choice matching with the scene of the entire movie. And Jaspers bat twirling! ♥

-I loved the discovery of her realising what he was. The way it was done was pretty damn awesome. Possibly the only camera work I liked throughout the film- that and the close up of the nomads eyes in the baseball scene- that was awesome.

-James wrapping is arm around Victoria as they were walking away and Victoria at the very end- planning to enact her revenge for James- creeeeeeeepy. I ship them so anything James/Victoria I love anyway.

& then it wouldn't be twilight without my fave E/B scenes. The second bio scene was awesome. They were adorable. And the hospital scene broke my little shipper heart. It was a preview of just how sad New Moon will be. And the bedroom scene! How slllllllooooooowwwwwwwwllllllyyyyyy he kissed her. Chemistry, chemistry, chemistry.

The first time I watched it I had to get over the shock that it was nothing like I expected- but the more I watch it now the more I appreciate it. Still not digging the camera work though.
