I personally need to start preparations for The Hobbit! pAx~[/quote] AYE!!! The Hobbit! WOOO!!! [quote name='jmjtina' post='1707382' date='Nov 21 2008, 03:45 PM']I just have mixed feelings about the movie. [spoiler]I knew going in it wouldn't follow the book exactly, but I had some issues with the lack of temper Bella showed, the lack of temper Edward had when Bella "lost control" during kissing and the whole rushing of the movie in general. I don't think they made their relationship credible onscreen as much as I would have liked. It's like they went from A to M and skipped everything in between. However, I did think it was good. And teenage girls were dressed like Bella in thier prom dresses, but totally missed the shoe and the sweater with thier dresses. [/spoiler] Overall, it was good. A little too slow at times (in comparison to the book, which moved pretty quickly) but it was alright. I wasn't totally happy with it but I wasn't totally bummed out either. And if you haven't read Midnight Sun, you should. It helped me like Edward's character a bit more since I didn't like him at all in book one to a certain extent.[/quote] I agree, overall it was good. I was really annoyed with the actor who played James (HE WAS TERRIBLE) but otherwise, everyone else was either adequate or perfect. YOU READ MIDNIGHT SUN!?!?! HOW!?!

tinytherese Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Decent Films had a review of the film/series. The critic is a catholic.

tinytherese Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 One of my current suitemates in college has read part of Midnight Sun and said that it was creepy because you read about Edward's thirst for her blood and desire to kill her. Though she still said it was good. She thought that it would be monotonous because its the same story as book one but it really wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved Twilight, the book, as well as the movie, which I saw today. It's just fun-vampires, teenage romance, stylization-good times. -Katie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xTrishaxLynnx Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Just finished the third book very early this morning. They seem to be getting progressively better. I was quite impressed with this one, but did anyone think it ended kind of abruptly?? [spoiler]It was like ... about to get ready for the wedding... BAM! The end.[/spoiler] I'm not in too much of a hurry to pick up the fourth and final book because I know I wont be able to put it down once I do.
