Update on TWILIGHT Hype!



Well, I had watched the Movie. I am on Book 4 BREAKING DAWN of the Twilight Saga.

The Movie Twilight brought in over $70 Million its Opening Weekend!

They have also confirmed that there will be a Sequel New Moon movie in the works for the Twilight series.

Also Stephenie Meyer had stated that she will not work on Midnight Sun (5th book in series) for another couple of years or probably not at all...

So that wraps it up for now...I am still cozily reading Breaking Dawn, which I think is the most compelling of all the books. Stephenie Meyer also inspires me to write a short story or two as well.

Movie Review: TWILIGHT


What Movie Twilight is about Basically a Mortal falls in love with a Vampire and the setting takes place in Forks, WA and they are both in a High School Setting. Based on the Best Selling Novel "Twilight" Aurthur Stephenie Meyer

The Premiere for the movie was Friday, November 21st 2008. I have never been to a Premiere of a movie before or read a book and watched a movie based on a book before. So it was all new to me. Let me tell you though, when you go to a Premiere with Tweeny Boppers boy-vampire crazy girls you hear a lot screaming while you are trying to enjoy your movie LOL.

I am a big fan of the book Twilight and the series. I even bought the shirt. As you can tell. Reading the Twilight series does want me to break out my V.C. Andrews books again though. I almost done with the book series.

Anyway onto my Review! :D

I Rate it a C or 3 Stars.

The reason is because I felt like the movie was rushed, the scenes were combined and choppy. I did not feel any chemistry between Edward and Bella. I know its not going to be like the book, but they still could have made the movie better. I thought Rob tried to hard to be Edward. Bella emotions I think were all wrong, although her face fit the part.

What I liked was the characters. Alice was just adorable. I loved the trees. I think they made the Vampires look beautiful and strong like they should be.

Would I watch it again? YES
Would I buy the DVD? YES
Would I recommend it: Yes sort of LOL
Will I watch the Sequels? YES, in fact a Sequel for NEW MOON is in the works.

Book Review: Twilight by Stephenie Meyer


Amazon.com Review
"The book that started the phenomenon is now available in a deluxe collector's edition! Featuring a ribbon bookmark, cloth cover, ragged edges, new chapter opener designs, and a beautiful protective slipcase, this edition is perfect for fans and collectors alike.Bella Swan's move to Forks, a small, perpetually rainy town in Washington, could have been the most boring move she ever made. But once she meets the mysterious and alluring Edward Cullen, Bella's life takes a thrilling and terrifying turn. Up until now, Edward has managed to keep his vampire identity a secret in the small community he lives in, but now nobody is safe, especially Bella, the person Edward holds most dear.Deeply romantic and extraordinarily suspenseful, Twilight captures the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. This is a love story with bite.

Ok I first heard about this book at work, I kept seeing it on a few womens' desk I would pass on my way to lunch and wonder WTF? For weeks I had seen it and not really took the initiative to see what the book is about. Well, my one of my online groups kept mentioning the book as well and I finally asked someone at work what the book is about and they told me that is a love story between a vampire and mortal. Now I am not into vampires very much but I was really intrigued by the popularity and decided to purchase it. Well it two days I am now up to Chapter 11. The book was also so popular they decided to do a movie (of course) and I will be watching that as well when I finish the book.

There are also 3 or 4 other books in the series. I will be reading those as well. :)

My opinion of the book so far is, it is different than anything I have ever read. The main characters are not your typical characters. I still think I need to read more of the series in order to form a solid opinion. But I will keep you Updated :)
