Yeah, I am still in the not sure how I feel about it stage. It was far better the 2nd time, but I basically thought it was lame the first.
Dustyn was more on the NOT liking it side of things.
I am curious to see New Moon. Just maybe they will spend a little more $$ on it. Ha ha!
Oh yeah, and maybe a few acting lessons. Ha ha! Kidding!!
Ha ha! Are you saying you didn't like the cartoon running?
yeah just a few lessons and idk i think anything that has worse special effects than the original star wars probably could be improved
I am excited to see the other characters more involved... Alice, Jasper, Rosalie and Emmett. Oh yeah, and maybe Jacob.
what was up with jasper he was silent and weird the whole movie?
No kidding! I totally LAUGHED OUT LOUD every time he came on the screen.
It killed me!
Oh yeah, and I just can't get into the word, "chilax".
I guess I am too old and not hip enough.
ooooohhhhhh hthat is a horrible word
combined with jasper it is almost enough to kill the movie by itself
Ha ha! If you hadn't read the book, I don't think that you would realize that Jasper was a fairly new "vegetarian" vampire.
He was afraid he would hurt bella - right?
That is why they made it all rigid and awkward...
i think he was pretty much just constipated in the movie
in the book yeah he was afraid lol
But it just made those scenes weird.
The first time after I saw it, I was telling Dustyn about it. It was like 2:30 AM. he was basically asleep and I was
cracking up about Jasper... Seriously cracking up. He thought I was crazy, until he saw it for himself.
yeah well you might be a litle crazy but Jasper does make it hillarious
Anyways - besides Jasper, what else did you *love* about the movie?
well i *loved* how much alice and emmet got to be in the movie
what did you *love* about it?
I know, it's always about Bella. Bella, Bella, Bella!
How did you like the diamond skin effect?
i thought it was horrible what about you?
It did skip around a lot in the beginning.
Pretty much. Seriously... it looked painful.
yeah i thought it was supposed to make him look better
But the Baseball game was fun! I really liked that part!
yeah that was pretty good, they got one thing right
wow ok I'm caught up on this plurk now.
jacks "anything that has worse special effects than starwars" cracked me up!
spamula: I cracked up at the sparkling skin...I didn't know it made noise! They made a tinkering noise every time they showed it. i laughed
I hated the part where they flew up the trees. totally weird. and yes, jasper...ah it was strange.
i'm glad i'm not the only one
oh the flying up the trees, what about the matrix jumps that turned into flying
And the fact that edward was suppose to be smooth, flattering, and basically perfect (in the looks department).
He was not. They always talked about the nice clothes he wore and that he looked like he just walked out of a designer magazine...
not a gray T-shirt.
yea that was lame. Edward wasn't visually appealing to me.
if i could have had my way, i would have chose the guy off Hannabal Rising to be Edward.
AND... I know I have too many little issues! Ha ha! But I thought that they could have shown the bond between Bella and Charlie
I mean they didn't show how Bella cooked for him everynight ad that Charlie "needed" Bella.
So when she left, it wasn't a big deal.
yea they could've done better with the bond part, i agree. they shouldn't have said that the gal at the store picked out her bedding.
well that is at least one thing i haven't had to hate is edwards looks
it was supposed o be just how she left it!
Yes, he would have been a MUCH better Edward!!
but if bella and charlie like each other how will they ever make it work teenage girls don't like their dads lol
rory would have made a good bella but she might look a little old
MeanyMo I like your thinking! You should have picked the actors!
Jacks that's true... but a little emotion would have been nice.
yes emotion would have been niceand bella definately should have done all the cooking and taken care of charlie
Not the diner.
no the diner was making me mad
AND... I didn't like how they made the Prom just something they did.
yeah with no fighting and arguing
bella the pushover girly girl
They didn't show that Tyler was chasing her and that she did not want to go to Prom... and that Edward basically
Yeah, I had a few issues with the movie.
yeah pretty much not very true to the fun parts of the story
yeah but i have a few with the books too
i was looking forward to seeing alice get bella all ready too...
i would have loved a little more emotion out of bella instead of just ignorance, or fear. she was supposed to be teasing edward when she
I love Alice. She's my favorite.
mentioned kriptonite and spiders...instead she fears for her life when she said it.
i think they did a better job with the second hand characters than the main ones. Dr. cullen was good too.
Yeah, I liked all the other vampires... even Rosalie.
yeah i liked the supporting roles a lot except mike newton looked like a little boy
yea they did good with her. why didn't they show Jaspers calming abilities either?
yeah they should have explained about jasper and alices abilities a lot better
and finally finding out where alice came from that would have been nice to know in the movie
they never even said anything about that in the movie!! buggered me.
yeah it makes everything else fit so much nicer
Dang movies based on books!!!
I am surprised Stephenie Meyer even agreed to it.
But it was fun to watch anyhow.
I really liked the setting and Forks.
yup. like you said Kam, i hope they put more $$ into the next one, and lose the sparkling noise, and the dramatic jumping...and have jasper
say at least 5 words. is that too much to ask?
how many people have moved to Forks because of that book. Stephanie herself didn't even go there till after she wrote the 2nd one.
i bet the people of Forks HATE those books.
I know one guy from Forks (lives in Utah now) and he LOVES the books.
He thinks she did a great job with Forks.
I know a lot of teenagers have gone to visit.
Good for the economy, I guess.
well glad that people from Forks don't hate it that bad. its neat that she did a good job despite never visiting until after.
yea i'm sure they have whole stores set up towards twilight now. wonder how many idiots go wandering the woods looking for that meadow
Ha ha! Quite a few, I bet.
and i'm sure search and rescue has the area memorized now
