Geez, what's up with movies today?
Took my wife to see Twilight Eclipse the other night.

What a complete waste of money. I figured werewolves,
vampires, this couldn't be a bad movie.

Boy was I dead wrong, It's nothing but a chick flick love
story with child actors.

Special effects aren't even that spectacular.

Movie in a nutshell:

The girl can't decide between the vampire, which is what
she wants I guess, and the werewolf who really wants her.

Then their's kinda goth vampire gal that does break up the
monotony, but only for a second.

Anyway, the vampires and werewolves band together to
fight a group called the Newborn Army, a bunch of newly
born vampires who absolutely need to get the girl.

Pretty much the END, passing on the next movie. :-)

Don't buy the DVD, rent it if you are a glutton for
punishment. It will save you some money, and at least
when you get overly bored, you can turn off your player. :-)

But then again, I'm not much of a movie goer and this is
definitely not the only movie I've been sorely disappointed
with.

Avatar was another one. I thought the acting and story
line was rather, Hmmm crappy. :-)

But the special effects made up for it's down falls. :-)

Any movie you've seen you would to like to critique?

Those... things... vampires.
I do like that they sparkle though. Sparkles are neat! And adjectives. Adjectives are great... she uses a LOT of them in her books. So many adjectives...

Ah, Twilight. The story of one girls choice between bestiality and necrophilia :P

I can't wait for the T-shirts, I saw this on premier, marking off days on my calander, and it was awesome I am being serious, for those of you who didn't read the other thread, I am a hardcore twilight fan!

Underworld was good too though :)
I heart buffy also :)

I loved Underworld and Buffy.
I'm not surprised wateriestfire is a Twilight fan--it seems like exactly the kind of thing she'd like, either on its own merits, or just to be different and throw people off. Either way, it's brilliant, and I love her for it. *sniffle*

Sadly, I did know the Twilight saga is a set of books, 4 of
them as I recall. No I haven't read them, nor have I seen
any of the other movies. :-)

I'm more of Tom Clancy individual when it comes to reading
a book. His novels not the short stories. :-)

If I have to choose it's the movies over the books. I'm currently reading Eclipse because... I can't have an opinion unless I read/watch.

Plus... half naked boys make me happy when I go to the movies. Yes, I stare at Taylor Launter's abs.

The Harry Potter movies are one of the few instances where I enjoy the movies more than the books. Of course, I got stuck on the 4th novel when I first attempted reading it and just couldn't get into it, so. I still think it's a good series, really imaginative, but I don't really feel the need to go back and re-read/finish it.

Also, Let the Right One In. I loved both immensely, but there were parts just so creepy in the book that I'm actually glad it wasn't included in the movie (and with good reason).

Spoilers: Jacob gets someone in the fourth book. Kind of.
I know this because my grandma is obsessed with the series.

Twilight fans make Trekkies look sane and well-adjusted (no offense to any trekkies here). The fans are part of what makes the series so completely unbearable. But that's what happens when you write novels targeted at fat, pimply, virgin goth-girls that spend all their time on VampireFreaks.com and fantasize about getting boned by their cold, sparkly, vampire boyfriends while they finger themselves at night.

Robert Pattinson isn't a bad guy - he's a pretty awesome actor, I've watched some of the indie-ish films he's been in. He also hates Twilight and the crazy fans. xD

I can sit through the Twilight movies, mostly because they're pretty and I have a hardon for pretty. They're well-filmed. Also, yeah, Ashley Greene is super hot. Other than that, though, the boys in the film do NOTHING for me, obvs, and Kristen Steward has rabbit dentures and sounds like a man, and she either looks disgusted or incredibly bored throughout the majority of the film. However, I read the first three books in high school by request of my (now ex-)girlfriend at the time. And throughout the entire time, I wanted to drive nails into my head in hopes that they'd hold my brain together to keep it from turning into complete mush. I swear that I'm a little bit dumber now than I was before I read those books. Movie? Yeah, I can dig it a little, and I'd probably dig it more if it involved more tits. Book? Kill it with fire.

XD That's the perfect analogy for it, Puu.
