At 12:01 this morning, like thousands of other across the country, I piled into a movie theater to catch a first glimpse at 1. all the freaky people who are obsessed with the series and 2. to watch Twilight. You "fanpires" have no fear, you will find no movie spoilers here. About the movie I will say only this - it follows pretty closely the story of the book and keep in mind some things are much less cheesy when you're reading them and picturing it in your head than they are when you actually watch someone act it out. The movie certainly isn't in any Academy Award race but it might do well at the Teen Choice Awards this year. Silly, cheesy but if you like the series it could be fun. If you haven't seen it yet, set your expectation low and you won't be disappointed. :) If you haven't read the books, don't bother!!!!!
I was relatively happy with the casting except one minor...uh huge detail. Is it just me or does Edward (aka Robert Pattinson) totally look like Dawson Leery (aka James Van Der Beek)? He does! I think it's the shape of his head, the floppy hair and the caterpillar like eye brows. It was hard for me to get over...

Hallelujah - a new post! You saw Twilight? I didn't realize it was a trilogy and picked up the third of the series because I kept seeing Stephanie Meyers name on Goodreads. So now that I've read Breaking Dawn, maybe I'll see the movie Twilight instead of reading the book -- seems kind of silly to read when I know the outcome!
