I'm so ashamed of myself ...

... because I thought this looked good, and I'm actually actively anticipating this movie now. 

I'm pretty sure every cool thing they showed in the trailer will only happen in like the last ten minutes of the movie (and the rest is just gonna be a redux of New Moon with KStew in a bad wig plus bonus whining about marriage), but *sob* the trailer looks good.  I know it's a bait and switch, but HBIC Dakota Fanning, and Flipping over Giant Wolves Alice ensure that I will see it.  Fake-Ass Victoria continues to make me sad though.  I miss you Rachelle!

Wow. First trailer I've ever watched for a Twilight flick, and I must say, had I never dragged my sorry ass through the corresponding book, I might actually be looking forward to this... can someone kill me now, please?

Also, I know I'm lacking interest in the gender, but isn't Edward supposed to be like, handsome or godlike or really freaking beautiful or something? He looks like he's wearing Sith lord makeup out of a Star Wars flick. I just don't get how such a sizeable slice of the worldwide female population can be fawning over him...

Honestly, avoid the movies and especially the books like the plague. They're awful, but they have a strange way of sucking you in and making you hate yourself for it. Other than pop culture ranting there's really no reason to subject yourself to them.

And even though the trailer for this looks good, people who have read the books have said that 2/3rds of it is more romantic triangle crap, and then like a few chapters of actual plot, and the movies stick very, very close to the books.

but isn't Edward supposed to be like, handsome or godlike or really freaking beautiful or something? He looks like he's wearing Sith lord makeup out of a Star Wars flick.

lol! I know. The make-up for Edward is terrible. Robert Pattinson isn't actually a horrible looking guy, I think in RL is can be quite handsome, but as Edward the guy is fug. And the character of Edward is so godawful that I can't understand who people genuinely like/are obsessed with him. Bella was written that way, the fans have no excuse.
