TWILIGHT FRIDAY!
Nov. 22nd, 2008 01:58 amSo, I just got back from Twilight, and I've gotta say ... it was nowhere near as terrible as I thought it would be. Dare I say it, based on the source material (which is gawd awful) this was probably the best movie they could have made.
( I'm the one with the wicked curveball ... thoughts behind the cut ... )
In conclusion ... it was alright. By no means the best movie ever, but for someone with a passing interest in the books/characters it was good enough (if you have no attachment to any of the characters then the movie will probably bore you to tears. To tears.).
The middle part where it's just like endless Edward/Bella scenes is brutal (just like in the book). My friend fell asleep during that part, and I was like composing the next chapters of The Edge in my mind, because it was so mindnumbingly tedious) The baseball game and then the Nomads showing up was the only thing that jump started by brain again. But ... yeah, I can't really see how they would have made the movie any better without completely changing it from the book (which I actually would have been in favor of, because I feel like without SMeyer's horrible writing and plotting there would have been a good story in this premise).
P.S. Moar Alice, Emmett and Victoria.
