But I watched New Moon last week and was NOT impressed!
Firstly, this is a LONG movie. After I left the theatre, I was convinced that like 5 hours of my life had passed before my eyes. Every conversation is the exact same. And the exact same length of way too long!
Secondly, for those of you who don't know this series, there is this werewolf, Jacob, who takes off his shirt in the movie. All the time. Approximately every 5.4 seconds. Well every time this happened (remember this was a lot!) every female in the theatre under the age of probably 70 giggled like a love sick teenager. It got a little old. (The giggling, not the chest :)
Finally, at the end of the movie Bella still goes with Edward. I knew this happened, as I've read the books. But Edward is such a tool (this is where 98% of girls at BYU start to send me death threats). His big part in the movie is to leave Bella, try to kill himself, she saves him, and then she has to save him again at another part in the film. Yay Edward. Why are we obsessed? Plus there was a part in the movie when Edward took his shirt off. The only thing I could think of was "cold dead fish". What is Bella thinking?
I think I am probably so anti-Twilight because I was a Buffy/Angel fan before.
Which I know is lame in it's own right. I'm fully aware. But here is the general premise: Buffy is a human who falls in love with vampire with a soul, Angel who has committed to never kill a human again. Their love is doomed and they don't know if they can ever live together. They even have a werewolf for a friend. Sound familiar???? Except for that Angel is not said whiny tool like Edward.
And bring on the death threats....!
