Saw "Twilight" two weekends ago.
I guess the whole situation was kinda funny. I was really dying to see Twilight because I was craving an entertaining no-brain-required somewhat-actiony slick movie. This was before Stephen H. started gushing about it. OK I've always known he is partial to chick flicks in a weird way, and he made this Anne Rice connection which makes him even more biased... because he LOVES Interview with a Vampire (the book). But he couldn't stop gushing about Kristen Stewart. And I sort of have a girl crush on Kristen Stewart, which was another reason I really wanted to watch this.
So I drag my husband to the midnight show (although I said I was perfectly fine with seeing it myself), as did many a spouse around the world, or so I hear, and he really didn't like it.
I didn't love it, ar! I wasn't exactly expecting to love it because of the Tomatometer rating, but I still wanted it to be a slick entertaining movie. I think I should read the books because I might love the books. But the main reason I didn't love it was the filmmaking was sloppy. I want to love this movie! The characters/acting was great, and I love Bella's dork posse actually. Those were realistic high school kids. But it was edited all weird, and I didn't particularly like the special effects when it came to the super powers. And Kristen Stewart didn't mesmerize me like I'd hoped.
Boo. Anyway, can't wait for Benjamin Button.
