How does it feel to be a puppet on my string?


I've only seen the movie and I liked it. The soundtrack was pretty, the scenery was beautiful, and Jasper was cute.

I heard that Robert Pattinson got hit by a taxi when he was running from fangirls!

I loved the books. It was my first time reading about vampires actually. I was always "team Edward" though. Jacob wasn't a bad guy until he kissed her, like the a** that he is but he was the best friend, not the guy to fall for. The ending of the series was amazing though. Everything fit together nicely biggrin (in my opinion).
Howevr, I did not like the movie sad . I think the acting was the worst. EVerything in the movie was monotone, and it was so annoying. I realize that they had to cut out things and change others, and not everything from the book can be portrayed perfectly, but how they did it was not nicely done (once again, in MY opinion).

Didnt you just love Nessie heart See you picked a team i cant i love edward and jacob stare we all knew jacob liked bella nd we all knew at one time they were going to kiss so i dont consider him a bad guy when i look back on the book at the time a read it i hated him but now i mean neutral put yourself in jacob's view bella is falling for his worst enemy. I agree if you on the ending tho xd

I liked the movie but i want to change nd add a lot more... did you see the preview of new moon, IT WAS AWESOME!!!!! biggrin biggrin biggrin biggrin biggrin

I'm so glad Jacob cut his hair for the second movie. I LOVE men with long hair, but I didn't think it looked good on him crying

Which book was your favorite? I know a lot about the other books from listening to my friends talking, and I read a bit from the last one.

Sorry, but I'm not a fan. Because I don't feel like going into a huge rant, I'll just leave these points of my opinion:

1. Most of the main characters have bland personalities, if they have a personality at all. Since the actions of a book are supposed to be based on the thoughts and instincts of the characters, this makes the book's plot weak and extremely forced at best.

2. Bella is a terrible role model for the millions of teen and tween girls reading the books.

3. The movie is every bit as terrible as what I call the Eragon Debacle of 2007.

honestly i dont think they books are as well written as they probably could've been, but i did enjoy the movie. kristen stewart as bella wasnt believable for me, i didnt feel for her or care about her character. the other actors i think did an amazing job with their characters and i really felt like i was getting to know them in a way. overall i think they did a really job improving on the book and making it enjoyable.
just for the record i'm on team jacob! blaugh

User ImageNew Moon comes out in November, right?

I wish I found Robert Pattinson or Bella attractive. They came out with a magazine full of posters. If only they made a werewolf/villain issue!

i see that Stephanie Meyer has been accused of plagiarism!

of course, the other author could just be jealous

or greedy...

Sounds like another Gay Dumbledore to me- just looking for press (although they were very similar!)

I just made a "Twilight in 5 Minutes" movie with some school mates, so I'm feeling very Twilight-y ^_^ I was James!
