Unikorn_Stew yeah. the movie is NEVER as good as the book. They'll manage the sparkles. I don't think they managed Edward at all, I could barely manage imagining that amount of beauty in my head. He's supposed to be an angel, right? Isn't Alice's hair supposed to be spikey and pixie-like? I saw on a video how they did the smooth walking, its pretty cool. They have a few scenes in there that don't happen in the book such as: -Bella and Edward dancing in, what I'm assuming is, Bella's room. -Edward slinging Bella over his shoulder in that same scene and flying out the window -When he stops Tyler's car, he puts his shoulders and back into it, not his hand -He only stares at her during lunch and biology -He never has the "she's not one of us" talk with Emmett -Exetera
Extra scenes and small changes are necessary in films. For a few reasons:
1) In the book, we follow Bella through out her whole day, everday. We see only what she sees because she's telling us the story. In the movie we are no longer bound to Bella's eyes and thoughts. We can travel to whoever we want (well, whoever the directer wants) and we see more of the story that was previously hidden to us before.
2) In the book we know what Bella is thinking. In the movie we don't. She is no longer narrarating for us. Therefore. more explanation is needed, and also, in a way, less explanation. She no longer has to describe things for us, we get to see them. It's a delicate balance. I think you can understand how that would be difficult.
So wee little changes that are not crutial to the main plot are made. To make it easier to film, to make it easier to understand, to make it easier to portray. There are tons of reasons for why changes are made. Plus, you have to remember that not everyone who is going to see this movie will have read the book. So it has to be understandable for them, too.
We just need to trust that the changes they made are necessary for the movie to function. I highly doubt they changed things just because they can.
