Veronica090 Hate the entire thing. I actually read some of the first book and couldn't stand it. Bella is a Mary-Sue to the max and I also think the whole book would be a better fanfiction than actual series. Not to mention the 'Myerpires' suck. I think the hype is so overdone and most of the loud, obnoxious fans screwed the series. I've said I don't like Twilight and I've gotten major backlash for being a HP fan or just plainly not liking Twilight. Personally; I think if you like Twilight when your 15, you may not like it so much when you're 23 (and yet; there are many books that can stay with you for those years if you read it as a teen). Not to mention with the movie (we watched some in English when we had a sub teacher), the whole thing was like tinted blue. Wth? I'm pretty sure it's called color grading. It can be used to correct something such as white balance, to fix up some sort of error, to give the film desired light conditions because they weren't availible for what ever reason, to get a special look/mood/effect (like color enhancement or setting an emotional tone), and also for something involving special effects.
Although I haven't seen the whole movie, I think that in this case they probably used the blue color grading to set a sort of mood for the film. In western culture, blue can represent a feeling of gloom or sadness, and darkblue can be more for seriousness, depth, and a sort of feeling of "integrity" I guess.
It made sense for them to tint this movie blue; the film just wouldn't have the same sort of feel to it if they tinted it another color, or didn't tint it at all.

In all fairness the films feel regardless of the colour they used, would still have made me blow chunks. Rellik San - Holding out for a vampire flick that doesn't involve Metal listening bad assery or complete emo failure. (well... other then the Lost Boys.)

If they need to tint the entire thing blue to give it the feeling they were going for, then I think that really says something about the quality of the film.
Or they were just being melodramatic, which also says something.

Infection XIII The Goth Apple Infection XIII Personally I read all four books, and truly did not care for them at all. They seemed to get worse(and longer, for that matter) as they went along. Now, I did read the first book because someone insisted it was the best book ever, it was on the library display, and I had nothing better to do that day. But I could barely finish it. Why did you read all of them?A lady friend of mine bet me I couldn't read them all in a week. Normally I wouldn't make a bet like that, but needless to say I made $200 that week. Though looking back on it now, knowing what I've read, if I were to go back in time I'd refuse without a second thought. You can tell your an amature, a pro would have used that money to be enough alcohol to induce a black out and a weeks worth of amnesia, so you get to party and not remember it. Its a win/win situation.

Its a win/win situation. Now that you mention it, I did actually spend about 80% of that money on booze. Though sadly, nowadays it takes a lot to get me wasted(sad thing to say when you're only 18 ), but I never thought of that. XD

XD Its a sad thing to say when your 14... its sadder when your at college when your 16, all your friends are getting wasted off of 2 drinks and you're on your 7th looking at them and thinking "idiots". ^_^ Ahhhh liberal upbringing ftw.
