I was so excided to see this movie, but then when i saw it, I was so dissapointed, What Happen?. Like they cute a hole chunk out of the book, I was like hey that didnt happen… and what happen to the other scene. I really enjoyed reading the books, so I tought the movie was going to be amazing, and im starting to think that the only reason people (mostly girls) when to watch this movie is because of Edward and the other hotties that came out in the movie. I agree, this isnt the best movie in the world, but it’s also not the worst, I’m sure some of us have seen worst, and wanted our money back!. Hopefully the other films to come arnt as bad as the first, and will change our mind on it. Also peole need to stop obssesing about this film and get over it, Seriously people, our wrolds dont revolve around Twilight!

Okay, I’m going to rant. Melissa since you are responsible for the script of the future New Moon movie PLEASE listen to the fans of the books and be sure include the nuances of the relationships. Twilight was totally lacking the simple little details that made the relationship seem so intense. The meadow scene was completely ruined, Edward did not touch Bella in the tender and endearing way he did in the book (touching her face gently or running his lips down her jawline etc.). They never even told each other the loved one another! The love shown on screen was rushed and completely unbelievable. So………..PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE write the scripts carefully for New Moon. I beg you. I am so upset about the butcher job that was done on Twilight!! You will need to make up for what was lost in Twilight in the beginning of New Moon by amping up the Edward/Bella relationship BEFORE he leaves. Also, please include Edward’s voice in Bella’s head so that it keeps the viewer wondering if he’s there or not. Please give Bella enough meaningful dialog to show her agony and Jacob’s growing love for her. This series deserves a “Harry Potter-ish” level of effort. Thank you.

…sounds like there aren’t many positive things to say about the film.

Are there any fans around here that could let us know what they think?

Trying to sit through that entire movie was just plain PAINFUL! Movie wise overall it was not acceptable. Though the movie did succeed in making the beautiful unique story of Twilight into utter crap. It was a sloppy piece of work as it seemed as if through the whole movie there were dozens of awkward scenes. The many of the actors failed to capture the real essence of their characters. There was horrible chemistry between the characters of Bella and Edward in the movie. Also the atmosphere that the music gave off was totally wrong. I know they were trying to pull off sneaking in some of Stephenie Meyer’s music in some scenes, but it just gave off a confusing emotion mixed in with the weird acting, I didn’t really know what to feel at certain points in the movie. I think that the worst part of all of was that these people who made the movie really just stole dozens of peoples money by giving us a really crappy movie, sticking a popular title in front of it and calling it good movie to watch. And now that this production company is gaining millions of dollars from this disaster they probably think they’ve done a great job and continue making such crap for the rest of the series. Right now I’m really just angry that i actually paid for such a movie. I’m surprised it didn’t just go straight to DVD it was so bad. Hearing that the same people who did this movie are going to make New Moon, i really pray that people get some sense to know what is good and acceptable and what should just be burned to save people the trouble of wasting their time on something a lot of people know could have been better. The thing about this movie is that it didn’t have to turn out THIS BAD! Other movies that were based on books turned out really great in the past such as the Harry Potter movies, and even Lord of the Rings. These are examples of how the Twilight movie was supposed to be like, not exactly like the book, but with the right amount of excitement and proper direction. To be honest this movie was just so bad that there is just no space possible to vent out the anger that I am feeling at this moment. I hope that people, especially Stephenie Meyer’s can be smarter in these very crucial decisions next time, but for now i don’t believe I’ll be trusting any work from people like Catherine Hardwicke with any of my precious money or my time, until someone smartens up and actually realizes that these books and story’s need to be taken into account and be made properly, preferably by someone who knows what they’re doing, has read the books, and can actually relate and understand the most important part of the story, the characters. Because the characters are the ones who carry the story on their backs and bring it to life, without good acting, good directing, then all that is left is something ugly and butchered like the Twilight movie. I hope and I pray that Stephenie Meyer can see this and realize it soon before it’s too late. SAVE TWILIGHT!!

It was very disappointing, from the acting to the lines. Mr. Pattinson looked horrible and co-star, Kristen Stewart, did not help with that. I can’t believe Stephenie Meyer agreed to that horrible version of her wonderful novel. Forgive me but they did not do the book justice. Or maybe it just wasn’t great because the Harry Potter trailer was shown right before, maybe I’m just hard to please. But honestly, if the next book is made into a film, and the acting doesn’t improve, then there’s no point in trusting the movie industry.

My sister is seeing this, but I’m not until the DVD comes out. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the book, and I kinda feel a bit sick when I see people carrying around the books in school, but I will say this: It is gonna make a shitload of bucks because of its huge fanbase. I mean, isn’t it the most read books since Potter? It’ll probably make a ton of money.

Gotta say, the movie was actually pretty good. They could have done more with the CGI. This movie will do big bucks, so hopefully they’ll have more money for the next installment to get the CGI right.
