I understand completely that this is NOT an action movie but another interpretation of Romeo and Juliette.

I have one question for those who’ve read the books: Was the fight scene in the school at the end more violent in any way in the book. I’m hearing people taking about arms getting ripped off in the second book so I’m wondering if they are censoring the action on screen.

Also, about the transformation in the new trailer, it doesn’t matter if it’s how the book describes it if in the end the CG sucks like it does in the trailer.

Freaking figures, doesn’t it?

Thats bullshit though, in my opinion

She focused and emphasized on them SO MUCH, the second book was a HUGE build up for a fight at the end and..what happened?

Same with #4…the whole book was a HUGE build up for a wolf/wolf fight between Sam and Jacob’s pack, and we all know what happened, same with the ending with that gathering of vampires, see? THAT pissed me the FUCK off

My favorite character of the whole book was Felix the Vulturi (who is being played by Colossus from X-Men by the way) and they make him seem like such a badass guy, and he IS, but….totally wasted.

I want them movies to add fight scenes in these scenes that didnt have them, because the movie will SUCK if its like in the book…

Ya, the Volturi are probably my favorite characters in the books. Would love to read a book or a see a movie dedicated strictly to them, but sadly that does not seem like something Meyers would write. To dark for her style I think. It’s one thing to create them, a whole other game to focus on them.

!!!!

It kinda is disappointing

The transformation was perfect, but as i was reading the book…when they said werewolf i instantly thought of Van Helsing

Oh snap.

The books are still good though.

I do hope they have action though, cuz the 2nd one at the very end with the vulturi….how the hell did that not end up in a huge fight?
Same for the 4th one…twice

Soon after the fight ends with Victoria and Riley this can be read: “…both he and Riley were back, Edward with his arms full of Riley. Seth was carrying a large chunk – the torso – in his mouth.” Just as example, but if he had arms and hands you would think he would be carrying the torso with them rather than in his mouth.

Oh, here is the good one same page: “Together, the vampire and the werewolf scoured the campsite, occasionally tossing small lumps of white stone into the blaze. Seth handled the pieces with his teeth. My brain wasn’t working well enough for me to understand why he didn’t change back to a form with hands.”

That all pertains to Seth, but obviously in regard to form the werewolves take it applies to them all. I got some other stuff to do, but if you want some more examples let me know and I will dig em up for ya. Hopefully this doesn’t make you disappointed in the books since the idea in the movie disappointed you.

And for anybody that complained about the transformation of the werewolf in the movie trailer, that’s pretty much exactly how it is described in the book. In a blink of an eye a loud ripping sound, the human form exploding, and a larger than human wolf jumping out of the explosion. That is paraphrased obviously, but pretty much exactly what happens in the trailer.

Here’s the thing…didn’t hate Twilight. Didn’t love it either. Besides, I can express my opinion on this matter if I want to, no matter whether I’ve said before that I don’t care for the Twilight series.

To be truthful, I’m GLAD that they are putting more action in the film. I’m just not gonna see the film because it just doesn’t do it for me. Just my opinion.

Well, as far as the fight between Seth and Riley, there is the mention of Seth’s tail and the losing of Riley’s arm is quoted as follows: “I saw Seth sink his teeth into Riley’s shoulder and tear, jumping back again.” So that was done via biting. Still skimming through the books… but no hands involved in that one.
