Ok, I admit it - I saw New Moon. And I also admit I'm one of those scary screaming fan girls. And before you go on with your bourgeois-isms about how Twilight is so teenage let me tell you something; I am a teenager. And quite frankly, I don't care if you dislike Twilight. I understand if you're a male and you dislike Twilight because you’ve realized you will never live up to Edward or even Jacob for that matter. But if you are a girl, and haven't even given the series a chance, and are just saying how uncool Twilight is to sound cool, I find you insecure.   Besides what is there not to love? Hot vampires, gorgeous boys in the soaking rain (did I mention without tee-shirts?), graphically amazing werewolves, Miss Dakota Fanning playing a role that is not so pretentious, and an amusing maniacal Michael Sheen. What more do you really want? Yes I agree, I wished we could have seen more of the dazzling Edward too, but the director was just following the book’s plot line faithfully. I know I know. Jasper should have just controlled his blood thirsty urges so Edward could have stayed. But he didn’t, jerk. And I know you are upset that Robert Pattinson/Edward Cullen didn’t look nearly as good as he did in the first film, but be thankful that Taylor Lautner/Jacob Black was there as a replacement. And not only did I think Kirsten Stewart/Bella Swan (er…Cullen) looked way prettier in this film, I also thought her acting greatly improved too. We no longer see her awkward mannerisms and her tendency to stroke her hair in distress. So, darlings go and see it. Laugh and smile, love Edward but secretly crush on Jacob too! P.S. My friend invited me too a Twilight Convention where I get to see and talk to Peter Faccinelli/Carlisle Cullen. Jealous much? CommentsViola Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:41:11 pm Jeez, I just saw it today too and I agree with everything you said. And this may be a little cougerish, because I'm in my twenties, but Jacob Black is Viola Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:41:27 pm G Viola Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:41:34 pm O Viola Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:41:41 pm R Viola Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:41:50 pm G.

Viola Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:44:19 pm too, who knows maybe one day? Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:48:18 pm No no no, silly children. You must be mistaken he is my Edward. You can have that child, what's his name? Oh yeah, Jacob. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:49:12 pm Uhg, now now now. Frassy you are the silly one you unfortunatley have the wrong man, Jacob is the best. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:51:33 pm I totally agree with your review. I hate those annoying people who are like "twilight sucks!" because they have it all wrong they suck. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:54:22 pm I have to say I am one of those annoying haters. But you sound genuinley cool so I will have to give it a chance. And I have never given it a chance so why do i have the right to judge? Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:55:43 pm New Moon isn't out here yet, but you made me increasingly excited for it too. I'm a crazy fan girl too, I have OCD obssesive cullen disorder! Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:01:18 pm He asks her to marry him, OMG!!!!!!! I had no idea! Isn't she just eighteen? Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:02:51 pm I thought she looked dramatically prettier too, it was the make up. Who knew what a little mascara could do. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:06:03 pm Michael sheen was fantasticly creepy, wasn't that other guy from Sweeney Todd the jo-anna guy who looked young and innocent? Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:07:44 pm Those men are tres tres handsome, wish the men in France were like that. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:11:19 pm I have heard it's better than Twilight but everyone either loves it or hates it. Guess I will have to see it for myself before i become too opinionated. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:13:13 pm People that hate the biggist thing of the decade are dumb, and miley cyrus is not the biggest thing of the decade. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:16:23 pm I believe definitley an improvement i felt bad for jake and bella. but not edward. he left her and literally took everything, she was dead. i have been like that before over a guy, but my deadness lasted only two weeks hers lasted four months. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:17:38 pm God Jasper, jerk. So true, you made me crack up but the sad thing is I actuallly really love Jasper. He and Alice are super cute! Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:18:15 pm I'm getting my hair done again on Friday (it's been far too long, being a student sucks when getting your hair done costs $110 here, let alone in the city where it's double that price). Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:19:54 pm I still haven't seen it, might wait a week or so until the hype dies down. I am a fan but not religiously so, though I'm glad I gave the books a chance. Just finished the last one, which I think will make an amazing film. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:20:02 pm That said, this is the film you've seen in your head if you've read the books. The film comes by its earnest love in an honest manner, it does the work to make the characters relatable and dynamic. The notion of how we hurt the people we care about is fused tautly with the supernatural. The werewolves look great, and the slowed down (yet styled up) action clearly elevates the work. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:21:49 pm Now then, there are three elements I have to knock New Moon on: Alice Sat, 21 Nov 2009 5:24:10 pm My favorite character is Alice :) Anonymous Sat, 21 Nov 2009 6:22:54 pm My boyfriend s p a r k l e s too, occasionally. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 6:31:21 pm Hmm. I jumped on the Twilight bandwagon and read/ saw the first book/ movie. Then jumped right off. It's totally a matter of taste and I've never really been into this stuff. Willow Sat, 21 Nov 2009 6:45:10 pm I hopped off and am so on now, 2nd movie is brilliant! Sat, 21 Nov 2009 8:37:36 pm yes, I like New moon too, and i'm anxious to see twilight. and i'm not a teenager at that, lol. but feel very girly with this movie. they're so cute. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 8:45:34 pm I haven't seen it yet, but I wanted to last night! The BF said he didn't want to be in a theater with all the "Twitards" - ugg! Insecure boy alert, LoL! Sat, 21 Nov 2009 9:40:07 pm wow just died at the fact if you going to a pfach convention...love carlisle...and hello favorite post ever..you clearly know about my obsession and have to admit that new moon was so much better than twi. acting and visuals totally improved. theres nothing to not love in these series. such a fangirl right now haha and not a teenager although wish i was right now Sun, 22 Nov 2009 12:26:50 am I think Twilight is okay. I saw the first film at a friend's house, but I'm unsure if I'll see the new one. Sun, 22 Nov 2009 4:11:27 am Yay New Moon! I was so excited to see it, but it fell a bit short from my expectations. But oh well, because Taylor's 8 pack made up for it :) Sun, 22 Nov 2009 7:11:20 am Hey there. How are you doing today? I hope you've been having a fantastic weekend. Take care. Have a great week ahead. Cheers! Sun, 22 Nov 2009 9:42:31 am Now I want to see this film - and I haven't even seen the first! :) Sun, 22 Nov 2009 11:55:53 am Darling, you've talked me into it... I will have to give the series a chance! Sun, 22 Nov 2009 1:10:23 pm You're not alone!! I've seen New Moon three times already!! I so adored it. Sun, 22 Nov 2009 2:54:03 pm I went to the midnight screening of "New Moon" and absolutely loved it! Although, I didn't care for the miniscule hour and a half of sleep I got before school the next day, but it was so worth it. I liked it so much that I actually went to see it again the next night! Team Jacob forever! :) Mon, 23 Nov 2009 5:45:56 pm Don't hate me! I really dislike twilight. I read all the books and will admit to falling in love with the first one. but the plot began to get worse and worse climaxing with the horrendous breaking dawn (don't kill me!). And upon rereading them the writing was almost laughable. I did see the first movie and will probably see the second eventually. I'll try to keep an open mind. Hopefully Kristin Stewert will have stopped her lip bighting acting thing... Ozanka Mon, 23 Nov 2009 7:22:54 pm I want to see it soooooooo bad, I've heard that Jacob's bod is AMAZING! Dying to see it!!! Wed, 25 Nov 2009 2:56:05 am Just discovered your blog...It's really cool! Wed, 25 Nov 2009 6:55:43 pm SO JEALOUS. I have the biggest crush on peter facinelli. Alright second biggest.. team edward for life. And you know what, I love twilight too and so do all my friends... and we're in our twenties. haha. It's definitely aimed more towards girls and gays but you know what? I took my boyfriend to new moon last night and he thought parts were lame but was still stoked on the werewolves. Sat, 28 Nov 2009 10:12:58 am I loved the book series, but HATED the movies. I heard this new one's better but i don't believe it. Leave a Reply | Author:Musings of a teenager wannabe journalist.
