Twilight Series!

I'm guilty of seeing it twice within a 24 hour period.

I loved and so did the 6 14/15 year old girls I took to see it. We were all ready to watch it again immediately! I thought they did a wonderful job with casting and I'm amazed that they really captured the intensity of the Edward/Bella relationship from the start. Since I read the first three books in quick succession, I didn't really remember what happened in which book. I had always pictured the Cullen house as a big old Victorian mansion rather than the new modern glass house, but most everything else was just as I'd imagined. Oh! Except Charlie. I didn't expect him to be quite that hot. I thought he'd be more disheveled, more overweight.. less, HOT. I think they tossed in a hot Charlie for us moms who had to take their daughters to the movie! Yeah, I'm Team Charlie now..lol.

I'm almost always disappointed with movies based on books but not with this one. This one was great.

That's exactly like my bff!! lol.


So i've been thinking about a friend of mine who I HATE going to the movies with because she's always telling me "this didn't happen in the book" or "that's wrong" blah blah blah, and I always told her that the movie can't be exactly like the book. Yet, I acted exactly like her when I was complaining to my bff about Twilight.

I realized that I really did like the movie, and it fully did live up to my expectations. I guess I just wanted the movie to be just like the book, and it can't.
I got it confirmed yesterday when I saw a clip of Twilight on Headline News (is that MSNBC or CNN??) and I got a little tingly feeling. I only get that feeling when i've seen a movie I really like.
