NEW MOON

OMG WHAT DID YOU GUYS THINK OF NEW MOON??

I'm ashamed to admit I actually liked it. But given that I've always thought Jacob was a vastly more interesting character than Edward, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. It's just such a boring book (in my opinion), I'm surprised it translated so well to the screen. ALSO, MAN, WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME

I have not seen it yet, but THE VOLTURI LOOK SO HOT LIKE REALLY! (Are they as hot as they seem in the trailer? Because damn.)

Otherwise it looks so ridiculous.

They are totally hot!! I was expecting them to be lame, they bore the crap out of me in the books. But they kick ass in the movie! They should have done more because they were seriously the best part (other than Jacob's abs).

Whuuut? They bore you in the books?
They were my favorite part like the whole way through. /vampire royalty fangirl
AND THEN THEY CAME TO THE SCREEN AND WERE SEXY!

I will tell you a secret: Pretty much the entire series except for the parts with Jacob in strikes me as terribly boring. ;)

[araine]

Ahh, that makes sense.

It is probably my conviction that they would have made great badguys in a much better series.

I do remain convinced that this would be a great story in anybody but Smeyer's hands. This movie proved it. Even though the story's still ridiculous, it was much more compelling. Just take out some of the stupid, make Edward actually interesting, and you've got a GOOD book!

Y-YOU ARE MAKING ME WANT TO SEE IT?! LIKE NOW-ISH?

(And I was gonna wait for it to go to the cheap theater too. Maybe I can theater hop?)

Because you are describing exactly the way I felt about the first movie. It was ridiculous and terrible but they actually pretended like there was a plot and I actually kinda cared a little??!! Idek what is this feeling?
