New Moon early screening...sometimes it really is all about who you know. ;)

I got lucky tonight... A friend of a friend of a friend (you get the idea) hosted a screening for The Twilight Saga: New Moon and the roommate and I went.

The film has it's good stuff - Bella and Jacob in comfortable space with great chemistry; it's bad stuff - the less good, less believable Bella/Edward chemistry; and the plain old ugly stuff -

I closed my eyes all the way down to the comment box because I don't want to be spoiled but I just wanted to say... You lucky wench! : )

It was MAYHEM...all these people standing in line and there were actual security guards with metal detectors. Once the movie started they were walking around with night-vision goggles making sure no one was recording.

I'll say this... It was a lot of fun and I wasn't disappointed. =)

Night-vision goggles?? That's insane!

Good representation of the book?

I'll say this about the book-to-movie thing: I don't typically see them. When I love a book I don't want to see it gutted for people who don't read.

When it came to Twilight, I avoided it as long as I possibly could...I mean I *loved* that book and I didn't want to see it completely screwed up - and it was. This time around, it was better. Of course the stuff that I wanted to see the most was hacked to bits but for the most part it wasn't terrible.
