The Twilight Saga: After Seeing Eclipse

So...I'm back on Twilight again.  I wasn't after I saw Eclipse and I turned away for a few months because my favorite line was taken out of the movie. ''The clouds I can handle, but I can't fight an eclipse'' -Jacob I don't see why that couldn't be in the movie, unless it's in a deleted scene, but I have the digital vod version, but I digress.  It's one of the best lines in the book and they didn't use it.  Shame on you Melissa.  I'm half kidding. I haven't made my way to the eclipse soundtrack because the music in this movie didn't grab me as much as the first two but here's some of my Twilight insights. 1. I still think Twilight is Roswell with Vampires 2. They should have kept in Jacob's line 3. Not looking forward to this one year apart two parter.  I want to try to wait until both movies are out but unless something happens to me in my life (say my own massive book deal) I'll probably end up watchi...

In celebration of the Eclipse Movie coming out I decided to read the Eclipse novel, but then I thought, that's stupid to just read one book in a series, so I figured I'd have to read the first two books so I wouldn't miss stuff in the third. I'm more than halfway through Breaking Dawn so it's safe to say that Eclipse is my favorite book. Twilight was good, I liked it, I think they did a good job in terms of the movie, Bella finding out that Edward is a vampire was more dramatic in the movie than it was in the book, but...I wish things were explained a little bit more.  I mean the movie was made for people who had already read the book. I had no idea what was wrong with Edward when Bella walked in the room.  Someone told me that it was because he wanted to eat....errr...kill her so I was confused because he was sitting a classroom FULL of other people like her.  So it was things like that, that I didn't get until I read the book. New Moon was not as b...

The Twilight Saga: New Moon

I feel like my relationship with Twilight is the same as Bella and Edward's relationship.  He's trying to stay away from her and she can't seem to leave his thoughts.  It is pretty unhealthy how attached they are to one another, but I won't talk about that right now.  But seriously, it's...it's scary.  (I know it's just a story, but still.)  lol I watched New Moon and mind you I was still looking at Twilight like this was an adventure story and not a simple romance story so I start to watch it and I'm thinking Yes!  Werewolves versus Vampires.  Which is not my fault! The previews are jerks.  They clearly show Jake turning into a werewolf and Edward posing like he's ready to fight.  Spoiler Alert!  They don't fight.  I'm not condoning fighting over a girl, but they completely misrepresented what was going to happen in this movie.  Did I feel cheated?  Yeah.  Do I still feel that way?  Nah.  Why?  I...

Twilight: How Did I Get Here?

Recently for no reason at all, I suddenly developed this interest in Twilight.  I don't understand it seeing as when I first saw Twilight I hated it.  I hated the story, but the one thing stayed the same - I always liked Edward and Bella.  Maybe it's their names Edward and Isabella but let me take you through how I came to my initial reaction to Twilight.  I hated it because it was too easy to make fun of.  When I first saw the trailer and Edward is all, "Say it.  Out loud."  My immediate reaction is wtf? lol!  And Bella says "Vampire."  I'm thinking, when is he going to attack her? Ever since that dramatic commercial my brother and I made fun of it, he would grab me by the arms and say "Say it.  Out loud."  Of course he would catch me off guard hours after we've seen the commercial and when I finally figure out what he wanted I'd return with "Vampire?"  In the wimpiest voice ever. Everyone has their own Twilight point o...

The Twilight Series

I watched a RiffTrax of Twilight the other night and I thought it was hilarious.  I wish Mystery Science Theatre 3000 was still on. Anyway, I like Twilight.  I need to get that out of the way before I get angry messages. Maybe I don't like Twilight the same way that you do, but just know that I enjoy the series.  I have a love/hate relationship with Twilight that no one needs to understand, but just acknowledge that it exists.  I think that no matter how how much sense Twilight doesn't make, I will always like it.  I realize that sentence doesn't make any sense but it's my logic, and it's my money I spend on these movies so...that's that.  I like Twilight, because it reminds me of Roswell.  Yes, yes, I'm sure most of you are like wtf? -But not just because Bela and Edward are star crossed lovers like Max and Liz. -Not just because Edward is a vampire and Max was alien.  (Bela turns into a vampire and Liz an alien later on.) -Edward li...
