sparklet Posted March 23, 2009 I loved all 4 books....Breaking Dawn was the best! I liked the movie there could have been a little bit more action. I hope Stephanie changes her mind and release Midnight Sun: Edward's Version of Twilight. She could go even further with Breaking Dawn... Edward is so romantic! The only thing about it, if they are going to be doing movies, they need to tape continuously because the actors are going to be too old to play the characters..UNLESS she changes it in her I hope future novels... I cant wait to see New Moon and Jason.. If you read the book you would know what I am talking about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh and I like T-shirt # 5,lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CeCiMom Posted March 25, 2009 A bit like jenw... I just saw Twilight and I've never read the books. BUT, the movie made me want to read the entire series. I've got to admit I kinda thought you all were a bit loony over Edward... at your ages and all. I get it now!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WickedOne Posted March 27, 2009 So I'm watching my special features Twilight disc right? And Catherine Hardwicke narrates it. She's heard and shown throughout. All I could think was {{ shudder }}. That is one extremely unattractive woman and she's is 'off'. Not in a good eccentric off way. More of a sat by herself in the lunchroom with good reason off way. I am VERY greatful CW will be directing the next movie. Catherine claims she consulted Stephanie during the making of the movie. HELLO? I saw more of a subtle bullying. Stephanie seemed lost and bewildered by the process. She might've wrote it but was overwhelmed by the sets activity and no way was she qualified to really have professional input. Putting it in the hands of a calmer, less self obsessed, not so weird director should bring forth a better result. Catherine seemed too hellbent on making it her baby.

ElleNaturelle Posted March 28, 2009 I agree with all of that. I think too though that Stephanie was all too excited to get her book made into a movie that she wasn't as stern on things as she could have been. She was probably just swept up in the whole thing. Now that it's such a hit though, I suspect she'll be the one really calling the shots. She doesn't have to just let "anyone" direct it now. She totally has the power. Thank God too. That Catherine chick was well beyond nuts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenw_72 Posted March 28, 2009 what bothers me about the movie is that they left out so many important parts,loke James knowing Alice from before she was a vampire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WickedOne Posted March 28, 2009 If I were asked to use one word to describe Catherine Hardwicke it would be HOAKEY. And her hoakiness spilled over into the movie which detracted from the brilliance of Stephanie's book. I expected some important stuff to be left out based on the size of the book. That is of course unless they'd divided the book up into overlapped movies like the Harry Potter series. However, they weren't certain they were going to move on to New Moon so it all had to be crammed into one film. Fine. But the actual work itself could've been MUCH better in the time frame used considering the magnificent material given to work with. Again, crossing fingers for C. Weitz. But movies aside, we'll ALWAYS have the books. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenw_72 Posted March 28, 2009 I just got book 4 lastnight. I haven't gotten into it yet,but I am soooo excited to start it.Also I have all my fingers and toes crossed that the next movie will be just as good as the book,but you are right though,we will always have the books.

erinjs Posted March 28, 2009 I hope CW does better for New Moon than he did the Golden Compass. But it can't be worse than what CH did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ElleNaturelle Posted March 28, 2009 Oh I love your new avy! I have that in poster form on my bedroom door! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenw_72 Posted March 28, 2009 I tried to put that poster on my bedroom ceiling,but the hubby won't let me.Weird eh? lol I think he is jealous of my feelings for Edward Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElleNaturelle Posted March 29, 2009 hahaha! My friend is the same way. He keeps sending me emails of what he thinks are bad photos of Edward (Rob Pattison), asking how I could like someone who is so ugly. Then he sent me an article that said how he doesn't shower and how people on the set of New Moon gag whenever he's around and how it's really becoming a problem. To all of this I say, "get out of the way jealous boy and let me have my affair with my fictional boyfriend!!". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparklet Posted March 29, 2009 Breaking Dawn was my FAVORITE! I was so embarass for a person my age to be falling for the Twilight series I am glad there are more people out their around my age that love the series too!... I just wish that she would release Midnight Sun: Edward's Version of Twilight. You can read it on her official website, http://www.stepheniemeyer.com I understand that writing a novel is hard because you put your all into it. I know that hurt her when a friend betrayed her and posted the book online and it wasnt even ready! I hope one day Stephanie will reconsider her decision.

erinjs Posted March 29, 2009 God me too. Midnight Sun gives a whole other perspective. It's so good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElleNaturelle Posted March 29, 2009 It's very sad to me that she can't continue writing it because it's been tarnished in her mind with how it got out. I can totally see how she wouldn't be motivated to continue now. I'm hoping that in time though that she'll be able to go back to it and try again. I know how it is when you're really upset, but eventually things do calm down. Please...for the fans....for Edward, I hope that's the case Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
