Twilight Mania

[Susanne T.]

Let's talk about the new movie Twilight..
Starring Kristen Stewart as Bella Swan and Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen..
Have u seen the movie? What can u say about the story or the characters, etc..?
How would u rate it? 5 Stars as the top score..
I rate it 5 Stars cause i really love it though i've actually read the book. And though the book was even more kilig and fascinating, a visual story really helps a lot..
That's all for me.. Let me hear ur side of the story...
Thanks for taking the time reading this!
ARFIEN always......

My husband and I watched Twilight and saw how the girls in the ladies room were all so kilig to the bones about the movie. I don't know if the guys also felt the same way. I thought the male actor looked really vampirish and I cannot imagine the girls having a crush on him but the first time he appeared on screen a thrill pass through the audience. The dialogue in the book must have been really good and many who watched the movie probably read the book before hand, otherwise, they wouldn't have been so kilig when the guy appeared. One part I thought interesting was how the guy loved the girl but also wanted to drink her blood more than anything else. Real life experiences of love can be like that in a figurative sense; you want all of the person that you love, there's a longing to possess the other completely. true love expresses itself by resisting these urges.

after all the hype (and of course seeing my sister's pile of stephenie meyer books and her endless wanting for me to read it) I was actually interested to see the movie so I dragged my boyfriend (martin) to watch it with me. he really didn't want to cause he thinks it will be more of a high school love drama or whatever. and when we got out he looked at me and said "te, high school musical?" oh well that's him. but as for me I actually liked it. It was a great introduction to the world that meyer created. and as tita said, it was really interesting that edward loved bella so much and yet he thirsted for her blood. so i guess its really a battle inside of the guy. and I also like the cullen clan. they defied their natural instincts because they didn't want to be monsters. it makes you think... well anyway, as far as the movie goes... i guess it gave the book justice in a way that it captured the essence of the plot. but then again, I was told the movie wasn't really complete... my sister explained that Jacob (the son of bella's father's friend) was actually a werewolf! and you know what? kailinit ka sister ko! she has all three books after twilight but doesnt have twilight itself!!! i really want to read it now but i have no choice but to wait for january when national bookstore would call and say that finally my ordered twilight has arrived!!! but til then, I just have to live with the facts that the movie has provided. I'm currently creating a line of accessories that would cater to the twi-hards! (shameless plugging! hahaha) so to all twi-hards in LCCians of the world, message me if you're interested and il give you a sneak peek of what's to come.

i've already read all four books!!! as i read the third book, eclipse, i started to ask myself when will Bella become a vampire.. hmmmm.... well, syempre, it would happen on the last episode, as expected.. the funny thing is, Edward doesn't want her to become a "monster", as he says it, in which Bella would also contradict... now Edward sets conditions before he agrees to "convert" her, in which he also delays the decision... hahaha!!! this is the subject in which they don't go along very well... they end up arguing, and dealing, and arguing again... kaka-excite and kakainis both of them....heheheh..... but still love them!! the Cullens family are one of a kind!!!
