So I wasn’t feeling so hot last night, and decided to forgo both B-B & Guns and Vicious Circle and turned in early.
Well the wife had finally given in to curiosity and rented Twilight. We HAD to watch it!
OMG I was not disappointed at how bad it is!
First up, I’ve been a Kristen Stewart fan since I fist saw her in Panic Room, but the director, Catherine Hardwicke managed to coax a few very bad performances from her.
The one complaint I’ve read about the books is that the characters are one-dimensional, and the relationship between Bella and Edward is the type of dangerous, obsessive, and controlling teenage relationships that all should avoid.
Also the wife and I were AMAZED that there were deleted scenes, as the pacing in the film could only be measured on the geological scale. The movie was 2 hours long, and could be easily be scaled down to 40 mins without any loss of plot. Tho this comes VERY close
Also Robert Pattinson is one of the ugliest men in showbuisness. Seriously I suspect his Mom did a whole lot of drugs while pregnant and attempted to abort him with hairspray.
Needless to say after watching this movie I actually had a strong desire for vampires to be real….so I could devote my life to killing them!
