LMAO! His acting in it leaves a lot to be desired.

The books (all with the exception of the last one) were ... alright. I just hate the media attention surrounding the Twilight movie phenomenon. Oh, and let's not forget the Twi-twits! :roll:

Honestly, I think that's the reason I haven't read the books, my friend brought over the first three and was like read these, and that was months ago and I still haven't even read the first page. I have watched Twilight and I'm sure I'll be forced to watch New Moon eventually but I wasn't a big fan.

I recently read all four Twilight books, and my fave was the last one, 'Breaking Dawn'. I'm probably in the minority with that one, as I've seen on a few blogs that many disliked the last one, but many did like 'Eclipse' which is book 3. 'New Moon' was prob my least fave of the series. I'm not obsessed with Twilight saga, but I was curious :wink:

I went to go see it opening day but the 3D was all sold out and I wasn't about to see it in 2D instead.

IMAX 3D was completely sold out for all times on Sat, but I purchased tickets for this morning at the 10:40am IMAX 3D show, and got to see it. I loved it! It was a packed house too for it to be in the morning! I saw it earned over 116 Million for the weekend so far! It's the biggest 3D opening ever and the biggest for director Tim Burton!

I don't think I can go see it til the week after next. Unless a magic babysitter appears I wish he was old enough to see a 3D movie.

I've only seen the first film and haven't read any of the books, but I was wondering if anyone else noticed a few parallels with Roswell? Or is it just my weirdly obsessed brain??

The last movie I saw at the cinema was "Shutter Island" and it was pure genius. I haven´t heard much of the story before and that turned out to be the best way to approach it. Leo was great and the outcome was quite surprising. Also the lack of music before something unexpected or scary happened got me pressed into the seat more than once. I can highly recommend it.
