Twilight (2008)

Twilight does not do justice for the books
Red Rose - wrote on 01/20/09

Lets begin with this, I'm a big twilight fan i love the books so much. I've got the four books plus the books they released just for the movie with the poster on the cover. I also bought the Film Fantasy magazine that was dedicated to the movie. The books give you so much to imagine about and loss yourself in. The story was deep and had so many twists and turns in the book. When i first saw the Trailer for the movie I was terrified and scared with who the casted in the movie. When i saw Edward was going to be played by Robert Pattinson the first thing that struck me was "Harry Potter" i know its the wrong thing to do but to me and to some hardcore fans to the book we agree that he did not match edward. If you type Edward cullen up on a search site before the movie you saw people that would of truly matched edward. Same with Kristen Stewart no offense she looks like she's high threw most of the movie. (She might of been since those pictures came out with her smoking a joint on her front Patio) But i thought hey Stephine meyer herself said these Charcters is what she imagined when she wrote the book so i went along with it. I was one of the first people to see the movie and i sat threw the whole movie getting sick off it. They leave so much out from the movie that they do in the book i know that you cant do the whole book in the movie but can you explain why they changed things in the movie that was in the book. The one everyone notices is like when Bella is walking outside of her school when the truck comes in to hit her in the novel it came head first when edward stopped it in the movie they changed it to sliding to its side. Why? Also, In the movie it seemed edward and bella dispissed each other threw the movie then suddenly there madly in love with each other out of no where. The movie lacked follow threw it did not have a steady flow it seemed like it was jumping to one scene to another alot of times. The movie lacked badly not even getting the right people in the movie to play the charcters it did not go threw right. Bella in the book was sweet nice and caring in the movie she was just truly annoying, there was no connection between bella and edward, there seemed to be connections with Robert and Kristen, even with them supposedly dating during the movie they could not get across the torment and heartache of bella and edward in the movie. With the new moon being made there is rumors different actors and actresses will be in the movie lets pray for that and also to have more of a flow in the story line. I love the books and i truly wished it could of done the books justice it just seems nearly impossible to do a book like twilight justice with all the things that happen with the book. Nice Attempt lets hope that they learn from there mistakes and they correct them.
