Twilight news

Oh my god, I read the comments from www.twilightlexiconblog.com about people's take on the movie. I know I shouldn't, but I can't help myself.

From what the comments are liked, it boils down to 2 things: it is hilarious and it is not as good as it should have been.

Hilarious? No movie should be hilarious unless it's comedy-based. That's why my love for Harry Potter movies takes a tumble after POA was out.
Twilight is NOT supposed to be funny. Why are people even laughing?? I've a feeling that it's because they are so thrilled to finally see Pattinson as Edward on the screen. I don't know...

Maybe, I should only watch the movie after it's out for a few days... But perhaps Singapore won't have it worst. I really need to cross my fingers on no fans screaming when Pattinson shows himself.

People also commented that the movie is not as good as it should have been. I can understand this part. Summit Entertainment works on a tight budget and this is the beginning. I also know that NO movie adaptation from a book will be perfect. There will be scenes that are better left for the brain to conjure up or up to one's imagination.

I think the problem is that, Twilight always has a special place in our hearts/dear to us. When something foreign comes along, we will automatically repelled it. We'll always compared it to the original, which is the book.

Oh my, I wanted to comment on the movie too. Please let the month speed past. Let it be 18th December soon.

My cousin had an idea, we'll go for the 1st screening of Twilight on 18th Dec. That way, the theater will not be fill with too many people, especially other fans. Sounds good to me.

And one more thing, yahoo has news on Twilight movie. Again, I probably shouldn't read anything there since there will bound to be "critics" and hurtful comments.
