Twilight
I saw it. Now before you start mocking me (Which I totally understand…I, after all, used to be a mocker), understand that I saw it only because the only other option was bowling, and the bowling alley was closed.
Moving onto the movie…I enjoyed it! Again, before you mock me, know that my reaction is still somewhat unclear. I don’t know if I loved it because of the movie itself, or because the people in it were beautiful and cool. I mean, the scene with Edward and his sunglasses…my shriek of joy was only slightly exaggerated. And then when he saves Bella from those molestor people…he was just soo cool. Pretty much all the good guys were good looking too, which doesn’t hurt.
Of course, the storyline was pretty standard romance. Just add in vampires to the plot, and you have Twilight. The funny thing is vampires aren’t even the main point. It’s more a love story than a vampire story. And the first half, much of the acting/script is just terrible. It’s awkward and funny. But at one point I realized that I was really into the storyline. It’s not the actors fault they were given stupid lines like “you are my own personal brand of heroin.”
Overall, though, I acknowledge the fact that I have betrayed my gender, but it’s a great movie.
