Well folks, it’s back – the Twilight Saga continues with the second installment of the blockbuster book turned movie mega-hit, New Moon. Bella is still in Forks, Washington with her awkward father, Charlie, and the man half the women in the world want to be bitten by, Edward, is still as pastey and cold as ever. Of course, Jacob, the hairy man beast the he is, has abs a girl could grate cheese on but we’re not allowed to think about that as Jacob is still a minor and that would be wrong.
New Moon doesn’t really break any new ground and fans of the book are likely to be a little disappointed by how much the film has strayed from the book. Oh, who are we kidding? The movie has Taylor Lautner shirtless and the gorgeous-no-matter-what-he-wears Robert Pattinson so girls of all ages will love it.
Truthfully speaking, I didn’t enjoy the movie as much as I hoped, but considering how insanely excited I was to see New Moon, there was no way it could be anything other that a little disappointing. After repeated watchings I have warmed to it significantly and have found myself enjoying it much more.
Twilight (2008)
I love Twilight and I don’t care who knows. I am shamelessly counting down the days until New Moon hits theaters, and so what? I am, in fact, a full grown woman who is obsessed with a teen franchise, but there is nothing at all wrong with losing yourself in a little fantasy every now and then and let’s face it, that’s what Twilight’s all about.
Bella and Edward have the kind of romance we all want for ourselves. It’s dramatic and enthralling. It’s the type of all encompassing love that doesn’t let anything stand in its way – not even blood-sucking vampires or jealous werewolves.
Twilight is a classic love story with a twist. Sure the books are better than the movie (a lot better) and some of the actors are a little awkward and uncomfortable, but Robert Pattinson… wow. So hot. I would… well, we won’t get into that here. There are other websites for that sort of talk.
