Twi...Hype



Well I tried to read the Twilight books and just couldnt get into them. So I didnt even finish the first book. Someone told me to watch the movie first and then try to read the books and it would be different. Well I watched the movie yesterday and I dont think it changed my mind. I couldnt get into the movie and struggled watching the full movie. The awkward acting and shiny vampires just didnt do it for me. So I guess I will not be joining the millions on the Twilight band wagon. Sorry ladies...I know a few of you like it.

Thank you it's seriously one of the dumbest pop culture phenomenon's to date in my opinion. Let's leave this one to the emo kids :-)

Sorry Kasie, I'm a Twilighter. I dissagree with watching the movie first. They did a good job with it, but I think of it as more of a suppliment to the books. I determined earlier this week (as I read the books yet again) that the reason that I like them so much has little to do with the Vampires and other supernatural occurances, so much as it does with love. As I read the books I feel like a silly 15 year old girl, just getting the beginings of first love.(yes I am completely neurotic) As the books progress it becomes so much more. I think that's why they've been so popular with women. I mean, isn't that what we all dream of? Having an unconditional soul wrenching love that fills you to overflowing, and knowing that the object of your affections feels the same. Yet this is all put together with enough drama and tension to keep any normal person from vomiting from ooey gooey overload.(yes I feel silly, even as writing this) But Dang, I caught the Twilight bug, it's very infectous. :)
