Twilight Review

Angie wanted a Twilight review, so here is my opinion. I do have to preface this by saying that I usually try to be in bed by 11 p.m. I have never done anything like going to a movie at midnight (CRAZY). I never felt like it was worth it--and I now think I am right. The only reason why we did that is because my neighbor called and booked out the whole showing and then she opened it up and sold tickets to neighbors/friends/family--I just thought it would be something different and fun for Whitney. She did assigned seating which was nice and I was one of the first ones to go get my seats, so I chose the front row just above the bar (Provo). She happened to have 5 on the end there, so I called Whitney and asked if she wanted to bring a few friends and she said she did, so I bought all five. Landon started complaining that he wanted to go (he read the books too) so I called and was able to get the one seat below us--in the handicap area. So, we went to the big debut.
I didn't care for it as much as Dana did. Whitney hated it. Landon was about the same as me--we could take it or leave it. I guess we all just get pictures in our heads of the characters and how it should go and when it doesn't, you are disappointed. Whitney didn't like the casting at all--the scenes when they first come in to the cafeteria are laughable--their skin is talcum powder white (hillarious) when Edward runs with Bella on his back it is a comedy (I don't think the movie is supposed to be funny). When I read the books I really wanted her to choose Jacob. I liked him a lot more (Whitney said that she has too the second time reading the books). They don't show much of Jacob and he was ugly--not at all the picture I had in my head.
Overall, I think it was ok. I would probably go see it, just not the midnight showing. It was a little quirky.
