I had an original article that was like 8 pages that said my opinion on every single scene (lol) but I decided to shorten it and put it up here ;D. Ummm... I'm pretty critical, but please don't bash me if you don't agree. This is simply my opinion. It's not like it even matters... lol

One Word: Disappointment. If anyone asked me to describe the movie to them, that is what I would say. It was a disappointment. And, I think that's a generous statement for how awful it was.
(Now, to the people that loved the twilight movie, I'm sorry I don't agree with you. But, again, don't get really angry... just close the window right now because it will get uglier.)
For starters the movie moved much too fast. If I hadn't read the books I would have been confused out of my mind. One second they were becoming friends the next he was angry the next he was all in love (and by the way, did they even tell each other I love you?? I don't even remember them doing that!). It's like they just made some random scenes and pushed them together and didn't even bother to check and see if it worked. It just clashed. And than when he kisses her he says "I've been watching you sleep for the last couple months. Okay, it felt like a couple DAYS, first of all. If I were making the movie, and I was pressed for time, how I would have made it look like it had been months is I would have simply filmed him ignoring her in the bio room a few times, and have Bella "narrate" and say it had been months since he'd talked to me or whatever (even though I really didn't like Kristen's corny narration). It did not work at all.
And, another thing I was disappointed with was how EXTREMELY different it was from the book. I'll admit, some parts stayed very true to the book (the baseball scene, meeting the cullens etc) but most of it was just like "WHAT?". Now I know a bunch of people are going to tell me that it is hard to transfer such a long novel to the screen but, please! I could do better than that. I mean, it's like the screenwriter wanted to find some way to make sure everyone knew it was her movie and not Stephanie Meyer's. And do you know how she did that? She made sure that EVERYTHING was out of order, nothing matched to the book, AND she added just random scenes that had nothing to do with the book or even existed.
Examples? Lets see... one thing that REALLY pissed me off was there was NO Ben... where did he go?? I thought Angela went to the prom with him! Instead they erased Ben and Lauren from the plot completely and Ben and Angela don't even end up together :( Not cool. And, I really liked them. So that seriously bugged me that they got rid of Ben and made Angela be with Eric... who is the creepiest of them all.
Also, who the hell was Weyland? Am I going crazy or was he not even in the book? Why did they insist on adding just random plots that don't even have to do with the book?? FRUSTRATING.
Another thing I seriously disliked was how out of character a lot of the actions/lines were.
One thing that really stuck out in my mind was the meadow scene. First, Edward (RobPatz) is like dragging her by the arm and than he whips her on his back and than he like drops her carelessly to the ground when he gets to the "sun spot" or whatever. That was completely out of character. Edward treats her like a soap bubble (Stephanie's words, not mine :D). He thinks she's so fragile, and on top of that, he wouldn't ever want to hurt her in the littlest of ways.
Bella was out of character quite a lot too...
And I was uber, uber pissed that they left out the scene where James tells Bella about Alice. HELLO!!! That is crucial!!!! URGG! That made me too mad for words!!
The ones who stayed in character the most were Alice, Jasper, Rosalie, and Emmett (who all had the best performances).
Now, I'll stop complaining and say the good things I liked.
I have to say, there wasn't much. It could be because I'm pretty harsh and critical, or it could be simply because the movie was simply BAD. Terrible, actually, would be a more accurate description (in my opinion).
But, I did REALLY enjoy the little snippets of Jalice they gave us. Those tiny little shots of them were way more entertaining than all of the EB combined. The little hand holding shot, the little shot where she was leaning into his chest... awww heart-melting. I loved it<3 I'm definitely going to make a Jasper/Alice video with that stuff when the DVD comes out ;D
Another thing I really liked was the baseball scene. It was so cute and funny and all the Cullens were just so awesome. Jasper's little baseball bat trick was hot, and I loooved Emmett and Edward's clash in the sky<3
I also really liked the short little scene in the jeep. That was great acting and didn't make me feel awkward at all. Thumbs up to Robert and Kristen for that :D.
The acting wasn't that bad, it was mostly just the script. The ones with the most astounding performances would probably be Jackson, Ashley, Taylor, Kellan, and Nikki but everyone did well. It's just that they were given such a sucky script to read from... :( Now, I was , however, disappointed with Kristen's performance for some time. I actually thought she would bring a lot to the role but she didn't. I mean, she was good, but just not as good as anticipating. But, NOTHING was as good as I had anticipated. Except the Jalice scenes. I actually thought they would completely ignore them but they didn't and that made me happy to see some of them. Except, I was mad that we didn't see them at prom :(

So that's what I thought of the movie. Overall, I'd probably give it 3 stars or 2 and 3 quarters of a star (lol) and that's being nice, in my opinion. It was just so bad to me. It sucked. And I LOVED the books... :(

TWILIGHT - chapter 11 - COMPLICATIONS


Everyone watched us as we walked together to our lab table. I noticed that he no longer angled the chair to sit as far from me as the desk would allow. Instead, he sat quite close beside me, our arms almost touching.
Mr. Banner backed into the room then - what superb timing the man had - pulling a tall metal frame on wheels that held a heavy-looking, outdated TV and VCR. A movie day - the lift in the class atmosphere was almost tangible.
Mr. Banner shoved the tape into the reluctant VCR and walked to the wall to turn off the lights.

THE only thing i was scared of, was waking from this perfect dream, for it changes,...

I read this on the internet, and thought it was pretty cool. Please type in your comments, curious what other people think about it. Thanks! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I want a guy that sparkles in the sun
I want a guy thats been pretty much alive since 1901
I want a guy that doesn't sleep at night
I want a guy that will hold me tight
I want a guy with topaz eyes
I want a guy that speaks no lies
I want a guy who will only be mine
I want a guy that is hard as rock
I want a guy who has lived a every hour of the clock
I want a guy whos smile dazzles and shocks
I WANT EDWARD CULLEN!!!!!!!
(ps i have trouble dealing with the fact he is a fictional character)

TWILIGHT - chapter 8 - PORT ANGELES


Jess drove faster than the Chief, so we made it to Port Angeles by four. It had been a while since I'd had a girls' night out, and the estrogen rush was invigorating. We listened to whiny rock songs while Jessica jabbered on about the boys we hung out with. Jessica's dinner with Mike had gone very well, and she was hoping that by Saturday night they would have progressed to the first-kiss stage. I smiled to myself, pleased. Angela was passively happy to be going to the dance, but not really interested in Eric. Jess tried to get her to...

End of Chapter 14:

The wolf clan was kinda awesome, except for the crappy animation and the fact that they're allergic to shirts.

Okay, I'll admit that I haven't laughed this hard at a film since I saw The Hangover last summer. Seriously, what was the plot here? I actually found the first film to be much better than this travesty. You can find my review of the first movie link. I'll go through it like I do with all movies. Pros and cons, then an overall.

Pros

The Volturi

Finally! Some ACTUAL vampires!! The Volturi I found were pretty awesome because, you know, they actually were cruel, soulless, mean, and did some actual VAMPIRING. The part towards the end where a tour group of humans is led directly to them and you hear...

TWILIGHT - chapter 1 - FIRST SIGHT


When we entered the classroom, Angela went to sit at a black-topped lab table exactly like the ones I was used to. She already had a neighbor. In fact, all the tables were filled but one. Next to the center aisle, I recognized Edward Cullen by his unusual hair, sitting next to that single open seat.
As I walked down the aisle to introduce myself to the teacher and get my slip signed, I was watching him surreptitiously. Just as I passed, he suddenly went rigid in his seat. He stared at me again, meeting my eyes with the strangest expression...

TWILIGHT - chapter 1 - FIRST SIGHT


It was beautiful, of course; I couldn't deny that. Everything was green: the trees, their trunks covered in moss, their branches hanging with a canopy of it, the ground covered with ferns. Even the air filtered down greenly through the leaves.
It was too green - an alien planet.
Eventually we made it to Charlie's. He still lived in the small, two-bedroom house that he'd bought with my mother in the early days of their marriage. Those were the only kind of days their marriage had - the early ones. There parked on the street in front of the...

Chapter 1- Waking Up

I opened my eyes. Was I dead? Whatever I was...... dead or alive. Something was different. I remembered the sound of rushing wind as I had quickly moved downward, away from the safe and stable ground. I remembered the feeling of sickness in the pit of my stomach. I suddenly hadn't wanted so badly to die.

Suddenly I heard two males speaking in another room. "She's awake," one of them announced. His voice, I didn't recognize. There was something about it though that seemed vaugely familiar....

Best time of the day: seventh period five minutes left until the bell rings. I sat in my desk next to Edward, tapping my foot nervously. He reached over and put his hand on my leg to stop it.

“ Are you anxious for some reason?” He wondered
His hand lingered on my thigh.

“You’ll find out soon enough.” I said grinning to myself. His eyebrows pushed together, and I laughed out loud.

He grinned-removed his arm from my leg- but remained suspicious.

The final bell rang, and I let out a sigh of relief. He led me to his car where Alice joined us. “We can go shopping next week. Jaz and I have...

Hey guys. I have begun writing this book from Nessies point of veiw. I hope you enjoy. Please leave any comments. I will post the next chapter soon!


I will never age again. I can stay with my family forever. I can stay with Jacob forever, I thought to myself as I watched the stars from the huge glass wall in Esme’s beautifully design sitting room. I can end my human life now; it’s time to start my vampire one.
I hardly noticed when Jacob slid his arm over my shoulder.
“Happy Birthday,” he whispered in my ear, “why don’t you come and join in the festivities, Emmet’s made a great...

They all stare at me like I'm some Greek god. I just don't feel comfortable here. I had agreed to join their coven, and the first thing I heard was a giggle from the kid... Renesmee, was it? It was like she wanted me here. That vision of hers was amazing and beautiful. But it looked like... me. It had the face of a thousand angels... did I really look that nice? "So where did you come from?" Carlisle asked. Alice and Jasper were gone somewhere, whoever they were. I didn't answer Carlisle's question. He didn't try again. Taking in everything at once was impossible. I darted out the door without...

This is Bella dwelling on how her life turned out. It is supposed to be if Alice never saw her jump off the cliff, so they didn't go to the Volturi, Edward is still alive somewhere but she hasn't seen any of the Cullens since her disastrous birthday party. Enjoy!


“Goodnight Mama!”

“Goodnight sweetie, I’ll see you bright and early in the morning, ready for fishing with Grandpa ok? Love you”

I hugged and kissed my two, adorable children and wished them goodnight.

Oh, how big they were getting! Ben was almost eight! How I loved our little Ben, just like his father. The same sun-kissed,...

For all you guys that have been waiting, here's Issue 4! I don't know if it's as good as the others, it;s getting hard to come up with ideas! Please comment and tell which topics/specific ones are your favourites so I can make them better! Love you!

-Bella and Edward should sooo not be together. I thought Bella didn’t like anything cold and wet? Well Edward is certainly ice cold, and he is so soppy he could be the King of wetness.

I so don’t understand why people like Robert Pattinson more than Taylor Lautner, but hey I’m not complaining, it means more Tay-Tay for me-me!

My wedding was coming ever closer and although Rosalie, Alice, Esme and I all poured our hearts into preparing, we knew it probably wouldn’t ever happen. I really did want to marry Edward. I wanted to be his wife and with every day that passed I was getting closer to it but it felt as if I was being teased.

This is a Fanfic I'm working on, called When Worlds Collide. I'm posting the link, hoping everybody will give it a chance.
It has over 10,000 views and almost 300 reviews so far!
In my story, Edward is a smart over achiever, Emmett is in jail, and Bella is a mysterious next door neighbor with some issues.
Edward has to decide if he's going to risk everything for Bella, or if he's going to continue to please everybody around him and forget about her.
It's E/B AU-AH with heavy drama. I hope you take a look at at!!

“Step on it, Emmett,” I growled through clenched teeth. My hands gripped the passenger seat armrests as Emmett sped through the streets of Phoenix. Carlisle, Alice, and Jasper were sitting in the back seat.
Every muscle in my body was tense. If Bella was hurt, if that monster made one move against her . . . When I had arrived at the airport with Carlisle and Emmett, and Alice had told me Bella had vanished, I had prayed that she wasn't going anything stupid, prayed that she had only gone back to the hotel for some reason.
But I knew Bella. She wouldn't have left that airport until I arrived....

LOL,I read this in one article :
"Winning the 13th Cycle of America's Next Top Model didn't really change Nicole Fox all that much, because she still remains as awkward as ever. Especially when stumbling upon stars like Robert Pattinson. Caught backstage, Hollywood hotshot a few steps away, what would Bloody Eyeball do?

The CW Source cites a news report from E! Online with this answer: she just bowed her head and walked away. Well, we couldn't possibly expect the dorky redhead to squeal in delight.
