I never read the books.. and was quite tired of everyone being head over heels about the whole twilight thing..
now ask me who cannot wait for the new movie to come out...:rolleyes: lol
we asre so seeing it.. maybe not the premiere as it´s at midnight. and we´d have to take the kiddo.. but maybe we will heheh
Me, my daughter and my sister in law are going friday nights. She was suppose to get the tickets today so hopefully she did.
I am 48 and I love Edward too:o
I can't wait!! :D I'm taking Friday off work cause it's my birthday and cause I have an agility trial starting in the afternoon. I'm gonna catch the first show on Friday at Metropolis. I still work part-time there and they've only sold 25 tickets so it looks like I get to go for free! YIPPY! :D
I'm 32 and a Twilight fan. ;) :D
My mom, sister, and I are repeating what we did when Twilight came out.
We catch a matinee on Friday, then go out to lunch, and do a little shopping. :cool:
This time, I'm seeing New Moon twice on Friday. That morning and later in the evening with a friend.
I already bought tickets for a Friday night showing and have a babysitter all lined up! Now I just need to get my oldest son healthy :(
Hope he gets better soon we need to compare notes after:D
A friend of mine in Australia got to see it already and said that she was floored and that it was "AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!"
She also suggested that you bring a towel to mop up the drool because they have both Edward and Jacob looking delicious:D
Yeah like I said we need to compare "notes":D
I'm going with five or six friends tonight at midnight. David's on baby duty. :) We are getting to the theater between 9 and 10, so I'm taking it easy today so that I can stay awake past ten tonight, haha. I'll definitely be trying to nap while Clara's napping! I'm excited about the movie, I may even re-read the book today!
I'm 47 and I LOVE Edward too!:D I'm going Mon nite with a Girl Scout Troop. I love to see the giggles and sheer joy :love: I've always loved all things goth. I watched Dark Shadows as a child!
so i heard that they were sold out of tickets??? but a friend of mine asked me if i wanted to go w/ him tomorrow...so like...can you get a ticket??? are they sold out?? like if we go and walk up to buy one are they gonna be like we're sold out! i dunno..that's just what someone told me a while back that you can't even get tickets for it..
Well like it depends on the theater:D
New Moon was great! Loved the werewolves! Jake looks so great, especially after he cuts that nasty hair! ;) I really like the way they ended the movie. And, Eclipse is due to come on June 30th! Awesome!
And, after this movie, it's official...Team Edward all the way, but I'm now on Team Jasper, now, too. :)
Hubby and I checked out Twilight and watched it last night! Now he definitely wants to go see New Moon:D I think we will wait until the crowds thin out though!!
Just got back from new moon, I enjoyed it, would have like a little more Edward but Jacob looked pretty fine.
Anyone else? My sister in law liked twilight better, my daughter liked new moon better, it was a toss up for me.
LOVED it! I thought that it was leaps and bounds better than Twilight. The acting/makeup/overall feel was better. I went all fan girl and squealed a few times:D I love Jacob. I love his character and I LOVE his abs:D
I was pratically dragged by my hair to the see the movie by my sister. I don't like Twilight - at all - and I am guilty of letting people know it. :o Personally, I think Rob Pattison is the ugliest thing in the movie. I have never thought he was cute - even as Cedric Digory in Harry Potter. I don't see the obsession with him and never will. I don't like the Twilight books - but I surprisingly enjoyed the movie a little. I am not much of a romance person so that put me to sleep - but Jacob is HOT (and has always been). The werewolves were awesome, the graphics for them were awesome and I found them kinda cute. Werewolves are my favorite "Monster", so that's not really a surprise. I loved the big Jet Black one. :love:
Alyssa, sometimes I think we are related. Finally, you said what I was thinking. I don't think I would be interested in these movies but I would consider giving it a shot.Quote:

The only thing I don't get is why anyone tries to understand why someone is attracted to someone else. It's a million different things to every person. I'm not personally attracted to Robert Pattinson outside of Twilight. I love the character of Edward Cullen, though. Attraction is not meant to be explained or understood, really. It just **is**. I'm sure everyone has been attracted to someone else in their lifetime that other people didn't get. Why try to figure it out? And, it's not always about the physical appearance of a person, either. ;)
Thanks Candace!!Quote:

I suppose I watch too much tv and I see all the "heart throb" stories way way way too much. Thinking it was driven by looks, primarily, I was perplexed as to why anyone could see this guy as good looking.
In reality, :) it's probably much more than that.
I've seen Rob on every talk show on the air but I haven't seen the movies. I should correct myself to say::I don't see the attraction myself but I'm sure many many many people do see him in ways I don't see.
With what I said before, I can honestly say I feel guilty that I wasn't able to see what he has to offer in so many ways to so many other people. Because everyone else liked him so much, I suppose I felt like I should try to do the same. Make sense? :)
Don't join the crowd unless you want to. ;) If you aren't into vampire love stories, that's cool, man, we still like you! haha. I've not always had a thing for vampires, but I definitely like the whole bad boy with a good heart thing. So, the relatively new (or at least new to me) phenomenon of a vampire who doesn't want to be a monster is very appealing to me!Quote:

But, on the other side of the coin, Russell Crowe makes my heart flip flop. And, there's nothing "pretty" about him!
And, don't get me wrong, I know there are many people attracted to others strictly on good looks, but beauty is definitely in the eyes of the beholder. One person's trash is another's treasure, right? :D
I love the opening night crowd. My 17 year old was rolling her eyes at all the squeels when Jacob and Edward took their shirts off, I thought it was hysterical!
You are definitely right!! I probably sounded shallow and I am as far away as a person can get for being shallow. I always think it's what a person has inside that's going to be lasting and important. Nothing wrong with good looks but it isn't in my top 5 important things.Quote:

Kari, I think I was crazy enough to believe that the attraction described on tv was purely for looks. People refer to Rob as "hot" and I took it as a looks thing. I heard Rob say he is exhausted from touring to promote the movie. Poor guy looks worn out. I don't mind the disheveled look either. With him, I think I worry that he looks sick sometimes and extremly thin. This must be my motherly instincts kicking in. Like saying, "He looks like he could use a home cooked meal and some sleep".:)
I'm not really sure why the vampire thing has gotten so popular. Back in the day, it was Dark Shadows--dating myself terribly. I guess there is a certain darkness involved here. Dark romance.
Maybe this older lady needs to go see the movie and find out what I'm missing!! Huh? :D
Part of it for me is its something me and my daughter both enjoy, we have our little routine now of going on opening night. She is all worried that next year when the next one comes out she will be off to college.
This really makes sense to me. What a great reason for falling in love with this whole thing. When my daughter calls today, I need to ask her if she's going to see the movie. If we lived closer, it would be something we could enjoy too. Everything we can do together is extra special to me. I hope you two get to go again next year. :)Quote:

I've always loved vampire movies, but I don't see this as a vampire movie at all. I didn't see any teeth:p
Now on the other hand for the few minutes you get to see the werewolves I was loving it.LOVED the werewolves!
Nope, don't think I'll ever be a Twilight junkie. I just think it's a sappy love story:o
I love hearing everyone's take on this movie, etc.
My daughter loves it too!! She is planning to see the movie soon.:)
I love, love, love werewolves. I have researched the "history" of this myth and I find it fascinating, even if they aren't real. I like to think they are. :D Kari, I believe you're right - but I really meant look-wise. I just do not understand the claims that he is "the most gorgeous thing to grace our eyes" as it said in magazines. He is not appealing to me in the least bit, that's just my opinion. I don't really like "Edward Cullen" either, I find him really really really creep and stalkerish lol. :D I've gotten into a few popular obsessions like Harry Potter and POTC, but it's just grown off me to like what everyone else likes because it kills it for me. I personally like weird things that alot of people my age don't like Star Trek: The Original Series, Star Wars, and old sci-fi, old cartoons (looney tunes), and newer cartoons like spongebob lol. I am just a kid at heart and I always will be.
That was one of my favorite things about the experience! I love the fact that, despite how jaded people can be, "little girls" still squeal over "little boys", I think it's wonderful! It made me giggle and I even squealed a couple times myself, simply because it was ok to do it. ;)Quote:

If you feel like it, and are in the mood for it, give 'em a shot.
I really think my attraction to the Twilight series and even the new tv show, The Vampire Diaries, is the bad boy turned good thing. Even in "real life". My husband was the guy I wouldn't date in school, because he was a bad boy. But, he has a good heart and has outgrown a lot of that. BUT...I do like the thought that there is still a little of that rebel in him. ;)
It's all good! I do think he's good looking, though, too. ;) Like I said earlier, he is too thin, but I love his bone structure (that sharp jaw line is nice)...I like his hair and his eyes, too. Edward is a great character, and I love his loyalty and devotion to Bella, even his need to protect her, almost to a fault. However, with that being said, I could not date someone like that. Most of the characters in movies or books are nothing like the kind of man I actually love in "real life."Quote:

If I like something that's "in", it's not because it's "in". But, along the same line, I'm not going to dislike something just because it's the "it" thing. I think that's just as goofy.
just Saw it and I think I drooled a little.. hehe..
woo hoo shirt off.. lol
awesome werewolfs..
I too am not that fon of Edward.. although some shot made him look really nice.. but just some.. so hot.. and I totally fell for the character... I was saying in my mind yes yes (at the end).. haha..
Am I the only one who thought that the scene in the elevator in Italy was one of the funniest things EVER?? :D:D
I honestly can't remember what happened, do you mind describing it (if you think it's spoiler material, send me a pm!)? I am curious now and can't seem to picture the scene!Quote:

Walk through the dark creepy halls of Volterra with the dark creepy vampires in dark creepy robes.... Then climb on the elevator that is surprisingly well lit and squeeze in lots of creepy looking vampires. THEN watch the elevator move and listen to the cheesy elevator music. Apparently even vampires can't escape the horrible muzak that plagues elevators everywhere....
Maybe I'm just crazy but I thought it was hilarious.:D
talking about that scene. Don't worry, no spoilers unless you feel spoiled by knowing that at one point they are all together on an elevator :D

I remember the elevator music, now. Everyone laughed, it was funny. I didn't think it was roll on the floor funny, but I did snicker. ;)
