    I went to see it, last night. At the 7:05 showing at my theater, it got sold out friday moring. But, my friends & I had all bought our tickets on fandango.

    It was so crowded, the first time I've ever seen so many people going to see a movie. Although I've never been at a very popular movie on the very first nights. I got there at around 6, and meet up with some of my other friends. There was a huge line to get into the movie, while they cleaned up from the last showing. They had an area roped off for people to stand waiting and it went all the way around the concession stand.

    It was so crowded inside, my group of friends took up a whole row. There were also people sitting in the very front row to watch, I don't get how you'd do that. You'd be like looking up in the air, the whole time.

    People also would yell at random parts, when Edward and all the guys came on people would go crazy. Then at kissing scences, everyone would like clap or go aww. Which was also a first, I've never been to a movie where people would scream when certain people came on or at certain scences.

    Anyways, GOOD movie

    It was pretty quiet at our theater. We got their an hour early armed with our starbucks and stood in line outside...its not bad here, it was actually pleasant. I had a 28 year old woman and her boyfriend in front of me, he saw our coffee and immediately ran and got her one, I told her she better hold on to him.

    They were really nice and I enjoyed talking to them, I thought I would hate the whole opening night crowd thing. My daughter knew the girls behind us so it worked out great.

    My daughter was a little disappointed, I really like the movie and the scenes, I thought it was pretty true to the book.

    Hmm.. .the first half of the movie was rough for me. It just doesn't seem to flow properly or something. Like it is just a mish mash of random scenes or something?? Once I got past that annoyance I really liked it. My favorite scene was with the piano and Bella's Lullaby.
    Jasper reminded me of Edward Scissorhands... Robert was to stiff -literally- he doesn't move his arms while he is walking and it seems like he never really knows what to do with his hands

    I am going to see it again tonight (alone *cry*). Last night some girl decided to take a potty break in the middle of the kiss scene and completely ruined it for me. I looked down to pick my bag up off of the floor and by the time she had passed me it was over. Oh well..

    I'm a little moody, and right now my thoughts and not flowing properly either, but overall I LOVED the movie

    I saw it this morning. I haven't read the books but I plan on it. I thought it was okay. I do love a vampire story though. I bet I'll like the book better. I didn't feel like the characters were fleshed out enough. I didn't feel alot of empathy for any of them. No academy awards for sure but I did like it.
    BTW, I helped my friend chaperone her girl scout troop! I was expecting the worst but everyone in the theatre was pretty polite. Lots of tween/teen giggles though. It was fun to see them so excited about something. Reminded me of when I was that age and the latest Teen Beat or 16 magazine came out

    It is most definitely better the second time


    I can't wait for New Moon!! I'm a little shocked that they signed on for a sequel so soon. I wonder when they will aim for release? Maybe next Christmas

    I previewed it Wednesday night. The movies got to the theatre around 11 pm but we didn't get done with our work until about 1 am. Then it took maybe an hour an a half to build the movies. So I started watching it close to 3 in the morning and didn't get home until about 5:30 am. It was definitely worth it though. I was waaaay excited to watch it but nervous to because when the first showing it's usually messed up and I have to run all the way upstairs to stop the movie and adjust the film.

    I'm going to definitely watch it again though, probably just wait until a morning week show so it's not crowded at all.
