Twilight: The Movie


So, we all know about the release of this certain movie...that involves a guy named Edward and a girl named Bella. I saw it last night, and I thought, since I haven't had that much time to read and haven't made a blog post in a while... so what the heck! I will make a blog post about a movie based on a book.
I went to go see this movie with someone who HAS read the book and someone who HASN"T read it. So my experience was interesting, the thing that I didn't like was there was a lot of inside jokes that viewers only would have gotten if they read the book.
Personally I didn't like the actor who played Bella and thought that Edward was more appealing in the movie than in the book. I went to school today, and of course almost all of the girl in my class had gone and seen it, some people I noticed had started reading the first book, which makes me happy because those people normally don't read. I think that movie had that effect, because the person that I went with who hadn't read it, started reading it the after we got back from the movie theater.
I admit though, I think this movie could have been way better, today for about 40 minutes during lunch, girls in my class and I fangirled the movie and the book series. If you haven't read the book series than you should read it, and then, after you read the first book, go see the movie.
