SPOILER ALERT!!!!! SPOILER ALERT!!!If you haven't seen Twilight yet then i warn you, there will be much bashing and praising of the characters, their reactions, the plot, etc. Can't say I didn't warn you!
The first thing I noticed when I saw Twilight was that every single person living in Forks had really white teeth. And by really white, I mean really really white. Hey, teeth bleaching is important in those small towns, you know.
Now Twilight, as a whole, was a pretty awesome movie. There was much more humor than actual romance. It was enjoyable and it was paced really well. It also followed the book a lot more religiously than other movies. Almost every scene was taken from the book and those that weren't would've fit in well. The end clearly yelled, "SEQUEL!" I give it a 9.5/10, just because of a few little inconsistencies. Great read. Awesome movie. See it if you have the time.
Bella. In my opinion, Kristen Stewart was perfectly cast for the role of Bella. She wasn't what I first had in mind but she's a great actress and has a lot of talent. Now Bella herself was a great big contrast. On the one hand she was a take charge kind of girl. She knew what she wanted and went for it. And on the other she was a whiny, needy little girl who just wanted her vampire to stay with her.
For example, there was a scene where Bella and Edward were in Bella's room. They had just kissed for the first time and things were getting real hot and heavy. Edward tried to gain a little control and started to pull away. But Bella wasn't having any of that and practically dragged him to her. She crawled into his lap and they somehow made in onto the bed with Edward on the top. Things seemed to be going great until Edward flew away from the bed and hit the wall. Uh-uh-uh, Bella. Edward doesn't like to be touched there. The 108 year old virgin must be shy!!! ☻
On the other hand, there was a scene at the far end of the movie. Bella had just woken up in the hospital and her mom was there. Edward was "sleeping" in the corner and had been there all night.
(Stalker). When Renee left, Edward had come to the bed and said that they couldn't be together and Bella turned into a blubbering bundle of nerves. she was like,"You... you can'... I...
ahhh... why would you... just don't... don't say thing like that... Never say that." Slow your role there Princess. You almost died and all you can think about is Edward and him leaving. Straighten out your priorities. White People!
Now Edward was a little weird. Robert
Pattinson did a wonderful job with Edward. he was scary, loving, desperate, and glittering; all the things needed to be a Twilight Vampire. What's hilarious about Edward is his answer to all of life's questions: "Just Google It." Now what's not supposed to be there is that constant look of concentration on his face.
Miya Gray that he just had a case of extreme constipation. And after great consideration, I had to agree. His constant look of pain made us laugh throughout the film. Especially when he's trying to dance with Bella in his room. When he hoisted her onto his back and scrambles up a tree, he resembles a pink, hairless monkey. Just call him Edward, the Tree Hugger.
Or you can call him, The Mega Ultra Super Stalker! I know he says that he's just, "looking out for her," but him being in the exact place at the exact time is what surprised her the most. And the totally creepy and disturbing way that he watches her when she sleeps. "I like watching you sleep. It's fascinating." Can you say Hannibal
Lector on lion blood?
During the fight scene between James and Edward, things got a little carried away and they ended up having hot wall sex.
James's legs were the same thing, wrapped around Edward's hips, Edward buried in his neck and there was much growling and posturing going on. That is, until Edward ripped off
Demmin's ear. Bite!
One more thing to mention; the sunlight's effect on
vampiric skin. When Edward exposed himself to direct sunlight, his skin glittered and winked like diamonds were embedded into his skin. Kind of weird sounding but the effect was OK.
Vichit joked that people might think of killing vamps for their skins and "taking out' the diamonds.
Emmet and Rosalie looked great even though nobody happened to know why she was there.
Alice looked awesome. Her squeaky, 7-year-old-
girly voice was a disappointment though. She entered decibels of notes which haven't been spoken since the dawn of time. And she found them.
Jasper's hair was awesome, he was a great choice. However, his bugged out,
goggley eyes were a bit disconcerting. And his expressionless face gave nothing away. Like one of those Greek Marble Statues or the guards in front of the Buckingham Palace.
Charlie was a great success. Billy Burke is a very talented and amazing actor. Charlie's role was funny and light-hearted. His best line is, "I put another pepper spray in your bag."
The most out of this world part of the story was when Mike Newton, wearing an alien mask, was thrusting himself against a bush.
The creepiest part was when Jacob delivered a message from his father, "We'll be watching you," Old, cripple Indians do make the best voyeurs.
During the movie there was an overabundance of
Twizzler promotions. Every time you turned around, someone was either chewing on one or throwing them around. There was also one random black
highschooler, one black vampire, and one black dinner waitress. Kind of a scary picture don't you think? A sea of white with three black dots inter spaced.
Now during the movie
Miya Gray,
Vichit, and I were doing a running commentary on the movie. During the previews we yelled things like, "Burn the Witch", "
Drarry", and "Die Harry Potter Die". Now during the actual movie we made snide comments like, "Bella wants to take Edward to the broom closet." Or "Charlie and Bella sure do look close. Incest."
Miya Gray had finished her popcorn before the movie even started and commenced crushing mine with her fists full.
We got so loud that a mother and her small son had to get up and move to the back in order to hear the movie better. We had a good chuckle about that and the I saw some idiot on their cellphone during the movie. What The Fuck! Don't text while you're in a theatre watching a big screen.
I was like, "What the hell are you doing on your phone. Watch the damn movie."
The movie ended and we stayed in the theatre until the screen had gone light again. We talked to some
GHS kids while the manager was giving us the stink eye. I yelled back to him as we walked out,"We'll stay in the movie as long as we want. Don't rush us."
I got a ride with
Vichit and he regaled me with stories of hilarity and awkwardness that had me laughing my ass off.
Lloydisms of the Day:
- Yelling lewd and inappropriate statements in a crowded movie theatre in front of kids and parents is as enjoyable as watching someone fall. You just wanna do it again and again.
- Never sit next to Miya Gray in a movie theatre with popcorn; She'll eat it.
- Voyeurism and Stalking are encouraged in Twilight so go nuts and spy on your neighbors to your heart's content.
- Absolutely everything can be made into a sexual innuendo!☺I should know!
Adios
