I really bet that A wished he hadn't owed me a chic flick. Because I finally cashed in. We saw New Moon on Saturday.First, let me start off by saying that I am not Twilight crazed. I read the series a year ago and enjoyed them. That's it.
I was curious to see if this movie was going to be any better than the first one. Because let's be honest - Twilight could have been done a lot better.
This movie was done better. The acting was better, and it definitely looked like they had more of a budget this time around.
Here were my issues though:
It was too long.
Parts were incredibly too slow.
They had a hard task, because this was a depressing book. And had they left all of the suicidal banter from the book in the movie, I would still probably be sitting there. So yes, I can tell that they tried.
A was bored out of his mind. I don't really blame him. The only reason I wasn't completely was because I knew the story. I already had a connection with the characters. But I was uncomfortable sitting there for 2 and a half hours.
I had forgotten, since it has been a while since I read through the books, how much of a Jacob fan I am. I don't care what all those Team Edward people say. Jacob is so much better for Bella. Plus, he's a big puppy dog! I found myself getting pissed at the end when she leaves Jacob, after all those near make-out sessions for Edward, without even really an explanation.
Edward, you are an idiot. You don't deserve her.
"But I did it because I love her. I was trying to protect her."
Can it, buster. She should be with Jacob.
"Edward, I want you to change me NOW!"
Shut the fuck up, Bella. You're dumb.
Yes, I will be seeing the other two movies when they come out. They've got me. I'm just curious enough to hand over my money.
I give this film 3 imaginary stars.
