I read the books many times so I could fill in the gaps that the movie left. To make a great Twilight movie it would have to have been a good 3 hours and the mainstream movie goer wouldn't bother with it. So, I am happy with it when I think of it as Twilight -the movie, separate from Twilight -the book brought to life. Rob Pattison is Edward right down to the crooked smile! I enjoyed it and will go again and buy the DVD which already contains footage from the trailers that was cut from the movie. The director did put in a lot of small details for the true Twilighter, like a chess set, angel wings, wolf artwork, etc...It's like an eye-spy movie!
