I have not read the books, but I have seen both movies. My main issue, what is with the cry baby vampires?? "Boo-hoo, I am going to live forever", "Poor me, I have no soul", "Waaaaaaaaa, my human died!" Suck it up and get a life, you sissy vampires!! It was good to see the werewolves and how they did things. At least they are embracing life and their powers and not going around crying about everything. I thought the "Vampires Diaries" TV show was full of cry baby vampires and then I had to watch this sob fest. I hope the vampires "grow a set" and stop boo-hooing about everything in the next movie!
