I saw Twilight after reading the book (which I was a 'late bloomer" for both the book and movie), and I thought it was AWFUL! It didn't stack up to the book at all. But New Moon was amazing. The graphics were better, the acting was better...everything about it was just much more realistic, and much closer to being on point with the book! I am definitely planning to see it again soon! I didn't really appreciate the screaming girls during the movie, but it sort of comes with the territory of seeing the first show!
