This movie was excellent compared to twilight. Much Much better graphics and acting, and it followed the original story line better. Though it did deviate a bit at the end. I also believe that Stephanie Meyer was more involved in the making of these movies, than any of the many author who's books have been "filmafied" recently, and if she saw them fit to air, who are we to complain - it's her world to do with as she pleases.
I love her writing style, who are we to say her imagination cannot add tidbits like the way Harry Clearwater really died. Most good authors write for their own enjoyment and the love of sharing their thoughts and fantasies with others. That's why her books are such a hit! Because she telling us her day dreams.
