I am an avid book reader and love the Twilight books. New Moon was not or will it ever be my favorite book of the series, but I do have to say that New Moon the movie was far better than Twilight the movie. They really didn't stray to far from the book and they also didn't bring in a lot of stupid extra stuff. Fo the most part I enjoyed the movie and would go see it again.
I am a true HP book fan. I love the books. Some of the movies are a good compliment to the book and this one was just that. Was there differences? Yes. Did they add extra stuff and take away stuff? Of course. Did they forget the most important stuff from the book? Yes, example the fight at Hogwarts and our beloved head masters funeral. Despite all of these things the movie was very good. I would pay to see it again.
