Close Adaption

I enjoyed the film and was waiting anxiously for the release date to come. Saw the film on opening day with a lot of giggling tweens!!!
READ the entire series and was expecting this one to be much darker than the director allowed it to be...I also was disappointed how cheesy the filmaker made the love scenes...
But overall I loved the action scenes, the internal angst from both male leads and how some scenes not disclosed in the book was revealed immediately in the movie. (the reader doesn't know for SURE that Victoria is behind the army nor aware that the Volturi visits Seatle before they leave for Forks) but it was believable. I also enjoyed the condensed versions of all three flashbacks (Rose, The Origins of the Pack & Jaspers)
I am Team Edward ALL the way but found my self giggling just a little when the entire audience clapped when she finally hooked up with J!
Go see it, you won't be disappointed, even with all the cheesiness

Best Hulk Movie Made!

I was so sceptical about buying tix for this movie. The first "Hulk" movie done with Eric B and made by artistically inclined Ang Lee, Killed the genre for me. I am a HUGE Marvel Hero enthus...and I just couldn't take another sucky remake.
But this one...
OMG, so frickin good. Believably close to the story line. Edward is a fabulously character actor and this role's another one of his bests. Hey! Liv Tyler was beautiful but sappy at times, and Tim Roth was over the top many times, but over all the action was non-stop, the movie flowed continuously, and the dialogue was never boring. And the CGI Hulk? Was he awesomely done or what? Seeing Tony Stark at the end, Lou F and Stan Lee were my favorite highlights...They even through in a scene from The Courtship of Eddie's Father on the screen for a nano...How Hot is that?
See this movie!!! A Sequel with more than one Marvel hero or even Villian is eminent!
