So, I have to admit, I was excited to see the movie Twilight. The tickets were pre-ordered off of Fandango, it was opening night, and I had a good friend to keep me company. I even enjoyed the movie Thirteen that was previously done by the same director. So, what could possibly go wrong?.....the entire movie. I have to admit, I set myself up. I had cheated and read the reviews earlier in the day. They all stated that the movie was pretty bad, but in my denial I questioned, "Is it really that bad, or do people just not understand the book?" Here is the answer: It really is that bad! Now, I know I may catch some grief from people due to my horrible review, but there is just no denying the facts. The acting was almost unbearable to watch, the make-up looked like it was done by someone who failed cosmetology school, and the filming made me feel like I was watching a movie on You Tube. You know you are watching a bad movie when you cry, due to laughing so hard, during the intended dramatic scenes. There is only about ten minutes of the movie that I actually thought was good(the baseball scene and the fight scene). So, I hope some good came from me standing in line for three hours on opening night. If I have saved one person from seeing the movie, I have done the world justice. On a good note, It was a fun time and I got a good laugh. Thanks Camille for making the night worth it.

If I Can Prevent One Person From Seeing The Movie Twilight....

Well I probably will get to see it anyway....since everyone I know saw it last night, including my mom, and I was left home with my kids.
Nice pic. Brings back memories of Potter....
So much better than I put it on my blog. It was almost worth it just to walk out and tell people not to go and waste thier time.
It is interesting to hear everyone's take on the movie. Some love it and other's hate it. I wonder which category I will fit into?
