I've watched the movie...all I can say is that since it was a movie adaptation of the book(Twilight), I can say that the story pacing was fast,although I haven't read the book yet but I'm planning to just you wait!...umm...back to the movie, some scenes were not portrayed elaborately as you would in a book, but I guess since the book was too long to be put into the big screen, they just portrayed the scenes a little just so you know they happened...^^.
But I'll give it a 9/10!!! Go Alice!

I haven't read the book, but I've just watched it today.
Blessed Devil is not happy. He is not happy at all.
The movie was shit. It was really fast-paced. I felt as though Bella just met Edward and she fell in love just like that. If I understand it correctly, Edward is addicted to her scent. Well he does have to be on crack to fall in love with Bella. In fact it even affected Edward's head. "I feel very protective of you" "I don't have the strength to stay away from you anymore" Oh, shut up you assfucker pedophile.
This movie boasts one of the worst writing I've ever seen.
There was absolutely no development between Edward and Bella. It was as if Bella saw Edward and then "Oh my gash he's gorgeous I'm in love!" and then Edward went, "Damn, that ho smells nice. Oh, I want some more of that crack, nigga, and no wolves is go'n take away MAH weed yo!"
And although it has "vampires" and "lycans" in it, this movie fails to be dark enough. The beauty of dark movies lies in their ability to strain your emotions, to make you think, or to scare you. This movie does none of those - the only highlights of it are the lame dialogues of Edward and Bella, which is why it gets really boring after a while.
AJ was right - this story is shallow. Their angst-filled behavior is treated as the most important thing in the world. It doesn't feel like it was professional writing. It felt like it was written by a teeny-bopper with way too much time on her hands. With all the hype this movie gets, it was a huge disappointment.
Fuck this shit, I hope The Joker makes it into the book and kills all these motherfuckers off.
Joker: An immortal, eh? The problem with being immortal is that if you can live forever, the torture never ends. So don't take your immortality so seriously, Edward. Let's put a SMILE on that face.
*imagines* Yeah, that would be a much better story.

^ I agree. There wasn't much blood. THERE SHOULD BE GORE. I mean, we're talking about vampires here. Where's the blood-sucking action? James was hot. HE WAS THE SEX. He's the only person who looked a bit like what a vampire should be. WATANUKI IS BETTER

BD, the book is WORSE. It's naturally fast paced. That's why I HATED it. Believe me BD, you would've been more irritated with the book. In the movie, Bella and Edward weren't as sappy. Jebus, that book must burn. The fast pace made it seem like it was written by a fanfiction author. Some 14-year-old in her pink bedroom... The movie didn't irritate so much. I loved Jasper and Alice. I loved them in the book, and in the move. They're so cute! What really irked me was that the Rosalie in the movie was not drop dead gorgeous. The book described her to be incredibly beautiful...and she was not. She wasn't even thin. Rosalie's supposed to look like a super model. Actually, she's supposed to look like a super model princess! It annoyed me so much. I loved how Edward was such a spaz.XD But you know what I loved most? Kristen Stewart (the girl who played Bella) said: "Everyone who reads Twilight is a retard." Ha! Even the girl who played the main character thought the book was stupid!XD

I laughed. I suddenly felt myself falling in love with Kristen Stewart, no matter how retarded her role is supposed to be. At least I know she's smart in real life. And I understand completely what she's going through. I mean, yeah, I would be pissed if I had retarded screaming fangirls following me around. Plus points to her for telling the crowd "You guys are retarded and have nothing to do with this creative process and I really don't want to hear you celebrate in front of me."
The book is worse? Even more fast-paced? What happened with the book?
Edward: Damn, I hate this woman. I can't read her mind. Bella: Edward is a meanie. :c *one day later* Edward: Oh hi Bella. Now that I've gotten some sleep, I've realized how much you meant to me. But a relationship with you would be kind of dangerous, so- Bella: I don't care! TAKE ME, MAN-MEAT!
Oh, by the way, my classmates told me earlier that the movie got better during the ending (the climax).
Uh, no. The ending was just as shitty as everything else. It was as if the author got tired of writing romance all the time and just stuck a generic, evil vampire somewhere along the way. Random characters who come in late in the movie is not cool - not good writing. In fact, it's terrible writing.
I better end this right here before I get another paragraph on and not be able to stop typing.

They're already filming the 2nd movie.
This will be craptastic. The 2nd book was the worst book in the series. Nothing happens till like...the last 5 chapters? What are they gonna put in the movie? Bella getting down with her emo self?

Some 14-year-old in her pink bedroom... <-- ...Me? No wait, 15 pala ako. ): You know, I used to hate twilight like ... Eww twilight. Especially Bella. She's lucky to have tasty blood. And HELL YES THE BOOK IS CRAP. Which is why, to me, the movie was good. Haha. Seriously, if you read the book and imagined the movie -- woah, at least the movie had funny parts. ... I'm not really sure if they weer meant to be funny. Edward: *With his nose all ... yeah* *looks through microscope* ... Anaphase... Bella: *hot manly voice* Can I check? Edward: *pushes microscope - constipatedly* Microscope: *Makes romantic squeaky sounds* THAT part was funny. I laughed at every scene. I mean, Did you see Edward SPARKLE!?!?!?!!?! Did THAT dazzle you? ... No, but sure, I'd like a boyfriend who strips his clothes, reveals he has no abs, and shines like a diamond, literally under the sun. I know Jasper was ... constipated too but he's so ... adorable. Carlisle's face was really sharp and I didn't know where his forehead ended cause his hair was all too light. Rosalie. ... Omg, Rosalie's supposed to be "I'm too hot for your fezz bitch" and all snobby at you but that's okay she's hot but then no....She's not hot. They should get that girl thinner by the 2nd movie. I suddenly love Bella, I mean Kristen Stewart. She sounds smart, just not in the movie. And she makes Bella look little less ... slutty. Robert Pattinson was okay too ... just fix his hair. He was all "I don't care if this movie fails" anyway. I'm pissed at how Stephanie Meyer actually made an appearance. I mean no wonder the book's all sappy and crappy and....not happy (Ay) I know I'm not good at writing, and my grammar's all.....wrong now but still, I could've written that book. It's all fan-fic sounding. Not the fanfic you guys read, the other ones that .... UGH. Ehem. The movie was STILL funny. Oh yeah, before I forget -- Jacob looks like a walking sea dog, James is manly and Jasper still looks in pain but that's because he's cool like that.

James, Jasper, and Charlie were the coolest characters in the movie. Rosalie's looks still piss me off. She doesn't look like a super model. She looks plain. Charlie is sooo awesome! Why isn't anyone talking about him? He was so cool in the movie! All awkward and...awesome. It broke my heart when Bella was being mean to him...
