Let’s Talk: New Moon

I’ve never been a Twilight fan, but I’ve never been opposed to it either. I tried it out. I read 20 pages of the first book and watched the first movie. I’m curious to see how the story line goes so I will continue to watch the movies, but in no way do I find myself even remotely enjoying it.

One scene in particular made me laugh a little bit to myself. I was watching this w/ my mother by the way, and there’s that one scene where KStew approaches the shirtless men w/ her ‘tude and then BAM! out of nowhere… JACOB.

My mom nonchalantly says: What happened to animal activists? I’m gonna call them.

Anyways watching the movie tonight brought up a few questions I had:

  • Why is there no consistency in the movie? Scenes coming out of nowhere, nothing feels like it is organized that well… it’s a little hard to watch.
  • The man-bear dogs are so cute!
  • After that grueling fight between Jacob and the shirtless man, everything was resolved with a “sorry?” Talk about drama…
  • The soundtrack to the movie is so good. Death Cab for Cutie AND Lykke Li? It’s too bad the music can’t save the movie.
  • Do you ever feel that Bella puts herself in the worst situations? She’s practically asking for it.
  • Bella commenting on Jacob’s body heat, “You’re like your own sun.” WHAT a pickup line.
  • Bella and Jacob – such a tease
  • Romeo and Juliet reference? Is that really necessary?
  • Edward…be more emo please. Also, there was not enough of him in this movie. More Rob less Kstew please.
  • Kristen Stewart – I dare you to produce one complete sentence without a gasp of air, breaks in between, or stuttering.

So excited for Eclipse!
