Twilight.


I watched it the day it came out, and while I was waiting on the line to get my ticket. People of all ages, races, backgrounds came to see this. Some haven't even read the book, but the hype around this brought enough people to sell out several time shows. Doesn't surprise me that people are such loyal followers to the media.
I personally liked the books. The movie however is another story, if you haven't read the books you'd like the movie but if you have read the books you'd be disappointed.
Main reason why I stayed 2 hours in a seat was because of the attractive MALE actors. I felt Kristen Stewart her acting was a bit overdone. She never smiled, and the hospital scene was way over dramatic for anyone's taste. I felt that Alexis Bebel would've been a better Bella Swan. There were crucial scenes missing that were in the book but not in the movie. For example, the Lab that required blood and that maded Bella sick and Edward decided to ditch class. Bella also emailed her mother, she hardly called her in the first book. And also Bella did not find out about Edward by reading a book and Googling. Jacaob told her on the beach, when she went to La Push. The movie just missed things like the discussion they had.
The movie did not match up to what the book was.
