The exiting tweeners are talking about how it wasn't like the book.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I'm totally going to see it.
But are you going to squeal?
ETA: In all honesty, I'm curious-- but I can't cope with the thought of going to see it in a theatre with the screeching adolescents. Maybe in a few weeks after the fervor and the T-giving holidays have passed.
Yes, in our local school district the kids are off all week. Your best bet is waiting until Monday the 1st.
I've liked Hardwicke's other films and I haven't read the book. I'ma go see it.
But are you going to squeal?
I don't think I could if I wanted to.
I suspect I'll go to a matinee. Mayhap fewer tweens, since going to an afternoon movie would be LAME.
I really want to go see it with a bunch of buffistas and snark and laugh.
It wasn't until reading E's review that I realized that sparkly is literal.
I'm sure there will be snark when I go.
Oh yeah-- one of the reviews I read called it a cross between being dumped on by a truckful of glitter and a mob armed with Bedazzlers.
I have seen it and i did not like it. there is this one scene where Edward is telling Bella the history of his family coming to Forks and they cut away to a flashback. i thought i was going to pee my pants i was laughing so hard. if i had had some of the hardcore fans around me, i'm pretty sure i wouldn't be typing this now.
I'm going in about 75 minutes, because pre-noon movies are half price ($6) at the AMCs in NYC. I'll get back to you. I've even read the books.
