Im trying to come up with a decent title…
Posted on Dec 03, 2008 under All Me., Blog Friends | 9 Comments…because I dont want to be like the rest of the world going crazy over Twilight.
But I am. I am crazy about Twilight.
Edil looked after the kids last Sunday so I can go watch the movie with friends Joy and Kelly in Makati. Think about all the planning that outing involved with me living 3 hrs away from the city
(Heehee) – but that deserves another post.
I love love love love Twilight. I love the complexities they have on love and family and how selfless it can be when it is true. I love the dialogue. I love the characters. I fell in love with Cullen family. I love Edward Cullen (who wouldnt? LOL)
In fact, I finished the books (Book 1-4) in 3 days. Well make it 2 and a half. So though I was like a walking zombie..ehem..vampire afterwards with coffee as my blood, it was really worth it. It helped that I watched the movie before reading Books 2-4 because it was easier for me to see them. And conversing via email with Joy and Kelly about it was more exciting, we were like teenagers majorly crushing on a hot star. Ehem. We also were like discussing important issues you know..how Edward was rock hard solid and how Bella can be so torn between Jacob and Edward e yun pala……(spoiler).
Anyway, about the movie…spoilers are ahead so dont read if you havent watched it.
The movie kinda sucked. In a way that the most important parts in the book I was looking forward at the movie was deleted, changed or condensed (the meadow scene, the conversation at the car when he first admitted he was a vampire,and the way Edward sucked James’ venom from Bella – he was able to control it himself and Carlisle didnt stop him)
BUT BUT BUT:
1. Id give credit to the casting. Ooooh lalala. Love them all. Jacob could be taller but after reading Books 2-4 I can totally imagine him being Jacob. Robert P was perfect for Edward. He really is hot in the movie.
But I love the Cullen family the best. Grabe.
2. Favorite scenes in the movie:
- When the Cullen family appeared for the first time the cafeteria. The whoosh whoosh and gracefullness I read in the book was really there. COOOL.
- The Baseball Game
- James. James. James. He was good.
- The Prom.
- The scenes where Edward took her up the trees LOL
- The scenes at the Cullen home.
- When Edward and Bella were an item already and they went to school with Edward donning shades! WOOOOOAH hotness.
- But most of the all, the hot kissing scene in Bella’s bedroom:
The sexual tension was there all throughout the movie (and the books I might add), I was always screaming like a banshee when things progressed and then stopped and then started and then stopped. BWAAAH! So frustrating.
I love Twilight.
Really loved it.

I sooo loved twilight too Aggie! And I couldn’t agree with you more. Rob P is HOT!
I was also disappointed in the movie but I keep reminding myself it was an adaptation and a budget movie at that. hahaha! Sabi nila you have to watch it daw a second time to enjoy it esp. if you’ve already read the book hahah! But yeah the casting was really cool!
Loved the pics you posted here too Aggie!

omg, I’m so happy you love Twilight, I have someone else I can gush to about Edward, Bella, and the rest of them sparkly vampires! I LOVED the movie, but of course it has its weaknesses and some I could live with, others I couldn’t but what the hey it’s an amazing film just the same. I’m still on my Twilight high, obviously, lol.
Actually another scene I love: When he talks to her for the first time in Biology with the whole microscope thing **kiliiiiiig**
(and I really should blog about it, among other things, but I’m just so tamad)

LIke I said, I love how Edward came to life with Robert Pattison
