Twilight

Went to see Twilight with Dianna and Latisha tonight. Thought I'd write a quick little review. If you've read the books (I haven't) and are a Stephanie Meyer fanatic (Being a Joss Whedon fan I understand fanaticism) then you'll probably love the movie even if some things are out of order or missing from the book. Dianna and Latisha loved it and the rest of the audience seemed to also (there was applause at the end). Me, I found it to be a fairly pleasant movie experience, not great, not horrible, a nice way to spend a couple of hours with the family. For a vampire movie not much action, I would've liked to have seen more of the bad vamps (but I'm not really the target audience). Some of it I just found goofy, the baseball game in a thunderstorm (apparently vampires are a cross between The Flash and Superman), and really the reason vampires avoid sunlight is because they sparkle like diamonds?????. I also didn't really buy the love story between Edward and Bella, felt like a poorly done ripoff of Buffy and Angel. But, like I said at the beginning if you've read the books you'll probably love it, so enjoy.
