Criticize

Last night was the official showing of the movie twilight. We were supposed to watch it at SM MOA but decided to watch it at Cash and Carry instead. It's closer to home and the theatre will not be so crowded, and it will be free seating. I arrived there at around 7:30 PM. Last full show will not start until 9:00 PM.
Surprisingly, the theatre was almost full.

So what is the movie's rating? A ok. Not really that great. If you have read the book you'll surely be disappointed. The pace of the story was so fast. I couldn't remember when the characters actually fell in love with each other. They just fell in love. Just like that. I don't think that there was a book turned into a movie that was great or even satisfying. I wanted to hear the opinion of someone who haven't read the book. Another thing, I don't like how Kristen Stewart played the part of Bella. She was stuttering. Same expression throughout the movie. The only great thing was Edward Cullen. I'm not being bias but I thought he did great except for some scenes where he exaggerated. He's perfect for the role.

An official announcement was made last November 22. Production of the next book, New Moon, will be starting soon. Another movie to look forward to.

Twilight Movie Companion

I really love fully booked! The bookstore where I bought my twilight books. Their books are a little bit expensive compared to other bookstores but at least they have stocks. Last sunday, my siblings and I were at MOA. I don't know what's gotten into me, I went inside fully booked, to kill time I guess. Upon entering, we noticed that there was an addition to the stacks of books on the twilight table. It was a twilight movie companion book. It was like a glossy magazine, with lots of behind the scenes pictures and a detailed information on how the movie started and came together. Ang daming pictures ni Edward! *LOL*! It's quite expensive pero siyempre buy kami. It's a collectors item for the twilight fans.

Here are some the pictures inside the book...

Thoughts to ponder

Last night BF and I had a serious talk. I wouldn't say all went well but at least we're ok. After the serious talk we chat about much lighter things. The one that came up which made me happy was the idea of buying a DSLR. I am so fond of taking pictures. My officemates always tease me about it. BF gave me the go signal. I should buy daw something that I really want regardless of the price. A personal investment. Well, a camera is not a bad thing really. I was able to feel the DSLR during my cousin's birthday party. My uncle owned a canon eos 1000d and my aunt let me take a few shots with it. I so love the feel of it! Now, my problem would be if I am brave enough to spend money on it. I have to talk to my father about it 'coz I don't want to use up my savings. I was thinking of borrowing money and then pay him on installment plan. Without interest of course *LOL*! Hopefully he'll lend me the money so I can the camera before our Christmas party scheduled on December 13.

Much awaited movie

I have finished reading the twilight series books by Stephenie Meyer. I enjoyed every moment of it. I never had this much enthusiasm in reading since the Harry Potter series. Now that I know what had become of the Bella and Edward love story, I am very excited for the movie.

We were at the mall yesterday. We passed by the cinemas and stopped at a tv monitor which plays the trailer of the movie. Then it flashed the date of the showing of the movie. November 26. November 26?! What?! The schedule in the internet says that the movie will be shown here on November 21! What happened? We asked the girl at the counter why the change in schedule. She just told us that the date has been moved. Moved? As if November 21 is not long enough they had to extend it to November 26.

Oh well, I guess we really have to wait that long.

Check out the trailers and more about the movie here...
