Twilight

I have gotten some comments from my friends about the Twilight Review.

I have to say now that I think about it, the movie is better then the book. But of course that doesn't mean it's a great movie.

The movie amplified my biggest problem with the book, which was the ridiculous obsessive codependent relationship between Edward and Bella.

I read the book back in '06 before it was cool. And somehow I forgot that the movie did take away a lot of the really terrible scenes like ones about Bella getting drunk off of Edwards very presence. Not to mention a few other scenes that were equally as ridiculous. It also made the characters slightly more likeable.

Yea I really do mean that Edward and Bella were even bigger ....I don't even know the right words to describe it

Douchebags, sticks in the mud, pompous, pathetic, creepy, emo as hell

I don' know take your pick from the above list.

Anyway the movie is a step up from the book IF your problem with the book is a technical storytelling one. My problem with the book is really more because I'm a feminist and I disagree with anyone glorifying a completely unhealthy romantic relationship. I hate the whole Bella/Edward relationship.

But in the name of being fair to the movie. It does make some improvements from the book.

But that ain't saying much as far as I am concerned.
