I love going to the movies and no New Moon is not good..esspecially compared to Twilight the first part. I have seen the first one too and everything goes in a slow pace, but all the characters are introduced quite well and the acting is much better. And there is a love story going on to which you can relate to-  although we are not vampires haha.. But The second movie is like watching the stupid whining all the time ( my friend made pig-sounds haha) and allthough the accompanying music is great ( possibility - Lykke Ly?) the acting is really really bad, the running time is way too long and the movie lacks something - it is boring - in fact I  haven't seen a movie that boring for ages. And the cgi is just plain bad..
Check the internet for some reviews and you will all find the same; boring, bad acting, too long running time, bad cgi..
In fact I have to say I always want to have see something before judging, but this time the reviewers are just completely right!

Hahaha yes!  I love love how the whole Twilight Saga is such a .. hmm.. like, opinionated thing!  EVERYONE I have talked to about NM, or Twilight has a different opinion, completely, or tweaked changes from the last person.   It's fabulous!  But Iv never talked to two people, who share the exact same views on it

[Frida]

^ I wasn't talking about the Twilight Saga in particular, but life in general.. The world would be such a boring pace if we all thought alike, I could never stand it..

My mum LLLOOOVVVEEESSSS Twilight! She loves all of the movies! She watched all of them in one day!!! I can't watch 2 in a span of 1 month without VOMITING!!!! My step-dad calls me bias, but I'll come RIGHT out and say it, I HATE TWILIGHT!!!! I hate Bella, Edward, and Jacob! I only like Alice, Rosalie, and Victoria(and Jane in the 2nd one)I wish Victoria will eat Bella just so the STUPID saga will be over! Many books have been turned into movies, but this should've just stayed a book, REALLY!!!

Interesting. Bumping a one year old thread on a subject you one doesn't even like.

[RLAAMJR.]

I can't believe that i haven't watched this film yet,

[ferjaacu]

Well, I don't think any of the movies of the Twilight saga are good, compared with Philadelphia, Titanic, The King Speech and others, but I liked all of the movies that I've seen already. I miss the last one...

[volleyceline]

^ Twilight was meant for teenage girls! So as a teenage girls, I find it dreamy  

And honestly, those are the only novels I've finished in less than 3 days, and I actually had that "can't put it down" feeling!!!

[ferjaacu]

^^^^ I'm not a teenage girl, but I liked it anyway... I've always been fascinated with immortallity and flying and stuff... And vampires can do those things (supposedly) so that's the main reason why I like this saga...

[volleyceline]

^ Same here!!! In the theaters, I saw Twilight 2 times, then I saw New Moon 3 times, then I saw Eclipse 4 times, Now I have to see the next movies consecutively one more time!!!

[ferjaacu]

^^^^ So you're addicted to it then !!! I need to see the last one... How's called??

^ The last book is split into two parts, Breaking Dawn Part 1, and Breaking Dawn Part 2

[ferjaacu]

[volleyceline]

^ Nope, the next movie, Breaking Dawn Part 1 is to be released November 18th, 2011

[ferjaacu]

Oh f***... How come?? Oh well... Nothing more to do but wait !

[volleyceline]

^ I know and for some reason, I can never attend the midnight showing! Something always comes up. But that's the showing when all the freaks come out!!!

[ferjaacu]

And that's the reason why you want to go to that showing, lol !! hahaa...

[volleyceline]

^ Haha mean!!!! I'm not a freak for Twilight!!!.

... only for Celine

[ferjaacu]

lol... We know !!! We all are !! haha...

[RLAAMJR.]

I guess, there are still also a lot of Twilight fans here. I'm not really a fan of the film.

[ferjaacu]

Well, I'm not a FAN, but I liked it...

[volleyceline]

This is kinda weird but I started reading the series about a month or so ago just to see what the big hubba was about. I found that it was relatively "normal." It's the perfect "romance" novel except for the fact that the guy Bella's in love with is a vampire and the guy who likes her is a ware-wolf. Classic love triangle.

The books are simple and easy to read with a few big SAT vocabulary words thrown in. The author also spends half her time explaining mundane things (like Bella standing at the microwave waiting for a piece of lasagna). A lot of people I spoke to didn't like this and I could see how it could become "boring" at times. Surprisingly though, even to myself, I liked it. I appreciate all the time spent with the descriptions cause I sort of got a vivid picture of what was happening and it definitely helped set the mood of the scenes. SOOO... I'm on the third book, trying my best to be unbiased. For what is it--a teenage vampire story--it's not bad at all.

I do like the movies, initially for formal reasons like shooting style and stuff but it's definitely a good adaptation of the books. I saw them first before reading the books so I'm not a big stickler for how accurate the movies are to the books. I don't think it's ever possible to make a movie exactly like its respective book... you just can't.

As for the whole "team Edward/Jacob" thing, I've gotta go with Edward on this. It's Edward; he just has win by default. And I can't get over Jacob's immature attitude.

Mmm... I guess this is one of those hidden "guilty pleasures." lol And yeah... I guess I'm waiting for the fourth movie too. Part of me just can't help thinking that this whole mess could and would be avoided if Edward just turned Bella into a vampire though. Problem solved. Haha.

^ I agree, the author finds the perfect way to explain complicated things in simple terms which is needed nowadays
Love the books

[Haheather]
