Getting ready to see the movie New Moon. The greatest love story since Romero and Juliet with a twist. You must read the 4 books before watching the movie's. 8)
Jane
I probably won't go see it for a while. I read all the books and loved them, but wasn't impressed with the first Twilight movie.
My son & daughter-in-law went to New Moon on Wednesday and they said it was pretty good. Dana said it was a very LOUD movie. Let me know what you think!
My wife has been bitten with the "Twilight" bug. Personally, I can't stand it.
Our daughter, Jenny Diveley, also is smitten by the New Moon and the other books. I think it's great that the release of books and movies still thrill people. We live in such a crash-and-burn, over-dramatized society. Although this series might not whet my interests, it's obviously doing plenty to keep people reading and observing the arts.
I have read all of them except #5 and I can read it on line. Both of our girls and the grand daughters have seen the movie and are biting at the bit for me to finish the reading so they can take me to see it. So I must get on with it.
But first I want to get my Christmas decorations up.....just hurry, hurry, hurry ----and the sad part is, I don't hurry as fast nor as willing as I used to. LOL LOL LOL
Jo,
You really do not have read the 5th book if you have read the first 4. The movie's are in line with each book , they do not skip from one to the other.
Varmit, if you are married I hope you buy flowers for your wife once in awhile!!!
I will be interested in how they show all the sex Bella and Edward have starting in book 3 and 4.
Buy flowers...are you kidding me?? :o I gave her a hoe, spade, and a whole bunch of seed for half the price. ;D
OH Varmit ::), I am sure you do more then that for her since she is still with you. I can see were men would not like this set of books as Edward does everything for Bella and we know that does not happen in the real world ;D
Actually jane, my wife and I have been at an on going argument about Edward. I say that based on the obvious homosexual tendincies of Edward (his refusal to have sex with Bella, his over dramatic sense of romance, his running away from Jacob like a little girl, and the most obvious HE SPARKLES) that he is gay. My wife doesn't think so...the debate continues.
Not to mention the fact that Edwards family goes against the grain of "vampires". Usually I am a big fan of creature flicks and lore, however I do prefer that they at least stick with the genre guildelines.
No Varmit, Edward is not gay, he as a "vampire" has great control and respect for Bella. He did not run from Jacob, he is just trying to keep from breaking the treaty between werewolfs and vampires. Jacob is Bellas best friend and Edward does not what to interfer with her. As far as SPARKLE, they all sparkle in the sun light, it would make a short story if they burnt up and turned into ashes.
My wife says the same thing.
I know you're right Jane, but I wish they'd picked a more masculine looking actor... he just looks like a pasty-faced pansy who stayed up all night (dark circles around his eyes) HA! HA! HA!
I am an Edward and Jacob fan....New Moon is fabulous as are the books...The graphics are amazing. I went with a girlfriend the first night it was out and then the next night I took my husband. He has not read the books and he liked New Moon. He said that he knew if he had read the books he would have understood the thought pattern more but he liked it. But my husband is a romantic and he is a southern gentleman all the way. He does nice things for me all the time and takes very good care of me, so I guess maybe I totally understand the concept of the movie. It is great and I can't wait to see it again and I will own it. I also will have tickets for Eclipse on June 20th. Can't wait.
I am soooooooooooooooooooo in love with the vamps and wolves...~~~ :)
It should be a crime to be that hot and not totally sizzle when you walk.. LOL
I'll take Edward or Jacob hell I don't care..
Joanna.. How can you not think that Edward in all his sensuous sultry hot steamy energy and persona is NOT sexy??
You need glasses and some hormones woman! hahaha
It IS a movie I WILL own and watch many many many times...
It puts Twilight to shame.............Lord its good.. Makes my ears hot just to think about it..
((I know .. I'm weird.. but when my adrenaline gets going.. my ears are the first thing that gets hot.. )) You can actually touch them and they are warm.. hahaa
Not one damned word from any of you male species either.. LOL
OH!!!!!! Teresa. IF he was a little older, I was a little younger and Edward looked at me the way he looks at Bella, I would just attack him. Joanna, even with his pasty looks, he is hot.
Yes, Jacob looks great with that long hair, but I would still take Edward.
Blech! You gals are moon-struck. :P
To each her own... ;)
You know.. I am moon struck or star srtuck or vampire struck...! I'm kinda embarrassed about it too actually. You know the "movie stars" and celebraties that are involved in the gun industry and who are affiliated with NRA etc are plenty. I see them lots of times and have sat in the room having drinks and meals and if I gt a chance I will talk with them a bit. Generally about family and things that they like to do etc.. I'm NEVER star struck! To me they are just a person who is in front of the camera doing a job that they get paid very well for. End of it..
But I'll let you in on a secret........... :-[ If the Cullens or the werewolves familys stepped inside a place that I was in .. I'd probably be so flustered and tongue tied I'd be and say stupid things.. or faint.. ;D Or scream like I did when I was 10 and saw The Monkees. and Hermans Hermits.. .. hahahahahahaha
Ashamed.. and totally embarrassed about it all ... an old woman acting like I do.. Its just pure shameful I say..But I can't help it~~~ :angel:
Well, if it's confession time... :-[
I love all the books and am as addicted to them as anyone else. I just had a mental image of the lead characters that doesn't really fit the actors and it kind of spoiled it for me. Science Fiction, Fantasy and Adventure books have always been my favorites and I've learned that I'm better off not watching a movie of a book I've already read...
The only exception I can think of is Princess Bride and I saw the movie before I read the book... loved them both!
Jeez, Teresa, you must be older than you look when your "adrenaline" gets going and its your ears that get hot. ;D
You watch your mouth you little snot.. or I'll make your ears hot~~ I'll whack them! ;D
Don't tease me....besides I wouldn't want you to throw your back out pitchin' your walker at me. ;D
Remember ~~ Old Santa has eyes everywhere.. I'll tell him to send those Victoria Secret dancers back to where they came from.. and you will be left with only the Senior Center Dancers that I belong to.. to dance for you on Christmas eve..
;D
I can see that I am definitely out of the loop on this one. I haven't read the books, seen the movies or paid a lick of attention to this. However, you all have inspired me, I will watch the first movie this weekend and then go see this latest one.
I've read the books ---NOW I want to watch the Christmas Eve dance that Teresa and her "ladies" do for Billy.
Hang on to your Santa Hat, Billy ---- you might be in for one heck of a sleigh ride on this one. ;) ;) ;)
I have been attack by werewolfs and bitten by a vampire. I just love they way they have been put on the movie screen.
Teresa, I did have a good laugh when you said your ears got hot. Everytime I have a hot flash my ears turn red and are about 104 degrees in temp. Rex always makes fun of me because they are fire engine red. Of course it happens when I drink a Mike's hard lime. ;D
Roma Jean, read the first two books first. It will make a lot more sense as there are some areas that are left out. ::)
LADIES every one of us women think those young men are hot. :-*
Yeah Roma.. You HAVE GOT to read the books first.. you will miss way too much if you don't... and the books are just awesome.. you will not be able to put them down..
Bitten is right Jane....oh lordy lordy...those boys are hot....can't wait for June 20th....#3 movie.

Please, Please NOOOOO....I swear I won't say no more bad words, I promise I won't look at no more dirty books, anything but thaaaaat!!
Too late!! They already have their black lace support hose and their big white granny panties all on and they are ready to rock your world! ;D
Well, in that case, just have them leave their bifocals at home and they won't see that I'm slipping'em play money instead of dollar bills. I guess I'll just have to take my glasses off, only thing I'll see then is a blur of black lace and white panties...wooohoooo!

You know, in all seriousness, if they were smart they would latch on the the twilight movement. They could call their show "Old Moons". HAA! :P

BILLY, I THINK YOU BROKE THE FORUM OR THE INTERNET WITH THAT ONE, OR EVERYONE IS IN SHOCK, NOONE HAS POSTED A THING ON THAT. I HAVE BEEN EXPECTING TERESA TO COME ON AND HAMMER YOU ANY MINUTE.
I am still sitting here wondering where you can get black lace control panty hose.
Wilma, maybe Billy can answer that. He is a moderator and that should be something the moderator knows.
Hey, no problem....
