You have to read them…it might give you some insight into why these fans are so irrational about this!I am off to the Antarictic on an ice breaker over christmas. I won a trip! Hope they have good films on board.

Haven’t read any of them, but I’ve heard that the 4th book is pretty much off the rails compared to the other three.

I’ve been doing ’stuff’ (work is a necessity unfortunately) You don’t know the HALF of the crazy stuff that’s in that last novel! It reads like a really bad fanfiction. I didn’t mind the first three, although I think other authors are far better, and much more creative in the vampire genre.

All I can say is, Stephanie really has tapped into the motherload of poor taste, and it scares me…

HAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh! SO very witty… you hurt me, you hurt me bad.

And aren’t you a little “male” to be “slagging off (to)” New Moon?

What would you have said if I gave it a really bad review instead of a middle of the road critique, Einstein?

And FYI, there are plenty of young reviewers who gave this far more of a beating than I did.

Now why don’t you scoot back home to mama.

Vic

Aren’t you a little old to be watching (and then slagging off) New Moon, which is aimed at an audience of teenage girls?

Shouldn’t you be out playing bowls with the rest of the geriatrics?

I hear there’s a LOT of crazy stuff in that last novel.

BTW, where’ve you been? I don’t think I’ve seen you around in a while.

My 16 YO daughter(one of those fans) went to see it, and said it was disappointing as there wasn’t enough ‘Edward’. Its a bit like Beatlemania, isn’t it? We love her anyway, bless.

But even she realises that it is a phenomena that is cashing in on its popularity among screaming tweenies and 30,40, and even 50 something Romance junkies! Bless ‘em all!

I have read the books, and as they are churning these films out like cheap candy, one has to wonder how they will deal with the final book in the series which has a plot along the lines of: Edward and Bella marry, have an indestructable baby that talks as soon as it is born, lives on blood, and is made of stone, named ‘Renesme’ (a combination of Renee, and Esme) which Jacob (the werewolf) falls in love with…yes, and we were worried about a 109 year old vampire who fall in love with a 16 yo!, But Jacob has to wait a few years ’til shes old enough to have sex with, but in the meantime becomes her devoted slave until she’s big enough to boink!

Meanwhile, in the book, Edward and Bella marry, leave her parents behind to grow old alone without her, while she stays forever young with Edward in their secret cottage of luuuuurve.

I just wonder how the paedophilia is going to be dealt with, or are they going to leave the last trashy novel out of the films?

One can hope that good taste will prevail, but as money is involved, I doubt it.

That was just a joke people, no offense intended.

Haha yea I hear ya I was sorta giving you a hard time

Vic,
What’s with the hostility? Can someone not point out to you that one of your comments is a little offensive to a class of people? Maybe you don’t care or maybe it was your intent to offend someone, but I didn’t accuse you or 790 of that.

You’re explanation above is as rediculous as your dismissal of my statement. If someone is picking up a nickel off the ground would you say “look at the Jew picking up a nickel”? Might that be offensive to someone? What you said in the review is on the same level. I didn’t know if you realized it and I pointed it out, without accusations. You don’t care if it’s offensive? That’s your business, it’s your article. Someone else saying it’s a “gay film” in a negative connotation is offensive, whether you chose to believe it or not. It doesn’t mean insult was intended, but it was offensive.
