The Movie. Okay. I did it. I watched the movie.
So I am the type of person who is always bucking the trend when it comes to books and movies. For starters, I don't go to the theater. The last time I saw a movie in the theater was The Passion of the Christ. (If your wondering, I was preggo with Little d at the time, so, over four years ago.) I wait until I can watch a movie in the comfort of my own home.
When it comes to books, well, I usually don't read the latest trend until WAY after it's trendy. I read all the Harry Potter books, except the last one, after they were all in paperback. If that's any clue. And my usual thinking is "give me a break, how good can the book really be?" Same with Twilight.
I heard of it and thought "teenage vampires? no thanks." (yeah sometimes when I think to myself I use lower case letters.) I read about ALL these women of ALL ages swooning over these books and again I thought "really? teenage vampires?" Then I heard all the buzz when the movie was coming out and I thought..."?" Then, THEN, I had the...let's say opportunity...to watch the movie. Ahem. So okay, it's pretty good.
I mean, you know, I've watched a couple of times. I mean you know like 15. But it doesn't really count as 15 because I've seen the whole thing start to finish only once. Usually I catch part of it and then I have to not watch parts of it while Little d is around. But...I am a total...shhh...fan.
It's a really neat idea. You know, nice sparkly vampires who go to prom. Hah. See if you are reading this and haven't seen the movie you are totally thinking "what the fudge?!?"
Okay so now that I have demeaned myself I will tell you what is the single best line of the movie. In my opinion at least. Ready? Here it is:
"It wouldn't be like drinking your blood, for example."
Am I right? The best line...ever...

hahahaha.
I have avoided the entire Twilight thing. After reading this though I think I might have to at the very least watch the movie, even if I haven't read a single one of the books.
*sigh*... adding Movie gallery to my to-do list.
I watched "Twilight" last night. I was like "bring it on, show me what you got!"
As a transylvanian, I grew up on vampires stories, in summers at my grandma's house in the countryside, so I wasn't sure if this new vampire story is going to have something in it for me.
But I watched the movie and now I wanna see what happens. Guess I have to read the books ha ha :-)
My favorite scene: the baseball scene AND when Edward came in the car and scared those scum bags off...
My favorite lines exchange:
"How old are you?"
"Seventeen."
"How long have you been seventeen?"
My grandma never told me that some vampires are hot, actually...
