I need to see this film.

Now.

Someone at work told me they saw it last night, and I had to shush them, because I could feel a torrent of snark welling up in my chest and I didn't want to vomit it out all over them.

My son and his friends got banned from the theater for going to that on opening night.  And by "going to that", I mean "going to that prepared."  I'm lucky I didn't have to bail him out, and he's lucky they weren't all killed by pissed off emos (individually, they are nothing, but the theater was PACKED).

Here it is all screaming fangirls, apparently.

Also, I should probably re-read the book, just to remind myself how horrible it truly is.

LMNO

The only reason I might want to see it is that the book was a couple hundred pages describing crushing, crippling, insanity-level depression.  We're talking about screaming yourself to sleep depression.

Self-destructive, sucidal, nihilistic, agonizing depression.

I mean, Lars Von Trier should have been the director for this.

I'm curious how they handle this, considering there isn't much of a plot, other than Bella wanting to die.

Well her theory is that because it's such a fad to HATE the series, she just subjects victims to the movies and gauges their reactions for science. She has offered to supply me with a quantity of alcohol in the event the experimentation may become a bit too harsh.

Please note my sister said that the movies actually did the books JUSTICE, and that these shit actors are actually better than Meyer's writing.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

I refuse to see it, but look forward to Cain's commentary on the movie. 


My nanny-kids made me see it over the summer.  :vom:

My belief is that I don't want to be one of those assholes that hate it without seeing it. So at least by seeing it AND hating it, I'll be one up on the latest fad.

It's like eating something you don't like at dinner, but you do it anyway to impress your friends.


I'm just worried because the last time my sister forced something upon me, I assimilated. Mmm...Rob Thomas...How I <3 thee...

They'd better.  The fuckers cost enough to raise.  I'd like to see some return on my investment.

How do you tell the difference?

The girls wear less makeup.
