New Moon revisited

STILL LOATHE IT!! The entire last quarter of the book was put into like 5 minutes at the end of the movie, and they changed it ALL!! Bella and Edward do not make up and kiss as soon as she sees him, that whole 30 seconds!! And it took a LONG time to get to the Volturri and here, BING, the green elevator down, sooooo mysterious, NOT!! And the Volturri scenes in the book lasted much longer, Aro had much more to say than they had him in the movie. There WAS no seeing Alice and Bella even FLY there, which I enjoyed. Then when they finally fly home, Bella is thinking these are her last moments with Edward, and they finally talk in her room and he explains but she doesn't believe him. It is only as they run to the Cullen house that they stop and Bella realizes Edward really does love HER as much as she loves HIM! And the vote lasts for more than a milisecond!! Edward doesn't g roaring off in the movie. And there IS no Jacob dropping off Bella's bike and causing MAJOR anger from Charlie!!!

LOATHE IT!!!

Hmm, I don't feel that way.

I think that this is always the problem with turning a book into a movie. They have to condense it a lot, and so they take a lot of scenes out.

I actually liked the movie better BECAUSE they cut out so much. The book drove me nuts because they dragged so much out. lol. That's why I have yet to read the other books. However, I liked the first book MUCH better than I liked the movie.

This why I'd much rather see the movie before I read the book. If I've already read the book, I absolutely DO NOT re-read it before viewing.

That's the thing with books that get made in to movies. They're almost never as good, and they always miss out or change parts.

I think it was better than Twilight.
I HATE Twilight.
