Rumor has it the movie's actually quite good. And's midnight showing numbers were ridiculous, like 20 million.

The movie was frikkin' amazing, I went to the midnight session on Wednesday night/Thursday morning. It was epic, and I haven't even read the book yet.
|
<3 I'm going to see the 10:30 showing with my mom tonight. We're very excited. Gonna go line up for it at 9 because we have no life hahaha. We both read the book last year and finished off the series in January so we're still pretty into it. I kind of wanted to read the book again before seeing this but I lent it to my roommates to read instead so I can go see the movie again with them if I want to. :'D

Does anybody actually think that Twilight is good? I thought it was more that they thought the boys were hot...
|
I haven't read the book. So, that's partly why I don't feel compelled to watch the movie.
But, I also don't really want to read the book. What little I know about the concept just seems so outlandish to me. I don't think I could suspend belief that much to feel absorbed in that world. I'm sure it's good. But, idk, just not that intrigued by it |

Yeahh, I just went ahead and judged the book by it's cover on that one. |
The cover is pretty indicative of what you get anyway :P

Yeah but I meant they thought the guys in the books were hot too. It's the reason the actors were chosen as they were lol. I've read the books and the romance and sexual tension... it's basically porn for 15 year old girls.

Just because something's mainstream, that doesn't automatically make it bad. And vice versa. Things gain notoriety (This kind of notoriety) for a reason.

I probably wouldn't be so opposed to the Twilight series if every women in my life didn't talk my ears off about it. God, I even used to date a girl who would shove the books down my throat every time we spoke, to the point where I wanted to burn every copy of the book I saw. |
You know the greatest thing about Twilight? Robert Pattinson. He's the guy who plays Edward in the movies and if you see any interviews with him or whatever, it becomes instantly clear that he absolutely despises the franchise. He must be a PR disaster but it's so, so funny. My roommates and I have started watching the Twilight movies with the director's commentary since he's in some of them and the whole time he makes fun of it, ruins the mood, and just cannot take it seriously. It's so funny and whether you like the series or not (and especially if you don't), it's worth watching that way just for him. :P

I didn't mind Twilight, to be quite honest.
|
Wow I might have to watch that, it would be funny. I dont mind Twilight. I read all the books. I think the movies are bad, though. I didnt see Breaking Dawn Part 1 though.
|
There's always much, much worse.
like mlp! |
Since Hunger Games ain't an anime, the only other things that would convince me to see it would be copious amounts of car chases and/or gun fights. Somehow, based on the description, I don't think these elements would be present in the movie, either.
|
I always said Twilight was one of the dumbest things ever made, and I've never seen it. Then the first movie was on one day and I watched it; and I was right, it was stupid. :\ The Hunger Games looks kind of interesting. I didn't even know it was a book until after I saw the movie trailer. D; Don't really know if I want to see it, though.
|
Aw dude human chases? And it's called "The Hunger Games?"
That makes me uneasy. |
^ It's basically survivor with teenagers, and they kill each other.
|
Sound like my family!
http://i1078.photobucket.com/albums/w492/ImACello/images.jpg ... *Ahem*, Perhaps I should just stick to.... posting. Speaking about survival, how bout that Walking Dead? |
The Walking Dead may be the greatest show ever not named House M.D.
|
I see what you did there! House is cool, he doesn't play by the rules.
Those zombies are jacked up though. I would not be able to withstand the zombie apocalypse, though I think I am smarter than those guys in the sense that I wouldn't drink water that had a zombie in it. Yeah, I think i'd end it if life ever boiled down to zombies. |
