As I have always believed…as an example Dan Brown…OMG! I have had perfectly intelligent people tell me (thinking I would be gaga) to read this book…because they know that I write myself….
Well…I found it hard to even read to page 5 and feel the same way about Ms. Meyer. I congradulate her on her success because as I said good writing and commerciability obviously never the two shall meet.

Any good script writer can take a decent story and with enough talent in directing and acting Voila! Success!!!
O.k. now just being a jealous (you know what) but…come on people please!!!!!

I am disappoint with this film. My girlfriend made me take her to it and I went with an open mind. The story was terrible, a 3 year old quadriplegic could do better CGI with MS Paint, and the acting was pathetic at best. I can understand how this film could be attractive to a teenage girl without any friends but adults should hang their heads in shame if they liked this flick in any way shape or form. If you want to see a quality vampire film I suggest “Fright Night” I hope, if they make another sequel, it begins and ends with Wesley Snipes rushing in, kicking some “vampire” arse, and saving us from mediocrity and the plague known as “Twilight” – Sarah
