Twilight (book series)

This is a sh*t town to see a movie in. Half full theatre on a Saturday night. Mostly middle aged folks. One swoon during the credits-for Jacob.

It was watchable. But 3 more movies of anguished jaw jutting is more than I can contemplate sitting through. Some observations:

* Kristin Stewart is too pretty to play Bella.
* They should have showed the origin stories and emphasized the importance of their lifestyle choice.
* They really downplayed the "take it slow, kids" aspect of the book.
* "He's a tracker. He lives for the hunt." struck me as even more ridiculous and arbitrary in the movie than it did in the book.
* The diamond skin effect disappointed me. I doubt that it would be noticed in a crowded Italian plaza.
