Twilight movie disappointment

[starzandreams]

I have seen the movie first. The novels were honestly so amazing I read them multiple times. I still don't think I can say that the movie was bad, though. Since I saw it first before reading the book so it holds a special place for me.

Not to offend anyone, but even after all these years I cringe everytime I watch the movies. I still can't get over the "Should I start calling you dad?" dialogue.......

It isn't that I didn't like the movie, but once I read the first book, I saw the first movie and couldn't stop and I watched all the remaining movies and then became too lazy to read the other books.

Yeah, I agree, it was a bit disappointing back then, the first book Twilight was good. I didn't enjoy the second one though. But I understood the direction the movies were going so I let go. The third one was better and for an unpopular opinion, I liked the first half of Breaking Dawn.

Then I forgot about them, and recently I found Midnight Sun. I could not leave the last book from the series unread so I read it. I liked it, strangely. It gave far more context to the Cullen family than Bella's version.

I don't care; I think they both suck. Some of the characters were okay, and some good moments but everything else is just absolutely terrible—very terrible.

I always saw the Twilight movies as a reflection of the John Rambo series. These kinds of movies just provide to each gender with what they want to see without much consideration of whether the scenario makes sense. If you go to the cinema knowing that, there is nothing wrong with the movies. Now if you actually expect some serious kind of development you are going to keep waiting for a long time lol

That comment (comparing Twilight to Rambo) was the most surreal I've ever seen. Your analysis makes sense, though.
