Twilight

[Cali]

I've been MIA the last couple of days because I've been living in Twilight land.

First off, the movie was AWESOME!!!  I've been getting all tight chested every time I think about it.

Note:  I won't talk any spoilers for anyone who is worried.

Alex (my husband) and I went to the midnight showing Thurs night.  We got there about 7:30pm for the midnight showing and it was alot of fun waiting.  We ate Olive Garden, played Magic the gathering, talked with fellow twilight fans and overall just squeed alot waiting to see it.  Oh, and did I mention we were in Costume?  Yeah, it was my Rosalie costume I'd been tweaking ever since DragonCon and my husband wore a Emmett costume I put together for him. We looked so good.  And were were about the only ones in costume, I was very disappointed.  My husband chaulks it up to most of the fans being 16 yr old girls, but I would have thought that some of them would have put a bit of effort into it instead of just wearing Twilight shirts.  Oh well.  I'll try and post a pic later once I get them uploaded.

The movie was amazing and magical, and pretty much right out of the book.  They merged a few characters and scenes and cut alot of stuff out, but it was still the book, they didn't change anything important.  The chemistry and romance and need and intensity is till all there and that was the most important part, the part that makes you love the books and the part that still has me spazzing out when I think about the movie.  

I got to bed by 4am then got up at 8:30 Fri morning to go shopping with my mom.  We met up with Alex at 4:00 to see the movie again.  And it was even better the second time.  Alot of stuff happens in the background that you don't notice the first time because you're focused on Bella and Edward, but if you watch, the Cullens are always doing stuff and Bella's friends are always doing stuff.  So keep an eye out.  

We want to see it again today but I don't think it's going to happen.  We've already used both babysitting options for the last two days.  It's like withdrawl I need a fix bad but I don't know how to get it!!!  I'm thinking maybe one of the grandmas might watch the kiddos on Sunday so we can see it again.  Hopefully... gawd I need a fix bad!  I'm off to listen to the soundtrack and squee and cry as I reply to posts.  So if the replies don't make alot of sense it's because I'm having the shakes and need my Twilight fix!

I'm waiting until I've got the books before I go to see it.  The books are on my xmas list, and I don't the film is out at the cinema until after xmas here.

You want to see the SAME movie three times?  :irre3:

[Cali]

YES!

If it was out on DVD it'd be on continuous playback at the house.  And it's not just me, my husband is as in love with it as I am.  


And Emma, while I'm all for everyone seeing the movie immediately, if it's not going to come out till after christmas anyways, reading the books first is a great idea.  At least the first one, twilight.  Maybe New Moon too because there is alot of foreshadowing in the movie for New Moon that wasn't really played up (but still there) in twilight.

I got to see it again last night!  3 times and I'm still in love with it.  

I think we get to go see it again on Monday. :D
