The Twilight Movie

Okay, on Friday night, Squall's Mom took us and her brother to see the Twilight movie. Squall hates to hear me complain about it, so I will use one blog to express my feelings on the movie as a whole. First, Edward Cullen does NOT look like that. When I saw who was going to be playing him, I went: Cedric Diggory. All I think when I see him is Cedric Diggory. I couldn't really get into the movie because of that. Also-Alice. The girl who plays Alice did a very good job. The only thing about her is that I wish she would have been shorter. She was cute, though. Kristen Stewart (Bella) has always been one of my favorite actresses. She is very good-looking, and she does well as Bella. The only thing about her is that her's and Bella's personality do not match. Kristen Stewart, in all the roles I've seen her in, is a quiet, sad, person with a problem, and she doesn't talk much. I wish she could have been a little happier. Emmet-was perfect-though I think he could have been muscle-i-er, like in the book. (Squall thinks he's hot, though, so I guess that works. :) ) Jasper-was okay. They didn't even mention his ability to alter moods, though, which I found annoying. And he had a really weird expression on his face the whole time that seriously reminded me of Edward Scissorhands. Esme-you barely saw-I would have liked her better if she had black hair, but she was pretty good. Rosalie- annoying and fat. I'm not saying that to be mean, but they are all supposed to be "deathly" skinny. Duh. And she wasn't. Other than that, she was good. Very blond... Carlise-Very good. Young, blond. Perfect. Charlie-not quite what I was expecting, but he played the role well. When Bella was leaving, she was supposed to say "Just let me leave, Charlie." And she didn't. And then she told Edward that she had said the same thing her Mom had said when she left, which isn't true!!! Also-Edward is supposed to say "If I'm going to hell I might as well do it thoroughly." He said something like, "I'm breaking all the rules, since I'm going to hell anyway." What is that??? NO! Also-when Bella told Edward she wasn't scared of him- he grabs her and pretty much flys out the window. And then he says "You better hang on tight, spider-monkey." Spider-monkey? What? Stupid. And then he, like, climbs up a bunch of pine trees and they stand on top of this friggin huge on that over-looks a lake. It's really pretty, but what? Where did that come from? I wanted to hear Alice say "We thought you might be having Bella for lunch and we wondered if you would be willing to share?" And Edward go "No, only enough for me, sorry." And them talking about baseball, and Alice going "Let's go see if Carlise will come," and Jasper going "As if you don't already know." And Edward doesn't sleep over before he brings Bella to his house. And then his family tries to make her food. What the hell? Why are they making her food? Where did that come from? Jacob-PERFECT!!!!!! He is the best Jacob EVER! Squall thinks he's sexy, and he looks JUST LIKE JACOB! When I first saw the pictures of the cast on Stephenie Meyer's website, I saw him with short hair at like 13, and I was all-NO! That is not Jacob. But now, with long hair, he frikkin is Jacob! Eric is not Asian. Angela is not supposed to be Suzie Crabgrass from Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide. Jessica was okay. Where did Lauren go? Mike was good, except where did his spiky hair go? Tyler was good. A little "gangsta" though. Victoria was awesome, and pretty. I fell in love with Laurent. How he was all French dreds and such. James was okay. I don't know if I pictured him exactly like that, but he did the role pretty well. Billy was good, except in one of the scenes, he drove. I know that people in wheelchairs can drive given new technology, thank you, Squall, for pointing this out, but in the book he can't frikkin drive! Rene was good, looked the part, did the role well, I liked her. When Bella and Mike and everyone was at La Push, and Jessica is all-Bella invited Edward, and the dude who said "The Cullens don't come here", was that supposed to be Sam? 'Cause I thought that dude was a chick at first, and I know Sam doesn't look like that. All in all, though, it was a good movie. So, now I'm gonna go. TTYL. -me
