Im holding out to pay day next week, but was it good. I think the trailers look much better than Twilight, which I liked but didnt love.

But come on spill the beans....Please, you wont be giving anything away, but did they get it right with what scenes theve put in.

would watch it again just to see Jacob take his top off. He DID carry the film.

There was a collective gasp when Jacob took his top off. Followed by the giggles of embarrassed mid 20s women. Not many teens.

yeah but werewolves though WOOF WOOF!

herladyshiplovesedward · 21/11/2009 22:55

went with three fanatical twi-hard friends last night..

LOVED:

the atmosphere in the cinema
the 'bare chest fest'

NOT SO KEEN ON:

some of the special effects
the edward/bella reunion (it was a bit lame)

i would say you will enjoy the film as long as you are not expecting to get an on-screen copy of the book.. it's clearly a bigger budget movie than twilight, but lacks the edward/bella chemistry of the first film!

mrscrocoduck · 21/11/2009 20:41

tsk... it was fun!

Carriboo - how can you say such things?!?!

carrieboo75 · 21/11/2009 20:02

Surely any movie about vampies and warewolves is meant to be just light hearted entertainment

sherby · 21/11/2009 19:47

lol flame

I thought Aro was really good

Flame · 21/11/2009 19:25

My friend hadn't read the book and was confused with the scene.

You really liked the Volturi? I liked Jane, but the rest just seemed like comedy vampires, I kept expecting dodgy accents with "I vant to drink your bloooooood"

tillyfernackerpants · 21/11/2009 19:19

I'm seeing it next Weds with a friend, we've picked an evening showing in the hope there won't be any swooning teens

I'm not expecting an Oscar winner tbh, I'm purely going for my fix! But will come back & let you know what I think... if anyone's interested of course

I haven't read the books but saw new moon this afternoon and liked it.

The cinema was empty as everyone else was cramed into the screening next door.I could imagine it would of been anoying if full of teens as there is alot of toplessness!

Flame - I know the bit you mean but Bella's dad had just come in and Edward had been hideing behind the door. I realise it may not make sense compared to the book but as a film sceen it followed though ok.

Did make me feel very old though

sherby · 21/11/2009 17:16

Ok I went this afternoon

Bella seemed to be embarrased to be in the film the whole way through. Why does she talk constantly with her hand/fingers over her mouth? It feels like she knows how cheesy the whole thing is and can't let herself go

Jacob carries the whole film, he was very good.

Special effects MUCH better than Twilight, they actually mangaed to make Edward glitter this time

Volturi very very good and I though v well casted

Anyway I liked it much better than twilight, Edward actually smiles occasionally and most importantly they cover most of the main points from the book, which Twilight woeful lacked

Stigaloid · 21/11/2009 12:04

I was definitely meh about it. I thought it really slow paced.

Flame · 21/11/2009 11:56

he's in it, but not the scene they are talking about

Edward says that he came in through the window, so it didn't matter that her dad said he wasn't setting foot in the door (and the rest of their conv tbh)... but there had been no dad scene at all and the whole conv was a bit "eh?"

There is one bit where they clearly cut a scene and didn't think about the continuity too - a line makes no sense whatsoever

mollyroger · 21/11/2009 11:39

I have a horrible feeling I will be giving this a miss after all. I loved the books, but am feeling more and more 'meh' at the idea of seeing the film tbh...haven't read one good review yet.

GypsyMoth · 21/11/2009 11:37

might take them all tomorrow..have a babysitter for the little ones so may as well get it over with
