I saw the movie Friday night and I have to say it was horrible. I know I am not the the target audience but even for a teen movie it seemed so slow and I think they chose the wrong director for this movie. Still its going to have a huge opening weekend.

WELLS: The agency handling twilight is horrible. Many people did not get screening info, etc.

I think it will be horrible, as well. You only have to watch one trailer to get the idea that it looks like a sequel to THE COVENANT, except one that everyone wants to see...don't get it.

It's silly to question who woman find hot, but all the power to Pattinson, who can't seem to keep his fingers out of his hair. Look at Hollyman right there saying bad things, like even Scooterzz (who's obviously not caught up in the hysteria for P the man meat -- P's words) and commented after Friday's screening:

twilight = total slownage
horrible dialog, pretty bad direction, one decent action scene, laughable effects and make-up (if i didn't already know edward was a vampire, i'd think bella had fallen in with a family of mimes)....
i know it'll make a crap-ton of money opening week-end but i can't imagine even fans of the book giving it great word of mouth....

While Let The Right One In is the movie to see if you're male or gender neutral or genderless.

9/24: Let the Right One In is the best film I've seen at Fantastic Fest all told and has become, over the last few days, one of my favorite films of the year thus far.

11/5: Let the Right One In is getting the kind of rave reviews most filmmakers would kill to include in their scrapbooks (as they pretend not to pay attention to critics).

11/7: But it's also a spectacularly moving and elegant movie, and to dismiss it into genre-hood -- to mentally stuff it into the horror pigeonhole -- is to overlook what is at this point the best film of the year.

I guess this is Love Story for the Goth crowd.

scooterzz says ...

hollyman nailed it...i saw it friday night in prep for yesterday's interviews and agree that it was just plain bad....horrible direction, bad dialog, really laughable make-up (the cullen family looked like mimes)...i'll give it one decent action scene but the rest was like watching paint dry.......
i've read the book it's based on (but didn't follow) and i'm not sure even the hard core fans will give it great wom....

He sounds very intelligent and well grounded in this interview, he voice its just a delicious to hear, I like it what I saw it. About Twilight, I am pretty sure its gonna be a piece of crap, but if at least serve to bring attention to Rob and the wonderful Kristen Stewart than I am good. Pattinson could be a new fresh air and Kristen definitely looks serious about acting.

Robert Pattinson, or as I like to call him, Michaelangelo's Douchebag.

As an adult male who has read none of the novels, I thought Twilight was actually pretty good. It definitely has its shortcomings but it's extremely well-acted by Stewart and Pattinson and it perfectly nails the mind-set of teenagers - girls anyway. Regardless, the movie's going to make a mint - anyone who thinks the series' fans won't be into it is oblivious to reality, much less pop culture as a whole - and while Let the Right One In is a vastly superior film this is a surprisingly effective adaptation whose cinematic merits (or especially lack thereof) will be largely or completely irrelevant to the people who love the story and characters.

The most disturbing part of this whole Twilight hype is that Robert Pattinson has had a biography written about him. I shit you not - it was the first thing I saw when I was confronted with the massive Twilight display at the front of Borders. Seriously, who the fuck is this guy to have a biography? Are the pages blank and girls are just buying it to stare at the cover?

Maybe there's something about penetration that women find appealing but just doesn't rub guys the same way. Some guys, at least.

Kristen Stewart = the acting chops and smoldering charisma of BRANDO and DEAN in the body of a smoking hot chick.

I've said it a hundred times, I'll say it again:

This will do 125 mil opening weekend.

You forget something: they're teenage girls -- they have to conform. (Peer pressure and all that, foisted by corporations in order to keep them buying and keep them from thinking.)
