NEW MOON!!!!


YES. I went. With all the other GROUPIES. On opening night. (not at midnight the morning of though, don't worry...)

Actually, Jordan and I went with some of our bestest neighborhood friends :)

My review:

LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT LOVED IT. Even though I HATED this book!! At least, I liked this book the least out of the others. But the movie was AWESOME. I want to see it again!! Like right now!

I liked the first one and I knew this one was going to be better since there was a bigger budget, etc. but I was still even surprised at how better it was than I thought!


10 Things I liked the most:

1. The phrase that Bella used to describe how she was feeling with Edward gone, "it felt like someone punched a hole in my chest" was only used 2 TIMES in the movie. That was much better than like 57 times a page in the book...
2. The makeup and effects were WAY better, although the golden contacts were still a little much...could tone it down some.
3. The movie flowed soooo much better--Twilight was so disjointed.
4. The music was so much better too. The music in Twilight was a little weird sometimes, and very deliberate.
5. The acting was much better--Rob and Kristin were way better in this movie. Taylor Lautner is still not as good of an actor, but maybe he'll be better in future movies.
6. It stayed completely true to the book, which is important--except cut out a lot of crap Stephanie Meyer rehashed a million times in the book, so makes a better movie!
7. Ok, the part where Jacob takes his shirt off and he's RIPPED... so funny--the girls in the theater went wild, of course (not ME, claro!) and it was funny, this guy in the same row as me shouted out (right after Jacob takes off his shirt, and the girls are swooning) "and now the pants!" It was hilarious!
8. Um, it was cool to see Edward with his shirt off, but I wish they would've made him wax his chest :)
9. Loved the wolves. They were really cool.
10. And last of all, ummmm... I just loved it. I need to see it again. Then maybe I'll have 10 MORE things to say. :)

I am up for seeing it with you. I didn't think ahead of time and ended up having no one to see it with. Could have gone with my hubby, but I didn't think he would appreciate it as much as some girlfriends would.

Well, I have to admit, I enjoyed the MOVIE Jacob much more than the BOOK Jacob...may be because I could actually SEE the six pack, you know? :)
