My sisters and I went to see Twilight this morning. I’m a fan of the Twilight series. Not the kind of fan that wears a prom dress and vampire teeth to the midnight showing of the movie, but the kind that still wants to see it on opening weekend. I didn’t get around to ordering tickets until Thursday, but we lucked out and got the last three tickets available (not counting the front row) to the 9:25 a.m. show today.
I loved the movie. It helped that I had low expectations and I’m not a purist about book-to-film movies. There were small things that bugged me . . . some of the special effects/make-up and Jasper’s striking resemblance to Edward Scissorhands for the first half of the movie. Overall, I was just plain entertained. I had fun hanging out with my sisters. We made a day of it and went to breakfast first and then did a little shopping afterwards. It was a great way to spend a Saturday.
We took a couple of pictures with Jody’s cell phone. They are not so quality, but it’s all about the memory.

So have you read all the books? How have you liked them? I haven't succumbed yet to the pressure to read them like my sisters, but I think I will see the movie...when it comes out on dvd! :)
I have read (listened to) all of the books. I liked the first, hated most of the second, liked the third, and loved the fourth.
I am interested to see how much someone would like the movie without reading the books. Nate has volunteered to give me that opinion (when it comes out on dvd.)
I bought the soundtrack! This was a big step for me because I haven't bought a CD in years. Tell me what you think of The Host when you're finished lisening to it.
I'm glad you liked it! I'll have to try seeing it again when it comes out on dvd, but it sounds like you and your sisters had fun.
You and your sisters haven't changed at all! How fun. I wish I lived close to my sisters :)
