Okay, every female I know "in real life" seems to adore Twilight. I've seen blurbs about it all over the news and entertainment shows and on the magazine stand.
But, I've never read it or watched it. Or, I should say, I hadn't until I got stuck at the hospital and one of the movie options during my time in captivity was Twilight (other options included a plethora of Disney movies, Benjamin Button, Valkyrie, Ghost of Girlfriends Past, a football movie, Earth, and some other Nat Geo flick).
Bored out of my mind and having read the newspaper inside and out...including the obituaries and the editorials (which are, surprisingly, often equally depressing in my book)... I thought, "What the hell, I'll see what everyone is talking about," and flipped on Twilight.
I'm still left without a clue. The only word that came to mind watching this movie was "insipid". Calling the actors wooden would probably be an insult to trees everywhere. This was a movie in dire need of parody. I kept hoping someone would attack Bella with a canister of NO2 so she might actually lighten up for a few seconds of the film.
I hope Cthulhu makes a cameo in the next movie and eats her, Edward, and Jacob in one gulp--sparkly skin, smirks, fur, and all.
Team Edward? Team Jacob? Not me, GO TEAM Cthulhu! FTW!
I really don't get the appeal of Twilight. *shrug*
Benjamin Button was kind of interesting, though. Didn't manage to make it more than a few minutes into Valkyrie or Ghosts of Girlfriends Past.
I wish I'd had some books w/ me instead.
