Hello once again "...From: model/yoga/industry lady<br /><br />Hello once again "Snarkier than You"<br /><br />I am now on "Eclipse", and I must say that "New Moon" was quite intense. Every teenage girl has been there (in Bella's shoes) to a certain degree. I did just see the film, and even though it was pretty good, I found it very rushed. I was not expecting a carbon copy of the book, but at least a bit more development between Edward and Bella. the movie lacked emotion from all of the characters. Especially Bella. The book had you on your toes with anticipation and you could feel the emotion between the two leads. The film seemed rushed, especially in areas where it shouldn't be. For example, Bella's conversation with Jacob on the beach, the meadow seemed especially rushed (did I fall asleep when these two fell in love? Because I know I missed it.) I think the director was in such a hurry to put the film out that she forgot to show the audience how they fell in love. Such a shame, the novel was very well done for teen fiction. Hopefully the new director for NEW MOON, will do the series justice. With all that said, I still enjoyed the film, just a bit disapointed in the lack of character development between the characters. <br /><br />I should be finished with Eclipse in another day or so, and then onto the next and final novel of the series. It will be sad to say goodbye to these characters that I have learned to adore. I am not sure if the Winston Churchhill biography will confort me as much as this series/saga has, I have left it to collect dust on the corner of my desk since I have been reading the Twilight novels. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where to go from here? What do you suggest I turn to once I have read that final page of BD? I have a feeling it is going to be difficult to pick something else up that can grab your attention as much as this has. Oh god help me, I might have just become Twitarded!!!

And welcome to the club...<br /><br />: )<br /><br />Seriously, I don't quite know what it is about it that hooks everyone in and frankly I don't care - that book series IS completely addictive. And the movie <I>doesn't</I> really live up to the books imho, but it's enjoyable for what it is (book=brain candy; movie=eye candy). JJ and I laughed in all the wrong places. And then promptly went back and saw it in the theater three more times (we were baffled by this, too).<br /><br />Come back when you're done with "Breaking Dawn" - I give it a few days (c'mon - we both know that "The Last Lion" is currently gather dust. It's ok.

I enjoy Billy Holiday as much as Born Against; likewise, I can find pleasure in both the classics and the pulp of literature. That is why we like to call Twilight 'brain candy' - it's just a fun, easy read. <br /><br />There is something to be said about the whole 'tortured soul/brooding' character. It's a formula that has been making many a woman's heart flutter for a very, very long time. In my opinion, the movie left much to be desired. It was adequate. I do think Robert Pattinson is a decent actor who is quickly shaping up to be an excellent. That being said, I still suggest you give it a shot. You know what they say opinions, after all.Jenny Jerkfacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15659204046693465182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3325136241555317156.post-28463290638815369212009-04-19T12:30:00.000-04:002009-04-19T12:30:00.000-04:00From: model/yoga/industry lady

Mind you, I am also reading the Last Lion as well, so maybe Twilight would have been more gripping. It is fairly well written for teen-fiction, and the author paints a very vivid picture, and I could feel the intesity build up throughout the book. I am not sure if I have crossed over to the Twi-side, as my tastes in literature are quite different. I am keeping an open mind, and will give the series a chance. I hope the film does the book justice, and will probably see it sometime in the near future. I can see from the character in the novel "Edward" would attract older women, the character is quite complex and mature. Plus that tortured soul/brooding attitude makes it a tad sexy. I take it that Mr. Pattinson is a fairly new actor as I had no idea who he was. This adorable guy has so much buzz lately. Wow, his performance in Twilight must have knocked those teen girls right out of their uggs!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3325136241555317156.post-60363031152516662562009-04-15T13:21:00.000-04:002009-04-15T13:21:00.000-04:00LOL! I was going to say "Just read the book!" - no...LOL! I was <I>going</I> to say <B>"Just read the book!"</B> - no matter that you don't typically read teen/vampire novels - you could say the same thing about most of the other people reading/following this blog (almost all of whom likely read the entire four-book series in within a week--family, jobs, and other commitments be damned!). <br />I have a degree in English, and it's been a loooong time since I frequented the "young adult" section of the bookstore. If you would have told me a year ago that I would be blogging about something like this today, I would have told you that you were off your rocker.<br />IMO/FWIW, the movie does not truly capture the intensity of the book (as is often the case - duly noted), and it's hard not to snicker during some scenes. But there's still something totally irresistible about it. Go figure.<br />I sense a convert in the making! Come to the Twi-side...<br />: )Snarkier Than Youhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10797449606526868507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3325136241555317156.post-88466386189209568352009-04-15T12:06:00.000-04:002009-04-15T12:06:00.000-04:00From: model/yoga/industry lady
Hello there.
I ho...From: model/yoga/industry lady<br /><br />Hello there.<br /><br />I hope I did not offend. I was not commenting on your actions, I was commenting on the fans that physically chase down this poor fellow. I have never been star struck before, and I have been around my fair share of celebrities, especially back in Toronto during the film festival every year. (hey Robert, maybe we might rub elbows some time) Don't get me wrong, I do admire their work, and tend to be drawn to certain films by particular actors. I have never asked a celbrity for their autograph, or followed them around. I guess what I am trying to say is that I just don't understand it. I find it a tad strange, but hey, to each their own. Just as long as its not intrusive, and no one is hurt in the process.<br />Its funny,<br />I haven't seen anything from this actor as of yet, however, here i am on this blog.<br />How I stumbled upon this was that I was in a Toronto music store not too long ago, spending a small fortune on music as usual, and there, standing in front of me was a life sized cut out of this lovable looking guy. I have heard of the novel a while back, but have not read them nor seen the movie. Its just not my sort of thing I guess. I am an avid reader, but tend to stick to the classics, and more mature literature. So, then shortly after my purchase, I left the store. I didn't really notice the hoards of girls outside further up the street outside Much Music on Queen West. My goodness, what a crowd I thought. I thought maybe Prince William was in town...<br />So, I walked by Much Mucic on the way back to my boyfriends apartment, and there he was. wow, I must say, once the hair cleared out of his face, I finally got a good look at him. It was Robert. He is every bit adorable as seen in cardboard, and I guess the hype was well earned...LOL. (Ohh If Robert is reading this I am blushing) <br />Now with the release of the movie on dvd (still have to see it), his face is everywhere! I forgot about him after the Toronto sighting, but only recently was reminded. Therefore, I googled him...HA HA, Yes, I googled him. which brought me here. <br />So, hopefully soon I will have the chance to see the film, and judge for myself how talented this adorable guy is. I am not a fan of books to film, they never seem to fully translate properly in my opinion. With that said, I borrowed the book from my neighbours daughter, and will read it first before I see the film. I was surprised by the sheer size of the novel, not to mention that there are several more in the series. It seems that everyone has gone twilightingly mad about this story, and that man. I have to see for myself. I will check back in to let you know how it goes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3325136241555317156.post-30876163644309277702009-04-14T20:52:00.000-04:002009-04-14T20:52:00.000-04:00Dear model/yoga/industry lady,

I am a 35 year old wom...LOL,<br />I find this hilarious.<br />I am a 35 year old woman who is in a relationship with a 23 year old man. Mind you, when you are in the industry, it is somewhat more acceptable. For me, I am the one who is in the public eye due to my modeling, and he is just your average guy. Not so average to me. We met at a class I was helping teach (yoga) and only after a year of developing our friendship did I finally give into his unyielding persistance. I do not look my age at all, and he does look very young. For the record, I do not have any trouble meeting men my age, or older for that fact. So its not like I had not other opportunities. I was having trouble meeting the right kind of man. Its better to be alone than be in a realtionship out of fear of being alone. Back to my point. What I do find strange is women who are on the hunt that run around stalking these young actors. Please women, you are giving us a bad rap. Think really hard about your actions. My situation did not happen due to my celebrity status. I am not a celebrity if you compare my occupation to his, I am however, stalked by men of all ages. I too find it weird and a tad alarming to have 60 year old men ask me out. However, with that said, if a friendship developed, where the hormones were at bay, then maybe it could turn into something else. You never know. I came accross an interive with him (Robert) on the televison a while back and he seems like an old soul. So, with that said, it will attract older women to him and vice versa.
