Twilight, no, Robert Pattinson, abso-freaking-lutely. Every time I see his face on a magazine cover or a poster or calendar I smile and mutter quietly to myself (or sometimes say it out loud because I don't care who's listening ) "Edward was a Hufflepuff." Or "Cheer up, Emo Kid." And Kristen Stewart is no less annoying just not quite as visual.

shes currently working on another movie which is a bio of a singer (which for the life of me i cant remember her name) which with my luck they will go all crazy since its a bio and show her everywhere with that lol.. everything i have seen her in she just seems to just be there and not really into her role.. maybe shes better in the twilight series and found her nitch but going on her past work it doesnt make me wanna see if she has lol

I have not read the book neither seen the movie. I do know that a lot of young women are really going crazy for Robert Pattinson. I am not a fanatic of the movie and the actor. I guess that people really have different preferences.

I have no idea why this one movie was so hyped up. It is just another vampire flick. I dunno. I have yet to watch them. But I will get to it soon. Then I will be able to better tell you if the hype is all it is all bout.

I loved the books but it tends to annoy me when they make a movie out of the books - they make much too big a deal out of it. The movies are ok but i like the books way better. i am looking forward to the next movie though. BUT i will say im one that doesnt really see the point of following what actos n actresses and other famous people are doing...they deserve private lives too.

I dont think i would mind as much if they were actually good books..but in my opinion there not. I mean come on vampires that sparkle?? I dont think so. I know a few vampire novels i would like to see made into movies...but that series was so not one of them.

its pissing me off that some of the new vampire stuff is having them out during the day.. that vampire diaries has them going to school and you cant tell at all (as in no sparkle thank god) that they are different.. yeah i think it would be more realistic but it just goes against everything we are used to and well its not like we want it to be totally realistic anyways.. would take some fun out of it

To me if vampires are going out into the day light it should be for a reason. Like in my story and in true blood...when the vampires risk there lives to help someone else.

Hi Moonlitmagikchild. Honestly, I cant tell you much about Twilight or any of that cause I havent read the books. Its mostly because of the books, if you havent read it, hard to get it. I personally very very tired of hearing about Twilight and the sequels or whatever may be going on. Other than the special effects, Id rather just read the books and later watch the movies. Same thing happened here with Lord of the Rings. There was not much hype but people who knows Tolkien's work totally flipped.. and then just spread and spread till there were people who were tired of the darn thing! I have that same painful nagging with Harry Potter too.

Personally I thought I might be the only one. Same as when there was all the chatter about Harry Potter. I just have never got it, and personally have never had any desires to want to read the books or watch the movies as well. I guess for me since Science Fiction is not my thing, but what is the Big hype about really?

i liked harry potter but never read the books.. but it was more of a thing i did because growing up i wasnt allowed to watch anything with magic etc so since i was an adult and it was on the movie channels i decided to give it a try and liked it.. usually when there is a lot of hype i usually dont like them but i think harry potter is one of the ONLY things i liked.. now am i like buying t-shirts and camping out the day before movies? heck no! just not my style!

No you are not the only one. I have yet to readthe book or see th movie. Which s weird because I really enjoy vampire movies. I guess I will see the movie or read the book in my own time. Just don't want to at the moment. I heard the movie was a let down ompared to the book anyways.

Well, to be honest, the movie seriously s#cked. It was a total waste, but then that may be due to the fact that I have already read the whole series and its totally awesome. I mean I love the book, the description of the different creatures and the entangling of different worlds is just breathtaking. Its simply magical, but the movie they made was just something too dumb. As to put it right, nothing in the movie fit the description in the books. Also there were a total of 4 books in the series so I would certainly expect them to make 3 more movies in continuation then. Any ways don't bother about watching the movie, rather try the books, you won't be disappointed. Take Care

Trust me you're not the only one that is sick and tired of hearing about the movie and the book series in general. I only read the books to see what the buzz was about and I wanted to see how she'd make the whole thing end and it was sickening really. The woman doesn't have any writing talent and for some reason, these stupid people are eating it up. I can't figure out what is so special about it. The whole sparkly vampire thing has turned me off. The characters are way too strange and the story line sounds like something some rejected emo girl would write to make herself feel better about being unloved.

I'm sorry to say that you are sick of hearing Twilight. I'm late in this reaction of liking it so much. I watched the movie and it's ok. Then my sister bought a dvd of the movie and they watched it almost everyday and I'm sick of it... Twilight, Twilight always Twilight... Don't they have any other movie to watch other than Twilight?! Then one day I have nothing to do so I read the book of Twilight and Damn! I'm so fascinated with the story and got addicted to it up to now. I want to know what will happen next and it's really a good book, a page turner. I've finished reading the 3 books and starting the 4th. Just resting my eyes from reading LOL. It's just my opinion. Reading the book is really different than the movie same thing with other book based movie. The movie sometimes don't give justice compared to reading the book.

I haven't read the books or seen the movie either so maybe it's just fabulous and I'm missing out but I can't help but think it's a tad silly. When things are hyped up like crazy I definitely become less interested in them. Twilight is a prime example, every time I see pictures of the 'stars' I want to see the movie less. I'm so sick of the dirty looking hair and vacant, vampire-y expressions!

Im with you, your not the only one. when my friends keep saying about it. I just go away from them and tell them frankly to stop cus im sick of it. Well the movie for me is only for teenagers, vampires, power and everything that is common to us. For me it has no story at all. And its kinda childish. Actors? Hmm i dont know but they are ok.
