Twilight Sequel Gets Started

AAAHHHHh yes, i loved the twilight movie even though they left out parts but i can't wait till new moon comes out!!

Nobody's applauding the Twilight series for the writing. I'm one of those people who stopped reading books for preteens and teens in 7th grade, and basically read nothing but classic English literature from then on. So yes, Radish, like you I'm appalled at the way it's written. However, you can't deny that there's a good plot going on. If you don't like it then don't read it. There's no need to ruin the fun for others.

Ok I'm going to say that people have their own opinions, I get that but unless you want to be bashed by a bunch of Twilighters you probably shouldn't voice those negative opinions around so many people who love the books. I'll admit at first the whole Vampire love thing didn't appeal to me until one of my roomies told me to read it and I fell in love. Of all 4 books, New Moon was my least favorite and just like most other girls, I wanted Edward to come back but if they just completely took out the middle part of the book with Jacob, new Twilighters who haven't read the book won't get what Bella had to go through and how Jacob, whether you liked him or not, helped Bella through Edwards absence.

As for calling it a Tween book, I don't agree with that at all. Most of the people I know who read the Sage are finished with their teenage years. It's a good book, yes it has flaws but none of your papers from school were perfect either so enough with giving Stephenie crap about it. It's not a big deal...it didn't completely screw up the books with little misspelled words, or sentences that didn't make 100% perfect sense. Regardless of whether it's like the classics or not, be happy children are finding something interesting to read. Even if it is fiction, about supernatural characters, it shows them reading can be fun, and love is not something you only see on tv.

The movie...I think won't be the book for sure, but no movie adaptations of books are ever the same, but being an "indie" production company and a fairly new director, I believe Catherine Hardwicke is doing a wonderful job and I'm going to see the movie in just a few hours because I am a Twilight fan and I don't care what others think about that, whether they like it or not.

I totally diagree with anyone who thinks this series is not worth it. It is not just teenagers reading and loving the books. I am 30 and I know many people around my age and older who have read these and love them. And who can't wait to see the first movie and all the rest of the books made into movies!

Hello, some of you are not Twilighters, and some of you (Well most of you) are. First of all, let me start off by saying that Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn are great books. I know the movie will have taken and added things to it that were/n't in the book and this makes me excited and sad. Secondly, as an unprofessional writer of many things paranormal (me), these books are excellent. We are only human, so yes, Lauren, there are mistakes in the books and some sentences may not sound right, but we weren't born with automatic correcters in our brains. Third, no, Radish Baby, we don't have to be obsessed. We can read other authors. But at least the ones who are obsessed aren't obsessed with something else. Think, they could be obsessed with some things not appropiate. Yes, I understand that Eclipse and Breaking Dawn have some instances in them that may be a little *ishish*,(yes, I did just make up a word) but we are going to learn about that stuff anyway. Also, as some of you have said, the saga has introduced many great works of literature to us teens who mostly wouldn't give them the light of day unless we were forced. don't get all worked up because many girls are crazed over Edward Cullen. That's just normal teen behavior. and even some Moms I know would ditch their husbands for a night with Edward. So don't overreact. Adios. Goodbye.

Radish baby, ArmadaChild and Bebe, all of you should really get off your high horse and enjoy the thrills of being a teenage girl. Maybe you're not one, which probably explains why you're so inimical towards the Twilight phenomenon. Oscar Wilde's great, so is Sylvia Plath, but during that time, they were probably criticised for being too revolutionary or too self-pitying. So I think we should embrace the new waves of literature, and accept the fact that Twilight has taken over the literary scene, is about to take over the cinemas, and is here to stay. Stephenie Meyer may not be Shakespeare, but is he the only one who deserves our attention? It amazes me that despite the large number of 'good literature' you all expose yourselves to, you're still being so parochial about contemporary fiction. No-one's striving to be the next Shakespeare, but unless you can be as successful as Meyer, I suggest you broaden your closed minds a little bit and understand that good literature is possible when you allow it to be.

Anyway, they should SERIOUSLY continue making the rest of the movies. I'll watch them all at least five times in the cinemas each! New Moon is the best out of the Twilight saga, imho, and I really want to see how Bella&Edward cope with being apart, so I'm definitely keeping my fingers crossed for New Moon (and Eclipse and Breaking Dawn) to be made into a movie too! Please do so, Summit (and Catherine Hardwicke!). Twilight fans will love you for that!

Twilighters, unite.

umm first of all, to those who are saying do something better with your time and donate to the community and what not...what are unaware of is that Twilight websites have already put together various causes for the fans...for instance there are Twilight t-shirts that when you buy them money goes to cancer and then donations have been made to the town of Forks to help out the entire town...so please do not say things before educating yourself first....and i myself do read a variety of books and admit that Stephenie Meyer's books may not be filled with millions of metaphors and alliteration and millions of themes and so on and so forth...but who are you to say what GOOD literature is supposed to be...maybe the definition of a good novel is simply a private place where you can visit whenever you want to and have fun doing it...and she can string a grammatical sentence together, who the hell is going to allow a novel to be published without it using proper English...I am sick and tired of Twilight haters.... so many people are generalizing the whole fandom into a twelve year old, fan who has no clue about anything...like i said before do not judge something so harshly simply because you just do not understand it

and i myself do read a variety of books and admit that Stephenie Meyer's books may not be filled with millions of metaphors and alliteration and millions of themes and so on and so forth...but who are you to say what GOOD literature is supposed to be...maybe the definition of a good novel is simply a private place where you can visit whenever you want to and have fun doing it...and she can string a grammatical sentence together, who the hell is going to allow a novel to be published without it using proper English...I am sick and tired of Twilight haters.... so many people are generalizing the whole fandom into a twelve year old, fan who has no clue about anything, which is completely false YET again! Wow society is sad, to think that people go to all this trouble to try to offend others, who are so passionate about BOOKS of all things? that is soo sad

This is ridiculous. I am ashamed to be a young woman because of the likes of you.

But what can I say or do? You'll plug your ears and say, "La, la, la!" whenever someone tries to point out the flaws in the series. "tru wuv" is one of the most dangerous fantasies in existence because it makes unnatural demands of both men and women. I hope many of you realize that before it's too late.

Enjoy your movies. I will await Star Trek.

God.

I do so wonder how they are going to make a film of breaking dawn I mean, I know for sure Rpattz won't agree to chew a baby out of KStew's uterus.

To all who have nothing better to do with their time than come and comment about books they dislike greatly and think are badly written- good for you.

To all who have previously been fans and now realise the error of their ways in loving the book series, because it's "horrible"- good for you.

To all who feel the need to abuse people because they're being honest about the fact that they might get a little bored with a severe lack of Edward- good for you.

I'm so very sorry that I have this thing called a mind of my own and that I enjoyed the series immensely. I'm extremely sorry that I don't sit on a chair and abuse people self righteously because I don't find what they read to be "high literature" and I suppose I should apologize for finding myself a tad bit bored halfway through New Moon as well. (Jacob was an integral part of the story- doesn't mean I had to "Love" every minute of it and I'm not "a true twilight fan" if I didnt.) Applause for Kat by the way.

Here's a fact for all you supposed intelligent, good literature book lovers though. Most twlight fans acknowledge and accept the books "faults" in terms of simple writing... and it doesn't change anything. I know you all wish you could dictate to everyone what they should be reading and what they MUST enjoy but guess what? An opinion and personal taste is something everyone should be and IS allowed to have. It's why you can read all your list of "great books" (which I have read most of- it's called having a broad reading range) If YOU don't understand that maybe you should invest in this great book called a dictionary.

Yvetty! i totally agre with you!

and i promise that SUMMIT will get the same [or even MORE] fans for the New Moon,
although the theaters might end up having pools of water on the ground, this movie
will be great. even though there's like..no RPATTZ!! awww ;]]

maybe they'll do something cool and show FLASHBACKS! yaayyyy ;]
i love Summit, Stephenie Meyer, and aaallll Twilight fans :]]

Did all of you just completely MISS my huge rant about how silly you're all being about the no-Edward thing?

SERIOUSLY people! Edward does NOTHING! He sits in a corner for most of the time they're apart. Ok,t there's a bit of tracking, but that's it! HE ARRIVES IN ITALY ONLY DAYS BEFORE BELLA!

It would NOT be true to the book to show Edward having fun time adventures, because he WASN'T!

How many times must I make this point? (and for the record, I'm Team Edward - but I'd rather the movies be true to the book.)

Ugh. Read New Moon again, you obviously missed half of it.

Let me get this straight Radish Baby - Your baby is a radish? Damn, sucks for you. EDWARD AND BELLA'S BABY IS AMAZING, AND SHE COULD PROBABLY SET YOUR "RADISH BABY" SCREEN NAME ON FIRE TOO! Please, I don't tell you what to read, you can click the X on the top of your page and move on with your life if Twilight isn't a part of it. And brace yourself, because you know you're going to see it anyways. Whether at the movies, on dvd, or when it premieres on TNT 20 years from now, you'll watch. So shut it. BAM! PS - Jasper would eat you alive. I suggest you read into his character. Someone like you is his perfect meal.

Ok, I'm not a big fan of the books, but I won't say anything about what I think of the books. That's been talked about enough already.

I'll just say that I am a teensy tiny bit excited about seeing Jacob because I like him, but for me, I'll wait until I see Twilight to decide whether I'd see New Moon.

Hey guys, it's me again ... Just so you guys know, for those of you who made the false assumption that I am not a teen -- wrong. Secondly, for those of you who also made the false assumption that I was never a fan of the book -- wrong. I was a huge fan of the book. I realized how horrible of a book it was and stopped reading it.

At least I can feel happy for the uneducated. Thanks to you guys, good literature is being ignored.

I'm afraid for the world. :(

I think Bram Stoker is actually the one rolling in his grave right now...

Vampires don't shimmer/glitter/blingbling in the sun.

Stephenie Meyer FTL

i would love to see all of them
on the big screen.
we all love the books just twilight fans(me included)
have to remember not every part of the book will be in the movie.
it has to be condensed. i love to see breaking dawn on the big screen.

i'm looking for some more twilight fans
email me if you like.

Ok Lauren here is the thing It IS A ROMANTIC STORY!!!! everyone loves a good romantic story So what!!! if there are Typos no one is perfect. As to why they are making a movie out of it well again ITS A GOOD STORY and Hello have you seen other adaptation to other books???? If you have, you must have seen that they make CHANGES to make it more interesting. By the way I DO like Shakespeare, Anne Rice and other authors but that does not eliminate the fact that Twilight is a Good Story. Please Don't Call yourself a Twilight fan or Used to be one... for the way you are talking it seems to me like you were never a true twilight fan so don't say that you were. And Im no teen ether Im 25 years old I love to read and that includes Harry Potter, Twilight, Romeo and Juliet, Great Expectations, Interview with a Vampire and other classics.

I think New Moon should definitely be made into a movie! I would love to see how it turns out, and who they pick to play the rest of the cast. I think Twilight has a 97% chance that it will be an awesome movie and that many people will like it. Also I think just to make Edward and the Cullens a little more into the plot of New Moon, they should show what they were doing while they were gone. I would also love to see who they pick for the rest of the cast, like the wolf pack, Leah, Seth, Emily, Quil, and especially The Volturi (oh yeah!)! Even though I'm on Team Edward for sure, I still love Jacob and the wolf pack almost as much as I love the Cullens! So that brings me to saying that I love New Moon and the rest of the series, and they should DEFINITELY make New Moon into a movie! :)


And by the way "radish baby" or whatever that stupid name is, the Twilight Series is just as much as literature as you say all those other books are. If you actually read and actually comprehend the Twilight books (which I doubt you have) you can see that Stephenie Meyer writes EXCELLENT literature. She actually has some poetry in it and other things, like referring to Romeo and Juliet and Wuthering Heights. Just because you think that Twilight isn't "good literature" doesn't make us not like the books. MILLIONS of people think that Twilight is AWESOME and that it is GREAT LITERATURE, so all that you are saying is really unnecessary and is a WASTE OF YOUR TIME, because no one is going to listen to you! That's all I have to say and all the other million Twilight fans.


PEACE.LOVE.TWILIGHT :)

Bravo Kat----couldn't have said it better myself.As an English major in college the writing in twilight seems Deceptively simple but the sweetness and power of the characters, especially Edward.,seeps into us and anchors themselves to our hearts .Stephenie Meyer has created a truly unique and amazing hero in Edward--- and makes us wish for someone like him for our daughters ,granddaughters,etc. Long live Twilight!!!!

OMG! THANK YOU FINALLY SOMEBODY FOR SAYING IT! *bows to Mr/s Radish* Bonus points for mentioning The Confessions! I thought no one else read them anymore.
