Ja...I totally agree with everything you said here! Jasper freaked me out! He reminded me of Edward Scissorhands. Robert Pattinson is NOT Edward at all! Period. And Rosalie is supposed to be incredibly beautiful and that girl who played her wasn't.even.close.<BR/><BR/>AND there were just some flat out CHEESY parts in the movie that made me want to vomit.Melodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17597822422886281763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9135550822601139497.post-55916955634954055142008-11-22T20:05:00.000+01:002008-11-22T20:05:00.000+01:00Sorry you didn't like it.

My daughter saw Twighlight last night and loved it (but she's 14) I haven't even read the books, so I couldn't even begin to question.

I have read every book, know them backwards, forwards & sideways so going to see the first movie, I already KNEW they were going to screw it up. Not to mention the cast choice was just BAD! My man, my Rick Springfield (Hubba Hubba) was supposed to play Louis & fit Anne Rice's description PERFECTLY, but they chose BRAD PITT! BRAD PITT????? It was just wrong.<BR/><BR/>Then for Lestat, they choose Tom Cruise (WTF????)! Not anywhere NEAR the description in the book. Not even a little close. <BR/><BR/>The movie did keep to plot & Kirsten Dunst as Claudia was spot on. But then there was "The Queen of the Damned" movie...it was AWFUL!!<BR/><BR/>They rewrote Vampire history & made it into some weird 90's music video/Matrix hybrid Frankenstein thing! I was YELLING at the screen. I even threw popcorn at it. I was disgusted.<BR/><BR/>Even Anne Rice herself volunteered to write the script or consult, but the studio refused. Needless to say, this movie was a colossal failure!<BR/><BR/>So yeah, unless the author is involved with the script & production of the movie, it's gonna likely suck the Big Kahuna!<BR/><BR/>PS: i took the word verification off..happy now???

Will my impression be better of the movie for not reading the book? Should I read the book after the movie? Right now, I MIGHT have a chance to see the movie next weekend, but then I still have Bond to see too.
