Hi Abigail! I loved reading your perspective on the new Twilight movie! If a die hard fan like yourself gives the movie a thumbs up, well that is good enough for me. Planning to rent the first two and then see the third one ASAP!

Nicely said Abigail.

I am not a fan of the books (read the first two), but my friend Susan (who is much, much older than you) is a huge fan and she begged me to go along with her and some other Twitards (they call themselves this name, so I’m not being rude).

Since this movie was based on the 3rd book, I was unfamiliar with the story and I have to say the movie was downright confusing. That being said, I realize this movie was made for the fans, not for people like me. A girl sitting behind me kept asking her friends questions until one of my friends turned around and snapped, “You should have read the book!”

I find it very interesting that the filmmakers worked so hard to please the fans and not the average movie goer. I guess they figured right because the movie is killing at the Box Office.

Wait, Christian? aren’t there labor laws that don’t let you do this?

Good job abigail, I hope the “(sigh) taylor lautner” part was you understand the humor of cultural obsession.

Nice review Abigail. My wife wants to see it and based off your review, I just might go with her.

Christian- Good play having her do the review. Nice to see a review from the intended audience of the film.
