I'M BACK FROM THE GALA PREMIERE OF THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON!
My comments(major spoilers, read at your own risk)
Overall, i think the movie, New Moon, was quite well done compared to the first installment of the saga, Twilight.
However, i'm not very satisfied by how Chris Weitz chose to portray the characters' emotions.
I felt that the despondent scenes were not heart-wrenching enough: it definitely did not jerk my tears. (although Teresa cried twice in the movie...or was I too unemotional? )
I also hated the fact that they fast-forwarded scenes in Eclipse to be shown on New Moon. Rah.
At the end of the movie, Edward and Bella are talking about her transformation, so he tells her that he'll change her himself in 5 years; she rejects the idea and Edward says three; but she rejects it again. Finally, Edward agrees to change her but he has one condition.
" Marry me...Bella. "
And the movie ends.
LIKE WHAT????? THAT WAS A MAJOR CLIFFHANGER!!!!
I couldn't forget the scene. At all. My mind was filled with these three words: "Marry me...Bella."
LIKE ZOMG, I fell in love with Edward once again.
HOWEVER!!!!
I did not like the fact that Edward "proposed" to Bella at such an inappropriate moment, that was when Jacob ran away in a huff. He was furious and i felt that Edward and Bella didn't care about Jacob, at all. Although they were "immortal enemies", i felt that they should give each other some respect D:
I liked it when Bella hallucinates and sees Edward when she experiences an adrenaline rush. I couldn't "feel" it when I was reading the book, but zomg! It was brought to the big-screen. xoxo for that!!
I also liked the scene when Jacob becomes Bella's best friend, but eventually tells her to go away because he has a secret that isn't his to keep. It felt as though "a huge hole has been punched through my chest!" Probably because Bella is experiencing another heartbreak again, my heart goes out to her.
I rate the movie 8/10. :)
