I, and all of my friends, would be very happy and everything if a pro.director would re-direct twilight. its so hasnt been done right!too fast and so..not-really-twilight-like (u get the point, right?)they fall in love too soon. EVERYBODY’s agreeing. try a survey or something,or just read the comments flooding this post.

I couldn’t agree more with all of you. I’d love to see Chris Weitz re-do Twilight. I’m really glad the proposal scene in Eclipse made it to the movie.

totally agree with you
saw the movie prior to reading the books
after reading the books, THEN I got it
what a shame and a missed opportunity
You know what they say
“Don’t judge a book by its movie”

vicariousfun I saw the movie prior to reading the books. I went out and bought the books to figure out what all the hub-bub was about. I mean, I liked the books but couldn’t understand WHY they were so big.
translated – MR and KH obviously missed the mark in turning a great book into a great movie. They totally missed out on developing the love story between B & E. If they had a problem with time, they should have left OUT all that nonsense they added and stuck closer to the book.

yes, It unfortunately it looks like from some of the clips of New Moon it’s spilled over. Bella and Edward still don’t look comfortable together, what gives. It wasn’t that way in the books, after the meadow scene their whole relationship changed and the were very at ease with each other. very disappointing.

yes, a redo would be great. I doubt you could get the cast to do it. It’s unfortunate it wasn’t done right to begin with.

I agree. I was really diappointed with Twilight. If I was someone who watched the movie without reading the book first, I would have wondered what the big deal with the books is. She ripped the heart and soul out of it, I’m keeping my fingers crossed for New Moon and Eclipse. I am glad the scene in the bedroom with Edward’s proposal made it in, hopefully the tenderness didn’t get stripped out.
