@SonAndHeir well, if the script is good or the actors are allowed to improvise now and again that can make a hell of a difference. Very bad example is the Star Wars Prequel "I don't like sand". The actors are really great, the script is quite trashy. Pattinson is an amazing actor with a great resume in his back. I'm just amazed that he was able to shovel his way out of this stereotype. I'm pretty sure Meyer had her "vision" for the movies and there wasn't much improvisation to go with it.

Edward uses The D.E.N.N.I.S. system from Its Always Sunny to court Bella

[@Quessir]

The funniest thing I've heard Rob Pattinson say about it is during the scene when Bella is being confronted by these guys in the city, and he tears in with his car and frightens them off. He said that Edward is supposed to give them this look of pure, atavistic rage, something that really frightens them... and he's there in his pea coat and white make-up, and what can he do? He was laughing the entire time he talked about it. It would've been much more effective if we hadn't seen his face at all, just their reactions. Catherine Hardwicke had very little budget to play around with but she did the best with what she had and there is a certain low budget and indie charm to it. The sequels were of course made with much more money and it shows.

[@themoviebud1988]

I never thought of it that way but that's actually hilarious 😂 Love how Pattinson could have a laugh at the series despite having the second biggest role. I see what you mean about the whole indie feel. Would have been interesting to see if they'd kept that vibe for the sequels - Stef

This is grooming. Being a constant in a child's life to influence them in a particular direction is grooming. For parents that is called parenting, but someone that plans a relationship and is about 17 or 18 years older? Think of it as if a teacher told himself "right now I'm just a teacher for that little child and right now I don't want anything more, but I plan to be in his/her life and be whatever they need me to, even as a lover at some point" and that teacher is about 20 years older. That is grooming.

Best movie ever

[@florenciahoracio8517]

The Edward version of the books is so god-damned good, when he narrates the part where he mets bella he keeps thinking how can he drink her blood without the whole class noticing? Should he kill the whole class and then get to her? It's really creepily good

[@susanmaggiora4800]

I read that part too. It’s really cool for the scene in the movie where he’s staring at her. Now we know exactly what was going through his mind. That class is lucky he had some control or they would all be dead in less than 10 seconds.

These movies were my life when I was a teenager. Looking back now, I know how ridiculous that was. But at the same time... I’m so protective of them. They really got me through high school. I made friends because of them. They made me happy at the time and I still have an insane amount of nostalgia for them. Don’t get me wrong, I know how bad they are. I know that Bella and Edward’s relationship wasn’t good. But I never looked at them as “couple goals” anyway. I think I latched onto these movies (and books) during a difficult time in my life and used them as escapism. It was easier to think about them instead of having to deal with real life if that makes sense. Which like, wasn’t healthy but I can’t change that now. But I’ll always view these movies through slightly rose-tinted glasses. Like I can see the flaws but I love them anyway. The thing about Twilight is that I was, for lack of a better word, obsessed with it for like... 4 years? I have insane knowledge of these movies and books. And it’s been a long time since I’ve watched them but I bet I could quote a majority of all 5 movies. Like watching this video I just found myself answering the questions you had out loud like I was being quizzed. It’s kind of crazy how much I still remember. Like in one of the movie commentaries Robert Pattinson actually made the “I’m Batman” joke which is kind of ironic. I moved on from this franchise a long time ago. But I’m excited to watch your reactions to the rest of the movies. The best thing by far to come out of this franchise were the soundtracks. I actually used to have the song from when Bella and Edward arrive at school together as my ringtone. So as well as everything else, these movies also introduced me to great music. Good luck with New Moon, I hope it’s not a spoiler to say it’s my least favourite of them all, book and movie wise.

[@themoviebud1988]

If the series helped you make friends and got you through a difficult time in your life by bringing you happiness, then that’s awesome regardless of what other people think. You can recognise the problematic aspects of the material and It had a massive positive impact on you and that’s what counts. Yeah, the music so far has been a treat. Gonna post New Moon real soon and I can see why it’s your least favourite tbh 😅 - Stef

[@katrinab9440]

I've been a fan of the series since I was a teen. I am well aware of the problems with it, but I think some people make fun of it just to be "cool." I appreciate the fact that you two gave it a chance and found the special parts of it. It was so refreshing to watch. Thanks! 🙂

[@themoviebud1988]

I get what you mean. There's plenty to criticise but I know a lot of people were just jumping on the band wagon - Stef

[@Vincisomething]

FYI, there is a new-ish Twilight book told from the perspective of Edward. I borrowed it from my friend and read like 10 pages so far. My friend listened to the audiobook and she said a lot of it is Edward going emo like, "she hates me! Wait she doesn't? But I'm a vampire how could she possibly like me?" This is also how he describes Bella when first meeting her (and I'm copying directly from the book): "Somehow, this girl looked more fragile than her new classmates. Her skin was so translucent it was hard to believe it offered her much defense from the outside world. I could see the rhythmic pulse of blood through her vein under the clear, pale membrane... But I should not concentrate on that."

The whole sparkling thing makes a l i t t l e more sense in the books - Bella says that when she first saw Edward step into the light she thought he was on fire. There is just so much Light when the sun touches their skin, movie never relly shows us what it would be like if every inch of his body was in sunlight. He looked like a living torch _ propobly similar effect has turning the light on and pointing it in the direction of the mirror - you go blind at least that's what I got from the books. Here he is just...glittery? Does it make sense? It is pretty funny either way. No matter how you look at it is an i n t r e s t i n g choice no doubt Shine bright like a diamond!

[@lurategh]

And if I remember correctly it's also bc they're basically hard as stone (which we see much more of in the later films when they "break"). So I guess since they're as tough as diamonds they also...shine like them? Personally, I never minded the whole diamond choice bc like...vampires aren't real. I get that there's a specific lore about them in how they look, but people go "vampires aren't supposed to sparkle!" as if vampires actually exist and this movie's offensive to them. All I saw was Meyer putting her own spin on things, which to me was fine since again...vampires aren't real.
