A viewing of Eclipse has been suggested for our next GNO and I had to put my foot down. Not even for a shirtless TL will I plunk down $11 and sit through 2 hours of ridiculous dialogue and terrible acting.
Let's also not forget the horrible writing that started all this! I ranted on my blog about those terrible books which were made even worse by the wooden acting. They didn't have much to work with but still!
Edward - stalker; Bella - co-dependent; Jacob - creepy with that imprinting of their baby. Then the aggressive sex, pregnancy, and birth were a horror show all on their own, but I get ahead of the movies. Sappy romance novels geared toward unrealistic adolescents!
I read them because of my granddaughter and wish she liked Harry Potter for fantasy instead. Those were well-written and promote love for friends, courage, independence, and other qualities worth caring about. Pattison was better as Cederic Diggery.
yes but I am still using a GNO (Girls Night Out) to go tonight. Sad yes but plenty of cute boys to keep you occupied for 2 hours.
