We, Jeff and I, bought our Opening Night New Moon Tickets about 3 weeks ago, we didn't realize that the 19 of Nov was on a Thursday... I got off work at 5pm, Jeff had a business/accounting meeting to go to at 7pm... (not that we were rushed, the movie didn't start until 12:05AM Friday. We still had to drive down to Layton to meet up with my BFF Stacy (Suga) and her husband Nick. (It was middle ground since they live in Bountiful). I have read all the books and after watching Twilight the movie, Jeff was intrigued enough to read all of them as well.
The first movie, I was slightly disappointed with... I felt that the acting was mediocre (like the cast hadn't read the books and didn't know what they were doing but reading lines) the special effects were good which made up for the lack of low budget. Also, as a twilight fan before the movie came out, I was a little disappointed with the choice of cast crew members.
However, the second movie, NEW MOON, totally redeemed itself! perhaps the cast finally got comfortable with one another and they read the series, so they can really acted the part and or character. Plus, this movie seemed to flow better, not as jumpy and spacey as the last one.
The atmosphere of Opening Night... surrounded by teenage immature girls screaming and "goo goo gagaing" at every word Jacob or Edward spoke! VERY ANNOYING! however, it was really fun to go on a double date with 3 of my favorite people!
So for those of you who are unsure if you're going to watch the New Moon movie, if you've read the book and liked it you will like the movie.. just make sure you wait a few days so all the teenie bopper kids go and get out of the theatre before you watch it. It will make the movie that more enjoyable. And for those of you that didn't read the books, it is entertaining with drama love-triangle action! Not at all hard to follow, my friend Suga hadn't read past the first book and loved it!
Once the movie got over I was dead tired! I had to go to work in 4 hours! I slept all the way back home! :) worth it, even though I was barely functioning at work the next day... but so what my boss is a jerk-off!
