Saturday, my mom, sister, Wendy, Natasha and I had a girls Night out. We knew we were going to go see tWiLiGhT but we ended up at Texas Road House for dinner first. The food was FANTASTIC! I really think they are one of the BEST Values in town. Great food (and lots of it) at a fantastic and affordable price. When we were done eating we headed to the Theater (like a block away) and we were 45 minutes early! (we had to make sure we got the best seats-Right?) But even being 45 minutes early, there was already a line to the back door. I couldn't believe it! These people are crazy, and I was totally bummed. We were going to have to split up and not sit together or have really crappy seats. LUCKILY.....We had Gimp 1 (Wendy who has a broken ankle) and Gimp 2 (Natasha just had knee surgery and was on crutches) and the kind Westates Theaters workers let them in first and they were able to save us some seats.
But I want to go back to being in Line......There was this Lady in front of us (in line) who I will kindly refer to as Crazy Twilight Lady. She would not shut up about things she didn't know about. She was saying that Stephanie Myers did all the film work herself and wrote the screen play (which obviously in the opening credits she did NOT), and blah, blah, blah. She almost didn't go to Disneyland because she wanted to see the movie on opening day....blah, blah, blah. (miss out on Disneyland?! i told you she was Crazy) She had just pulled in from California dropped her kids at the Babysitters and came to the movies. She was nearly hyperventilating when she kept saying "I can't believe I'm getting to see Twilight the weekend it came out, I never thought I'd get to" over and over again. But here is the REAL kicker. She said that she tends kids from her home and runs her own daycare, and that her husband was REALLY happy when she finally finished the last book.......ummmm....so what.....the kids you are supposed to be caring for were just out of control, chillin' with your husband?Yeah---like i said CrAzY tWiLiGhT lAdY.
And now that I've totally dissed Crazy Twilight Lady (sorry lady)
On to HeAtHeR's MoViE rEvIeW........
I LOVED the MOvie! This movie couldn't have failed even if it had naked chanting and raving men in the forest. Edward was HOT, Jacob was even HOTTER! Even Chief Charlie Swan and Billy were good looking in their own rugged authority figure ways. Bella was beautiful and simple, Alice was cute and bubbly and perfect for the role. Rosalie was fantastic and so beautiful. Carlise was nearly hotter than Edward. And Esme was THE perfect mother and so accommodating. You really could tell The cast was hand picked by Stephanie Myers. They were all just as she saw them in her head. One of the best parts was when Edward shows Bella why he can't be seen in the Sunlight. His Diamond skin was dazzling and better than I had expected it to be...
I read a few reviews before hand......Most were complaining about petty things like Edward's chest hair (which wasn't REALLY bad, his arms were worse) but I kind of agree with that. Edward should be smooth like "marble" right? Another review said that it didn't stick to the book at all....What movie did that person see? or rather what book did they read. It was so close it was almost scary! Of course it couldn't possibly be exactly like the book but it was pretty dang close!
I'm gonna go see it again when the crowds die down, It will be interesting to see what I did and didn't miss. How did everyone else like the movie?
