Twilight better than New Moon....WHAT?!

(20091122T122535Z )

I've just read a new moon review that said that Chris Weitz was a poor director over Catherine Hardwicke and that twilight was better tha new moon.

Were they watching the same two films!?
Twilight in comparison was a total fail. I love the film, of course, but regardless, it's not as good as New Moon in any light. Apart from maybe the soundtrack.
New moon actually had me feeling emotive towards the characters, the acting was FAR better than in twilight, as were the effects and it was just overall a better film.
It annoys me that when they review films that they focus on the effects, the story line and shit like that.
At one point they said that it was too much of a romance film to be a supernatural film. IT IS A VAMPIRE ROMANCE NOVEL!
If it was more supernatural then they would say "it's not romantic at all"
I fucking LOATHE critics. They can't act themselves, they can't create films so they sit around feeling bitter about how crap at everything they asre and just piss off anyone who likes a film. It's opinion and it's taken seriously!
It's the most absurd thing i've ever heard of. and people actually look them up and say "im not seeing that because of the bad reviews"
one of my friends actually check reviews first before seeing a film. WHY?! it's down to whether you like it, not down to some bloke who's probably a balding single man with no future and his distase towards the film ¬_¬

BUH. anyway. I'm tired of ranting and I'm getting Carpal Tunnel, not fun XD

I'm going to play Mario Wii.
comment or something yeah?

    People who review movies are usually way off anyways. I thought both Twilight and New Moon had qualities I liked and disliked. Overall I liked New Moon better. I think the story line was better developed and they did a great job at staying true to the book.

    i thought that new moon was better than twilight, especially the fact that edward and bella seemed closer in this one. but i dont like what theyve done to bella, she shouldnt wear that much make up.

    and im still not convinced by some of the acting, especially edward. he looks like he's holding back. and mike is just ridiculous. but alice is better and emmett, he's got some really good lines lol

    btw, at the end of new moon, when rosalie is saying that she doesnt want bella to become a vampire, does anyone else think that she doesnt look like nikki reed?

    last thing i swear, i know jasper is supposed to look strained, i know its hard for him to be around humans and blah blah blah, but must jackson rathborne portray him like he's got something stuck up his ass?! eeesh :P

    I loved both but I have to say that New Moon was AMAZING! I think that he did a really good job, much better than the first director methinks :P

    Twilight wasn't remotely like the book in comparison to new moon.
    New moon was pretty loyal to the book tbh. They included a load of lines and feelings that are portrayed in the book exactly.

    Twilight added parts in, added lines in, they didn't show any characters like they were meant to beyond Bella, Edward and James.
    They completely changed the book so that the film would be more understandable but it was incredibly rushed and then had some parts in it that could have easily been cut and were quite irrelevent.

    New moon was on a whole other level, it showed emotion brilliantly, the acting was marginally better.

    Tbh, I find most that find new moon boring are only reading twilight for edward. It really annoys me because, although alice is my favourite, I adore her, seriously, i cannot find new moon boring. It's my favourite book.

    The twilight movie sucked in means of ability, Catherine Hardwick massively let the film down.

    New moon was made wayyyyy better than Twilight. It was much longer, plus the storyline was more similar to the book, unlike twilight. It had more action too.. jus sayinn

    ya ur right. Though, u no Twilight wasnt bad, and i love the film. But New Moon was like "WOWWWW!" .. haha they followed the book better and the effects blew me away! The actors portrayed their characters a whole lot better and it was just an epic film hands down. Sorry if i sounded like the ppl u were just ranting about haha

    i agree that crictics are mostly useless, boring, grumpy old men who have no idea what they are actually talking about! New moon was amazing and much better than twilight (even though i still love twilight it just can't compare).

  • (20091123T161011Z )
