My Thoughts On New Moon

One of the most famous, or the most famous, vampire story of all time, The Twilight Saga has captured the minds of millions of squeaky teenage girls, middle-aged women, and aging grandmas. Millions of people lined up outside theaters Friday night, to be one of the first to view the sequel to Twilight New Moon. And me being me, I was among those millions of people. Twilight had been very disappointing to me, so I wasn’t expecting much from New Moon, but was I surprised when I walked out of the theater two hours later. The new movie had been extremely better than the first. As expected it was gushy, and full of loving kisses, but it also had a twist of humor to it, something I had not been expecting. Of course this had to do with the wittingly funny, Jacob Black (played by Taylor Launter) who always seemed to have some humorous comeback. The absolute highlight of the film was when Jacob pulled his shirt off. The whole audience was awed, and whistles echoed through the dark theater. Sadly when stunning Edward (Robert Pattinson) took his shirt off, an awkward silence fell over the rowdy audience. I swear I even heard  some select boos scattered around the room. Despite the horrors, the movie picked up, and the whistles emerged again, whenever Jacob appeared. Even as depressing as the movie was, it was good seeing that it was aimed for young teenage girls. The fight scenes were lacking, and there was little damage, which in the end made me somewhat saddened. The ending left me awed and begging for more, and even now I know that I’ll have my ticket to Eclipse (which premieres in June or July?) months before it comes out.
