What is it about the Twilight series that is just so enticing? Is it the half naked under aged werewolf? Is it the emo statue like vampire? The idea of a normal everyday girl being swept into the center of an immortal world? Or is it just because it's just a nice place to escape too? I'm not sure.
It might be the friendship that she has with her best friend and boyfriend. It might be the idea that we all have happy ever afters and get what we want. Or it might just be because it'd be cool, if back in HS this happened to us. Or the idea of a man like Edward Cullen or Jacob Black, is possible...
Whatever the reason. I drove four hours, just to be on the set while in Italy. I flew half way across the country to see it over night. I pulled an all nighter after flying across three times zones, and I'd do it all again... for only this series. If someone could put crack into words, it's definitely Stephenie Meyer. For some unknown reason this saga, this story is incredible to watch come to life. And the reality is, the lines are cheesy, the plot is kind of lame and the acting isn't exactly Oscar worthy. It's still delicious and with each movie it has more and more potential.
Why do you like the series? --- or if you don't, why don't you?
sometimes it's just baffles me because I turn into a school girl, squealing for the New Moon release this weekend. & it had me thinking, wow... I'm giddy over a movie that isn't targeted towards me but gosh I love it just as much as the next twelve, thirteen or ten year old. I know I'm not alone (twilightmoms.com is proof for sure) and I'm DEFINITELY not ashamed of it. I definitely enjoy feeling young again (not that I'm really old or anything) and getting excited over something. It's a great feeling, it just made me think.
