To be quite honest, no. I think alot of the fans now have watched the movies then read the books. I for one, read the books first. I'd been a fan for about a year before the movie was announced. But alot of the fans now, saw the movie, then became really interested. And there's nothing wrong with that. But if you call yourself a "fan" just because you saw the movie, or just because you think the guys are hott, then that's not really a fan. :) No offense intended.
Um tinkerbell1998...first of all ...learn to spell...second of all...this is an opinion...if you dont agree with it ..thats ok but there is no need for you to act like a baby....
I think that people are fans from the book cause, yes it came out first, but also because, and this is just my opinion, the book is better than the movie, and the actors in the movie aren't even really that great. Well most of the actors did a very good job but I don't think Robert, or Kristen were that good. No offence to them.
To be honest I didn't know the book exsisted until after the movie came out,My sister told me they did after she went to see the movie with a friend of hers who had read the books. I seen a commercial for Twilight on t.v and I thought I was interesting. I never did go see it in the theaters only my sister did. Before the dvd came out I bought the first book and loved it. I started reading the series on a Friday and by Sunday I was done the whole series. When I finally seen Twilight I was disappointed to say the least. I was upset cause they left out major scenes and I was kind of hoping that the scene in the hotel would have been more detailed.But that didn't stop me from buying the 3 disc special edition. lol. I hope they do New Moon better.
i dont think so cuz some people just watch the movie. not a lot of people actually read the books!!! but i read them a million times than watced the movie.
