I had an original article that was like 8 pages that said my opinion on every single scene (lol) but I decided to shorten it and put it up here ;D. Ummm... I'm pretty critical, but please don't bash me if you don't agree. This is simply my opinion. It's not like it even matters... lol

One Word: Disappointment. If anyone asked me to describe the movie to them, that is what I would say. It was a disappointment. And, I think that's a generous statement for how awful it was.
(Now, to the people that loved the twilight movie, I'm sorry I don't agree with you. But, again, don't get really angry... just close the window right now because it will get uglier.)
For starters the movie moved much too fast. If I hadn't read the books I would have been confused out of my mind. One second they were becoming friends the next he was angry the next he was all in love (and by the way, did they even tell each other I love you?? I don't even remember them doing that!). It's like they just made some random scenes and pushed them together and didn't even bother to check and see if it worked. It just clashed. And than when he kisses her he says "I've been watching you sleep for the last couple months. Okay, it felt like a couple DAYS, first of all. If I were making the movie, and I was pressed for time, how I would have made it look like it had been months is I would have simply filmed him ignoring her in the bio room a few times, and have Bella "narrate" and say it had been months since he'd talked to me or whatever (even though I really didn't like Kristen's corny narration). It did not work at all.
And, another thing I was disappointed with was how EXTREMELY different it was from the book. I'll admit, some parts stayed very true to the book (the baseball scene, meeting the cullens etc) but most of it was just like "WHAT?". Now I know a bunch of people are going to tell me that it is hard to transfer such a long novel to the screen but, please! I could do better than that. I mean, it's like the screenwriter wanted to find some way to make sure everyone knew it was her movie and not Stephanie Meyer's. And do you know how she did that? She made sure that EVERYTHING was out of order, nothing matched to the book, AND she added just random scenes that had nothing to do with the book or even existed.
Examples? Lets see... one thing that REALLY pissed me off was there was NO Ben... where did he go?? I thought Angela went to the prom with him! Instead they erased Ben and Lauren from the plot completely and Ben and Angela don't even end up together :( Not cool. And, I really liked them. So that seriously bugged me that they got rid of Ben and made Angela be with Eric... who is the creepiest of them all.
Also, who the hell was Weyland? Am I going crazy or was he not even in the book? Why did they insist on adding just random plots that don't even have to do with the book?? FRUSTRATING.
Another thing I seriously disliked was how out of character a lot of the actions/lines were.
One thing that really stuck out in my mind was the meadow scene. First, Edward (RobPatz) is like dragging her by the arm and than he whips her on his back and than he like drops her carelessly to the ground when he gets to the "sun spot" or whatever. That was completely out of character. Edward treats her like a soap bubble (Stephanie's words, not mine :D). He thinks she's so fragile, and on top of that, he wouldn't ever want to hurt her in the littlest of ways.
Bella was out of character quite a lot too...
And I was uber, uber pissed that they left out the scene where James tells Bella about Alice. HELLO!!! That is crucial!!!! URGG! That made me too mad for words!!
The ones who stayed in character the most were Alice, Jasper, Rosalie, and Emmett (who all had the best performances).
Now, I'll stop complaining and say the good things I liked.
I have to say, there wasn't much. It could be because I'm pretty harsh and critical, or it could be simply because the movie was simply BAD. Terrible, actually, would be a more accurate description (in my opinion).
But, I did REALLY enjoy the little snippets of Jalice they gave us. Those tiny little shots of them were way more entertaining than all of the EB combined. The little hand holding shot, the little shot where she was leaning into his chest... awww heart-melting. I loved it<3 I'm definitely going to make a Jasper/Alice video with that stuff when the DVD comes out ;D
Another thing I really liked was the baseball scene. It was so cute and funny and all the Cullens were just so awesome. Jasper's little baseball bat trick was hot, and I loooved Emmett and Edward's clash in the sky<3
I also really liked the short little scene in the jeep. That was great acting and didn't make me feel awkward at all. Thumbs up to Robert and Kristen for that :D.
The acting wasn't that bad, it was mostly just the script. The ones with the most astounding performances would probably be Jackson, Ashley, Taylor, Kellan, and Nikki but everyone did well. It's just that they were given such a sucky script to read from... :( Now, I was , however, disappointed with Kristen's performance for some time. I actually thought she would bring a lot to the role but she didn't. I mean, she was good, but just not as good as anticipating. But, NOTHING was as good as I had anticipated. Except the Jalice scenes. I actually thought they would completely ignore them but they didn't and that made me happy to see some of them. Except, I was mad that we didn't see them at prom :(

So that's what I thought of the movie. Overall, I'd probably give it 3 stars or 2 and 3 quarters of a star (lol) and that's being nice, in my opinion. It was just so bad to me. It sucked. And I LOVED the books... :(

It was 7:40 am and I was still tired I didn’t sleep much do to the fact I was still adjusting to my new room. It reminded me of a hospital room a little, simple white walls and ceiling little furniture I don’t know how I didn’t relies it before. I didn’t like it I’d have to do something about it soon. I looked at the clock on the wall it read 7:45 now. I’d have to hurry if I didn’t want to be late. I rushed to put on a cute...

Bellas POV
When your life is messed up... who do you turn to? Lets just say... I had to join them. Not that I wanted to. The burgendy eyes, it made feel like a killer. Watching and waiting for humans. Having, to follw orders and using my powers on the innocent. Yes I am, part of the Volturi. Well, I was. I am Isabella Swan; and this is my story...

Running was my strength, however, strength was my weakness. I felt like flying when I ran. It was dark, with a full moon; and no stars were out. All that surrounded me; were trees and dirt. But behind me were the guards. "She'll be back. Or she will...

“this is not my daughter” my father said. And shook his head.
“our daughter just grew up and needs more attention Edward” my mom said.
“bella this isn’t our renesmee this is…” I cut my dad off.
“this is who? Dad just because I changes doesn’t mean im not ur daughter” I told him. It took him a very long time to say anything. I got so tired of everything I left then and ran to my room. I gathered a lot of clothes and put it in my luggage. I went down stairs and to my car.
“nessie wer r u going?” my mom asked. I didn’t want to hurt anyone here, it was all an accident,...

MY room was the way i left it, bed unmade, blinds wound down, even the plate at my desk still remained in its place, I was 5 years old when i left, and things were identical at age 17. The air smelt of dust, it was aslo foggy, i had to fight the dust to make it through my way to the blinds. Opening the blinds, Light began flitering throught, at this moment all the memories floated in.

Flash back.

Knock knock!
"Come in, if you dare"i giggled a innocent laugh, a child, i was 4 years old.
"Hello my darling, you getting up your silly games again, thats very naughty of you, you know good little girls...

Bella:
I was confused, at why he lead me into a dark room. When it lit up, there were two thrones. I was confused; but a little nervous. "You see my crowning is next week. And to be Ruler, I need someone by my side. And to be honest; I've never met anyone like you. What I am saying is, Isabella Marie Swan, will you take my hand in marraige, and be my wife and Ruler by my side?" He asked seriously. But I could dectect, the hint of love in his eyes. Suddenly, I felt the world has stopped moving. I was speechless, I didn't no what to say. I was about to cry. "Yes Edward. I will." A few tears came...

"Bye guys." I got up and left, bumping into people a few times some on purpose but mostly on accident.

>1. Who is your favourite male character and why?
Hmm, it's got to be Jasper! I started loving Jasper properly in the Twilight movie, when I saw how Jackson played the part, and then when I re-read the books, I was surprised that I hadn't noticed him as much before. I think he's a great character because he has a whole past that you don't know about until Eclipse, and it's brilliant to find out how he met Alice! To be honest, there's not really anything I don't love about him!

Well, that's quite a difficult question, because there are...

Hi! I am Mary Alice Brandon Cullen, but i prefer to be called Alice! my family is:
me
Jasper
Bella
Edward
Rosalie
Emmet
carlisle
Esme
and Renesmee(Nessie!)

The reason i got this diary was because nessie forced me into it. " Look auntie Alice! i bought this for you!" That mean little angel! nessie bought me this diary, and you can't say no can you! so really this is annoying, and i probably won't even do a second entry!Nessie also bought me a blue jacket. there was 2 tickets that came with it. the tickets were to go to this beach place. " auntie Alice! do you like this coat? you won't like the tickets! i will take them! Jasper and me just looked at each other when she said that. Anyway she is growing up so fast i feel depressed. God, 200 years old tomorrow! Yay! I have to go now thought bye!

"Come on! Get up, Get up!" Alice was chanting in my ear. "I have our whole day planed. Shopping for your dress, getting our nails done-which is at 9-, lunch, and then I invited Rosalie to come with us shopping for her a dress after." She was now shaking my bed. "Come on! You have 5 mintues to get up, 20 to get ready. Move your booty!" And with that my room went queit. Finally.

I sighed and rolled over, burrying myself deeper in my blankets. "Get up!" Alice yelled right in my ear, causing me to shoot up muttering a few curse words as I walked to my bathroom.

Bellas POV
I was told by a colourful girl, I won't last for more than a day. I just moved to Forks and enrolled in Myth high. As I was walking down the corridors of the school, I got scared. Was it me; or did something seem a little odd? Every where I go, people were in costumes, but I asked, (and how could I be stupid?) That they weren't costumes after all. The students are actually monsters. I wasn't sure wheather to scream or faint. But I got on with it. As I was walking, I bumped into a group of emo kids, (atleast I hope that they are emos.) "Erm excuse me can you tell me where to find...

Chapter 2

    It’s been 2 years scene I have left Forks, Washington. I haven’t talked to Charlie at all and I haven’t even seen him at all. It kind of makes me think he’s died but yet again that would be wishful thinking on my part. I love my father it’s just I never understood why my father was blaming me for the death of my mother and my newly baby sister or brother. When I didn’t even really know them because I was too young. I sometimes think my fathers the one that killed them but I have no prove besides memories of the night my loving mother never coming...

End of Chapter 16:
“I believe you…..” I was about to say I believe you but I was cut off by a blood curling scream through my head that just clicked something in my mind that felt like it switched something on. Then all of sudden I knew who’s scream that was it was my daughters and just by her scream I could jump out of whatever state I was in and I was able to feel and see again and ready to take whatever I needed to keep my kid safe.

The first thing I saw when I awoke from whatever it was Alec, Jane’s brother who can disable you from sound, seeing, and that moment he...

Bella's POV

Alice pulled me upstairs an hour and a half ago! It's been like forever since I saw Edward well actually an hour and a half but still I wanna hold him in my arms. I sighed. "How much longer?" "A few more minutes!" she said pleased. Ugh! I can hear everyone downstairs they are back from hunting.

I smelled something funny. "Alice, I think smell something or someone." Alice laughed. "You gotta be kidding me! I smell nothing. Plus I would a vision remember, silly." I nodded. She's right. But a few months ago someone slipped by her she could be wrong. I opened my mouth to say something...
