Saturday
We watched Twilight's last full show @ MoA which started at 10:15 PM. Loved the movie. I mean for someone who hasn't read the book, I appreciated the movie. Simple as that. There's apparently no need for me to dress up the words.
Why'd they name it Twilight?
"..Google it." - Edward
When we got in the theater, I thought we were pretty early because we're probably among the first 20 people in De Luxe. In 20 minutes, I realized the theater was freakin full. We were just on time. lol. Since he got enough sleep, I knew Jay wasn't gonna fall asleep on this one. Meh, he didn't sleep on me when we watched Madagascar 2 so I guess that's enough assurance to hold on to. XD
The beginning was, in my opinion, dark enough. o.O I heard a girl (who I thought was prolly the lead lady) say "I'd never given much thought to how I would die...", I later learned this was the book preface. Bella, the lead who tells the story, had dry humor. I mean, what's up with the line on her being pale despite living in sunny Arizona? She answered 'maybe that's why they kicked me out'? =_=" On a lighter note, Edward Cullen's role was played beautifully by everyone's beloved Diggory, Rob Pattinson. *swoons*
Oh, and there was this one scene they had in the café where Edward told Bella that he can read people's minds. He went "Money, sex, money. Sex.... Cat". The audience laughed. Then I looked at Jay and saw him smiling, he did that for about a full minute. Then I asked him, "So what are you thinking about right now?" He answered "lolcat". ROFL.
I thought the movie's really good for an adaptation, I'll find out soon enough if it lived up to the bestseller book. I just have one evident complaint with the movie, and that's with Kristen Stewart who played Bella. She sort of acted too flatly, rather emotionless if you ask me. If you watch(ed) the trailer you'd know what I mean. You're supposed to be really excited or awed and scared at the same time if you find yourself standing on top of a tree, looking at the vast forest, with or without a vampire. Argh.
When the movie ended, we got up along with the rest of the audience; I was personally feeling rather satisfied. Jay asked me something while we walked out, it went like this:

Jay: So, how would you rate the movie from a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest?
Me: *thinks* ... I'd say about 8.
Jay: *smiles* Ako rin. I'd give it a 7.5.
Me: (thinking I wanna read the books soon, crap~ now I need to save moolah for that)
Jay: I liked how the story revolved on forbidden love.
Me: *stares at Jay* Haha.. I like how you said 'forbidden love'.
Jay: *gives a 'huh' look* What?
Me: I said, I like how you said 'forbidden love'. Doesn't it kinda remind you of something?
Jay: *grins smugly* Did you mean something or someone? (he was referring to a past)
Me: I meant something, not someone.
Jay: Hmm, di e, baka someone. *laughs*
Me: Definitely something. An emotion is a thing, right?
I intended to refer to what we actually had. Or maybe just what I thought we had... lol. I liked the movie because I found something that connects us to them.
By the time we got out of the cinema, it was dark and the hallways were packed with none other than the movie watchers. Bah. Way past curfew... How the hell am I supposed to go back to the boarding house?! ;__;

LOL
I reviewed it, but never officially gave my 10-star rating. Out of 10 I'd give it a 5.
1 of those stars is for the LOLs even when it didn't mean to be funny. Didn't the unbelievably bad acting get to you?! Hahaha. :P
Bella's did. :p I don't know squat about the book so I'm about to find out how much I missed.
Who can say there was a movie adaptation better than the book diba? lol XD
