    OMEJEJEJJJJ!!!!!!!!!! I AM SO HAPPY!!! Now that HAVE to do Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. They way they ended Twilight–obviously they thought they’d be making a sequel. Although, to get Renesmee right, Breaking Dawn can’t come out for a while but AHHHHHHHHHHHH SO EXCITED!!!!!

    I wonder who they will be casting as the VOLTURI? Who do you guys think they should cast for Aro, Caius, Marcus, Jade, Alec,Felix, Demetris, and the wives.I do wish they would have gone with another director, or screenwriter. A lot of the fans weren’t to happy with the movie, and twilight did not get good reviews. Hopefully they will come out with a better script and lines for the actors, and have better special effects, since there are going to have some action, and wolves the size of horses.

    i don’t think taylor should play jacob since he has these growth spurts, and could pass for a 25 year old. I think they should have that guy from the covenant.

    I am so excited!!! My only question is how are they going to introduce the Volturi? they never made the reference to it in the movie, so I’m wondering if they’ll bring that information from the first book in to the new moon movie? Viewers really need that info so when Bella finds out edward went to Italy you really get that oh god factor of astonishment and get the excitement going again???? any one else got any idea??

    i really hope they end up doing a lord of the rings thing and film the rest of them at once. that way, the aging isn’t noticable and they’ll be able to cut costs durring filming.

    Yeah I have no idea how they are going to introduce the Volturi. I am not a fan of the 2nd and 3rd book. I am sorry but I can’t stand Jacob, he is so annoying. I will still go watch the movie whenever it comes out. I just hope the special affects are better. I mean they weren’t terribly bad but now, hopefully since they do have the money to do all that stuff, they better rock.

    I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I AM SOOO HAPPY THEY ARE GOING TO MAKE THE REST. I LOVED THE MOVIE THE ACTORS FOR THE CHARACTERS WERE PERFECT I JUST WISHED THEY STUCK MORE TO THE BOOK.

    I’m fangirling so bad right now! Taylor is perfect for Jacob. I don’t want anyone else to play him, BUT Taylor now that I got to see how awesome he is in the part. NEW MOON! Wolves! Finally the wolves get introduced, the heartbreak at the beginning, more of Jessica and Mike, the Volturi, the reunion at the end…!!! ACK! SO excited!

    Here’s my review for twilight: spoilers**

    I LOVED the movie, but to be honest i was prepared for dissapointment. All of the cullens were fantastic and so was charlie! They did so many new things that weren’t in the book but i thought they actually made the movie cooler! IMO they went alittle too far for the kiss scene, edward would hav never let tht happen in twilight, just saying. The ending was really romantic and direct dialog! and i liked the victoria thing at the end, it just showed tht summit totally knew they were making new moon. The movie was also WAY funnier than the book suprisingly. Rob Pattinson kinda suprised me and the acting at certain parts was FANTASTIC lik when they’re talking in the woods just before the meadow scene, the hospital scene, and when he’s freakin out about sucking out the venom. I’m sad tht the critics didnt like it, a part of me wanted them to be like “whoah, we totally underestimated how good this movie was gonna be, as a guy and critic it was amazing! lol

    It doesnt matter if they didnt make a reference to the Volturi because Edward doesnt even mention them until New Moon. He only talks a little bit about them in Twilight the novel and he doesnt even call them the Volturi. Plus they didnt put that part in the movie anyways so its all good

    My twilight review:
    I actually expect dissapointment, because i never liked robert. The story line was perfect (minus Port Angelos which they killed) and the biology scene literally made me pee my pants. But, my favortie part were with Taylor Launter, and I cannot wait until New Moon.

    Its going to be interesting to see Kristen play bella. In twilight, Bella is strong and independent, but then in New Moon she does a complete 180, based on Kristens past performances (“speak” from Lifetime) I think she would do well as a depressed Bella. I wonder how they are going to keep Edward alive in New moon, and how they are going to make Edward and Bella’s relationship stronger since I think that in the movie they didnt make it as strong as it was in the book. Probably because in the book we know what bella is thinking so there is no doubt that she loves Edward with all that she is, but it is much more difficult to portray that passion in a third person point of view. Anyone can say “I love you”, but it is let unknown if the emotion is there. In the movie it seems to me that Bella loves Edward, but on a ‘first love’ sort of level. I’m not sure how to explain it, but its sort of like an immense infatuation. I hope that in New Moon, we’ll see their relationship become stronger so the impact of Edward leaving will be more powerful and heartwrenching. Otherwise I think it would make Bella look like a silly overly dramatic teenage girl.

    The PERFECT Volturi character is definately JOHNNY DEPP i am obsessed with him almost as much as i am with twilight and to bring my two obsessions together??? i would like die of happiness it would not matter what character he plays but i personally think he could play a perfect aro and i am not just saying that because i love johnny or that aro happens to be the biggest character in the volturi haha
