Wat the fuck u guys talking about..David Slade will absolutely do a great job on this film…I agree with the guy hu said BD sucked…well,whaddya expect from a bad writer like Meyer…if she were a good writer instead of this horny obsessed bitch…
I’m hoping Slade will bring something new to the table…establish twilight as not only a screen adaptation of the book but a film that stands alone…yall twilight fans will probably watch any film as long as it has Edward Cullen on it..

I read most of the comments above…and I just know only that I’m scared /nervous with those nervous ppl out there. I don’t even want to hold my breath for New Moon let alone now hearing about eclipse- I almost feel like I have to wait for it to come out on dvd before i watch it just to let the hype and excitment or fear and frenzy die down before I can watch it with any hope or love. I think I may have a little faith left in me that Weiz is doing the best he can…it’s just hard that after reading Harwicke’s directorial notebook – that you realise she had so much vision, and she was just as emotionally invested and had a really different perspective on things that I worry those other directors will miss – hence I agree with those who are expressing the sentiment that in all the brilliant action scenes that these directors are known for doing that i only hope for real that the essence of that love and emotional connection between bella and edward will not be lost. Of course we want a visually stunning movie – I suppose that is what ppl are expecting and especially if the movies are meant to be living up to our own imaginations, but what is a movie of eclipse if the key character relationships are not there to see — i just worry that it may not be carried off — that’s the hook – the hook of the book – the hook of twilight — the well told story of the deep angst and pain and love of edward and bella. Anyway I ramble – I ought to give Slade a chance — may watch his movies again – and I suppose we gotta have hope/faith — but what if its too much of the other characters and too much of wicked action scenes without our intense Bella Edward Jacob scenes? I know that’s where Catherine Hardwick really tried to make that Rosenberg script work….Catherine did a great job in my opinion..and watching the dvd deleted scenes and extended scenes you know why she did what she did….some of those extended scenes were great though! I’m really not happy about green screens if they’re used too much lol — as a last thing– twilight felt real.

I don’t know about this guy, David Slade. Those two movies weren’t at all impressive. Eclipse is the absolute best of the series and they get some guy with a flimsy resume!? What’s up with that? Even worse, they continue to hire the same screenwriter who butchered Twilight. If Eclipse isn’t all it should be I will be asking for my money back. I have no interest in seeing the dastardly Breaking Dawn movie either. For me, the series should have ended at Eclipse with Bella and Edward’s wedding. I was so disgusted with Breaking Dawn that I threw it into my closet more than once, I couldn’t even finish it the first time around. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and read the whole series again and BD was still disappointing. I really hope they get New Moon right, a couple of the casting choses are questionable. Like the teenager they chose to play Caius, what are they smoking over there? Movie translations are never as good as the novels!

I agree with you POETESS

um. Now im having second thoughts.
He better read the damn books and get a pretty good clue of just how deep E&B’s relationship is. I think Chris will do phenonmenal with new Moon, with all the CGI and stuff. But, we also need the wolves in Eclispse, and dont forget that we also have the fight scene. dont leave out Bella trying to seduce edward, dont leave out bella realizing she loves Jacob, dont leave out anything really important! David, really, turn into a twihard, or you’ll never get the movie right.

And twilighters; only time will tell if New Moon, Eclipse, and (IM FREAKING PRAYING) breaking Dawn will be as good as we want them to be. We just need to keep our thirst filled with Twilight until New Moon arrives. In other words, watch twilight till you get sick of it becuase we dont have much else till they finish filiming.

Who agrees with me?
