I guess the question isn't so much, "How much do you love Twilight?" BUT "How much cheese do you like on your cracker?" Oh baby, I like me some cheese. This movie was the perfect blend of cheesy/fulfilling. From Jacob's luxurious wig to Edward's brooding eyes, I was in. I knew it would be good when I sat down with milk duds in my right hand and a fountain coke in my left. Although I'm not a card carrying member of the facebook group "I-have-unrealistic-expectations-of-men-because-I-read-Twilight," I have to admit that I am a sucka for the age old dilemma of impossible love between a vampire and a human. All of you men out there who read my blog, of which I am sure there are a ga-zillion, go home and send your wife to the movie with her girlfriends. It was too hard to control my laughs at the bad acting . . . and sighs at the young love. If your husband doesn't read this blog you should probably just send me some money, and I'll pick you up a pirated copy in Chinatown. I'm offering free shipping this week only.
Don't they just look so tormented, yet "in love" in this pic? I mean, seriously, what would you do if you were in their situation? It's not like you can just walk away from that kind of love. And why would you? See, teenage mortals and vampires can fall in love. It just goes to show that you can work through anything. Divorce would never happen if people just looked to Edward and Bella's example. Now, I'm headed back to my own personal dreamland. Where real love blossoms between a woman and her dirty dishes. Where unrequited love for ones laundry is omnipresent. Where passion takes on the form of yes, you guessed it, baking. Yes, you ladies know what I mean. I'm speaking of the undying love for housework. Oh, and of course your hunka-hunka burning love. That just goes without saying.

Quantum of Solace was spectacular in my opinion -- it has that pretty man in it.
Haven't seen Twilight but Emily did on Thursday at midnight (and she is a member of that Facebook group).
Sigh.
I am a card carrying member. Forget Edward his dad was HOT! I mean Daaaannnngggg!
Just one of the ga-zillion men readers wanting to say that I'm going to take your advice. I'll watch the boys so my wife can get her fix of vampire love.
Ok, so I admit I want to see the movie...and I did read the book. However, I only got through 2 chapters of the next book and decided..."I'm not going to read the rest of these books!" I don't read...I don't like to read...and especially don't like fantasy books! I thought that the book Twilight was good...to die for?...no, not really! The only reason I read the book in the first place was because my entire Young Women class has and that's all they'd talk about! Oh well, I'm planning to see the movie this week. I like movies a lot better than books!
So... I admit I haven't read the books or seen the movies & even though I'm a book junkie & I even like fantasy I feel only pain at the suggestion I read them or even listening to other chat endlessly about them. If it was simply a good book. I'd go for it. But I lived through my Harry Potter days and have not wish to take part in another addictive craze... maybe when it's over I'll sit & read to my heart's content. right now... no desire... & too busy... However, this comment hit close to home.
"I mean, seriously, what would you do if you were in their situation? It's not like you can just walk away from that kind of love."
THat situation (from what I know of it) sucks. But think of it as love between a member and a nonmember or something like that. If you've made the decision before, you can walk away. It's not easy, but in a way it is. You know you're doin' the right thing. Maybe even someday, he'll see the light. Maybe. You can always hope. Meanwhile there's life... obedience creates happiness.
Sorry to get all serious on the fantasy life. It's fun to pretend that true love can never be parted no matter how difficult... but sometimes you have to look deeper. Sometimes it's only true in appearance and a great truer love lies elsewhere... sometimes. it's true. i've been told. i believe.
