Vampire Obssession



Stumbled onto this movie with zero idea on what's it about and it turned out, to serendipitously sweep me off my feet. Yes, I was ignorant enough to not know the movie I was gonna watch was the novel I always spot in the bookstores I roam all the time. And they never caught my attention 'cause I didn't know it was about vampires TT or else... Hmm... normally the book covers will do the trick to get me
 grabbing them in the 1st place.  So... could it be the cover is not attractive enough to my liking? ><>

(p/s: this image above is a wallpaper I found from Google Images so feel free to save it up and start ogling over the sexy vampires!: Emmet, Alice, Edward, Bella, Jasper, Rosalie)

I really love just how they portray the 'vampires' in this movie. It doesn't show all the cliche elements you expect to see in a vampire movie. I don't want to go too detailed about this here since I find this part so fascinating for me since I didn't read the book, so witnessing the characters' appearance this way plays a very important part and reason to why I am so crazy about this movie. Given that the most fascinating part of vampires are simply their characteristics, appearance and whatnot. So I'll leave this awesome part out for you to find it out yourself! XD Well, the story was adapted from a another teenage romance love novel but instead of seeing the fangs, sinking into necks of beautiful woman, bloody and all... it's a pretty subtle blend of cool romance. Which... could be something refreshing? (or maybe I'm just so blinded) A lot of mixed up feelings between two immortal and mortal kind of "Romeo & Juliet" story. (as the reviews and media press comments call it) An indifferent teenager, Isabella Swan who moves to a small rainy town and fell in love with a vampire, Edward Cullen who wants to kill her all the time for lusting for her blood and yet, in love with the 'person' itself at the same time. A little mind blogging isn't it? Oh well, this kind of frustrating complication of emotions and feelings are what we girls love most... no? XD

Okay, second honest confession... I was drooling over this guy. Robert Pattinson whom I later found out that he was also the one who played Cedric in Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire. (the one who died in the end. *correction* the handsome one who died in the end) *dies out of hyperventilation* Argh... it triggered all my fangirl senses back!! And It could be bad thing TT.

So I was talking about me getting hooked, I went to the bookstore and grabbed the 1st book today, "Twilight". In a set of 4, the other 3 were "New Moon", "Eclipse" and "Breaking Dawn". And apparently according to Wikipedia, if published, "Midnight Sun" will be a retelling of the first book, from Edward Cullen's point of view. I had the urge and rush to get all four of them! but blessing in this guise, I didn't due to my current financial constraining status TT

Anyway! That's all fangirl enthusiasm release for now... I want to get to my book indulgence a.s.a.p! XD nights y'all!

Vampire~!!*LOVE
You know what, I was rushing to watch this movie just because I saw you message in msn, hunger for a Edward Cullen as a birthday (or christmas? can't remember)present..That's allure me..Is really this vampire so charming??
Well yeah, he is really cute. But honestly, at the first glance, I'm more prefer Jasper, maybe his hair style? But once the camera is focus on him, he dissapointed me.(Sorry, Jasper..) Still, Edward is the most charming vampire :D and I thought Emmet was werewolf, with the huge body ;)
Can't wait to read the book too, hope the book is much better than the movie..I'm expecting more.......
