Ok, my husband and I just went and saw the movie last night. He was actually dragging his feet a little. He loves vampire movies and he had heard from some guys he works with that the movie was lame. Well, he was more impressed then expected. He can appreciate the different takes on vampire stories.

I had started the first book awhile ago but got about a quarter of the way in and stopped reading it. I was afraid to keep reading and see the movie and then be disappointed. So now that I've seen the movie I will start back to reading it.
With all that said I wanted to comment about it without giving too much away....
Edward grew on me by the end of the movie. I could see how Bella would feel protected and safe. I loved how he moved around so quickly. I liked his family, how they stick together and protect each other.

From what I had read in the book, I had pictured Bella differently. I'm hoping she grows on me as I read more of the series. Alice was super cute, loved her skin and hairstyle. And Emmett was strong and hot!

I loved how it was filmed in and around my home state of Oregon. When we were watching the movie we thought for sure the brick high school was a high school near my home town but they look very similiar and it was not the same one.

Looking forward to reading more of the series. I heard the next movie starts production March 2009.
