Chelsea’s Thoughts and Such

I heard about the Twilight craze a few months ago and read some chapters of the various books online.  Though intrigued by the Cullen family and their various quirks, I honestly didn’t think the writing in the pieces I read was anything to write home about and the obsession between Bella and Edward for each other is downright disfunctional.  Despite all of this, I decided to go see the movie.

It was absolutely terrible.  Though the actors were pretty ((particularly Robert Pattinson…)), the acting was subpar, the script was contrived and the special effects were trite.  The film is cheesy in the worst ways possible.

I loved every minute of it.  I don’t even know why.  I even laughed at parts that were supposed to be dead serious, and yet I still liked the characters, was still drawn into the story.  I kinda want to go see it again.

Please note: this does not mean I’ll be touching the books, even with a thirty-nine-and-a-half-foot pole.  But, the movie is something I like…in spite of it’s ridiculousness.  Actually, maybe it’s because it’s so ridiculous.  I don’t know.  Regardless, I am a fan of the movie.  Just don’t go around telling people that.
