The long awaited New Moon

Yeah...I am a shameless Twilling fanatic. Totally loved all the Twilight saga books and I have read, reread and reread each novel thousands of times. If there is an exam on Twilight, I would have been one of the thousand fanatic fans who will happily sit for the test.

Yesterday, we were lucky to get free tickets for the premier screening of the much awaited sequel, New Moon. Gosh! It was just the excitement needed for vampire love story fanatics and yours truly is one of them. And so...as the movie began....we began to see the story from the pages that we have so lovingly read thousands of time came to life. To see Edward Cullen and Bella on screen again....oooohhhhhh sooo romantic......I can't help but swoon....

To add my five cents worth of movie review, I would say that in the popularity race between Edward Cullen and Jacob Black...if you did not watch the first Twilight movie, then you would like Jacob more than Edward. However, if you have seen and read the first movie, then you would still love Edwards, though I have to admit that Jacob is quite endearing in the persistent, sure of himself, knows what he wants kind of way. And of course, that superbly buffed, hunky dory body of his....hhmmmm....

But there is the subtleties of being loved and pursued by an aggressive, hot-blooded, broad-shouldered with a superbly sexy body 17 year old compared to being loved by a matured, 104 years old octogenarian who still looks like a 19 years old. You don't love him on first sight but he grows on you. Yes...indeed he does ....even though he is just a pale and pasty looking bloke (to quote Stefanie's description of him).

The ending was quite disappointing. But never mind, they have not deviated too much from the original storyline. For that, we, the loyal legion of Twilight fans is greatly grateful and can sleep well that night. After all, we all know what's gonna happen next....

Ms Wannabee still yearns to be worshipped and loved by an Edward Cullens or Jacob Black.......(sigh)........
