Even Better than Twilight

Rating: 9/10 (20 November 2009)

I loved Twilight.But I thought that New Moon was way better. If you consider the books separate from the movies then it isn't as bad. I thought though with New Moon that they hit every major point from the book. (At least from what I could remember.) The only thing I didn't relate to was how close Jacob and Bella go towards the end.
I figured when I logged on this website that I would hear people complaining about Chris Weitz. I thought he did a great job of semi-capturing the book. He did a decent job with The Golden Compass and I think he did even better here.
I think people take book to movie translation way to seriously. It's like the Harry Potter fans freaking out that they missed something. When you take an over 500 page book and try to cram it into a two hour movie, things are going to be missed.
I think in this case though Chris Weitz hit the nail on the head. I think he deserves way more credit than Katherine does.
