New Moon (but same old story)

I'm still punishing myself for watching this movie! :-P I know my movie pass allows me to watch any movie at any time... but there should be some warnings at the ticket office, like the ones you already know: you can't use your mobile or camera during the movie, no animals allowed, movie not suitable for kids, you can't take off your shoes, and stuff like that :-P

This time, there should be a big red alert sign, with a flashing light and sound, like when there's an emergency on a nuclear power plant: "Alert! Alert! This movie is too girlish for you to watch!"

I watched "New Moon" for the same reason I watched the first Harry Potter movie: it was based on a series of books everyone was talking about. Potter books were supposed to be for kids and the movies were/are catchy, but there's still a child touch that can please almost everyone.
"New Moon" is a little bit different because it has written "girls only" in almost every scene and dialogue line. I think it surpasses "Sex and The City" movie (yes, I say think because I didn't watch this one! eheheh).

Vampires are pale on the face only (the rest of the body no - a movie goof) and werewolfs... well, they are shirtless all the time.

But I had some fun with this movie. How? Well, it was funny to watch the audience (read: girls) reaction everytime characters held hands, almost kissed... it was general screaming! :-P
The very best was the movie finale, not because it ended, but because the climax was so... so... cheap soap opera! :-P

Well... I have to watch a movie to compensate this one. I'm waiting for "Paranormal Activity" to feel the audience screaming for real! ;-)

Man, you can't miss "Sex and the City"! I've seen it and although I can't understand women better, at least I know what to expect not to be surprised :-)

You should watch the series and then the movie for the great finale, it's real entertainment ;)

That should teach you not to go to a teen flick!
This kind of so called "movies" only please teenagers and are a total lack of respect for the whole industry. Still, these movies are the ones that are sold out even before their premiere and I guess that's what the producers need...
Helps out if you need to throw up to keep your bulimic slim figure or if you are constipated...........
