SDCC Contest: ‘Twilight’ Comic-Con Swag

Posted by Empress Eve | July 28th, 2008 at 2:33 am

Geeks of Doom Invade SDCC 2008

Twilight Cards As most of you Twilight fans know, Summit Entertainment had a Twilight panel at this year’s San Diego Comic Con this weekend (see SDCC 08: Summit Entertainment’s ‘Twilight’). On the Con floor, there also a Twilight booth, which had freebies, contests, and a chance to get your picture taken with cardboard cut-outs of the stars from the upcoming film.

It’s safe to say the Twilight booth was one of the more frequented ones at the Con. I mean, the whole place was a madhouse, but that booth did real well this weekend. I fought my way over to it to see what kind of swag I could get my hands on. I missed out on the t-shirts, but I did snag a small poster and trading card sample set for myself and also for my niece … and extra ones for you guys who didn’t get a chance to go to the Con.

I have five extra sets of the Twilight trading card samples. If you want a pack, then just leave a comment here telling me why you think the Twilight movie will be awesome. I’ll pick 5 winners from those who leave a comment on this entry and one person will also get one of the posters.

The poster is the previously released teaser poster of Bella and Edward (see it here).

There are four cards that come in the pack; you can see images of them here above (actual card looks much better, I’m still on the road without a scanner so I had to take a picture of the cards just so you could see what they look like). Each pack contains the same four cards. The back of the cards have character bios and quotes. These cards are just a sample from the premium trading card collection from Inkworks, which goes on sale November 2008. The full collection will include scenes from the movie, character cards, and more. In addition to the base set, the collection will contain randomly inserted bonus cards.

And I want all of you Twilight fans out there to know that I braved some crowd to grab these items and did so twice. But, it was worth it, especially since the second time I went I was given a ticket to get a shirt at the Paramount booth (don’t ask me why, but this practice is fairly common at the Con), so I walked away also with an Indiana Jones t-shirt (yes!).

Ok, now start commenting for you chance to win! I’ll pick the winners in a few days when I’m done traveling and back in the real world. I’ll update the post to let you all know. Good luck!

I base my expectations of Twilight awesomeness on a simple arithmetic equation: Catherine Hardwick (Thirteen + Lords of Dogtown) + Kristen Stewart [Into The Wild - Jumper cameo + The Messengers (only good thing in the movie)] + Stephenie Meyer = AWESOME MOVIE….Solve for X.

Thanks for the contest! I’m excellent at math if you need any help with that equation.

i think the twilight movie will be awesome beause f how they have stuck it to the book, they casting has been done really well and i think that they hav reall put thought into the film and have pickd great actors and actresses to play the characters. i also love the diretor i’ve seen a couple of her films and i think they are brilliant i epecially love thirteen very well done. i also think that the film will be awesome because of its a one of a kind book you ead lods of vampire an love books but they alwys seem to ave the same fatures in them twilight actally makes you feel the love bella has for edward and edward has for bella, this boo truly gets your heart rate up with the sweet kisses from edward to the fights with james and im sure the film will do excatl the same i cant wait for it
Julia E

The Twilight movie will be awesome because it brought me back to reading. I am a busy mom who works full time and cares for my kids full time, yet somehow I managed to read the whole series in 3 days! The movie will be great because it is a true love story and is something most people desire.
Chloe

I’m not going to use any puns to tell you how get the movie will be. The movie, like the book, will be stephenie’s vision. Because she painted the picture so clearly in our minds when we read the book, it will only be clearer when we see it on the big screen. Each of us have our own vision of how the cast of twilight looks, but I think that the actors really get the image that Stephenie Meyer was going for, so in a way the cast has a little bit of our own vision in it.

I REALLY believe the reasons why the movie will rock are the amazing cast, the super vibe they have (you can feeling even on video, man!), the good script (they are making it more realistic, adapting it to this time becasue all you know, nowdays, one day or month makes a huge difference on language, modisms, and technology), the director (we don’t worth you, Catherine! YOU REALLY ROCK! Have you ever seen how much efford is she putting on this? I have never NEVER seen someone with so much anergy traying to make things right! I just love her!), we are loyal crazy maniac fans, we will give anything for this movie, even our blood…

THAT’S WHY TWILIGHT THE MOVIE WILL BE AWESOME!!!

I think because the books have become so popular over the years, people are really interested to see the movie and how it relates to the book. The fact that you can feel what Bella, Edward and Jacob feel in the books is amazing and to see that on a movie would just be a dream come true. I think Twilight will be the number 1 movie this winter, because its something different than your average action or love romace movies. Its about vampires, werewolfs AND love in a teenage lifestyle. Thats unique and the fact that your vampires don’t have fangs and no garlic it makes Twilight so much more special. I know this movie is going to blow us away and I can’t wait to watch it and be apart of it!
Vindicator

The Twilight movie is going to be great! The cast has said it a thousand times that they did their best to try and do the book justice. They didn’t just make a film to make a film, but they put their heart and souls into this film so that it wouldn’t disappoint! The cast is great, the director is great, the editing (so far from the clips) looks great….what more do we need than that?! The Twilight movie it going to rock, and at all the award shows next year, they’re going to have to rename all of them. Like the MTV movie awards…next year we’ll call it the MTwilightV awards! So on and so forth with all the other movie award shows! I’m extremely excited about the movie and am planning on going opening night! I’m am just amazed by the cast! They are doing a fantastic job. Plus they are wicked hot!!!! OUCH I just got burned by all their hottyness!!!
Aimee

My top five reasons Twilight will succeed as a movie:

5) Have you seen the cast???? And how teenagers respond to them?

4) Catherine Hardwicke has mad skills.

3) Fans of the book are evangelical — we preach the gospel of Twilight to everyone, everywhere, all the time.

2) Stephenie Meyer’s story is timeless, ageless and scorching hot.

And my number one reason Twilight will succeed as a movie….

1) Tens of thousands of at-home moms like me will drag everyone we know to see the movie. Again. And again. And again. The hand that rocks the cradle might rule the world, but we definitely pay for movie night!!!!

p.s. I’d really like the Twilight cards because my kids are all boys and I’d like something cold as ice with which to fight off their Pokemon!

OK, let me break this down for ya.

Does Harry Potter have vampires that sparkle in the sun? No.

Yes, Pineapple Express has pot. But does it have brands of heroin? Didn’t think so.

Could you picture Keanu Reeves in The Day the Earth Stood Still asking “Do I dazzle you?” Hell no.

For that matter, I don’t think James Bond could pull that line off either.

Yes, Madagascar 2 has a lion. But is his a masochist that falls in love with a stupid lamb? Oh, no. He does not.

And Edward could kick Bruce Wayne’s ass.

So, clearly, Twilight has everything that any other movie this year doesn’t have.
Sarah

I think the Twilight movie will be awesome, because you can tell the people involved in it really care. It seems like just about all of the cast as well as Catherine are fans of the series and want to put out a great movie. Not to mention that Stephenie has been involved from the beginning. With all of the above, I find it hard to believe that this movie will disappoint us.
Janeth

I think that the reason as to why the Twilight movie will be awesome will be the production team behind it. You can tell that everyone involved in the movie just wants to do an amazing job & do the book justice, they want to please the fans as much as possible. Especially Catherine Hardwicke, she’s just one bright ball of energy when it comes to what she’s doing, she’s very enthusiastic about it all & seems to want to do the best job possible. The cast have all done their homework when it comes to their roles & have read the books so that they understand their characters better & are able to portray them in the best way possible. Not to mention the fact that a few of the casting decisions made for the movie have been spot on with their characters. This movie seems to want to be a faithful & as true to the books as possible, even more so than other books-to-movies franchises. I think all that is what will make this movie awesome.
jessica

Twilight is a movie I will go back to the movie theaters at least 2 times, probably more if I don’t go broke. I think the it is going to be out of this world. It’s different than the book slightly but the author approves of it. Stephenie Meyer is a great story-teller and her input was in the movie from the beginning. The actors including Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are amazing at what they do. The director Catherine is crazy and so into what she does for a living. Twilight will be the best movie of 2008 [not inlcluding The Dark Knight!] No other movie has sparkling vampires and a romance between the vampire and an innocent. It’s a classic that will last through the ages for sure. I can see my kids and grandkids reading it too. The mom fan base is insane. The trading cards are going to be sold out so fast, well everything with Edward Cullen’s face on it is going to be jackpot. There is no way that critics will hate this movie, Edward Cullen will dazzle them =]
kristina

The movie will be awesome because it’s based on a great book. Everyone who worked on the film, especially Catherine, are a fan of the book and every single fan what’s it to be as close to the book as possible. They also know the fans will die if it turns out poorly. Also, there are an amazing group of older and younger actors who will make any movie great, especially this one. I know it will be great and that they won’t disappoint all of their fans out there.
Tenni

The book is awesome and they have done so well to stay true to the story for the movie. All the actors/actresses are awesome and can totally feel the character that they are playing. No doubt about it, the movie will be amazing!
ILUVEDWARD

WHAT THE CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believe there is no NEED to explain why it will be awesome!!!!!!!
I mean, just LOOK at the POSTER!!!!!!!!!
Just WATCH the freaking TRAILERS!!!!!!!!!
You don’t need a crazy, insane fan to tell you how good the Twilight movie WILL be!!!!!!
Because it WILL be good!!!!!!!!!!!
My best friend who HATES the Twilight books, just because I talk about them too much, saw the trailer and was like “WOAH!!!!! That looks freaking good!!!!!!”
I also agree with Amy! Ha ha, it makes me laugh, and she is TOTALLY right!!!
But I mean really! To KNOW how good Twilight WILL be, you just need to look at Kristen Stuart! I mean, just LOOK at her!!!! She is like the perfect Bella! Just look at Robert Pattinson! I know he sure dazzles me!
I MEAN WHAT THE HECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE TWILIGHT!!!!!!
THE MOVIE WILL BE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING!!!!!!
YAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

I think the Twilight movie will be awesome, because it has such an amazing cast. Everyone seems to have put in such an awful amount of work to play their characters as the fans know them, and everyone – cast and crew – is so dedicated to giving us the movie we all want. I think we’re all so, so lucky to have Catherine Hardwicke directing it; she just seems to really get the book, and she’ll translate it so well to screen – the raw emotion and the drama. And visually, it’s just going to look great. And I love Hardwicke especially for having the original script re-written so it was more like the book. Great decision. The film is just going to be amazing, because no-one is taking this film lightly.
Julia

Reasons why the Twilight movie will be great: ( No particular order)

1. Stephenie Meyer is a fantastic writer, and if they stuck to the book, which they did pretty well from what we’ve seen with the trailers and all, then it will be just as “dazzling” as the book.

2. In the ballet studio scene, when Edward looks at Bella to make sure she’s all right, you can feel the connection between them, Kristen and Rob have great chemistry together.

3. It covers so many different genres: Romance, action, adventure; it will appeal to so many different audiences.

4. The cast and crew have said so many times about how they are all giving their best in the movie. They all seem to care so much about it.

5. Robert Pattinson actually wrote journals from Edward’s POV to help him get into the role. Also, he wrote Bella’s Lullaby, which will make the movie tie even more into the books.

All of theis put together? One heart-stopping, hyper-ventalation causing, awesome movie!
Brittany

Twilight is going to be amazing. It has been brought to life from the beloved book by Stephenie Meyer. It is the most compelling story that I have ever read in my entire life. I’ve never felt more connected to a story and its’ characters. These characters are so real and so easy to relate to. It’s so easy to fall in love with all of them. I can’t imagine any other actors/actresses playing the roles of all the Twilight character…they have made the characters come to life. They have put their whole selves into the roles and have done an outstanding job. The director, who is a Twilight fan herself, stayed true to the book because she wanted it to be good. Everyone involved in this project believed in it and wanted to please the fans. I don’t think anyone is going to be disappointed. When I watch this movie for the first time…I know I will feel the same as when I read the book…I will feel everything the characters feel…and I know this movie will be incredible. Because the book already was.
Rachelle

The Twilight movie will be so amazingly awesome beause it is something that millions of fans hold dear to their hearts and can escape to when times are rough or not looking good to a place filled with unconditional love and devotion, fantasy, and true friendship. Readers from all ages and walks of life read Twilight to escape reality and enter a world of an impossibly imperfect perfect love. And the producers and entire cast realize what Twilight means to its millions of fans and do not want to disappoint them! Finally, we will get to see with our eyes what only our brains have been able to imagine! Yes, some will unavoidably be disappointed with it because its not exactly what they imagined or doesn’t follow the book exactly; but at least we have the chance to see it. How extrordinary that our favorite books are being made into a motion picture series! We are lucky to have the experience! The Twilight movie will be amazing no matter what because its our greatest fantasy come true… to see Edward and Bella together and witness their love for one another with a different set of senses and emotions! There is no doubt in my mind that this film is going to be awesome and bring in a new batch of rabid readers to the Twilight series and the following movies will be as equally awesome after that!
Amber

I think the Tilight movie will be awesome because almost every teenager on earth has read the books and are huge fans, like myself. Also because now we can picture and Bella and Edward(in his case we can dream about him) where before it was impossible.
I love the fact that Summit Entertainment steped in so Stephenie’s book could come to life without those night vision gogles. Catherine Hardwicke did a fabulous job capturing Twilight to make what we are all looking forward to. The cast is great, kristen Stewart is the perfect Bella and I could not dream of a better Edward. Rob Pattinson took his role seriously and together they will make a wonderful movie. Stephenie Meyer has done a great job with the books and I hope there is more to come. Everyone says that Twilight is the new Harry Potter, I don’t know about you but I could not read them. Harry Potter just didn’t hold my attention like the relationship that Bella and Edward have, it’s amzing how they connect. And this movie will help show that

Sorry I spelle dTwilight Wrong in the 1st sentence
Taylor

The Twilight Movie is going to be amazing, because we all get to see the book that fascinated us so much come to life. We won’t have to imagine anymore, but can actually see the book played out right in front of us. The film will capture all of the key points that Stephanie Meyer was trying to show us and now we can all actually see the book that we couldn’t put down on the big screen. I can’t wait to see how all of the actors relate to each other and if they were how i imagined them while reading. The movie Twilight is going to be insanely awesome!

Hi there!

I believe that the Twilight movie will be awesome for several reasons. I do not believe that it is possible to just say one reason as to why it would be great. First off, just the story is quite remarkable. Look at what Stephenie Meyer wrote. In Twilight, she wrote a classic and timeless love story like one of the classics many of us have all read and fell in love with. I think it is true what Stephanie once said in an interview, “The first love is the one that sticks with you…” This is true, for all of us as human beings, whether, like myself, a 19 year old girl or a twilight mom, that first love is the one that really sticks with you. That first love and that first heartbreak is the one that really sticks with us, and Stephenie captured that perfectly in Twilight. Now, we get to see that story we all love actually come to life. It is no longer something that is in our imagination, it is something that has been brought to a complete and realistic form (even with the gorgeous vampires) Eventhough we have not seen too much footage from the movie, except for small clips and the released teasers, they seem to have captured that goal of love and forbidden romance that made each of fall in love with Twilight in the first place. That is the number one reason why the Twilight movie will be awesome. Next, the cast and the production crew. I am a big movie freak, and never have a I seen a director and a cast speak with such praise and….I can’t even think of the word. You can tell when the cast memebers…even if they’re nervous…they want to make a a good movie. They may not have known much or nothing about the book before they were cast, but they read the book and fell in love with it just as we all did. And you can tell that the actors and the productiin crew wants to make a great movie that we all love. The cast is DEDICATED. Dedication is something that is lacking in the world today, but the Twilight cast is dedicated. You can’t have an “AWESOME” movie with out the “AWESOME” cast. And Twilight has that. Even the “smaller” roles were cast perfectly, keeping in mind with what Stephenie Meyer wrote in Twilight. Then, the fanbase for Twilight is also what will make the movie awesome. WIthout the support from fans of the books, this movie would go nowhere. In fact, no movie would. So, these are the reasons Twilight will be an awesome movie :-)
Stephanie

I don’t think AWESOME is the right word to describe what the film will be. From all the on set interviews and footage from Comic Con, this film is obviously a labor of love to all those involved. Catherine, Robert, Kristen, and all the other cast and crew appear to know just how beloved not only the story is, but how much these characters mean to us Twilighters. Their work and commitment to promoting the movie (even after some more than enthusiastic outings with fans) shows how much they respect not only Stephenie Meyer’s work, but the devotion we fans have to it. With any adaptation there are sure to be some things cut, others out of place, and maybe even some down right questionable things, but in the end it is about preserving the essence of the story and from what I’ve seen and heard, there is no doubting their hearts are in the right place. So, awesome? Maybe. An extraordinary heart warming feat? Most definitely!
Tracy Bock

I think Twilight will be great because from what we have seen they seemed to have really captured the essence of what Twilight is. We all know this could have went horrible wrong, but I think they’ve done an amazing job. I can’t wait to see it. K. Stewart and Rob just seem to have completely immersed themselves in their characters…and really become them. They haven’t been put off by any fan comments that might not have been so nice. It should be great!
Stephanie

I believe that this movie will be amazing because it stems off of the amazing Twilight book by the yet even more amazing Stephenie Meyer. When people read Twilight, they all had seperate ideas of Edward, Bella, Jasper, Charlie, Rosalie, Alice, Jacob, and everyone else in the book. Now the movie brings together the idea of the book and creates a single image of Edward, Bella, ect. This movie will unite all Twilighters: young and old, guys and girls, and everyone around the world! When casting for the movie, many people were troubled by the choice of cast—yet now, people have come to know Robert Pattinson as THE Edward Cullen. Of course, no one could ever be as perfect as Edward in the book, but Robert comes pretty darn close. This kickass movie will unite all Twilighters and will be sold out for weeks.

I think the Twilight movie will be awesome because the cast is great and so far all the clips i’ve seen of the movie are great and really hits you. The Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer is like INSANE! The good insane. I’m positive the movie will great! Theres a good cast, good director, good story. Everything is awesome! I love Twilight!!! :)
Tiff

Hi Empress Eve,

For a while, I have been wavering in between whether this movie would meet up with my expectations. The main reason why i think that this film will be “awesome”, is simply because of the leading actress that is Kristen Stewart. Personally, I think her performance will hold together the film, which of course it should, her being the main character. From her past works, Into the Wild, Cake Eaters, Land of Women, she has shown amazing range of emotions and depth, which is truly needed Twilight’s Bella. Also from what has been heard in plenty of interviews, is the dynamic and fiery chemistry between Stewart and Pattinson, so as long as they bring the heat and passion, there is nothing to worry about.

On a side note, its been a while since so many girls, young and old, will been able to swoon and simply melt in their seats. Twilight is going to be awesome.

Thanks btw for fighting your way to the summit booth, I would imagine it was absolutely nuts.
Arlette

I think the twilight movie is going to be awesome because the cast and crew worked really hard to make the story come alive and make the best movie they could while trying to stay true to the book.
Sara Robinson

The Twilight movie is going to be the best movie ever because it lets girls dream and think beyond the world of which they live in. Your heart could be melted and at the same time your on the edge of your seat to see what will happen next. Even if you have already read the book and know what’s going to happen you still feel your heart beating and you still jump. It encourages teens to kind of expand their mind and believe, and thats what why i love it so much. You see the movie and you think “Vampires and werewolves? Seriously, I’m not some dork who enjoys fantasies and things beyond the human body,” but it’s nothing like that. You can see the movie and not have read the book and it would still be the greatest movie in the world. You still feel the magic and the chemistry between all the characters. The tension is real and in your head, anything can happen. I love the books and I’m counting down the days to the movie. I will probably see the movie 5 million times at the theaters when it comes out. Hahh :)
Haley

ever since the first harry potter came out, i thought i would never find a book that could hold my interest until the last chapter. that is, until i read Twilight… the words painted such a vivid picture in head, the characters, became real. the life Bella wanted and yearned for became the plot for all my dreams. without sounding too cheesy, Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse…they became the one thing i couldn’t put down, couldn’t quit talking about, my heart broke when Bella’s did, my teeth clenched when Edwards did, my heart raced, these books are like individual lives. there aren’t many words that could do praise of them any justice. from my excitement of the books, i can only imagine that the movie will be just as breathtaking and heart wrenching and mind blowing as i imagine it. Rob and Kristen are very talented and i am sure they will bring the twilighter’s favorite characters plenty of justice. i am so thrilled to know that my favorite book is becoming a worldwide feature film. to say i am excited, is truly an understatement…i get butterflies in my stomach everytime i see anything having to do with the movie. it’s going to be an experience of a lifetime.
alejandra

hey! i;ve got a couple of posters i picked from the comic con
Talena

The characters are written with such depth and feeling it’s almost like they already live and breathe – you feel their hurt, frustration and love emanating off the page. If the movie can capture this, how can it not be truly moving?
For me it isn’t just the characters that will make this movie great, it’s the underlying themes of choice, loyalty, love and acceptance – no matter who or what you are.

This story isn’t just for young adults such as myself, I read this story to a young disabled friend, who has doubts of ever being accepted and loved. If you could see how the text alone empowered her with confidence, hope and joy – and more importantly, the contentment she found within herself. Imagine how happy and wonderful she, and others who feel the same way, will feel when they get to see the story and characters they have come to relate to and love on the big sreen? For this reason I believe the literary adaption of Twilight will not only be awesome, but it will open the hearts and eyes of many a generation to come, whether they have read the book or not.
Aisling

Twilight is a classic. It’s as simple as that, and even though melodramatic as it seems it has changed my life. I truly believe that it has made me hopeful that there is someone out there for all of us, in whatever shape and form, through Bella who is seen as an outsider in the beginning as she says herself she doesn’t relate well to people. Obvioulsy there is not a perfect vampire out there for us as in Bella’s story but there is hope that there is someone. As well as that Twilght for me acts as an escapism. Pick up the book and I can escape to another world-Edward and Bella’s world-and forget about the drama of by own life. This film will truly be great because the realism will hit every fan as hard. To see this laid out right in front of your eyes will be something else altogther.
brooke

Well the movie Twilight is being produced by Catherine Hardwicke who is a director, writer, producer, art director, and many more. She has some of the greatest movies ever made such as Thirteen, Mad City, The Nativity Story, and like i said before many more. There is also the fact that Twilight is one of the greatest selling books since well Harry Potter. And its a very interesting book that involves your typical teenaged girl who falls in love with this amazing boy who is acatually a vampire. And the whole time you read the book you imagine being there, watching this happen, and feeling the characters going through all thier difficult situcations. Children, teenagers, adults, and the elderly have fallin in love with Stephenie Meyers writings since day one when the first Twilight novel was released. So in conculsion to this with such a great book to set the stage for a movie is very difficult to fill. But with Catherine Hardwicke and Stephenie Meyer watching the book be made into reality im sure this movie will exceed our expectations and be “awesome”. I know i can not wait till it comes out because like many people i am a twilighter and im proud of it.

There has got to be about a gazillion reasons why this movie is going to be AHMAZING. But I’m just gonna sum it up: it’s Twilight & I think the cast that they picked are goin to do an amazing job, even though they may not be exactly how we pictured them, i think they will still pull it off and that it will be one of the greatest movies of all time. Cartherine Hardwicke is a great director and I love her work & since Stephenie Meyer herself oversaw the whole movie-making process, I think that it will make the movie even better than if Hardwicke had just done it on her own. Can’t wait for december 12 & good luck to everyone in the contest, there are probably a million people who deserve the cards, and I hope those who deserve them most will receive them.
Bernie

I think that Twilight will be great because:
The actors and actresses are great and they did lots of work trying to get into their characters. Rob and Kristen both did a great job from what i have seen and they have awesome chemistry. Also i think the movie will be great because most people like lots of different genres and Twilight is action, romance, sci-fi, sapience, and more.I think Twilight will be a great movie because all of the crew and cast want this to be an awesome movie and are trying their hardest to make it that way. The movie has a great director, Catherine Hardwicke. She is great for this movie because she loves the story also and she connects with the cast and she sort of acts like us (twilighters). This story is not just for teenagers but for many differnet age groups so when the movie comes out i think that it will be for lots of different age groups. And also it is not just for girls but guys like it too.
i absolutely love this book and i hope once the movie comes out that people will be interested in reading the books. The books are a huge part of my life! it’s funny, my mom says that i have a one track mind, like a guy. But i don’t think about just girls, all i think about is the Twilight series.Stephenie Meyer has put out these AMAZING books and i think that the movie will do justice for the first one.

twilight is going to be awesome. i just know it for several reasons. first of all, the twilight saga books have captured our hearts from the very beginning. we have lived, breathed, and dreamed about them. AND of course, catherine is a fan herself so why would she want to dissappoint us? 2nd, THE cast, WOW. the description matches each and every one of them so well its as if my imagination is haunting me on the screen and pictures.. if you understand what i mean. lol. BUT, the movie DOES have some disadvantages also…
choking, hyperventilation, asthma attacks, and sweating excessively are the major cautions while watching twilight due to well.. ROBERT PATTINSON. (: AH. well, thats why always bring a paper bag.. ahahah

I think it’s absolutely impossible to list all the reasons why Twilight should be amazing. But I’m going to give it a shot.

1. The book & the series itself is phenomenal. Everyone’s going to want to know if the movie will live up to the legend that Stephenie Meyer has created.

2. It took me a while to pick up Twilight after my sister & friend recommended them to me. But once I did, I immediately felt like I was Bella, and I think every teenage girl can relate to that. Edward is what every girl wants. The kind of love that Bella & Edward share is something that rivals the most famous love stories of all time. Bringing the book to the silver screen makes it so much more accessible to everyone, and they can still experience that love.

3. The cast is a relatively unknown group. They haven’t really been in any really big movies or played really big parts. I feel as if that’s the way it should be. I can’t think of any famous stars that would fit any of the characters. That is definitely one thing that will make the movie amazing.

4. The story line! Everyone makes up a movie in their head while reading the book, but now we’ll get to see more or less what Stephenie Meyer had in her head while she was creating and writing the series.

5. It’s telling of a story that anyone would give the world to be part of. For the 100-some minutes we’re sitting there in the dark of the movie theatre, we are right there with Bella & Edward. We feel their connection & love, it’s right there & so very real. It gives people hope that there true love & soul mates really exist. Even if you do have to wait, you can see that it’s well worth the wait.

6. The story is relatable, heartwarming, encouraging, endearing & a beautiful tale about two people in love; the hardships & pains they go through just to be together, because they know now that they can’t live without the other, not that they’ve found each other, how strong & real their love is, but the same time how out of this world it is.

I can gurantee that I will be at the 12:01am showing on December 12th. I will be at a release party for BD. I’m just your average American girl/young woman. But when I’m reading a Twilight book, I feel like I could be like Bella. An ordinary girl who turns out to be extrodinary.

I believe that “Twilight” will be an awesome movie because Stephenie waited for the right script (as if we could eliminate the Cullens from the story?? NOT), the right director and they all chose the most incredible cast possible!

Robert Pattinson, in the footage we’ve already seen, **IS** Edward Cullen. The facial expressions that he makes are just incredible. I shiver when I see a new scene with him in it – he’s that good!

Kristin Stewart will be an incredible Bella Swan. She has that down to earth quality to her, and she conveys so much emotion in her eyes.

The rest of the cast is just unbelievable — so close to what i pictured in my mind.

OH __ and can I say that another reason the movie will be awesome is that ILM is going to be handling the “sparkling” effect in the meadow? !!! THAT is totally awesome — ILM are the Gods of the special effects world – in my humble opinion!

I’m glad you had such a great time at Comic-Con & were able to pick up enough goodies for yourself, your niece, and those of us who couldn’t be there — that is VERY COOL of you!

Counting the days till Twilight opens in theaters (( 134 )) ….

Yours — IsabellaCullen ;)

I think that the Twilight movie will be awesome because when appeared the book for sale, many of us interested in designing the cover, and more than anything the synopsis so interesting and so short that, we (fans) buy the book…is fantastic !!… what book draws you in this way?… Twilight!!
Of course the people recommended it, and so there are more fans.
Now Twilight, that will be premiere in December, we (fans) we will see the film, because if a book convinces us … because we wouldn’t convince with a film?, and as many say …. with the actors hottest !! and the actors are so similiar to the characters (really, when I learned which actors would be the characters…I screamed: Really??!! is perfect!!)… I think that also the film will bring a lot of audience wanting to see one of their favorite actors.
Also, the trailers and interviews with those people who give life to the characters leave us most impacted because everybody see, that Twilight is a film that will be of quality excelent.
That are what I think.

Thanks for reading ^.^

Why I think the Twilight movie will be awesome? Well, because Stephenie Meyer said so! She is the creator of the almighty Twilight saga, and I think she would know if the movie will turn out good or bad more than the rest of us. So, to know that she approves of everything, makes me feel comforted and know that the movie will truly be awesome. Plus, with hot actors such as Robert Pattinson, Kellan Lutz, and Cam Gigandet, you know it’ll be good. But, really, when I look at the scene from Penelope, the trailer, and all of the other scenes I’ve seen online, and it makes me smile, knowing that Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson have such great chemistry together, I know the movie’ll be great. They are so into their characters it makes me feel like Edward, Bella, and the rest are actually real. That’s when you know you have an awesome movie.

The Twilight movie will be totally awesome because…

1) It’s really rare to have a vampire movie with such intense moments like the action and of course, the romance. Hahaha.

2) Most of the stuffs are really detailed such as the different eye colors, pale skin, their hair, dressing etc etc.

3) If the books are such a hit, why not the movie? Even thousands people have come to know about the movie even though it’s still months away.

4) WHAT MOVIE WOULD NOT BE AWESOME WITH ROBERT PATTINSON IN IT. :D

I think Twilight will be a great movie because a lot of people can compare something in their life to this book. Many girls seem to find hope of sometime finding `that guy.´ Since Twilight is such a great book, many people who love the Twilight books, will love the movie! Also, the books are so detailed. Stephenie detailes the eyes, hair, clothes, shiny skin, and their feelings. Everytime I read them I feel like I’m Bella. Plus, I think the cast is great! Kristen, Robert, Kellan, Taylor, and all the rest! I can almost guarantee that this will be everyone’s favorite movie when they see it! It will also be a great movie because, I’m not sre if other people do this too but, everytime I’m bored or upset, I pick up my copy of Twilight, New Moon, or Eclipse and it cheers me up. And I know, that I will go to the Twilight movie at least 2 times! Well that pretty much wraps it up! 12.12.08! Can’t wait!

OMG! (if I must speak/text from the mouth of my daughters)Is there anything else going on the world besides this movie?
Other than sleeping and eating, my daughters (and recently my wife- mother in law- nieces etc) have become rabid fans! So nonetheless, we will be investing BIG BUCKS at this premier!

THis is going to be the best movie ever! I just love how the whole prospect of the forbiden love doesn’t even matter to Edward and Bella. Man, even their names sound wondeful togehter. They way Stephenie describes them, how they take everything so slowly, and actually cherish their time together, not making out on the couch 24/7. They actually love each other and want to do things right, well as right as they can with him being a vampire and all. How they go through everything and still manage to stay sane amazes me. Then New Moon, dear god that book almost killed me. It’s always painful to read it, and to see how Edward was if hopefully Stephenie continues his perspecive. Wow, that would be amazing. I am personally all for Team Edward. I even got over my High School Musical obsession and moved on to Twilight. There is no couple better then Edward and Bella. The cast is and will be wonderful. =D
Teodora

One more thing, I thought James was suppose to be a normal looking guy. Man, Cam wasn’t a good choice for that. *swoons* All the guys weee.

I think the Twilight movie will be great because of the actors in it and the book Twilight is a kick ass book anyhow. Also I think that the movie will be great since it will reflect on what we thought in our minds about what was happening and what the scenery is like in the movie so we can compare what we thought when we were reading to the movie and seeing the actual setting. I also think the movie will be great because Twilight rocks overall
