its 2009 and everyone is still going gaga over edward cullen. i have nothing against him nor the twilight saga, i personally think he's totally hot but im definitely not biting the edward craze. if i were to describe the movie, the only word that i can think of is 'cute', its not the greatest movie of the year but its one of those 'kilig' movies you must see. i wasnt such a fan but curiosity always gets me, and being a book-slut that i am, i suppose deep down inside, ive been summoning an actual copy of the book. so, when i finally found a copy through my 15 yr old niece, i started reading it. stephanie meyer is a real story teller, no doubt about that, you can perfectly imagine even just the smallest detail base on her descriptions . but it will probably take awhile for me to finish the book since a lot of it is a drag. its not just the kind of book that you can never put down but i can totally see why it was such a hit and why it was such a hit with a particular age group.
maybe if im 15 years old i would have joined this edward fan club. not that im being an uptight, wrinkled old prune who is incapable of romance. but edward is exactly the unreachable type of guy, he's everybody's dream and he's just so physically perfect and too sparkly. yet his character was so abusive, controlling and obsessive. i dont find it romantic how he stalks bella and when he drags her to his car by force. and the attraction of bella according to her descriptions are more on his physical assets and the feeling she gets from being with him than his personality. its stupid, childish and boring. i find edward's mysteriousness and evasiveness annoying, not appealing. take away his supermodel looks, and he's really not all that. girls who love him are those who fantasize about being loved by beautiful man. and who doesnt want to be loved by beautiful man? but it gets old when their personality cant keep up with their looks. ive fallen in love with many story book characters and edward is not one of them. its a story meant for 15 year olds. but that being said, i cant say i didnt enjoy it.
