Question: Twilighters and non-Twilighters: In your opinion, will the movie be better than the book!?
Or does "the book will always be better than the movie" rule apply to Twilight, too!?

I just watched the Rome Film Festival's 8 minutes preview of the movie, and it was kind of entertaining!. It was different from the book!.

What are your thoughts!? And Twilight haters: will you watch the movie in theaters!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I have to agree!. When I first saw the Twilight trailer, I couldn't even recognize it as Twilight until Bella said something along the lines of this, "You're a vampire, aren't you!?"

I may not even watch it in theaters!. I may wait until it comes out on Show Time, unless my boyfriend wants to watch it too!. Him and I both dislike the book, but we can agree that we don't have to suffer through bad writing when watching the movie, or possibly stilted dialogue, because whoever did the character's lines was anyone but Meyer!.

I can't really say anything until i watch the movie i really hope it lives up to all the expectations and doesn't dissapoint us fans!.

Twilight is the first series i read so i'll always love the books, there's no doubt about that

I don't really know if the movie will top "my twilight" the one that played in my head with my edward (not rob pattinson) my bella (myself lol) and my whole vision for it

Hopefully people won't act like they did when Breaking Dawn was released, and i hope people won't start hating!. I'll always love twilight and thats a fact!Www@QuestionHome@Com

first rule of book to movie translations: the movie is NEVER better than the book!. ive never seen one that was!.

no i wont be seeing twilight in the movies!. or on dvd!. or on hbo!.!.!.!.
sorry but a bunch of dorky teen emo vampires in a soap opera doesnt interest me at all!. plus ive seen the trailer for it and it looks like a really terribly MADE movie!. the trailer just was bad so no!.!.!.!.!.pass on twilight!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

LOVE the books and can't wait for the movie!!!
I don't plan to compare the two!. I don't have the same expectations of the movie since it is a different medium entirely!.
I plan to enjoy them each for what they are and not get too caught up in how exactly the book was followed, etc!.

I'm not a Twilight 'hater', but I didn't enjoy the book either!. I sincerely doubt I'll pay to see the movie in the theater, but I'll probably watch it on video!. I really hope the movie is better than the book!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

im sure the movie will be good!. but books are always better than the movie!. you feel more connected to the characters i think!. books tell thoughts of people and feelings of people!. describes so much more than a movie can give!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

i think the movie will be great!. the trailers are very encouraging = )

though i doubt if the movie will be as good as the book but that is my opinion =)Www@QuestionHome@Com

That rule definitely applies to Twilight!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I just learned about twilight on yahoo answers! It does not sound like my kind of book though i am into books like perfume!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Let's hope so I am reading the book right now and am totally bored!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

the movie will be a HUGE success!. the trailers are hell good!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

It can't possibly be worse than the book, can it!? That would mean chimpanzees made it!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm pretty sure the movie is going to be amazing but I doubt it will be better then the book!. 20 more days!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

ugh!.!. the movie looks so dumb!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Idk!. My twilight phase is over!. I think it will be good but fairly different!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
