Thanks to Eric Snider, I don’t need to read the books now. Excerpt:
EDWARD: Anyhoo, these are the vampire friends I live with, the Cullens. They’ve been very eager to eat you.
BELLA: You mean meet me?
EDWARD: Meet you. What did I say?
ALICE: I’m Alice! I can see the future, but only when it’s useful to the plot. For example, right now: Look out for those mean vampires barging in from the forest!
MEAN VAMPIRE JAMES: Fe-Fi-Fo-Fum! I smell the blood of a human!
EDWARD: Stay away from her! Bella, you’d better go. I don’t want you to have to see me fight this guy for your honor, our muscles straining as we grapple, the air thick with testosterone and the sounds of our throaty snarling.
BELLA: Right! I wouldn’t want to see that! Especially not if your shirts got torn off!

Eric’s film treatment is a treat, but cleolinda really goes the extra mile with her recaps. Here’s her Twilight in Fifteen Minutes.

Oh, my! Those last few lines just make me a wee bit flustered.

oh! I love it! My cousin just sent me the sndtrk today, which I love, and so I read it while listening. He’s right on! I love the speculation that Edward’s gay :-p and for all the lack of sex, there’s an awful lot of sex…

After having read all the books (I can’t believe I manged to), I can safely say I won’t be seeing the movies.

I am thankful that, having now finally seen it, I will never have to watch Twilight again. Unfortunately, I’ll watch the second movie when it comes out and hate myself afterward. “Twilight: it’s like anonymous sex. You’re sorta glad you did it, but it still makes you feel dirty.”
My husband (poor bastard), my cousin’s friend, and I were giggling and guffawing thru the whole thing. Cousin: not amused. At least someone enjoys it…

lol! cyndi64, if I could make money pretending to write, I totally would. I don’t think that making money has ever been the determiner of art, however…
