The Twilight Saga: New Moon review

Well, the latest installment of the Twilight series is breaking box office records all over the place. I contributed to that as I saw it with a packed house on Saturday afternoon. How could I resist, after having so much fun at the first one last year? It was an interesting experience, as my audience had a maniacal cackler who almost provided more entertainment than the movie itself.

Before I get to my detailed review (I am educated in film so expect serious criticism), I want to mention the movie's soundtrack. I think a lot of indie rock fans were up in arms over some of the bands on there. I don't know, I don't put much stock in the whole "selling out" concept, and I've been listening to it and there really are a lot of great tracks. Thom Yorke, BRMC, Grizzly Bear, Editors.... um, uh... oh geez.

Keyboard Cat? Waitaminute... my review has been hi-jacked! I guess we're doing this again...

New Moon!

    You don't have a sense of humor, do you? Whether you love or hate the Twilight series, those LOLcats have the review spot on. Thanks for the laughs, it was brilliant!!

    I can tell you are a fan. Much like the author, you cannot write worth a darn. Please go back to school and learn to write simple sentences.

    And as for writing something as "good" as New Moon? I have written something even better.

    This comic was brillant. It sums up the stupidity of Twilight perfectly.
