Ok, the movie is now out, and most people will have seen it by now, (and if you look in the special new issue of Time Out you will see a pic of me as a twilighter!) but what is happening to the series- its being marketed like mad!!! i mean Jacob black dolls?? isnt that taking it a tiny bit too far?
Not only is the series being transformed into a publicity stunt, its losing its originality. No offence, but when i go to the cinema, I do not want to come across 300 screaming twilight tweens who know absolutely nothing about the books, but have just jumped on the bandwagon, because they think the actors and actresses are, and I quote 'sooooo buffff' and 'fit as hell'.
And here is the best part...
Meyer's other novel, The Host, a sci-fi thriller, meant for 'young adults' is also being turned into a movie!!
Lets hope it maintains its originality without being associated with meyer's other novels, because, unlike the twilight saga, the concept is totally different (i.e. no human-loves-vampire relationship complex)
