Blabberthoughts

There are loads of book based movies one can find these days. Most of these movies definitely hit box office. Obviously, the book fanatics go gaga over those, expecting a really great movie, more beautiful than the scenes they conjure up in their minds while reading the novel. I am a book lover. I love reading novels. It brings me happiness and completes my day. Oh yes, it does. I'm all for magic, dreams, destiny and love. Love love love.

And so the film is released. After watching, what do we, fans feel??? Disappointment. Yes. Almost all of us feel that. Because the movie was like this, like that. Or it did not satisfy us, we expected more. Sometimes our favorite scenes are not included in the movie. The ones we've been wanting and dying to see. I felt like this in Twilight. The book was very detailed. Very powerful. Every chapter was significant. Meyer was awesome. The movie was rubbish. Many scenes were changed. Super edit. Not what I was expecting. But what could I do? It's just a 2-hour movie compared to the 20+ chapters of the book. But I just wish that the characters read the book several times for them to understand and internalize and deliver their roles well(especially Stewart).

Now that the movie for third installment will soon be released, I'm rereading the book again. Like reviewing. To compare and complain afterward. It better be good. I like Eclipse.

I'm not speaking for all the book fans or anyone. This is my opinion. I have the right to blab in my own blog, right?
