Not my cup of tea - A review of Twilight
Matagal ko na naririnig ang tungkol sa Twilight. Kesyo this is the hottest book since Harry Potter na katatapos lang last year. Di na witches and wizard ang characters but a hot cold-skinned vampire. Mabilis na nauubos ang copies from the shelves kaya sure-winner ito pag ina-adapt sa film. Di nga nagtagal at binili na ang rights and now it is a box office hit.
I haven’t read a word from the book but since palabas na sya last Wednesday so go and watch kami last Sunday. Gusto rin mapanood ng Monica, my sister, so sinama na namin siya ni Arlo. Di ko kasi siya napanood ng High School Musical kaya hinayaan ko na syang manood ng Twilight. Tapos sinabi pa niya na required daw sila to watch it on their English class. They have to compare it with Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire.
Twilight pales in comparison with Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles (no pun intended), but we cannot deny its popularity with the teens. It’s the first in a series of books so the author was still introducing and building the characters. Nabagalan lang talaga ako at naantok ako sa ilang parts. Di ko naman na experience yung lull na yun while watching the first parts na Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter.
Alam ko with vegetarian people, they need to take supplements kasi they miss some key nutrients from not eating meat. Ganun din ang naisip ko with the vampires pero it’s different with Twilight. I don’t understand how Edward and his clan easily killed a vampire who doesn’t deprive himself with human blood.
I know that vampires are beautiful pero di ko na realize na aside from having very fair skin eh may naka-implant palang mga swarovski crystals sa mga balat nila. Gawa kaya ito ng special diamond peel they undergo with a vampire Vicky Belo? Hehehe.
Di naman ako masyadong na-impress with the movie. Ibig sabihin ba nito ay matanda na ako kasi pang teenagers ang target market ng fim noir na ito? Di ko matanggap! Hindi!!!!
