Brad, Just sincerely wanted you to know that your website is great. I'm 33 with a video production degree, and work in "Master Control" at a TV station. My job is important, since I'm the last link before shows hit the air, but at certain times, I have time to surf the net and I truly enjoy your hard work. Hope you and Jillian have a great time, you compliment each other. Anyways, I had a bad night and had to go to work, and honestly, you brightened up my day. Thanks, Brian. Reply to this

Great review. It's a good example of how less can be more, hysterical.
A couple of my friends went to go see it at the mall today for some reason (the one had a date who wanted to see it). I bummed a ride so I could get some Christmas shopping done. I had to wait an hour in the theater lobby but it was totally worth it. Trashed it all the way home and had many a laugh. Reply to this

Say whatever you want about this movie but what I think the biggest flaw of New Moon is the fact that it presumes you read the book. As Jillian stated you have to have read the book to know what is going on in some scenes. So it's not enough you saw the first movie you have to be a fan of the books or buy the books to really understand some parts of the flick.
For me that's a major flaw in this or any movie if it excuses itself for you not getting the movie because you just didn't read the book. If the movie can't stay on it's own 2 feet without the book than it deserves the bashing it receives. Reply to this
