TRAILER
5 things you need to know about Twilight
1: The Books Are Popular. Very Popular. Sure, we're not talking Harry Potter levels yet - despite the many comparisons that Twilight has drawn to the wizarding series, mostly because it's a popular young adult series of novels that's transcended its target audience - but 17 million book sales in the three years since the release of the first book is still nothing to be sneezed at, and the books have collectively topped the New York Times bestseller list for close to a year. Face it; more people have read this than anything that inspired Iron Man.
Not to put to much pressure on the movie, but people are already writing about the way in which Twilight The Movie unites women of all ages in their lust for the franchise:
Let me introduce you to one of the most powerful new groups in Hollywood. It's not a group of actors, producers or directors. It's the rather interesting hybrid demographic who are getting their knickers in a twist over Twilight, due to be released in the UK next month... Teenage girls, young female adults and their mums converged at the Twilight conference at Comic-Con back in July, filling Hall H to capacity and rupturing tonsils at the appearance of their hunkalicious hero.
Believe me, this demographic is out there. They just don't have a name yet.
They're naming themselves, however; there are fansites called Twilight Moms (and its related site, Twilight Teens - and also Twilight20Somethings, just in case you don't fit into either of the previous two) as well as Team Jacob, Team Edward, Team Switzerland and even Team Twilightist amongst many others out there, each one a demonstration of obsession with the novels' familiar tale of a boy, a girl and the unspoken love that dare not speak its name.
2: The Books Aren't Very Good. Critical reception to Twilight, the first book in the series was marginally positive (Booklist's "There are some flaws here—a plot that could have been tightened, an overreliance on adjectives and adverbs to bolster dialogue—but this dark romance seeps into the soul" being essentially the tenor of most mainstream reviews), but each successive book received poorer reviews, with Breaking Dawn, the final book getting drubbings from the LA Times ("The problem is Stephenie Meyer is no J.K. Rowling... We would have much preferred the whole thing to end in book three, "Eclipse," with yes, some happiness for Bella, but also some angst, some heartbreak, and a dark, ominous future looming" ), Publisher's Weekly ("[G]randeur is out. This isn't about happy endings; it's about gratification" ) and Entertainment Weekly ("[You'll] abruptly lose all patience when... Meyer takes her supernatural love story several bizarre steps too far" ). We may be biased, but sister site Jezebel came up with our favorite review:
It's 754 pages long, its heroine's dominant personality trait is low self-esteem, and, as Amazon reviewer Eventide points out, nobody really has to give up anything. Even the tedium of immortality is glossed over — these vampires just keep busy with their hobbies. If I had an eternity to read, I still might never pick up this book again.
3: The Writer Can Be A Bit Of A Prima Donna. Although the Twilight series officially finished with the fourth book, Breaking Dawn, there was a fifth book planned, Midnight Sun, that would've retold the events of the first book from the hero's perspective. But then a first draft of the book's opening appeared online, and author Stephenie Meyer posted this response on her website:
I did not want my readers to experience Midnight Sun before it was completed, edited and published. I think it is important for everybody to understand that what happened was a huge violation of my rights as an author, not to mention me as a human being... So where does this leave Midnight Sun? My first feeling was that there was no way to continue. Writing isn't like math; in math, two plus two always equals four no matter what your mood is like. With writing, the way you feel changes everything. If I tried to write Midnight Sun now, in my current frame of mind, James would probably win and all the Cullens would die, which wouldn't dovetail too well with the original story. In any case, I feel too sad about what has happened to continue working on Midnight Sun, and so it is on hold indefinitely.
(She's since recanted slightly, telling Entertainment Weekly that "[t]he funny thing about that statement is I didn't actually write the majority of it... in the end only the one or two sentences written by me seem really jarring [compared with everything else], and people didn't get that there was sort of a joke in there." Midnight Sun, however, is still on hold.)
Nonetheless, she's kept a tight hold on the movie, only agreeing to the project in the first place when teeth size met her approval, and having final say on casting and the length and passion of final clinches. "It's been good for me just in general to have to speak up because I am so invested in this," she's explained.
4: VINOs: Vampires In Name Only. The vampires in the Twilight books don't have elongated teeth, and they have no problem going out in daytime in their Pacific Northwest hometown, because it's so foggy (I can't tell if that's actually funny or just a kind of crappy dodge). They also, as almost every example of vampire fiction since, what, Anne Rice's Interview With A Vampire (or maybe Marilyn Ross' Barnabas Collins?), are tragic souls afflicted by a curse that don't really want to sink their teeth into humanity - and so, they eat animals and go on "hunting trips" to take care of their bloodlust. Yes, it's the Pacific Northwest Hipster Rural Lifestyle turned goth. Whatever happened to the good old days of Nosferatu and vampires who were unafraid to be vampires? I mean, if they have his pallor, why can't they have his mannerisms?
5: Remember The Golden Compass. Summit Pictures, the studio behind the movie may be nervous about saying that they've got a hit on their hands ahead of the movie's release, but the movie is estimated to make somewhere between $20million and $50million in its first weekend, depending on how optimistic your sources are. It's worth remembering the fate of The Golden Compass, however; last year's "The New Harry Potter" had a similar amount of buzz pre-release, and a similarly impressive opening weekend... before audiences realized that the movies didn't live up to the books. Ultimately, the movie wasn't successful enough to warrant filming the second of the three His Dark Materials novels. The same thing may happen to Twilight. The figure to keep in mind is rumored to be $150 million; if Twilight makes less than that, you can forget about seeing New Moon, Eclipse or Breaking Dawn in theaters anytime soon. We can only hope.
Twilight is released in theaters November 21st.

personajele
Edward Cullen: Edward was born in 1901 and became a vampire in 1918. Beyond beautiful, Edward has the special ability to read people’s minds…with one exception. 21 year old British actor Robert Pattinson is handling the role of Edward in the movie. Pattinson, who’s no stranger to franchise films having played Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter movies, has the basic physical traits of the character and has a female fan base built up by his Harry Potter role that he’ll be bringing with him to Twilight.
Bella Swan: Bella (short for Isabella) moved from Phoenix, Arizona to Forks, Washington to be with her father Charlie after her mother, Renee, remarried. Bella has nothing against her mother’s new husband; the move was prompted by her desire to give them a chance to build their life together without worrying about her. Settling into high school life in Forks, Bella is drawn to fellow student Edward before she finds out he’s a vampire. Once she learns the truth, Bella decides being with a vampire is something she can handle. Bella’s accident prone, is close to an albino in coloring, and doesn’t consider herself attractive. She’s never had a boyfriend prior to falling for Edward.
LA-born actress Kristen Stewart will be playing Bella in the film. Stewart’s the most recognizable face of the young cast, having starred in feature films since 2001. In 2008 Stewart was nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award as part of the cast of the critically acclaimed drama Into the Wild directed by Sean Penn.
Jacob Black: Jacob’s father, Billy, and Bella’s dad, Charlie, have been close for years, and Charlie considers the Blacks to be part of his family. Jacob goes to a different school and is younger than Bella, but the age difference doesn't matter to him once he becomes totally infatuated with her after they spend time together at a beach party on the reservation where he lives. Jacob is a Quileute Indian who breaks the rules and shares with Bella legends about a truce between his werewolf ancestors and the ‘cold ones’ - the vampire family, the Cullens. The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl star Taylor Lautner (who is not a Native American) plays Jacob in the film. Jacob’s described as a towering hunk by the third book of the series, but in the first book he’s pretty much a normal teen so Lautner’s physique shouldn’t be an issue.
Alice Cullen and and Jasper Hale: Like the rest of the Cullen kids, Alice and Jasper were ‘adopted’ by Carlisle and Esme after choosing to forego feasting on humans. Alice and Edward are close and, like Edward, Alice has a very unique talent. Alice is able to see the future, a very helpful talent in keeping Bella (who is a magnet for trouble) safe and sound. Alice’s partner and the love of her life is Jasper, the newest member of the Cullen family and the vampire who struggles the most with their diet restrictions. Jasper is able to affect moods, and can calm a situation down whenever it becomes necessary. Ashley Greene, a 21 year old from Jacksonville, Florida, plays Alice. Jackson Rathbone (TV’s Beautiful People series) takes on the part of Jasper.
Rosalie Hale and Emmett Cullen: Rosalie is stunningly beautiful, and her vanity is what cost her her human life. While all the other members of the Cullen family accept Bella as part of Edward’s life (although it’s a strange choice, they’re happy he’s finally found someone to love), Rosalie doesn’t mask her disapproval of Bella. Her feelings are not shared by her partner Emmett, a likable though thoroughly intimidating vampire. Lighthearted is a strange word to use to describe a lifeless creature, but it works in Emmett’s case. Nikki Reed (Thirteen) has the difficult task of playing one of the most beautiful creatures in the world. 23 year old Kellan Lutz plays Emmett.

Este superb filmul 8-> dar are greseli xD
Oricum, cu greseli, fara greseli ramane preferatul meu.
_______________________________________ Tocmai imi terminase portretul.Plecase.Imi lasase culoar liber spre pictura.Mi-am infasurat trupul in cearcaful de pe canapea si m-am dus la pictura,am privit-o atent. Reusise sa transforme un trup had, cu niste forme urate intr-unul frumos, conturat melodios asemenea unei zeite. Priveam pictura si nu ma regaseam in ea. Era un inger acolo, nu eu. Eram frumoasa. - Este cea mai frumoasa pictura pe cara am facut-o vreo data, i-am auzit soptitul langa urechea mea. Am zambit usor. Vroiam sa ma mai picteze, vroiam sa ma mai vad frumoasa, asa cum numai el reusea sa ma faca. Mi-a atins umarul gol cu buzele, isi picta buzele pe pielea mea chinuita. A facut un ocol in stanga mea si s-a asezat in fata mea. Si-a lipit buzele moi de ale mele si ma sarutat apasat. Mi-a dezlegat nodul ,facut de mine la cearcaf pentru a sta, si mi-a lasat inca o data trupul gol sub privirile lui. Si-a trecut delicat degetele peste pielea mea uitandu-se atent la fiecare centrimetru de carne peste care trecea cu buricul degetului. Imi va fi dor de mangaierea lui, de mangaierea batranului meu iubit. Oare rece si alba , cum voi fi, voi mai simti ceva? Mi-am trecut degetele prin parul lui castaniu-blond, lung pana la umeri si i-am privit ochii albastri. O lacrima de durere mi-a scapt. -Nu vei pleca niciodata de langa mine. -Sa-ti gasesti pe altcineva, cineva mai aproape de ani tai, nu cu doua zeci de ani mai tanara, nu toate fetele de varsta mea sunt ca mine, sa fi fericit,sa-ti faci o familie si sa pastrezi tabloul de azi. Doar uita-ma, treci mai departe, uita-ma! The Painter
