My attention span is fine. Do you see alot of "popcorn" movies in my collection? I don't need action and explosions, but i do need a good story, acting, directing, etc. and Twilight is lacking in all the categories that "technically" make a movie good. When it all boils down, it's a teenage romance.

'twilight' looks and sounds awesome on blu...it is what it is, and i expect the same for 'new moon' when it comes out on blu.

Lighten up peeps

I agree, I saw your collection, it's cool, but for all of the statements made by yourself about Twilight, I could make the same argument for your "Snow White" selection.

That usually is ok, except when you have diologe like "your breathing is my gift", things do seem to be stooping down in quality.

Well technically, the book was just as silly as the movie, and vice-versa, at least its not lacking consistency.

Well, most of my animated movies were bought for my kids, but i'd rather watch all of them than twilight any day of the week. At least some thought and craft were put into them.

I can't believe you guys didn't take your children to go watch Fantastic Mr.Fox I told you all it was a fantastic movie.

And now it opened up at number 9...shame on you, I am very disappointed, more of you took your children to watch the pitiful Old Dogs

Damn all you guys to Hell!!!!

I might even see it again, since my wife didn't get to. This is gonna be completely insane on BD. That type animation is perfect for wes anderson. I can't believe there's hardly any talk of it on this site.

Agreed. Looking through your other movies, your love of twilight surprises me. You don't seem..............the "gentle" type.

I watched over a month ago in England and just seemed to fade away everywhere I'm gutted I actually put it on par with Toy Story.

Down goes the Moon

What's people's fascination with seeing this film "fail" as the weeks go by?

It will not fail, it is a huge financial sucess for whatever reason. But the New Moon fanboys

that were claiming it would overtake TDK's financial prowess will have to reassess their stance.

I don't remember anyone here actually saying it will pass TDK actually. Besides, The Blind Side only passed up New Moon one day last week I think. Either way, it doesn't really matter. They are both pretty big successes in their own rights and I am happy to see both do well.
