Twilight: My Favorite Movie
Twilight: My Favorite Movie

We all have our own favorites, such as favorite song, singer, actor, book, and movies. Some people like to watch comedy, thriller, action, drama, or romantic film. There are millions of movies that have caught my attention. However, I personally like fantasy film. They have impressive special effects and supernatural events which seem exciting. Particularly, I really enjoyed watching the teenage vampire movie. Twilight is definitely the one of the best movie I have ever seen. The writer, special effects, wonderful locations, and talented actors made this movie excellent.

The movie is based on the popular teen vampire book series written by Stephanie Meyer. There are 3 more part of the book, New moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn. The Twilight novels have gained worldwide recognition and sold over 100 million copies. Meyer was the bestselling author of 2008 and 2009 in America, having sold over 29 million books in 2008, and 26.5 million books in 2009. The differences between Stephanie Meyer's vampires and those from other films is that her vampires sparkles. These vampires glitter when they encounter sunlight.

The special effects, locations, and actors are all astonishing and amazing in this movie. For example, there is a scene in which Edward carries Bella on his back and climbs up to the very high tree very fast then jumps to another tree. Also, in the scene in which Edward fights with James, the special effects make this scene even more exciting. Moreover, the scenery is fantastic. The town of Forks, Washington is where the story take place. The Swan residence is used as the Cullen family’s home. Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, La Push’s first Beach, and Portland, Oregon, are also used as major locations in the movie.

Kristen Stewart is the leading actress and Robert Pattinson is the leading actor. They both have won many awards for Twilight and have been nominated for many awards in the past years. Kristen won MTV

    Doyle address both the movies and the books in this article. As Sady states “Twilight isn’t a literary masterpiece and doesn’t need to be” (para. 3). This entire uprising is devoted to the excitement of young women. With this uprising comes the negativity. Doyle writes about why the Twilight fans or “Twi-Hards” are being attack for enjoying it. Women were the reason the books brought in “16 percent of all book sales – four out of every 25 books sold…

    Films that I particularly favor are thrillers. One reason Thrillers become so enjoyable for me, a sense of diversion is created making the viewers more indulge in the movie all the way to the ending. The plots are usually twisted, climatic, suspenseful and intelligence is often use far as the writing perspective to result in an ecliptic viewing of the movie. A really great thriller will usually bring a shock factor by the climax, then the movie will receive a better understanding from the beginning to end. Another genre of films I enjoy are Musicals they are fashionable and express emotions through singing. I am really into lyricism so I enjoy comparing the actual expression of the each character's individual story and the progression…

    Although the book has differences, they also have many things in common. One of the most important similarity that is mention a lot, is when Jacobs dad (Billy Black) tells Bella to be careful, around the Cullens. Another one of them, is when Edward tries to change his schedule. He skips school for weeks and never talks to anyone. All because he couldn't read Bellas mind or control his self when he was around her. Another similarity between the two is the fight between Bella and James. It happened at the same location and the exact same way in both. One of the most similar scene is the when Bella joined the Cullens to play baseball. The last similar that I noticed was the scene/event when Tyler almost killed with his van. But, Edward was there…

    “Twi-hards,” fans of the infamous Twilight series, are known to be some of the craziest and feverish fans out there. Ever since the series was first launched as books in 2005 and later released as films in 2008, the vampire/werewolf craze has invaded the American culture and has even extended into international cultures, becoming a popular commodity of our consumer culture. Why has the series become so popular? Why are Twi-hards a particular type of audience with such eccentric characteristics? This is because the Twilight reader/spectator is sucked into both the fantastical world of the fiction novels and the cinematic world of the sci-fi romance film series as part of both the literary and cinematic apparatuses while the series could be considered a postmodernist “pastiche” of traditional monster stories, making it appealing to contemporary mass culture. Fredric Jameson’s postmodernist consumer society approach is the applicator model to follow.…

    Industrial Tycoons

    • 4 Pages

    Industrial tycoons of the nineteenth century used whatever they could to get to the top of the economy, by either contributing positively or in some cases even if it meant destroying all the other industries that got in their way. In the nineteenth century, industrial tycoons were known as either a robber baron (Jay Gould) or a Captain of Industry (Henry Ford). Depending on how someone contributed to the growth of businesses, labeled them as one or the other. Some of the contributing factors that played an effect on identifying an industrialist as a robber baron or industry captain are how they came to power of the business industry, how they used their power, and how they gave back to society. These industrial tycoons were some of the wealthiest men in the US.…

    Edward Cullen, Jacob Black, and Bella Swan might not be the most artful characters of created, but that’s not stopping young teenage girls, and some older, from reading and obsessing over the series. The Twilight series has had a very successful run, in both the movie industry and in the book industry. In 2009, Twilight novels constructed 16 percent of all book sales. This means that four out of every twenty-five books sold were part of the series. In addition to that, the first Twilight movie created made roughly $70.6 million on its opening weekend. While its soundtrack went on to sell around 2.2 million copies worldwide. As Sady Doyle phrased it in Girls Just Wanna Have Fangs “Yet, if the numbers are any indication, you don’t need male fans to dominate the marketplace.” (Ch. 10, Pg. 267)…

    Have you ever heard of the Twilight series or the Hunger Game trilogy? If you haven’t, you probably live under a rock!

The Twilight series has had three movies come out so far with another one coming up on November 18th and Hunger Games is coming out on the 23rd of March next year.

    Sex is one of the differences that are easily compared between both shows. Specifically, who’s having it and who isn’t. In the first three novels of Twilight, there is no sex between the protagonist, Bella, and her vampire boyfriend, Edward, though it’s implied that some of the other vampires are far more open to sex. Bella, who wants sex and tries to seduce Edward into it, is presented as wildly out of line, a hysterical girl who doesn’t know what’s best for her and must be brought to heel by Edward’s far superior and controlling ideas about marriage and sex. The fourth novel of the series, Breaking Dawn, fittingly breaks the “no-sex for Bella and Edward” rule, though only within the confines of marriage.…

    The Evolution of Vampires

    Fright Night, Twilight, Nosferatu, The Lost Boys, Underworld, and From Dusk till Dawn, one thing in common, they all revolve around vampires. The mystical world of vampires has progressed throughout the years, from Bram Stocker’s atrocious view of the mythical creature, to today’s view of vampires. Currently we view vampires as attractive people with pale skin, unique eye colors, and sometimes skin that sparkles. The characteristics of vampires have changed drastically from the once sinister being. The differences in the three films: 1931 Bela Lugosi film, Van Helsing, and Hotel Transylvania, all show how vampires have developed throughout the years.…

    First, in terms of story, The Lord of the Rings provides an epic story of good versus evil. The very fate of Middle Earth is at stake: will it remain a land of free people, or will it be subjected to slavery under a dark lord? From the very beginning of the series, The Lord of the Rings establishes a very clear struggle that will affect an entire continent (and possibly lands beyond). In contrast, the stakes in the Twilight Saga are never much higher than the personal lives of the main characters. Granted, for Bella, Edward, and Jacob, the outcome of events may be life and death (so they are very important to them personally), the issues before them are not likely to affect people outside of the small town where the action takes place. On the…

    Movies are a very personal preference. There are many different categories of movie and some are very enjoyable to certain people while others are not. The writer of the essay really enjoys action movies, science fiction, and fantasy. For the writer it is the thrill of the escape to a world where events are extra ordinary. The movies allow the writer to escape for those couple of hours and to feel like he is a part of that world. The writer does not enjoy romantic…
