I can't wait for it!!

Oh, that's awesome that they are considering Emily

I hope they listen to the fans and consider Gaspard for Edward.

I'm so excited about the movie.

Oh wow, only 2010? That feels so far off.

Time flies by! I am sure we'll get the movie in no time

You're all very welcome

I've added everyone to the list as requested.

Chris, I gave you the number you wanted

In the last thread we wanted to come up with reasons why we love each book for the opening post, but kinda lost track.... wanna start again?

Hi! I'm new here, I just got into the series during the summer, after seeing all the hype on the internet, & let's say I wasn't disappointed when I started reading Twilight, it's such an amazing book! If someone could add me to the list, it would be great! Thanks.

Welcome to the thread Melanie

I'll add you right away .D What's your fave book so far?

Melanie95 · 09-16-2007, 04:50 AM

I'm reading New Moon right now, and I don't like the lack of Edward, and I'm not a big fan of Jacob, but I'm not done yet, so I'll see. If I had to choose I'd say, Twilight, definitly.

There are some amazing part in it!

Thanks Andie.

2010 for the movie?

I'd think we'd have a much better chance of getting a board if the movie was at least in production.

My favourite book is 'New Moon'.

for the new thread.

Welcome to all the newbies

11 months till Breaking dawn? I guess that means lots of re-reads of the whole series to pass time.

I just stumbled over this on Stephenie Meyer's website:

Quote:

Now, September 13th will be special for another reason. The good people of Forks, Washington will be celebrating "Stephenie Meyer Day" next Thursday (Note: Stephenie will not be attending due to the previously planned Eclipse Tour). Click here to view a list of the events of the day. Also, while you're on their site, check out the new "Twilight Points of Interest" page. Anyway, I thought it was very cool. Have a great day!

The dates always change for movies that are in development. So I'm looking at early to middle '09 for the movie.

My favorite book? Well, my favorite book is Twilight for many reasons. It's the first book that introduced all of them and it was the book where Edward and Bella's relationship developed.

New Moon is probably my least favorite book out of the three, but the ending was the best out of the three.

Eclipse is my second favorite. Even though they had good E/B moments, there wasn't alot of time for their relationship. They kept getting interupted by Jacob things, the newborns, and everything they had to do to kill the newborns.

***JenKneeSuu*** · 09-16-2007, 09:53 AM

Can I be added to the list? I'm loving the series so far. I'm in the middle of New Moon and have trouble putting it down. I even took it to my nephew's flag football game yesterday!

***Andie*** · 09-16-2007, 10:28 AM

Melanie, there is much more Edward in Eclipse for you to look forward to

I hope the date changes

But the date often changes during the production, so I am not worried.

At least we'll be getting a new book next year to tie us over

Would you give us some reasons so we can add them to the opening post?

Nad, thanks for the info! That's just brilliant

I'd love to go to Forks one day and see it for myself. The beach looks so pretty

Welcome to the thread Alessia

It's nice to see you over here too

Jenkneesuu, welcome

The twilight series claimed another victim I'd say

I know the feeling. I could hardly put it down to eat & dreink and read it in one evening/night

Btw I've added you to the list as requested.

punkdisorderly23 · 09-16-2007, 10:57 AM

Hey all

hmmm, picking a favorite out of the three books? wow thats not as easy as you'd think.....I'd probably have to say New Moon is my favorite one out of the series. But we can't forget the Original First that started our love for the series, so Twilight ranks a close close close second for me

Thanks Andie

Well, I was gone most of yesterday evening...so I had to do without!

But I have a feeling I'm going to go grab it and read while I mod my boards! I'm going to multitask like crazy.

I too am missing Edward in New Moon. I love how does appear in her mind once in a while..but it's just not the same. As for Jacob..I'm still not sure how I feel about him.
