5 Reasons New Moon Is Good: A Follow-Up

November 24, 2009

Last April, while New Moon was in production, I gave you five reasons why I thought the movie could be good. I think the sequel is better than Twilight, which many of you agree with, but let's get back to my five April theories — does New Moon fulfill them all?

as much as I appreciate the improvements of the twilight saga with new moon, I actually prefer the first movie. For some reason new moon left me unsatisfied and lacked connection between the characters. Like it wasn't believable to me that bella and edward deeply cared for one another. In the first one it was so obvious. Meh, i dunno...

the contacts were wicked bad. should have just reused ones from the first movie. not only were they weirdly-colored but also the iris' looked to be enlarged to a not-even-close-to-normal size. hopefully, they'll get it right for the next movie.

Yeah, Anon, one of my biggest complaints about NM is the makeup and the too-bright contacts. I didn't think that they could do worse than Twilight with the pale makeup, but they did. And the orange contacts on the Cullens were just awful — how would they ever be assumed normal with those eyes?

Yeah people laughed when Vamp Bella and Edward were running through the woods where I was too...i felt a little embarassed for them...still loved the movie though!

i agree with your assessment as well. now for the negatives: the makeup was absolutely horrible... especially the voluri. considering the cgi was pretty good, you'd think that they could translate the pale faces on screen a bit better. additionally, the dream sequence with edward and (vampire) bella was comical. people actually laughed out loud in the theater. perhaps it was all those scenes with the hot, ripped wolf pack that preceded it, but edward just looked silly skipping through the meadow.

I agree with all of your points! One thing we couldn't foresee was a small glimpse into Breaking Dawn. I thought I'd fall out of my seat when I saw Alice's vision - proving to Aro that Bella would indeed become one of them. That was AWESOME!!!
