Twilight-Breaking Dawn Part Two
Friday November 16, 2012 marks the release date for the last Twilight movie. This movie is expected to bring in a lot of money in the first weekend. Thousands of people already bought their tickets 2 weeks earlier. Imagine how many people might be camping out for that movie? To be honest I only saw the first 2 movies, but only because I was dragged there by my twilight-lover best friend.  I never really understood the movie. This movie has a lot of unreal characters in it, which makes it so hard to compare your daily life to.
This whole event started with a dream. A dream that Stephanie Meyer had, that changed the lives of millions. I can still remember when everyone in class had a twilight book; I took one look at the size of that book and was like “No way”.  The book had like 500 pages in it. What kind of crazy person would read a book that long, I thought? But, it turns out that 100 million people were crazy enough to read it.
In 2008 the first of the 5 twilight movies was released. It was quiet shocking to see the long lines and the camp outs. I guess some people really are interested in this book. So I read the first page of the first twilight novel. It was nearly the end of the page when I was getting bored. But, like they always say ‘Never judge a book by its cover’ so I gave it another read; but it was not really my style of reading. There was a lot of fantasy and strange events that I couldn't quiet grasp.
Now as the 5th and final movie is released I look back to the many years of seeing people line up all day, and the advertisements that filled most of the London stores and Shopping malls. This novel was a journey that everyone discovered. And now as I’m writing this article I’m starting to really debate going to that final movie, just to see the people that will never fill up the movie screen with their scary vampire stories and memorable moments.
Well if I’m going to see the last movie I should probably start watching the past ones I missed.
