Having buried my head and been working for the past couple weeks, I looked up this morning and realized, “Oh, its Mar. 21st.” “Oh, its spring.” These thoughts were shortly followed by, “Ohmigod – its Twilight.”
This snuck up on me. Most movies don’t release on DVD on Saturdays. One of the many things I learned working at a movie store in high school (among them the fact that there is a massive difference between the 1954 and 1995 versions of Sabrina) is that in general movies are released on DVD on Tuesdays – it doesn’t interfere with the weekend box office of the studios’ newer pictures in theaters. But apparently, Twilight is throwing caution to the wind and coming out today. Which means they are expecting it to do really well. Which it will. I must go to the store!
I loved the books. I read the first three altogether and then waited impatiently for the fourth this past summer. (However – Renesmee? Really?) And I was fascinated by the movie – lets be honest, there were some things wrong with it (*cough*bodyglitter*cough*) but the chemistry between the leads and Bella’s relationship with her father were dead on. Being not far beyond the mental age of twelve, my inner Squeee! goes off just hearing the soundtrack. I guess I’m fated to having a long weekend of trying to work, but alas, watching Robert Pattison make googly eyes at Kristen Stewart. Life is so hard.
Next weekend will be more productive, I swear – I’ll be announcing my April contest, wherein prizes will include signed copies of both Revealed and Compromised.
Happy Reading!
