1) A one Mrs. Shoo was suppose to be out there tonight. Tickets are still printed out on the fridge. She bailed after a long week. shoo   Thursday, November 20, 2008

2) Tell Mrs. Shoo she needs to get over here asap. I am with two teachers and we will all be at school tomorrow! K8Day   Thursday, November 20, 2008

3) She's in bed. As much as I'd love to run in and jump on the bed and wake her up, I am going to pass. shoo   Thursday, November 20, 2008

4) I've attended five midnight releases. They were the three Star Wars prequels, The Two Towers, and Return of the King. Not quite sure why I didn't see Fellowship of the Ring at midnight. Do the Star Wars Special Editions count? I caught those at midnight, too. Bill   Friday, November 21, 2008

5) Come back and give us a review. dannie   Friday, November 21, 2008

6) Agreed, Dannie. I'd like to hear the final verdict! Sorry, Sarah S., that your week was so bad that you had to bail on your tickets and midnight showing!! LGrant   Friday, November 21, 2008

7) How was the movie?????? Kelly   Friday, November 21, 2008

8) But no spoilers please - I am going to see it tonight - I am home sick today - but I am going to the movie no matter what justmeg   Friday, November 21, 2008

9) It was good. It definitely stayed true to the spirit of the book. But with all book to movie adaptations, there are huge differences. It ends the same way the book does (of course), so it is definitely open for a sequel. I would say if you have not read the book, it is still a good movie, but be prepared to not have a nice wrapped up story, it is open ended. K8Day   Friday, November 21, 2008

10) So glad to hear that it staryed true to the book - I cannot wait until tonight justmeg   Friday, November 21, 2008

11) going to see Twilight in another week, CAN'T WAIT!!! I just finished New Moon night before last .... I am glad too to hear it will be like the book, thanks for being our movie critic on this one :) SA Tenor   Friday, November 21, 2008

12) There are definitely some huge differences. Not so much in story line, but in scenes and execution. But it is not half bad. K8Day   Friday, November 21, 2008

13) What about the other half? Joe   Friday, November 21, 2008

14) Logically, if it is not half bad then it could be anything other than half bad. So it could be one quarter bad or even .49 (recurring) bad. But does that necessarily mean the rest is good? That would presume that things are only good or bad and that there are no gray areas in between. LimeyGeorge   Friday, November 21, 2008

15) It's a figure of speech guys. I just mean to convey, I liked it, but it could have been a little bit better. K8Day   Friday, November 21, 2008

16) I know. When someone makes a facetious or cynical remark I like to go along with it and explore thoughts and possibilities. It can be fun sometimes. LimeyGeorge   Friday, November 21, 2008

17) OK - I have to agree - not half-bad - some parts could have been better and a few things were not as they should have been but they had to condense alot - the best thing I can definately say is Edward sparkles - oh does he sparkle justmeg   Friday, November 21, 2008

18) He does indeed! I think one thing they got right was casting. It was perfect. K8Day   Saturday, November 22, 2008

19) Glad to hear they casted well. That can be crucial. Sorry the story didn't hold up as well but hopefully they got most of it right and didn't leave gaps that most folks get confused since they take out too much--like an abridged book. Sounds like I can wait for the DVD. LGrant   Saturday, November 22, 2008

20) K8, I'm really jealous. My tickets went to waste. I even had a student saving a seat for my friend and me. It was just such a long week. I got through it...Thursday night being my last major activity, and I crashed. All the adrenaline I was living on was gone. I will get to see that movie, for sure.
