Yes, i'm one of the millions of people across the globe that waited in line for hours last night to see the opening night of New Moon. And it was SOOOOOO worth it! I realize some people just don't get the whole Twilight craze, and that's cool and all, to each his own, but if you've read the books, then you know what i'm talking about!! The books are incredible, lots more depth than some teenage heart-throb. I could attempt to explain why the books are so mesmerizing, but to save time, i'll just say read them for yourself and then make your own opinion.
Unfortunately, the first movie was very disappointing, in my opinion, because they didn't stick to the book script at all. It was too theatrical and lovey-dovey, and just silly. But this second movie, with the new director, was AMAZING!! They did such a wonderful job keeping with the script and plot of the book, and the characters really came to life.
It was insane though! The whole island of Oahu was sold out. When we arrived at our theater at 8pm to watch the 12:01am showing, there was already a three hour+ line waiting to get in. They had to open 12 movie screens, and each theater was full to the max. We got awesome seats and managed to be in the largest movie screen room! It was SOOOO much fun, i felt like i was in college all over again, which is fitting since we were surrounded by mostly high school and college kids!
And i do have to say, I have the absolute BEST husband in the world! Because not only did he go with me, he bought our tickets early, he waited in line with me, he brought me hamburgers and french fries and starbucks to snack on while we were in line, and he even walked to Borders to buy us magazines to read! What a man!! =) And to top all of that off, when we finally got home at 3am, he set his alarm for 6am to get up and go to work. And he did all of this because he loves me. How could i ever, ever ask for more?!! We had the best night ever together! It was so silly and crazy and fun; i'm so lucky to be married to my best friend!!!
