I've read all 4 books and I couldnt put them down...was a bit disappointed in the film but isnt that always the way when you've read the book first..

I know some people here are disappointed in how the towns of Port Angeles and Forks aren't accurately represented. My kids joke often about how they never have gotten lost getting from, what was it, Gottshalks, I think, to Port Book and News. lol Port Angeles doesn't have warehouses to get lost in. And Forks, if you dressed like the book says people do and walked about Forks, people would look at you funny! lol Ah but isn't that the way with fiction?

its the same as Scottish people always getting portrayed as drinking and swearing all the time and none of us are like that at all

I take it though that there is a lot more tourists to these towns now..?

There were a lot there even when they weren't filming the movie. Well, from what I remember of the times I've been there.

I can imagine it was packed like my city at least during filming.

I love that series too! My daughter and I read the Twilight series but have not yet gotten out to see the movie. She says the guy they picked to play Edward is not remotely handsome enough to play him, and I concur...

What about that factory-looking place? With the big pipes and stuff? I dressed funny there and nobody said boo to me!

If they were looking at me funny I didn't notice.

I read the Twilight books, and my sis H took me to see the movie, the movie
is not really as good as books and my brothers and i like to watch it on some website so that we can make fun of it.
