Tell me about it! I wrote a 15-pages paper on this shot.

Quality production wise? High. Like, very.
I don't know why people hate the Twilight saga so much. I have not seen any of the movies or read the books, but I can see why it sells so well and why all the 15 year-olds are so hooked on it. I mean, it's no wonder it's a success. It has everything a good story needs to attract a huge audience (especially teenagers). What's there to hate about it? They know how to sell their product + vampires are so in vogue these days. I don't get why all the hate towards this Pattinson boy, really.

Some things happen in the books that didn't make it to the movies and some things happen in the movies that are nowhere in the books. No biggie. There's no way you can fit everything from a book into a movie. Adapting a book for a screenplay is about taking the essence of the story. It's not a picture version of the book you read, and people need to understand that. Plus it wouldn't work. I truly believe the Lord of the Rings would not have been half the success it is if the movies were any more true to the books.
