I have to admit that the twilight movies don't show the best visual effects. The quality SHOULD improve!!!

Watching the TLA-trailer, I remembered the movie Eragon. It had spectacular trailers and the latest visual effects. But that's the best thing I can say about it. OK, the guy was gorgeous, but the story wasn’t compelling at all.

Of course, I can not predict if the story of TLA is good or not, but I know that most visual effect loaded movies have shortcomings concerning the story.

Yep, effects and screenwriter are totally different animals. This Airbender trailer sorta made me wonder, though, if M. Night might not be a good choice for BD? Looked pretty epic…just a thought…:)

My kids loved Avatar when it was on TV and watched it religiously!

It looks intense!! I think the graphics are going to be pretty cool….that kid is kinda like vampire Ben in BD!!
DreamlessNights

He's made comments that he really likes the series Personally, I'm pretty excited to see some of his work again.

Jackson or no Jackson — this movie looks freakin' awesome!

(Of course, there is Jackson — so epic BONUS!)

and btw, welcome to the site! ^_^

I've always liked him. He's definitely different! I guess he was in the running at some point, but now I think they have a director all picked out?

I agree with you completely about Eragon- the trailer seemed so promising and the film was TERRIBLE! This is why, in my comment, I said that the movie “looks” great- “look” being the operative word. At this point it is impossible to determine whether or not the film (writing, direction, acting, editing) is truly good. For everyone involved with the project, and mostly for Jackson, I hope that it proves wonderful. And you are 100% right in your comment about films that are heavy on the visual effects- their creators tend to sacrifice the quality of the story and the performances for the sake of “show”. But when- as was the case with New Moon- the film lacks in both the visual department and in its writing, direction and performances, well then the result is disasterous…as we so clearly saw!
Now, I am no oracle and so I cannot say with any certainty whether Eclipse will be a triumph or a disaster, but watching the trailer last night, I felt, for the first time in a very long time, hopeful. It just looks much, much better than New Moon's trailers ever did. I cannot tell you how much I hope that Eclipse exceeds my expectations (which are not very high). *crosses all bendable body parts*
STELLA [Team BROKEN HAND]

Yeah, I’m not a fan of MR myself. After I heard the rumour that she changed the end of BD I was in a state of shock for days.
I really hope (for her) that this was just a rumour!
Do you guys have news about this topic?
Randidoll~The Runways<3

The crappiest part about that was the book was amazing. the Eragon trillogy is super fantastic. But they ROYALY effed that one up when putting it on the screen.. and by royally I mean they changed the ending so even if it had done well, they wouldnt have been able to make a second without some serious WTF moments.

yeah JACKSONIAN ! : D
Randidoll~The Runways<3

Well, duh. Jacksons amazing hahaha
RUN W/ VAMPS!<3 **SPARKLIN'**

I so can't wait for this movie! I have to say that I'm very pleased with all I've seen. It seems they really kept the movie true to the show. And the special effects are indeed awesome. I think the casting was great too. Though it'll be interesting getting used to new voices. LOL. If only the Twilight Saga would have been a bit more accurate.

I hate that Eclipse and Avatar The Last Airbender might battle it out in the box office. I feel much of Breaking Dawn will come off of how well Eclipse does. But Avatat needs to do well! I so need to see an Earth and Fire movie made. I'm afraid if the first one doesn't do well we won't get the other two movies! *Sigh.*

P.S. Does anyone else think it's ridiculous that they had to remove “Avatar” from “The Last Airbender” just because that other Avatar movie came out this year?
Randidoll~The Runways<3

! glad to see alot of people like Jackson too

Between Eclipse and The Last Airbender the staff at the theatre is going to know me by name!!
twilight_addict / Twister Love

The entire production is VISIBLY of a much higher standard than that of The Twilight Saga franchise. I'm sure you know the importance of visual accuracy, attention to the smallest details when dealing with the fantasy genres. It is very difficult to create a believable fantasy world. Summit just do not seem to grasp this simple fact and that infuriates me (as I am sure it does many of the ladies on this site). SM's novels are and were hugely popular at the time Twilight was made and they deserved better treatment on all accounts- a much larger budget, a capable adapter of novels with proven success, better directors…
I respect your opinion regarding MR's writing skills, it is your own and you are entirely entitled to it, but I cannot share it. She did the poorest possible job. She took already dangerously saccharine dialogues and instead of diluting them with more realistic writing, she distilled them into unbearably sugary (I am doing my best to avoid the word cheesy) lines. e.g: “Bella, you give me everything just by breathing.” *shudders” Not even in the soappiest soap opera's do you hear such lines anymore. And I know what you'll say- that's how SM wrote it in the book… But that which works in a 700 page long book, with all the humour and wit that are thrown in between, cannot work in a 2 hour long film. This is where a good screen writer comes into the picture. Intelligent adaptation can preserve the essence, the all-important emotions, while elevating the dialogues and creating more realistic, and ultimately much more effective, cinematic moments. That is my opinion and I sincerely appologize if it offends you! : )
twilight_addict / Twister Love

Hey, leah! How are you, my sweet? Of course they should get rid of her, but we all know that won't happen. *weeps* Summit know that they've got us hooked and that we will keep returning to the theatres in support of our cast and book series no matter how terrible the scripts. It is sad, but they just do not give a rat's ar$e about the fans.
DreamlessNights

Haha, no, your opinion doesn't offend me. I wish the Saga had gotten more tender lovin' care, too.
RUN W/ VAMPS!<3 **SPARKLIN'**

of course ! he is our beloved jasper … even if his hair sucks … we love him 2 death !!!!
twilight_addict / Twister Love

Freinds then? : )
STELLA [Team BROKEN HAND]

Yeah, I am hopeful as well.

NM was not the best movie ever made –sorry that I have to say that, but it’s true-, but I was really disappointed after seeing the deleted/extended scenes on the DVD.
There was so much great material that should have been in the movie, while scenes that are in the movie should have been cut.
They should get rid of this editor for BD.
DreamlessNights

That's what it sounds like. Plus, M. Night seems to have his hands pretty full, lol.
DreamlessNights

Of course! Twilight brings people together!

this film has nothing to see Eragon this is the legend of Aang who is a really nice dotos I have the books of legend and this movie looks like it will portray comperfeição not wait to get it in the cinema.
Randidoll~The Runways<3

ahah you should have seen him in the Tv show Beautiful People… his hair is pretty bad there. the color would have been right for Jas, but the cut.. bahaahha
twilight_addict / Twister Love

I almost died of fustration when I saw the extended “truck scene”, with Bella and Edward on their way back to Bella's house after the party. Why on earth would any one in their right minds cut that scene and throw it so off ballance?! Those 40-50 seconds which they cut would have made all the difference in the world! I don't know if the editors (*sighs* name of my favorite band) were the same for all three films- just from the style of it iI would say Twilight's editor was not the same one used for New Moon (I'll have to check it on imdb)- but the editing on New Moon was terrible, truly terrible! I so want BD to be good! I t is the most challenging book of the series to adapt and unless they are brilliantly done, the films will be disasterous! *falls to knees and prays to theTwi-gods: “please, please, please, let them be good!”
twilight_addict / Twister Love

*sighs in relief * Wonderous! : )
RUN W/ VAMPS!<3 **SPARKLIN'**

the hair ….. awww is sucks ! i miss edward's bouffant sooo much ! ohhh and alce her ahir has less spikes ! ahah and esme has darker hair ! ahhaha dayum everyone's hair is changing ! WOW
Randidoll~The Runways<3

Yeah, I think everyone misses the bouffant. But, can't dwell on whats happened right? Gotta remember that those characters are still the same, even if they physically dont exactly match. Everyones vision is different, right? Don't get so down sweety! Theres so many things to be positive about!
twilight_addict / Twister Love

Bill Condon has been chosen to direct Breaking Dawn. Now I am pretty torn with regards to him because, on the one hand, he directed Gods and Monsters, which was fantastically done, but, on the other hand, Dreamgirls(apart from Jennifer Hudson's stellar performance) I did not like at all.
I hope that he goes more Gods and Monsters with BD than Dreamgirls- because, fang-less, sparkling, vegetarian, celibate vampires are one thing, but fang-less, sparkling, vegetarian, celibate vampires in sequence suits and feathers is a whole differnt ball game (pun inteded!)! : 0

I didn't notice anything in the trailer as far as CGI that I wanted better…but there good still be some improvements. Remember the first Jacob wolf and then how they changed it and completely made it look more spectacular? Perhaps there is still time for change.
black_wolf

M.Night messed up quite a lot of things I can tell that just by the trailer, like everyone in the fire nation they are supposed ot be japanese or white as they are in the show and theres just so much, MR is a terrible writer i agree with mnay of you they could have done much better with the films if they came from paramount or dreamworks. I hope the last airbender is good even though its obviously butchered. And i hope Eclipse and BD are way better than the disapointment thta was New Moon, the trailer gives me high hopes.
STELLA [Team BROKEN HAND]

I love the extended “walking to class” scene at Bellas birthday.
Bella explains that Jacob is just a friend, teases Edward that friends are people you like to spend time with without kissing and Edward tells her that her “friend” Jacob needed 2 weeks to find the right dreamcatcher. AWESOME!!!
That definitely should have been in the movie!
WritingSchizo101

I agree. I hope TLA does well, especialy i nspite of those damn Racebenders. I swear, if they ruin this for me . . . . *calms down* well, you get the idea.
That is very stupid. There is no reason the movie with the blue people should have been called 'Avatar'. Avatar: The Last Airbender is a unique name for a movie and nowv they can't use the full thing. And now what will they called Movies 2 and 3? How will others know that they are continuations of Movie One? 'The Last Airbender: Earth' seems the only way to do it, but stil . . . Anyway, I can't talk about Avatar without people thinking about the stupid smurf movie and think THA show stole the titl when it is really the opposite. Grrrrrrr! So much ridding o nthis one movie.
I love Dev!
twilight_addict / Twister Love

Oh, there is no doubt that the Eclipse trailer shows vast visual improvements on New Moon! The colour-scheme, the make-up, the werewolves, the action sequences- all much, much better than in New Moon! But it is still so visibly clear that the Twilight films have much smaller budgets than the HP, Lord of the Rings, and other similar, franchises- that is the problem. Can you imagine what Twilight might have looked like with a 100 million$ budget? Can you imagine what the level of the production team might have been? The directors, writers and editors? I know I should let bygones be bygones, but it still hurts! It always will! As I said, I am grateful to David Slade for elevating the franchise visually, for doing all he could to make it as good as it can be under the circumstances (MR, Scummit), and I hope and pray that Bill Condon does an even better job on all accounts with BD!
RUN W/ VAMPS!<3 **SPARKLIN'**

THAT'S THE ATTITUDE !!!!!!!!! woo hoo jasper would be proud of your positive vibes ! YES ! : D
WildeNight(TeamGoldBed)

I am not a fan of M. Night. After seeing The Sixth Sense – being blown away and then watching Signs, The Village and Unbreakable and being unimpressed and in fact, guessing the endings before they occurred, I've decided to not assist in his box office sales. Sorry, Jackson. You rock. But I'll have to wait for you to come out via Netflix.
Randidoll~The Runways<3

haha I like to think Jasper would be very close alot of the time if where around haha
Just keeep being positive, my friend! We've got SOO much to look forward to! Laugh at the silly things!
twilight_addict / Twister Love

*gasps* Please, Stella, have mercy, tell me no more! I have not seen the other extended scenes and so am as of yet unaware of the true size of the tragedy! Why did Scummit do it?! And have no doubt, Scummit are the ones ultimately responsible for the editing. I freaking hate them! I want to see that scene…Edward and Bella teasing each other playfully…it is almost as if the film actually had something to do with the novel!
immortalbeloved01

This movie is definitely on my 'Must See' list!! It's sharing the same weekend as 'Eclipse' and my friend doesn't want to see 'Eclipse' until Sunday! So I guess I'll go with my dad and two sons to see this movie on Saturday! Looking forward to a busy movie weekend!! ; )
TeamTreeBanger

He also directed the Others, have you seen it? it's with Nichole Kidman. Twilight Saga is not Fantasy, it is supernatural, there is a difference unlike the Airbender that takes place in a world of make believe. Twilight takes place in the real world, Forks actually exists.

It deals with two very popular monsters vampires and werewolves. Two creatures that come from our own folklore. The famous Big Foot, all those illusive creatures, can be applied to the giant wolves of Forks.

In Breaking Dawn, is Bella's final journal to the supernatural, she becomes part of that world and has to fight against the last threat that stands to save her family.

Twilight,New Moon and Eclipse, were about Bella and Edward coarse Jacob.

Breaking Dawn is simply about Family

Condon is also a screen writer and there also saying that SM is helping so here is hoping that three heads are better than one.
TeamTreeBanger

Eragorn reminded me of a bad episode of Hercules or Xena.
TeamTreeBanger

wasn't that an April Fool's Joke?
Randidoll~The Runways<3

book or movie? haha because the book feels more like a Tolkien rip off than anything haha but I can see that for the movie haha
twilight_addict / Twister Love

I am sorry, but I must correct you- The Others was directed by Alejandro Amenabar, not Bill Condon.

True, the story is set in a real place, but the creatures within it are not real, they are creatures of fantasy (the imagination), that is what I was referring to in my comment.

Oh, and, by the way, I have actually read all four and a half books several times, so I know the subjects with which they deal- but you described it very well! So, thank you anyway! : )
