Twilight

So Carol and I went out to dinner last night to a place next to the local movie theater. I got off work early so we were there around 5:00pm. While walking past the movie theater, there were at least 50 girls camping out for tickets to something at the theater. Come to find out it was for that new vampire movie Twilight. Hmmm interesting. Then I go home and watch South Park which is spoofing Twilight, and then watch some weird clip on MTV where there are about 1,000 girls going bonkers over seeing a sneak preview of just the trailer of Twilight. Then this morning, the Wall Street Journal has a big preview of the movie.

What the hell is this all about? People going this crazy over vampires? Really?

The thing is, people have been going crazy over this thing for a while. It is a series of books that Beth and some of the other girls around here having been really into for several months now. All those people that read the books are now gaga for the movie. Of course, I'm sure once they see it they'll all be trashing the movie 'cause Hollywood will mangle it in the transformation from page to screen.
