		<description>I hope the people at Summit know what they are doing by making Chris Weitz the director.  He may not do as good of a job keeping the female fans happy.  If he and Summit are smart, they will have some women helping him with directing, etc.</description>

		<description>I am disappointed that a woman is not directing the New Moon.  I agree that Hardwicke may have not been the best director, particularly since she talked too much through the special features and she overlooked a few things:  1) the camera lights that were seen on the side of the truck in the dark (there were no street lights to provide lights to the side of the truck); 2) the fact that Bella&#039;s dad was home and didn&#039;t wake up from the noise that Edward made from restraining himself from Bella in her bedroom (her father should have been working late or had some sort of excuse that would explain why he didn&#039;t investigate the noise Edward made when he slammed himself against Bella&#039;s wall/door); 3) the fact that Emmit was eathing when he shouldn&#039;t have been in the lunch room; and 4) Edward said he had been visiting/watching Bella sleep for the past couple of months, yet she started school March. It would seem a more realistic timeframe would be &quot;a little over a month.&quot;

My biggest worry is that this new director will overlook the little things like the wolf picture watching over Bella in her bedroom or the fact that the Cullens wear what appears to be their family crest as either a wrist band on the right hand for the guys and necklaces for the girls.  I also hope Edward&#039;s hairstyle doesn&#039;t drastically change.  Even though Rob Pattinson doesn&#039;t care for the particular hairstyle, he looks really good in it.  I understand the new director will want to make changes, but I hope he doesn&#039;t make drastic changes like Edward no longer wears his wrist band without explaining why.  Hopefully, he&#039;ll have the Cullens use the same wrist band and necklace props as well.</description>

		<description>Hardwicke has done some good stuff but I&#039;m not sure she&#039;s right for this genre.  I really like the idea of Taymore directing the next one bc I love the two films mentioned in the article.  Niki Caro&#039;s upcoming &quot;The Vintner&#039;s Luck&quot; looks extremely promising so I may change my opinion once I see that.
And I will admit my comments are made on hearsay of Twilight, as it did not actually appeal to me.  However I have heard mediocre response from the all the half dozen people I&#039;ve talked to.</description>

		<description>I think Alejandro Agresti would be a good choice. He directed &quot;The Lake House&quot;. so he has some experience with working on a surreal love story and at the same time making it look romantic at the same time.</description>

		<description>I think catherine was a good director, and she did a good job, but it COULD have been better. I&#039;m really glad they&#039;re going to have a new writer as well. The only thing now, is that they&#039;re going to be trying to &quot;make-up for&quot; in NEW MOON what they didn&#039;t have in TWILIGHT. And I feel that the main thing they didn&#039;t have in TWILIGHT was the bond between edward and bella; them falling in love, it was too silent, quick, not strong enough. Cause that was really the most crucial part. And it&#039;s going to be extremely difficult to make-up for that in NEW MOON, when Edward isn&#039;t even in the majority of it. I hope they can think of something! Can&#039;t wait!
And hey? Does it have to be a female director?</description>

		<description>Last night I watched Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.  I had seen it  before but it is the first time I watched it since Rob Pattinson appeared in Twilight.  Rob was so good and natural in that movie as Cedric Diggory.  But in Twilight he seemed awkward and forced.  That just goes to show me that it isn&#039;t because Rob can&#039;t act...it is obviously because of a bad script (replace the screen writer) and bad direction (replace the director).  I have also been to the Summit Entertainment website trying desperately to find an e-mail address or phone number so that I could call and try to voice my opinion that I think New Moon needs a bigger budget and a new director but I can&#039;t find any contact information for the company.  If anyone knows of suck information could they post it here?</description>

		<description>I disagree with Joss Whedon and Alphoso Cuaron even touching New Mooncompletely.  I still can&#039;t watch Prisoner of Azkaban because it was so badly done, Alphonso killed major plot points of the story and added a bunch of crap that didn&#039;t need to be in there.  I shudder to think how his heavy hand and silly editing transitions would ruin New Moon.  And apparently I&#039;m the only one who thinks that Buffy was predictable and boring.  I only read Twilight in the first place because my daughter convinced me that it wasn&#039;t your typical vampire story.  And she was so right.  Buffy was terrible. Anything &quot;alternative&quot; or &quot;sub culture&quot; was added to Buffy and the additions came predictably.  Twilight has a life of its own that separates it from the typical vampire genre and I wouldn&#039;t trust either of those two with it.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not too worried about changing directors. What worries me is that this means they are going to give New Moon a low budget which means another cheesy movie.  Twilight fans sunk alot of money into the first one to make sure New Moon would be made right with a real budget and it looks like they plan on biting the hands that fed them.</description>

i totally agree
i, for one, am not going to see the twilight sequels if she doesn&#039;t direct them. even if it kills me! i agree with &quot;Clara&quot; as well. Catherine should NOT be replaced, she needs to come back
she knows what the fans want. she has family that loves this book too, i&#039;m sure, so she has an insider&#039;s scoop on the fandom as well! i went to see Twilight and i thought it rocked!</description>

		<description>JOSS WHEDON!  All the way!  I don&#039;t agree that a female should have to do this movie... Joss Whedon made incredible stories of love and longing on his tv shows and has experience with action scenes and creating wonderful characters... these characters already ARE wonderful but the movie didn&#039;t show that off very well.  I think Joss would be GREAT for New Moon.  Plus, Stephenie Meyer is a fan of his  ;-)</description>

		<description>Any body who can direct an epic love story such as New moon.

It doesnt have to be women.
Some of the most moving love stories were by men.

		<description>i chose none, why does it always come down to female directors for us to choose from. Some of the most epic love stories were made from Male directors, Baz Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge + Romeo and Juliet), Joe Wright (Atonement) and maybe even Alfonso Cuarón who i love for including the natural elements as a secondary character. To me i don&#039;t care who they choose, the only thing that really concerns me is the final product of New Moon. Would it be worth watching or would it be something like Twilight with bad camera angles, horrible script and bad editing. i loved Catherine&#039;s work for the movie Thirteen but she definitely disappointed me with Twilight.</description>

		<description>I could not agree more with this article.  I am 31 years old, but am a huge fan of the Twilight book series.  When I got out of seeing this movie I was utterly disappointed.  I understand that they didn&#039;t have a big budget on this first film...but it was just horrible.  I thought the acting was poor but I think it had more to do with bad directing then rather with actors who couldn&#039;t act.  I also thought the special effects were bad and the story was just butchered.  If you didn&#039;t read the book and just went to see the movie I don&#039;t think you would know what the heck was going on.  I think that Catherine is the wrong choice.  These books are huge and should of had a big movie like Harry Potter.  Instead it had the feel of a cheap 80&#039;s horror movie.</description>

		<description>NO NOT hardwicke!!
REPLACE HER!!!!
All i saw was the color GREEN.....
She has a creative mind but it just doesn&#039;t work in the twilight saga,,,she rushed everything..the scriptwriter should not be blamed though,,but i guess she has a part of it...but it&#039;s hardwicke&#039;s work to clear all that..

men,,, i hope New Moon will be WAAAAAY better than twilight,,
EVERYONE GOT DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!
Stephenie&#039;s books are so touching but I can&#039;t feel it in Hardwicke&#039;s interpretation..
so if you&#039;re wise you&#039;ll replace her..
darn...</description>

		<description>MIRA NAIR! if she was asked to do harry potter and actually did across the universe then PLEASE make her do new moon and make this movie better! the cant possibly allow this series to follow thru like this. its an AMAZING series. i read them each about 4 times. please stick to the passion, romance and commitment. 
if catherine keeps going then she must change a lot of things and deffinately improve color (no more grey, black blood, and dull colors). the only color i saw was the green from the trees. not even her &quot;purple&quot; bed. 

and no they dont have fangs.</description>

		<description>I agree that Hardwicke should be replaced.  It&#039;s like she didn&#039;t understand the book at all and was trying to do a bigger budget Buffy episode.  But I don&#039;t think any of the above women are right--my choice is Mary Harron.  She has right edge (American Psycho) and delves deep into character, something Twilight was completely lacking.</description>

		<description>I loved twilight, but it just seemed to short for me. I mean Catherine did a good job, but i wish that they stuck more to the book. I&#039;m down for her to direct New Moon. She probably has a better understanding of what the fans expect so she&#039;s prepared.</description>

		<description>first let me say, i am reading the series for the 2nd time. i only discovered the book series 2 weeks before the movie Twilight was on the big screen.. i know, where the hell have i been, right? lucky me though! i didnt have to fret for long!!
i have been obsessed from book one. 
i am so excited it was even made into a movie... im a movie/ tv addict.
reading hasnt ever been my fav. past time. ruined by forced novels during my high school years.
after picking up twilight, recommended, no.. demanded, by a friend, i couldnt put it down! i think i love reading again! if it werent for stephenie meyers, i wouldnt know what i have been missing! i have the sudden urge to find a copy of wuthering heights, having no clue to the story being referenced in her books. 
anyway, we all love stephenie &amp; i got carried away:) lol
i wanna talk about the movie now.
i agree completely with most of the complaints! not enough love/ tooo much action for this romeo &amp; juliet story! waisting time adding new scenes of nomad killings, rather than focusing on Edward &amp; Bella, there love/ death relationship, and the many lost scenes of struggle and passion! so much was left untouched. There truely isnt enough justice in the film. i believe it speaks to the talented &amp; gifted stephenie, who graced us with her imagination! we should ease up on the cast &amp; crew! spend the money, the films will only get better! 

i hope that there will be flashback scenes in new moon to make up for the loss of character/ relationship development. or an extended version twilight dvd!! who knows..</description>

They do not have fangs.  

Page 218 Eclipse:  The conversation is between Bella and Jacob.

&quot;Well...I was wondering...do you...y&#039;know, kiss him?&quot;

I laughed. &quot;Yes.&quot;

He shuddered. &quot;Ugh.&quot;

&quot;To each her own,&quot; I murmured.

&quot;You don&#039;t worry about the fangs?&quot;

I smacked his arm, splashing him with dishwater. &quot;Shut up, Jacob! You know he doesn&#039;t have fangs!&quot;</description>

		<description>Please no Hardwicke! Hardwicke wants to make an action movie, Twilight is a love story first, action film second! I disagree with the notion that next Twilight film needs to be directed by a woman. It just needs a great director period.</description>

		<description>Well i agree that the problem was that it was boring in some part of the movie... i actually can hear the stomach of the person behind me rumbling.... that was in some LAME parts of the movie..... i also hope that bella would be a little more LESS- vampire yet.... it&#039;s weird really... she&#039;s more of a vampire than Alice.... even if she&#039;s a new face it&#039;s not an excuse to be .... uhm... boring i guess?? get a life Kristen... i mean just even look at her pictures... no offense but she is so serious, i can mistake her for a statue.... beautiful statue to be honest... i still want her on new moon cause i think it&#039;ll spoil the movie if she&#039;d be replaced.. just hope she&#039;d act more BELLA next time... and i hope Edward can lead her next time... about the director... well it&#039;s like harry potter 3.... no colors..... get it?? compare HP1&amp;2 by Cris C, in direction... It was beyond better that Jay Leno&#039;s.... IT&#039;S TRUE JAY, GET OVER IT&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;.....&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;</description>

		<description>everyone should know that movies arent suppose to be made exactly like the books
everyone should just be happy that they even made a movie, sure there might have been things missing but it doesnt matter, for such a low budget movie catherine did a good job, plus it was the first movie of many to come the next ones will be better take harry potter for example their first movie wasnt all that great but over the years it has gotten better</description>

i agree
maybe joss and catherine should work together cuz i loved the work that catherine did in twilight but for the next movie if they also got joss it would be great since he did do 7 seasons of great buffy episodes.</description>
