What fresh hell is this?

[yendi]

First, I find myself with a nasty case of insomnia.

Then I discover that the New Moon trailer has hit the internet, and, fueled by the usual bad judgement associated with lack of sleep, I watched every poorly-acted emo moment of it.

They say shared pain is lessened. I can't share my insomnia, but I can share the trailer:

Have you seen this ()? A comic that tells twilight that Buffy did it first?
the comic is Hijinks Ensue.

Sorry.

Hee! Thanks!

Drowns in the flood of emo..

I'm almost sorry I missed the first one :)

But where was the sparkly bit?

[yendi]

They can't give you everything in the preview -- they're saving the sparkly stuff for the movie itself.

Wow. That was, like, somebody spliced together the worst parts of Smallville. And at the end? That's a rather fuzzy and cute werewolf.

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

Ah, so you would be Team Jacob?

[auryn29a.livejournal.com]

I don't even know who Jacob is.

[emilytheslayer.livejournal.com]

I figured, I was just teasin'. Jacob is the cute and cuddly werewolf. Although as someone pointed out elsewhere, the book weres don't turn into like, man/wolf hybrids, they just turn into normal wolves, so there's that.

I just meant, I gather that display was supposed to be his way of saying, "Grr, get away from my potential girlfriend!" But I just wanna pet him. So it kinda failed. But I guess this is the My Little Pony of supernatural romance stories, so it fits.

See, now you're getting it! If you want to cuddle the monster, they're doing it right!

But I guess this is the My Little Pony of supernatural romance stories

That's quite possibly the best summary of the series I've seen.

FURSPLOSION! Fuck yes New Moon!

DAMMIT YOU STOLE MY LINE

We can enjoy it ironically together, from the safety of a laptop.

I was also hit by insomnia last night :-/
On the other hand, I also watched the MTV Movie Awards specifically to see said trailer...I got sucked into the Twilight craze unintentionally by buying the first two books to see what the hell the big fuss was about!

[sistermaryeris.livejournal.com]

Oh lord. That looks even worse than the first one.

[blitheandbonny.livejournal.com]

Not enough wine in ALL THE WORLD. And yet, I'm probably going to see it anyway. Not in a theater, of course, because they won't let me drink there.

[lootsfoz.livejournal.com]

The movie has the potential to "seem" better if you can come up with a good drinking game for it.

I actually fell asleep the second time I watched Twilight. I drifted off somewhere after Bella and Edward went public as a couple and came to as the credits rolled.

I found the "Twilight" novel to be an almost miraculous cure for my insomnia- just 3-5 pages, and I was asleep! Really, this is true.
