The Film are not very good adaptations of the books. They are, in a way. But the character traits just aren't there. The screenplay is the root of the problem. So, I am not at all surprised that New Moon is nominated for worst screenplay. I actually hope that New Moon wins for worst screenplay so Melissa Rosenburg knows everyone doesn't like how she writes the scripts. I mean, New Moon draft script wasn't as bad, but the final product that was the movie? the editing was bad and dialogue was rather terrible towards the end. It didn't resemble the feeling of the book o how Bella felt towards both Edward and Jacob's character. And the Eclipse draft script? that is a mess. Oh my goodness. So, yes. I'm not too fond of Melissa's writing. Which is weird since her other show, Dexter, has been nominated multiple times. Now, the Twilight Film are basically considered for teenage girls. I don't necessarily think they are, but teenage girls are the majority, so the media assumes. Also, Stephenie Meyer's libri are young adult, so I can understand why they would think so. Okay, well, saying Oscars... that's the big leagues. Taylor is not a good actor at all. His lines seem rehearsed. I don't feel him as the character. When an actor portrays the character, he becomes the character, but Taylor, I just saw him trying to act tough. I'm sorry. He just didn't do it for me. Kristen and Rob... they have some work to do. Kristen as Bella, needs some improving. So does Rob's Edward. However, I partially blame the script. Personally, if Melissa had established the characters better, epsecially Edward's, then maybe it wouldn't have been so bad. Movie Edward isn't Book Edward. The characters are rather different, and that's what most ~fans nowadays go off of. The movies. And, Anna Kendrick's Oscar Nomination isn't even for New Moon, so that fact isn't really significant. But, in the Razzie Award's defense, they also have some blockbuster films up there. Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen, which, da the way, I thought was horrible. The script, the dialogue, the timing/editing, the repetative sexual reference... such a disappointment. Yeah the special effects were great, but te can't really on digital effects to carry a movie. The movie has to have cuore and soul and it just wasn't there. So, even if te loved the movies, te shouldn't feel bad. There will always be criticism. If you're a fan of the Film and books, as am I, I always find several aspects of the films that I don't agree with o that I find rather indecent. :)
