If you look at the least effective of the 'Twilight' movies, it was when they brought in an action-movie director instead of a director who was really a good storyteller. And you can tell the difference.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It does not matter what film you're making. If you're young and there's romance in the movie, it's compared to 'Twilight'.
When we were filming 'Twilight,' we didn't expect anything. We were just filming a movie that we wanted the fans to enjoy. And then it kinda just blew into this whole other world.
Actors strive to be part of something like 'Twilight' and what 'Twilight' is, is unbelievable.
'Twilight' is very different to the 'Vampire Academy,' completely.
I think the success of the 'Twilight' movies, not just the books, comes down to Stephenie Meyer.
I like the 'Twilight' films.
The 'Twilight' movies are great in their own right, but they certainly don't have any sense of humor to them.
Obviously, 'Twilight' had its own alchemy that was amazing, just phenomenal. Nobody thought it was going to make any money. Paramount wouldn't make the movie. Fox wouldn't make it. Nobody wanted to do it.
So what 'Twilight' does is show how women/girls can drive box office and they can support a tent pole movie. They're an extremely passionate fan base. This coincided with the 13 year old boys starting to stay home and play video games and work on their home media stuff. They're no longer going to theaters in droves.
To be completely honest, I didn't know 'Twilight' was a book.
