So the other day I sat Matt down on the couch and snuggled up for a movie. Then I told him it would be Twilight. Which I knew he wasn’t too excited about, but I decided to pretty much make him watch it. SinceI had already seen it in the movie theaters.
I have never read the books, but I do have copies laying around the house from friends and family. I thought I would have time to read them, but I am just too busy with the kids and work. :)
After we ended up watching the movie, Matt was pretty happy. I’m pretty sure he liked it after he tweeted:
Now we aren’t any of those really huge fans, but Matt loves fantasy movies and I love romances, so it was a decent middle ground movie for us both.
One of the moments I love most about the movie is when Bella sees Edward for the 1st time. I got goose bumps! (I still remember that moment when I saw Matt for the 1st time. :) )

Christina LeMarr: Ok I loved Twilight. There is something about it that just reels you in...The books are sooooo much better! You have to read them! You will get sucked in! My husband watched it with me the other day, I think he liked it too but wasn't too wordy about it. (26/03/09, 02:55)
Ashley: I love this movie and my husband actually really likes it too! So tell Matt he's not alone! (26/03/09, 02:58)
Lyndzee of EP: OOOOH Matt,, I can't believe you liked it?!!? That is awesome. Angie,, if you liked the movie then you'll LOVE the book. I've read the series 5 times (even sitting on the toilet) but don't tell anyone!! The movie in comparison to the book is like The Smurfs to Thundercats,,,, no justice!! READ THEM!! (26/03/09, 03:19)
Jamie Burnett: I have read all the books, and can't wait to see the movie!!!! (26/03/09, 03:29)
Beka: Brandon was so excited to see that Matt liked the movie and that he is not alone in the "guys who like Twilight" club. That is one of my favorite scenes too, serious goosebumps the first time I saw it. The other scene I love is when Edward saves her from those bad guys in the dark alley and pulls up in that rad car. Seriously so hot! LOL! (26/03/09, 03:37)
chenin: lol! I keep trying to convince Doug to watch it with me by telling him that Matt liked it. So now Matt owes Doug 2 hours of his life back ;) (26/03/09, 04:08)
Matt Sloan: @chenin haha! tell Doug i know owe him a mandate for his troubles! LOL! (26/03/09, 04:37)
Matt Sloan: @lyndzee i am going to now read the book, but the problem is i don't like my own stink, so i will read it while driving my car or riding in an elevator! (26/03/09, 04:38)
Jessica Robins: the books are way, way better. i've been listening to them on CD (for freezies from the library) while i edit photos. i'm picking up the third one tonight! (26/03/09, 05:04)
Chevy: The book was WAY better than the movie.. I really wish they would have stuck with the book and just made the movie 5 hours long. lmbo I am glad that both of you liked it.. Rob was okay with it. He think that Kristin Stewart is horrible. lOl (26/03/09, 06:51)
Meg: Angie! If you love that moment in the movie you must must must read the book- it's about 20 times better. (27/03/09, 09:23)
Heather Kincaid: So you have to read the books! The part where Bella sees Edward for the first time is so much better than the movie! Oh... and the meadow scene.... you have to read the books. :-) (01/04/09, 01:42)
