November 20th, some of you out there have this date circled with hearts on your calendar. No, it's not your wedding date, Most likely, but in fact it is the opening night of New Moon, the next in the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer.
If you don't know what twilight is, it is a book about a girl who falls in love with a vampire. This sounds like a horror film where the vampire is stealthy and just trying to lure her away so he can drink her blood (Like most vampires would), but he actually loves her back.
I am not a ignorant hater of twilight, I've read all the books and I've seen the first movie like 4 times, I just don't like it enough to buy things like T-shirts or anything that costs more than 10 dollars.
A line has been drawn in the sand with this next movie... The team Edward VS. team Jacob rivalries will be at their worse. In the first few chapters of New Moon Edward leaves Bella "so he couldn't hurt her anymore" so she turns to her best friend Jacob for support.... but wait something is happening to him... something unnatural!
The reason for this overly long blog? Along with the movie coming there are also other products too. Like the Twilight board game, a limited edition trading card set with an official binder for $239, a book about the making of the movie (There was one just like it for the first movie) and last but not least.... Edward and Bella Barbie's. And yes the two barbies had a photo shoot.
I think this is going over the edge just a bit. I understand people like to buy collectibles, but this reminds me a lot of the Pokemon phase when I was younger. The stuff is mega expensive but looses it's value instead of growing in value.
I'm thinking of buying Ben Colburn one of the Edward dolls... and shaving it's head.
This is my thoughts, be sure to tune in for my next blog.
Topic? You'll just have to wait and see.
