		<description>This is ridiculous! Stephenie Meyer has very little say about what goes on in the movies! I don&#039;t care if it&#039;s split into two movies or not, but I&#039;ve just read that someone here has given up on Stephenie Meyer because she&#039;s done nothing to make th emovies more like the books! She can&#039;t help that. The writers of books that have been turned into films don&#039;t usually have much of a say in what goes on in them.</description>

		<description>its annoying isn&#039;t it, anyone who isn&#039;t a Twilight fan should shut his mouth instead of mouthing meaningless stuff about it, i do think the book is goin to be split into two movies though, for one thing that its too long to be fitted into two hours or anything near that, if they could make it into one movie without ignoring important events, then its cool, that will save me months of count-downs and waiting =]</description>

		<description>That they are focusing on the action is disappointing, if that is what they are going for.  What I find everyone talking about is the dependability of the men of Twilight. Men in our media these days are portrayed as pimps.  Not stable, very selfish and only in it for what they can get.  And frankly women are portrayed much the same way.  In Twilight we get men who once they love, they are willing to do whatever is necessary for that relationship. The level of sacrifice demonstrated by our beloved vampires and werewolves of Forks, Wa  are what draw women to these books. Here we find men willing to do what it takes, easy or hard just because they love that person.  You don&#039;t find that celebrated in too many other things and in bringing these stories to the movie screen I think Summit has missed a real opportunity to give us something we don&#039;t get normally.  There are plenty of movies with good fight scenes.  There aren&#039;t many with a dedicated love story where you&#039;d actually trust the guy to stick around.</description>

		<description>Wendilynn: Right on! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think sites like this one need to use their voice (say in a post) to ask for Melissa to, at the very least, get help with BD. Explain what we want to see (less fight stuff, more love, more dialogue), and how this will benefit fans, herself, Summit, etc. How they&#039;ve missed what we&#039;ve wanted all along, is beyond me. All they had to do was hire someone to research what parts of the books fans are discussing on forums. What&#039;s being discussed the most, in a postive way, needs to be what&#039;s written in the script played out. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;ve been on many forums and it&#039;s the love, the intimacy, the conversations, etc., that are being discussed. The fights - hardly AT ALL. And, it&#039;s clearly obvious that teenage - older adult women who are the biggest fan base and who are going into the theaters time and time again. Who cares about pleasing men. They either like it, or come along with their girlfriends just to be nice. CGI is nice and having good fight scenes are nice, to a point. Obviously, I want to see good CGI.  But, over-playing the Bella-Jacob-Edward love triangle and focusing so MUCH on the fights, which I hear, from cast, that that&#039;s what Eclipse is all about, is betraying fans. It&#039;s just not what the majority of fans want to see. Bottom line. It&#039;s become about what Melissa wants to see. It&#039;s become HER story. Not Meyer&#039;s. Honestly, I can&#039;t even see how Meyer is pleased at all. Unless she&#039;s a simple person just happy to see her story made onto the big screen, whether it&#039;s well done or not.</description>

		<description>Yeah, that part of the article that you posted  was pretty much just the author comparing Stephenie Meyer to JK. Rowling. Both authors are great but wrote totally different stories, it&#039;s like comparing apples to oranges! And then to bring the two author&#039;s religion into it, that was just low, even for (what is this guy?) a tabloid writer!</description>
