One more Twilight Tuesday on the success of the film:

CH is such a passionate and energetic person. I really like her.
I like her too…wish she could lend her directing chops to some of the men on the E/B relationship in the other chapters of the saga…so far, she’s the only that got it right, even though Twilight, the movie, left out a lot of the funny stuff…get rid of MR.
