TA TALKS BACK: NEW MOON TRAILER…FIRST THOUGHTS
We’ve all watched it numerous times by now. So, what did you think about the first NEW MOON trailer? Here’s my opinion…:
Like all the breathless TWILIGHT fans in the universe, my heart stopped cold when ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT released the first 14 seconds of the NEW MOON trailer. The overhead shot of Forks, those familiar moody chords, that old red Chevy driving up to the front of Bella’s house – I was ready for NEW MOON excitement. And, then, when Bella asks Edward to kiss her – and he complies in that sultry, sexy way – my stopped heart began fluttering uncontrollably. It was an exciting 14 seconds, to be sure.So what about the rest of the trailer that was unveiled at the MTV Movie Awards? Unfortunately, the excitement level and quality of the trailer didn’t match those first 14 seconds. There are several reasons why I feel this way and they run the gamut from acting to writing to directing.
