Twilight Phenomenon and soundtracks

I love watching movie but will never watch it twice no matter how good it is. However, this movie has broken my record and I've watced it 2 times and want to go for the 3rd time!

The movie is Twilight.

I've no idea what "Twilight" was. All I knew was my husband and I wanted to watch "Bolt" but sadly, it was no longer showing so we've to settle for something called "Twilight". Both of us were clueless, didn't anticipate much and keep our fingers cross that it better be something good. We just hoped that it's not any scary movie or anything like "scary movie" or else will waste our $10.50.

After sat inside the cinema for 2hours watching this 95% romance and 5% action packed movie, fall in love with this movie. Well undeniably, I like the pale-white vampire, Edward, the exotic beauty, Bella and the romanitc, yet, forbidden story between them. Hmm... I like the movie! :D

After watching this movie, I wanted to find out more about the movie and the soundtracks. So, I google "Twilight".

To my surprise, Twilight has created such a phenomemon in US, or should say worldwide! It has such a big fan base that can compare to Harry Potter or much more. The vampire Edward has captured so many young and old girls' hearts!

And never did I know that the pheonmenon happened in Singapore too! My sis & I have witnessed the Twilight Phenomenon at Orchard Ceinleisure and we will never forget what happened.

1st Pheonmenon:
When Edward made his 1st appearance in the movie, the girls in the cinema SCREAMED! YES, THEY SCREAMED, giggled and talked among themsevles "Oh my gosh, he is so handsome!"

I whispered to my sis "Wow... oh my gosh... Have you ever seen such things in cinema before?! I have never seen or heard such things in AMK Hub cinema!? "

"Neither do I", My sis replied.

2nd Pheonmenon:
The 2nd wave of screaming and gigglings from the cinema was much louder than the 1st one. Well, can't blame them as Edward and Bella kissed for the very first time. Screaming, "Oh my god" are in the air ...

( My sis and i were trying to enjoy the romantic kissing scene but then the screming and "OMG" are simply too overwhelming in the cinema! We ended up laughing.)

There're many rounds of screaming and "Oh-my-god" through out the entire movie. But there's a guy/boy that made me go OMG.

3rd Pheonmenon:
He SCREAMED and curved himself in a ball when Edward was fighting with James in the ballet studio. His action really amazed me... Come on, the fighting scene was a far cry from those action packed movie like Jackie Chan / James Bond's one. So I couldn't understand why he looked so scared!

4th Pheonmenon:
Well, sounds like the success of Twilight goes to the handsome pale white Vampire Edward and exotic beauty Bella, huh? Nah, the soundtracks of this movie are thumbs up!

My personal fav - "Bella's lullaby" by Cater Burwell.

The music slowed, transforming into something softer. The music grew unbearably sweet or sad.

Enjoy ~



Ther is another version of Bella's lullaby. Just as soothing as the official one.



Another song from Twilight. If you have watched the movie, this song, "Flightless Bird" is played when Edward and Bella are dancing on the Prom Night.



Perhaps I should wait for the DVD instead of watching it in cinema just in case some aunties screaming next to me.
