Gessie OMG!!!This is the best news ever!!!I can't wait to see the cast list.


message 2: by Beya (new)

Beya Penn not aww!!!!!!!!!!


message 3: by [deleted user] (new)

It's going to be so fun, and action-packed. I wonder how they're going to do the double voices, because technically Melanie and Wanda are supposed to have the same voice.


message 4: by Rina (new)

Rina wow....
I just hope the movie scenes will live up to my expectation. The scenes I created in my head when reading it were really beautiful.


message 5: by Pamela (new)

Pamela Perkins I can't wait to see how it all comes together on the Big Screen! The book was great!


message 6: by J. (new)

J. OMG how exciting!! They'll have to work hard at capturing the character development. I don't think it worked out so great with E&B the first time around (I have much higher hopes from NM)

Jenny wow! that's got to be awesome!!! XD

message 17: by Aviva (new)

Aviva nohohohoho how can you do this to us??? it was such a good book!! Don't ruin it by making it into a movie like you did twilight!! I love the book, but movies always take over for the book!! UUUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHH


message 18: by Aviva (new)

Aviva THAT IS GOING TO SUCK! HOW ARE THEY GOING TO DO THAT!!!WHY DO YOU THINK THAT THEY WON'T MESS IT UP LIKE TWILIGHT???????


message 19: by Andrez (new)

Andrez actually, I just heard of Twilight because of the movie.If it hadnt been done, I would have not read a great saga, and then, The Host

Well, that's your personal opinion. I for one, would love to see it come to life, to live and breath. I didn't think the Twilight movie was so bad. Plus, she's got a pretty good director slated for this one. Can't you just be happy for Stephenie? That she accomplished this much with her series?

Napoda WOW!!!



message 24: by Teresa (new)

Teresa So excited for this one! I just finished reading it again!!!!!!


message 25: by Jill (new)

Jill I always enjoy seeing the books I read being brought to life on the big screen. I go into the movie not expecting it to be as good as the book, because they rarely are, but it is fun to see someone else's interpretation.
To the people who are mad about the movie being made, here's a tip: don't go see it! Like someone said above me, people find out about the book because they saw the movie and, if anything, it's really good advertising for the author! Yay, Stephenie! That is SO exciting!!!


message 26: by Heather (new)

Andrez Peter Facinelli?again?
I was kind of imagining someone like angelina jolie but not er, someone not as famous


message 28: by [deleted user] (new)

As long as it's not Megan Fox, I'll be cool with it.


message 29: by Syd シド (new)

  Syd シド ♫Just one of the wolves ♫ omg i gotta hurry up and read it then



message 30: by Andrez (new)

Andrez no, not megan fox.not with her eyes and her skin tone


message 31: by [deleted user] (new)

I was thinking more along the lines, that she's too popular, and she doesn't really appreciate a lot of things, and probably wouldn't appreciate the role. But okay, that works too.


message 32: by Andrez (new)

Andrez hmhm thats true


oıɔoɹ/rocio♥ THAT IS SO COOL!! but maybe it will kinda ruin the book... idk. i hope they do a great job!!

nt in Wanda's thoughts, tho.


message 35: by [deleted user] (new)

I guess they could make one in a lower tone than the other...


message 36: by Andrez (new)

Andrez maybe

Victoria If the movie version keeps getting better then I can't wait for the third one either. The secong movie was way better than the first one.
