Caru What did you think of the trailer? Are you excited for it to come out?


message 2: by [deleted user] (new)

The trailer looked really bad :/ Nothing like the book.
I don't like the casting either...


message 3: by Caru (new)

Caru I've never read the book but the trailer looked bad


message 4: by [deleted user] (new)

I saw the trailer first too XD And I didnt want to read it after, but I was forced to...And it was actually pretty good! The spinoff series, Bloodlines, is even better IMO

Caru I got the book from the library so I'll probably start reading it next month

Tachi I don't like the casting, especially the actresses for Rose and Lissa. Zoey just isn't how I expected Rose to look like. At all. The trailer makes the movie look like it'll be your average high school movie, which isn't a good thing.

Jennifer | 551 comments I'm trying to read the books before the movie comes out. The trailers I've seen weren't award-winning, but I'm interested enough that I will see the movie.

But I think Gabby's right about another high school movie. It reminded me of all those CW/ABC Family previews that come on TV. Pretty Little Liars, Vampire Diaries, etc. And I don't watch those shows.

Tachi Did they move up the release date for the movie by a week? When i first saw the poster, it said the fourteenth, but the trailer on the tv said the seventh.


message 9: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 551 comments @Gabby Same here. I thought the earlier commercials said Valentine's Day, but IMDB is saying the 7th.


message 10: by Tachi (new)

Tachi @Jennifer Apparently they moved it up. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing:/


message 11: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 551 comments I know it literally just came out, but I was wondering if anyone has seen the movie yet?


message 12: by Tachi (new)

Tachi I haven't. I'm afraid to, after seeing so many bad reviews. I read one that said that it was worse than Mean Girls. The Lego movie has made a lot more than VA did.


message 13: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 551 comments Oh no. I haven't read any reviews. That Lego movie looks terrible. That does not bode well for VA.


message 14: by Tachi (new)

Tachi It doesn't, indeed. I don't know who I should see it with. That racy scene in the voice would probably give the people I go with try wrong idea about the whole entire movie. Maybe I'll watch it at home when it comes out on DVD.


message 15: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 551 comments Part of me thinks the movie is a DVD movie (not worth the $10 to see in theatre) but I don't want to wait that long. Conundrum.


message 16: by Tachi (new)

Tachi It's always expensive to go to the movies. *mumbles* Eight bucks for popcorn, plus drinks and the eight buck tickets.
As a fan, I feel guilty since I'm trying to not watch the movie so soon.


message 17: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 551 comments Exactly. I want to support the franchise (or at least the book) by seeing the movie, but I still don't know if I want to see the movie.

the trailer was like really sad ..... coz it looked like a spoof of VA... :(
i was hoping for lissa to look better... the way they describe her in the book ....." DROP DEAD GORGEOUS "
in the movie she is "CRAZY LUNATIC..."
and MIA seriously????? she looks like a sociopath (even though she kinda is....)!
i thought they cud have chose better cast....
i havnt watched the movie yet so i donno weather it is up to the mark like the book... I LOVED THE BOOK AND I WISH THEY HAVE DONE JUSTICE TO THE STORY..


message 19: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer | 551 comments The movie comes out to DVD on May 20th.


message 20: by Audrey (new)

Audrey (audreybooklover) I really liked the book. I have not seen the movie, but I saw the trailer for it and that was good enough for me. It looked horrible it looks like a chick flick vampire stupid movie and the actors were not to my taste.
