Errors Spotted on The Twilight Saga: New Moon

Chillax, every movie has 'em

The Twilight Saga: New Moon isn't perfect, as most of you are probably already aware. Some hate it, some love it but me? I'm somewhere in the middle. It's cheesy, yes, but I can tolerate cheesy. There was much talking, well so was the book. Kristen Stewart was awful; she always is as Bella. Edward was soooo white; so were the other vamps. Victoria was AWESOME; her shots in the forest was probably the best thing out of the whole movie. And Jacob, well Jacob, he was uber hot. Even though I didn't love the movie, there are plenty who did. Here in Indonesia, for example, getting the tickets was really hard, it was ridiculous. The line twists and turns all the way to be back. Crazy, crazy, crazy. I even had to watch it in a sort of crappy cinema (wait, it WAS crappy. The sound died off twice for like... 5 freaking minutes. That's a long time, peeps. A long time). Even though the movie is obtaining much love, many fans have spotted errors in the movie. Man, when will the Twi-hards ever be satisfied?

Errors spotted by fans:
  • In the montage scenes where we see Bella's depression, when the camera is circling her, the camera man is shown in the mirror (twice) behind her.
  • The rims of the vampires contacts can be spotted occasionally during the film, especially the Volturi's during the ending scenes — e.g., Jane's in the elevator.
  • Continuity: When Alice jumps over the staircase in school to wish Bella happy birthday, between shots during the scene the positioning of the decorated scarf around her neck varies.
  • Visible crew/equipment: In the very last scene, right before the ultimatum, if you look into the tail lights on Edward's car you can see various members of the crew reflected.
If you're interested to read more (there are 22 and still counting), head over to Movie Mistakes to see the full list. I didn't spot these mistakes in the movie. Maybe I was too busy getting pissed at the workers for such negligence. But anyway, I don't really care. Every movie has mistakes. It can't be perfect. I'll try to spot them, yes, when I watch it again on DVD. But I'm not counting.

A Twilight Fix

"She knows too much."

For all those rabid Twilight fans out there, here's a short clip from the movie featuring several ridiculous looking Volturis, the obsessive Bella and the emo Edward.




You know, I used to love Twilight. I went crazy looking for the books in Indonesia back when nobody knew about it. And then suddenly it blew up! And then suddenly it lost it appeal. Just like that. The fandom is rather prejudiced, and in retrospect, the books are not that great. After the first book in the saga, Twilight, everything just went downhill (hello, Breaking Dawn was a trainwreck!). The first Twilight movie was exciting to watch the first time around, but not anymore. I've lost my liking for Kristin Stewart (she's a snobby and uptight celebrity), and the acting of the other casts are just ... blah. I mean c'mon, you saw Michael Sheen portraying Aro just then, seriously, look at his face. Ridiculous.

I'll still be watching The Twilight Sage: New Moon though. I might as well see it to the end.
