Thrilling Thursday...I'm Thrilled About Twilight

Today I feel like I live in Forks, another rainy day. I do believe we have only had sunshine one or two days in the past week. I have been chatting with others who are Twilight fans and I decided what a great topic to blog about. So, who else is thrilled and excited about the upcoming release of the third movie in the Twilight series "Eclipse". For those of you who are not familiar, here's what you've been missing;

Synopsis: As Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge, Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob — knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation quickly approaching, Bella has one more decision to make: life or death.

On June 30th, theatres around the world will be swarmed with Twilight fans. Some theatres have started pre-selling tickets and are sold out. Twilight grossed $70.6 million dollars in its first week on the big screen while New Moon grossed $140.7 million in its first week. The hype is that Eclipse will break the record of $158.4 million dollars (currently held by Dark Knight) when it opens at the end of June.

Now, the buzz these days is the burning question; Are Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart engaged? According to Kristen's twitter on April 19th, yes they are: "To answer everyones question. Yes. I am getting married :) I'm so happy. I love you Rob." Kristen has also taken to twittering about her Acai Berry diet she is on to be able to fit into her wedding dress. Now I ask you, does Kristen really need to lose weight? She has reportedly lost 16lbs thus far. Where it was in the first place is a mystery to me.


I also thought we could have some fun. There is always the debate of who is better; better looking, better for Bella etc. So, I ask you who do you think is better.... Jacob or Edward? But I also want to know why you chose whoever you chose.

In my opinion, I choose Edward. It is not because he is better looking (personally I think Taylor Lautner has one up in that department, haha), but I love the quiet, mysterious air that surrounds Edward and his constant struggle with trying to be a better person; always thinking he's not good enough to deserve love, life and happiness is a humble quality that adds to the sexiness of this character.

Give it to me, tell me what you really think ;D Just post your vote in the comments section and remember, this always gives you an entry into my giveaway.
