This is one of the best movie tribute photo books I've seen, chock full of photos and great insider info from planning to filming to editing of this book series internet phenominom being brought to film! There is far more than photography here but the photos are wonderful as well. My new favorite is the beach scenes I haven't seen anywhere else online so far. this is a must-buy or gift collector book even for non-twilight fans because the movie, book, and internet frenzy have made history already!Show Less

Absolutely Terrible!!!
The problem with Twilight for me is that she is so overly dramatic in her writing. Her characters are inconsistent and the plot is transparent. Some of it might have to do with the age of the reader. I'm mid 20s and it is hard for me to read. Sometimes is just fun to no...Read More
The problem with Twilight for me is that she is so overly dramatic in her writing. Her characters are inconsistent and the plot is transparent. Some of it might have to do with the age of the reader. I'm mid 20s and it is hard for me to read. Sometimes is just fun to not have to think too hard and lose yourself in a fantasy, but even on that level I cannot connect to Twilight. In all honesty, Meyer is not the best writer and she delivers completely laughable dialogue. It's not the worse book out there it's just that there are thousands of better ones. I would suggest saving your time and money on this one, leave it to the audience it can actually entertain, 13 year old girls.Show Less

Excellent Book & Stunning Photographs!
I received my copy today, and it was such easy and fun reading that I did not put it down till I had read every page and seen every picture in it! With the "Twilight" movie being exactly 5 weeks away, this book is the perfect antidote to all the antsiness fans like me are feeling now. I can't wait to finally see the movie!
The book, aside from containing numerous color, stunning, glossy photographs of both movie stills and production pictures, provides insightful interviews with the creative forces behind the making of the movie - the producers (Greg Mooradian, Karen Rosenfeld, Wyck Godfrey), the sublimely talented director, Catherine Hardwicke, the stunt director, Andy Cheng, to name but a few. To be able to read their firsthand accounts of the process that went into bringing "Twilight" to the big screen is to take the journey with them, to feel their anxiety, their elation and their pride. To have some of the visual effects explained is to enhance your appreciation of the technical aspects of filmmaking too.
Through the photographs, we are given a good number of windows into the film, and the vision in our minds of how certain scenes will be played out is more real now. In my opinion, it only serves to excite audiences more, to draw them in ever closer to seeing the film. Mark Cotta Vaz's writing is clear and easy to navigate, and overall, the book's presentation is pure eye candy for every Twilight fan.
Bring it home, put your feet up on a chair, and enjoy!7 out of 8 people found this review helpful.

Twilight Movie Fans...
This book is just utterly and completely breathtaking. Every page brings something new and exciting. I loved flipping through, and enjoyed every single picture, which was just so clear and gripping that I could hardly take my eyes off...

Twilight
WOW! This book was incredible! About two weeks ago, all of my friends wanted me to read twilight. I thought to myself, woww a book about vampires? Why on earth would i want to read that? But then I started reading three nights ago and couldn't stop! It was sooo good! I am waiting very unpatiently for the next book, New Moon! :)

Must have for 'Twilight' fans
This book is filled with beautiful pictures and there is A LOT of information on how the movie was made. More than I expected and definitely worth the price.

Fun to read
This book was purchased as a Christmas gift for my son who has read the twilight series and has seen the movie. He was delighted to receive it and I'm glad I bought it for him. The following is his actual review of the book:
The photography in the book was visually pleasing. The behind the scenes movie information was interesting, and it shed light on elements of the movie that I had overlooked which made the movie experience more enjoyable. I recommend this book to all twilight fans.2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

Awesome Pictures
This book is worth it just for the pictures. Perfect for anyone who LOVES the movie, especially since it isn't on DVD yet. I enjoy looking through it and replaying the movie in my mind... that maybe a little wierd but thats how I roll.

A must have for twilight fans!
I love the twilight series and I loved the movie as well when I saw it and so I had to get the movie companion book. There are very good shots from the movie in the book and interesting information about the production of the movie as well. It is a must have for every twilight fan!

Twilight: Movie
This book is perfect for any Twilight fan! It has amazing behind the scenes information and even pictures that you wouldn't normally find anywhere unless you really did some digging on a google search. It has family descriptions, characters backgrounds, and the ideas that were used when creating the movie. It tells you how the book was brought to life. I must say tho, I counted at least 27 things wrong with the movie that didn't follow the book to it's fullest.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I saw the movie and I have read all the books. And I have to say I really didn't like because it was so cheesy and trying to make you laugh. I recommend the real twilight by stehanie meyer than this. If you haven't read the saga then you will like this and the movie. But if you have, you might like both. I don't know but this is my opinion. They shouldn't make movies from books sometimes expectually this one.

If you liked the movie you will probably enjoy this ....
I purchased this for my 10yr old Twilight obsessed daughter and she really enjoyed it. It has a lot of interesting behind the scenes information about both cast and crew and takes you Stephanie's mindset when the production was taking place. A must for the Twilight obsessed and a distinct possibility for those with just a passing interest.

ok
I just bought it because it had to do with twilight but the information didn't really capture my attention on the plus side the pictures were great but for a behind the scenes book on Twilight Cathrine Hardwickes directors notebook is the best. FYI the book is 10,000 times better than the movie dont get me wrong I love the movie but the books are just amazing I love Stephanie Meyer
