Fans of the TWILIGHT movies are dedicated to say the least.
Theaters were flooded with this legion of fans when each movie was released and
when the DVDs came out new sales records were being set left and right. When
the series ended the question was left what they would do with no more movies
coming out?
New series of films featuring young casts have been released
like THE HUNGER GAMES and INSURRGENT. Both are doing well but not near the same
as the TWILIGHT saga did when released. So what was it that made it so special?
Why was it the hit that it was? Most importantly did you even see this series?
Well if you missed out on it somehow or felt that the
purchase price of all those different movies wasn’t worth it then this release
is perfect for you. Not only will you get the first three movies you’ll get the
extended versions of each featuring deleted scenes from the films’ original
releases. Best of all will be the price which runs about the same as each movie
costs when originally released and on sale.
The first film TWILIGHT introduces us to the main
characters, in particular Edward, Bella and Jacob, a love triangle that tops
most. Why? Because Edward is a vampire, Jacob a werewolf and Bella a human being
who feels deeply for both but has a more deep rooted love it seems for Edward.
The love story found here resulted in fans choosing sides of either Team-Edward
or Team-Jacob battling it out online with one another throughout the run of the
series of films. This movie was the one that started it all and a great way to
find out not only what it’s all about but if you will enjoy the rest or not.
The second film, NEW MOON, carried on the story of the
three. With Edward having gone away this left Bella longing for him with such
an extreme display of emotions that for me it went overboard. I tired quickly
of the moaning, crying and screaming that left her an emotional mess. But
eventually things changed and the two reunite. No, that isn’t a spoiler since
we know there were three more movies to follow. It did add new complications to
their story though.
ECLIPSE, the third film in the series and contained here
brought things from the first season back again. As Bella finally makes the
decision of just who she wants to spend her future with, Edward or Jacob, a
vampire from the first film returns with revenge in mind. As more and more
murders occur in the area the trio knows a confrontation is coming. A final
battle between bad vampires facing off against a combination of vampires and
werewolves make this one pretty exciting at the end. It also sets up the last
movies in the series, the split movies of BREAKING DAWN PARTs 1 & 2.
So why weren’t the last two included here? My guess is to
promote sales of those two DVDs or the “Complete Saga” set. At the same time
for the price this set is offered it makes for a nice introduction that makes
buying the final films worth their price as well. If you’ve not jumped on the
TWILIGHT bandwagon or hesitated in buying the movies this is a good point to
jump on. It seems hard to believe it’s been 3 years since the last was released
and amazing how quickly fans have jumped off for the most part to new series.
That being said this makes it easy to discover or rediscover at an affordable
price.
