When i was writing the novel, I saw the whole thing in my head like a movie. I really wanted to see it brought to life.
This looks just right.
Well, Bella and Edward's relationship was always defined by the fact that he is a vampire and she is not, and so I knew how breakable she looked to him.
She is like a soap bubble to him. He knows that one wrong twitch of his finger and he'd kill her so easily.
I've always loved super heroes. I've always thought that was so cool. And I know that's kind of a guy thing to get into the comic books and the superheroes, and so hopefully they'll enjoy that aspect of the movie.
As the writer, you hope that people go see the film and want to know more and go out and see how the book matches up with it. And that they feel the same feelings that people feel reading the book. I would love it if new audiences would walk out of there caring about Bella and Edward.
Even though you've read the story all over the internet already, I HIGHLY recommend watching the videos of Stephenie speak if you haven't yet. Her inflection and attitude are both quite a bit different than they are at American readings. It's pretty interesting! :)
