My Take on what the New Moon Trailer should have been like from a reader’s point of view. Chill, I’m not going to criticize everything that was in there, I just thought it was a missing an element.

New Moon Movie Trailer on the MTV movies blog

(Spoilers: only for those who have read the book New Moon)

I was all ready to watch the New Moon trailer on MTV. Sure, they said it was a clip at first but when they said it was a trailer, I was jumping for joy.

The opening was catchy; it grabs your attention and you know what they are talking about. The Birthday scene wasn’t completely as I imagined but there was nothing really wrong with it.

But, when Edward started talking, everything went a bit confusing with what he said. I mean, it sounded like Edward was leaving for Bella. In the book, it is supposed to sound like he is leaving because he doesn’t want her anymore.

Okay, for those who have read the book, we all know that is actually what happened; Edward did leave Bella to keep her safe. But the whole point in New Moon was that Bella thought she wasn’t good enough for Edward, that’s what really breaks her heart. I was waiting for the oh so famous line of ‘You don’t want me?’.

On another note, the scene in the forest didn’t feel dramatic enough. To be honest, it looked like your average walk in the woods on a nice day. One thing I didn’t see in the entire section ,plus the scene of her lying on the floor, was Bella’s expression. They didn’t show much of it which didn’t entirely get the atmosphere across to the viewer.

All in all, it was a fairly good first trailer. It did the main job of catching your eye. The Wolf was awesome; exactly how I imagined it. And yes, Taylor Lautner has definately been working out. Hopefully, the next trailer will capture the emotion in it better.

Can’t wait. I’m thirsty for more.
