they arent true werewolves cause they dont change under a full moon, theyre merely shapeshifters whose ancestors happened to have chosen the form of the wolf to change into
[spoiler]its all explained in the last book by the Volturi when Jacob changes in front of them and the three elders get scared shitless at first[/spoilers]and either way... Stephaine Meyer is a dumbass who wouldnt know what a vampire or werewolf was even if they popped out of her hoo ha and started chowing down on her 🙁
We've already been over this, earlier in the thread. Even in book 2, Jacob says it's folklore added to the legend that a fullmoon is required.
Read the argument, earlier in the thread, to see what I'm talking about. They are werewolves in the books and by the real world definition.

This was my point which Bardock and AC are overlooking because they think that there is actually an argument to be had onther than Stephanie Meyer being an idiot. (Sorry, Stephanie, but you decided to be an idiot in book 4 for some lulz to put your own twist on things.)
So, I watched Twilight, again, night before last (that's what I rented, RJ).
It was good, at times, paying nice homage to the book by including many lines, verbatim, from the book. That should have been really nice for the fans of the book. They totally messed up how some of the events, played, however. They shouldn't have as the book had it a tad better.
One thing that was rather off about the film: Bella and Edward falling for each other. It was misplaced. The book did well to slowly build that relationship up into something believable, whereas, the movie just made them, BAM!, fall head over heels for each other. Rather dumb, IMO. I'm a romantic and enjoy chick flicks, every now and then...but this was a tad too stupid for my tastes.
The movie also had some VERY shitty acting. The best acting delivered, overall, was from Charlie, the father. His lines were delivered very believably.
I did not like how twitchy, bitchy, and whiny Bella was in the film, as hot as she is. 🙁 But she had some very good moments of acting such as when Edward tried to say he should go away, when she was in the hospital. One think I'm glad about is the removal of Bella biting her lip every five seconds in the book, and her heart fluttering and stopping like she's a 90-year-old heart patient, about to die. That got old very quickly, in the book.

The traitor tears got me, too. I face palmed.
I would have rewritten that as follows:
"I reached up to my face only to find the stinging path swum by my traitorous tears."

all in all the lesson is clear
Meyer's editor made an epic fail when doing his/her job
It was both Meyer's and the editors' fault. (More than one editor, fer realz, dawg.) Meyer's actually has to write with at least some excellent prose...which most good writers can. You know what I mean?
If I can improve on her sh*t writing, and I'M a sh*t writer, what does that say about her writing?
