About Jane's power...
did this come from a reliable source? Because we may not even have to worry about it.

^I think it came from the leaked New Moon script, not sure if that was the genuine article or just somebody's fake one.

Totally agree,I mean when has anyone ever made a movie that was better than the book it was based on?I can't recall a single one to be honest. :?
I seriously hope they don't start throwing in unwarranted and needless (not to mention inaccurate!) 'Edward' scenes to try and appease the 'raging hormone' demographic.... :roll:
I await with bated breath.....
Cheers,
Tony.

Tuck Everlasting.
At least to me.
But, no way could New Moon the movie be better than the book!!

True.Also A Walk To Remember,and LOTR..but anyway yeah,A movie just can't totally live up to the experience of reading the book.

Actually the book "Do androids dream of electric sheep," The book Blade Runner was based on. Truly Blade Runner is soooo much better

Okay, so yes it has happened that a movie is better than the book. But I find it to happen like once every ten years or so. Maybe LOTR, simply because the movies are easier to follow. There is absolutely no way that the movie NM will be better than the book. We saw Twilight....That pretty much says it all for me. It is still Summit making NM, that has not changed even if it's a new director. So I think it will be better than Twilight, but never in a million years better than the book.
I just don't see how the pain can translate onto the big screen well. Like when she goes under after realizing that her pictures are gone, and doesn't really resurface for months. It was so excellently written.
