Chris Weitz Unfazed by Bad “New Moon” Reviews
Most found it surprising last week when some movie critics bashed “New Moon,” but director Chris Weitz says he wasn’t surprised a bit.
Weitz tells Entertainment Weekly, “Nothing surprises me in terms of reviews. Having been a reviewer myself, there are only two ways to spin this story. You can either be the one guy who says this is a great movie, or more likely, take a more jaundiced view of the whole thing.”
He continued, “And given the media blitz that has accompanied ‘New Moon,’ it’s rather unsurprising. I do wish there was more appreciation for cinematographer Javier Aguirresarobe. I think he’s a genius, and I think he made something beautiful.”
Chris says he is just relieved fans embraced the sequel, which earned $285 million worldwide in its opening weekend.

Jenna B is obviously a douch!!! KUDOS to Chris Weitz & crew who did an AMAZING job!!!! (Including the cast of fairly new actors). 
Whats more important, what the 
critics think or what the 
fans think? Of course it’s what the fans think. Afterall, fans are the force behind the entertainment industry. My TEEN BOYS & I have seen it twice & will go see it again. 
We loved the wolves, couldn’t take our eyes off the screen. (not because they are shirtless, when they are in wolf form). So if you don’t like my opinion, 
BITE ME!!! I really don’t give a F***!!!! People were talking during the movie making comments on the movie & comparing the movie to the book. Most people were amazed @ how much truer New Moon was to the book than Twilight was. I like how the movie has a bit of everything in it. Yes, it is depressing, yet funny & action packed. GREAT MOVIE!!!! Good job everyone involved. KUDOS!!!!!!!!!!
Tons of Twi Love
