It’s Twilight Time

Heavenly shades of night are falling … it’s twilight time – a Twilight LINE, actually.

When I arrived at the movie theater yesterday just after the noon hour, I noticed about a dozen people camped out in a line.

What the heck were they there for?

The girl at the ticket office said the people in line had bought tickets to the midnight showing of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the final movie of the Twilight trilogy.

Goodness. Guess that’s what I get for not keeping up with pop culture. The “Twilight” books and movies skew heavily toward teen-aged girls and their mothers. And in fact, marketing has generally been limited toward them, leaving out general adults and young men altogether.

No wonder I’m in the dark about the young Twilight vamps and wolves.
