5.0 out of 5 stars Really amazing guide!
Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2008
Verified Purchase
I bought this guide before watching the movie only to see a preview of the filming process. I was really anxious about the whole Twilight Saga being made into a movie franchise, but it grew to my expectations, and this guide is amazing!
You'll find many interesting stuff in this guide, but this is NOT about the movie actors, or their fictional characters at all. It's main purpose is, besides beautiful full-page photography, to give fans a glimpse into the filming process, writing the script, adapting the book, Stephenie Meyer's thoughts, makeup and other movie-orientated subjects. It's very thorough and in depth. If you're interested in other levels of creating movies other than just the actors, then this is for you.
Some of the main actors have quotations on some of the photos, but the most quotable person is the director Catherine Hardwicke.
I really enjoyed this guide and I rate it 5 stars!

This book is great I read it from cover to cover very interesting telling you all the details on making the movie and what went into making the movie and also places where different scenes were filmed(eg Oregan etc ) and how they came about the places. Explains how they designed the sets and found places and what they had to do with the sets to make it realistic yet "Twilightful" I also really enjoyed the part how they explain the shooting of the movie as they wanted it to be real not digitally enhanced also the stunts that were done by either the actors or stuntmen especially the scene in the trees with Edward & Bella. All over a really interesting and good read also hasd beautiful pictures from the movie and pictures while making of the movie, Catherine Hardwicke a genius

5.0 out of 5 stars Represents the making of Twilight better than Catherine Hardwicke's Directors Notebook
Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2009
Verified Purchase
I am a total Twerd (Twilight Nerd) and because of this I have purchased just about everything relating to Twilight. With that said, I felt this book was a much better representation of how they made the movie than Catherine Hardwicke's Directors Notebook. Catherine's book felt like I was reading a comic book where The Complete Illustrated Movie Companion was more like a guided tour of how they made the movie. I never really thought much about movie making except for the actors themselves but after reading this book I have a huge appreciation for all the hard work and creativity that goes into making a movie. Also the photography was awesome and I felt like I really was behind the scene watching them create the Twilight masterpiece. I hope you found this helpful and if you get the book you enjoy it as much as I did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Twilight...it brings back so many happy memories
Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2015
Verified Purchase
When I got this book, several years ago I believe, I was obsessed with all things Twilight. I'm now older and while I might not be a hardcore Twilight fan anymore, I still love the series and everything it represents. It's about a seemly normal girl who, against all odds, finds the love of her life, a love that comes once, maybe twice in your life if you're lucky.

I love all the facts I learned about in this book. Some of the facts I knew before, but many of them I hadn't. My favorite part of this book though is the pictures. Although I'm not obsessed with the saga anymore, I still smile and giggle when I see all the pictures from the first movie. It reminds me of my teenage years and all the wonderful memories I have watching this movie with my family and reading the books. I will always love the saga and I'm so happy I have this book for the memories.

A great addition to any Twilight fan's collection. I highly recommend!

5.0 out of 5 stars A true companion to the film
Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2009
Verified Purchase
I like other Twilighters, purchased this book before the movie was released. It gave a thorough look behind the scenes to show us how the adaptation looks through the eyes of the director, and production staff.
The photos are excellent, and seeing how such scenes as Edward shielding Bella against the truck in the ice, the rescue in the dance studio, etc. really put you there. I am studying film and screenwriting, and it is always interesting to see how behind the cameras work.
Regardless of what you think of the casting of this film, you will, if you are a Twilighter, delight in this movie companion.
Most informative and also a great book to look back on after you've seen the movie.

4.0 out of 5 stars REVIEW OF TWILIGHT ILLUSTRATED MOVIE COMPANION
Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2009
Verified Purchase
Very very technical -- the details of producing the film -- definitely not gossipy: Searching for the film sites, the camera work, the weather, the hairdresser, the makeup, the costumer, details of the actual shooting of the film; from reading this book, my respect for Catherine Hardwicke TRIPLED; the entire production crew clearly has the greatest respect for her. I believe that she did a superb job of bringing "Twilight" to the screen -- she so clearly retained the flavour of the book. I was very surprised that she was not the choice for the subsequent films and I await "New Moon" with curiosity -- if the new director does even half as good a job as Catherine Hardwicke did with "Twilight", I will be greatly relieved!

I just got this book today and althought I have not read all of it, I have to publish a review because it is really really good. The pictures alone are so worth the money. There are some pictures that take up whole pages and they are great. Anyone who fell in love with Bella and Edward and is anticipating the movie, will think this is a great addition to the twilight series.

If you are a fan of Rob Pattinson, and I know there are a lot of ladies out there who are, you will love the pictures of him. It is great. If you have any doubt to buy this book, don't. You will love it if you are a fan of the series.

This is really fantastic buy for any Tri-hard fans. It delves behind the scenes into the making of the movie and speaks to everyone who helped bring Stephanie Meyer's brilliant book to life on the big screen. The pictures are awesome and helps you to relive many scenes from the movie. It takes a look at how the idea of Twilight was conceived by Meyer, the way the film makers approached it as a movie, and finally how every aspect of the Twilight movie was created, covering everything from locations, wardrobe, special effects and camera angles, and the characterization of the actors. This is a must-buy for any Tri-hard fans. A big thumbs up!!

I bought this book from Amazon.ca to complete my Twilight collection of books, memorabilia and DVDs. This is a very comprehensive guide not only to the movie itself but also to the background stuff the viewer otherwise wouldn't see or know about. Cotta Vaz is extremely good at his craft and takes the reader through virtually every stage of the making of the movie, from set preparation and scenery selection, to wardrobe and special effects. I also was impressed by the way he weaves the story and its characters into the various sections of the film. While quite a lot of these details are outlined in the DVD's bonus disc, they are brought to life by the vividly fascinating and deeply atmospheric photography in this companion-book. Particularly insightful, too, are the interviews and actors' impressions and comments. This is a collector's item that continues to thrill and enthrall the reader, diehard Twilight fan and moviegoer alike, for years to come.
