It only took one sentence of the first Twilight book to get me to read all of them. I have never been a person that has been into books, but the Twilight Saga changed all of that for me and it has not only changed that, but also the fact that fiction stories never bring my hopes up and make me wonder. Everytime I read a ficition book I know it is all imagination and I never get in to it, but their was something in the Twilight books that had me thinking and hoping for different things. I have a sister who is 23 years old and she must be the shiest and most down to Earth person I know, but these fiction books got her mind running too. After reading all the books we both saw the first Twilight movie together and now we saw the second. The trailers are just amazing! Especially the love ones like the one I uploaded, hopefully you have watched it.
Stephanie Meyer the author of the Twilight Saga is one of my favorite authors especially because this all started by a dream of hers. As all of you may wonder, why I am so obsessed with this trailer? Well this love trailer does not only show us a bit of love, but also temptation, charms, seductiveness and protecion. It is just an avoidable trailer and this is just a little heads up on how no one is able to pick who we fall in love with. This trailer makes me so excited everytime I see it because it just makes me want to love someone and feel the protection the girl (Bella Swan) must feel when her boyfriend (Edward Cullen) is telling her that he "feels his job is to protect her".
This trailer catches the attention of every type of audience. It doesnt matter if you are old, young, married or single, this love trailer fits to everyone because no matter how your real life is, their is always space to let yourself feel how anyone can be protected and loved. At the same time, the music in the background is low and gives signs of possible drama, it is also a sound that makes it very tempting to public to go and watch the movie as same as the words. The wording in this trailer is intriguing and very rousing. The filmmaker wants viewers to watch this engaging trailer which has an obvious amount of connection with the books that have become extremely famous. I find that this trailer leans more into the pathos category becuase their is always sadness in love. As we see in the trailer Edward Cullen fears to lose her and that is why he wants to protect her, and she has hope in the relationship, their are several mixed emotions. We can also see how their has to be a secondary "hidden" function of fear, complications and drama in their relationship. Finally, this is my favorite trailer because it makes me shiver everytime I see it, I get this sense of hope in love, passion and in how it is out there for everyone to find.
Hey Susana! Wow, this trailer sounds like it just use pathos in every possible way. From making audience members long for the love, to making them sad about the love not working out, to making them fearful about the future--there's just pathos everywhere here! I wonder, too, if we could look at direct connections to the book as a form of logos; they know that book readers will want to see similarities, so it's a logical move to include them in the trailer, right?! And, of course, the actors, the author, the entire Twilight name lends ethos (or credibility and authority) to the entire trailer. I think someone could do a very cool project about the rhetoric of Twilight in general--seems fascinating!
