Our debut article comes from Ta forum member Antares. Enjoy!Twilight the Movie.... A case for Overexposure?Type Twilight into Google image and over fifteen million hits appear. Twilight Film will provide eleven million hits with the term Twilight film in the video section yielding twenty thousand . Not to mention the options for other terms such as preview movie and trailer which provide a similar number of hits apiece. Now obviously some of these will be duplicates but it is clear that the popularity and demand for the film is enormous!
