A Thank You letter from David Slade

Posted on 06. Jul, 2010 by in News

The official Twilight Facebook page just posted this thank you letter to Twilight fans from David Slade-

When you put your heart and soul into something as intense as the duration of a film production, you become completely lost in it. You focus on doing your very best to get it right each day and you work on this for so long that you assume an ownership of it.

When shooting The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, I always felt an awareness of how many people this film would reach and as a result, knew that this film did not just belong to myself, the producers and the studio, but more so, to all of you, the fans of The Twilight Saga.

At the end of the day, after all the hard work is done, all that’s left is the film itself, and your overwhelmingly positive and supportive responses have made me feel like we must have done something right. As a filmmaker, this is a rare and strange feeling of connection with an audience of which I will never forget and I thank you all for it.

    Thank you Mr. Slade for a job very well done.

    On Saturday, July 03, we went as a family and also brought my girlfriend and her husband. Yes, we convinced our hubbies to come with us to Eclipse. My thirteen years old daughter, who has read the entire series five times, was thrilled that Eclipse the movie was very similar to the book.

    We never attend a movie more than once because I usually buy the DVD. We are set to go see Eclipse with my daughter’s godmother and my other girlfriend tomorrow.

    Thank you for an awesome movie, and for the joy of sharing the experience with family and friends.

    Mr. Slade, you and your team have done an outstanding job. We thank you for your effort and care.

    Thank you David Slade for an AWESOME movie!! You kept to the book so well I could picture the entire book as I watched the movie. It was different from the first two books–a little on the dark side–and I was wondering how you would work that into the movie but I was in NO WAY disappointed!! I have seen the movie 4 times already and notice something new each time. THANKS FOR A GREAT MOVIE!!!

    Thank you David for doing a great job with my personal favorite of the books. I’ve already seen it twice and plan to go again with my mother tomorrow, who I’ve finally gotten to see the prior two films.
