ROBERT X. GOLPHIN:

Early this morning, I watched "Eclipse", the latest chapter in the "Twilight" saga, at a drive in theatre. A great way to watch an entertaining flick; arguably the most exciting of three with its darker tone, faster pace, action scenes, monologues, character development and multiple story conflicts. 

But perhaps some of the most interesting action came from "Twilight" fans. When the theatre was about to open, a long line of vehicles which stretched down a busy road, began honking their horns in excitement. Later, a young woman was asked by another whether she was "Team Edward" (the vampire) or "Team Jacob" (the werewolf). When the young woman provided the wrong answer, the other's response was an eye roll. 

Twi-Hards are intensely serious about their devotion to the characters and the series in general. And it's not really hard to see why.

This is the classic love story that both the young and mature can appreciate. "Eclipse", specifically, has a more "guy-friendly" tone that may debunk the arguable belief that "Twilight" is a "chick flick". 

Time will tell how the next two chapters, "Breaking Dawn", make an impact on fans. But this latest installment may have raised the bar. 

TEAM.... No, I better not say.
