I sooooo wanna see Vampires Suck XD

And Taylor Lautner is f-cking ugly.

lmao, i only like his eye color, :P
but i realllly want to see that movie!!

Oh geez, this is still among the living?

But yeah, my dad and I are BOTH seeing Vampires Suck.

>< Jealous!
I wants to see it!
I say me and my bf will see it when it comes out ^^;;

WE SAW IT

IT WAS EPIC

It was just as fucked up as the original movies.

I think it's impossible to be more fucked-up than Twilight.

Watch, the world will surprise you...

Catcher in the Rye surprised me. Then I read Twilight.

ahh, people with common sense. so good to see. (:

i've read the entire series (to get through it i had to pretend it was a parody, and even then it was a close call), though i haven't seen the films.
i'll focus on the things i dislike about the books;

★ Meyer's writing style.
★ the total disregard for centuries of folklore, just to Meyer can have a wangstfest.
★ the continuous misuse of the words "literally" and "chagrinned".
★ the awful representation of what is supposed to be "true love"/a healthy relationship.
★ how anything that could be an interesting idea (the Volturi, blood lust, the idea that Edward falls in love with Bella because he doesn't know who she is, etc.) is ignored in favour of more whining from Bella.
★ how Meyer rapes the first-person POV.
★ Bella's continuous whining about EVERYTHING.
★ the fact that Meyer said in an interview that her "true love" was more true than Buttercup & Wesley's (The Princess Bride).
★ how any female character has to have a lover, or risk being turned into a Scary-Sue (read: bitter, envious character existing only to make Bella look better).
★ the Jacob/Renesmee pairing. need i say more?
★ imprinting in general. can we say child grooming? D:
★ the constant references to and emphasis put on appearance - "oh, he's pretty! let's be friends! :D "
★ Meyer's idea that people can fall in love having had a total of four stilted, meaningless conversations.
★ the sheer number of times the words "stone", "alabaster", "ivory" and "topaz" are abused.

i can't be bothered listing any more right now.
but believe me, the list goes on. T^T

To sum it up: Smeyer is a complete and utter fail, and her books are a waste of trees.

yep, that's the general idea i was going for. d:

Haha. A thread like this exists? That's great.
I am slightly ashamed to admit that I've read the whole series and The Host.
I read them rather quickly actually.
Might have something to do with the lack of content, regardless of their size.
I didn't really think much about them after I read them. They were fluffy before bed reads. Didn't want to think while reading them.
They're really just like any other fluffy teen novel or mary-sued fanfiction. It's just that this one got popular.
The only thing I really have against it that I don't have against any other fluffy teen book is that the fans are totally messed up. o-o
... actually, no. I'm happy it exists.
Now some of the annoyances of the earth (the insane fans) are easy to spot and avoid. :stare: Makes it easier for me.
Just like all the other 'socially acceptable' things that annoy me.
Since it's acceptable it's easier to avoid. You don't have to spend a month getting to know someone to find out they've got a flaw you can't stand. They wear their flaws on their shirts now.

lol, nice one, cookie.

WOOOW, this thread switched from active to inactive to active...

Yeah...it does that whenever someone searches "Twilight".

lol, cool.

OH GOD. I JUST REALIZED.

BELLA BASICALLY GAVE BIRTH TO THE ALIEN BABY IN THAT MOVIE.

O.O That entire series is seriously just...ugh.

Yeah, I know.

...Meyer's writing pisses me off SO much, man.

Writing? What writing? "Writing" implies skill. Smeyer has none.

Thanks. (:
Um. Question. How can something dead (or un-dead) produce something living... you know, sperm? Within a few hours of being dead I can accept, even if it is a stretch. But years? That makes no sense to me. o-o Vampires just can't have children.
I prefer my fantasy to be somewhat realistic if it takes place in 'this world'...

... writing doesn't imply skill, just knowledge of a written language.
Published writing usually implies skill at some level.
Clearly it implies more of a supply and demand thing for Smeyer though.
Teenage girls want cruddy fiction - teenage girls get cruddy fiction.

Actually, a couple of hours after death isn't a stretch at all. The last neuron to fire in the brain after death can still be alive 72 hours after the heart stopped beating, and sperm can survive 24 hours without nourishment.

"Writing" can imply skill. Judging on the grammatical errors in Twilight, though, Smeyer has no knowledge of English. As far as supply and demand, Twilight was first published in 2005. It just completely flopped until someone decided to make a movie out of it - no one heard of it for a few years. So, the matter of those books' popularity is still a mystery.
