And for some reason Meyer loves to have love triangles. I started her book The Host and while I liked it a lot better than Twilight, she still threw in a love triangle that drove me batty.

Faulkner 10-08-2010 03:14 AM

I don't think any love triangle could be worse than the one in twilight. I couldn't finish the second book. I felt I'd read enough to make a legitimate case explaining why I didn't like it.

LadyKnightSkye 10-08-2010 12:44 PM

Have you read The Host? At least the triangle there didn't feature four characters and only three physical bodies. @[email protected] One guy was in love with the human host, and one was in love with the parasitic alien, but both the human and the alien were in love with the first guy. Made me want to bash my head in a wall. Everything else about it was actually pretty good, but I didn't finish the book because of that stupid triangle.

Faulkner 10-08-2010 06:35 PM

Yeah. While I admit that was weird It didn't acutally bother me as much as Edward and Jacob fighting over Bella.
At least at the end the parasite got a human body all to herself although for some reason that whole concept creeped me out.

Lilith W 10-09-2010 05:52 AM

Really the creepiest thing I found was the reason that is given to why Jacob likes Bella.
Now that is creepy.

Actually there has been a lot of reported injuries due to girls fighting over 'Team Edward' and 'Team Jacob'. It's gone so far, as yeah insults, name calling, broken bones, I've read of bruised organs, ruptured organs, skull fractures... Girls are vicious over this stuff.

Faulkner 10-09-2010 07:03 PM

That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Girls actually go so far as to injure each other over fictional characters they will never have a chance with? I'm sorry but that brings new meaning to the term Twi-tard.

Anyone who posted here for Alucard has my undying love. Also, I fell to the ground laughing thinking of Edward trying to defeat Alucard.

Faulkner 10-11-2010 04:57 AM

That seems to be the collective feeling for all the people who posted here. I to thought it was just plain funny to think of Edward Vs Alucard that's why I joined Team Alucard and I intend to get a T-shirt.

Maybe we should reclassify Meyer as a horror writer since her books manage to creep as many people out as they enslave to her heroes.

And since running across this thread I have looked into Hellsing, and yes, Alucard kicks ass and would kick Edward's all across the world.

Faulkner 10-21-2010 12:14 AM

Indeed. But then it doesn't really take much to Kick Edwards as would it?

Yeah. :P I mean

SPOILERX

breaking Edward's neck would easily kill him.


Anyways, even the simplest of Hellsing character could beat Edward. ;)

Angeline134 10-23-2010 09:43 PM

I would obviously choose Hellsing because Twilight's characters were so annoying and pathetic. Alucard could kick Edward's ass in no time flat. It would be the most boring fight ever because one second Edward would be there then he would be gone and Alucard's beast arm would be finishing up chewing him. Granted he would probably spit him back up because sparkly things are bad for you.

LadyKnightSkye 10-23-2010 10:33 PM

@Angeline: Can I put that on a bumpersticker? BEcause I would love to drive around in a car that has "Sparkly Things Are Bad For You" emblazoned on the bumper. XD

Angeline134 10-23-2010 10:43 PM

@KnightSkye go right ahead

I thought it was funny so that's why I posted it. I would be honored if it became a bumper sticker

Faulkner 11-01-2010 07:11 PM

"Sparkly things are bad for you" XD I love that.

YamiSora 11-02-2010 07:09 AM

lawl
Sora would just love a bumper sticker that says all the way across his bumper:
"Team Edward............................................ ..........................Elric"

LMAO

CADFND 11-05-2010 09:23 PM

I think they can be compared. After all, Manga and books are pretty much the same, but one uses pictures to show action and the other describes the action taking place. But that's my opinion. :)

And, the 'Team Alucard' thing was going around my school too, as well as 'Team Edward Elric'. ^^ Personally, I think that both FMA and Hellsing are so much better than Twilight.

Faulkner 11-12-2010 09:59 PM

I agree. Manga is a form of writing but most people don't seem to see it that way.

Ikami-San 11-14-2010 01:50 AM

I compare the two, since it's funny. I despise Twilight, and don't even look at it as a good book, the over-all plot is okay, it's not terrible, but it's not unique, but the characters make it worse. Anyway, enough of me ranting. Hellsing is a great anime, and in spirit I find it funny that "Team Alucard" fan place the two against each other.

kata! 11-17-2010 12:26 AM

I guess you could compare the two but if you think of it Edward wouldnt have a chance im no Twilight fan but come on Alucard against a sparkly wanna be vamp. there is no chance in hell of Edward winning.

I would still kill them. but we'll let Alucard have his fun~

-Requiem_Seraphim- 02-05-2011 06:06 PM

I've heard 'Team Alucard' all over Gaia, but I can't see actually comparing Hellsing to Twilight unless they're using the Twilight graphic novel. In that case, Hellsing and Alucard still win because the Twitlight graphic novel is still based off a story with no plot or character development and the narrator's unwarranted self importance and needless angst.

It's like when people want to compare Harry Potter to Twilight; it's like comparing apples and oranges. They have far less in common than similarities, being popular isn't grounds for comparison, ya know?

Hibiki78 02-13-2011 02:48 AM

Alucard can shred Edward and i would not mind if he too Stephine Myer in the mayhem.

xKaruriex 02-21-2011 07:07 PM

I'm one of the strange people that actually like the Twilight Saga.

Sure the characters are a little 'meh' but it was a good read that kept my attention.
I wish people would stop bashing it so much.
