The movie was just bad, and all the people were so... UNATTRACTIVE. (Someone is going to shoot me for saying that.)

But Tav, I thought the sparkles are more because the "vampires" are made of stone, sort of. (They are bloodsucking golems, is what they are!)

I agree with you. The guy who plays Edward is hideous! Why do all the girls love him?

i will not, kitteh... i agree with you... that is not how i pictured edward at all *pouts in disappointment*

well i'll just have to keep my eyes open and if i see some kat, i'll let you know too

The movies and the books need to be banned from human memory. There, I said it. And I am not taking it back

Once I get enough gold I need to find some of the more mystical woodsie items on Mene.... to complete my faery woodland look :D

edward is ugly

and the vampires are fairies is what they are!

Woody: No, they must be remembered, lest we make the same mistake again.

definitely fairy vamps

I have no idea, to be honest. I thought it was just me... BUT HIS EYEBROWSSS~! That's all I remember, just EYEBROWSSS~!

@Cica: Was that the reason? Been too long since I read it. If so, not a big fan of the reasoning then.

I never got past the second book.

@ Tav: Agreed. He wasn't too bad in Harry Potter (which I love, btw), but Twilight is definitely a step down from that.

there really wasn't a reason... i just thought that the sparkling was supposed to be so glorious and in the movies he just kind of shimmered a little... pansy!

Tav, I only finished about half of the first book.

And I've come to the conclusion that calling the Twilight "vampires" fairies is an insult to urban fey.

you're probably right cica. urban fay are way cooler. I actually love fairies (cica would know)

I got through the first five chaptes of the second book and that is one of the few series that make me condone book burning.

(And once I was all about calling them fairies, don't get me wrong, but... I have changed my tune. Urban fey are awesome.)

Hahaha, ok Cica, you got me on that one


But seriously, they were written by a 12 year old sexually frustrated girl (or so it would seem).

It IS an insult to urban fae..... not cool at all. They aren't vampires, they aren't faeries.... They are pale, gaunt preteens with too much plastic glitter plastered to their foreheads.

alll this talk of fairies reminds me of an rp.....am I behind again, cica?

Twilight is an insult to fantasy in general... it's just UGH!!

I only continued on the books because they got slightly better as the series went on...

Yes, you do, Kat! 'Course, you love Disney fey, but maybe you love urban fey, too, I don't know. :sweat:

Woody: Yes!

Kat: Um, yeah, probably, though I don't know whether we're supposed to put our characters to bed or what now.

Wings: That, too. XD

It's a fanfiction. o.o That's what it reminds me of! The fanfictions young girls create in order to write themselves into a fantasy setting and have the magical boy uberly in love with her.

Here here. I think the one good thing about the situation is that it is getting more preteens to read....granted, what they are reading is shite, but it is better than nothing

rah rah rah for the sookie stackhouse southern vampire books!!
now those books have some HOT vampires... and they act like vampires!!
but those ones also have shapeshifters, witches, and fairies!!
