I hate Twilight. And not in the hipster-style "I hate anything that's popular" kind of hate; I just hate it.
I hate Twilight. And not in the hipster-style "I hate anything that's popular" kind of hate; I just hate it.
I watched it yesterday, and although yes it was better than the last few and it had some okay battle scenes, I thought it was all a bit rushed (though, it was what..two hours or something?). The battle scenes didn't last long enough, and there was too much Bella on the screen. I still like a few of the characters, but none of them are main enough to get that much screentime. It was a little corny (i.e. every word out of Bella's mouth) and my mate was even laughing out loud at some of the "serious" scenes. I didn't like the replacement for Victoria - she looked very similar but didn't act like how I thought the original would have.
Sure there was more to say about this trainwreck..I mean, okay film. Why it sells so well I don't know..but at least we were in the luxury suite with leather sofas and alcohol if I were old enough. . .The popcorn fight was worth it though - free popcorn because my mate's bro works there it wasn't funny when it got in my hair though
I watched the first one because I had to see what the fuss was about (I also watched it again with a friend while we both...let's say...under the influence; just for lols) and after that I said "okay, I get it. There is no way that this couldn't appeal to young teenage girls, but it's a horrible smurfing movie." As I am NOT a young teenage girl, I did not see the sequel and I will not be seeing this.
Or maybe a chipped, flawed diamond?
Clo has the right idea. Not for it. But the crazed fans provide endless amounts of entertainment for us haters. ie - (SPOILER)crazy girl.

I don't even understand that. How could you NOT understand hate for Breaking Dawn? Strangely, I've actually read the four books. My old girlfriend lent me the first three and I sat down and read all them bad boys, thinking, "Well, this is a simple, sleezy-minus-any-sex read" and then I walked outside into the world and holy crap, people were not seeing it for the simple, sleezy little read that I had.
I ended up reading the fourth book when it came out just to see what could possibly happen to Bella and her smurfed up little love triangle from Hell. AND OH MY GOD, I wish I had gouged my eyes out instead, to spare myself the expense of my curiosity. The fourth book was a trauma-fest of disturbing psuedo-sex scenes, plot points that I would expect from fanfiction.net and not a published book, and fun little vampire biology that consisted of a horrifying vampire baby needing its placenta chewed through.
Who in the world could possibly think this was good reading material? Maybe if the baby started killing off everyone in the town after its placenta was chewed through, making it consistent with the horror genre you would assume of such DISTURBING CRAP, but no, it becomes a loving daughter with a name that made me vomit a little.
To be fair, Eclipse was my favorite of the four books, mainly because it wasn't 500 PAGES OF TALKING. So that's not saying much. I liked the newborn vampires, they were a cool idea. I guess. I'm trying to not sound so angry, okay?
And yes, I will see Breaking Dawn when the movie comes out, because I sort of just want to see how they handle the destructo-baby breaking Bella's spine thing, and the blood-gore fest that is Edward pulling out a baby while Bella's all Nightmare C-Sectioned with all her bones broken. Someone should just gouge my eyes out now.

Sounds like the plot for a new Saw movie :/

At first I was like no, but then when she "Amazing Book" I started busting out laughing. I also laughed at what looks like a theater curtain behind her. She reminds me of Chris Crocker a bit...if Chris Crocker was an obese British woman. "Stephanie Mayer"
EDIT: Omg, did you guys see this? This girl's great.
I saw the first Twilight movie on a plane from Tokyo to San Francisco, I think. There wasn't really anything else, so I thought "well, what the heck".
I guess I understand why teenage girls and tweens are fascinated by it, but all I saw was a mediocre teen movie.
