Great, first post of this thread and I had lightning's real name spoiled for me? Thanks, jerk.
Also, your character choices from the other games don't even make sense. Alice is supposed to be a psychic who is in love with Jasper--
why not make *her* Ellone and Jasper like Doc Odine or something?
Rosalie is a mothering b****, so she'd be like Queen Brahne, and Emmett would be someone hulky but not too stupid-- Raijin maybe?
Anyways, MJN Seifer, I would've said your post about not judging twilight before
seeing it was pretty dumb, except the fact that the movies actually made the story much less painful.
Twilight is on the level of Dan Brown or John Grisham. Hack writing that serves only to tell some plot, and
s all over the language to do it.
Now, if we wanted to debate the importance of plot to writing or storytelling, that would be an interesting discussion. We of this forum have already done so many times with video games. Anyways, if such a discussion arises, I would posit that the authors I named, and their ilk, depend on the equivalence of HFCS to get their addicted bees to the flower, while
literature will depend on clever spices, contrastive flavors, and lots of care in the process.
