Twilight

[Akuma Dulcet]

the books were ok. I even liked the first book, until it started all that Edward-left-me-my-life-has-no-purpose-I-shall-go-kill-myself bullshit in the second one.
I hatehatehate the movies.
Oh, and I hate the hype about it too. The sooner this fad is over and done with the better. Edward is polluting Hot Topic with his gayness and I do not like it. My local Hot Topic especially, three-fourths of the store is covered in Edward's ugly face. There is literally like ONE wall with the other clothes on it.

Except it's generally accepted that eating vegetables is good for one's well being.

Yippee-yi-yay...

Whereas reading/watching Twilight can be potentially hazardous to your health.
Seriously, I felt my IQ dropping as I read the damn things.

...Yippee-yi-yo!
Ghost Riders in the sky!

Worst Vampire book I've ever read. Mediocre work. Girls who acctually like this s**t are just plain s**t. Also (for me) it has ruined the sexyness of the vampires + the Irony of Edwards' name (Victorian and Edwaridan era).

Can it really be considered a Vampire book at all?

She just said corpses were sexy to her before she read Twilight.

i didn't like them at all.
the popularity of it was terrible. i was meeting fangirls everywhere, with Edward on their t-shirts. i just about went insane.
the book was poorly written, like some child fairy-tale story. the characters are one-dimensional, no personality or flaws, and the writer just dragged on the idea of a vampire in love with his/her prey (weren't they vegetarians? what kind of vampire does that? )
the series was just terrible - everyone knows you can't take photographic evidence of a vampire. . . . and how in the hell do you come up with a vampire glittering in the sun?
oh, i just about died when i saw the movies. the first time, my step-father forced me to watch it (i was grounded). the second time, he and my sister wanted to see it, so i was dragged to go with, as a "family activity". ... i was seriously crying because i did not want to see it.
i am positive i have lost brain-cells in the reading of the books and viewings of the movie.

Boo. Its an evil brain washing cult.
On the harry potter vs twilight discussion im for harry pot head.
i mean all twilight did was cover vampires in sparkles while harry potter invented the now a days witch
to keep it short, twilight sucks.  

[ElectroPanties]

The books are Meyer's sexual fantasy put into print. That creeps me out.

I saw the first movie and it was INCREDIBLY boring. I was shocked! It had absolutely no substance to it. I was amused to see Shark Boy, however.

I'm going to love to watch Twilight and Twilight conformists burn for their wretched insolence to the vampire population. They give true vampire novelists a bad name.

Vampires have been stagnating since long before Meyer. And, really, I can't think of any contemporary vampire fiction other than Poppy Z. Brite's "Lost Souls" or L.A. Banks' series that I've liked lately, and even those have plenty of flaws.

I make an exception to the World of Darkness LARP games, but that's mainly because the group I play with always starts the night with a round of pot and they're generally fun people to be around.

I read Twilight four years ago and even at the age I was then, which was fourteen, I could tell it was very poorly written.
The only good thing about it is that teenagers are actually reading something besides text messages.
As for the movies: I have never seen them, but my elder sister has and thought they weren't that good.
