    Twilight SUCKED. Really badly.

  2. kiki says:

    Twlight is one of the StupidEST movies I ever seen, I guess you have to be 13 years old to love it.
    If you were a Vampire alive for 100 years.. why oh why would you ever be perputually enrolled in High School??

  3. Hieronymus Grex says:

    I can see why the kids like it, but anyone over the age of 18 should be DEEPLY ASHAMED.

  4. Ash says:

    I’m 23, and I loved the series, and the movie was good. It wasn’t great, I just like the love story. I am not ashamed. Come on now, I agree this story is completely ridiculous and some get out of hand but if people like it, who cares? If you don’t that’s fine.

    Still love it!

  5. Ash says:

    And as for Rob Pattison being “so hot”. This picture frightens me, he is so unattractive.

  6. I Choose Me says:

    I like Twilight series too and I’m 32. And no I’m not ‘deeply ashamed.’ It’s not great literature but despite its many flaws, I got caught up in the story. I understand that lots of people think its stupid and that’s their right but labelling everyone who does like it a moron is unecessary. That said, those kids who think the Twilight characters are real and attack anyone that dares to criticize the books are downright scary. I’d like to think this whole Twilight religion thing is a joke but I’ll just bet it’s not. *shudder*

  7. Twilight was amazing!!!! i loved Edward and Rosalie…i heard that they where in fact dating in reality… nikki reed has a new mobie comin ouy called Chain Letter im kinda excited the trailer wasc cool.

  8. Hieronymus Grex says:

    I was teasing anyway, I found it too adolescent hormone angsty for my tastes.

  9. Ash says:

    Yeah I see what you mean. A few things bugged me, especially how she swooned over him the entire series and said how she wasn’t good enough. OBVIOUSLY she is.

  10. yadira says:

    who cares about the movie when there is such a tragic and horrific thing as that picture of Paris Hilton! Yuck!!!!

  11. Enonymous says:

    What bothers me about Twilight is that why would a 100 year old vampire who is suppose to be so incredibly beautiful fall in love with a fugly, annoying girl and why would the girl in return, fall in love with a guy, who other then being a vampire, also sounds like a complete weirdo who often fantasizes about killing her.

    Whatever, both Robert Pattison and Kirsten Stewart are fugly to the bone to deserve such a hysteria.

  12. Ana says:

    The concept of the story could have been good but come on…he glittered?!?!!?
    there is something about that girl’s face that bothers me. I think it’s her mouth and jaw.

  13. Twinl-ight says:

    I love twilight and Robert is sooooo hot but in this picture he looks freakish. and that is so silly! NO one should have seen this picture!

    Anyway which team are you guys? Edward or Emment? I am so team Edward!

  14. K-Lee says:

    That comment was odd! i am team Edward!

  15. Vibius says:

    So Twilight fans are crazier than Trekkie’s and Star Wars nerds?

  16. piedlourde says:

    Meh. Watch True Blood instead, people!

  17. Ophelia says:

    True Blood is far better, I agree piedlourde. The books are awesome too.

  18. becca says:

    I’m team Tyler’s Van. 😀

    I knew about this AGES ago. It’s about time the news got out. Now if it could only be reported by some mainstream news, maybe people can look into its cult-like behavior.

    *shudder*

  19. OM says:

    I love Trueblood and the Sookie books, but I liked Twilight too. I haven’t read the books the movie wasn’t that bad in my opinion. As to why a 100 yr old vampire goes to school, my guess is that he goes to school so he and his family appear “normal”.

  20. nashnash says:

    I tried to watch Twilight on satellite TV…I could’t stand it and switched to another channel. It was, for me, just so…empty and pointless.

    I will never read the books, even though my older brother and little sis have read them and liked them. I don’t think I’ll be missing out on a literary classic.

  21. becca says:

    Nash Nash: You won’t. Trust me on that. This is a cult phenomenon, and these books are far from classics. And I’ve read them.

  22. TinaWithPom says:

    I’ve read all of the Twilight books. The movie was badly acted, and disconcertingly sexual. The movie oozed teenage hormones. Felt like I was watching a love story that was the cumulative fruition of Anne Rice + Sweet Valley High books + every angst-ridden 80s pop song ever written (Tears for Fears, Thompson Twins, etc.).

    I also can’t believe the next sequel is coming out this winter. The powers that be are really churning them out fast.

  23. TinaWithPom says:

    As an “old-timer,” the only thing I found worrisome was Bella’s very low sense of self-worth; it’s more prominent in the books than in the movie, but still it bothers me that young girls (aka my granddaughters) wish they were Bella. Then again, perhaps that’s what makes the story even more appealing and relatable to its fans.

  24. sara says:

    okay twilight wasnt great some of the actor disgusted me….but i have seen worse e.g high school musical, step up 2s acting was so crap!! but the dancing was amazing! the happening had great acting but if ur about to get killed and make a joke about it that just puts u off!

    in some movie there is always something missing that makes it bad or incomplete.

    and by the way ash i totally agree in the movie rob pattinson looked good but in real life he is a mess!

  25. Joolzz says:

    speaking of bad movies….what did you guys think of the watchmen – as in quality not hotness of a certain actor – 🙂

  26. Jaclyn says:

    “I can see why the kids like it, but anyone over the age of 18 should be DEEPLY ASHAMED!”

    STFU!!!!!!!! I love the Twilight books!!!!!

  27. Steffanie says:

    Twilight was nothing more than a remake of past Vampirish movies!!!
    I DONT KNOW why its become so famous

    prolly teenagers will like it!

  28. ♥♥♥LoVeE tWiLiGhT♥♥♥ says:

    YESYESYES!!!!! TWILIGHT 4EVAR!!!! I ♥ U EDWARD!!! OME I LOVEE TWILIGHT I AM SOOOOO JOINING THIS RELIGION!! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

  29. Raquel says:

    I loved the Twilight seris and have gotten two of my adult friends also reading the books! We love them!

  30. JUSTINE says:

    LoVe
    tWiLiGhT: THE ONLY REASON U WANNA JOIN THE RELIGION IS BECAUSE U LIKE Edward. If u didnt like the book or the movie u wouldnt want to join the religion. I hate Twilight and even if i did like Twilight i wouldnt join the religion cause your only suppose to have one religion and thats your religion with God not something that Edward started. Just because he started a different religion and that u like him doesnt mean u have to join it. Dont worry cause like in like a year thrers gonna be anothere book tjat people are gonna like more than Twilight. anybody that likes Twilight or doesnt like Twilight dont join cause it will be the biggest mistake of your life. and theres onemore other thing i have to say how do u even know if it really is a religion. U dont know for sure u can never be sure. Ifr this was true u would have hear this on the news by now but we havent so it isnt true
