Re: Twilight.
Chill everyone! (I'm lookin' at you MelReynolds) It's just a movie. I say it was decent not that great with all those chickflick-ish scenes and all, but yeah it was okay.

Jesus, the books have NO redeeming qualities. NONE. They tell the story of a selfish, uninteresting girl who magically gets WHATEVER THE HELL SHE WANTS by the end of the story. What does she want? A possesive, overbearing, abusive boyfriend -- he removes her car engine at one point to stop her from seeing other guys -- marriage, a child, her love problems solved. Even her father, who relies on her throughout the entire series meets a woman at the opportune time for Bella to leave the proverbial nest. It's not even candy. Candy is a joy to eat, despite the fact that it has no redeeming nutritional value. The books are a poorly written exercise in tedium and bland description of how hot, smoldering, sexy Edwards eyes are (smoldering eyes? really?) that teach young people that the kind of romance featured in the books is the kind of romance they should be out looking for. It's literal ****. But if you want to eat it, that's fine. Just don't make anyone else smell your breath.

Re: Twilight.
The point Mal is trying to make is that there was no reason to re-create vampires. If you want to change what a fictional thing is, then make up a new fictional thing.
Either that, or he's trying to say that if you're going to re-invent the wheel, don't make it a square. |

Of course, that's just one of my many, many problems with the series, but you hit the nail right on the head.

Re: Twilight.
It's a good thing they recreated vampires. Before they were the lamest fictional creatures in existence. And if that is the only reason why you hate the movie and book, try to hear/read 'vampire' as something else. That shouldn't be a big deal.

Re: Twilight.
i like how the only way the twilight fans can refute mal's trouncing is taking his analogy literally
"yeah well i don't eat shit so clearly you're wrong OWNED" ps thechild: twilight is probably attempt number seven million or so at reinventing vampires, nothing she's doing has an ounce of originality

It was a new view, you just chose to ignore it, that was a pretty ignorant statement. You should be able to think whatever you want, it's a shame you couldn't be a little more open minded and tried to enjoy the book. I know I did, I also thought it was gay at first.
