So anyone getting into this craze? Anyone going to see the film? The fever has totally taken over my 12 yr old daughter and my home. I'm a big vampire fan but I think I'll wait until the hoopla blows over. My daughter and her friends will be there tonight with their matching Edward shirts. :)

If a guy is going, and they don't have their daughter or girl friend, that's pretty gay.

This is true. But it still remains that in an encounter with a werewolf only one thing can happen: he's gonna rip you to shreds and eat you. But with a vampire there are 2 possibilities: he's gonna suck your blood and then kill you, OR he's gonna suck your blood and then you are going to have really hot sex! ;)

best twilight review:

http://io9.com/5093688/twilight-should-shed-its-vampire-drag-and-embrace-its-sappy-self


By now, you've probably seen enough trailers to have guessed that Robert Pattinson isn't the greatest actor in the world. And that's true, but once you see the film, you'll understand just how incredibly bad he is - Like a black hole of talent, optimism and... well, everything aside from good looks, his every appearance on screen as the movie's hero Edward manages to suck in everything that you might have enjoyed about the movie. It's not just that his performance is flat, emotionless and entirely unconvincing (Although it is); his pale make-up, the special effects when he uses his abilities and pretty much everything else about him just kills whatever momentum and credibility the movie had each and every time he appears. It's fitting, in a way, because if there's one thing that the movie manages to convince you by the end of it, it's that this movie really isn't about vampires.

Yes it is.Ummmm.... no it isn't. Not even close.

Twilight series is a love story. That's it. All there is to it. It had potential and was ruined by the last (and latest) installment. It's romance. It's for teeny bopper girls.

Harry Potter is for everyone, to begin with.... and the depth of the story is unmatched by any modern youth/young adult series.

The only people that would believe that Twilight is the new Harry Potter is someone that just watches movies or gets their entertainment news from MTV.

edit: to add to my last sentence: .... or is a teenage girl.

Sorry I was referring to the hype surrounding the release of the film.

oh my god

oh my god


Are you fucking kidding me


Are YOU fuckING kidding ME???



Batman you are seriously THEEE FUCKING barometer of the not-so-thin line of legit human beings and pops-ass trend followers

Batman you seriously just said the vampire culture is so interesting

are you fucking kidding me
are you fucking kidding me

What the fuck is this god damn country coming to when a typical mexican like BATMAN says this shit on a message forum????

Are you fucking kidding me?

Now I understand why South Park souled out and made a Twilight episode, it's because douches like you and your millions upon millions of dime a dozen us citizens think exactly like you

this is absurd

I never, EVER in a bajillion years would have thought this "vampire" bull shit was this legit, but my fucking goodness


How fucking stupid are you americans??? More and more, I am beginning to understand why every other cool citizen of foreign countries thinks americans are fucking pompous front-tucking tools. Because it is fucking true.

This is a sad sad sad day to be an american.

And no, I am not on any substances tonight.


Fucking Batman

Saying he is interested in the vampire culture

give me a fucking break

Either

a) Every typical american is much gayer on the world faith scale than I ever thought

or

b) Batman is farrrrrr more feeble and lower on the general american faith scale, and I myself should be scoffed for thinking him higher.

Either way

i feel raped.

I think you've had to have read the book to really enjoy this movie. I liked it but I could do with out all the little girls in the theater sighing and giggling every time Edward was on screen...get a grip!

Ugh. Agreed. I was dragged there by a friend of mine while I wanted to see Role Models (in a PAINFUL twist of irony, after purchasing the Twilight tix, we pass by a RM poster and she shouts "OH MY GOD! I wanna see that! It looks SO funny!" Sigh)

But yeah, the first glimpse we get of this Edward cat, about 100 tween girls SCREAM like they're at a fucking N'Sync concert, and I die a bit inside.

I surmised that this movie was going the be the gayest thing on earth when I saw the trailer for it, and it featured "vampires" walking around during the day and being pussies about drinking blood. And the typical shitty music you find in all those WB or CW or whatever shows.

Ginofan

I guess you could say that. I doubt the movie could survive on it's own if there wasn't ever a book before it.

That's about double what it cost to make it. That's a fast profit.
