And on a somewhat unrelated note:

Ms. ‘MissMatched’, not mad at you or anything, but I think the reference to asians (”cheap asian knock-off hand-held camera”) was uncalled for. Anyway, just saying.

Breaking Dawn is unneccessary because it has the distinct feel that it was done because Meyer wanted money. The story effectively ends when (spoiler alert) Victoria is killed. There is no need to go any further. Everything is wrapped up. Breaking Dawn reminds me of the The Return of the King movie. The story is resolved but the movie keeps going for another 30 minutes.

I guess, in conclusion, is that people should get over it. Twilight is big now but it is going to fizzle out. Sorry fangirls, this is not a new literary classic. This is a fad. In five years you are going to look back and laugh saying, “I can’t believe that we were obsessed over THAT.”

I also found this installment of HBN amusing, and I’m glad it’s back

Category 1: The Fangirls
OOMMMGGGGZZZZZZ TWILIGHT IS THE BESTEST THING EVAAA!!!!!!!!! I AM SO IN LVOE WITH EDWARD!!!!! HES SO SEXY! STEPHANIE MEYER IS MY HERO!!!! DON’T BAG HER OR TWILIGHT OR I WILL KILL YOU IN YOUR SLEEP!!!!!!!!!

Category 2: The experienced horrified writers.
It amazing what passes for literature these days. These books are the fantasies of someone who obviously has problems, and is brainwashing an entire generation of young girls with poor morals and bad examples. Now, time for my warm glass of milk and it off to bed…….

……0.o

That’s what it looks like and is honestly quite terrifying. Don’t judge me on that - I am only stating what it looks like. If you want to judge me (which I know you all do…that why you read comments; this is my experience with Twilight-:

Many years ago, I was looking at the books a friend of mine had - and I happened to find a copy of Twilight. (the very…very old original copy….with the picture of a chick with short black hair (wft..) standing next to what looks like school lockers..) So, I decided to check it out and buy my own copy. This was around the time where no one had heard of this book, before Eclipse was released.

I read it, and I must say, I liked it. Not just that, I loved it. The books are very addicting to read. My group of friends (guys and gals) became pretty much the first people in our school, do I dare say entire shire - to like, let alone read or HEAR of Twilight.
After Eclipse was out for a while, there were rumours of a movie on the internet. These were still the days we’re I was convincing my friends from other school to read it, that had no idea what it was. So, therefore it was very rare to meet another Twilight fan, and you were both instantly friends if you met one.

The movie was starting to be made, and I had denounced it completely. As exciting as the idea of Twilight becoming a movie for everyone to know about…..you can’t make Twilight a move. Not a good movie anyway. It’s impossible. (Turns out I was right..huh.) I hated the actors…it was just all wrong. They were wrecking my book….my characters.

Slowly….actually, suddenly TWILIGHT was everywhere. At first I was proud to see it….but then slowly I saw the kind of people that were starting to get into it. People who I know in my grade, who I know had never read a book before Twilight, let alone had more than one brain cell in their heads, were running around screaming “EEEDDWAAAARRRDDDD”. It was embarrassing what they were doing to me characters….now I hoped that the movie would actually somehow.. redeem them.

Then came…Breaking Dawn. Like everyone else who was a fan around that time, I was flipping my lid with excitement. Another friend and I took the days off school, to wait around the shops for HOURS until the books finally arrived (we got to cut the boxes open!). Breaking Dawn. That was what ended my love of Twilight. (and made me want to stab the shit of a Bella once and for all) For some reason whilst reading it…I realised how terrible it was. Stephanie Meyer had destroyed her own characters…not the movie, or the wildcrazed stupid fangirls. I hated Breaking Dawn, to put it simply. Then looking back on the other books…I couldn’t remember what was so great about them either. They were…kinda boring now.

Sure, I admit, seeing the fans of twilight did put a fowl taste in my mouth whenever I said I was one of them…but I’m glad on my own I realised…(to put it bluntly) terrible these books are. Plus, the movie may have had something to do with it. (My friends and I dressed up as sexy Volturi members….that was the best part of the night, but how hard the movie sucked is another story).

I no longer consider myself a fan of the books as such; instead I read harsh and funny reviews on them, to laugh at how horrible they are. (hello cracked.) But, I can’t deny how totally in love with them I once was. I’ll give it to Stephanie…you may not know how to write a plot or anything..but somehow you made it incredibly addicting. You sucked people into your world, removed them of their own free will, and now you have more power than several small countries military forces combined…….Fangirl power (shudders). Bravo.

But what I’ve gained from this series isn’t a love of reading (Already had that)….which honestly I guess this series has given to the majority of stupid girls that otherwise wouldn’t have picked up a book. Now have I gained a love of Vampires (already had that). But I’ve gained the knowledge that I do have the power to retrieve my soul from the clutches of something evil before it gets too ugly. Plus…I’ve learned what makes a good book, and what makes a shitty book. In the end, Twilight will help the next generation of hopeful authors :). So thank you for that Steph. But…no thank you for all the..you know…abusive relationship…stalker/controlling/is ok…anti feminist stuff – and giving some conservative reviewers who whine on about everything; ANOTHER thing to complain about. We’ll never hear the end of Twilight now. It can only end in a bloody battle to the death between fangirls and anti-twilighters, which will end up destroying every living thing on the planet. 0.o

People: Get a life…before you lose it.

You know what?

-No, I don’t. And if it’s from you, no. I don’t want to. It’ll most likely cause my I.Q points to go and just die.-

The three most dangerous words right now, are “I liked twilight.” and I am SICK of it.

-No, the most dangerous words are ‘Twilight blows hard’ ‘Twilight really sucked’ or anything negative about it. Seeing the reactions from the fans are…hysterical.

Example: Your comment here now.-

People judge it, treat it as crappy, and just judge other people who enjoyed it.

-And you getting mad at the writer, and us, for hating it is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo not judging, at all.-

Talking about it is the equivilant of setting an bomb on your chest or something.

-I have no idea what ‘equivilant’ is, but I have to say this. I’m surprised you are comparing Twilight to terrorism now, or suicide. It’s like comparing shooting people, to shooting cans.

Not. The. Same.-

I liked it. GASP OHE NOES!!! SHE MUST BE AN IDIOT

-No, but I do think you’re a Troll. And a crappy one at that.-

…….FUCKING WRONG.

-Yesssss~. Using CAPS rape is what the intelligent people do ALL the time now. Eye-rolling moment.-

And Yes,

-Did you need to capitalize ‘y’ why?-

Bella can be stupid, but seriously.

-No shit.-

She’s a FUCKING TEENAGER. That’s how I acted when I was her age,

-I’M a teenager, and I wouldn’t let my daughter get molested by a pedophile. Or let a guy emotionally abuse me, or treat others like crap when they’re trying to be nice.

Whoever acts like SHE does in the book, is an asshole and creep in my opinion.-

and I love that about this book.

-Oh boys.-

I WAS EXACTLY LIKE THAT.

-So you promote child-grooming then? And abusive relationships? Glorified fanfiction stories? Hmmm…-

I can sympathize, a small amount,

-Stress ’small’ to a billion times, and that’s what you get from the rest of the world.-

and when she does something annoying, I

-Which was all the time.-

know it’s not because S Meyers is a bad writer,

-It’s because she’s a CRAPPY writer then?-

it’s that TEENAGERS ARE IDIOTS SOMETIMES.

-Hey! We don’t go running around, trying to fling ourselves off cliffs everyday! Leave us out of this.-

Oh? and anyone who didn’t like jacob,

-That’s the entire population of the Twilight haters then, and people with common sense.-

yeah, in eclpise, he is kinda annoying

-My GOD! You managed to rape the word ‘eclipse’ in one foul type! How can you do that now?-

but jeez, he’s a teenaged boy in love,

-One: There’s no such word as ‘teenaged’.

Two: I don’t give shit if he’s a ‘kided’ boy in love. He was still annoying and is a proven pedophile He couldn’t get more creepier/annoying.-

not to mention a FUCKING WEREWOLF.

-And him being a werewolf is an excuse how…?-

I know I didn’t fucking string things together,

-Yeah, we noticed that a long, long time ago now.-

but here’s my point:

-Please let it be smart, please let is be smart, please let it be smart, please let it be smart.-

Get the hell out of my face about reading twilight.

-How on earth is this article all about you? Are you that narcissistic to believe this is all about you? Or are you simple a Troll?-

I’m an english major.

-Sure you are, dear. Sure you are.-

I read beowolf, Wuthering heights, ect.

-How the heck are you an English major if you keep raping the most simplest of words/terms?-

LET ME READ SOMETHING MINDLESS.

-There’s something called ‘mindless’, and something called ‘abomination to feminism/over-all human rights/life/general biology/general English/common sense.’

Twilight killed that line.-

FUCK YOU.

-Ah yes, this is really what a mature English major would say to several people on the internet. I dub you, thee Macho Man.-

My REAL problem with Twilight is that it was written by a woman, it is marketed to young girls, and the message of the series is this: “Love means being utterly subservient to you man and letting him get you pregnant.” GAHH.
