| I've been hearing about this from one of my friends who read the book also. One of the sentence made me loled, something about the vampire that *sparkles* so I was thinking - was the vampire wearing diamonds or bling? xD I might go see the movie, depending on the ratings. |
 |
| I might go and see it if I have the time and the money. |
 |
| Probably not because I hate movies based on a book. The book was really nice but what will the movie show? half of the time Edward will be watching Bella. True masterpiece. |

She’s completely mad and she’s in love with her own fictional creation.’ And sometimes you would feel uncomfortable reading this thing.” Falling in love with fictional characters is bad enough, but your own? That's like...falling in love with your own children... ... I enjoy killing and torturing my characters. ... Damn, if this woman can publish that thing, then I'll bloody well publish my books too. Now, to actually finish writing them... FlyingChinaMan said: People think guys shouldn't read this series unless they're gay or something >_>. But I've read it and I'm straight. I't not embarrassing to acknowledge it, we understand, we will accept you no matter what :D Maybe I'll watch it after all. If it's so bloody horrible, it might be worth the thirty minutes of bandwidth... |

| I love Twilight...I'm in such a minority here. I'll see it and all, but I already know I won't like it. They took so many wrong turns with this movie... |

Maora said: LOL. I hated Interview purely for the fact Tom Cruise really did not fit my description of Lestat and I'm a huge fan of Anne Rice's vampire books. Stuart Townsend made for a brilliant Lestat in QotD plus that Marilyn Manson/Korn soundtrack was to die for.my acting teacher last year was in Interview with the Vampire. he's a fucking asshole. no wonder he was only in a small scene.

Justine said: I wonder why everyone assumes guys who likes Twilight is gay. What does sexual preference got to do with Twilight? It's a mushy love story isn't it? It's usually not socially acceptable for guys to like those. Especially not if it's one of those typical fantasy vampire - love stories. I've tried some myself, and didn't like them, but I still find myself attracted to girls, so I guess sexual preference really isn't related. Shocker. Still, it's always fun to cast obscenities at people, and faggot happens to be one of my favourites. You don't need a reason to call someone faggot. But ignore me, I'm weird. |

Justine said: Well I don't see how that is connected to homosexuality. >_> But I can completely see why they' want to see it to get laid. But we can't suspect all homosexuals to be people who loves mushy petty sparkly vampire stories. It's insulting to homosexuals when anyone says that, why should gay be a crude word? Calling them a pathetic excuse for a human is waay better, or asking if they've got any pride left. One of my friends is gay, and knowing him, I'm sure he'd loathe this Twilight thing. I still call him faggot though. Because I can :D |
| I love Twilight so I'll go watch it! =) But I know I'll hate Kristen Stewart's Bella =S |
    *^*Random Rant*^* |
| I heard it bomed people were laughing at it like it was comedy, but i love the books so i will see it anyways. |
 The mind is its own place, and in itself, can make heaven of Hell, and a hell of Heaven. |
 what made me laugh. redreplicant said: One of my friends told me that this series was like the second coming or something so I ended up reading a lot about it. My impression was that the entire series is a sad reflection of the fantasy life of Stephanie Meyer, where Mormon values really work and she's young, slender and beautiful. It's the only explanation for the lack of real development in the books: why do people like Bella? Nobody knows. What is Bella's biggest flaw? Being too skinny (!) and clumsy. Yeah, right. Huge character flaw there. I think the article on ED sums it up best; Bella is certainly a classic Mary Sue [edit: this is an ED link. Wear a rubber]. Twilight is simply the fantasy vehicle for the kind of immature, insecure woman who wishes that some guy would just drop from the sky and take care of her forever-- and that she'd no longer have to worry about being fat and ugly and unlikeable. Sure, it's nice to dream, but it doesn't make for great literature. |
| Hoho. Literature based upon dreams should be limited to nightmares. Those are much more gratifying to read. I can't ever understand those who wants happy endings. |

wtfyourface said: Did someone say Harry Potter? Courtesy of Mean Girls. LMAO<3 this pwns XD =O i think the movie is gonna butcher the book.. which it usually does... but the plot is still yummy.. THUS lets make twilight happen ;D |
^____^ |
| Looks semi interesting. Though not enough to spend money to see it. I'll watch it whenever it comes on FX, USA, or TNT. :| |
 |
| live action vampire knight and based off a shitty book fuck that |
 |
| This book/movie is extremely overrated. My friend happened to get caught in the hype and started to read the books and now she badly wants to see the movie. I don't wanna get dragged into it. -_- |

| Ok, so I talked to my gay friend on MSN yesterday, and he seemed to feel insulted when I asked him whether he liked this thing. There, Myth Busted; Gayness does not necessarily include a liking for Twilight. We learn new things every day. |
| 5.3/10 on IMDB, epic ratings. |
| I sawww it~! Awhs, so cute. I did get sad over the small changes, ;__; but other than that... For my lovely Alice of course, <3 yumm, ily Alice. |

Or did I forget to throw in dane cook, and comment on his awesome ability to do standup comedy. |
| "Vampires do not sparkle for fuck's sake!!!"-angry goth kid here are some fun articles from jezebel: "even as someone not biased, the movie sucked" how twilight is damaging to our society |
| TWILIGHT IS THE BEST MOVIE EVER IN HISTORY TO BE MADE AND I LOVE IT AND EVERYBODY SHOULD SEE IT AND READ THE BOOK BECAUSE IT WAS AWESOME AND ALL OF THE VAMPIRES ARE SEXY!!!!!!!!!! TWILIHT RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| I find it interesting that people are getting so worked up over a piece of fiction that they didn't like. If you didn't like it, and you're not going to see the movie, great! But what makes you feel you need to bash it and laugh about it in this thread? I believe the intention of this topic was supposed to be for people to say if they were going to see it or not. It's a fictional book aimed at young girls. It's entertainment. Look at some of the best selling fiction books and authors aimed at women in the world. Nora Roberts? Danielle Steel? Harlequin novels? No one could possibly say these are "works of art", and neither are they trying to be, but they're obviously popular. You may not enjoy them, but you can't deny it. Are teenage girls also not allowed to read a book of romance and fantasy, and enjoy it simply as entertainment? Must they always read something "deep and sophisticated"? Everyone has some form of entertainment that they like and they can escape to. Romance novels? Video games? Anime, maybe? And they all can be criticized in their own right. But that's never going to deny the fact that some people enjoy them. As for myself, I will probably not see the movie in theatres. The acting and special effects looked pretty awful to me from the previews, and in the "upcoming movies" they play before the previews of the movies start, I saw an interview with the guy... and he sounded like a moron ^^ He apparently was only cast for his pretty face. I'll probably watch it on dvd or the tv though. |
