Fixed. EDIT: The fact that this movie did better in the box office than A Christmas Carol is fucking depressing. Does no one appreciate a well made movie any more?

I work at a movie theater. I saw the last 3 minutes of Twilight and about puked. Some of the worst dialog/acting I've ever seen in my entire life. It makes my 5th grade play look like a blockbuster. I absolutely refuse to see those films.
I know a lot of girls who read those books. I don't know ONE who thought they were good. Not surprisingly, none of them liked the movie either. So, no. it wasn't good. |

The reason it did better than A christmas carol Giyg is that the Twilight series has a prebuilt audience(thanks to its books) so it was bound to do better(that and christmas carol wasn't that good of a movie). |

I wouldn't really put Christmas Carol and a well made movie in the same sentence ;) |

If I wasn't such a caring and professional mod, I'd lock this fucking topic. I want nothing to do with Twilight. It's a failure of the film industry. Teenage drama is a poor effort for a film. I give the movie 0/5 stars. Total waste of time.
The only people who love the films are people who read the books, which happen to be middle school chicks. You can't exspect anyone who hasn't read the book to watch the movie and like it. What also pisses me off is how it's so inaccurate about vampires. Vampires don't 'glow and glitter' when endured by sun light. Makes no fucking sense.
I would, "A Christmas Carol is not a well made movie". See? Works perfectly. A Christmas Carol doesn't look all that great. On the comercial, half of it just shows Jim Carry screaming while flying or falling in the air. Plus, the film just looks like an eye candy show of 3D fan; hardly any effort in the story line. |

Every effing day, I have to listen to gaggles of girls giggling and whispering about how hot Edward Cullen is. Here is what Edward Cullen is:
. I will never read a Twilight book or see a Twilight movie. They dragged the term "Vampire" through a field of feces. |

Not my taste. Does it bother me that it's some terrible fad that's swooning over every girl and or guy? A little, but I can't hate the movie solely on that. I've never seen/read any of it so I can't judge.
People hating on this movie should be hating on how popular society jumps on the bandwagon for these kind of things. If a movie is bad, then it is bad. But if a movie is bad yet every little girl wants to see it, then blame the girls. It's not the movie's fault for creating the fandom that it has. And if they are, then they are laughing and rolling in piles of money. |

lol i agree, and even im not that creepy.
and they may aswell have a sceen where they go to a restaurant and eat garlic bread. the person that wrote the series is an idiot, considering that the first vampire storey was count dracula, and this is how the storey goes: count dracula was very wealthy and had a castle and a beautiful wife. The time came where his country was at war and he had to fight, he went into battle with his best friend. during the battle his best friend fled the battle, and returned to the town saying he was the only survivor. He was a hero and he said to the counts wife that he promised he would marry her and take care of her to fulfill the counts last wish so she agreed. about a year after the battle was won, and the count was returning to the town. Upon his return he learned of the news that his best friend betrayed him, so he stormed his own castle and killed his wife and his best friend and as a final act of vengeance he drank his best friends blood from his gauntlet. As punishment god cursed him to never see the light of day again, to have a constant hunger that cannot be full filled, a thurst for blood that will never leave and that he will never know the comfort of death. that is the true and only vampire storey, it was made because the count was a true demon of a person, since he would have his dinner in the presence of his victoms of war. The victoms where impaled, some still alive in agony. He would walk around eating and watching their suffering. the storey was created since he was such a monster that people thought he wasnt human since he was so cruel and vicious so they wanted to keep everyone from his dominion. |

I picked Other. Twilight is overrated bull. It's the same vampire romance novel that gets churned out by a million other bored lonely housewives every millisecond - why this one achieved fame I dont know. The underlying (if accidental) themes of the whole series are also very INCREDIBLY offensive.
Short answer: Shit sucks. I dont care about what constitute's a 'real vampire' since there's no such thing, even nosforatu is an inaccurate interpretation. But the books could at least have some internal consistancy and follow some form of logic. Ok, he doesn't burn up in the sunlight, fine. He sparkles. Ok a bit strange, why? His skin turns into a diamond in sunlight. Ok that's cool. But why the HELL can he move?!? What the hell is up with the stalking? And the pedophilia with the last book? And the sexism, my GOD the sexism. And what was up with that stupid scene in the forest. 'I love you, but I'm obviously a threat to your very existance, I'm going to leave you in this forest while I run away like a bitch now. Instead of you know - doing something sensible - like breaking up with you AT YOUR F***ING HOUSE!' Holy shit this book/movie is stupid. And the papercut. You're telling me there are vampires so blood starved that when a girl gets a papercut he marathon bolts straight into her? Holy damnit christmas, lest ye throw science at it and make it really bizarre and stupid, do you have any idea how many microcuts, open wounds and other injuries you get throughout the day? Vampires would be jumping people all over the place! Lets not forget the fact that with some good senses, and let's face it, Vampires have excellent senses in every walk of life, you can even smell blood through SKIN. What a retarded scene. Not to offend the misfortunate by associating them with Mrs Stephenie Meyer but she's got to be some kind of autistic to write that garbage. It's like she writes what sounds good but then doesn't read it to make sure it IS good. There's screwed up fridge logic SOAKING her pages, poor timing, bad spelling, inappropriate and disrespectful themes undercutting everything and her characters are unlikeable hypocrites. Bella is an ugly plain girl, so naturally she's so hot every guy wants to talk to her even though no one wants to be her friend in a yokel lil village in arizona even though they all are. How will she ever make friends the poor thing, even though she sneers at anyone who isn't edward for so much as talking to her. If Stephenie Meyer wrote this as a satire, I'd call it good, but it's not, so it isn't. Bella/stephenie is so stuck up her own ass she cant even see what she's saying/writing. Pure and simple, it's bad writing. @Mustachio: That was the most prominent story of Dracula, who if I recall may or may not have been a legitimate vampire until people jumped on that particular bandwagon. However, it was definitly not the first instance of a vampire story of which there are millions with just as many variations of what exactly constitutes a vampire. However, in modern times we have solid definitions of what an Elf is, what a dwarf is, and certainly what a Vampire is. To break these conventions in an original and inspriring way is fine, but to simply slap 'vampire' on the cover just to draw a crowd does not make Edward a vampire. Dracula is an awesome vampire, and while he may even be 'thee' vampire for a lot of people, he isn't the yard by which all vampires are measured. Meyerpires suck for wholefully different reasons than because they're not the typical vampire. They follow no string of logic, she scienced them but kept magic in. He's dead but apparently he's not since he can impregnante a woman...just....just a whole laundry list of shit that doesn't make sense. And in her attempt to avoid an unhappy ending with an immortal family, renesmee is an eternal child. So Jacob'll be knocking a 1 year old with a 40 year old mind in a 14 year old's body for all eternity (This may or may not be an exaggeration, I didn't pay to much attention to this heaping pile of shit). Oh but no, it's alright. Renesmee is a superbrain child! She's born with everything she'll ever need to know! And she'll remain a child so that Edward and Bell can be proper mother and father for all eternity! Nevermind that Renesmee will never have a childhood despite being in an immature biological state for all eternity and the fact that she was born with all of life's wisdom right from the get go. Life's a struggle and a gift, she is born into this world with neither. She has nothing to struggle through, nothing to shoot for, she has nothing to grow into, and she doesn't even have a choice who she'll love when she grows up. Raise your hand if you've had and stuck with one relationship your whole life. In her one attempt to avoid any sort of fridge logic, she made it worse.

here is the inspiration for Dracula- Vlad III Dracula. I've seen a lot about him on History Channel.
