...The books are better...

HAHAHAHAHA. Wow, that's a good joke.

But seriously Stephanie Meyer's writing is shit.

I tried reading Twilight...couldn't make past chapter 2.
I hear this is going to be one of the greatest comedies of all time, actually.
I love books, I really really love books - fantasy books the most. I've read many crappy fantasy books just for the shits and giggles (and because they were there!).

I read Twilight. It was alright, an okay escape in my opinion, nothing mindblowing, but not too bad. I figured I'd get the next two when they came out. Read New Moon, okay, not great, but okay.

I couldn't read more than the first few chapters of the next one. Needless to say, it has to be pretty bad if I can't read it. Really.


I'm a bibliophile of a pretty high order. I hate the idea of scrapping books - I save the books that are bound for the scrapheap at work. Doesn't matter the condition or what the book is, I'll save it from that evil recycling bin if I can. Books are knowledge and ideas made physical, precious pieces of art that should be cared for and cultivated for the generations to come.

I gave my Twilight books away. The future needs them not.

What a heartfelt speech there. I did a slow clap for such an honorable decision.

I have never heard of Twilight until the movie came out and became a fad. Should I see the first to gain an insight on this? From what I've read and heard it sounds completely retarded.

It's really hard to take YM seriously considering the logic behind it.
I'm poor at explaining things so let me try putting this way: I find a straight male seriously liking Twilight as odd as a 32-year old chartered accountant (without kids) watching Teletubbies.

Yes I did just compare Twilight to Teletubbies but it's the only thing I could think of to regain my lost honour
Hahah i know a few guys who've read and liked twilight.
Anyway twilight is aimed for 14-20 year old girls, but that doesn't mean other people can't enjoy it.
Although it's twilight so it does.
A friend of mine dragged me into the 1st movie, even tho I didn't want to see it. But I really liked it. And the second one... So many handsome guys with amazing abs... Do want watch!

So uh what's stopping me from hating Twilight and Teletubbies?

You seem to be under the impression that he's saying the books are good.

It's not the hating I'm bothered about more than the quite vocal bashing I see often on the internet (indeed I have a couple of friends who do like Twilight but there are either a) teenage girls or b) gay - the rest don't talk about it). Surely there are better things to talk about than how sick you are of something you've probably never watched/read you know? Because it should be taken for granted, if you're a straight teenage male that you hate its guts (not debating stereotypes here but it's not a wrong assumption to make, no?).

That's just my take on things anyway.
It's because there are a lot of people in the RW who go mad about it, so there's equally going to be a lot of hate about it. And it's easier to bash people on the internet.
That's just the way i see it.
I would see your point if this was directed to the people who make websites specifically made to track down and kill people who like twilight (not even kidding). But this is a simple topic. What else are we supposed to do really?
And again we need the internet murder machine.
Seriously, the books are utter shit, how could this turn in such a "*good*" movie? ( pls don't shoot me )

Do whatever. My original post wasn't directed at this topic, just forum people in general.
