Like most teenage girls I have discovered this book series and fell madly in love.
But I feel guilty for loving it and being apart of the mindless masses u.u

What are your opinions on the book, and the fandom?

I've read the first book, my friend who is also a guy lent it to me.

I didn't think it was too bad, I'd read the others, though I wouldn't buy them.

I totally love the books,it's perfect combination of humor,action,sadness and most of all:Romance.They are the most romantic books I have ever read.you shouldn't feel guilty at all for loving them.They are just wonderfull so it means that you have good taste.And I can't wait for the next book that will come in fall 2008 and I want to see the movie.:)

I haven't read them and I imagine I never will since the people I know who read them are the girls who read things like Tokyo Mew Mew and that godawful drama-con malarky. Plus it's about vampires, so the story's always the same (some girl falls in love with some bloke who turns out to be vampire and they go on adventures with a smart mouth dog etc etc.)

I've read the first two books, and I find them too sappy for my tastes. Every page is about how they either can't live without each other or how much they loooooooove~ each other.

In summation: Boring.

New Moon is... well, the end was good. If I read New Moon over, I read the part when Alice shows up to the end. I haven't read Eclipse over yet (because everyone wants to borrow it *rolls eyes*).

I hated this book. One of the worst books I ever read. And I like vampire stories.

Bella = most annoying Mary Sue ever.

And the sparkly vampires? Give me a break. I know I'm not the demographic for this series, but still...even my fifteen year old self would've kicked the **** out of Bella.

As for the movie........I'm sort of amused by the fact that Cedric Diggory is Edward. He looks like he's stoned in the pictures I've seen of this movie.

Well, I, myself, have a love-hate relationship with the Twilight series, but Twilight definitely can't be one of the worst books you've ever read. In all likelihood, you should probably read more if Twilight is, indeed, the worst book you've ever read.

Hmm, there is a thread on this series? Well my girlfriend is into them...just like every other girl whom I know... I really have no interest in reading them personally, but I won't make a judgment on books I haven't read. Buuuttt, from what my girlfriend says they just sound like chick romance novels that everyones into.

The first time I saw the book I wanted to read it, but suddenly everyone became a Twilight's superfan & they don't stop talking about it now. Well, I do NOT like when somebody keeps talking and talking and talking about the same thing, it sounds like a hypnosis and does not attract me. It's like Book Thief (but fortunately I read it before becomes superfamous). Anyway. There's also the chance of hearing from somebody parts of the book I've not read yet. Maybe I try when it is not a fever anymore, but, by now, I won't read.

These books are like cotton candy; no matter how much you get, even though you might pack it into a small round ball, there's still nothing in it. And yet, you still want more.

First book was good, if vapid. Second book was soul-numbing. Third one had some great humor at times and the fourth book is the better one in my opinion even though it made me laugh at some of the absurdity.

It's teen-pop fluff. You read it like you enjoy chocolate-coated candy, but too much of it is hard to stomach. Good reading in-between some heavyweights like The Brothers Karamazov or the Gormenghast novels.

Finally, looks like we won't be getting Midnight Sun any time soon as the author got into a fit over a leaked manuscript.

Yes, the books are extremely light and fluffy reading but I can't get behind a series in which the female protagionist basically gives up her identity and everything about her 'all in the name of tru wuv' while the male protagionist stalks her in the name of protecting her. It's basically one long Mary/Gary Stu story.

But goddamn those fans are crazy :)

I am 25, and apparently out of the intended age demographic.

Someone at work lent me Twilight at 6:30 am, and I had finished it by 10 the same morning. I'm currently really obsessively combing the interenet for graphics and information about the movie, which i'm now really going to have to see.

No matter how light and fluffy the first book was, I consumed that book in seriously four hours. It was a bunchof cotton candy, but it was just perfect for my mood.

I've since read New Moon and Eclipse and my thoughts are more like, "Eeh."
I cant really explain why these books dont do anything for me, but it's not because of Edward leaving. It seems like the author is trying too hard to make an interesting read.

Haro!
November 27th, 2008, 10:26 PM
Watched the movie, and while I didn't like the book enough to finish it, the movie was bad. As in, usually a decent movie is better than a not-good (in my opinion) book, but the movie was just bad. Completely less watchable than the book was readable. The acting was subpar. The dialogue was simple yet delivered awkwardly by most of the actors. The camera work was uninspiring, it's like they left a camcorder on a tripod and forgot about it. Considering this book was written like a glorified screenplay, the transition to film should have been easy. And yet it failed to do so.

I'm not the intended audience, but I read the first two books and IMO they're pretty bad.

The writing is poor. The characterization and the love story are very shallow, "Oh you're so handsome, I'm so plain, oh I'm not worthy, how I love thee, I can't live without you, your gorgeous jaw, your gelled hair, your eyes..." Kill me now.

The first book had a decent start but the villain, his devious schemes, and the ending were just silly. I read that the author said she began writing after picturing the meadow scene, and it really shows - the final portion of the book is just bad, and the reasoning behind people's actions is just.... dumb.

The second book was painfully boring. The only part I actually enjoyed was
when she's alone, and it just skips ahead month by month, a very effective way to show how girls feel in those times. That was good.

I don't know if my masochist streak runs deep enough to force myself to read the other ones.

Though, I remember what it feels like to be a teenage girl in love and while parts of the book captured that drama, other parts of it failed terribly. Mostly it's the subpar writing and the characters that turned me off, there wasn't a single character I was rooting for. But when I was a teenage girl I didn't read this type of fluff either.

I know one fan in person, and she is more sensible then the online fans I've run into, who suffer from Harry Potter Syndrome; the curious disease that strikes a reader and they suffer dellusions that their favourite author is The Messiah and can do no wrong, and every word is gold. They wouldn't know good literature if it smacked them upside the head. I think the only cure is to introduce them to The Hobbit or A Wizard of Earthsea so they can see what they're missing. ;)

Wow...so I was convinced to read all of them by...people and I really feel like I wasted a good portion of my life. Those books were NOTHING but fluff. I would read..say...100 pages and the plot wouldn't progress at all. The characters feelings made no sense either. Why did Bella even like him? It never really explained that. "He was beeeeautiful"....aaand that's it? I don't get it.

Don't even get me started on the movie I was drug into. That was some of the worse acting and effects I've seen in such a hyped up movie. It's like the actors were taking themselves waaay too seriously. The ONLY thing I enjoyed was the end...where they played 15 Step by Radiohead.

I did a post about this in the Jonas brothers thread. Surprised I didn't see this one earlier. Anyway, onto my opinion.

Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn are the manifestation of a middle-aged woman's wet dream. Literally. The story, though a good premise, is written worse than a 2 year-old's christmas card. I've read all four books, enjoyed all of them, and was actually a little excited for the movie....... Until Kristen-****ing-Stewert showed up. There's more acting skill in the road kill on the interstate than that woman. I (being a male) could have been a better Bella. The most acting in that movie was at the end when she was stuttering for an hour saying: "Wh- Ah- N- Wai- N- N- N- N- NO!" Yeah... She could have just ended it after the "Ah-".

Now for my raging about the fanbase. I haven't seen this much obsession since Ruroni Kenshin and Yu Yu Hakusho first came out. My ears FINALLY stopped bleeding from watching the episode where Kurama/Hiei/Kenshin were shirtless at the anime club at my school. NOW I have to go through another year of theropy for the ringing. This fanbase is just stupid. I honestly think it's worse than Naruto now. I mean, the Naruto fanbase is huge and annoying(i.e. 20-30 year-olds going to the local card shop wearing Naruto jackets and Ninja Headbands), but at least they're not screaming constantly whenever someone mentions "Vampire", "Edward", "Twilight", or "Jacob".

Now, onto my main problem with the series(that's right, it's not the fanbase or terrible writing!), what she did to those poor poor vampires... I'm not one of those obsessed vampire fanatics who go around visiting 'Forums for the undead' or some **** and drinking tomato juice, but I do love the idea behind vampires. Evil, cunning, dark, and parasitic yet superior. But this woman just took the original story Dracula, threw it in her toilet set up dynamite held the door closed and let a torrent of **** that would put Night-shift nurses to shame fall on it, the proceeded to explode the dynamite.
This long description can be summed into one word: SPARKLY VAMPIRES.


That is all.

tl;dr: Stephanie Meyer can't write, though she has good ideas. The Fanbase makes me want to go and rip my ears off my head Van Gogh style. Sparkly Vampires.

I got this from /a/:

My girlfriend is 15 years old (3 years younger than me, don't you dare ****ing say what you're about to say). She said she wanted to come to my house to watch a movie she just bought (I'm not allowed over at her house because her parents would freak out at the idea of a fully grown man playing grab-*** with their little girl). Surprise surprise, it was ****ing Twilight.

Now, I knew she was a fan and all, but I never actually had to "confront" the problem. She spent the entire movie letting out these annoying (albeit cute) shrieks every time Edward did ANYTHING. She also gave me all sorts of fun-facts for half the movie, until I screamed "IDONTWANNAHEARIT" halfway through the movie.

Now, this just ruined her mood, and she decided to let off on me when the movie was over. "What's so wrong about liking Twilight?", she said to me. "Well, no offense, but it's just badly written wish fulfillment made by some fat virgin." Then she decided to set it off. She put on this twisted little smile, and said "Jamal, honey, you watch anime". You see where this is going, right?

I couldn't really fight any of the points she brought up. I mean, she knows I watch **** like Minami-ke and Kannagi, so saying anime is better written is out of the question. She even brought up how most of the audience for the newYatterman movie premiere we went to at comic-con were a bunch of shrieking fangirls, and how I spent the whole time we were there telling her fun facts about the character's origins.

How the hell do I get back at her?

That's one way of going about the issue...
Yeah lol, if you like it...you like it. No point in starting an argument how much "it sucks/good" lol Some people just have different taste
True that. Some people just like to start an argument because its the hot topic at the moment. Having nothing personal against the series or the movie, fans will watch whatever they like. It's almost similar to making fun of those who like a certain style of anime or particular series'. The modern form of witch hunting has manifested itself yet again.

Part One:

Why is there a deer? Oh, I guess Ed eats deer instead of people? ...

Yes, he just caught it.

Bella seems to be planting a cactus. I'm not sure why, because there are many cacti around her.

Now, she's moving to Washington. It's very wet and dank. The complete opposite of Arizona or wherever it was she comes from.

No cacti.

Ah, she wasn't planting the cactus, she was bringing it with her. Foreshadowing?

Wow, her dad looks like a tool.

If I didn't already know the story, I'd assume this Jacob guy was gonna be the love interest. I think he'll be the one to get jealous of Ed?

LOL They gave her a big orange truck. and seriously, her dad needs to shave that mo.

This weird asian dude wants to put her on the front page?

Mike and Jessica seem weird. I cant tell if they're pretending to like her, or if they actually do like her and are just morons.

Now an Asian girl is taking photos of her. Why is she suddenly so popular?

OMG DYNAMIC ENTRY. THE VAMPS. They're all in white.

AND ED IS SO PRETTY. Bella falls in love instantly. Like, the moment she sees him.

Edward acts weird when he sees her. He seems like he's trying not to throw up. It looks like he will chunder any second. He's even trying to transfer out of the class to avoid her.

Wait, Bella is a vegetarian? *likes her even less*

Oh, and her mum is a mechanic. Instantly the best character in the movie so far.

Now Ed has stopped coming to school to avoid her.

Random scene in a factory? What?

Hahahaha she fell on her butt on the ice :lol:

Ah, the guy at the factory got eaten by the evil vamps I mean "animals".

Gee Bella drives way too fast for these conditions.

Oh wow, Ed is back. And he's even talking. He keeps staring at Bella. She seems very antagonistic to him though.

I dunno who said Bella is meant to be pretty, coz she isn't. Ed is prettier.

He keeps staring at her. What a stalker. Oh, she nearly died. Damn. He saved her. Wow, he can move fast. Ninja. Super strong too. He stopped a giant moving hunk of metal with one punch.

The other vamps are like "waaaaat" I wonder if they know it was Ed that saved her. Maybe they think she's a vamp?

Oh, Ed's dad is the doc? He's lecturing Ed.. and now Ed's lying to Bella about it. Trying to trick her. Of course she's not falling for that.

Now she's dreaming about him. OMG he's in her room? Stalker.

Okay, so Mike and Jessica are just idiots. :lol:

This teacher is weird. "A STEAMING CUP OF COMPOST!"

"It's very common. You can google it." What kind of lame line is that.

Seriously... Mike and Jessica... so retarded...

Bella tends to ignore anything anyone else says. Even if it's about her own mum. She only thinks about Ed.

They're going surfing? In washington? wtf

"radioactive spiders and cryptonite" riiiight.

Ed has more personality than I was lead to believe, but still not much.

Man, even at the beach it's all cloudy and dank.

Jacob's finally in it again. I guess I was wrong about that.

"the cullens dont come here" ooooooooh how ominous.

Speaking of ominous, what a scary story.

Now this guy at the boats is gonna get eaten. "Let's not play with our food" LAME LINE IS LAME :facepalm:

Now Bella is stalking to find out more about this legend.

OMG IT'S A SUNNY DAY! :O

Man, the Asian girl is like a stick. And Jessica has big boobies.

Oh noes Bella is being surrounded. These guys are gonna raep her... but SUPER-ED to the rescue!

No, they wouldn't actually rape her. But, if it was a fanfic, they might.

Oooh, Edward LURVES Bella. He's taking her out to dinner. But... he doesn't eat. Gee, that's not suspicious at all.

I also just realised his hair looks just like Goku's from Dragon Ball Evolution.

superplough
April 28th, 2009, 01:30 PM
She isn't asian? she looks like she is..

Anyway..

PART TWO

Ed was folling Bella. If I'v said it once, I've said it a million times. STALKER.

Wait, what? He can read minds? Ffs.... but he cant read Bella's. Sigh.

Ed is all like addicted to her. Creepy stalker guy.

Oh noes, tons of police. They found that guy in the boat shed. "Animal attack". har har

God Bella is lame. She seems to have no emotional range at all. Maybe it's bad acting, maybe she's meant to be like this. Either way it's pathetic.

Ooooh now she think's Ed is doing the attacks? Oh dear..

"The Cold One"? What? Heh. Now she's realising what he is.

That's right. Your precious Edward is a vampire.

And she still shows barely any emotion.

Aw poor Ed, she snubbed him.

Oh yeah, walk out into the forest where you'll be alone with a vampire. Real good idea.

And even now, she has the emotional range of a shrew's litterbox.

Are you afraid? "No!" Of course not! You're a vampire, of course I'm not afraid.

Hahaha he's taking her to the sunlight! Sparkle sparkle! Hahahahahah! It looks so stupid and lame! And of course Bella thinks it's beautiful. Sigh.

"I'm designed to kill" "I dont care" "I've killed people before" "It doesnt matter" "I want to kill you, Ive never wanted another human so much in my life" "Interesting" She is ridiculous!

"You're like my own personal brand of heroin" God this movie has some bad lines.

Ooooh is she gonna say the L word? Or just keep saying "I'm not afraid". Teen angst FTW.

Gah, they're as pathetic as each other.

Heheheh he's sparkling again :P

Dont forget four, Bella: "I'm an idiot"

And now they're the 'hot topic' at school. Everyone stares. What's with his sunglasses? Lol

Oh noes its so hard for us vampires to drink blood. Tear.

Ah, his 'dad' is actually the head vampire. Ah, he's a vegan vampire. Ah, I hate him.

Oh, each vamp has special powers.

Ooooooh, death stares between Ed and the old Indian dude. And now he keeps eyeing up Bella.

And of course Ed lives in this giant mansion thing. Completely anti-vampire-ish.

They're making fancy food for her! Oooh!

These vampires all look so weird. Alice is the best looking, but she acts weird.

Why would he have such giant windows if he hates sparking so much? Lots of books... oh wait they're CDs.

Dancing in the danky cloud light... every body's feeling cold tonight... it's such a lame and stupid sight... every body's so stupid in Twilight...

Ah, she's totally gonna end up going to the prom with him. And Mike or whatever will get all jealous and angry.

Can he fly or what?

There's some nice scenery but it's so dank! It looks horrible.

And they sit in a tree for ages. And of course Ed is a piano expert, I guess he's had long enough to practise...

What now? the cops are after the vampires? This'll end well...

I was right, Mike's all jealous.

Man, can Ed like teleport into her room or what?

"I like watching you sleep" yeah that's not creepy at all...

What's this? He's trying to kiss her without killing her? Omg it worked! She survived!

This guy is so creepy. How is this allowed.

"Bring in the vampire!" *cocks shotgun* :lol:

Haha, baseball. This stupid scene.

Ooooooh blonide doesn't like her one bit.

This scene is so ridiculously over the top!

And here come the EVIL VAMPS

Oh noes they're gonna kill Bella? What a shame

What's with this black dude's innapropriate accent?

The blonde guy knows Bella's human. VAMPIRE FIGHT!

The only way to stop Bella from being killed is to kill them! Ooooh! They have to save her dad? She's showing emotion! GASP!

Aww, she hurt her dad's feelings. Baw.

The evil vamps are so gonna get her.

Wow, now she's even crying.

Yeah, say goodbye to all those friends you dont even really like.

I wonder if Bella's gonna end up as a vampire by the end? That would be the "happy ending" wouldn't it? Although, there are four books, so probably not in this movie.

They're trying to trick James? Good luck. Of course it wont work. He can smell her.

Alice can see the future... she knows James is after them.

Oh dear, they killed Bella's mum? Oh, maybe not. Not yet, anyway.

She's an idiot.

She reusued that lame line from the start of the movie. Dying for someone else seems like a good way to go.

Lame.

She's dead now. There's now way Ed will show up and save her at the last minute. No way at all.

Haha, pepper spray? Sure, that's gonna do a lot.

Now he's torturing her.

Oh my GOD, Edward showed up! I totally never saw THAT coming!

James bit her? Maybe she will become a vamp. It looks like something happening anyway.

James bit Ed too eh, cannibal.

The rest of them showed up now. I guess they're gonna burn him.

She's turning! Ed has to suck the venom out? What a temptation...

He can't stop. He's gonna kill her.

Or not, you know. That's probably more accurate.

Her whole life flashes before her eyes. How lame and cliche.

Apparently she survived and is now in hospital. Her mum is there.. so she wasn't dead.

Seems like Ed made up some ******** for her mum.

"We took care of James" that means they killed him. Heh.

Oh noes, we cant be together because I'm scared I'll accidentally kill you.

Oh, yes we can. Who cares about my life being in danger.

Okay then.

I was totally right, they're going to the prom. And she looks so pretty with a dress, a huge cast, and a sneaker.

Wow, Jacob does NOT like Ed. At all.

She walks fairly well considering she has a giant cast on one leg.

Mike and Jessica are idiots. Just in case I didn't say that already.

How Bella is expected to DANCE with that cast thing on, I do not know. Yet she manages it.

She wants to become a vamp? Oh dear.

Heh, most movies end with true love's kiss. Not true love's vampire bite.

Oh, he wont do it. I guess I'll have to wait for the sequel for that.

I work in a book store and everyone and their mom had been talking about Twilight for a while. I hadn't read it for the longest time but our store was throwing a party for the release of the fourth book. I was going to be involved so I figured I'd better be familiar with it. I read up to the third book...well, half of the third book anyway before I stopped. I still don't see what the big deal about it is. It's an okay series and I didn't like it enough to love it...or even hate it for that matter.

Bella is annoying, Edward is Mr. Perfect...their romance is irritating and overly dramatic. I liked the character of Jacob, but even he had his moments where he became an overbearing bucket of hormones. Whatever. This book series is perfect for teens. I can see why it appeals, but it's not for me. Don't get my wrong though--I love vampire stories and romance. Twilight just wasn't my cup of tea.

You should have known the fandom was weird when they insist twilight's well written but can't for the life of them explain way it is.

And then there Jacob's Imprinting which does not at all resemble imprinting in the animal kingdom whatsoever. Wikipedia Meyers can you use it!?

I can’t wait until Eclipse gets released on DVD! So far it’s the best movie out of the saga. It’s a shame that it’s going to be awhile before Breaking Dawn part one gets released in the theaters.

I used to think Anne Rice style vampires were kinda cool. Twifags ruined that for me. Thanks so much. Not that twilight is anything like the Anne Rice novels but the conversation goes like this.

"Oh yeah I like Anne Rice her books were pretty alright."

"Whose that?"

"You know. Anne Rice. Interview with a Vampire. Lestat?"

"OH HEY YEW MUST LIEK TWILIGHT TOO HURR DURR SO DO I"

"*sigh*"

I still like Nosferatu, so until Edward gets into a massive, disfiguring car accident I guess I'm okay.

Cant wait till they have a movie about Edward eating through Stephanie's stomach to get to the babby.

Also, the "vampire" and "werewolf" are supposed to be based on guys she liked in school. Obviously the main character is total self insertion.
Mormon vampires....

The books are okay as long as you count them as romance and not horror(which most people do because it has monsters). Honestly, it's not the books I hate, it's the fanbase because about half of them are FREAKING INSANE. For example, a shuriken thrown at someone's ear for not liking the books.

Too bad Meyers didn't hook Bella up with the werewolf kid though, because they make a better couple.
