Go Harry Potter And Twilight! discussion

Wow. I joined this group called Twilight Haters, just to see why they hate twilight so much, and look what I found! It was written by someone called "Maris". And, even though I like Twilight, this makes sense! Some of it at least.

Here it is:

This story is like a fairy tale written by a seven year old in every way. The romance is told from a point of view as if the author has never seen or heard of love or lust in her entire life. Also, the plot is very banal. How many books have been written about forbidden love? Love that just can’t be? It’s getting old. The grammar and editing are the worst I’ve ever seen. The storyline is creative but the situations go all to well for anything to be realistic. And then when something does go wrong, it’s what everybody’s expecting as the worst circumstance possible.
2. The plot is the most clichéd, unoriginal, predictable one that I’ve read in my lifetime. More so than any Disney® movie or Mother Goose® story. Edward, the main male character, is a super handsome vampire with extraordinary powers: mind-reading, super-speed, sparkles in direct sunlight, and is immortal. Another fact is that Edward is sexy, strong, and supernaturally gifted – the fantasy of many teen girls. Appealing, right? Let’s make this disgusting story even more perfect: Edward is obsessed with Bella (the main female character), he can’t read her mind (she’s special!), Bella’s scent is especially alluring, and Edward’s makeshift vampire family instantly loves her. Oh yes, and her best friend Jacob Black, who is a werewolf (mortal enemies of vampires) is also madly in love with her. Add him to the pile of boys from school who are falling head over heals in love with mysterious, introverted Bella. And Bella’s klutziness, dark hair, pale skin, and excessive shyness make her even more attractive, so that virtually everyone who sees her falls hopelessly in love with her. [This is all?:] very immature and impractical of the author. Bella is just a way for desperate teenage girls to become an alluring, mysterious young woman with whom every boy is in love.
3. Despite having everything any girl could wish for, Bella is a selfish, whiny brat. She is very self-absorbed and not a heroine at all. Bella is definitely not a good role model for the girls who pine over these books. Bella is constantly a damsel in distress and is repeatedly saved by others. She has no element of independence or emotional strength in her personality whatsoever. Bella is really pathetic. And the fact that she’s a world-class klutz makes everyone feel worse for her than they already do. So at this point everybody is knee-deep in pity for poor Bella.

What we need is someone who has never heard of twilight, and who isn't planning on becoming either a hater or a lover of it.

yesh... but im stilll in luc with it!

Wait, I'll find more.

"You know you hate Twilight if,

1242586 1. mention of how beautiful Edward is precipitates homicidal tendencies

2. reading breaking dawn caused a desire to scratch out your own eyes if it meant getting away from Stephanie Meyers attempt at softcore porn.

3. You laugh (and cry/die a little inside) every time a rabid fangirl gushes about how she wishes she was Bella 1458356 4. you want to punch someone when they say how good twilight is.
5. the story is so bad, you don't even bother reading breaking dawn 6. You keep reading the series, and peridocally checking the website for new points to make fun of. 1220784 7. Every time another book mentions how perfect someone is, you hurl it at the nearest wall and cry.

8. You've contemplated buying the whole series only to burn it and dance around the fire. "

What do you think?

Hmm...

...?

dot dot dot question mark.

REPEATING SCENE: BELLA GOES WITH THE CULLENS TO PLAY BASEBALL (summary in about 5 sentances)

Edward takes Bella to a big field. The Cullens are playing baseball. They are all very good, and can play extraordinarily well thanks to their vamp DNA. Some strange vamps come to the baseball field to talk to them. The Cullens know that the other vamps are bad and run away from them.

confused...
puzzled...
confuzzled...

I still love Twilight.

I love Twilight
but hate Bella, Breaking Dawn, and Edward

YOU HATE EDWARD? How is that possible? I can see why you hate Bella, and Breaking Dawn wasn't that good. BUT EDWARD?

Yeah, Bella is definitely hate-able, BD too, but Edward? Other than the fact that he's a creepy stalker..

hahahaha i agree!!!!

=D

Well technically I don't HATE Edward there is just a lot he does I disagree w/ and I like Jacob better

Geeze, I just started re-reading Twilight, and I love Bella! She's adorable! I don't get how you's hate her :(

Oooh, maybe is jealousy over Edward...ok, I understand now lol

No, we are NOT jealous of her. Please. Maybe SOME people are, but I'm not. She's just..adorable?! No WAY.

Yes! She's funny! Falling over all the time, dropping things, slipping, dangerous in gym, totally un-coordinated - all that while trying so hard to act dignified, and failing miserably! Funnyness.....

I guess I'm on my own here lol

Hopefully. :P

ok the only things i like about bella are that she is funny, clumsy, and sorta responsible.
but other than that, she's whiny, always wants to get her own way, hates attention a little TOO MUCH (i mean, she's whiny about that, too), and just sorta annoying.

Yes, and also, Bella is VERY selfish. I mean, in Breaking Dawn, she and Edward pretty much call up all their closest vampire friends and say, "Hey, we did something most vamps consider illegal, so will you come die for our daughter?" Seriously. She'd sacrifice the whole world for Edward (and vice versa), and wouldn't even care about the billions of people who died as long as Edward was fine. That's just not right. She's an awful person, I don't care if she would do all that for 'true love.'

.....well, what can I say to that??........hehe

Well, I mean, Bella has some good qualities too. She stands up for people she loves, she cares about people, she's smart, and usually can control her temper.

Yeah...exactly! lol thanks for that! Hmm maybe I only like her because I'm selfish, too.

Well, I hate her, so I find myself disagreeing to all of them, even if they might be true.

Hi i am new to this group and i know the title is Go TWILIGHT and Harry P But Swati told me to join anyway. truth is i HATE twilight ever since the first book i have hated it and when i finished the first one i thought NOTHING can be worse than this... guess what i was wrong. i didn't like the other ones in fact they got worse.
