The Twilight Saga


Recommended Posts

I love how everyone says the books are terrible when their really aren't. If you guys are just pissed because your vampires are ruined' date=' get the f[b'][/b]uck over it. I like the vampires in Twilight. Everyone has different types of mythical creatures like I said before.

 

Also, I did like Transformers 2. It was a great movie; I have no idea why everyone thought it sucked. Same goes for G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

 

It inst here point of view on vampires that has us all peeved. Its the fact that the story is A. Overdone and B. People take these books way to seriously.

@A: Overdone? What the fuck? This was the first series that had a idea like this. I must be missing something.

 

@B: Not where I come from. Everyone I know that read these books, know it's only a book. And the ones that do take it seriously are the ones that will probably never have a boyfriend in life.

 

There I rest my case. In my opinion, one of the best series there is. Probably my fourth favorite book series. And I still think the girls are hot.

Hello? I read the book.

 

If I say it's sheet it's not because I'm pissed at vampires being turned into overpowered pansies, it's because the book is funking sheet.

 

I already cited a book I read which I liked that was in a much similar genre.

 

In addition to the article which I think summed up the story's problems when Jacob names the weird vampire baby Nessie, Bella pretty much try to murder him the only thing that saves Jacob is that his friend takes the attack, breaking his shoulder and collar bone.

 

 

Now then, if I had a kid, my best friend giving it a potentially insulting nickname will not cause me to almost murder him.

 

But more important than all of the wimpified vampires, it's bland heroine, and it's simillarity to bad fanfiction, the worst thing is it's boiring.

 

Boring, boring, boring.

 

I tried to read the thing twice and could never finish it, a better book would come out, I pick up that one, and then I never get interested enough to pick it up.

 

I've read erotica with more mentally stimulating stories.

I suppose Halo 3 made sense and Naruto should not be cut out of his own series, too?

 

Look, I don't give a damn about what vampire canon got screwed by Twilight (except maybe the sparklies. That's just ridiculous). The genre that Twilight is in (not the abstinence porn genre, the supernatural romance thingy genre) is one that intrigues me a lot - the problem is that a pile of unedited paper that the author freely admits is half-lifted from pre-existing works has become a world-wide phenomenon, spawning a frenzy of similar media that is EVEN WORSE.

 

Oh, and I leave you with this:

I'll say this. I read the first book, fully.

With that, I can say this.

I fully agree with Nexev. The book was, not just sh*t, but beyond it.

Truly.

 

It was boring, mainly talking about this girl who is single and... meh, she finds this dude whom everyone is like, "OHMIGWASH!" over, and somehow, they get together and how he tries to protect her, and there also happens to be another dude in there somehow. Lol<3triangle? And they both try to protect her from other dudes, while fighting each other in some stupid way.

 

Also, about those sparkles. I could handle the gel, paleness, and sh*t, but sparkles? There is a certain line that must not be crossed. The sparkles, they crossed the line.

 

Actually, I'll just stop there. I'm just gonna say, that Twilight was one of the worst book series, if not the worst, of all time.

I read the first and second books because I didn't want to be biased. Both were shitty, and the only good thing about them were the fact that the werewolves were the most badass things in there. The vampires were the worst, completely. :/ Vampires are deadly beasts of the night, not glitterbugs.

Wait till the next book.

 

Were dragons glitter with all the colors of the randow and breath cool relazing sunshine, and have treasetroves not of treasure which they guard jealously but candy which they give freely.

 

But the plot will get darker.

 

SOMEONE HAS STOLEN EDWARDS LIPGLOSS!

 

Who could it be? The very world of vampire cosmetics will be threatened forever.

Twilight destroyes the image of vampires to everyone.

 

Watch in the next book they all ride rainbow unicorns to candy island and sing songs about friendship.

 

Excuse me, I now have to read Cirque du Freak.

 

Aren't vapires supposed to be creatures of the night? Then why is a hair gel-using "vamp" walking around in broad daylight?

The books are a pile of mediocre fail.

 

 

I mean seriously' date=' she got the damn idea for them from some stupid dream she had. Having no writing experience whatsoever, she decided to vomit up this [s']novel[/s] book bad fanfic hellspawn.

 

Also, "Saga"? lolno

 

I'm going to be fair here. Meyer didn't have a high opinion of the story, writing it merely for fun. I can't fault here for writing fanfiction IF she kept it as fanfiction. However her friend bugged her into getting it published.

 

This wouldn't be so bad even if it wasn't for the LEGIONS OF FANHELLSPAWNS.

 

They have no taste and look kinda creepy.

I just figured out the sparkle thing.

 

 

Ten thousand years ago, little Jeffery (the first vampire) was making a Mother's day card.

 

Jeffery was 6 at the time, so we cannot blame him.

 

Jeffery liked glitter but when he made the card he tripped and the glitter got all over him, fusing with his DNA.

 

His mom, being the nicest and awesomest mom EVER, cast a spell that removed the sparkles, and they lived happily ever after.

 

However this also happened somewhere in Venus and after a series of HILARIOUS hjinks involving soap opera love scandals, abortion, and attempted genoicdes. The two lines meet and the two recessive sparkle genes fused into a dominant sparkle gene.

 

Because when it's vampires I don't have to pretend I am using actual science.

 

Anyway they are waiting for Vampire Jesus to come so he can die for their sins and remove the sparkle gene forever.

 

Thier is also a different one involving the sparkles were usen as a lure, it drew fangirls near thier sexy shiny body and then when they were close... chomp!

 

Of course that is what I would do, not what Edward would do.

 

He would use the light to subsitute for a rhinestone studded codpiece.

 

Oh Edward, you silly Sexual Deviant.

 

Anyway the best thing they ever did was partially inspire Generation Dead and let Jinx make this t-shirt

The funny thing is according to Twilight logic, This is actually a feasible explanation.

I have read the entire Twilight series. Book to book, cover to cover. Sometimes even rereading specific moments as I went, just so I could make sure I really read what I read.

 

I don't hate it because it ruined Vampires, even though it did.

 

I hate it because it is legitimately terrible. The love interest is way too cliche (though fanwomen will tell you he's the "perfect guy", which is boring in and of itself), the heroine is a whiny, non-developing, bland excuse for a main character that failed to get even remotely interesting, and the one thing that you could have possibly looked forward to (big battle at the end of the fourth book) was completely pussied out of.

 

Not to mention the grammatical errors, the poor descriptive quality, and the overall shoddy writing.

 

I can understand that it was her first novel. But as has been previously stated, she could have at least had it properly edited, and I could forgive it slightly if it weren't for people constantly fangasming over it when there are thousands of other books out there that are far more well-written.

I did feel a bit put off trying the book series by the hype around the films. I'll stick to trying to get through the other Vampire Books I've brought first, and then maybe consider checking it out when I see it second hand. (I'm not paying full price for any book)
