Some of you have seen this before, but those of you who haven't: Enjoy! :mrgreen:

Sthephenie Meyer is not a good writer, but she's a f*cking genious when it comes to making money.

Twilight is the equivalent of a human vacuum cleaner, it blows and sucks at the same time.

I've only seen the movies but I liked them. I've always liked Vampire movies, I enjoy Werewolf movies even more, this one just happened to have both. Sure, there where romantic scenes and what not, but I enjoyed it over all. I do however wish that there was more of a vampire race variation because in most vampire movies I've seen there are other races too like Nosferatu compared to like.. A Dracula-like vampire.

All in all, I enjoyed the series.

BLASPHAMER! There is not a single vampire in that entire series, just a bunch of immortal glitter covered teenage angst. Vampires don't sparkle, they drink blood, and they aren't such damn weaklings. Have you even read Dracula?

As for werewolves....well I quite frankly hate werewolves so I'll let you associate the series with werewolves all you want

I suppose that Bela Lugosi is to blame. He began the whole "vampires are sexy" thing.

Apparently the Host is good, so apparently she actually is a decent writer.

I never picked it up because I couldn't help but think of the vampire as a sparkly pedobear kind of guy. I couldn't bring myself to read a story that people had described as being about these two falling in love or whatever because it's a teenage girl and a century old sparklebeast.

I just... it's gross, you know? Romance is a hard sell for me, to begin with, so meh. I don't think I'll ever read Twilight.

That aside, that Alex Reads Twilight video is pretty funny!
