What website was that on, brainlessidiots.com?

Harry Potter is awesome, whereas my urine is better than Twilight.

I don't like either but I know that I'd rather spend my money watching wizard magic as opposed to a bunch of fruity teenage vampires who sparkle.

Teenage girls I tell you. I dare say they are the most spineless and easiest to market to, second only to prepubescent children. My opinion of course.

I prefer Twilight because I am stupid brainless idiot :evil:

No actually it is because I didn't care for the books of Harry Potter and I was mentally ill when it first came out so I ignored it just like every other thing that was going on around me. Can't be bothered to watch it now really. I'd rather watch old stuff...

Actually I like Twilight because it's got an interesting storyline and I liked the books. I do have a brain, but it's full of ADD so any book that can keep my attention for more than a minute must be good!

I hate Harry Potter, his red headed friend, the main villain, and that endlessly annoying Snape.

They are indeed easy to market to. You can pretty much sell them anything.

Slapping the name of a famous celebrity on it usually does the trick. ;)

Actually, I'm in the business of selling things at the moment and may very well do that :P

I'll pick a dead one, though, because they won't be able to sue me then ;)

Overall Harry wins, but I preferred reading the Twilight Books than watching the film .

I confess that I do have a thing for Edward whats his face vampire. I like vampires in general. Mmmmm Yummy yum yum yum. :oops:

I'm a guy, and I've read both of them (ex wanted me to read Twilight). Overall, Harry Potter is better, but to be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of either one.

Harry Potter. I hate Twilight (and so does Stephen King).

What the hell is this? This is BS. Twilight is nowhere near the same level as Harry Potter. And I have actually read the first Twilight book. Not that I am a major fan of Harry Potter, but seriously, they're poles apart in terms of quality.

I think that question is better posed to the 'suits' in the studio offices, not the fans.

Obviously they are two separate stories, two stories who have nothing to do with each other and can't rationally be compared.

A better question:

"Which studio can get people to put more money into HP or Twilight?"

As for the storyline... I know several other series that blow both out of the water. G-forbid any studio ever gets their grubby little hands on any of them!
