I invited that hp/twilight crossover girl to the site. Hurray for me!

 

I seriously hope you're being sarcastic. Cause if not....in before ban.

 

I wish i did though

 

There were only two good things in the books, actually only one for the other was only in the movie. The first was the description of vampires as predators especially with even their smell being attractive to humans. The second one, only in the movie, has got to be the Volvo C30. Sweet.
P.S: I think it is at the end of book 2 and again at the end of book 3 when they show most unique vampire abilities, meanning at most one per vampire, all of them are covered in the Harry Potter books.

 

I've been slogging my way through the stories to A) shut people up and B) do things to it via fanfic that will make fan girls cry and want to gouge out their mental eyes.
Frankly, the series is shit/Mormonism in a can and it hurts to read it. However, the reward will hopefully be worth it.

Great parody of it called The Most Popular Book in the World.

 

Hahahaha, oh, Twilight. I'm so amused that there's a DLP thread about this franchise.

I went to see the midnight release of the movie with about 8 friends and we laughed and booed our way through it - we all stood up and hissed when Edward first came on, it was great.

I have read the books - they're perfect for basically turning your brain into a vegetable for a few hours, and killing a few brain cells along the way.

Cleolinda's Twilight section on livejournal is hilarious. If you have someone who wants you to read the books, read her stuff instead and you'll have all the best parts anyway.

Also, has anyone else noticed that Father Cullen (Carlisle) looks almost exactly like Ken (as in Barbie, yes)? I think it's the hair...

There's also a "best of Robert Pattinson" video series on youtube:

There's like 9 parts if you look in the "related videos" section... Though I think the creator may be an actual fan of the books/movie. He says some pretty hilarious stuff. Also, this:

Really, at times the Twilight stuff is so funny I start crying from laughing so hard. And then I realize some people take it seriously... and I just cry.

 

... are we still talking about this garbage?

 

At least its halfway amusing garbage. Though LOL at the actor hating the character. That should have spelled out instant fail.

 

I'd hate it too if I had to play a 110 year old virgin that cums his pants when a mary sue walks into the room because of the way her blood smells.

 

That's how I feel too. I actually really enjoyed the books -- they're hilarious. That they're not supposed to be only makes them all the funnier. And the style is very easy to read, much like HP. They're like a cross between Harry Potter, Cassandra Claire's crappy fantasy series, and a trashy romance novel. If nothing else, they're interesting.

It really, really concerns me when I hear that some people are actually taking it seriously, though. Not just because it shows appalling bad taste -- that I had already expected -- but because of all the weird Morman values Twilights based off of, and what terribly poor role models Edward and Bella make. The thought of thousands of little girls looking to them as an example of a desirable relationship is horribly concerning.

Amusingly enough, the guy who plays Edward seems to have gotten his character dead on. Maybe I should actually see the movies? I dunno, I've been hearing mixed things, but I'm kind of worried they'll induce vomiting.

 

Relax, vomiting is easy to avoid. Just focuson the car or get a girl to watch it with you. That way you can laugh at her while she cries or something.

 

My cousins love Twilight, so I made them watch it with Rifftrax(an alternate commentary of sorts). They were not amused. I laughed the whole time.

 

Somehow I'm not surprised there's a Rifftrax out for that movie. Based on what I've heard, the movie was practically made for it.

 

So I gather this thread is here for everyone's entertainment? There's nothing more fun than to make girls cry once you point out the utter trash that is Twilight.

Besides being 100% cliche, one of the main things that pisses me off is that Twilight doesn't describe really any of the character's personality - not in depth at least. Three books later, Edward's full of self-pity, Bella's pathetic, Alice likes to shop, Jasper has 24/7 PMS, Jacob is angry, Rosalie's a bitch, Esme is loving, Carlisle is kind, and Emmett's funny. Not to mention, everyone is absolutely gorgeous. Right.

 

Okay, as one of the few who's read the series, (on the belief that I'd be getting pussy afterward. Just for clarification, I didn't.) it sucks massive amounts of diseased moose wang. Exponentially more than Marcone does.

In any case, the Twilight series is made of So Yeah and I Am Not Making This Up. tvtropes.org links, anyone? In most cases, I believe that the possibility of a Dresden Files crossover with Twilight would be filed under the Nightmare Fuel section of tvtropes.org.

As far as HP/Twilight crossovers, well, we all saw it coming. Two of the most read series in current circulation, it was bound to happen. And Tehan speaks the truth. We should all leave them alone and let them put their slashy fantasies onto a hard drive in the hopes that said hard drive will melt itself and the entirety of their PC from sheer overexposure to suck.

 

I fucking hate you.

TVTropes is The-Site-That-Must-Not-Be-Linked. I just spent four hours on that site thanks to you. Good going.
