Twilight The Movie

[Strix]

Also I'm confused as to why chicks think that dude is so hot.  He looks completely ordinary to me.

It is just that Hollywood decides someone is going to be promoted as 'hot' and the masses just think what they're told to think? 

Apparently you missed the whole "payola" scandal in the radio industry. It's all about mass marketing and very little about actual beauty.

It's not what he looks like, it's who he is.  Dangerous and different, yet still non-threatening.  The best of both Tweener fantasy worlds.

And Bella, what is her problem? Yeah, she is supposed to be a teenage girl, but she was annoying beyond belief.

I don't know if you've actually seen any teenage girls lately, but they're all annoying beyond belief.

I almost went to the bathroom to puke, but sadly I was forcibly made to watch that movie by the female pack around me. I'd rather play "Plumbers wear no ties" on 3D0 while eating my snorted boogers than watch this again. 

My first thought was that I was witnessing a festival of non-communication. Characters were talking to each other, yeah, but there were nothing communicated. In fact, I felt like it was a haphazard smorsgasbord of nothing. And it bothered me beyond belief.

And Bella, what is her problem? Yeah, she is supposed to be a teenage girl, but she was annoying beyond belief. And the guy is a vampire? What about... RUN LIKE HELL?!

A truly horrendous film. The clock was more interesting.

Actually I thought the movie (and I guess then the books) were like making a kid version of Anne Rice.  Same sort of emo vampires, although in this case body glitter was substituted in for homo-eroticism.

I don't really think he's hot. I think he kind of looks like he has down syndrome.

He didn't want to turn her because he thought becoming a vampire would make her lose her soul and become evil and not get into heaven. He hated himself and the fact that he was turned.

Mostly everything about the book doesn't get conveyed to the movie. The movie sucks ass but I like the books.

Your taste in guys is well established.

The GF went ga-ga over the books but hates the movies; to keep pace, I had to read the books and allowed myself to be dragged to the movie, but came to the same conclusions- the book would have been awesome, sans "sparkle" effect, and whoever did casting for the movie needs to be dragged out and shot- mid-'90s Keanu Reeves would have had more screen presence than the kid with the huge forehead and caterpillar over his eyes, and Kristen Stewart sucks, miserably- the best thing that can be said about her is that she just cannot act.

Did somebody say Lady Ga-ga?

"Whoa.... it's Count DROCK-ulah."

Only you could come in and make a thread about Twilight even more gay.

You make Martinus look like Chuck Norris.

You're so funny, Neil.
