New Moon: Y/N?
By Majeic on 29/11/2009
So, I recently saw the new Twilight movie and would like to hear everyone's opinion on it.
Personally, I'm not a fan of the series anymore, but the movie wasn't as horrible as the first.

i dont think i would go unless it was with a girl, a really hot one, because that stuff breaks up relationships.
alot of girls actually dumped their boyfriends because they couldnt be as good as edward

The only reason I would go is if I went with a girl. Period.

oookaay, i'll assess this from my purely cynical point of view, here goes. "twilight" as a movie series is a bit of Teeny-fluff designed only to cash in on the sadly over-romanticized vampire genre in order to get young adults lusting after some over stylised, paragons of cookie-cutter mary-sue creations, we've all seen it before, we'll see it again after this series has faded into dust. All they're designed to do is to cater to a need to entertain the masses who don't desire "high literature" and the ability to engage what little thought processes they have left, i generally regard movies like "Twilight" to be just a notch above reality television in terms of the bulk of those who watch it as far as intelligence (or lack therof) is concerned. Consider this... for all the flak we've given the Star wars prequels and the matrix sequels, how much cash did they rake in at the box office? yet good movies do tend to fly under the radar from time to time, so while everybody's going "ooh, aaah" at the shiny fluff in their local boxoffice, keep your eyeballs out for -good- flicks, or better yet, find yourselves some good classics. i'm fairly certain not all of you will agree with my assessment, and it's prolly not a solid argument on my part, but this is how i see this whole "phenomenon", and the trite, mindless crud that it is. From my point of view, all i'm seeing of twilight is that it's a vampire fan-fic that managed to get a following, got published at some point, then that giant boulder rolled on from there, gathering all sorts of dookie along the way. Why did i compare it to a "fanfic", i hear folks ask? let's look at it this way.. it takes vampire myth, tweaks it so that despite 'aparrent' flaws in character/race, there are none (all the hallmarks of a mary-sue), the basic "romeo and juliet" romance plot of "forbidden love", factions and so forth... and the fact from what i've heard/seen via other folks, trailers and snippets, the emotional stability is face-palmingly tragic. i could as just as easily compared it to some webcomics i've seen, too.. truth be told it's just all the hallmarks of poor writing. I'm no wonderous writer myself, but i know bad writing when i see it. gasp face on another note: i will genuinely feel sorry for those who run roleplays who may get an influx of 'twilight-style' vampires... after the movie "Blade" came about, there was an influx of 'daywalkers' last RP i frequented.. and that was years ago.. |

We'll be having a book/film series about bisexual werewolves next.
By Winddancir on 05/12/2009
Agree with Robbie. It's just a little movie designed to rake in teen $$. And he doesn't bite. He's too fucking emo/angst to do it. And real vampires don't go *twinkle* in the sunlight. Unless you mixed glitter in with their burned ashes and throw it.
