Twilight
 

damm that movie twilight was the worst vampire movie I have ever seen. It stunk.

I bit the bullet and actually watched the movie. However, I haven't read any of the books and don't really plan to.

The movie... Honestly, everything in the movie struck me as unnatural. From Bella's reaction to Edward, the relationships with the characters, the dynamic, the editing, the dialogue, the cinematography, everything. Honestly, they didn't even try with this movie.

There's so much to say against the movie that it would literally take a twelve page essay to fully articulate everything it failed at.

As for the idea of Twilight, it's not that bad. But it needed a better writer for sure and the movie needed a better production team.

I know the books are supposed to be really bad, but even bad books usually get a half assed attempt to a faithful movie adaption. This movie, however, was purely terrible. Don't watch it. I'll just save you the trouble.

Don't even start me on that fucking pathetic excuse for a "novel".
Since when have vampire fucking sparkled when the sunlight hit them? Eh?
Okay, I do like the odd vampire romance novel, but when I think of vampire romance, I think about the vampire controlling the human and seducing them and then when they go in the sunlight, they burst into flames!
It's a fucking disgrace to the world of vampiric novels.
Hell, the books by Anne Rice are better than the ones by Stephanie fucking Meyer.
Fucking bint.

Vampires are just pretentious Zombies.

Your MOM is a pretentious zombie.

IN BED.

Fortune cookies are yummy.

I found Twilight to be entertaining on the same level as fashion magazines at the doctor's office. As in, I read it because its there, but feel a little stupider when I'm finished.

I plan to watch it with friends, and accompanied by RiffTrax. XD

I'm so sick of this Twilight shit.
I went to a mall the other day and there was that Twilight shit EVERYWHERE! It was a bit annoying.

Yeah; I think they want to make it into the new "Harry Potter" or POTC or something, but I don't think it's going to fly. :/

At least, I -hope- it doesn't.

Ok, I'm curious.
Twilight or Queen of the Damned - which is the bigger piece of shit?

Jillian: Oooh, now that -is- a toughie.

twilight was to teeny bopperish for me.

Wait wait wait.. Queen of the who? Oh right, Queen of the shit movies. And Twilight's got the King of the shit movies locked as well.

worst vampire movie ever....not to mention fright night.

I took Lakita's daughter to see it and I have to agree fully. It didn't make any sense and I was bored out of my mind the whole time I was watching it. It was like watching a really bad middle school play but with worse special effects.

This like asking me to divide by 0. It's impossible to answer!

I think I hate Twilight more, but that's because Queen of the Damned was bad enough that it made me laugh a little.

Twilight was so bad that it went beyond the "So bad it's funny" point.


Anyway, I want to rant a bit.

I agree with KontanKarite, and I'd like to add that the movie was nothing special.

If you break a movie down in to the four parts that can potentially make a movie good (Plot [Shawshank Redemption], Acting [Citizen Kane], Action/Special Effects [The Matrix], and "That's a neat idea" [Jurassic Park]) then you realize Twilight has none of the basic elements.

The acting is mediocre at best, and I couldn't empathize with any of the characters at all. I felt like Bella deserved most of what she got in the movie, and I felt like Edward was a complete tool. Every girl I know, walked out of the movie wanting to date Edward. No guy I know walked out of the movie wanting to date Bella.

With movies like The Bourne Identity (really good fight scenes), the Matrix (really cool special effects), Titan A.E. (really good C.G.), and 28 Days Later (really cool blood/gore type of effects), there's no excuse not to have at least decent effects. Until a few moments ago, I forgot that Twilight even had special effects, and the fight scenes were horrid. Nobody fights like how they fought in the movie. Not even cracked out super-human vampires!

The "that's neat idea" isn't there either. A vampire romance? That's never been done before. Oh wait this seems familiar.

And... The plot... Well, it just speaks for itself.

I never saw Twilight or Queen of the Damned. I intended to go see Twilight, just to feed the hype or whatever, but then I was like, "Wait, this is Twilight....yeah, no." A couple of my friends saw it though, and they said they had to leave early, it was so bad. I did read the Twilight books, though, because I have 2 friends who wouldn't talk to me until I read Twilight, which vaguely had potential that it never lived up to.

I'm not really a vampire fan....

You don't read a fashion mag, you look at it. No wonder you feel stupid.

The acting in Twilight was painfully bad and the story was very weak. The only decent vampire film I've seen in a while was "30 Days of Night".

30 Days of Night was a shitty film based on a fantastic 3 issue comic book series.

It's only redeeming quality is the guy who gels his hair with blood. 'Cause that's just bad ass.

EDIT: Then again considering the merit of most vampire films, I guess comparatively, it's pretty decent.

I'm not talking about W, Vogue, etc. I mean the old issues of Cosmo and Seventeen, but I guess now that you mention it, those fall under something like "Women's Interest." The kind of magazines that have articles about Twilight...

Ah i see, yeah I getcha now.

what the hell is the glitter in sunlight thing? thats when the movie was just became totaly stupid

i didnt like 30 days of night. i like the vampire as a sex object rather then nosterfutu kind...

Hear, hear! For several weeks around the time of the film's release there was an enormous assortment of Twilight merchandise that confronted shoppers the moment they entered the local Borders store. Perhaps most irksome of all were those opportunistically published booklets purporting to be the authoritative tomes regarding the actors that portrayed Edward and Bella. Absolutely atrocious.

Seeing as I have no intention of ever watching Twilight, unless I am in the company of like-minded acquaintences and with access to spirits, Queen of the Damned will retain its dubious distinction as the worst vampire movie I have ever seen.

YAY! I've been telling that my friends :)

Twilight because the cullens weren't even vampires! They are just Sparkly Fairies with Fangs!

Has anyone seen the commercials where they have the girl with her lips zoomed in on and she says 'vampire'? Am I the only one who laughs uncontrollably when that commercial comes on?

You certainly are not, though I also find I have the urge to headbutt her. Hard.

Hehe! Glad I'm not alone!

But back to Twilight, how do they plan to keep Robert Pattinson young for that long? I think he's gonna start looking older with his films, how are they gonna fix that little bit?

Umm.. if you've never seen the Curious case of Benjamin Button...

Then I guess you wouldn't know, cosmetics do quite a lot.

I've been meaning to see that movie, but still, there are some things you notice about someone even with cosmetics.

I had a similar opinion.

Ha. Better than what I was thinking. I had it figured that this Robert fellow was a robot from the future sent back in time to destroy Hollywood.

Frankly though, I don't want to see them continue with the movies.

I wish I could say the same, I have a roommate however who has Twilight on constantly with the posters and the buttons and the other merchandise targeted towards lonely single women hoping for Prince Sparkle to carry them away.

Sadly enough I was sucked into seeing it at midnight for the sake of my sister going... I should've never moved back home, then my parents couldn't guilt me into doing things for them... =sigh= I can't wait to leave again... I miss DC...

Actually, the books are OK. Definitely not the best ever written, but it's a cute story. If one wants unrealistic love with a happy ending, go for it (though the sparkly vampires are all sissys!)!
The movie, on the other hand, sucked. The actress who played Bella was a good choice, but everyone else pretty much sucked, and the experience did not get improved by the hordes of rabid fangirls in the cinema, screaming every time Edward was on screen.

Yes Bella was a good cast. Mainly for one reason, that actress has such a bitchy/whiny/annoying voice, she's perfect for the role as Bella, since Bella's character annoyed me to the 9 gates of hell.

Haha, yeah, Bella was really annoying from time to time.
Though, on another note, I didn't really like the actor who played Jacob. I mean, he was kinda alright, but he just wasn't the right one. He simply didn't have Jake's awesomeness (the werewolfes are so much cooler than the sissy sparkling vampires).

I'd have to say Queen of the Damned.

He's in his 20's. He won't change much in the next 5 years.

Eh...she's pretty, and sort of "average" looking for a movie star, but she's just a terrible actress.

Yes, I've seen Twilight, and she's horrible.

They originally planned on casting Emily Browning for the role.

I don't know if she's a good actress or not, but she is breathtaking.

She is pretty good. She was Violet in The Series of Unfortunate events movie, and she just did The Uninvited and I thought she did awesome in that. The movie was pretty chilling, and she did an awesome job in her role.

That's cool.
I guess she would have been better than the girl playing Bella now.

I don't know what happened, as far as I knew she was Stephanie Meyer's #1 choice... I don't like that other girl... I feel that Emily has this ethereal beauty to her which would just make her pop... you know? Maybe that's why they didn't pick her though, because she'd steal the show!

They're doing a Rifftrax of it? I never thought I'd say this, but I may actually watch it now. XD
