Alright, so I go to this girl where EVERY SINGLE FREAKIN GIRL is talking about twilight. I swear, I saw like 20 twilight shirts the day it came out. I cant even talk to any of the girls that day because they were "TWILIGHT TWILIGHT OMGOMGOMG" and I'm like >
(((((. IDK what twilight even is. All I know is that its a book series >_>. I said that I didnt know what it was, one of them almost got a heart attack and 3 of them like starting lecturing me on what twilight was. Something about vampires?

Ugh. does this happen to you?

I particularly think it's over-rated...my first hour is like...all girls and they're all "Twilight OMGOMG...!!" It got annoying in the first 3 minutes.

I think it's a dumb series, but hey that's only my opinion.

I read the first book.

...

I'm not inclined in any way to continue. Though, I was the same with Harry Potter (But I at least got past the 3rd book before quitting that).

I still need to finish Vilette.

♥Hmmmmmm.. I particularly think it is over rated. It's not a bad series but it's just... average! Fan girls just make it seem like the best books they've ever seen. It will probably be one of the few series they will ever read in their whole lives... ^__^;

♥I've read the whole series and I would rate it 4-7/ 10. That's a low rating coming from someone in the "target audience" ;)

I'm jealous of the movie. My sister says it wasn't bad. Now I ask myself "Why did they BUTCHER Eragon and spend all their budget money on this **** story?"

It's about a dumb teenage girl that does dumb teenage girl **** and a bunch of rich angsty vampires. The books are semi decent. The movie is hot garbage. Seriously, it's terrible if you have any sort of sophisticated taste in film. That's all you need to know. Carry on.

most of the book-fans hated it their first time embarking on the Twilight cinematic adventure. but, if they usually gu back a 2nd time and try forgetting that a book exists...they tend to enjoy this vampyric chick-flick.

All the girls are obsessed about it. I don't even know what the big deal is, all it's just another movie about a book.

I've read all the books (Good conversational piece with any girl in my school apparently), they're pretty good actually. Nothing phenomenal. I probably only liked them, because I hadn't read a book since Eldest, and was dying for Brisingr.
The movie is awful. Doesn't follow the books well enough, moves so fast that it's hard to even try to keep up, etc.

I don't know... I'm near a giant marshmallow if th
it seems to be a rip-off of the Darren Shan series with some terrible teenage romance in it. Something about "My boyfriend is a vampire and my best friend who loves me (and is probably stalking me right now blah blah blah) is a werewolf"

Everyone dies at the end, theres an excuse not to read it, somebody on the internet spoiled the "ending" for you.

There's more than one book? 0.o

I only knew there was one. Well, I never read that one anyway.... So is this movie based on the first one or all 4?
Well all the girls at my school were excited to see it, but nobody said if it was good or not. I think the conversation on Monday is gonna all be about the movie. Then I'm going to be sad because I have no interest or knowledge of it.

All my friends keep saying "Omg read twilight it's amazing!"
I ask them what it's about.
"Vampires, blah blah blah"
I stopped listening when they said "Vampires".
God do I have "Vampire love" jazz.
It's just plain stupid, who wants to watch a movie or read a book about some 100+ year old virgin?

All in all, these people need to just shut up and leave me alone.
I'd much rather just play my Smash Bros haha.

The Twilight fad is gayer than the Jonas Brothers, The Naked Brothers, and Hannah Montana put together...

I have no interest in vampires... or pure love stories (love is supposed to be a side-element... not the main element!)

Its a huge gimmik to combine both, and unfortunately because people, especially the average teenage girl, are rather ignorant.... it works.

In short.... it sickens me. I get a serious headache every time I hear the fan girls.

The Twilight series is freaking awful. I frigging hate that book/movie so much now. All the girls in my school are like, obsessed with it or something.

And now......i really regret picking this User name. At least it's "Twilt," not "Twilight." lol.
