I work at HMV. Recently we've begun carrying books and clothing along with the regular assortment of music/movies/games.

We're selling the Twilight novels, shirts, and soundtrack. The brief interaction I've had with the people who buy Twilight-related merchandise makes me want to - what was it? Set my head on fire and put it out with a sledgehammer, isn't that what someone suggested? It's the older fans though, that really kill my faith in humanity. When scanning their purchases I say nothing, but give them my best You should know better than this face.

Agreed, Allison. Sometimes I think of "Twilighters" or "Twifans" as people who have nothing better to fixate their fanaticism on. And there's plenty of legitimate criticism of the books (http://jezebel.com/5034213/breaking-dawn-what-to-expect-when-youre-expecting-a-vampire). Even if I remotely liked the books, I wouldn't want to be associated with the fandom (and any screaming girls at Comic Con Twilight panel... good fucking god. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IP4Vhs23Ol8).

I'm surprised all the Twilight buzz hasn't driven rational people to mass suicide, yet. I contemplate such thoughts when I'm not largely ignoring the existence of Twilight altogether.

So, in the USA weekend today, the cover story was on twilight, and it said something along the lines of "The story behind this year's biggest book to film adaptation", and I was thinking that you probably actually could fit all of the actual story in that book within that 20 page section. Seriously, save the trees, edit twilight.

"The story behind this year's biggest book to film adaptation since Half Blood Prince got bumped to 2009 and Prince Caspian came out early enough that people forgot about it."

Seriously, though. The producers on this one are lucky that the new Harry Potter got bumped back, or no one would even be talking about this garbage.

I don't think Narnia has fangirls like Twilight does. It will likely be a better movie (which says something about how shit twilight is going to be), but I expect that it will have quite a bit of a following, among the fans that don't consider it an absolute butchering of the perfect source material, you know, pretty standard fandom arguments.

This just in: Robert Pattinson (the guy playing edward) says Stephanie Meyers is mad. http://vids.eonline.com/services/player/bcpid1396519019?bctid=1915367691 (Yes, I know, it opens a little tiny player in a full-screen tab, don't know how to change that).

Actually, Rachel's bitching about it already.

"You realize there's no hope of you dragging me to see that shit, right?"

"Oh, I'm skipping it anyway because the guy who plays Edward is so hideously fuck ugly that I simply can't take it seriously."

"Yeah, because you were able to take this utter bullshit seriously beforehand. I hate you."

My friends don't seem to like the look of him either, I think it is because they likely ignore what the description actually is and fill in their ideal looking person. I am not very well qualified to judge his looks, being a straight male, but I think he qualifies as handsome, just not as handsome as a 13-year-old girl's fantasy.

I can generally judge when a dude is actually attractive. That dude is not it. He doesn't look bad in that interview, but they uglied him up something fierce for the promotional stuff. They should've cast Drick.

From what I've seen Robert Pattinson looks better in these than he did in Harry Potter. But then again I'm not sure what a 13 year old girl's fantasy is any more, I think their taste has all gone to pot if they don't find him quite yummy. My taste in guys hasn't always been the best though  :|

My roommates and I are going to see this movie together on opening night and we're going to see which one of us can scream "OMG IT'S EDWARD!" the most like a 14 year old girl (3 of us are male).  I'm really excited for this movie and I've started to read the first book.  It's really as bad as I thought it would be.

I am going to venture a guess that her character is flighty, kind of out there and is referred to as a "free spirit" at least six times over the course of the book. I am also willing to bet that, at the onset of the book, she is unpopular, but is eventually accepted into the "cool kids that want to fuck vampires" clique.

Am I close?

Google his image and you'll get lots of good photos of him! In the promo stuff I'm guessing they're trying to make him look dark, ill and moody since that's the stereotype of a vampire (kind of) and he is supposed to look ill and tired a lot of the time... of course, when he's not beautiful and dazzling the world with his sparkles.

Jon, she is "pixie-like". I have been looking for terrible shitty Twilight fanfiction to see if I can find the worst one out there, and every single goddamn one uses "pixie" in their description of here. The book is no exception.


Again I say, the movie is going to be terrible. I am looking forward to going to it (and dragging Ben along) just so I can have a running commentary going about all the shit things in it. But It's not like I will be going as soon as it comes into theatres. I am not that stupid!

You should.  You should go early.  You should sit up front and comment loudly and obnoxiously about how terrible it is.

I can't.  I live in a small town and the odds would be very, very good one of my students would be there.

Every single girl I teach has read this book (with one exception).  None of the boys have (with one exception; his mom got it for him and he hated it).

Actually, I kind of really want to do this now. Get absolutely roaring drunk right after work and go to a like seven PM Friday night showing.

The trick is, though: do NOT sit up front. For one, the screen will give you a massive headache that close. No, you want the back. You know why that is? Your voice will carry better. Up front, you're yelling at a wall. In the back, everyone will hear everything you say.

This is how my friends and I handled Spider-Man 3 and Miami Vice.

It's either this one:
"TWILIGHT!!!!!!! ssooooooo much better! idk wat u guys see in harry potter and his scar, there r wayyyyy 2 many books in that series. Twilight is more of a fun romance read. you can really get into it! Adults and teens love this series, as for Harry Potter is very hard to read, 2 many big words, and too mystical!"

Yeah, I'm really really hoping that some of those pro Twilight ones are just piss takes! I don't get how people can get so worked up about a book and a movie. So what if not everyone likes it? Big whoop, they just won't read it. Was there this much craziness about Potter? Some of those replies just made me cringe, but they're so funny! I just can't seem to stop reading them!

You see the person that said that Edward didn't kill Bella immediately, and how that was admirable (well, I assume, it was poorly-written, could have said he should have killed her)? I was so tempted to reply with something witty that slips my mind now, about how I can kill someone as soon as I meet them, easy, and that not killing them would be slightly more difficult. Like I said, I can't remember WTF it was going to be, but it would have sounded better than what I wrote.

Another person said that every student should be forced to read twilight, it was an old one though. Glad I don't go to highschool anymore, I am not happy about the lack of community at college (maybe I'm just not looking for it), but at least we are free of people blabbing about Twilight.

I'm sure whatever your reply was going to be, it would have been great ;)

Seriously, it is getting hard to read some of them, the grammar and spelling is just appalling. Some of them are simply mistakes, but some make me think that whoever wrote them never actually learnt to read.

We had to read Harry Potter (the first one) in our school when we were 11, but I'd already read it. At the time I thought it was a fantastic thing, and I guess it was good for encouraging those who didn't like to read to read, but Twilight should probably be kept out of schools if it makes people go this crazy!!
