That woman must be raking in the cash. Blatant wish fulfillment pays off!

Also, everyone who criticizes Twilight is just jealous that they didn't think of it first.

Blorx assumes anyone who disagrees with him is trolling, so be nice to him. lolz

I think Twilight tries to do for vampires what 28 Days Later did for zombies, but with ever so slightly more soppy sentiments. I enjoyed the first film.

Also, Anne Rice books are boring and shit. Interview With The Vampire was a good film adaptation though.

You are referring to the first 28 Later film?

No, I meant I enjoyed the first Twilight film. However, I also enjoyed 28 Days Later. Didn't see all of 28 Weeks Later, but the first 10 minutes of that film was some of the best horror action I've ever seen.

Laughed all the way through. "We assume that Pattinson's agents are currently negotiating a deviation from the book in the second movie, in which Edward Cullen is unexpectedly killed by Lord Voldemort."

Oh sorry to Zhukov. Just kinda well...misplaced the reference...I was saying, as they were, that Anne Rice did a lot of that stuff first, and as such, is not jealous.

Ren, I did not enjoy the first film. It just didn't appeal to me. If I wanted to watch a war b/t vampires, other vampires and werewolves, I'd watch Underworld. Just my opinion.

My favorite quotes:
"1) If a girl says she doesn't love you, just keep sexually assaulting her. Eventually she'll realize she likes it."

"Bella spends the rest of the book going crazy, imagining Edward's voice and partaking in ever more self-destructive activities. During this time she befriends Jacob Black, who turns out to be a werewolf but is still way better for her than Edward. She finally regains Edward's attention after she deliberately jumps off a cliff and almost dies. Edward, being a thirteen-year-old girl, thinks Bella has died and goes to Italy to commit suicide. He attempts to do this by exposing himself to the sun at noon in an Italian town. Since sunlight doesn't actually harm Twilight vampires, one must assume that Edward is hoping some macho Italians will see him in at full sparkle and beat him to death for being gay."
