TWILIGHT - WORSE THAN .... WELL THERE IS NOTHING WORSE

TWILIGHT - SUCKS!

I recently made a deal with a friend, to read all the Twilight books if she reads all the Harry Potter books. I knew I would do it and sincerely hoped she would hold up her end of the bargain as I know that everyone that treats themselves to the brilliant world that Jo Rowling created would be instantly drawn into the fantastic reverie that is Harry Potter.

However I forgot about what I was putting myself through and throughout the entire series all I was doing was hoping and praying that it all ends soon. The mindless dribble that is Twilight is seriously rotting my brains. The descriptions of the vampire lead from the perspective of a horny teenage girl just further cements my dislike for this franchise. It seriously is a story for love-struck teenage girls who don't know their knobs from their bobs.

From the feminine descriptions of dangerous creatures to the build up of a dangerous element only to have a inexperienced writer blow it all away as a silly child would. I at one stage actually had high hopes for the second book, where the lead started interacting with the werewolf Jacob but that also just about fizzled out.

I am an avid fan of Chuck and the way chuck is written, and as all fans of that show would know, what makes Chuck special is his feelings and that he has to talk everything out, to the annoyance of his fellow spies. Now imagine having to read all his thoughts and the efforts he has to put into all his ways - not so bad hey? Now imagine having to read the diary of a stupid teenage girl who falls in love with a mythical creature (which is supposed to be awesomely cool) and keeps on describing him in ways that would make even gay men shudder.

I have noticed that I get really excited whenever Bella get herself into one of those dangerous situations, hoping that that would be it - death!! But then she pulls through and I go into another depression!

But weirdly enough - this I just have to share, Alice the hot, petite blonde sister vampire from the books made a appearance in one of my many fantasy dreams last night, played by none other than Alisson Mack, so I don't know if it is that I have the hots for the vampire from the book or Allison is just doing it for me since I watched Smallville not too long ago!

Here is some commentary I found on wikipedia and just thought I'd share:

"Many have divided the series as poor writing. While comparing Stephenie Meyer to JK Rowling, Stephen King said, "the real difference [between J. K. Rowling and Meyer] is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer, and Stephanie Meyer can't write worth a darn. She's not very good."^[63][64] However, King understood the appeal of the series, adding, "People are attracted by the stories, by the pace and in the case of Stephanie Meyer, it's very clear that she's writing to a whole generation of girls and opening up kind of a safe joining of love and sex in those books. It's exciting and it's thrilling and it's not particularly threatening because it's not overtly sexual."^[64] Laura Miller of Salon.com wrote that "the characters, such as they are, are stripped down to a minimum, lacking the texture and idiosyncrasies of actual people", and said that "Twilight would be a lot more persuasive as an argument that an 'amazing heart' counts for more than appearances if it didn't harp so incessantly on Edward's superficial splendors."

Oh, and on a last note and I know many have said it before but vampires don't fucking SPARKLE!!!!!!!!!

But none the less lets hope this crap ends soon before my mind melts!

Here are some pics I found and though I would share - absolutely Brilliant!!!!
