I am no longer a fan of Twilight
not the book, not the movie, not the sequels.
ENUF OF THIS BS VAMPIRE ROMANCE.
Why I Didn't Like The Movie
1. Bella Swan actress looks like a mutant
2. Syiq says i have the same nose as the mutant T_T
3. Watching the actors "act" is like watching marionettes with voiceovers. ACTING = FAIL.
4. Bella and Edward should just go shag already. I CAN SEE IT IN THEIR LUST-CLOUDED EYES.
5. Movie is only partially redeemable if you have read the book.
6. Actors weren't hot enough to play god-send vampires
7. Jasper has the worst hair i have ever seen, owning the lepak waterfront malays and ah bengs and everything.
8. DIALOGUE WAS THE BIGGEST FAIL OF ALL.
movie's filming was awesome, i give it that. and the colors and locations are killer.
action scenes remotely passable.
i liked the fact that they played 15 Step during the credits but i think its a bit of tarnish on the holy name of Radiohead to have them included in that movie.
Why I Don't Like The Book Anymore
1. could stephenie meyer BE any more repetitive?
2. predictable to the max.
3. for someone so "in love", how well did Bella actually get to know Edward before "falling in love"?
4. characters are very shallow
5. yes we get the point he is very good looking move on and develop the story line a little bit more please.
6. the other characters are just there to make bella and edward look better, like cardboard backdrops in a school play
7. for someone who is so "unworthy of her vampire blalalala", bella has practically NO FLAWS. and, no, severe clumsiness is NOT a character flaw. It's a stupid Mary Sue story (go look it up at urban dictionary) and it sounds like one of the thousands of stories written on Fanfiction.net. I should know. My twelve-year-old self worshipped that place.
8. completely unrealistic. and i don't mean the fact that it's fantasy, cos yes i realize it's fantasy =_= for example, just because you're new, doesn't mean the whole school will fall for you (especially seeing as how meyer describes bella as being painfully plain. doesn't make sense at all. and don't give me that whole "THEY FELL FOR HER PERSONALITY" because she barely says 5 words to all of them)
9. Perfect people don't make for a perfect story. Perfect people are uninteresting.
I could go on about these two topics for AGES but i don't want to become Obsessive Twilight Hater, which is just as bad as Obsessive Twilight Fangirl.
It makes for an interesting read, and yeah, i have to admit when i first read the book, i was all OMG I WANT MY OWN EDWARD. but the second book was absolute fail and opened my eyes to the masses of shortcomings in the book.
oh if you thought the actor for Edward Cullen was hot, I have this gnawing feeling in my brain that i know someone who looks EXACTLY LIKE HIM. so you might want to tell me to put you on standby when i do remember so you can go stalk.
