Hello fanpoppers, I thought it’d be fun to compose an interview with 2 people. One, a Twilight fan, and the other, a Twilight “hater”. My first interview is with a Twilight fan, her name is Annie or as some may know her, QOTBB!

Introduce your self Annie!

Hello everyone, my name is Annie, I’m 26 years-old. My favorite book series is Twilight, my favorite show is Supernatural, I have a great husband, a great 3 year-old daughter, and I have 3 cats.

Ok, so why are you a fan of Twilight Annie?

I’ve always been really big into Vampire lore. When I picked up Twilight at first, I was skeptical about it. I didn’t know if I was really going to like it. And it surprised me that I did. Then I heard about the movies and it was like the icing on the cake, I was like “finally, I’ll get to see a vampire sparkle in the sunlight.” I was also afraid that it would not live up to my expectations. I was teased for liking it, and I was made fun of. I’ve been reduced to tears because people can be mean, very mean. But, I’m dedicated to my Vampires!

Does it make you mad when you hear negative stories about Twilight?

Sometimes, but other times I’ll just leave it alone. It’s only when I’m really bothered by what someone says, that’s when my claws come out lol.

What is you least favorite part of Twilight?

Jacob Black, he’s kind of annoying to me. I Like Edward, but I’m not into the whole “oh, bite me Edward” I’m more so into the story of Twilight. I have a husband who would probably get jealous if Edward showed up and bit me XD.

Your favorite part of Twilight?

Well… the Vampire lore. I adore it. And the romantic aspect of it. I disagree with people who say that it’s fake romance, duh, yeah it’s fake, that’s what makes it the perfect romance!

And final question, why do you think some people don’t like it?

I wish I knew. I mean people are entitled to their own opinions and all. But why do they have to be so mean about it? I’ve met a lot of mean people. And sometimes all you want to do is scream.
Warning: This is quite long.

Before I begin, I would like to say that this is my personal opinion along with evidence to support my opinion. You are free to disagree with me, but please, no hating. Also, please do not accuse me of not reading the books. I have read each of the novels in the Twilight "Saga", from Twilight to Breaking Dawn. I have also read all of the Harry Potter books (numerous times), from Philosophers Stone to Deathly Hallows.

It annoys me enormously, hearing people say that Twilight is better than Harry Potter. I personally believe that Harry Potter overshadows Twilight in...

Okay, so Is anyone else as tired of the Twilight vs. HP argument? Well, I personally prefer Twilight, but Harry Potter is also very good. I think that people should just shut the hell up over it! Every once in a while, someone will talk badly about Twilight and I will defend it, but it is still ridiculous to argue over such nonsense.

Edward Cullen. A sparkling "vegetarian" vampire who is supposed to represent the "perfect boyfriend". He's hot, strong, fast, and he lives forever! What could be wrong?

Well, a lot, I'm afraid.

Edward Cullen is not, I repeat, is not a good boyfriend. He is actually an abusive boyfriend. Before I go on to offer proof as to why Edward is abusive, I will clarify what I mean by "abusive".

What is an abusive boyfriend?

There are different kinds of abuse. Many people think of a boy who actually beats up his girlfriend. That is physical abuse. There is also psychological abuse. This includes emotional...

I'm adressing the rabid Twilight fans if they would listen. I'm also adressing the common fans of both sides of this debate.

There are some things one may and may not do in a formal debate unless one wants to look like - pardon the language - a freaking donkey.

Nr 01: One may not argue against the debaters points by attacking him or her. This is called argumentum ad hominem and is a fallacy. For example: If I am to argue that free elections is wrong and states that the arguer is an imbecile that does not deserve the right to vote, then I have committed a severe personal attack and will be frowned...

Many of you might have noticed that the golden trio from Harry Potter (Harry, Ron, and Hermione) had always been paired up to fight with the not-so-golden trio of Twilight (Edward, Jacob, and Bella). Now, XDRoseLuvsHP had pointed out a great deal on why HP trio would win against the Twilight's (you can find it link), so I figured perhaps it's time for the villains to battle.

My first thought was off course, James and Voldemort; but then, it didn't seem fair on the Twilight side. James was not a very good villain; his character was poorly underdeveloped and his powers weren't very outstanding...

This is a (long) rebuttal to KatiiCullen94's argument, the title of which is in is article's title. (Though you've probably all seen that by now.) I haven't included her points in this, so it will be necessary to read her article first.

1. The majority of people in this world cannot relate to Bella. Tell me, how many people can go to a new school and automatically be the prettiest and most popular girl there? How many girls can say that they have FIVE males lusting after them?

Bella does care for people other than herself - her boyfriend. That's it. She was perfectly happy to hurt her father...

This is my last article and as you may know I never really came here to argue, just to figure out what was going on in Twilight-Haters heads.


Bella- Whiny and Moany ?
Everyone says that Bella is so whiney and the point is so what if she ? I am sure if we went into your heads ,you would be as moany as her. She complains about the attention she is recieving from boys. I would too it would totally creep me out if suddenly I moved to a new school and everybody likes me.
The friend problem: Jessica is not a good friend after being to 9 schools so far I have met people like this and only can I comment...

Firstly, this is not my article. I found it over the internet and pasted it here because I find it really hard to believe that there are people like this in the world who are completely ignorant or just plain stupid.

The e-mail was apparently from Kayla Patterson, a die hard Twilight/Taylor Lautner fan upset about Universal Pictures ripping off the werewolf idea from Twilight.

To whom this may concern:

This movie was a complete waste and I feel that it offends ALL Twilight Fans around the world, that including myself. For one, it was a COMPLETE remaking of the Wolf Pack from the Twilight Saga:...

Hmm... this could take a while. Haha, I have a lot of reasons for my strong dislike of Twilight. Before I start, I'd just like to explain that I was once a Twilight fan, so I've read all the books and stuff, but I just can't stand it anymore. Therefore, I can give a more complete explanation of my views. Sorry if it's really ridiculously long.

First reason I hate Twilight: the media. Twilight, in all honesty, isn't a great book. I have read worse books (though not many... Twilight was pretty bad). However, if Twilighters and Twilight articles and such weren't all "OMG ITS THE MOST AMAZING SERIES...

Voldemort is notorious for his fear of death. To avoid death, he is willing to kill innocent people and destroy his very soul.

Now, everyone with any sense knows that Bella is a Mary Sue, and Stephenie Meyer desperately wants to be Bella. I even personally know quite a few Twilight fans who realize and accept this. And what does Bella want? She wants to become a vampire.

Here is some commonly known knowledge about vampires (according to Meyer):

-Kill innocents for survival
-Practically immortal
-Possibly lose their souls, though this is not known for sure

We see Voldemort killing innocents for survival....

Okay now I will begin off with something that has really begin to get on my nerve. How Twilight fans write out their articles on why they like Twilight. Not just articles other things too. I will give you and example of one: "For people.....blah blah blah." Like these. Who are they directing these too exactly? I know some the title says it, but they expect only those sort of people to respond. Pff yeah right. I see that kind of title I go in and see what kind moronic things they have to say.

Most Twilight fans I see on this site lack the skills in proper grammar. Okay first if you ever want...

This article was actually wriiten by an ex-twilighter(iloveyoudarling), not me, and i dont like the way she wrote it, cuz it is kinda rude, but i posted it so that maybe some twilighters here could consider giving harry potter a chance because the article proves that even though you love twilight there COULD be a better book out there:
Dear Twilight fans,

I was you one day. Addicted to Twilight and couldnt ever stop reading it even if i had already read it 4 times. But trust me on this one will you. READ ANOTHER BOOOK!!! AFTER YOU DO THAT TWILIGHT WILL SEEM LIKE A STUPID ROMANCE STORY.

After...
