Harry Potter Vs. Twilight Article: Why Harry Potter is better than Twilight

Why Harry Potter is better than Twilight

posted by Love4Hermione

So Harry Potter is MUCH better than some stupid book about wimpy girls and sparkly fairies. First off:
ALL the Twilight people are UGLY! I mean seriously, Taylor Lautners muscles are gross and he has ugly man-boobs. He looks like a creep on steroids. and Robert Pattison looks like a bum, and Kristen looks like a drug aggict as Bella. I mean, EW! Who wants to watch a movie with eyesores like them? Harry Potter is WAY better, I mean we have HOT guys, and the girls aren't half bad either! I mean. we have Lucius, Draco, Sirius, and Snape to say the LEAST! Plus like a zillion other eye-candy dudes! And can you say HOT about Chamber of Secrets teenge Voldemort??? AND Hermione and Bellatrix and the other girls look like people and not stoner mannequins like Bella!

Second, Twilight is too realistic. I mean it's not like it's fact or anything, but it's all boring cause it's set in the real world and all. Stephenie Meyer didn't have to do anything to write it other than to put her crappy ideas on paper. JK Rowling actually did research and stuff for Harry Potter, which is much more exciting, and WAY less realistic! I mean it's so much more creative too!

Also, Harry Potter provides more stuff for people. Like there's a HP musical, theme park, clothing, etc. All Twilight has is a few movie and posters and shirts and stuff. And who'd WILLINGLY go around wearing a shirt with Eddykins's face on it? EW! GROSS! YUK! Anyways that proves that Harry Potter is the best and Twilight is what i'd pick up dog shit with.

AVADA KEDAVRA HATERZZ!!

(this is my first article what do ya think?)

bri-marie This actually doesn't really prove that Harry Potter is better than Twilight - everything here is all opinion. [i]ALL the Twilight people are UGLY![/i] Opinion. People find different things attractive. I happen to think Nikki Reed, Taylor Lautner, Cam Gigandet, and Peter Facinelli (without the pasty make-up) are regulation hotties. Also, as (probably close to)hundreds of people have said here, "Looks are not a valid reason to say something is better than the other." [i]Second, Twilight is too realistic.[/i] Again, opinion. I found Twilight to be extremely unrealistic. With the exception of the fact that it was set in the "real world" nothing- from the plot to the characters- was realistic or believable. [i]Also, Harry Potter provides more stuff for people. Like there's a HP musical,[/i][b]There's a Twilight musical as well.[/b][i]theme park,[/i][b]Twilight has a cruise ship and a hotel[/b] [i]clothing, etc.[/i][b]Again, Twilight has this.[/b] Again, this doesn't prove that Harry Potter is better.

lalaland21 Are you a Twilight fan? Because I swear that I heard you say that Twilight was realistic. TWILIGHT IS NOT REALISTIC. It's set in a real place, but so what? NOT a valid reason. You're using the same reasons as the dumb Twilight fans, but using them for Harry Potter. "The Twilight people are UGLY!I mean seriously, Taylor Lautners muscles are gross and he has ugly man-boobs. He looks like a creep on steroids. and Robert Pattison looks like a bum, and Kristen looks like a drug aggict as Bella. I mean, EW! Who wants to watch a movie with eyesores like them? Harry Potter is WAY better, I mean we have HOT guys, and the girls aren't half bad either! I mean. we have Lucius, Draco, Sirius, and Snape to say the LEAST! Plus like a zillion other eye-candy dudes!" Sounds scarily like "EDWARD IS HOT!!! HARRY POTTER IS UUGLY BUT JAKOBS ABS ARE SEXY!!!!!!!!" Wait a minute, it sounds pretty much EXACTLY like that!I'd better not see you diss Twi fans for saying things like this.

GemonkDruid Is this a joke? You just basically used the shitty arguments that us Antis disapprove of. (and you hate potato.)

Aquilia Excuse me? My brain yelled fallacious throughout the article... *sighs* I'm sorry to say but the argument that "Harry is hot therefore HP is good" is the inverse of the Edward-fallacy, it is false because even if a piece of the examined object demostrates wanted behaviour, while the same conclusion may not be applied to the entire object, it is a false extrapolation of the whole. Your singular axiom that Twilight is too realistic is refuted by the postulation that Breaking Dawn is unrealistic: [url=http://www.fanpop.com/spots/harry-potter-vs-twilight/articles/82322/title/dulce-et-decorum-est-pro-patria-mori-commentary-on-breaking-dawn-see]here[/url]. The rest is Argumentum ad Consequentiam, an appeal to consequences and another fallacy. The last argument is non sequitur, the statement is independent of its postulated proofs. I however will applaud your effort even if it took me less than five minutes to conjure an counter-argument.

PotterForever Oh dear, this is not good. I agree that HP is better, but you just did exactally the thing people hate Twilight fans for doing. (Shallow invalid arguments) Lets go through it: 1. How "hot" the characters are is not a valid reason. 2. Twilight is far from realistic. Yes it was set in the real world as opposed to a fantasy world, but nothing about it (the characters, the plot) are even close to realistic. 3. Yes, HP provides more stuff for people, but that has nothing to do with the book's quality. I agree that Harry Potter is better than Twilight, but these reasons are exactally the kind of shallow invalid reasons people bash Twilight fans for using.

GemonkDruid SHE IS ONE OF LOBSTER'S MINIONS!!!! BAPTISE HER IN THE HOLY JUICES OF POTATO!!!

PotterForever YES WE MUST BAPTISE HER IN THE NAME OF POTATO!! IT'S FOR HER OWN GOOD!

GemonkDruid WHY ARE WE RAPING THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE BY TYPING IN ALL CAPS????

PotterForever BECAUSE POTATO'S IMPORTANCE REQUIRES THE USE OF ALL CAPS.

GemonkDruid OH RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!! GO POTATO!!!!!!!!!

PotterForever YYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY POTATO!!!!!!

GemonkDruid POTATO KILLED TWO STONES WITH ONE BIRD.

KateKicksAss I do completely agree that Harry Potter is better, but this is a horrible article. I agree with you, but this sucks. This is the worst article I've every read about why HP is better.

MissKnowItAll I don't want to be rude, but... this article is rubbish. :/ You are just using the same shallow arguments for why Harry Potter is better that the Twihards use. (By Twihards I mean the psycho crazy ones.)

SerialFangirl Oh, I thought that this was a dig at Twi-fans, using the same arguments as them but twisting it into a Potter-fan point of view. I was going to say that it was really clever.

alexthedog This is kind of funny!

ChocoLuvr101 I agree that Harry Potter is better than Twilight, but this article is just rubbish. Your using the same invalid reasons the crazy twitards would use.

Ashmita2001 This article dose not prove that Harry Potter is better than Twilight. Well its...its like your opinion. You are telling that Twilight characters are bad-looking. I mean.....that's insane! A movie is not compared by its character's face! And you are talking about Bella...aren't you? Come on man....she is like that. Not everyone in this universe is Fun or a Talking Train? And then you're telling about the Harry Potter products. That just isn't making any sense. This article is about "Why Harry Potter is better than Twilight?" It isn't about "Harry Potter products are better that Twilight products?' I am a Harry Potter fan and equally a Twilight fan. But I am sorry to say that this article dose not make any sense with the title of this article.

It has a PLOT! It has Subplots.It has several characters with depth.JK is not afraid to sacrifice the good guys. The characters aren't one dementional. JK researches her material, has good use of Latin and history within her books. Spells are named after Latin words and do what the Latin words do. Names of soem characters give hints as to what that character is such as Sirius which means Dog Star for more Albus which means White (pure wizard). You can relate Harry Potter to WWII because of similarities you could learn some history from the books.
Harry Potter teaches a good deal about prejudice...

The Internet and Maturity

posted by Kersian

Okay this is more of an opinion, since my view of the activity is based off opinion.

Now whenever someone posts something on the internet and someone else responds negatively to it, they respond in the same way to that person. In a very negative tone. This is in fact what I see at times in forums.

First Twilight and Harry Potter fans, if you post anything on the internet, whether they are opinions or facts, you have responsibilities with it. You are exposing yourself to others in the internet. You are responsible for the positive or negative replies. So don't blame others for your actions....

Harry Potter vs. Twilight

posted by potteralltheway

I have actually read both series and liked Twilight okay, but Harry Potter rules for me!

First, the so often brought up topic... love, or lack thereof. Harry Potter consists of all sorts of love: family, parental, romantic, friend. Twilight consists of pure lust. Now for the evidence! Mrs. Molly Weasley killed Bellatrix Lestrange because Bellatrix nearly killed Ginny, her only daughter. The Weasleys all look out for each other, and even Percy apologized in the seventh book. They joined together in dark times, happy ones, sad ones, and when Fred died. You might say the Cullens show family love....

Bellatrix vs Victoria: Who's the Better Villaness?

posted by PotterLambert93

I'm going to start doing articles like this because I think it's fun and I just wanna see who thinks one character is better than the other.

Before you guys start, let me tell you my opinion. I think that Bellatrix is the better villan because she's mean, crazy and cruel but also happens to have good fighting skills, even though I hate her for hurting Hermione. She's also not afraid [potterheads correct me if i'm wrong] to kill others. She pretty much has the ultimate personality and guts that Villaness's have.

Those are my opinions. Now... feel free to add yours!! Enjoy:)

Common fallacies by various fans, part two

posted by Quaila

PREFACE - THE JEALOUS-FALLACY IN ITS MANY FORMS

Alright, I have already dissected one very common fallacy invoked by some Twilight fans and a few Harry Potter fans as well, the Edward-fallacy. I shall not discuss that one but instead I will be moving on and examine another common fallacy invoked by some fans, using what I believe is the two most common forms of it.

"YOU ARE JUST JEALOUS, THEREFORE YOUR ARGUMENT IS INVALID"

Firstly, let us examine the logical reasoning behind "You are just jealous, therefore your argument is invalid".
It is invoked when any fan post an argument and employes this...

posted by Renarimae

1. It has better writing.
2. It's plotline is better.
3. I'd rather read a book about a teenage boy going to a wizardry school and fighting a dark sorceror than one about a ditzy girl who's way too obsessed with her sparkly boyfriend.
4. The characters are more relateable.
5. J.K. Rowling is not afraid to kill off plenty of good guys.
