The Twilight Saga: An Abomination Of Vampire Literature

posted by lucius_malloy

I would like to start by quoting Susanna Laitala, who wrote a review of Breaking Dawn for a Finnish newspaper: "... by Stephenie Meyer, who, in my opinion, is a very talented writer." I disagree: I do not think Meyer could write even a decent children's book, with a plot culminating in a giraffe finding his lost scarf. She would probably decide that the giraffe is suddenly carnivore who has green stripes instead of brown spots - she has already done so to the beloved villains of literature, vampires. Meyer's vampires are in fact 'vegetarian': they drink only animal blood. In addition, they...

20 reasons why I hate Twilight

posted by HaleyDewit

1.A lot of trees have been sacrificed for Twishit
2.It's deathly boring
3.Sparkling vampires?Really?
4.Edward is a pedophile and a stalker.To every girl who thinks Edward's the perfect boyfriend: a guy who watches you when you sleep,is not romantic,but creepy.
5.There are a lot of plotholes
6.Bella has as much personality as the spoon I'm looking at right now.
7.Quotations like 'liquid topaz eyes' (since when are eyes liquid???)and 'it's an optional choice'(Where does Smeyer live,because it's obvious they don't have a dictionary there)
8.Bella is the stereotype of the woman before feminism.She's completely...

Bella Swan Negative Reviews by Book Critics.

posted by MyronPwnsBella

Publishers Weekly-"After her transformation into a vampire, it's almost impossible to identify with her in Breaking Dawn"

Lilah Lohr of the Chicago Tribune-"Bella's character, compared to the Quileute wolves, is less satisfying"

Kirkus Reviews-"Bella's appeal is based on magic rather than character, but her and Edward's portrayal of dangerous lovers hits the spot"
"Bella's personality is flat and obsessive"

Laura Miller of salon.com-"In regards of Edward and Bella, neither of them has much personality to speak of"

Jennifer Reese of Entertainment Weekly-"You may wish she had loftier goals and a mind...

Feeling Ill (Hermione+Snape) fanfiction

posted by ImBooOK

Ron just wouldn't can it. We were all at the table, while Ron was blabbing about how Professor Snape had gave him detention. For crying out loud, if he just payed attention in class he wouldn't have!
"'Mione, can you pass the butter?" he said with mouth full of chicken. I scowled at him and passed him some. "'Mione, you don't look so good are you ok?" Harry whispered in my ear. I shook my head. After riding a broom and falling off because of stupid Malfoy hadn't done wonders on the headache i already had. "You want to go to the infarmery, im pretty sure the med-witch has." he began but Ron...

Harry Potter Did Not Copy Twilight

posted by GoodPunchMione

I honestly don't hate, dislike, like or love Twilight. It's just neutral with me. I never really had any problem with it until I saw an article saying that Harry Potter copied Twilight. The person who wrote it also went so far as to say that J.K. Rowling is ugly and that Stephenie Meyer is the pretty one. It just irked me, because the looks don't even matter (they're both equal too) and it's not a valid point.

She said something about Sirius Black being copied from Jacob Black - who is commonly described as a big wolf in his werewolf form. And Sirius (she spelled it as 'Serious'. I laughed...

Why Lily DIDN'T over-react when Sevrus called her "Mudblood"

posted by RavenclawRocks

(NOTE TO READERS: I'LL BE CRITICISING SEVRUS SNAPE IN THIS ARTICLE. BUT THIS IS A ONCE OFF. OTHERWISE I AM TEAM SNAPE 4EVA =])

We all know Bella over-reacted in New Moon. That's a common aregument. But now some Twilight fans say Lily over-reacted when Sevrus called her mud-blood compared to how Hermione took it from Draco. But personally I think Lily didn't over-react.

Sevrus and Lily's friendship was rocky for a while. She despised his friends and his ideas for the future. He despised the fact James fancied Lily. They had areguments (Lily says "I've made excuses for you long enough" in Deathly...

Dulce et Decorum est pro patria mori - A commentary on Breaking Dawn as I see it

Dulce et Decorum Est (1917)

Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs
And towards our distant rest began to trudge.
Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots
But limped on, blood-shod.Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,
Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs

Funny Alternate Endings to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

posted by KateKicksAss

These are a bunch of funny alternate endings to Harry Potter I found. I did NOT write them.

Scooby Doo ending: Voldemort is captured, and is revealed to be Filch wearing a mask. As he is hauled away, he shouts, “And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for you meddling kids!”

South Park ending: After defeating Voldemort, Harry and Ron address the audience, saying, “You know, I’ve learned something today.” Suddenly, Ginny is run over by the Knight Bus, prompting Ron to shout, “They killed Ginny!” Harry responds, “You bastards!” Neville laughs and says it’s...

Bella Swan--Not a Mary-Sue

posted by Ravenclaw2001

Let's just get this straight before you go harping on my article because I'm a Twitard. Because I'm not. I'm just getting a little sick of Bella Swan being called "too perfect". She's perfect about to the extent that I am a Twilight fan. Which is to say, not at all.

OK, Let me tell you a story about a REAL Mary-Sue.

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Anastasia B. Ana was in 6th grade, she was tiny for the age of ten (she skipped kindergarten), she was absolutely adorable, and she was in Gifted and 7th grade math. Boys all loved her, and she could crochet, knit, and she had perfect handwriting....

My Response to '3000 Reasons Why Twilight is Better than Harry Potter'

posted by MirrorHallow

Here's my response to this rubbish.

1- the writing is better
Um, no. It's really not.

2- the actors/actresses who film the movie are talented
WHAT?! Ok, you're talking about the ecstatic Kristen Stewart, right? The Kristen Stewart who shows so much emotion in every seen of the movies? She looks really excited, huh? She might as well be a mannequin.

3- bella is a role model (she teaches people to hold on to their friendships and stuff and keep their secrets)
Bella is a role model!??!??! Ok, when Edward left bella in New Moon, Bella curled up for months, MONTHS. So that's basically saying that...

Two days ago, i suffered from a huge headache. Now. it was the size of Hogwarts. HUGE. I stumbled my way down the halls and went into my dorm. While on my bed, i layed down and closed my eyes. Why was i feeling so sick? why was it lasting this long? and most importantly...
why did i want to kill Harry for?
i opened my eyes and gasped. where did that thought come from? Kill harry? I would never! (unless he tried to kiss me again maybe..) "Mione..." Ron said from the doorway. i groaned. "What?" he layed the food tray by my bed and nodded. "Still feeling under the weather, huh?" he asked sitting...

Voldemort vs. The Volturi

posted by KateKicksAss

After hearing some debate on various spots around here, I've decided to thoroughly analyze an issue that I found kind of interesting, Voldemort vs. The Volturi.

By "Volturi", I'm talking about the main three, Aro, Caius, and Marcus. And on the "Voldemort" side, It's Voldemort, Bellatrix Lestrange, and probably a few more assorted Death Eaters.

After throroughly analyzing this issue, I'm forced to conclude that the Volturi side would probably turn out victorious in a fight, assuming they can get off their thrones and face the challenge, that is. My reasoning is as follows.

First off, in the...

Why I Like Harry Potter Far More Than Twilight

posted by XDRoseLuvsHP

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...

A few reasons why Bellatrix is better than Bella

posted by Love4Hermione

First of, Bellatrix is TOTALLY better looking! I mean, siriusly, Bella dresses in dime-a-dozen clothes that look like they came from a hobo who shops at goodwill. BellaTRIX is in kickass awesome black one in a million dresses. She shows that evil can be totally hot, while Bella shows how easy it is to be blah.

Also, BellaTRIX is played by Helena Bonham Carter, the best actress EVER! Kristen Stewart is an abomination to the world of acting. Shes so ugly and has no fashion sense whatsoever! she just dresses in shit hobo clothes, and cant look pretty to save her life. helena at least dresses interesting...

Twilight vs. Harry Potter

posted by Swhit2

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.

Twilight Chapter 1 part 3

posted by HaleyDewit

While Bella was still gazing at her welcome home present, Charlie took out her luggage and dragged them to the house by which he collided to Bella, making her fall.
“Aah!” she screamed. But before she hit the ground she felt a firm grip around her arm pulling her up. She looked right in Gerard’s face and gasped. Wow, talking about reflex. “Thanks” she mumbled.
“You’re welcome” he nodded. He was still holding her arm.
“Ehm, you’re hurting me” Bella said trying to free her arm.
“I’m sorry” Gerard replied and he let go of her. He glanced at the house. “Maybe we should...

A somewhat logic behind the depression of Bella Swan as seen in New Moon.

posted by KatiiCullen94

I've noticed that alot of members have been saying "Oh yeah, she went crazy over just a boy she only just met. She went a bit over the top, overreacted."

Well this is how I see it. I know I am going to get shit for this, but perhaps this will give you a little more open mindness.

Personal experience: I acted the same, I did everything I possibly could to see him. I tried to commit sucicde, I look back and think .. I was so young, you survive after it.

But Bella was older and what they had was ALOT different to a NORMAL relationship. They were physically made for each other. Which is very powerful...

Edward Cullen: An Abusive Boyfriend

posted by XDRoseLuvsHP

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...

50 Reasons Why Bellatrix Beats Bella

posted by zar_far11

The two Bellas: Bellatrix Lestrange from Harry Potter and Bella Swan from Twilight are being compared. These are 50 reasons why I think Bellatrix beats Bella.

1: Most important: Helena Bonham Carts vs. Kristen Stewart... is there really any competition??
2. When people act as if Bellatrix is incapable of doing certain things, it just makes her fight harder. When people act as if Bella is incapable of doing certain things, she becomes all depressed.
3. Bellatrix is exceedingly loyal. For a time, Bella couldn't choose WHO to be loyal to (Edward or Jacob)
4. Bellatrix went into Azkaban for--what...
