I loved this review. Now I know what to expect after my mother buys this movie and guilts me into watching it with her. You've probably just made this experience way less traumatizing that it would have been. :D

This is one of the funniest reviews I've ever seen.

One of my friends made an interesting point about Twilight: I guess Stephanie Meyer is Mormon, and my friend thinks this is the reason why Bella is portrayed as such a helpless little girl.
I suppose that would make sense, considering all of the Mormon girls I have known are literally mothers/housewives before they are even old enough to drink.

Right on SpoonyOne, I went to see New Moon on opening night with a friend PURELY TO RIP ON IT. It was incredible. We sat in the back row yelling at the screen, and by the end of the movie, we had about fave other guys sitting with us absolutely tearing new assholes. I'm glad to see you were able to see how fucking amazing an oporunity this movie is for people who can appreciate trash and laugh off absolutely PAINFUL sexism and shittiness.

Twilight is just total garbage. I could go on and on but Spoony said it as good as I can, don't waste your time with this garbage, there are better vampire romance novels and movies, hell there's better vampire romance fan ficion out there! This is the worst thing that has happened to vampires since garlic bread.

You know, I really don't like being angry and frustrated so I have pretty much avoided the need to vent my rage at this stupid, stupid series on the net, but now that I found those sexist, emo, whiny books in my sister's room I'm just about to blow. I can deal with the fact that it reads like cringe-worthy Queen of the Damned fanfiction, I can even deal with the emo whining, but I cannot get over the blatant sexism. Bella is a terrible role model, for all the reasons mentioned above. I'm appalled at what feminism has become. Objectifying men is not the way forward, you sniveling bitches! Fuck the shirtless werewolves and fuck needy, greedy, woe-be-me Bella. She is the worst thing a woman can be: needy, worthless without a man and still managing to be insanely sexist. I kept hoping for her to man the fuck up, grow a pair and get a hobby, and that could be the point of the series, but no. Sick bitch is digging a hole deep enough to bury everything classy ladies like my grandmother fought so hard to achieve.

I grew up with the worst female role models. For the longest time, way into my teens, I sort of assumed that the best and only way to experience love was to basically whore myself out, physically and emotionally, and shut the fuck up. I wizened up, thankfully, but that sort of bullshit leaves scars.

I do not want my little sister reading these books and watching these movies. No way in hell am I telling her what to do and if there's one thing I hate more than sexism is censorship, so the best I can do is read them myself (ugh) and talk to her about them. But there's a lot of girls out there who don't ave mothers and sisters (and fathers and brothers) who care enough to place things into perspective and point out where these stories fail. Hard.

I never thought I'd say this, and I hope to god I'm just being a drama whore about it, but I really think these books, now that they're so popular, are dangerous.

.i saw this shity movie and it was the worst FUCKING movie have ever seen. the girl seems to be ignoring whats his face when he shows up so what is she doing? and she is really messing with the werewolf guy, leading him on and like teasing him. and the ending, there is NO tension of cores shes going to say yes there's no reason she wouldn't, she was bitching about him being gone the whole fucking movie.

If I had to play Edward, I would be in constant, horrible pain too.
