This is so much better than the real movies.

"LET'S GO EAT SOME PEOPLE! WHOO!" LOL
Also, Bella actually has emotions in this.

Ok...after actually watching all the movies (apart from last one), I can safely say...it's not as bad as people make it out to be. Sure, it's not amazing, and Bella is the most boring character on the planet, but there are some relatively nice moments and interesting characters. Recently fallen in love with Carlisle (Edward's adoptive father), he's the most interesting. But yeah, Twilight is nowhere near as good as THG or HP, but not what I thought it would be.

I even think that twilight chick could learn a bunch if not a few things from Lion King's Kiara.

^ Even though one actually likes Kiara, that was pretty funny. +1

So true.

I actually like the side characters like Alice, Jasper, Rosaline (only because I feel sorry for her based on her backstory), Carlisle, and Charlie. Jasper and Rosaline's backstories were actually interesting and I wish the series revolved around them more. I feel sorry that Charlie has Bella for a daughter.

Overall, I still dislike it but I'm so happy that the whole series is finally over. ^^

I find most of the characters interesting apart from the main three lmao. At least with HP I actually like the main three x) If I had the chance to re-write Twilight, I would. I found the Volturi quite an evil group of b****** x) I might actually just write a [s]fan[/s]sortafanfic without Edward, Bella and Jacob lol.

I went to see the new movie with my mum on Monday, I didn't really like it. I enjoyed the ending but it wasn't that good. There are a few characters I like though. Alice, Rosaline, Jacob, Seth, Carlisle and Charlie. I actually thought it would be better than it was. I love the music in it though, I have to admit. x3

I have seen all the movies, and read the books.
Many times while reading the books I thought "why am I doing this?" lol But I just had to see what all the fuss was about, and how the story ended. I was very pleased that Bella did become a vampire in the end, but I dislike the way vampires are portrayed (they sparkle?? Seriously?)

I find the characters to be very flat, they all have one trait each. Kristen Stewarts acting is not impressive, to put it mildly, not that the character of Bella gave her much to work with in the first place, but she`s just so expressionless, and she appears nervous and uncomfortable most of the time.

I don`t mind Edward/Robert Pattinson, I think he`s alright.

The only character I actually like is Carlisle.

Generally, I found the writing to be dull and repetative, they were talking about the same stuff over and over, going in circles. But I think the main reason why I dislike Twilight is because I disagree so strongly with the views of the author on sex and relationships.

When it comes to the movies, I think they`re OK, nothing special, and I certainly don`t understand why Twilight has acchieved the massive fanbase it has.. Then again, I`m far too old for teenage romance fantasies.

Someone already mentioned this, but I feel like saying it too: I sincerly hope no girls want to be/act like Bella. She is a horrible rolemodel for young girls and I can`t understand what the author was thinking of when she created this character.

I so agree with you on this. Bella is a stereotypical Damsel in Distress who is very dependent on her boyfriend to do all of her actions a majority of the time and can't stand up for herself. She makes very stupid decisions that put herself in danger and goes into a coma when her abusive boyfriend left her for a quarter of the year and didn't let that go. She jumped off a cliff just so she can see Edward's spirit again next to her. That is just stupid. She's not interesting in the slightest way and very 1-Dimentional. Jacob and Edward's competition over winning their love to Bella is very confusing because she has no likeable qualities and it doesn't seem reasonable. Their reasons for loving this girl wasn't explained that much and you question on it. There are much better female role models girls can look up to.

I agree as well. I think Bella Swan might possibly be the most boring character ever created. She has no personality whatsoever.
