Serious question about Twilight
I saw the two films tonight.

The first film had some laughable dialogue, but it was not bad for what it was.

The second film I couldn't follow for the life of me. Like, it seemed REALLY off.

Is it just me?

1. I saw them both on Rifftrax

The first one is actually pretty watchable. Just a really dumb plotline.


The second I think was written by someone who flunked out of film school. The script was just so horrible and it flowed like a clogged toilet. I have no idea how that movie made so much money.

5. Dear Lord!!! Adults did this?
I can fully see how some dizzy tween could think those tats are an ok idea, but an ADULT did this? I finally understand now how the US managed to elect dubya twice if this is representative of the gene pool.


Gawd. :puke:

4. I understood it because I read the series...
but I can see how the movie would be hard to follow if you didn't read the books first. I'm guessing the future movies will be even more difficult to understand.

8. According to my niece, the fourth movie should be spectacular.
