The final Twilight film. This s**t is almost over!

I've been watching vampire movies for as long as I can remember, from the classic Hammer movies to the surprisingly good Wes Craven's Dracula 2000.  I was suckered by the imagery for Twilight and was brutally disappointed when I realized that it was not a vampire movie, but a teenage chick flick with vampires in it.  Oh my gaaaaaah!

It took me about ten minutes, but I rolled with it and sort of enjoyed it for what it was.  A teenage chick flick, another take on starcrossed lovers, an exploration of the loneliness of a 'boy' who can never love without the danger of killing his mate.  Yeah, utter tosh, but I had to rationalize it somehow.  :teddyr:

Coming soon to a theatre near you: Twilight Ferox, Night of the Living Twilight, I Spit On Your Twilight, and The Twilight Chainsaw Massacre...

I thought the first one wasn't too bad, its a well made entertaining little movie. s**t hit the fan when the sequel came out but I had already lost interest in watching any of those.
Not sure why everyone is upset. Nobody is forcing you to watch Twilight movies and I wouldn't care less if they stop or continue for eternity.

I've said it before, they're bad movies with a budget. That's all they really are. And "bad" movies are just like "good" movies: some are entertaining to watch to some people and some aren't. I had the same attitude toward these horrible movies that most here seem to have at first, but I've come to actually watch them when they come around for free and can tolerate them because, at the core, they are just bad films with performances and dialogue that I can laugh at.

I used to be an old bad movie snob, reluctant to watch any bad movies after, say, the early 80's at the latest. I've evolved past that. Now I can watch new bad movies with no problem. Funny, my wife actually bought into Twilight just a little bit at first, but now she actually watches them from the bad movie perspective now, so, like Charlie Sheen, I'm WINNING!
I don't always talk about bad movies, but when I do, I prefer badmovies.org

I'd like to see it end just so Kristen Stewart can make more great movies like "The Runaways." Her other work is much better. She's too good an actress to be saying stupid lines like "your my vampire boyfriend." If you haven't seen "The Runaways," her portrayal of Joan Jett is so good I forgot I wasn't really watching Joan Jett.

Meh. People will find something else just as stupid to fawn over soon enough. It's a cycle.

I agree whole heartedly.  Bella is an empty soul of a character.

Isn't this ripping off of the new Harry Potter movie, the last one being into two parts?  :buggedout: Damn you Twilight, Be creative!
