The twilight saga movies

[equinebeing]

Fine. I'll be the first to say I enjoy it all. The books and the movies; however I definitely enjoyed Eclipse the most so far. Didn't really like New Moon. And I love the Harry Potter series too. Has anyone read the Sookie Stackhouse novels?? I have read just about everything else mentioned too. You can't compare them all to each other. They're obviously aimed at different audiences and I appreciate them for what they are.

Hey I agree with you completely! I think being an English major in college has taught me that I read things for completely different reasons. Sometimes I read books (see Mary Barton, Moby haha apparently I can't say Moby's last name on this forum, and Invisible Man) because I am forced to and other times I read books (see Harry Potter, Milton, Toni Morrison and Robin Hobb novels) to be titillated.

Rarely however I just need to read a book so that I can be embarrassed by its awkwardness and be all gushy and giggly. I don't think anyone in their right mind would dare compare the Twilight series with Wordsworth or Shakespeare, but they serve a purpose nonetheless. Even though the books are extremely easy to read they got a lot of young people interested in reading again, and who knows maybe the next book they pick up will be a little more difficult.

You would be surprised how many young adults don't read because they are intimidated by the size and difficulty of a book.

Yeah the majority of the fans can be pretty damn annoying especially if you happen to be in a theater but honestly I don't expect anything different. I will say though that if it had been that noisy in The Dark Knight theater when I went to he midnight showing I DEFINITELY would have stabbed someone.
