There's no shame in embracing your feminine side.

Is there actually any woman out there who is not reading that book. Seriously... that author must be making millions.

I have to admit, I enjoyed it.
I also have to admit, I have a vagina.

I think it would be a lot better if the heavily fictional parts weren't so obviously made up for a child's imagination.

I was basically forced to read that book by my wife (well, guilt tripped is more like it). The book was OK, nothing great, but OK. Not something I would have read on my own, but after being constantly hounded by my wife to read it, I finally relented and sped through it. Compared to the book the movie sucked. There was a lot of stuff I considered relatively important to the plot of the book that they just left out of the movie but replaced with stuff that didn't need to be there. Plus the actress they had playing the girl Bella was horrible, one of the worst I've seen. Her reaction towards the end in the hospital when the vampire Edward said he was going to leave was so bad I started laughing in the theater.

It was not a good movie. Like, it was awful acting, and according to the gf, it strayed so far from the book.

I wish I could say my wife is one of them but some friend from another state mailed her a copy with no warning insisting she "HAS!!!!" to read it.

1) Seeing the movie to spend time with 15 year-old daughter - completely legitimate

2) Enjoying the movie - excusable

3) Borrowing/reading daughter's book - not okay


A friend of mine was meeting guys from a dating Web site before the hoildays. She says that one of the guys suggested to her that they should see Twilight (he wanted to see Twilight). The conversation degraded from that point into my arguing that the guys is a closeted homosexual and her trying to defend him.

He has not yet lost the title of "gay guy" (I'm bad with names).

I have not read the books yet. I don't know if I will.

 

[NuclearNed]

The wife dragged me to see it. We both hated it, but she thinks the books are ok.

Well, it definitely wouldn't make the movie better

I don't get the whole vampire/werewolf culture, but my wife has been into that genre of books for years.

Mine did. First she was obsessed with Twilight. Then after seeing True Blood she went out and bought all the Sookie Stackhouse books and blew through those in like a week.
