I really miss ur 50 shades video. I used to laugh so hard.
I can't watch your eclipse video. It says it's not available in Canada.
What's the name of the song you used?
Will the storyline continue?
Hey was this privated? Glad I can finally see it
"'Popular' does not mean 'good'!"
FINALLY, someone on the internet says that phrase!!!
Examples: The Transformers movies, The smerfs movie, the Chipmunks movies, Sword art online. 50 shades of Gray, some top pop songs, Glee... Did I miss anything? Anyone want to continue the list? :D

+Steven Coker Well, it's good being popular?

I remember seeing an interview of Robert Patterson talking about how he read a part of the first Twilight novel and he explained how he thought the entire novel was just a weird girl's fantasy of her own made up characters. I couldn't stop laughing how he essentially called Stephanie a creep for many of the romantic scenes in the book.
I don't think Robert should be giving his opinion on anything. Back then he was broke living on his managers couch lucky enough that Stephanie even gave him a chance to make money off her series when he wasn't her 3rd or even 4th pick to play edward. Ungrateful and entitled for someone about to quit acting and move back in with mommy. He was a total miscast. And everyday I mourn Book Edward and the other humble up and coming actors who could've actually made a career out of this series gaining a lifetime of wealth from playing a character loved by so many
@@leahscontemporary What?
@@leahscontemporaryRobert Pattinson found bigger success in The Batman
@@leahscontemporary robert pattinson was very accurate to book edwardand despite popular belief, robert did not necessarily hate the series like all the twilight haters like to exaggerate and joke about. he has a weird sense of humour and gets bored during press releases, interviews-- any promo work, really. he literally makes things up all the time and you CAN find many times he talks about twilight and his character seriously. the same can be said with kirsten stewart who both made fun of some silly parts but talked about taking bella seriously. it was a tactic both did, as well, after twilight became a blockbuster success to continue their careers with reduced criticism against them since they were being ripped apart at the time.
@@ARealKekwSituation okay, that's really reductive. the reason everyone likes edward is because he understands consent and asks bella about her. he gets to know her and her interests when she is in a new town and feels misunderstood, with a parent who does not really know her well and the other making her feel like a burden presumably by accident
Fun facts: Emily Browning was actually the first choice for Bella before Stewart but she turned it down as she was taking a break from filming. Also Hardwick did actually try to push for a more diverse cast but Meyer road-blocked it hard since she envisioned everyone as white.
Damn i would have liked her so much more as Bella
I think she would have done a better job as Bella. I’ve seen a couple of her movies and she’s amazing.
So, Stephanie Meyer kinda inadvertently show herself as a white supremist?
Who knew?
Robert Pattinson said that New Moon was his favorite... He's only in like 7 minutes of that movie lmao
That's why it's his favourite. Because he's barely in it.
I remember when Twilight first came out that I read the books and watched the movie just because I didn't believe everyone that it was good, and my mom had to come with me to the movies due to being a bit too young to make trips on my own and comically, Charlie actually ended up being the only character she liked in the entire movie.
“Popular does not mean good.”
I’m looking at you anything ever written by Sarah J Maas
Twilight is good because it’s a conversation starter. There’s so much to talk about based on its issue, and that’s how it STILL relevant and popular because it shows what you’re NOT supposed to do.
“This is an episode of everything is terrible and I hate the world”
2020 in a nutshell
Don’t worry, I too gave Twilight a chance when it first came out. I was in 7th grade. I made it to the 3rd chapter before I gave up unable to take it anymore. It was so bad I stopped reading for months, and reading is my favorite thing to do
A fun thing about only having watched the movies as dumb fun is finding the book reviews and the despair and destruction it brings
I love all things vampires, but Twilight was such a disappointment. I do have a possible explanation for why the kids at Bella's new school treat her like she's so special. I went to a very small high school, maybe 400 kids max, so on the rare occasion that a new student was in school, which meant a new family moved to our island town, that new student immediately became popular. Everyone wanted to know about the New Kid, and sometimes they'd click w/ the popular kids and remain popular; other times the new kid would not fit in w/ the popular crowd and would slowly mix in w/ kids whom they had common interests w/. I feel like this is what Bella is going through, and once the kids realize she's such a bland person, they start distancing themselves from her. In book 2 she has to try and reach out to them in order to maintain a normal life, they don't wanna hang w/ her so much, but she hasn't made any friends other than her weirdo BF and his family.
As someone who changed schools and was the new girl at a small school: it is pretty accurate that everyone is all over you, this has nothing to do with your personality. It's just because you are new and that's what makes you interesting.
At a small school, yeah, a new kid would be far more noticeable, but in a large school no one gives a shit if there's a new kid. I know from experience.
@@heroofthewinds7765 Forks only had a few thousand people living there, I think we can assume it's not a large school
I think the owl would work better if it was turned toward Bella. Then it could symbolize Edward's predatory nature (I think Bella's associated with the deer in the movie's opening) instead of looking like angel wings. It wouldn't be subtle, but it'd be less cliche imo.
I've been looking for this review for ages... How come it appeared out of nowhere today?
I managed to pull all three parts out of copyright jail.
@@KrimsonRogue well, congrats. How did you manage to get then out after almost 5 years?
@@KrimsonRogue Oh wow, so that explains why this showed up in my feed all of a sudden. What exactly happened, I'm rather curious...
OMFG I forgot Kristen Stewart cheated on Robert Patterson. I remember the twihards had such a collective mental break down when the news broke!! I wonder if I can still find those videos on UA-cam? Girls were screaming and crying into the cameras asking Kristen Stewart how could she do that to Robert Pattison she ruined the Bella+Edwards ship in real life and yada yada yada. I could’ve sworn I remember one video where the girl in the video crying her eyes out actually called the actors by the characters names. That right there shows the disconnect some twihards had.
It has taken me 8 years to finally find a plot I like in my book and over 5 months just to start writing
Oh my god I've been looking for these videos forever! Thank you for reuploading these!
Stephenie Meyer always seems surprised that people say Bella’s reception at her new school is unrealistic since it is something she based on one of her own experiences. I think she missed the flaws in using it in the book, though.
Her experience was moving to a new city for college. The people are generally more mature. Also, the school she attended is well known for couples finding each other and marrying. Guys are looking and girls sometimes attend just to earn their M.R.S. degree. (Yes, people call it that.) I’m not sure how it is now, but girls used to quit school after they got married. High school is very different from college.
Peer pressure caused me to give twilight a chance when it first came out…… Even as a tween, the target demographic, I couldn’t get past chapter 2 because it was so boring! And I had a huge vampire phase back then.
I'm rewatching this for two reasons. One love the content. Two I'm rewriting the twilight series. And I need an overview on the characters. God help my soul.
Wishing you luck 2 years later
What an intro
EDIT: Love the "AVGN but for books" vibes lmao
Krimson,after your review of Eclipse you should watch the rewriting Twilight series by Hannah Lee Kidder.I think you’ll need it.
the only thing I will congratulate this book and film for is that it gave Robert Pattinson his career. He is an incredible actor and I can’t wait to see him as Batman next year.
Lol i love how he compared Twilight to Mein Kampf. Perfect analogy for how popularity =/= quality.
Pattinson is a really good actor, to be honest. Edward is a shit character and it kills me that this is what he's known for. My cousin forced me to go with her to the movie and (because I was 13) I made a tshirt that said "Support Cedric Diggory, the REAL Hogwarts champion".
You wouldn't believe the dirty looks I got at the theater.
Hoping things go up for Robert Patterson. Excited for him to play Bruce in The Batman, and hoping he doesn't get sucked back into the Twilight shitstorm if Midnight Sun gets adapted.
Omg I am literally wearing a Punisher shirt just like the Edgelord at the beginning. I got started with your review of Empress Teresa and second your new Edward story. So I thought it would be good to watch the rest.
"If Twilight is the worst book you've ever read, I don't think you've read that many books."-James Tullos
It's so nice to finally see this story line and everything
I always chalked Bella's popularity up to bring the new girl in a small town.
Actually my class actually did do the finger prick blood type thing. It is a simple and easy experiment to do. Sterile needles are provided and you get a drop of blood put some chemicals in it and look at it. You match it to a chart and figure out your blood type.
Robert Patterson truly is a man of the night
Regarding the apple: It’s a forbidden love because Edward is a vampire that could kill human Bella. It’s not that deep. Nothing in the book is that deep lol
What’s ironic to me is the supporting characters are more interesting than Bella. The Cullen family is infinitely more interesting than her. They have more interesting backstories and character traits. Bella was just boring.
Any one know where I can find more information on galaki
You could have called her a cardboard cutout, but then again, that's mean to cardboard. Idk, I read it in middle school because I was pressured into it by my friend at the time and I don't remember much of it. Maybe lord of the rings had something to do with it....
Valid points across the board, except one lol I went to a small town highschool in rural Canada (the type of area where some students would occasionally drive their four-wheelers or tractors to school) our student body was maybe 250 students at most. Everyone knew everyone, because it was a small town. The parents of the students grew up with each other, and their parents etc... If you were the new kid in school, you were the bright and shiny new toy. Especially if you were a pretty girl - you would most definitely be the fixation of most of the boys in the school - and all of the guys would have been fawning over you lol So that part actually is very relatable to people who went to small town highschool.
Okay, I think the covers are the best thing about Twilight. They're simple and kind of captivating in their simplicity. The apple traditionally represents temptation, and you bite into an apple the way a vampire would bite into your neck. This would be a great piece of symbolism if Twilight were actually about a girl who falls in love with a terrifying monster, and has to reconcile her desire for him with her fear of the tangible danger he puts her in.
But it's not.
Honestly, that sounds like a way better story. I'd read that.
You just described "Cruel Beauty" by Rosamund Hodge more or less
Nyx Shadowhawk I’ll admit it I love the covers
But the story was complete shit
Definitely don’t judge a book by the cover
I respect the fact that the book was written by a Mormon, but this just destroys the vampire genre.
@@ANT96-x8d Or it fixed the vampire genre by giving it a book so bad any book after it is better.
14:17, actually even the Volturi don't give a damn if they're together or not. They just want Bella to either die or become a vampire... so actually, they're making it EASIER for them to be together. Even the villains aren't standing in the way!
+satireknight Well then I stand corrected! That's even worse! D:
+KrimsonRogue Maven of the Evening tide ( I think thats how she ws called) summed it up best by saying "We haveca serious problem on our hands.... oh wait.. never mind" probably got the quote wrong. She said it better for sure but the "oh wait.. never mind" I remember clearly cause its spot on
Yeah but they really want to finish the Cullen's so they do stand in their way they didn't stop Victoria so she can kill them
Edward's basically sentencing himself to a fate worse than death wanting to be with Bella for eternity.
Personally had written it one the romance would never be forbidden just hard, and ultimately doesn't work out. And two that scene she'd still go to Italy, but not to rescue him to tell him off, only to get dragged into this supernatural mess and get turned against her will
(in my version she values her humanity and she's the one who wants to stay a human and he's the one who wants her to get turned and that's what breaks them up not some contrived for her safety thing.) then have to go home and hide her transformation.
But no one wants to read that they want shitty romance.
Like Pattinson, you've gotta remember that Stewart had a bland cardboard cutout of a character to work with, which can explain her terrible performance. Her bland portrayal of Bella is pretty accurate to the character
Sidenote: kristen stewart is in fact a pretty good actress. Mostly her terrible performance here came from the absolutely aweful direction (or lack thereof)
I watched Snow White and the Huntsman. She was godawful in that too, so I’m not sure if it’s just that she literally cannot act or if Bella was just a boring moron.
Probaby the director purposefully muted her for fear of appearing to “overact” when in fact only the director is a soulless robot pretending to be a human.
Yeah I think it was the direction, plus Bella acted kinda like that in the books too.
I agree. I've seen her in other movies and she's pretty good. The problem in this case is the source material. Bella in the book is really closed up and conceals her emotions all the time (I assume to win edgy points or something), so Stewart did the same thing. Same thing happened in the Hunger Games, where the protagonist hid her emotions, so did the actress and people thought she was terrible.
As for the Snow White movie, it tried to use the fame of Twilight to lure its audience in.
In conclusion, fuck these books.
Also she came put as a lesbian recently and her butch aesthetic is EPIC.
The only about Twilight I actually like is Alice. She's fun, adorable, has more emotion than just "dull surprise" and "nauseous rabbit" and has a really interesting back story. Honestly, why couldn't she be the star instead of Bella?!
+Sailor Italy Then you are not gonna like what I say about her in Part 3. >.>
+KrimsonRogue lol ps what are you doing after the finale, and can you give me a link to your fan fiction.
+KrimsonRogue so when is part two going to be up
darth cratos 84 that's the question of the day
+darth cratos 84 We'll be doing another midnight release next Sunday. Same with the third part the week after that.
I just like how the Twilight script writer went on to actually do something really good with the idea of a creepy stalker with supernatural powers in Jessica Jones.
+Connor Fahy Show or Comic?
The Gamer's Shade Bendis did the comics, screenwriter guy very loosely adapted Alias.
And unlike Edward, Kilgrave was portrayed as the obsessive controlling evil scumbag he was.
The thing that enrages me is the people that say its better than the Lord of the Rings. Yes, a book a first-time author shat out in three months is definitely better than a series involving a world the author spent most of his life creating and perfecting. I don't mind the fact that people like it quite so much as they insist its better than books that are provably, blatantly better in every way.
are there really humans on earth (ON THIS FORSAKEN WORLD!) who think that? I know some people are stranfe, but this is just insane! even a dictionary is more interesting than the piece of firewood that is called twilight!
+jesperL Unfortunately there are people that stupid. I ran into quite a few in college.
+Robert “Frank” Martin on the other hand, the world needs stupid people to assure others that they themselves aren't.
People say this is better then LOTR? WHERE THE HELL IS NATURAL SELECTION WHEN YOU NEED IT?
Who said that?!
I'll bloody kill 'em!😤😤😤😤😤😤
And that is such a lie.
Seriously....
LotR>over useless and soulless dull book.
Yeah, Robert Pattinson's bashing of this...*ahem*...'book' was pretty awesome.
And hey, your experience with this book was close to mine--except I was in high school at the time. I didn't realize how bad it was.
Same here, buddy. Same here.
TheHeroOfTomorrow I feel so bad for him. He was young and made a bad career choice and aside from Cediric Diggory, Edward Cullen is the only character he'll really be remembered as. And that's a real shame.
It's too bad he didn't audition for Game of Thrones cause he'd be a good wildling or if Alfie Allen didn't get the part I could see him as Theon Greyjoy. Or maybe for new Star Wars trilogy or stories he'd have fit right in in Rogue One or the Han Solo film. Or honestly anything else would be better than this.
I TRIED to read it in high school. I couldn't get past the first PARAGRAPH much less force myself to read the whole book.
L. T C. I thought he was good in 'Water for Elephants'. He's a good actor when he's in decent stuff.
i read it when i was twelve and hated it because it was boring, i didnt even see real flaws (i did think edward was a creep though)
Haha the second you said "when was the last time you fell for a guy because he said he likes your scent?" I immediately had to think of the novel "Perfume" by Patrick Süskind. You know, with the guy who kills women because they smell good. He and Edward would be BFFs :P
+GirlintheSea It is so rare to find people who have read this Suesskind and yes they would be vest buds also the hoards of girls swarming after the main character after he puts on the perfume perfectly encapsulates the hype of the fangirls for twilight.
AlSidre I'm from Europe and 'Perfume' is much more popular here. At least that's the impression I get.
I'm from Germany and we had to read it in school. I loved the story, though I wasn"t too fond on the history of perfume making.
AlSidre Oh hi there, neighbor, I'm from Austria :) Yeah, the story is very original, which I really liked!
+GirlintheSea hi wie gehts 😄
i would have gone with "the book was shit and the movie nearly ruined vampires"
Nearly ? ... Sob q.q
Oh come on, vampires were sexy for a long long time before twilight. Lestat was basically a sex symbol. Both in the books and the movies. They weren't scary anymore, not as scary as sexy anyway. That transformation of scary to sexy wasn't instantaneous.
@@AnnekeOosterink Vampires don't sparkle
@@MarkyMatey way to actually answer. Anyway, vampires also aren't real and what characteristics a mythical creature has can and does change all the time. Bram Stoker also made up some new things. I don't really like twilight, I also don't hate it just because it changed the myth or because teen girls liked it. Those seem to be the only arguments people have. Get some actual arguments and get back to me.
@@MarkyMatey truly pathetic argument. The lore of vampires has changed dozens of times. Originally vampires didn't die or get burned while standing in direct sunlight, but people accept it when movies/books include that in the story.
Wow are US high schools really that bad that students being nice and friendly is so unrealistic?!??
I think everyone's high school experience is different. My elementary school was a lot like that- everyone just wanted to be nice and inclusive. I think it's just that the environment Meyer was raised in was an overall positive and inviting one, and most Americans may not identify with that. I've seen similar portrayals of American high schools in other mediums and nobody complained though, so I don't know.
I wouldn't say every high school is perfect or horrible. For my high school, everyone seemed pretty cool. I never witnessed any bullying nor was I bullied. I don't think everyone was as nice as depicted in the movie, but people at my school were normal kids. The most bad I can think is in regards to a rival school, like taunting or something like that. And when I came back from Grad night, some cars got graffitied. Then again, I did keep to myself mostly, so if there were more bad things about my high school, I wasn't aware. I did have personal stuff going on, and I wasn't the most social person then, just hung out with my sister and a friend.
I don't think so. I mean, there's a few girls in my school that were total bitches but most are actually kinda nice. So long as you're not a creep, it's all good.
Depends, I live in a town where everyone minds their own business so organized bullying was practically nonexistent
My high school experience was pretty awful. Though, I doubt most people share it; I was regularly harassed by the staff, universally hated by women my own age (still am!), and was falsely accused of rape *twice*. That's all beside the fact I got screwed out of applying to universities early because my GPA was intentionally skewed to be too low (they're supposed to be rounded to the nearest tenth, which would have made mine 3.0; they didn't round, and I got 2.988).
Actually, Twilight IS a beautiful masterpiece. I mean, no other book has such bonfire potential.
I hear if you stare at the flames long enough, you actually get visions of Buffy staking Edward and shoving Bella in a trashcan.
@Jacqueline Davis Either one works.
Don't feel too bad. At least you realized it was bad right away.
Besides most, if not all the defenders grew up, realized how bad it was, and moved on to better things, I would know because I'm one of them.
I was a tween/early teen when I was into it and I'll admit I fell hard and fast for it for awhile. It distracted me when I needed a distraction, gave me something to think about aside from School and Girl Scouts, and kept me actually reading after I ran out of Harry Potter books and before the Hunger Games were a thing.
But thank the lucky stars a friend of mine just flat out told me it was was bad. I had a few weeks of resistance, (I mean come on you'd be a little pissed if your friend said the thing you loved sucks.) But then she made me watch the original Star Wars and reread Harry Potter so I'd get a dose of good fiction, and I realized she was right.
I ended up deleting the movies and ripping up books and used the paper as pulp in art class when we made recycled paper art, (bit extreme I know, but I was a stupid teenage girl who thought she was being all edgy and making a statement or something IDK).
Soon enough I found Marvel and have been a fan ever since.
Twilight was simply an embarrassing footnote of my pubescent years. We've all got them.
L. T C. Same here. Ltc is right, most people who were fans moved realised it was trash and moved on.
When I was in my early teens, I loved it. But after a year or so, I realised how bad it was and got into anime. I'm still an anime and cartoon fan. But now as an adult, I just riff this hunk of trash...Though, I don't like riffing often, since it's boring as hell, so I mainly stick with dubbed 80s Voltron and The Room. In a way, Twilight was my first fandom...not sure what that says about me.
Carissa Carlson
It says you were a teenager and we all like stupid things as teenagers.
We all needed our teenage crushes. We all need our teenage obsessions, we all need to just be a teen. And we were but we moved on and we're better off for it.
It's okay to like stupid things sometimes. I mean we all have our guilty pleasures. But you especially get a pass when you're young and don't know any better.
Seems a tad overkill, but okay.
Alexa Cleveland eh I probably wouldn't do the same thing now at my age odds are I'd just donate them to the library. but again I was a teenager when I was not only into them but also when I realized they were trash. And let's face it, teenagers aren't really known for their judgement or sound reactions.
Same
I'm just watching the video, acting like Emperor Palpatine, and saying, "Yes! Let the anger flow through you."
"The hate is swelling in you now."
To add on to the discussion more, I have an online friend who went to the same university Meyer went to and had this to say, "The college is extremely conservative and religious where you have huge numbers of college guys served religious missions and attend church every Sunday. For a guy here to push a girl for sex is taboo. However, to meet and marry her in under six months to have sex with her is not. On top of that, if a woman gets an engineering degree, people will start questioning why you even bother since you should be in the home and let the men do that work. As you can probably guess, sexism is a issue in the culture that influenced Meyer. I think this is why Ms. Meyer doesn't see anything wrong with how weak she has made her female characters. You can only live in a sexist environment for so long before you either protest and try to change it or start to hate your own gender. I think she chose the latter option."
As a full disclaimer, I'm not American, so I can't completely confirm without a doubt that is what happened here. At the same time, I wouldn't be surprised if her environment had some influence on Twilight. Either way, I'm glad I never went to a college like that, because I would've dropped out or went insane if I had to deal with fuckwits like that on a daily bases.
The fans who loved Twilight, would eventually grow up to be fans of 50 Shades of Grey.
I used to love Twilight, but I'm indifferent now. And I tried to read 50 Shades and...does EL James even know what a story is? Lmaoooo
I’m proud to be the 69th like on this post
no, alot of us grew up and grown out of the preteen stage. Where watching someone let you sleep isnt cute, its fucking creepy af.
They grew up fucking wrote it
Wrong
This series made me lose faith in vampirekind.
Dracula restored it.
I like Camilla. I found that I had a thing for lesbian vampire stories. Not this crap Meyer put out.
NPC: *lights the book on fire*
Me: *Fire alarm goes off and I jump*
(This legitimately happened, except my roommate burned something in the oven instead of my copy of 'The Magic Tree House number 1: Dinosaurs Before Dark' and I will kill him if he tries to burn my book.
My first thought when I saw the cover of Twilight's novel.... I thought it was Snow white novel
I mean Kristen Stewart player Snow White In “Snow White and the Huntsman “so can you say prothetic?
holy shit 2 years later and i thought the same thing when it came out, and i thought a Snow White novel woulda been cool...then i read one chapter and wanted to burn the book
To Be Fair, i was never picked on in High School.
Granted i was an Introvert and was autistic and thus they probably wanted nothing to do with me, but that was ok because i wanted nothing to do with them.
That being said, they didn't all magically try to be my friend, so that's unrealistic.
So was I, the introver and autistic part, but people still somewhat wanted to include me.
Yeah, honestly same. I’m pretty introverted but still have my group of friends so I’m good.
I remember wanting to read this book, back when it came out (Was in High School at the time ) , just to see what the hype was all about, yet I was never able to buy one, since it was always sold out, all around my town! Nowadays, I think the universe may have spared me from an atrocity!
I was forced to read the first book. Then I read the rest of the series, not out of a love for it, but just out of sheer morbid curiosity. I kept thinking “Good God that was terrible. It couldn’t get worse than that?” With every chapter, but sadly it did. It was like a literary train wreck. You want to look away, but you’re just to fascinated by the sheer destruction.
I'm not a huge fan of the book, but she actually loved the truck the moment she saw it. To quote "... A faded red color, with big, rounded fenders and a bulbous cab. To my intense surprise, I loved it.... "Wow, Dad, I love it! Thanks!" Now my horrific day tomorrow would be just that much less dreadful." (I'm reading the book because all my friends love it.)
I pity your soul. Did you survive?
This is actually self harm. Do you want to talk about something? Are you ok, bro?
Even Anna Kendrick needs a paycheck... thank goodness for Pitch Perfect or we might have never seen just how talented she is.
In fairness, when confronted with Twilight, most people with two brains to rub together scream like Shinji losing what little of his mind he has left.
That is so specific that it works
For the teenage girls comment they were generally realistic because despite how judgemental they are they usually act nice because you're cool if you have a big friend group so it's more useful to be on speaking terms with most people.
When this first came out, I too went in with an open mind. I went and saw the monday after opening weekend, but I should have seen the red flags when I realized I was the only person in the theatre. After the movie was done, my reaction was, "This is it? This is what everyone is going nuts over?" I was young and naive back then. I feel your pain, I feel your pain.
1. Oh, god. The cat is the magic tracking device. Seeing how obedient cats are, this is gonna be good.
2. I had no idea Rpatts had that to say. I feel slightly vindicated.
Everyone says this is the worst love stories ever made.
But then a few years later, 50 Shades of Grey came out.
I'll never understand why potterheads fell for Twilight. Wtf does a mystery young-adult book series like harry potter have to do with a cheap teen romance???
Their both about loner kids being introduced into a magical world.
We didn't, we hated they took Rob from us
If I got a truck like that, I'd be squeeing for weeks.
Rachel Friedl I know
*Sees Evangelion clip on a Twilight hate video*
*Subscibes*
Loving it so far man, and your reaction was very much like mine and my mother's when I listened to the audio book on a 8 hour road trip. As someone who had just gotten both the 'Dear Writer' and the 'You'll never get published' letters from editor's a few days before for a short story. I still don't understand how these book got published
I know, right! In the end though, I get the last laugh. That story did get published and is now a series with a book of stories in the works once I finish a few more. I guess the jerk didn't think a story for kids shouldn't make them think about politics, the human condition, and hypocrisy
+Anna Paulson That actually sounds like a good read , what is the name?
+Tristan Fessler Here is the link to my writer page you can find them there: prose-press.com/a-m-paulson-author/
There are others which will come out as one shots online, but I have no idea when they come out
+Anna Paulson Glad to hear it worked out for you in the end. Your story sounds interesting though. Where would I be able to find it?
+KrimsonRogue Amazon
Why does Edward look like he's in utter pain from being stabbed every time he kisses Bella?
Because he's trying not to eat her I think.
Nice job Krimson, I never knew Robert Paterson didn't like it either, but I do know he's a good actor from watching Water for Elephants and Remember Me (both of which are very good films). Btw I was wondering if you'd do a review of A Series of Unfortunate Events. I like the movie and my sister's really like the book.
+44Ryoga44 Not sure when I'll get around to it, but it'll probably be sometime next season. I've already read the first two books in the series.
+KrimsonRogue If anything else, you could sync the review up with when the Series of Unfortunate Events Netflix Series comes out
KrimsonRogue Wow, I honestly didn't expect you to reply to me... Thanks.
check him in Harry Potter and the goblet of fire
I'm sorry. It's hilarious when you get aggravated at crappy movies. Although with this one, I'll probably have a heart attack laughing so much. I'm really sorry.
Before I even watch this video I know it's going to be a great video
SAVE ME BUFFY! Buffy the best vampire related show ever.of all time.
I personally would have gone with Blade, but that’s just me.
Your new moon review showed up in my recommended and now I’m bingeing your videos. Keep it up!
So Godwin's Law a 7:30?
Krimson says, "In the book she took one look and the truck, thought it looked trashy and horrible and hated it instantly... " Book says, "It was a faded red color, with big, rounded fenders and a bulbous cab. To my intense surprise I loved it." The only way I can interpret hate is her suspicion when he tells her about it before she sees it. After she decides she loves it she tells her father that she loves it and thanks him, glad that her first day at school will be easier.
It's only Part 1 and yet I'm already comparing this to Linkara' Holy Terror Review. The anger in both reviews is just so rich and delightful that it's awakening my inner Sith Lord. Though it does look like both the book and movie drained you.
13:16 why does it take this long for the actual episode to start? That’s over half the videos runtime! You say Twilight dragged on?
Yeah, I like the review, but the skit was too long. I don’t even care about the stupid skit, I want to see a review.
I thought the day might never come -Single manly tear rolls down cheek-
The story and writing of the twilight movies and books are so bad it actually confused me how it was allowed to be released.
My hatred for this series of "Novels" began during my High School years. My English teacher was a desperate cougar who was inspired by this series and made my whole class read and write a report on this travesty against vampires. I couldn't get through the first chapter without giving up, and in the end I just accepted the F. No amount of academic pressure was going to make me read those truly God Awful, dime store romance/fantasy trash. I'm more surprised that it wasn't kept in the horror section, I could read like a poorly kept together stalker fiction.
If I were in your shoes, I would’ve done the report… and write about how bad that book was! I usually hate writing, but I would use that assignment as an excuse to rip that waste of ink and paper a new hole! I shall use the most creative of phrases and clauses to rant about the slow-as-molasses pacing, the beings that are only characters in name, the lack of story, and the screwed up romance! And it would be the most fun I ever have writing something, EVER! And if that “teacher” starts to hate me because of what I said about her precious romance novel, very well then, hate me! See if I care! I’ll be hailed as a hero by everyone else in the class who has some sense of quality when it comes to entertainment!
On a side note, I don’t have to worry about reading that waste of space. If I remember correctly, my mother watched that film, possibly out of curiosity, while we were on an airplane, during an eight hour flight. While I was forced to catch glimpses of it, it did give me the advantage of knowing the plot beats, so I can cut the middle man out, and get straight into burning that thing! All it cost me was eight hours of nausea! Possibly because of turbulence mixed with the awful film.
I think the most hilarious part outside of the video, is that my list of suggested videos on the right side is filled with movies titled with "better love story than Twilight." Hehe, apparently, a lot of my favorite UA-camrs thought that everything is horrible and they hate the world. ;)
I remember discussing this book with some of my mom's friend who loved the book. I asked them what the hell they saw in the book that made them love it so much.
Their answer was basically "It realistically recreates what it's like to be in love at that age."
I'm sorry but I don't remember high school love being like THAT.
comparing Twilight to meine komf does not really work as meine komf actually had thought put into when it was written and is a interesting read.
+Horned marten good point. Hitler might have been a madman, but Meyer is just mad.
+Horned marten The funny thing is if you read what the Third Right actually believed in and was pursuing, it reads as a really stupid D&D campaign.
+Horned marten
Actually, „Mein Kampf” isn’t a very well-written book either.
Marta Tarasiuk i still find it a interesting read.
Horned marten Of course it is an interesting read. It took a part in making history, after all. A horrible, bloody history but history nonetheless. However, outside of its content, the book is really poorly written.
Rouge: ....runs into...John? Ted? Ben? I honestly can't remember.
Me: Well one of the has to be right.
Movie: Hi. I'm Eric.
Me: Not even close.
I might be able to ease some of your pain by pointing out one fact:
Edward Cullen is a Hufflepuff
*Oh hell no!*
There is only one good thing I like and that is Jessica (Played by Anna Kendrick). Not just because Anna Kendrick is hot, it's because Jessica is a more identifiable and likeable character. Why can't she be the star?
I honestly ate that people hate on Kristin Stewart for this role. She had to present a dull character and that's what she did
It wasn't high school but when I changed schools in junior high from a very large one to a tiny school in an even smaller town-everyone took notice of me. Everyone was uber nice and wanted to know everything about me. This all died down after the first few weeks, but knowing this, I felt the book had it spot on. In a small town nothing new happens often so when a new person shows up the people treat them like a new shiny toy. Forks is described as a small town. Old one of the only things Myers got right in my opinion.
#BuffySaveMe
To the credit of Pattinson, he has gone on to do a lot of better roles
To be honest, after watching some reviews about Fifty Shades of Physical and Emotional Abuse, I actually think that Twilight is ... "okay" in comparison. I mean, it's awfully bad, no doubt there, but mostly harmless. Could be even fun to watch the movie to laugh with some friends. But about this 'fanfiction' you just can't laugh. This is ... terribly dangerous, to say the least.
I'm actually writing a reworking of Twilight. It's also going to be a sorta crossover with Imfamous with the powers and such. But I actually came up with a way to keep the diamond skin idea but also make it scary.
So yeah Bright and direct sunlight causes a glimmer shine (not as sparkily) but....since they say their skin is diamond, why not have it when they're in the sun there's an odd beauty if Glanced at or at a distance, maybe say....to attract someone close. But then when they are close they see the terrifying sight of the vampires skeleton inside. And maybe Vampire skeletons could look more monstrous than humans, such as "hiding the monster within."
I think a better title for this video is "the book is bad, but not as bad as the movie"
I watch the movies over and over just to see Bella suffer, her suffering makes me happy
Review starts at 5:55
That intro had a better plot, character development, and acting than all the Twilight saga books and movies combined.
5:54 The point of the video begins
13:22 the actual review starts
ITS HERE! ITS HEEEREE!! (*dances like only a mad dragon can*)
-_I'll Be Watching, Friend._
I am loving the jokes. So good. So goooood. ....

Aww man, it was over to soon :( but it makes me even more excited for part 2 & 3 :)
