I didn't go into this naively. I didn't expect it to be great. I didn't expect it to be good. I expected it to be bad on the order of .... oh, say Resident Evil: Extinction.
But it made RE:E look like movie-making genius. I am SO glad I didn't pay for that, and didn't bother to see it in the theatre. This is what I get for being curious - sometimes it really does not pay off. The pathetic part is that we even ran out of mocking material because it was so repetitive that we couldn't find anything new to mock. And that was HALFWAY THROUGH THE MOVIE.
anybody want to rec me some vampire fics where the characters actually do have sex and there is biting? because at this point i'm trying to do the fic=brain bleach.
I mean, Twilight made Dollhouse look good. that's just frightening.
and ok, i know, i'm totally late to the Twilight dissing party, since it was forever ago, but ... I'm traumatized now dammit.

Date: 2009-03-29 02:46 am (UTC)I actually like Twilight for the lolz. And, sadly enough, I find myself wishing to read the rest of the books so I can read the Alice/Bella 'fic I've found because I've conceived of an odd affection for Alice Cullen.
I want to make one of my friends a shirt that says DO I DAZZLE YOU to wear to her doctoral exams...

I don't know who was worse: Bella looking all high and forgetting half her lines, or Edward looking constipated or like a rod was shoved up his backside and constantly doing the 'looking over your glasses thing even though you don't have glasses'. If I did that the whole time, my freakin' eyes would hurt, not to mention the cramp in my neck! Jasper looked like he was constantly stunned and all the characters were so FLAT they looked one-dimensional.
I want my $2 back.

Date: 2009-03-29 05:16 am (UTC)And the next piece of pre-release Twilight merchandising i see is going to end up down the throat of the nearest teenage girl whose exclaiming how hot Pattz is. Ugh.

Date: 2009-03-29 07:30 am (UTC)That said, the movie isn't that bad. Behold the horror that the movie > book. The movie at least has fabulous lulz of RPattz's precious face and hair, and OH GOD THE BAD WIGS (hi Cam Gigandet's abs). But I have the whole badfic addiction, so I'm embracing the sparkle (SKIN OF A KILLLLLLEERRRRRRR!!!!) and love the terribleness of this movie. But the soundtrack is pretty good. Um. Yeah, I'll shuffle away now.
