Littoria-C Animus Inanis You're quite welcome XD.
Random funny bit: Edbob Sparklepants' glitters have their own sound-effects in the movie adaptation.
I'm sorry, but it's bad enough that he sparkles like a Christmas ornament, and then they make glittery sounds...
I am so sick of this anti-feminist crap and its brainwashing of innocent girls.
Hello all, by the way.
Oh, dear girl. We wish we were kidding you. But, tis' true...Windchimes were the sound effect. XD

Aurora Crystal Aura The "werewolves" in Twilight don't even seem to be what werewolves are suppose to be.
Well, they aren't werewolves because the old stereotype is that werewolves stand upright and have a humanlike body and they come out during a full moon.

Animus Inanis @Mako: Yes.
Though I do think that their pathetic attempts at being badass (considering a piece of fruit has more acting skills than all of the fail!canines combined), are not just a reflection of their incompetence, but also of Stephenie Meyer's failed attempt at characterization.
They try to be all HULK SMASH (sorry dudes, Ironhide pwns you there) but they fall comically short...sort of like puppies. Why? Because Stephenie Meyer can't write anything but her own self insert and...I'm going to go back to my Japanese homework so I stop ranting...
Heh, but most of them try to be so serious that is damn near comical. Especially the furspolsion in the movie when they show Bella who they really are.

I don't consider them hot...or maybe it's the fact that I'm older than them and I consider them cute little teenagers...hmm.
And no, he's not. he doesn't have the face shape/eye shape for it. They all look Hispanic really...I laugh whenever I see them.
Ani, most of the boys in the Wolf Pack are of Hispanic heritage. XD
I rather guessed that -_^. They still make me laugh for many reasons...
@Marshmallow: I wouldn't doubt. They're ignorant enough!
I love how srs the Wolf Pack boy-os try to look in the movies and in the promo pictures..
I know! They're so cute when they try to look all bad-a** *sniggers*
And a friend of mine sent me this a little while ago. I thought I'd share.
You just want to pinch their little cheeks because they want to act like action stars but they fail at it!

Seriously. Tay-Tay (Taylor Lautner) is cute in my opinion, but his acting is atrocious and the only thing he's really destined to be is eye candy and nothing else. I mean, look at the Wolf Pack! They all can't act and they're only there for the Twitards' eye ********. ...Sorry, that was really mean of me.
They really are... Why else would they be running around shirtless with their six-pack abs? Also, is Lautner even Native American? Doesn't look like it...

I think my local newspaper, the Jackson Sun, might give New Moon a high rating, but the Memphis Commercial Appeal is going to rip it apart. ;D I, myself, thought that New Moon would be better because a new director and a new script but you gotta remember, it's the actors who make it good.
I do agree about the actors--you could have a wonderful director, but craptacular actors and the movie will sucketh. And look at what Ebert's review; he obviously doesn't like the cast!
Besides, look at what the director is working with. You can polish a turd, but it's still a turd...Twicrap will never be good. Stephenie Meyer lost her chance for greatness by throwing common sense, logic, and plot out the window.
Seriously. The cast think they're the shiznit, but they're acting ******** SUCKS. Especially the actors who portray the Cullens; look at most of their careers: they mostly been on crappy TV dramas and teen movies.
I feel bad for Chris Weitz because the guy had to work with Meyer's work. And Weitz, himself, hasn't pulled out shining, brilliant movies, like The Golden Compass.
That's why New Sh*t has been described (on Rotten Tomatoes, I do believe) as a Jonas Brothers concert as a movie. The actors are talentless hacks just like the author...and most of them are not attractive. That...and Edbob's abs are airbrushed on...and Taylor Lautner looks like a pug with a bad hair-do. I don't understand what's so attractive about them. These guys are supposed to be extremely hot...and that's what we get. (At least they could make things easier on the eyes for those of us who have to sit through the crap--jeeze!)
And I doubt they made the plot any better. Ebert said the movie was slow and, well, made one want to bash their own brains out. I think I'll take the epic plotholes of Revenge of the Fallen, thank you. At least it's pretty to look at!

Animus Inanis Makoto Tsuru Animus Inanis Makoto Tsuru Animus Inanis MainManMing All my friends like twilight but ive never even read the books yet ...
Friends don't let friends watch or read Twilight...just don't do it man. The entirety of your left brain will be turned into a quivering, gangrenous mass!
@Everybody else: If you want a giggle, check out the Rotten Tomatoes site. New Sh*t was rated 29% and the reviews were rather less than shining. It made me happy, that it did!
Hallelujah! That's like worst than the first movie was rated when it came out.
Rejoyce! Let us commence the happy dance!
Which makes me wonder...does anyone know of any big-time literary critics that would dare touch these wastes of paper with a ten-foot cattle prod? I'm a bit of a Philistine when it comes to these sorts of things and I don't normally look at literary critiques...
And before I forget to answer the question about the awkward moment: Yes. It was strange. And I didn't mention Optimus, but I did very clearly say 'Arcee' and 'Starscream' within two sentences. Sometimes I worry about those I'm related to...
An unrelated note: I lost respect for someone who I thought was an intelligent fan-type person. He/she replied in a spam thread about how 'hot' Taylor Lautner was (that needs to be in the effing ED forum, not the damned Books forum!) and agreed with the illiterate thread author. My happy dance is now finished...and I commence the epic face-palming...
Hmm...No big literary critics that I know of have ripped it apart; it's usually the small-timers who do the real epic pwning of Twilight.
On the topic of your cousin: ...Seriously? XD When someone mentions Starscream, you automatically go, "Oh, you're talking about Transformers!" Ani, I feel so bad for you because of that. XD
Thank GOD for that one! Though I have to worry about where the local newspaper got their ratings for New Sh*t...the internet said 1 or 2 stars out of 4, but it said 3 1/2 stars. Wait...I'm not surprised...it's normal reporter idiocy!
Yes..my family worries me sometimes...I think she has selective hearing problems!
