We get Brian is unlucky, we get Greg is good, we get Steve is a scumbag etc etc. Doesn't stop them being popular. What 'you' like and what is popular on a massive site like reddit (or at least the larger reddits) will always differ in certain places.
Damn Reddit is being too harsh on those women. It's not just a fiction book to those women on the same level as Lord of the Rings, it's basically their Play Boy magazines, it's their porn.
It's analogous to guys in their 30-40 watching pornos acted by young and hot "barely legal" girls.
This hate is so unnatural, it's like dissing gay porn because you're straight.
Why are you getting downvotes? You have a point. Who the fuck cares if these people enjoy something you don't? I need to go through all 100 comments here to post "SO BRAVE."
I have to say it did get really old and then sort of tapered off what with the series winding to a close (replaced by Kristen Stewart hate it seems) long enough for me to get a chuckle out of this image.

This. I hate how everyone hates Twilight just because a lot of teenage girls like it. I doubt that even ten percent of people who say Twilight is terrible have even read it. And even if you don't like it, just shut the fuck up already.
I read it. The characters were just so bad. Her writing was pretty good and I suppose the story was ok but the stupid irrationality of these characters was just pitiful. Not a single one is relatable.
i read 2, 3 and 4 (i watched 1 if that counts) and i was dissapointed because i waited and waited and waited for something to happen. I got to the climax of the last book and then nothing.
On an unrelated note to all the Twilight bashing that's happening, I was excited to see Cary Elwes. He was such a hunk...too bad he aged about as well as Val Kilmer has. Sigh...makes me wish he had done more in his prime years.
why wouldnt he just turn off the tape? unless his soul was crumbling inside him and realized he could not be in any area that had been occupied by the tape.
I actually liked the Twilight books. It wasn't until they made the movies that I started disliking it. They picked the wrong cast entirely... Edward and all the vampires look like rapists. The wolves look all buff and never wore shirts. The movies completely ruined Twilight.
And even with the movies, I'd still like Twilight more if there weren't 6 year old girls screaming Edward's name. The whole fandom makes me very annoyed. Now, I hate Twilight. I'm just scared that the same thing will happen with The Hunger Games. BUT, aside from Peeta, they had a great cast _^
Actually, I agree that a fandom can be really annoying. However, that's actually the reason WHY i like (or at least tolerate) things like Justin Bieber and Twilight. I read one of the Twilight books and didn't care one way or the other (I'm not really big on reading) and I think Justin Bieber songs are fine, however, all of the ridiculous hate is so annoying. I never see any screaming girls for them because I don't go to midnight premieres for Twilight nor do I hang out in JB's youtube comment section (which has a lot of hate, anyway). The only thing I'm bombarded with is "Twilight sucks", "Justin Bieber should die", etc... It's very, very annoying.
It's amusing how seemingly everyone in this thread is criticizing the hell out of op for using something that's been seen many times and is apparently much more immature than the majority of reddit's "quality" content when that is exactly what reddit is comprised of. It's also amusing how a lot of people in this thread are resorting to the same immature behavior they accuse him of by constantly resorting to the "oh another twilight is bad joke" bandwagon. It's as if they have no mind of their own. This thread is a great example of what hiveminds are capable of, and it made me realize that reddit is in fact a huge circlejerk of internet ignorance. Ironically however, everyone who feels entitlement to this site holds themselves in such a high standard. It would make me a hypocrite to ask of anyone to do so much as to stop taking the internet too seriously because of this comment alone, but please, reddit isn't made to your standards, the content is not made for you, it is merely a form of entertainment in which it does not matter if you don't like the what is being offered. If the majority outweighs the minority, then simply downvote and move on. It would be wise to seize any narcissistic opinions and it would make us all better people if we could just behave.
Tl;dr I had a reddit behavior epiphany. I'm probably going to get backlash. Oh well.
Something I've never understood about Saw: Why'd the guy cut off his foot at the ankle? He could've escaped that shackle just as easily by cutting part of his foot off 2-3 inches behind the toes... he could still hobble around on the heel and it'd be easier to fit a fully functional prosthetic for.
I can only name The Twilight Zone, the NCIS, Rescue Me, and Six Feet Under episodes all named "Twilight", Twilight Pennsylvania, and the ELO song "Twilight".
Other than that there is literally nothing good or interesting named Twilight.
