The Reasoning Behind Why I Hate Twilight (along with Stephen King) by TheMadHatterI agree with the first post to this thread, Bram Stoker's Dracula is awesome and should be the vampires that still roam the living imagination. Of course, I take into account that "women" in general (apologies to those that have xenophilia enough to like Vampires) like vampires because they're... um... sexy. But, Bram Stoker defines the creature well and whole. Those who walk in eternal days with mortal's souls perish longer and are bedded deeper into sins than any man they encounter solely for keeping their existence secret and their lives peaceful without much human intervention out of the norm. Dracula in Stoker's mind's eye is suffering from the forever ailment of man which is loneliness, acquired with man's prideful fury and distorted sense of justice. Powerful stuff to imbibe, I must say.But, nevertheless, more meaningful than your everyday run-of-the-mill tirade of having vampires loiter around the human world without source of reason other than peace and sex. Dracula longed for the only company he sought--the company of his love. Though, future renditions seem to steeple into the normal human thirsts and there comes greed and several other unnecessary sods out of the beaten historical psychopathology. Hence, my hatred for the Twilight saga.Why would they bother with a war against another bloodline with equal wants such as peace and habitat rights? If they were supposedly to trespass the wolves would have done a pact with them to stay out of society and live as hermits so to not pass on ergonomics of their kind. Lycanthropes are said to have a deep understanding of Gaia's sights and her people as well as the unfathomable burdens that come and stay or disappear. Having knowledge of their traits to be loyal to their Giver and Mother as well as guardians, to have the bloodsuckers have their way into a society is preposterous especially in their awareness and foresight of disastrous events. Such things would have long been settled. Even in the twilight saga, the lycanthropes are deep in ancestry and world ways. The lineage of competent lycans would have been able to ward off any unnecessary dangers.Another thing, even though they are teenagers... and, admittedly such acts of affection are evident, why publicise it with much rambunctiousness? And un-aplaudable writing skills--she has yet to master the art of discretion in choosing synonyms to drag a scene or chapter longer.In addition, the running commentary on the vampires' and lycans' looks. Indeed, there is sound reasoning behind wehy they have to be good looking, as for the vampires. But... the sparkles? Who the bl**ding **** would like Mr Sparkles as a boyfriend? Enough said.The sparkles are self-damaging in what way? They do not uphold in the light the self-battering and collective abuse that Edward Cullen gives to the Twilight universe characters. He respects his "family" though pacifies with rashness and impartiality. Impartiality because he doesn't consider the backlashes of emotional pain and effort for two people to be together with such differences and he goes and pushes the girl into his world where she isn't even aware of the dangers and still the girl persits...Plain blind faith is all well and good in blooming love... I would've just liked the blind faith in puppy love aura... then the girl does something stupid all together. Edward has given a good description of isolation and despair his kind takes--the girl decides to be bitten on prom night.Yeah. Stupidity at its grandest. She had just experienced the pain of being infected and has been given the description beforehand as Cullen so provides with the subtility of a sledgehammer.Yes.Now, at the end of my rant.

I do dislike it. Not because it's one of the more popular series right now, but because it just doesn't interest me. The Twilight books and movies are basically of the romance genre. Most romance novels are not my cup of tea.

I liked Twilight the first time I read it. It was kind of nice, and it was new, and I had time, and people said it was good, so I read it.That was as long as it lasted for me, lol. I don't HATE Twilight, per se, but I like other book series far better. I tried to reread Breaking Dawn - it didn't work for me. I just didn't find it as intriguing as I did the first time I read it... (cough Harry Potter is better cough):3
