Both the Twilight books and movie(s) are overrated. *prepare herself to die* And I still don't understand why so many people think that The Lion King is such a masterpiece and a great movie ! It's not that original ! Just because something's not original doesn't mean people can't think it's a great movie. I'm more than well aware that story has been done to death, but that version of it is still my favorite and always will be more than likely. Of course not, it's just that I don't really like The Lion King so I think it's overrated. When someone's asked "what's your favourite disney movie ?" they usually answer "The lion king !" and well, most people also says that the story is very original and unique that's why I said that. ;D Someone said "Slumdog Millionaire". Though I loved the movie, I must agree with that... I also agree with the one who talked about the Tinkerbell movie...

I hate how some people think Twilight is overrated therefore it is trash, boring, stupid, and a waste of time. :/ I love it for the plot, and the charactors and the way it was written. I didn't think anything about it was flat or boring, and this includes the movies. It seems like people hate it based on other people's opinions, and think it's cool to hate it because "everyone else" loves it. Or how people want to throw Hannah Montannah and the Jonas brother over a CLIFF. Now now, that would kill them my dears, and would be considered murder. Just my opinion.[/spam] Lol I didn't vote because I don't know which one to pick. Slumdog Millionare was a great movie, and I will always adore Lion King. <3

Although I didn't think the movie was great and the books, to be honest, weren't very well written, I still enjoyed them. There's nothing wrong with reading (or watching) "fluff" every once in a while, and ranting about how Twilight is eeeeevil and destroying peoples' brains or whatever gets quite tiresome. In my opinion the anti-Twilight horde is more annoying that the pro-Twilight horde - people like to hate things that are cool to hate. Of course, I'm not saying that if you don't like Twlight then omg u must be an idiot lolololol. XD I just think there's a bit too much of a negative hype around it. It wasn't THAT bad, and I'm sure a lot of people don't abhor it as much as they claim to.

I LOVED TWILIGHT. Don't care what other people think xD.
But I do think they wayyyyy overdid it. Like all the merchandise and stuff. But I love the books/plot/characters as Raerae said :3.

I loved the movie, I'll admit it. I did sit beside a hater (she had good reason to; we dragged her to the movies) so I did sort of joke about how bad some elements were but I couldn't stop thinking about it for about two days after I saw it. I think that's a good movie, haha. In fact, I think I'll watch the version I have on my computer.. again >.> <.<

I read all the Twilight books before deciding I hated it. Haha, at least I tried? It annoys me when people who haven't read the books / seen the film hate it, tho. They could at least try it, because they never know if they might like it. I decided I'd read it & make up my own mind, which I did and I didn't like it at allllll.
I guess fluff's just not my thing? *shrugs* Never seen the movie, never want to. xDD

^ Fluff's not typically my sort of thing either. But sometimes when you don't feel like thinking about what you're reading it can be kinda nice and relaxing, I guess? Plus it's fun to read exactly for the reason that it's poorly written, lool. XD

^ yeah, the first book was at least a little fun to read and I had some lols at Meyer's writing during it.. but the second book made me want to kill someone.
It just totally lost my interest, though I managed to read it all the way through with some will power. I couldn't even get more than the second page into the third book. I'd probably read the first one again, but I'm not shelling out money for a book that I just -don't hate-.
The second one I loathe with all my soul. ¬¬;;
