Spoof trailer for Twilight, with the real movie trailer underneath.

Feminist Narrative and the Supernatural:  Waaaaaannnnnttttt!! (Which is not to be mistaken for "Buy for me!")

Stargate: Universe:  Strangely, not so sure I want. I mean, come on, why call it Stargate if it's primarily a space ship show?  And can't they leave the Ancients with a little dignity?  At this point, I'm amazed they were competent enough to tie their shoes, given how many times TPTB has had them make potentially-galaxy-ending goofs.  (Also, the emphasis on their being younger and wanting relationships makes me think of that one bit in 100, which is the only bit that made me want to hide, as it was so close to stuff that's out there.)

Poor RPattz gives the impression that he just sort of wants the craziness to blow over. Poor kid, he seems like a pleasant guy. And Kristen Stewart seems far too capable for Bella. She reminds me slightly of Emily Deschanel, who is most definitely not needing to be saved.

In most shots you see of them that aren't in character, she looks like the one who will be beating people up, and he looks like he doesn't mind.

You can't picture her stumbling in the woods while running for her life unless it's as a distraction to grab that nice, sturdy branch she saw.

I classify them both as pleasant kids who want to escape. But being 18, she seems to be trying harder to save face. (I half get the feeling that she's a fan who didn't realize how bad it was until she was playing Bella.)
