Via [livejournal.com profile] calixa , 28 Reasons That Twilight The Movie Is Better Than Twilight The Book.

The excerpt used for #21?  A piece of my self-respect shriveled up and died just reading that.

That actually almost makes the movie sound awesome. Especially that bit with "food... sex... sex... cat..." I laughed. And they cut some of the worst offending lines?

Why do we get lion/lamb but not dazzle you? ;_;

The whooshing sound the vampires make may be just enough reason to go see this movie.

WHOOSH!

I will never understand why these books are popular.

Never, ever.

I've seriously got to see this movie now.

And possibly by lynched by crazy teenage girls while I laugh hysterically, but them's the risks.

I think the movie is most likely bad, yet I still think it will be more enjoyable then the books.

My biggest fear is that the movie is simply mediocre and has no entertaining value whatsoever.

What is this? It's like he's posing with a cardboard display at an Outdoor World shop or something. I have seen some craptastic stills from the film, but this is amazing! Hahaha!

(I have read 3 of the books and even though they suck I can't stop please don't shun me)

Not that this in any way makes me want to watch the movie (I read the books, is that not enough?!) but the actor they cast as Laurent is smoking hot.

let's see...

reasons 20-22 are what made me most afraid when I heard this movie was happening.

reason 18 I just can't wait to see (my boyfriend might actually be able to identify with poor Edward...)

reason 15 is just gonna be awesome.

reason 12 is just awesome.

reason 7 I can see so many different ways this would be too funny. 'When Rabid Fans Attack'

Reason 4 would more awesome if I wasn't sick of the word 'gaysian'. It seems rather demeaning to two seperate groups of people. i mean do you see any special words for gay hispanics? or gay white people? gay black people?

reason 1 cracks me up since RPattz wanted to play him as darkly flawed as possible.
I agree with the first commenter however--Angel and Spike, at their best, are cooler then these guys

Dude, the guy playing Jacob is smoking.

And those excerpts are truly terrible.

My husband and I went to the new Bond film tonight, and he was terrified by the humongous line of vapid, shrieking teengirls waiting to get into one of the showings of Twilight when we got out. At least he didn't have to go to the bathroom with them the way I did. *shudder*

The other vampires - Laurent, Victoria, and James - don't just appear out of nowhere on page 375 because Stephenie Meyer belatedly realized something needed to happen.

Oh, heavens, that's just the funniest line ever.

And you're right, that excerpt is totally crazy and wrong and I'm laughing so hard at it that I fear that just picking up the book and reading the synopsis will send me into a laughter coma.

My roommate's best friend made her go to that tonight and she texted me around midnight telling me how it was the worst movie ever XDDD

Twilight means never having to say you're kidding. Really. Where else do vampires actually sparkle? The only reason I know about these books, really is Cleolinda's recaps. It basically distills the books into the most crackalicious hilarious form possible.
