Heh. Hehe. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
OK, OK, I'll play nice. I don't feel anything about the upcoming Twilight film. Should I? I'm not a fan, and I am definitely a critical bystander. I've read the first book and I refuse to see the movies because suffering through 300+ pages of...whatever that was, was bad enough. Reviews of the films by those who aren't screaming fans have told me that my decision to ignore the films was a very wise one.
If you want to ask about a movie that's got legitimate criticisms aimed at it, how about you ask a question about The Last Airbender. That's a film over which there should be much discussion, and yet, very few people outside of the fandom have been really talking about it and all the ways Shyamalan has failed in making the film. (Though I was happy to see Roger Ebert touched on the white-washing of the cast in his half-star review.)
But I guess we can't ask the really tough questions and must instead remark upon Edward's brooding eyes and Jacob's toned abs.
