Twilight: Finally, a reason

[kingandy]

I haven't had any reason to watch Twilight (or the sequel, Darkness Metaphor Something Something Later That Night) since the end of the trailer when I realised it was about vampires and not in fact superheroes.

However, having just stumbled upon The Catalog (from off of last year some time), I suddenly have the urge to download it and throw a Twilight Party. Purely because I'm pretty sure that list could be adapted to make a hella awesome drinking game.

Bella Is Clumsy or Makes a Reference to Her Clumsiness: 1 shot
Bella is Utterly Desolate at Edward's Absence: 1 shot
Edward's Kiss Makes Bella's Heart Literally Stop: Empty your glass

Just don't be the guy who decides to drink any time Edward is incandescent, scintillating or sculpted.

EDITED TO ADD: Well of course they exist already.

She's much less clumsy in the film - so much so you barely notice it.

Well, okay then.

The rest of it?

if you did the middle one for new moon everyone may as well just keep drinking, all night, constantly.

Everytime someone other than Edward attempts to go out with the supposedly plain, unattractive clumsy girl. Can I just say that thinking about it the vampires are possibly the most realistic part of the books.

sorry, you were saying something?

It is important, I am told, to remind oneself that the series is not and at no point pretends to be serious adult fiction (or even, say, Point Horror). It is thirteen-year-old-girl wish-fulfilment fic on a par with The Babysitters' Club.

"everyone may as well just keep drinking, all night, constantly."

SCORE!

I'm especially impressed that he built that body specifically for the film.

Because when Nev an I went to see it, we were the oldest people in there by 10 years, and it became an audience participation show, with the ooh, the ahhs, the sighs, the "I wish that was me"s and the girls who may well have been touching themselves.

There was certainly a lot of writhing.

Shlock pic, awesome experience.

"Both Rowling and Meyer, they're speaking directly to young people. ... The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can't write worth a darn. She's not very good."

It's the sort of thing that Cineworld season tickets are made for.

I read somewhere that he doesn't have much of an opinion of his own work.

Which makes me trust his opinion slightly more.

What materials did he use?

Are the blueprints available?

I'm sure I could spare the time for an additional project.
