Kosher Ham Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Yea Me! I wont ever have to watch stuff like this. My girl knows that I wont go so she doesnt even ask me. Funny thing is god forbid I say I am going to watch the game with the guys...she would probably be offended. I ask, and she watches. Funny thing is guys in the past had asked her but she said she had other things to do. Unless it was her Dad. Hmmm...I might have found a keeper. Yea Me ! Again.

BALLz Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 Guys don't become obsessed with movies that completely suck. That's the difference between this **** pile and "guy" movies. And by completely suck, I mean in all aspects. I've seen plenty of movies that I didn't like the story line but it still had good acting. I've seen movies where I liked the story but the acting wasn't good, or the special effects were bad. I've read books I thought were great but the movie was horrible. This movie has absolutely no good qualities. Bad effects, story line is ok but nothing special and the acting is bording on porno quality. It's like watching a syfy original feature. Which even guys probably can't watch more than 5 mins of. The women started this mess. The guys complaining about it are just fighting back. I mean, if you like a crappy movie that's just fine with us. But when you try to pop it in the DVD player for the 10th time in a month we want to jam a broken chair leg through the middle of the TV.

Tulane Skins Fan Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Ok, I saw the first movie and I liked it. Honestly. I actually thought the two had good chemistry together, which helps to at least make it seem like there is good acting. Also, I'm sorta into the vampire movie thing... not into gorey vampire stories, just the backstories of vampires, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grhqofb5 Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 How about every time the girl makes out with a new farm animal, you take a drink. From what I can gather from the trailer, she's now making out with wolves or dogs or something. Maybe she'll move on to emu or cattle or water buffalo. Can't wait to see. What a freak.

Big Blue Joe Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Man up people... no drinking game is going to save you if you agree to watch this crap. get your balls out of your wife's handbag and learn to say "NO". In fact "Hell No" is appropriate. If she argues just say "you wanted a straight man and you got one..."I don't know. I thought the ending was kinda awesome: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special K Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Just got back from the theater...you guys playing this drinking game would have been trashed by the first 10 minute mark of the movie, lol. Totally cheesy movie, not good acting (especially by the girl, Bella...she annoys me). BUT, I still LOVED it!! I'll go back to see it this weekend, yeehaw! P.S. I'm not nearly as bad as my sister, who waited for hours last night to get into a midnight showing, then skipped out of her clinical dx class this morning to watch it again, and she's going back tomorrow, lolol.

ACW Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 So for those who've read it, is Meyer actually THAT bad a writer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus87 Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 So for those who've read it, is Meyer actually THAT bad a writer? I've flipped through my girlfriend's copy of the first book, just to check out what the fuss of the books was really all about compared to the movies.They're really pretty bad. A common criticism is that Meyer just has absolutely no vocabulary at all. She spends pages describing how "beautiful" and "perfect" Edward is to Bella, and then she'll just re-use really simple descriptive words like that over and over again throughout the book. It's pretty much like a 15 year old girl wrote her dream romance novel for her creative writing class project, which is really sort of fitting, because that's about the appropriate audience for this kind of franchise. Here's a sample of the book I just found in an online review: http://joesherry.blogspot.com/2008/12/twilight-by-stephanie-meyer.html I tried to keep my eyes away from his perfection as much as possible, but I slipped often. Each time, his beauty pierced me through with sadness. (pg 257) It gets worse because in the first two paragraphs of this chapter we get Bella’s narration about Edward’s “incandescently sculpted chest.” Seriously. I would say you can’t make this up, but clearly Stephanie Meyer did. Which goes back to my initial problem with Twilight's success. The movies, by all counts, are poorly acted, poorly written, have average special effects, and overall are just mediocre. But the source material they're based on is also widely considered pretty crappy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACW Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 This is depressing: not only did Twilight get $26+ million for the midnight showing, but it beat the previous record-holder by $4+ million. The previous recordholder: the last Harry Potter movie. HP>>>>>>>>>>>>>Twilight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's scarier about that is that it beats Harry Potter and The Dark Knight for that new record opening, which, if it continues along that trend, would put it on pace to gross about a billion dollars worldwide like both HP and Dark Knight did (making Twilight one of the highest grossing films of all time).
