Is twilight worth watching?
Twilight is directed by catherine Hardwicke starring Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson. The movie is based on a novel by stephenie Meyers. the plot revolves around 17 year-old Bella Swan(Stewar) falling for a mysterious boy(Pattinson) who turns out to be a vampire and also makes bella say it out loud (don't know why) but then the movie ends up being good vampires (who survive by drinking the blood of animals) Vs. the bad ones (who of course live on people).
Though I am a major vampire movie buff but twilight failed to impress me. The dialogues were down right cheesy and the dialogue delivery was even worse than that. Even the novel had several errors in it and the whole legend was brutally distorted for instance the whole glowing-in-the-light deal **whatever taht was***(Meyers should have checked it before she wrecked it) and I cant belive it actually bagged the MTV best movie award!!
Yeah!

Well.... if you have a vampire fetish and want to see a hot vampire, ya! There's just something sexy about vampires. And I know it's a ... um... common thing... that women agree with... and there aren't always vampire movies about love, so why not? It's definitely captivating and it might get your blood rushing (because all i wanted was for the guy to just get naked, but I was hoping for too much), but 'eh. It's serious "teenage" drama stuff on a side note. I haven't read the books, and I saw the movie because my sis-in-law is obsessed with it, but it's not awful. I'm pretty sure most guys won't like it though, but I think girls find it worth sitting through at least. :-) Side: Yeah!
Hey! My opinions being downvoted on a friggin movie is absolutely ridiculous. At least I brought more to the table about it than anyone else. Downvoting just because your opinion is on the "no" side makes no sense. It's destroying the point of a "debate." And as far as I'm concerned, no one even has a better argument than "it's teenage drama and it's cheesy." Woopie doo. Side: Yeah!
"The dialogues were down right cheesy and the dialogue delivery was even worse than that. Even the novel had several errors in it and the whole legend was brutally distorted for instance the whole glowing-in-the-light deal whatever taht was*(Meyers should have checked it before she wrecked it) and I cant belive it actually bagged the MTV best movie award!!" Remember, this movie is aimed at the teenage population. Adults aren't really going to give a crap about it. The lines may be cheesy, but since when have you ever been around a newly dating couple who is falling in love and NOT seen them say cheesy stuff? And I do agree, it was definitely made with a Hollywood mindset in mind. In fact, have you read The Historian? It's a great book on searching for Drukuyla, and I googled and found out they're in the beginning stages of making a movie on it. And guess what the first of the few things I managed to read about the movie version of it is? They're looking for actors that express a "sex appeal"....total Hollywood style.... and I'm really pissed off, because it already sounds like it's going to lose the character of how great a movie it COULD be if it wasn't to focus around a sexy girl and guy. Ugh. Side: Yeah!
Of course! twilight is great and if you don't want to watch it then don't. some twilight fans like me love it but i suppose it is personal choice. some people think its horrible. If you want to watch it then watch it. It has a great story line and excellent acting. It is awesome!!! Side: Yeah!

Yes, only because Robert Pattinson is hot. The movie is a dreadful adaptation of the book, but that's common among books turned to movies. I was really disappointed with the way it was produced and all the things left out, especially in the development of the romance aspect. It was really difficult to understand the relationship Edward and Bella had if you hadn't read the book to know the backstory. So is it worth watching? If you're a heterosexual woman or a homosexual man. Otherwise, ehnh. Side: Yeah!

Eh, if I wanted to see a human date a vampire, I'd watch Rosario + Vampire. About as well written, follows practically the same formula and it's intended for heterosexual teenage boys. Look, you can do stuff like this, all you want, I just don't want to see men dumped because either they watch something like that, intended for men, or because you're going on some search for some Edward-type character. Just remember, guys like that don't exist, you DON'T have the moral high ground and your boyfriend doesn't want to see it. Okay, I don't expect you to do that kind of stuff and neither should you. Can still be a good fantasy. Side: Won't myself but let 'em have it

Is it WORTH watching? Well, I don't know. It's certainly not a total waste of time, and it can be fun if you don't take it too seriously. It's a refreshing way to escape, and it's self-indulgent. In moderation, things like Twilight are not the end of the world to enjoy. But whether or not you consider indulging a guilty pleasure to be "worth it" is up to you. Side: Yeah!

A girl falls in "love" because a guy is hot and mysterious. The guy, who's a sparkling vampire, falls in love because the smell of her blood is amazing and he can't read her mind. Add to the fact that the characters have no personalities, gaping plot holes and logic, and things that should piss most people off, especially women (ex: the way Bella is treated, the psychological abuse that takes place, having sex with an unconscious Bella, etc.) and you have a movie that would make buy the movie simply to watch it burn in my fireplace to exorcise the evil.

Vampires are whatever creative direction wants them to be the beauty of fiction is that the creator creates it, why should they tell the same story as everyone else it would make for pretty monotonous movie making. If you find it stupid and the dialog bad and all the rest of the comments you made then I think you have answered your own question in the questions description. Personally I don't like them it is slow and romantic, not my type of movie. MTV by the way is not the awarding body to whom I would reference for quality films. Side: boring
I guess it mostly depends on your sexuality, Twilights basically the magical girlfriend thing for straight women and gay men, we could use it to defend pornography incidently. both survivesbecause the target audience wants the perfect relationship, so they give them a chance to fantasize about it. I say let them have Twilight, and use that to excuse OUR porn. Side: Won't myself but let 'em have it

vampires are supposed to be blood-thirsty scary creatures! werewolves are supposed to kill without caring who it is! and this stupid author is making them... romantic? in love with a dope-head who does NOTHING? Twilight completely mocked the awsomeness of vampires and werewolves. And the ending of the series is pathetic. so she gets pregnant? this series is awful. BTW jacob is the ugliest little 12 year old i hav ever seen! spray on abbs... lol Side: I'd rather watch my dog poop!
i rather watch my dog eat his poop!! but yeah twilight is worth watching if you just love bad acting, ugly people, pathetic weak females, boys tempting to fight but never actually throwing down, forced drama/problems , and did i mention BAD ACTING!!!!!!!!! Side: I'd rather watch my dog poop!

The book was readable and had some interesting characters. However, it should never have been made into a movie. The characters are too awkward to shine under a camera. Also all the "I love you Bella" "No! I love you more!" "NO I LOVE YOU MORE!" is boring. Not enough action. Side: I'd rather watch my dog poop!
