lol, I agree. TWILIGHT IS AN UNHOLY PILE OF STEAMING DOG ESSENCE THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN PUBLISHED AT ALL!
Anyway, The only way I can watch Twilight is if I watch it with the rifftrax audio in the background.
The running scene with them humming benny hill in the background gets me every time.

I have no idea how it got published. She must have rich friends or something.

Yeah, must be.
Otherwise, this would have never been seen.
At the risk of sounding older than I am (less than 20, I will say "Whatever happened to GOOD literature?"

Yeah, if I go into a "literature" section of the bookstore, I find chick lit and some token Twain and Dickens. "Chick lit" is not "literature"; it's insecurity passed off as empowerment and barfed up onto paper.

That is an excellent way of putting it.
Actually, that can go for things like bad fanfiction, too.
Maybe the two are actually kind of similar.

Well, chick lit is essentially about a Mary Sue who makes a lot of stupid choices.

Well, I don't find the initial Mary Sue so annoying-- many great characters could be seen as Mary Sues. But the thing it, it's how the world that's written *treats* that character that matters.
It doesn't even have to treat her badly to redeem her. The thing is, some stuff has to not care about the character. In Chick Lit, the main character is the center of the universe- all the world and good and bad things that happen revolve around her. Nothing ever just happens because it works out that way, or because somebody else was important in the event. It's all about the central character...

Yeah, that's the main Mary Sue argument. The whole universe revolves around the main character and you want to KICK HER ASS when she cries and whines about STUPID THINGS.

The thing is that most Mary Sue stories sort of have the right idea-- the character is acted upon by the world, and that sets motives and things. But they don't quite get it right.
I hate to sound so elitist like this, but sometimes you have just got to say no.

It's not elitist. No one will be reading these chick flick mary sues 100 or even 10 years from now.

If we're lucky and Twilight doesn't get any bigger.
Some schools are already assigning Harry Potter. D:

Rather read Harry Potter than Twilight. At least the first 3 books were actually good.

SilverBellsAbove In reply to Seldavia [2009-12-22 02:13:32 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, then she got attacked by her publisher making her write more.
I half expected to see a 'help holding me hostage send help' snuck into one of the sentences talking about Harry and Cho's doomed romance.

I could almost play the Benny Hill theme while reading that thing.
It was like watching them run around absurdly, doing *nothing.*

LOL, I got the "cardboard characters" idea from you.
This is actually based off someone's stamp, but I knew things like "Mary-Sueness" wouldn't make sense to the general public.

I think it was in the journal entry where I was complaining about the Twilight fans at Comic Con. Remember the guy moved to tears?

I think the website where you can download crazy fonts (without worrying about viruses) is 1001fonts.com. I think.
