Twilight
 
So...

Anyone else's wife/girlfriend/significant other into this series?? My wife borrowed the first book (Twilight) from a friend two weeks ago and finished it in three sessions. Unreal. Felt like I didn't have a wife for a week or so!

Being the good husband I am, I ordered her the collector's box set on Amazon and now she is almost through the second one.

The DVD also came out today. I Redbox'd it and she's watching it now. :D

I sat through this with my wife, something about vampires not wanting to kill people seems wrong to me.

Wife is obsessed with the books. Read them all in like two weeks. She's getting the movie soon so I'll have to watch it again with her. The movie was decent. I won't touch the books though.

Wife picked them up last week and is almost through book 4. We watched the movie and it was ok, but she kept pointing all the places the movie deviated from the book.

My girlfriend read all the books in about a week. She went to the movie with her sister and said it sucked. I have no interest in the books or the movie.

I would hate to hand over my man card, but I actually enjoyed the move and want to read the books. I think that a lot of that may have to do with my wife's enjoyment of the series.

I'm with you, I really enjoyed the movie and may think about reading the rest of the books. I'm sure when the movie comes out in November that I will take Katie to go see and actually look forward to it.

My Gf is obsessed with this series. Since she finished all the books she moved on to another series by HBO called "True Blood" which apparently the author of the Twilight series jacked the whole storyline from.

The storyline is basically a badly written bastardization of a dozen or so different vampire stories. Between the self-obsessed and moronic teenaged girl and the self-obsessed and abstinent vampire, who plays baseball, (seriously, WTF?) this was a waste of my time and money. I won't spend any time watching the movie.

I cannot believe we are talking about this?!? I have read the first book and it was garbage. It is about 400 pages and the first 300 pretty much nothing happend. Last 100 all the "action" and it wasn't all that great. The author is a terrible writer (Stephanie Meyer I believe?). I cannot comment on the other books, but she did a very poor job on the 1st one. What she did was attract a target audience and they ate it up.

What is it with chicks and vampires anyway? Give me a good nasty alien any day.



Hey, that chick's not so hot - now, SevenOfNine? Wow.
