Twilight complaints

I haven't seen it, but this article has some hilarious stuff about it: [Link]
Yesterday's release of Twilight made certain that your weekend will be filled with the sound of screaming tweeny fangirl hordes, an auditory experience that the movie's lead actor Robert Pattinson described as "terrifying ... like the sound you hear at the gates of hell." It would be easy to hate these creepy, utterly mediocre books and the phenomenon they've spawned — but I think you'll find it's even easier just to throw your head back and laugh. Next to the fangirl hordes are even bigger crowds of "lolfans," and they are here to remind us that Twilight has truly given us the greatest gift of all: oodles and oodles of hilarious, sardonic ass-kickery from people on the internet.

Actually, you don't even have to go to internet fandom for some of the most entertaining critiques of Stephenie Meyer's work — Pattinson himself got the jump on everyone by mocking the series himself in an interview with Empire magazine (published in their October issue).

Read the whole thing, including the 28 reasons Twilight the movie is better than Twilight the book. That is rare.

The only complaint I had was that they didn't talk about Jasper's power. THE. END.

KRISTEN WAS AWSOME!
ROBERT WAS AMAZING!
ANYONE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS MOVIE NEEDS TO SUCK ON AN EGG!!!!!
