Twilight

Dear reader,

Yes. I caved and decided to see what all the hubbub was about. I was of course, always on guard. "A pop culture phenomenon" is what the cover said.

First off, I don't understand why women think that Edward Cullen guy is so hot. I'm secure enough in my masculinity to be able to say when I think men are handsome. Example, George Clooney. Damn handsome. Brad Pitt. Damn handsome. This Robert Pattinson guy? NO. *sprays girl with water hose* NO. BAD. BAD.

I must admit, the concept and the ideas behind Twilight are different. Vampires that don't die when shown in sunlight? Vampires that have a reflection? Okay, wait. They're not vampires. They're about as much vampires as mosquitoes are. Mosquitoes drink blood right? Oh man, that must make them vampires too.

Looking beyond that, the story wasn't too terrible. It was entertainment, which...let's just say, is what movies are supposed to do. Whether or not it was entertaining due to the good storyline or the terrible terrible dialogue is an exercise I leave to you.
