| Great...in other words, New Moon's kombat was still somewhat censored, without justification, right?
If the New Moon movie was remotely better than the O.O.T.P movie, as well, its because New Moon's novel was massively weaker than the O.O.T.P novel, right?
At this point, i hope things may change, if the extended editions for Order Of The Phoenix ever came out, one day, right? | |

| Well to me all the Harry Potters books are better than the Twilight series. And yes I think they did censored some of the fighting from the New Moon movie I would have loved to see the wolves rip Laurent apart. | |

| What can i say?Apparently, Meyer can't either do even remotely decent, let alone epic, war scenes, to save her life, can she? That explains the Godsawful abuse of Climax-censorship, right?
If there is ever another thread of Star Trek Versus Star Wars, remind me to remind the both of them, that neither opposing side's starting protagonists had abused Plot-Armor to the corrupt extent that the twilight sequels had, in fact, compaired to twilight's plot-armor abuse - justification, Star Wars and Star Trek's Plot-Armors deserve A+'s, each! | |

That's part of it, but its mostly because Meyer never showed the positive results of love, apart from keeping someone sane. [Even Mead managed to do decently enough with the point of Love, i feel!] Meyer failed to justify too much of Bella's excess Plot-Armor, as well. In fact, no one should be having heavy layers of Sakuradite-powered, E-Carbon-Layered Plot-Armor, unless they even did enough to justify it. At least Rose Hathaway was trained like a Spartan Lady, all her life, and had her plot-armor get amplified from ressurection, before she did the crazy stuff in Frost-Bite that she did, with Mason. Bella failed miserably, at even justification on plot-armor. | |

| http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PlotArmorThis is Plot-Armor's definition, now i have to recall examples of Plot-Armor, like something in Rose's durable bones that's keeping her alive, and allowing her to actually succeed in her second time in trying to live a meaningful soldier's life, correctly. | |

| I'm pretty sure there was a more blatent example, when Bella jumped off a 40+ feet cliff, completed with godsawful weather conditioning! | |

| yea that would be a better example haha
I think that they showed laurent fighting the wolves in the movie was great seeing that it was not even described in the book, it was an extra in the movie.
I think the writing in Harry Potter was better, yes. | |

| The Plot-Armor introduction was better in a lot of other series, like Cirque Du Freak and Artemis Fowl, i feel. Need i add more? I wish we could see more of the too-short-to-work-well kombat between the wolves and Laurent. | |

| I was reading some blogs and found this one about how Twilight series are so bad written... http://reasoningwithvampires.tumblr.com/Note: I like the story and read the books many times and watched every movie and have all deluxe edition dvds but I also know that the series are not the best piece of literature out there.. just take the blog as a good laugh like me.. I have a good afternoon reading all the mistakes and comments!!! hope you will laugh as much as I did. | |

| Ahh yes, I knew I'd find twilight somewhere. I swear, Twilight is taking over my life! Everywhere I go... something's referencing to twilight. Hell... even my crush did! (Yeah, it was weird but funny) But here I am... now on this! Damn that was a long "intro" of me. Anyway... onward... I love Twilight series. Why? Well, I can *honestly* say I don't know why. It was just the first book series that I read and loved. (I used to be into series of unfortunate events, but I was in what, 4th grade?) It was so different. I read it... and I couldn't stop thinking of the characters. "What If..." things were always on my mind and until I had New Moon in my grasp, I couldn't tell my mind to STFU. I went ahead and found a forum for twilight online, signed up, and still to this freaking day I love HGE (I joined it January of... 2008?). =} I have made so many new friends from that one site that it's crazy. AND I've learned a lot of things too about everyone's home lands and such. A lot of people bag on twilight... and that's cool for them, I guess. In my opinion I don't get why people waist their time hating twilight... I mean, if you're going to dedicate your time creating lists on why its so stupid and/or why you hate it so much... well that's pointless because to me, that's like you're dedicating your sweet free time TO twilight by finding ways to hate it. (yeah... that was confusing, sorry...) Team Jacob, ftw. AND NOOO... NOT TEAM TAYLOR LAUTER'S SMOKIN' HOT SEXY ABS... (even though, tee hee... they are pretty smokin' hot.) I'm actually into Jacob because his character is so sweet and so dedicated to Bella. He's willing to give up everything for her. He'd do and/or say anything to make her happy and he's just screwed over so bad. Yeah... he ended up getting Nessie but seriously, that's the second best prize. It's like when you work REALLY hard on a project, turn it in thinking you'll get an A+ or First prize... then you get a B or the oh-sorry-so-close-but-you-didnt-win-BUT-i'll-still-give-you-a-little-ribbon-thing-instead. Nessie? Really? Not Bella. Sigh. Edward's annoying in my opinion, but I guess he does have his sweet moments. I used to be an EdHead fan, but I switched because I actually opened my eyes (...?) and saw (...) that Jacob's just as sweet and deserved better. BUT... IF WE WANNA GET TECHNICAL HERE... My favorite character is big bad Paul. Yes... Paul. I looove Paul. He has been my favorite Wolf Pack member, even back when I first read New Moon (Feb. 08) and HATED Jacob and the wolf pack. He was the only one I liked because he reminded me so much of myself. Bad attitude... cocky... sarcastic... low patience level... anger problems... (Wow, and I totally made myself look very evil right about now. But I promise, I'm nice! I just have my moments... but never have I turned into a giant grey wolf.) When I saw Alex Meraz (aka Movie Paul)... oh, was I so thankful for Chris Weitz. He is so goregeous. Well then. I think I wrote enough. I'll most likely be comming back to this.... hahaha | |
