Five Reasons To Dislike "Twilight"

1. Nikki Reed as a blonde with hardly any lines. Waste of talent #1. 
2. Anna Kendrick with straightened hair-- and they couldn't find any excuse for her to sing? Waste of talent #2. 
3. The numerous rape-esque scenes-- especially the ones that are (I think) supposed to be seen as romantic and not completely creepy/illegal. 
4. The notion that Bella's character would be seduced by lines like this: "I'm the world's most dangerous predator. Everything about me invites you in. My voice, my face, even my smell. As if I would need any of that. As if you could outrun me. As if you could fight me off. I'm designed to kill." Sexy! 
5. This alleged 'small town' has one of the biggest, cleanest and well-supplied public schools I've ever seen, in life or on film. It also appears that they offer only two classes: gym and biology. 

This began as a "ten reasons" list, but I would rather do lesson plans than re-watch the movie.

  1. Ever watch mystery science theater 3000 back in the day?
    Those guys are still at it, though now it's called "Rifftrax" and there's no little dudes in the theater and no inbetween bits.

    there are movies (like twilight, transformers, etc) that can only be fully enjoyed with an extra audio track making fun of said movie.
