_"Is Twilight the WORST Thing Ever?"_
That would be 50 Shades of Grey.
Is 50 shades of grey the worst thing ever?
No there's this thing called
TEEN
TITANS
GO
Icicle Jr Prft, I've seen worse.
Both twilight and fifty are the worst thing ever
But there's sex.Actually thats the only thing good about it.
Disappointed Turtle "Alois Hitler was still a nicer guy than his son Adolf."
But we here have more case of Kim Ir Sen and Kim Dzong Il..
I remember when the first Twilight came out on DVD and one of the taglines on the back said, "The best romance since Titanic."
I just laughed.
@Grace Jackson
Yeah right.
Like the kittens in your profile pic.
Adnan Asif hey what’s wrong with kittens?
Grace Jackson nope
At least they were in on the joke
I thought it was a horror movie
I never thought Twilight would be the downfall of society... I just thought it was shit.
And it is.
***** Well it spawned 50 shades of grey and it made more money than anything most writers could even hope to make.
darkfur3
Are you implying 50 shades isn't shit as well?
***** No I'm implying that it actually might be the downfall of society.
+TheDeepPix3l Society will die by a death of a thousand cuts. We can only argue which cut was Twilight....
+TheDeepPix3l You got that right. And to think....that I only have two more movies to finish watching. *uuuggghh!!!*
Twilight - Still a better love story than Twilight.
Wait, what?
Well, still a better story than 50 Shades?
Wait that's illegal
One could say that the bed gave the most *wooden* performance!
Kill me.
Badum-tssss
no it gave the the best performance
+Llamamall But it was beaten by Kristen Stewart.
coolington McCoy Someone didn't get the joke
Llamamal
Ah Twilight. That was a thing. Now I find the DVDs all over goodwill stores.
+TalesOfGamerz that's because people evolved. no one wants them any more XD
*****
Good. lol
+mynameisDAQ nope. whole more book left at least
I wouldn't be surprised if people bought and used the twilight DVDs as a doorstop, a coaster or a fly swatter
Carl Bloke
Or litter box shovel.
You forgot to mention Bella's inability to pour ketchup.
As a werewolf myself I find Twilight as in insult to werewolves and vampires.
Let's just watch the movie with the basketball werewolf
It's also responsible for 50 shades of gray.
I’ve never wanted to slap a movie more since the last Airbender movie
@@adeleaslan8182 we don’t speak of that movie 🙅🏻♀️
@@alibrennan5977 sorry I forgot the rule: there is no movie in Ba Sing Se
I think this franchise, 50SOG, Son of the Mask, Pluto Nash, Batman and Robin, TLA, 365 Days, AND Ghost Dad are just instruction manuals for the Antichrist. Or a list of torture devices for spies. One or the other 💀
I’m not defending Twilight but a story based off a story that is at best mediocre or just flat out bad can only result in something worse
Twilight is a fanfic written by a tweenager. There's no way around it.
Except it was written by a middle aged woman.
TheBlarggle That's just what she WANTS you to think ;3
Entity1037 Oh shit! Stephanie Meyer has me duped!
With the mind of a teenager.
Nipples O' Tungsten OH GOD THAT AVATAR PIC KILL IT WITH FIRE
I remember when the first Twilight movie came out on DVD and my sister brought it over to share. I have no idea why she thought it would interest me, but she insisted it was fantastic.
So, I popped it in and after a minute she excused herself to the restroom. By the time she got out I shouted "There's something wrong with the DVD!"
She came into the living room to see what was wrong and was a little nervous to see that the T.V. was blank. She asked me what was wrong with her brand new movie.
I replied "It keeps sayng stupid shit whenever I hit play!"
I couldn't even reach the sparkling vampires for the lol factor. I just...couldn't do it.
Poor soul
I'm sorry for your pain, but at the same time that punchline was freaking gold!
THE FIRST OFFICIAL NOSTALGIA CRITIC EDITORIAL EVER!
LegoGuy87 BOI
I don't like Twilight, but I don't have any animosity towards it either. Its one of those things that's just...there.
It definitely deserves hate
Like a fly on a wall, you could smack it with a swatter but you'll do it later
I feel the same, I don't care enough to hate it, but then again, it created 50 Shades, so .... Yes, lots of hate.
What? Then you aren’t part of the cool people club. If you don’t love a movie, you are supposed to hate it with a passion, and seek out ways to let people know.
I whole heartedly yet respectfully disagree with you! The fact that it exists doesn't bother me but for a while it was everywhere. EVERYWHERE!
Same with the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy: my (ex) friend managed to make me see it, and when it was over I tearfully apologized to my DVD player... That poor thing saw many bad movies but I legit felt bad for it after forcefully shoving Twilight and FSoG into its poor insides...
A better love story than Twilight is Stardust. A young man named Tristan falls in love with a million year old fallen star named Yvaine. I love it really 😊
OMG I love that movie, too!
It's one of my all time favorites!
Any love story is better than Twillight. Pobably with the exception that 50 Shades of Grey. And i say probably 'cause i haven't seen any of these franchises, and never will or shall!
😒
"Oh. I'm getting married. Sucks."
I laughed so hard, I'm afraid I woke my mom up... XD
Another thing that makes that people hate about this movie is how it created a huge amount of backlash to the cast, especially Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson. Yeah, Robert's hate has gone down a lot since he started doing good movies again and people started noticing he can actually act, but the real issue is Kristen Stewart. Yes, you can say anything about her acting skills(I personally think she is a really good actress), but because of this series, a lot of people actually hate her as a person for her acting in Twilight. Fun fact, she said she acted bland and uninteresting because that is how she felt the character was, bland and uninteresting. And it's true. Most, if every character in this series is a plain sheet of paper. Hell, even a plain sheet of paper has more character than these...*characters*. She said she doesn't care about the backlash she gets but it's still pretty sad.
Dantaefett Icus Kristen needs to find good movies again, because after Twilight she's only been in more garbage and still acting like it as well. It's almost like the movie sapped her good acting, at least Robert Pattinson recovered.
Dantaefett Icus I don't know... every photo I've seen of Stewart in makes it look like the concept of emotions isn't something she's fully internalized. Still, I saw her in The Messengers & thought she did a decent job (at least she seemed like a believable teen in that one). The role or direction can really make or break a performance. Maybe she needs to make a break from her usual roles into something completely unexpected.
Dantaefett Icus Yeah, I think Kristen Stewart is a decent actress, too.
It's sad that she gets a lot of hate for her involvement in Twilight, but..maybe that'll die down in a few years? I don't know. She's in a new movie called _American Ultra_ and that movie looks good.
Dantaefett Icus When it comes to bland actors, that's exactly what Harry Potter is. Does the least amount of moral sacrifices and has everything laid out for him while his friends do the heavy lifting. Yet few people care.
It's a bad film for many reasons but it's undeserving of that high extent of hate that it gets.
Yeah. I hate that Kristen Stewart gets so much hate for being in these movies. Like you said: Bella IS a bland and uninteresting character, so how was she SUPPOSED to act?
I hate love triangles right now. They're not actually love triangles. For a proper triangle, you need A to love B, B to love C, and C to love A. Not A having to choose between B and C
Meghan Lyle Uh, the first triangle requires at least one bisexual to work. Otherwise, I get your point. Bella’s ”love triangle” is more like a ”love vector”.
The term "love triangle" is a misnomer, but everyone knows the concept, and trying to revise the term at this point is futile. You'd have better luck arguing for Clark Kent's glasses to be removed from Superman lore because "they shouldn't disguise him."
2 years late but consider this:
Jealousy angle
(No i didn't come up with that)
Yeah that's a love V....
I hate them too. They are very boring
So Belle is the male protagonist in a harem anime?
Ryan G Or Hentai, since males in harem animes usually have more of a character.
Ryan G Well Shuffle's protagonist is pretty much Belle.
Zadamanim Is it bad that the only thing about Shuffle (the anime, never read the visual novel) that I remember is how fucking crazy Kanaeda (not sure if I spelt that right) was? Seriously, talk about a 180. Going from typical harem tropes to learning that Kanaeda tried to murder the protagonist...multiple times.
***** Yes Kaede going insane was pretty much the highlight of shuffle. That and the weird Primula subplot that never really made much sense to me.
Well, while harem protagonists are typically blanks slates with only the minimal 'good guy' traits and obvious cliché lines like 'You aren't alone anymore' and stuff, there are plenty of creative characters who are fun to watch. Kimihito Kuruso (I believe that's the spelling) from Monster Musume feels more of a parody than anything else, as I kid you not, his actual name is dropped once in the entire anime and manga respectively in the first episode/chapter. Plus, his eyes are usually just circles, unless it's either serious or romantic. Even then, he's actually got more personality than most. Then you could look at Arata from Trinity Seven or Shinobu Nanjo from Tsuki Tsuki, who are both very entertaining to watch, as they flirt back and actually banter instead of immediately growing embarrassed (though they do do that).
I agree. Twilight is pretty awful and Bella is a terrible character. But I honestly don't think many people who grew up with Twilight are going to use Bella as a "role model." I think we've moved past that. I don't like Twilight, and being a feminist it is pretty sad to see the painfully stereotypical gender roles, but I'm not going to spend a ton of energy hating it. For a long time I feel like so many people put so much effort into publicly hating Twilight and therefore giving it more attention and recognition. If you don't like something, just ignore it. And I do know a couple people who like it and I don't go around screaming at them "how dare you you are an awful person for liking it." If you have nothing better to do with your time them go on Twilight hate sites then your life is pretty sad. Just ignore it and move on. The same principle can be applied to 50 Shades. Don't give the thing more attention with your hate, just ignore it and hopefully it will go away faster.
I like the movies but I don't know anyone that would use bella as a role model.
Thankfully, these movies are pretty forgettable in the end. I still don't remember the order of events, and I read the books and movies because I was curious.
That's how i feel about the movie pearl harbor
I can die at peace then... knowing US girls at least found Bella a terrible char and won't follow her example XD
Feminists...?
You're not an extremist, are you?!
i think it got hated because it was so stupid and took itself so serious and the actors are bad
Nipples O' Tungsten yes, but i think its overhated to
i mean, shark nado is bad, jaws 3d is bad...but those bad movies are kinda fun to watch
really, one could say it is because they fucked up the concept of what vampires truelly should be, but lets be honest...there are loads of zombie fans and overall monster fans, but vampire fans ? no not really
the only reason this movie is so hated is because it is pussy bait and a lot of men are angry because of that
For me i hate it because it was wasted potential. This could have been a great romance movie that both men and girls could enjoy like the relationships we see in comic book movies that for the most part both men and woman love, but not only do they ruin the vampire and werewolf mythos but the writing is terrible the characters are terrible the romance is terrible and its just a story for pre teen girls
Adrijana Radosevic corpse bride?
Adrijana Radosevic Actually i disagree, i think there are some good romantic films out there. Most are cliche at best but there are a few films that stand out among the shlock. Have you seen "When Harry Met Sally?" That is, in my opinion, one of the greatest and most insightful romantic comedies of all time. Or maybe "500 days of Summer" the film that literally starts out after the couple has broken up. Or "The Last Five Years" where we see what brought a couple together bit also what ultimately caused their relationship to fail. Romance is just like any other film genre, most of it's pretty sub-par shlock for mass consumption, but there are also quite a few that stand out as exceptional.
Kaitlin Dimick
True i am not a romance movie person but i love Whisper of the heart.
There was a Time Magazine interview where Stephenie Meyer stated that fictional characters shouldn't be seen as role models. Just that statement alone made me hate her even more. It also made me open my eyes as to how a good amount of people can make something as stupid as _Twilight_ into a hit.
Well, that's probably because authors generally create two kinds of character. One is the moral-holding characters whose purpose is to become the role models, while the other is the kind of character that's just...well, *is*. Kind of like a toned-down wish-fulfillment character I believe?
I mean, I sure as hell won't make Deadpool my role model, but he's a such an amazing badass so I like him. Something like that I suppose.
John Smith That's the thing, you're suppose to connect to those characters. If you can't, then they're flat and uninteresting. What I had the most gripes with is because they're fictional, you can't learn anything from them. And that's not true. The main purpose of a character is to show, not only strengths, but flaws that resonate with all of us.
Even someone as deranged as Deadpool has a goal in mind. It's not his actions that make him a role model, but his motivation to stay alive for his girlfriend, and doing everything he can to be with her. And that's something to admire. That's what I think anyway.
Ryan Hartwell
Love how you view characters :D this is simply remarkable.
And yes, using the "they are fictional" excuse just shows how bad the character they created is. I, too, would rather see a character that I can learn something from rather than a bland character with the "put-face-here" gimmick that a lot of authors tend to make.
*****
To be fair, there was a time where Deadpool had a girlfriend in the comics (dunno which issue that was tho). Pray tell, are you referring to Deadpool's Original Sin arc? That is admittedly one of his best moments :D
well we did it with frozen and we'll do it again
"It is very weird to watch a kid grow and i guess be thinking, yeah, im gonna bang that someday" Tell that to Robin from FE Awakening
Add "The Seven Deadly Sins" where a thousand year old man watches over a child and starts harassing her when she grew up.
Adrijana Radosevic Robin in FE is also the good guy, and he/she can marry his friends' children and have children with them. JAPAN
moonymonster for the record, Robin doesn't know any of them as the children they are in the present and not from the future because none of them have been born yet. Also, since you chose who Robin marries, it's on you if it's creepy.
1) Lucina gets born in Act 1
2) Future Lucina arrives in Act 2
3) Bangs Lucina, a miraculous all grown up daughter as old as F Lucina and Robin appears
4) Lucina remembers that she actually came back to the past in order to kill Robin, but he commits suicide to defeat the big baddie before she gets the chance to off him (or get properly pregnant for that case)
And what are we left with? Two of the same person in one time period (albeit of different ages) and Morgan who shouldn't even exist as she was never born in the first place.
Oh hai Crom! Oh hai universewide timecorporal mindfuck paradox!
We really do give kids too little credit these days. (Not saying there aren't a few who deserve less credit.) Growing up watching and idolizing Batman, I never wanted to throw on a cape and go out fighting people. Instead I took some of the core values that he stood for to heart.
Exactly
I actually calculatedbhow viable it would be when I was a kid
My conclusions were
1 the amount of money needed was a no go
2 their is no way a human can survive ley alone perform that amount of physical activity and strain on body
Conclusion not viable and seriously harmful for my own personal health so no
Actually a really tough question. I'll put Twilight in my top 10 list. Other candidates include Iggy Azalea, stinky people at Walmart, the Kardashians, and having to use public bathrooms to drop a deuce.
Mine is M. Night Shamalamading dong, UKIP, Ubisoft, EA, the vocal part of America, FNAF fanboys, FNAF, Cod fanboys, Cod,and Frozen. Not in that order
***** Don't go to a state park public bathroom. Yesterday a few of my friends and I went swimming at a state park because we were camping nearby and someone shit in the changing room and someone cummed in the toilet and didn't flush.
***** Kanye West, the FNAF fandom,Tumblr SJWs, and shameless money cashers are up on my list too.
***** Oh god..public toilets. The horror......
***** No Kanye?
Is twilight the worst thing ever?
Fifty shades of grey: "Hold my beer."

IGNORA IL MIO NICKNAME PLS
@@heheboi6791 Mi ero completamente dimenticato di questo commento! Grazie per la correzione anche se credo fosse un errore di battitura dovuto alla tastiera vecchia, ma è comunque un errore banale e imbarazzante da lasciare così com'è.
Yeah, I'll give Twilight a few (VERY few) credits. Such as the lesson of "reckless sex results in a painful and regrettable experience". Also, "cheating and seducing = BAD, also may result in death".
Man, you have a point right here
Yeah but there are better ways to tell that story. Plus it wasn't exactly reckless, they were married and virgins and thought to be infertile so that's the worst way to tell that message you do everything right and still get punished?. I could imagine it if they were unmarried and just forget any protection and not care.
And cheating well no that's too harsh you should be punished but you don't need to die.
Aaaand actually you're the one who has the point... ^^'
Miz Fits Thank you.
+L. T C. I just mean it
These movies make the Star Wars prequels look like cinematic master peaces
Adam Onis I liked the Star Wars prequels more than Twilight.
Angus Ng
We all did
Will Ankers Yep.
Now the Sequels in turn make Twilight look better in comparison.
It's like poetry.
yes.
"Oh, I'm getting married. Sucks."
I laughed way too hard at this.
Still a better love story than 50 Shades.
Pretty Woman is a better story than 50 Shades.
Well, that's kind of obvious. I mean Twilight might be a worst love story written to that point, but a fanfic of it would obviously be even worse
mancubwwa
I've wondered why the worst fanfics become the most successful (like the ones where the main character is in an abusive relationship because she thinks she can change the guy). Like Fifty Shades starting out as Twilight fanfiction and then becoming published and getting a movie deal. And don't get me started on After plus its sequels.
I don't understand how my 13 year old self (I'm now 17) was able to get through half of the first After book on wattpad before I lost interest in it.
I dunno... I mean, mormons do seem to think that these are the last days of the earth. Maybe Stephanie Meyer was just trying to hurry things along?
+CursedNocturne It's not just Mormons.
Got Back in the Kitchen I know, but Stephanie Meyer is a Mormon. That's the joke.
Avon Rae its possible
Well, the books aren't bad in my opinion. However, maybe she was trying to hurry it along with the decision to let them be made into movies.
Being Mormon fits her writing style, and also the lady who wrote 50shades. Mormonism, is like the fan fiction version of Christianity.
"Is Twilight the WORST Thing Ever?" Let's see....it romanticizes abusive relationships, stalking, bestiality, necrophilia and pedophilia. Has some of the WORST characters to ever be conceived in modern fiction. Sodomized both vampire and werewolf (even though technically they aren't werewolves, they're shapeshifters) lore into oblivion with romantic bulls***. Set feminism back another 20 years (even though 50 Shades would take it back another 35 years) with the creation of Bella Swan. Inspired "50 Shades of Grey" which you can argue is even worse. My conclusion: Yes, it is. Am I missing anything?
jbvader721 idk man have you seen lemonparty?
jbvader721 I think the feminazis and SJW's did more damage to feminism than twilight and 50 shades combined could ever do
Aaron Davis Feminazis and SJWs are making it so women in 3rd world countries don`t get rights.
Zadamanim Fuck that made me lol more than i should have. XD
***** ah im glad...
let us never forget lemonparty
I took my girlfriend to twilight. I accidentally left our two tickets in my car. I went out and found six more on my windshield.
ouch
Ian R. Nava Huber I guess it was a good thing you accidentally left your tickets.
By the way how are you two?
I actually appreciate how you didn't bash it the whole time. We've heard all of that before. Very refreshing to try and take a different approach and I very much agree with what you had to say.
5:11 So, Twilight is basically a Werewolf/Vampire x Reader fanfiction? Sounds pretty accurate.
This is the first NC video I ever saw, it holds a special place in my heart.
Twilight: Still A Better Love story then 50 Shades Of Grey.
I read the book, because I had a friend that was very invested in twilight. I had pictured the scene of him walking into the sunlight much different, it described in the book as if his skin turned a crystal, I was picturing like the pirates of the Caribbean when the moonlight touches them, his skin becomes translucent and you can see the skeleton underneath. I was very disappointed at these super glittery sparkle crapped that they came up with
The books and movies are terrible, mostly for the actitude that the characters have around different situations. What pissed me off more is the fact thay it is actually a nice setup , vampires and native werewolfs, the mythos is there but the love story and lack of personality ruins it .
Hey one good thing that came out of it was that Robert Pattinson has a descent acting career after this movie, and is now our new Batman.
- Vampire don't sparkle in sun, they die ... like Gremlins !!!!!
- Why a vampire go to school when he is a hundred yers ols ?!?!
- Why Bella as always the same expression of "duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
- Why is wherewolf animagus from Harry Potter ?
- How can a vampire give birth when he's not alive !
- Why Jacob fall in love whith a baby ?
vampire giving birth..............to be fair that has happenned way before twilight and will happend way after twilight (in grim advenures of billy and mandy dracula had a son, and the son had a son). No to mention wizards of waverly place
At least the first two are explainable, since, to my knowledge, the sun weakness is not always consistent in vampire lore, and some iterations of vampires for example only get sunburns really fast (Hotel Transylvania Dracula), while others simply have their powers suppressed in the light
Is Twilight the WORST Thing Ever?
Short answer: yes
Long answer: Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees.
Yeah I think you know this small reference.
Jokes aside, I found this to be one of the worst, if not the worst piece of cinema ever. It puts actual movies to shame. I mean at least some movies TRY and even if they fail and suck terribly, they have tried or at least are not cringeworthy. I mean twilight is basically a self insert novel about the writer's fantasies. It's fanfiction stuff. Fuck even the fanfiction about twilight (50 shades of grey) is now a movie. Bloody hell this is atrocious!
Fuck Twilight.
And FucKonami too since we're at it!
rude not nice because you saying you are the worst because you said something about someone
+Jeffrey Pedro What? I'm sorry, I couldn't get what you were saying here.
If you consider this to be the worst piece of cinema then CLEARLY you haven't been around long
+Jeffrey Pedro a cute little attempt to sound smart... in reality, what you just said made no sense.
wrong the correct answer is 50 shades of gray
title question. Yes, yes it is.
What about teen titans go?
Icicle Jr nope twilight is still worse. teen titans go only ruined one show, twilight has ruined 2 entire genres.
+clericofchaos1 yea, it killed vampires for me, forever. goddamnit even dracula can't save this genre
+clericofchaos1 gothic horror got new life in my eyes from Bloodborne. other than that, werewolves and vampires haven't gotten very good treatment lately. You may say, "but there aren't any vampires in bloodborne" (debatable), but there are DEFINITELY NOT vampires in twilight; just creepy glowy douchebags.
Actually Hotel Transylvania revived the real vampires along with the other monsters
Fast forward to 2022 and no one even remembers twilight anymore
I think that's for the best.
Cause we somehow got a franchise way worse since, Fifty Shades of Grey
I don't know why people would watch Twilight, just watch some porn and make up your own story as you watch it, it's not that hard. (Badum tish)
That would probably be more entertaining anyway xD
because its good and not all people are the same
women don't like seeing other women getting sex, they want imagine or see themselves getting the action, not the women. That's why they like to READ porno, so they can imagine themselves being the one in the story instead of a movie where they're visually seeing a woman getting romanced.
speak for yourself. Why do you assume all women only like to read porn? A lot of women like to watch porn, shit I'll admit I do.
Still a better love story than Twilight
0:20 "Nothing generates more brainless love or cynical hate than Twilight."
This must have been filmed before the Brony phenomenon.
Not sure if hating on bronies or stating internet opinion.
Benson Diep Just an observation. There are few people in the middle; you either love it or loathe it.
Daric Soldar I'm in the middle
Daric Soldar few people who post online, anyway. Most people are either silently watching the show or they don't care, the biggest problem online is actually the people who bother posting stuff on it.
Ultradalek7 But those other franchises don't seem to garner the same unabashed religious devotion or incessant hate as does My Little Pony. Most people either really love FNAF and Doctor Who or just ignore it. It is very difficult to ignore MLP and the Brony cultists.
Fun fact: I insulted Twilight in front of Stephanie Meyer's niece.
awesome astronaut Wow! What's her reaction after you said it?
awesome astronaut not all heroes wear capes...
Why? Just because her aunt wrote the series?
awesome astronaut Nice!
awesome astronaut You are one brave individual.
As a writer and a teacher, I don't think Twilight is exactly a bad series. Sure, it's poorly written and the movie sucks, but it was made for teenagers and lots of things in that category are this bad or even worse. The problem was that, for some reason I cannot get, it was a hit, and sadly, lots of writers followed it, filling bookstores with similar crap. I hope someday someone write a really good and healthy romantic books for teenagers, so our younglings can get the quality they deserve.
Now please critic 50 Shades. That shit is damaging society and destroying all attempt to save victims from their abusing partners because it push them to believe that "he will change for you, he will discover love thanks to you and you'll be happy forever".
Best and realist comment! I so agree.
Fun fact Even s and m people hate 50 shades of grey it's just hated by everyone universily
Ya know Doug is one smart guy.
Bland characters with no personality that allows audiences to place themselves into them for wish-fulfillment reasons is why I suspect Sword Art Online became as huge as it did. If you were female, you got the bad-ass pretty boy that solves all your problems. If you're male, you got to kick ass & have a wife that does shit you hate for you (cooking).
melthor2ztt I mean, first season of SAO was okay. Not good, but I wouldn't say i hate it. But further... man, wtf. Fairyland? Deathgun? Hahahahahahahaha. Add retarded sniper that is terrified of guns and you get shitty production with retarded and bland characters that you can describe with one sentence each. Main character-child good at games. His girlfriend-well... I can't even say anything important, can cook or something. Sniper-terrified of guns. Main protagonist of first season-the bad one? Another person you don't really know nor you care. And list goes on.
I got told that she suppose to be blank until she becomes a vampire then she be a great character... she gets turned in the last two moives! It would make sense if it she was changed in the first or second one
It's actually oddly nostalgic hating Twilight now. There *are* technically worse things, yeah, but remembering how giant it was as a fad and everyone mocking it as a kid brings me back to the late 2000s.
I'm glad this franchise is dying down and finished.
Yeah. About that....
@@alijahaskew4644 Oh no... What demon spawn had been born? What could be worse than the CGI baby?!
@@robertcortez4956 A new book called Midnight Sun.
5 Things I hate mostly about the movie.
5. Love mess (or as you all call it Love Triangle). First off... Love Triangle? It only a love triangle if a girl love a guy who love another guy who love the girl. That a triangle. Honestly people think that, 'Oh those two guys love the girl. It a Love Triangle. But the main problem is A werewolf and a vampire love a human who both love an emo girl. And yet there is no other special girl.
4. Vampires? The vampire effects on here are nice and all. But what with the diamonds. It define the purpose of vampires. Another things is that the Vampire Council are living in the country that is mostly sunning. Isn't that like Superman lifting up an entire island of Kyponite? Another things is the werewolves have the same thin. instead of tuning into werewolves at the full moon. They only need to remove their clothes and transform into a giant wolf. That not a definition of a werewolf. Werewolves are human beings until the full moon and lose control. It like Stephen trying to change a vampires for fans of romance. In fact I don't remember any awful crap of vampires or Werewolves until Twilight saga. On a side note why is it call a Twilight Saga if she only do one book abut the crappy vampires romance?
3. The child. I'm not talking about how did they get a baby. But more like why does the baby grow up to be a four year old with in four months. It just creeping and ruin parenthood. I mean in a few more months the baby will look like an adult and is off to marriage. Another thing is how is the baby learning if it growing to fast? Does the baby brain also grow or did she have to learn something by one word.
2. It should've ended early. In the first movie Edward wanted to prevent her from becoming a vampire. What I don't understand is why not turn let your lover become a vampire. I mean imagine if Bella didn't turn into a vampire at all and became a sixty year old. Yeah... it that wrong. And if Edward let Bella turn than he wouldn't be the father. Yeah! He wouldn't be the father of the so call abomination he stated. Way ago dad!
1. The story! I love romance. Like Titanic, Letter to Juliet, etc. But there are some romances that trying to be loved that they forgot to even consider the facts. Twilight is one of them seeing as it ruined the vampire name. Vampires aren't suppose to feel love or anything. A Vampire is dead! IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A SPERM OR A BEATING HEART! Not only that but the fact that it made other monsters into a love stick comb. Like Zombies. What next Mummies? This love story turn a beloved monsters into a love beast. Granted there are monsters that can love but the monsters of the dead are dead. Stories like Vampire Dairies is something different. Granted I don't like it either, but it follow the rules of Vampires. Can't live in sunlight, mind control someone, even to the base of have to drink blood to live. The also made a few new rules and bring in new monsters like The Original Vampires, Hybrid, Hunters, etc. It even all those points that the reason why they are still ongoing. Vampire Dairies has better romance than this crap.
And that is why I hate this series.
Reading that comment was so fun. I hate Twilight as well, but the grammar made that funny.
Zhao Dragión A love ^ then?
WORST thing ever? Man, you haven't seen Breadwinners, have you?
-horrible, lazy world building
-romantization of toxic relationships
-characters have personality of a cardboard cutout
-pacing? What is pacing?
-plot actively avoids anything interesting happening on screen
- R E N E S M E
You forgot to mention the part at the tail end of the last book where we find out these "werewolves" aren't even werewolves but they're actually brain dead native american shapeshifters who originally could turn into any animal they wanted to but somehow completely forgot how to turn into anything but wolves (ffs really?). This thereby renders the entire imprinting thing totally pointless and by lore standards (because nowhere does it say these shapeshifters actually imprint), completely incorrect.
This bizarre and cheap turn of events during the last 20 pages of the books only happened because Meyer realized she forgot to write the "werewolves" a way out of being massacred. To ensure her bland as fuck cast got the "happy ending" they literally never deserved she just grabbed the first lore thing she found on google and dropped it in there and hoped we were all brain dead enough all swallow it while simultaneously giving a big middle finger to all the werewolf stuff she's been making up for the past two books and doing nothing to address the glaring inconsistacies that followed.
So really we can say knowing this that while she did repeatedly shove a giant dildo up the ass of vampire lore as we know it and then beat it into submission, at least she didn't destroy werewolves. Thanks Stephanie Meyer.
No. I hate Twilight because of sparkling vampires. I even achieved an internal compromise regarding the "werewolves" - hey, they are like giant german shepherds, I like dogs.
SPARKLING. FUCKING. "VAMPIRES"
"IM HORRIBLE, PLEASE DON"T LOOK AT ME"
Sparkle, sparkle, sparkle
Darkrayquaza47 NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! do it again :)
+The Encyclopedia of Pop Culture He did. But his sparkling was felt through a chilling shiver on our backs, every time he arrived on scene in his terrifying classy splendor. Our most hated and beloved villains have always instilled respect and glorious fear through the shining of their performance. :)
No. Anyone who seriously thinks that is a sillyhead.
HI MR. CRITIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DiamandaHagan Because that title belongs to 50 Shades Of Gray. Also I love your videos! :)
DiamandaHagan Ah, so you have your own channel now as well. Will that be the go-to place for your reviews from now on? (I really want to see your Left Behind 2 review :-D )

I love her Left Behind reviews!

AYYYYY JACKSFILMS
My sister was watching one of these movies and I might pass through the room to get something and EVERY time I passed through and got a glimpse of this movie, what’s his name was on screen without a shirt on (you know who I’m talking about), and all I thought was, “imagine the director constantly telling this guy to ditch his shirt in a scene.”
Come on... Twilight is shitty, but imagine what would happen if someone got inspired by this shitty story and wrote a fan fiction about it and then sell it as a book and then made a movie about it.... That would be horrible, beyond shitty, WAIT. THAT HAPPENED. 50 SHADES OF GREY.
I can see I'll be murdered for this, but I'm reading the Twilight saga currently and... the books aren't that bad. Don't get me wrong, the movies look dumb as shit, but the books are actually pretty good, they entertain me fine. They have flaws (Bella is constantly in danger, good god) but I can get through them and still feel like I haven't wasted any time. (I can't account for Eclipse as I am currently reading that one, and Breaking Dawn). Maybe I could call them guilty pleasures, or maybe it is because the books are regarded as so bad that my expectations were well exceeded.
Edit: Yeah, upon further inspection these seem to be my guilty pleasure. Or, the books at least. I'll see how closely the movies follow the books.
lucas tatlock I've seen scenes from the movie but never a full film, so that could be a factor.
Luigi Epic My pitchfork and torch have both been raised.
Polygon Man Oh, c'mon, I like Invader Zim. Don't kill a fellow fan.
Luigi Epic Yeah... I jumped from Lord Of The Rings to this... That downgrade, you can fell it from beginning. Never endured much, never want to try again. Burn it man.
Well, we must've read different books because there's around 300 pages saying how beautiful Edward is. In the first book, anyway. I wasn't going to torture myself into reading the others.
The best thing about these Twilight films are some of the songs. Like A Thousand Years, Decode, It Will Rain, to name a few. Those songs are fucking awesome!! :D
What's urked me the most is how, when Twilight was coming out, people were constantly comparing it to Harry Potter. Why??! They have NOTHING in common at all! Twilight is a dated, forgotten, shallow romance that doesn't understand the paranormal. Harry Potter is a timeless, memorable adventure that was a brilliant growing up/coming of age story; one that many kids, myself included, grew up with alongside the characters.
I think the imprinting is an excuse for pedophilia. And that excuse comes along with this "write off", "It's Twilight, you don't understand." Of course I don't because your justifying pedophilia. I even got into a debate when my roommate's wife said that two characters from Lost Girl, both concenting adults, with a 1500 year age difference feels more pedophilia like than a 18 year old and a 6 month old child; and she wrote off my points because she's an idiot trying to be a genius because her points are always the right points. But the fact of the matter is Jacob should have been brought up on charges for pedophilia.
Meyer misused the term to begin with. You know the whole idea that when certain animals hatch from an egg they identify the first thing they see as their mother? That's called imprinting.
Critic, you forgot the worst part!
“The love story.”
Also, excuse me while I throw up.
What's the difference between yogurt and Edward?
After 100 years, at least yogurt can get a personality
is it bad to look back when I was in elementary school, how all the kids either wanted to be famous or a sports star while I just wanted to be a doctor so I could find the cure to autism because I have autism
The Last Airbender Movie is the worst thing ever.
I enjoyed the first book well enough... they got less believable in the sequels, though. And, does it say more that I enjoyed the side characters of Alice and Rosalie instead of the three leads?
Edward: I’m a cold blooded killer that watches you sleep and wants to eat you.
Bella: *heavy breathing*
Bella: *I WANT YOU*
This editorial was made over 8 years ago, and Doug was right. Everyone I know that loved the series back when it was popular kind of just laugh and say “Oh, yeah. Twilight was dumb, I remember when I liked it when I was young but now I’ve grown up.” Glad we’ve all moved on from this crap.
Could you review Fantastic 4 2015? It needs a Nostalgia Critic review.
Richard Warner It's way too boring to make fun of. I don't think even he can get any material off that movie.
+Richard Warner I think maybe an Old vs New of the Fantastic 4 movies would be great. We haven't gotten one of those in a long time.
God knows I'd rather watch the old one.
***** Old Vs New is built on comparing 2 outstanding versions of a franchise to figure out which is superior. Do that with a property that nobody likes, and you lose something.
Same here. Fox really gone off the deep end with this movie. If only the stuck with the original
Richard Warner And where is nostalgia here?
Little known fact: Twilight started life as a Buffy fanfic.
Seriously? Wow. That's like, an insult to Buffy.
NeodymiumAecium5 Actually, it started as a dream where the author met a hot sparkly vampire in a field of flowers. I kid you not. I remember reading that on her website!
NeodymiumAecium5 50 shades of gray started as a twilight fanfic which started as a buffy fanfic. so we have to burn copys of buffy instead of twilight?
Ticci Toby No. Buffy is one of the best shows ever made, it doesn't deserve that!
*****
ok....can we atleast burn the games. they are awfull
Hey man, I really like these "editorials". Keep them up! you have very interesting insights which I highly enjoy. I try to recommend these kind of videos... they are very refreshing and thought provoking. Congrats!
This channel is the best on CZcams. You guys care about your work,and i love people who love what they do. You guys are awesome
Under 301 club... Wait a second
There is a trend about hating things the last "internet" years. someone create a trend, millions follow. Those haters think they are smart and cool but most of them can't even boil water. they just follow trends.so Does this movie franchise suck? yes, big time. but it doesn't deserve the hatred.
Are you serious? He explained why this deserves 100% hatred
And I absolutely agree with him
It's just a bad movie, just like bad pop music. Some people like it, why don't you hate them? They made it what it is.
PAUL BLART: MALL COP 2 got 5% at RT. It's a bad movie - no one cares and no one will.
So the "worst thing ever"is what we choose to be, what is important enough to affect us.
LeMeBucallion Paul blart mall cop was ten times a better movie than twilight. Twilight still deserves to be hated. Its definitely in the list of most hated movies
Fellinux Amen. Glad you have common sense unlike that guy
Let's all have a moment of silence for that poor bed. 😞
Imprinting is explained in the books as making it so you are their protecter, it can be non-sexual.
I got bored and watched the "Twilight" movies once for shits and giggles just to see what the big fuss was about. In all honesty... I still didn't get the appeal (outside of the third film which was actually surprisingly watchable, the rest are pretty bad), but I also don't think the ludicrous hatred was necessarily warranted. It's just silly, bland entertainment for teenage girls. Whatever. If they like it, good for them. There's plenty of stupid movies and guilty-pleasures that I like that have dumb plot-lines or characters that aren't necessarily likable, and I know I liked a LOT of stupid shit when I was a teenager, so who am I to judge? People on the whole seem more annoyed by the popularity of the works than the works themselves. There are a lot of things out there that are far worse. "Twilight" is bad, sure... but it's by no means the *worst* thing ever.
Heh, let's be honest, Twilight is smut the whole way through. My term for it is "emotional porn".
"It does seem kind of weird to be watching a kid grow up and thinking, 'Yeah. I'm gonna bang that someday'".
My exact thoughts on the first act of Tuck Everlasting.
I’m still waiting for him to actual videos for each movie. It would take an entire month and they would be hilarious
It will be perfect for a Nostalgiaween.
MORBIUS IS BETTER THAN TWILIGHT
0:36-0:40 Thats the answer. End Video. lol
I just love that your link to your other Twilight Video is a video of you with a crimson red face, arms flailing around while your screaming in uncontrollable anger.
It's the book used to hide Dexter's lab. It works because no one would touch it
To me, the only thing more annoying than Twilight as a whole is the inordinate amount of hate it gets. Like, it's bad, we know. Don't let that stain your opinion about people you don't personally know. C'mon.
The only people from which the hate against Twilight is justified are fans of the vampire genre. Everyone else has obviously never seen a bad movie before because the Twilight films weren't THAT bad. They weren't great but there are so many worse films out there.
The main problem with twilight is that it made it nearly impossible to find good new vampire books since almost everyone that came out after twilight tried to copy it
It's 2022, and nobody's talking about Twilight anymore. It came, did its thing, then left. We can rest easy.
I'd rather wait for Robert Pattinson as the Batman than watching him as Edward the horny vampire
I feel like twilight was bad but at the time when we were all middle schoolers/high schoolers we enjoyed it because we had the same maturity as the characters did. It’s more of a nostalgic thing for me now, I don’t take it seriously as I did in middle school and it’s more of a funny movie to watch
Love the fact they end the series with a literal impossibility with Alice having some kind of "and they lived happily ever after" when they spend all of the movies and the one it was in saying it was impossible for her to see werewolves or weird vampire babies.
Like we wouldn't need the movies at all if she discovered that plot hole earlier
People say Jacob is better than Edward.But he was no better.Manipulative,he threatened to kill himself if she didn't accept him
EDWARD HAD NO RIGHT TO SPARKLE! HE ISNT FABULOUS ENOUGH LIKE METTATON! NOBODY CAN BE FABULOUS AS MTT!!!
Alternate thought to the whole "imprinting" thing: Meyers' Mormon heritage. In the more fundamental sects who still practice polygamy it is common for a man to "claim" a newborn girl for himself to wed when she is "of age" (like 14 at the oldest). That's why the government shuts these sects down.
I saw this movie once, when it first came to DVD. It took me two days to finish it. But it's not the worst thing I've ever seen because I've also seen Dune and Fart: The Movie. So at least Twilight has that going for it.
My girlfriend loves twilight and every time she mentions it I just sit there in silence thinking " this will be the one thing I don't like about you , everything else great, but this...no."
