Finally caught Twilight; the movie.

I can't believe how incredibly STUPID, Twilight is. What a croc. How can so many people be infatuated with a concept that is in no way original nor even remotely interesting? It's ridiculously STUPID! The movie was so fucking annoying I wanted to bite bloody Bella (Kristen Stewart) myself and get it over and done with. And don't get me started with Edward bloody-predictably-emotional Cullen (Robert Pattison) and how un-vampirish he was. He's got no presence. No looks, no value-added anything. Teens these days! How can you people go nuts about how cute he is?? Have you guys never set eyes upon George Clooney or even pretty boy Zac Effron?? Am I the only sane person left in this world with decent taste in movie-star gorgeous men???? I like Keanu Reeves, Denzel Washington and Will Smith too, btw. Oh and Pitt. And Depp. Heh.

And please. Their love is really so irrevocably unrealistic, also shallow and corrupted that I laughed my ass off everytime a supposedly intimate scene comes on. She is the stupidest STUPID character ever created and so completely one-dimensional, that she bores the shit, vomit and feaces out of even the dullest of sloths hanging off a tree branch! Holy cow, pigs and rhinos; I simply cannot put into words how legitimately pissed I am with this movie... that got so many people swept away and infected by its decadent blandness.

The book itself is poorly written, incomparable to even Russel Lee's ghost stories (uh yeah, damn scary) but is admittedly, still a charming enough read! I only hafta scan through the first and last lines on every page and quite bluntly put, even a 2 year-old can figure out what happened in between. Meyer has a style that is simple and clean; something that i find commendable. She's not into description (*hallelujah* - screams her devout Christian readers). See, if she does go into detail with trivialities - she'd be wasting resources, printing those additional words which everybody would just skip, knowing how unbearably cliched & repetitive her writing is. Still, i can understand why her books sell - they provide such an effortless escape! You can totally shut your eyes and read it. Don't need to use even the slightest bit of brain power - good for when you're really tired and bitched-out. It's easy, fun and FAST. Like a professional call-girl (i think?)

I just really hate the movie!!! UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY LOATHE THAT BLOODY MOVIE - the same way Bella supposedly describes her love for Edward. Eww. You pathetic excuse of a heroine. In case you're wondering, I did watch the movie to the end and it's only because I want to confirm and justify my utter dissatisfaction and disgust with TWILIGHT. Don't say that I did not give the movie a chance to change my mind. I found nothing that might possibly salvage whatever minute dignity the plot has.

Okay, maybe, the whole charm of this entire series lies in how alarmingly imbecilic it all is. I, for one, found pleasure in criticizing this. Hehe. Saje eh, nak cari pasal.
