Some ways in which Twilight doesn't make sense

posted by hpotterforever7

Ok, some of this is opinion, some is fact, so don't critisize it because it is my opinion. And don't be rude in the comments section!

1. If the Cullens are "vampire's" that don't burn in the sun, don't drink blood, young, rich, immortal and beautiful, then why are they in Forks, Washington!? In HIGH SCHOOL!?

2. You say this story is about a Vampire, Werewolf and Human. I won't disagree with the human part, but the Cullens are NOT vampires. They don't drink blood, they don't die from a stake to the heart, they don't burn in the sun, and they don't have fangs. Jacob isn't a werewolf. He doesn't change into a wolf (more like a HUGE "bear-like" animal), and he doesn't do it on the full moon.

3. If Edward goes crazy over Bella's blood, then what happens when she's got her...monthly visit... I know, bad thought, but it's true!

4. Bella's idea of romance. Let's say that there is this creepy kid at school. Barely anyone knows anything about him, and he looked like he REALLY needed to pee the day you sat next to him. And one day, he breaks into your house, and sits in your room for hours at night to watch you sleep 'cus he can't and he finds you sleeping it....."facinating"..... He's a stalker! But no, Bella thinks it's romantic!?

5. Who is the bad guy? I don't think Victoria or James counts because the story continues after them. And the Volturi? They are hardly a threat. They fight a war by........talking.......fun...

dracofan001 lol 4. "he looked like he REALLY needed to pee" pffffffffft haha XD

bri-marie 1)Why not? They obviously don't want to stay cooped up in the house the whole time. The fact that they look 17/18 kind of limits them as far as jobs go. They obviously enjoy high school. And, as stated in the book, Forks is very dreary, which keeps them out of the sun. 2) There are lots of vampires that don't burn in the sun (Dracula, AAR's vampires), not all vampires have fangs (Darren Shan, Dracula), not all vampires die from a stake in the heart (Vampire Academy, House of Night, AAR, Anne Rice's vampires). And I'm not even getting into the cultural vampires. These are just literary ones. [b]There is not set rule for what vampires can/cannot do and no set trait that they have.[/b] Also, Twilight vampires [i]do[/i] drink blood. The Cullens and the Denali Coven don't drink [i]human[/i] blood. As they stated [i]in the book[/i] that Jacob wasn't a werewolf, I'm not entirely sure what you're argument "Jacob isn't a werewolf" is supposed to be about. 3)Meyer as also explained this. It's dead blood (which is true). It doesn't have the same... potency (I suppose that's a good word) as regular blood. 4)Bella's idea of romance isn't my idea of romance. However, my idea of romance isn't your idea of romance. And your idea of romance isn't your aunt's idea of romance. Just because you don't agree with it, doesn't mean it doesn't make sense. 5) Not all books series have to have a singular bad guy. In book one, James was the bad guy. In book three, Victoria was the bad guy. In book four, the Volturi (who tried to attack the Cullens and were coming to Forks to kill them all), were the bad guys. The only reason it didn't turn into a battle was because the Volturi don't like even numbers (pretty common for bad guys), and Bella was able to use her shield to stop Alec from blinding everyone.

cassie-1-2-3 I know you said no criticism, but that's an unrealistic request, so sorry. 1. I recall blood being the only thing they consume. They live in Forks because they want to be around people and they go to high school so they can more easily blend in, and stay in one place for a longer time. 2.[u]They do drink blood[/u]. Not all vampires are the same. Even Dracula didn't burn in the sun or have fangs. It is true that Jacob and company are not werewolves, and it was mentioned in the books. They later figure out that they are actually shapeshifters, which are not controlled by full moons. I'm feeling like you conveniently forgot to read the books or watch the movies. 3. That's a common question, but i don't see why. What's the huge difference between blood being in your pants as opposed to blood being under your skin? Even in your pants, there are more layers covering it up than the blood in your exposed skin. 4. People are different, that's all. 5. I don't like to say that there are any bad guys besides Victoria and Laurent. The Volturi are intimidating because of the power they hold, but they're not villains. I say there are bad occurrences that threaten Bella. "Good" and "Evil" don't have to be actual characters. From what I've observed, the biggest struggles people encounter have little to do with other people as individuals. The vampiric instincts is the evil. Resistance is the good. The vampires that resist are the ones who can be trusted, and the ones who don't, can't. It's different in Breaking Dawn, though. In BD, some human killing vampires are on the good side because the struggle changes. The evil is now interpretation (which in real life almost always causes huge problems). All being willing to assist in clearing it up are the good guys. All those not willing or those who misinterpret are the bad guys. No character actually does anything evil, but they represent evil aspects of life. -Resisting temptation is good. Giving in is evil. -Intolerence and Passing judgement without knowing all the facts is evil. Knowledge and understanding is good.

TheBreeze Heh heh, I laughed at some of this.
