Why 'Twilight: New Moon' is so captivating?

We knew it: it all has to do with the mystery of "Desire" and love-hunger (or the prohibitions we put on it).
What do you think?


Lynn Schofield Clark, associate professor of mass
communication and journalism at the University of
Denver, explains how and why and defends the fans.

WOW, I congratulate this woman and her 1990s hair on trying to find meaning on a book and movie series that is devoid of any kind of meaning. It's a money making machine, period.
If the characters had EVER been described as human or flawed this would've never gotten so big.

How about the UNderworld Series ?I loved all of them !!!

@Thegoldenlock I really love twilight but you know I've thought this too and it is...but when you're first reading them you can't really see it, its all to perfect.

[kikikodpf]

Totally true!
But I'll still be drawn to stalkers.... XD

Maybe it's because of that Rob Thomas look alike?

I want to know why Edward and Jacob are fighting over this girl who is clearly using them both, she has sexually desires for them, but we all know she going to stay with Edward, if I was the writer of this story I would have Jacob be like "F**k this I got four guys waiting for me at home. I dont need this emo chick who cant make up her mind. Coming Eddy?" they edward leaves her and she alone again.

I really liked Twilight at first but as I read the books, and saw the released movies, I realised that is all too cliché. It´s all about their love that´s really boring and cheesy. And New Moon, everything Edwards said was Cliché! God!
And both Bella and Edward are portraited as Mary-sue/gary-stue and their only weakness brings them closer together... I mean she has like four guys after her! Everybody loves her and the cullens! it doesn´t work that way.

it is these types of movies that is dumping us as a society, I watched half of the first one and was disgusted at how pathetic it was and an absolute mockery to vampire movies.look at the character of people that watch this crap, they have no gauge on what is a GOOD movie what so ever

[ragerancher]

What is it with Americans and pronouncing phenomenon in the same way as the mahna mahna song by the muppets? (search it here to see what i mean)

[evrynamewasused]

the books are better i think. the movie new moon was better than twilight, but still doesnt compare to the books because they leave stuff out or add to it. :/

[LollyBabe]

Both the books and movies suck, live with it.

AHAHAHA, it is unbelievable how people can spew tremendous amounts of crap over such an obvious piece of shit. This world is going straight to hell.
