I don't like how they call them "vegetarian." They are still drinking blood, are they not? They are not draining the energy from vegetables are they? If they are still harming animals, even if they are not humans, that is not vegetarian by any definition I know. |

Except they're not. If they were vegetarian they would be feeding off vegetables, like Nectaris pointed out. I will give them kudos for chosing not to feed on humans though. I haven't read the books, but is it ever mentioned what they do with the animal they have drained? Do they just leave it in the forrest for wild animals to scavenge or what? The sparkling thing is something I will never be able to wrap my head around. Everything else could be accepted with a |

I actually find that "not feeding in humans" is a trait that's getting kind of old. I won't critizice Twilight for it as it not something about the book that irks me. It is, after all, a matter more of preferences and not really something technical. But I do long for a more violent sort of vampire protagonist. It is easy to "love" a goody old shoes that tries against odds to be noble, but much more challenging when said character is a dangerous predator and likes what he is with no remorse. |

When Bella hunted for the first time she just threw away the body, so I guess they leave them be. The stupidest thing? Meyer tried to explain it as biological thing; something to do with cells being harder then your normal cells. No it didn't make any sense. Especially when you have werewolves that are just being hand waved as "magical". Can't see why she didn't do the same thing for her vampires.

Not liking. Haven't read, saw a very little of a film(was bored), saw jokes about overly attached fans. If it was something of a new race with gemophilia - maybe it would be something... more acceptible.
But not sparkly vampires, please =( |

I honestly don't care if her vampires sparkle. It doesn't matter. It's her book, she could have made them glow in the dark for all I care. Even if her explanation didn't make biological sense, I thought the concept itself was creative. I tend to like a unique idea every once in a while.
Not that I'm a fan of her books, but I don't think they're the most deplorable things out there. |

Imprinting scares me. It's like being force fed a love potion that will make you love one random person. Who is somehow your soul mate.
I don't believe in soul mates. I have math to back me up. The fact that Renesmee can exist squicks me. This post has been edited by ArdereV on Nov 25 2012, 10:39 AM |
