what is or opinion about the twilight saga (it can be the book or the movie)?

For all thoese who love twilight or hate it i really don't mind any one, because i just want to see ppls opinion about it. in case you are wondering im not a TOTAL fan of the twilight saga, but not obessed bout it, but its not terrible its actually quite good (well to me) so im kind of in the middle :)

for thoses who hate it please tell me why you do

for those who are weirdly obsessed with it please tell me why you are

my opinion is i dont really care im not really a big fan of it like I've said before , but i think the book was well written, but the movies were kinda off, (as usual, leave it up to hollywood to do that for you)

:D

though in the books they could use some improvements but oh well, im not Stephine Meyers

so feel free to say ANYTHING you want about it.

Update:

sorry i meant what is your opinion

    I like both the books and the movies. The books are better of course (they always are) but the movies were good too. i don't think they were well made movies and the books could have some minor changes (for instance I never want to hear the word "chagrin" again as long as I live!).

    I do hate the screaming fangirls though. Maybe it's because I'm not 12 years old, but I think it's ridiculous to scream during the movie when a guy comes onscreen. Sure, he may be hot, but really, what's the point in being obnoxious?

    Anyway, I like both, to the point where I went to a midnight screening and bought the Bree Tanner book the day it came out even though it had been online already. But i am not one of those obnoxious fans that wears their Team Jacob shirt everywhere they go. After all, they are just books and movies, nothing to get all worked up about :)

    the movies were waaaaay too corny for me. the first movie was ok, i guess. but then new moon absolutely sucked. Edward is absolutely dead-looking (not just because he's a vampire), so i didn't really get the whole edward fandom thing. though, the third was kinda ok, edward actually has feelings!

    the book... well... it could be better. i tried reading the first three books, but i lost interest past the first few chapters. there a few grammatical errors and some sentences just don't connect.

    the twilight books lowered the standard of novels that should and shouldn't be published.

    I never read the books. [I already have too much to read for school. Why would I read for fun?]

    But I have saw all the movies thus far. I was less than impressed with Eclipse for some reason. Maybe I was just in a pissy mood.

    Anyway, I'm like you. I am straddling the fence on it. I'm not INSANELY obsessed. I'm not a hater. I could take it or leave it.

    One thing that I am obsessed with about it is TAYLOR LAUTNER. [Notice I didn't say Jacob Black... I'm just obsessed with Taylor Lautner no matter what movie he is in!]

    I dont understand why there is so much hate about it. People get so angry over it. it never claimed to be an action film with bloody gory scenes, its just a love story. Originally i loved it, but after awhile i dissected it, and saw some flaws, and dont like it as much. I enjoy reading the books when i feel like curling up on the lounge and reading something romantic.

    I love them both... the movie and the book as well... ive never seen such a good vampire love story ever in my life.... kirsten stewart n robert pattison are perfect for these characters, its a soft romantic movie..perfect choice for those who donot like watching violent n action thrillers.... :)

    and the book is also a good attention getter.... !

    trash. trash. trash. I actually used to not mind the books...but then they made the movies and all these creepy obsessed fan girls started crawling out from the sewers. I mean seriously, wtf!? why would anyone want to degrade themselves so much by swooning/screaming/crying over some fictional pussy *** sparkly vampire? and what's with the people who are practically stalking Robert Pattinson? he is an ACTOR edward is a CHARACTER! get over it people, move on already!

    that aside, taylor is way hotter than rob. it's fact my sparkly vampire obsessed friends.

    Those books/movies turned perfectly good monsters into teenie bopper heart throbs. So disappointing.

    i don't hate it, i just think it's a bit over-rated... my sister and sister in law like the books, both of them hated the first movie (they both said it was horrible) but i guess they like the other movies... i personally have no intention of seeing any of them

    Don't really like it.

    It's really weird.

    No offense :p
