    BTW Katie, TOUCHE!!!

    I don't know what to say. 'harry potterr has no plot, no character development' I will just quote the great stephen king here.

    "Harry Potter is about confronting fears, finding inner strength and doing what is right in the face of adversity. Twilight is about how important it is to have a boyfriend.”

    Enough said!

    Also what kindof character development does Twilight have?

    Update: My god you people are stupid. Obviously this was a troll question, I probably asked it to try to see how gullible you lot were, and guess what you're all a bunch of gullible ---- well you know ;) I'm literally one of the biggest Harry Potter fans ever, the question was made to make fun of the fact that people try to compare Twilight with Harry Potter simply because they were popular ( thank god Twilight reached the end of its height of popularity or so it seems). For those who knew it was a troll question, kudos, but I mean, not one person realized it because had anyone actually thought this they would have posted a joke in response instead of getting all aggravated and writing defenses and summaries. I mean seriously people, I wrote " i mean like twilight is a sweet love story between a girl, a dog, and a dead guy". Does that sound like something a Twilight fan would say? NO NO NO. I don't like Twilight at all, this question was completely making fun of the series and ultimately of people who compare Twilight and Harry Potter, but just for the record I've read the Twilight series too, so I do know what I'm talking about. I would say sorry for the anti-twilightness, but thank goodness everyone who answered this question is a Harry Potter fan.

    Also, What's the Time: Although you're kind of a jerk with your whole " Too lazy too read a summary" speech, when by god I've read the series a thousand times, I do appreciate the video link you left in your answer! I saw Harry Potter in 99 seconds years ago and it's just brilliant :D

    is this a troll? god, this better be a troll, but if it's not well...

    1 "twilight is a sweet love story between a girl, a dog, and a dead guy" yes, dead people and dogs falling in love with a girl is SO romantic -_- once again, troll.

    2 "in Harrry poter there all weird magic things that fly around on enchanted twigs" pff...you can't fly around on TWIGS! they fly around on broom sticks! and anyways, if harry potter is barely about quidditch and flying on broomsticks. go google a summary for harry potter and you'll see what it's really about.

    3 "also, bella is so easy to compare to, unlike harry" that is because bella is lifeless. she is like a dead body waiting to be possessed by a bunch of teenage girls. harry potter actually has characteristics.

    4 "harry potterr has no plot, no character development, nothing" bella has NO character development. do we know much about bella's past, or her personality? and harry potter has no plot? of course not to you because i'm fairly sure you haven't even looked at a summary of the book series.

    also *why *you *just *potter *is *so *potter *they're *how's *like *don't get it *potter *riding

    Source(s): and if you're too lazy to read the summary of the series (although i must admit they are VERY long...) here is a 99 second summary of harry potter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y57sYHIDP_Y&feature...

    Twilight isn't for everybody, for instance some people don't want to see a 74 year old pedo date a 16 year old girl with a facial expression problem, where as in harry potter there is all action and no sappy love story. Granted some may like to watch two beautiful people kiss but I am not one. I want to see some death scenes. By the way I have watched all of the Twilights so I can access this based on a full opinion.

    Excuse me for my rudeness, but I literally just laughed out loud when I read this. Please, reread your questions before you post them. (if you're serious. If you aren't, stop joking, because it's mainly annoying)

    Basically Twilight is the story of a girl trying to decide which guy she wants. SPOILER she picks the vampire.

    Harry Potter is an amazing story filled with adventure, mystery, love, and magic.

    Harry Potter is "weird", you say? There's a girl in love with a dead guy and a dog. Tell me how that isn't weird.

    Ahh, I see, trying provoke an argument I see.

    Personally, I don't like either movie/book series.

    Why?

    It's just not my genre. People like Harry Potter because they like the genre of movie/book, and people like Twilight because they like that genre of movie/book. You can't say someone's opinion is wrong. You can have your own opinion on someone else's opinion, however. And my opinion of your opinion? You're ******* retarded.
