      Not that I would but in the entirely hypothetical scenario where the world wasn’t shit and I wanted a kid who would grow into a person if someone wanted to date my kid and they were older (or if they wanted mine and theirs to date) I would make their death look like an accident (I know multiple ways not that I’m planning anything but just in case I meat someone truly unworthy of life like those two guys

      ​@@avrie6668 I feel like making it look like an accident kinda takes away the point of it because then someone else will come and imprint on them and you're going to have to make it look like another accident and then another one and so on and so forth, where if you just make it look like you kill people who try and imprint on your children then they would probably not imprint on children and at the very least your children would no longer be getting imprinted on.

      I suppose the real demarcation between RicknMorty and Galaxy of Terror is the presence of blatant irony. So all it takes to provide Charlie some zen calm is to provide him 4th wall-breaking awareness that he has materialized into Sealab 2021 for adolescents in Bill Gate's backyard.
      They should split the difference and script the Charlie POV like a Sucker Punch take on Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness tropes, showcasing Charlie's secret fantasies of defying the original script by going full on Bruce Campbell to solve all his annoyances. Boomsticks, diesel punk prosthetic chainsaws, and Rob Zombie toasting the musical interludes with excerpts from the necronomicon. Who's up for crowd funding? 🤪

      Or that he was a doctor in his early 20s ("The most common route to becoming a physician involves completing a bachelor's degree, followed by medical school, and then 3 years or more in a residency program for a medical specialty. At the very least, the entire process can take 11 years, putting the average age for a beginning doctor at 29 or 30.")
      Or that Edward was 100+- yrs old, is hot for Bella but wants to wait until hes married to have sex but hasnt been married over the past 100 yrs. Or hes okay with sex outside of marriage except for Bella for some reason.

      Well his physical age was 23, but it was never said in the movies and I really doubt that they would go out and say Carlisle was 23. When I looked at him in the first movie I thought he looked really young, but like in his 30s. They would never go around and say he's 23. Especially when in the I think second movie Edward literally is like. "And Carlisle starts to look to young for the age he should be" which, at least for me, is a big clue that they never said, well, yeah he's 23 and has like 5 adoptive children and a wife

    • @namename9998
      @namename9998 ปีที่แล้ว +100

      Carlisles age was an easy fix. Instead of saying everyone was adopted they could have said that Carlisle came from a big family and sometimes his brothers and sisters live with him. Maybe his brothers and sisters were adopted instead of Carlisle being the one who adopted them.

      @@raveng8217 Okay, bit of a rant here, but here we go.
      I've literally seen other authors do this when they write love triangles. There will be two love interests, one of them being a genuinely kind and decent person, and the other one being downright terrible if not straight-up abusive to the protagonist.
      The former can logically be deemed the "better option," but because the author wants the protagonist to be with the bad boy, they resort to character assassination for the other boy just to make him seem worse. All to make the protagonist seem justified in being with someone who is already pretty abhorrent.
      I once saw this trope being done for a book that involved a protagonist willfully cheating on her husband, a man who actually loved and cared for her, with a man who had kidnapped, manipulated and abused her. But to make it seem okay, the author made the husband turn into a horrible person so that mister kidnapper here could kill him off, and protagonist could be with the "alpha male bad boy" just as the author intended.
      This is a trope that actually kind of infuriates me, because I can just tell why authors do this. It becomes a matter of a protagonist falling for the bad boy not because they have a well-informed reason to, but because the story itself wants them to.

    • @katkat7828

      Edward was never lesser of the two evils. Jacob was a literal teenager with self control hindered by becoming a wolf and has no agency with the imprinting thing. Even then he's much better than Edward. Edward is a 100 something year old obsessive, manipulative stalker who is only interested in Bella because he cannot hear her thoughts and is able to project his demented idea of a perfect woman onto her. He was always the best choice and continued to be.

      But to be fair, I blame that on the author, not the character. Because that felt extremely out of character for Charlie, to me.

    Funny story, I was in jail in 2008 for 60 days due to retail theft to support my addiction. And had my parents send me 2 of these books in the mail to read. I asked for some vampire books because I was into Anne Rice at the time. This is what they sent. Dude, after reading them, and talking them up as a 18 year old, I had half the fuckin jail block talking about Bella and Edward. As these "bad ass vampires and werewolves" hahah. Sold them for 5 honeybuns (typical currency in jail) to a guy as I was getting out the next day. I like to think the fandom never ended within the jail block and to this day, 15 years later, people are still passing my Twilight books around hahah. Nowadays, I wonder how I wasn't bullied over it. But, probably because I was the youngest in the block and most the old timers took to youngins.

He was a soldier from the lost side, ok, it means if he would not lost his human life he would lost it anyway, in a sence, his old lifestyle. Like, you don't mind watching german movies from 70s-90s knowing that majority of actors come from nazi families IN REALITY. And here we're talking only about a fiction.

Twilight was never a romance for me, it was straight horror. I never understood how people fell for these toxic characters, I thought that was the point! I read the whole series before the movie even came out and I still feel nostalgic for the series.
    Team Mike all the way. Poor dude never stood a chance.

    Fun fact, while it's true that Fifty Shades of Grey was based off of Twilight it actually goes back way further than that, all the way to 9/11. So in 2001 A guy named Gerard Way was on a ferry and watched the twin towers fall, he was so torn up and traumatised about it he started writing out his feelings and it eventually led to him and his brother starting the band My Chemical Romance. The band was pretty popular amongst teens and had lots of fan fiction written about them, one day Stephanie Meyers decided to get in on the action and write some vampire au fan fiction and eventually changed it a little and published it as the Twilight series. Then along came E.L. James who wrote some more fan fiction (this time it was an office au based on Twilight) and it became the horrible representation of BDSM relationships formally known as Fifty Shades of Grey. So yeah, the twin towers falling caused Fifty Shades of Grey to be created

      So it's explained better in the book!
      Jasper's power is not only to influence other people's emotions, but he also can feel the emotions of people around him. So in the scene when he's freaking out, he's surrounded in a room of vampires that are all thirsting after Bella's finger cut (reminder that canonically Bella has some weird thing where her blood is super tasty because of course she does). Now individually they all can control their thirst, but Jasper is feeling the thirst of seven vampires at once.
      Normally at school, there's so many human kids and the Cullens go to school fed on animal blood so he doesn't struggle with thirst there.
      Hope that helps

      White people are generally incapable of actual creativity. When you're entire culture is built on stealing from others, it becomes the norm. Media like this should be vilified from it's very start due to the fact that it's disingenuous. Also, it's extremely sad that twilight is the vector through which many young women seem to initially consider their sexuality because it's an ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE example of how relationships should be. It's basically an entire series about how emotionally and otherwise abusive relationships are somehow "Deep" when in reality they're the opposite. Female sexuality should be about EMPOWERMENT and PERSONAL CHOICE, not about putting up with some abusive loser because he's "mysterious" or "damaged". Then let him go deal with his damage and he can date you when he's learned how to treat women with decency and respect. Mormons shouldn't be allowed to write books. Or exist at all.

    I remember during the start of the Twilight Saga craze during 2008. It cost around Php500.00 in 2008 here in the Philippines (around $50 now in today's value). I was a broke high school student then, but I really wanted to own that book. So I said to my mother that we had to buy a scientific calculator for school. When I came back home, she saw that I had bought the book Twilight, and she scolded me 😂
    Funniest story I heard though is about this classmate of mine who bought Twilight because he thought it was for a book report. We had to read like a book every two weeks at the time, and he saw everyone reading it in class. He read the book in 2 days and had a book report ready because he bought it so late. The face he had when he saw everyone was reading it for the fun of it was priceless.

    I think it’s funny you used an Inuyasha connection because I do think Twilight is, like, backwards isekai. Instead of being dumped, often alone, into a magical world, Bella is instead getting to be the special person in the comfort of her normal world with magical things choosing to bring her into it because she’s extra special. It’s like isekai with more steps 😂

"I'm a regular girl from modern-day Japan who's been transported to another world/another time/an alternate fantasy version of historical Japan and I have multiple hot guys who want to protect me (and they also usually fight over my romantic attention)" was also a staple of the genre.

    i also think a good ol' peer pressure, boy craziness, and trends played a role in twilight's popularity. i remember being in middle school and everyone fighting over team edward or jacob. and EVERYONE was reading the books, including the teachers. i finally gave in one day because i wanted to be in the loop and be "cool" so i read up to chapter 17 in the first book, gave up, and went back to reading warrior cat books 💀 it was just not for me at the time. i never watched the movie until i became an adult and have only watched the first twilight movie, not the other ones. but i love seeing people review it it really is a great piece of human history.

    I read Twilight when I was 10 because my best friend's mom worked at a library and had an ARC. We were *obsessed* and had contests to see who could reread it more once it actually came out and we could each have our own copy. By the time the movie came out, I was 13/14 and my friends and I liked to pretend that Breaking Dawn never existed because we hated it so much. I went to the midnight showings (remember when those were a thing??) of all the movies and remember more about the audience's reactions to the movie than I do my own. One dude at New Moon wolf whistled when Jacob first appeared without his shirt and then yelled "put it back on!" when Edward appeared without his shirt; the whole theater was cackling at this guy's heckling. I was Team book!Edward and Team movie!Jacob for a long time, but now I'm more Team best-bro-Seth or Team Alice.

    Idk if this was omitted for comedy reasons or if it doesn't come across as well in the movies (i only read the books), but the reason Edward seems to enjoy getting cucked is cuz he doesn't want Bella to become a vampire. He was actually hoping that she would stay human long enough to outgrow him (bc he is pertually 17-brained). So he loves her and wants to be with her, but also wants her to be with Jacob, bc if she dated Jacob she would stay human.
