No way, there is way too much talking and not enough explosions.
Anyway, us guys have got our own version of chick flicks already like Twilight and Pretty Woman, its called Black Hawk Down, its a chick flick but for dudes.

Honestly? It's the dress and the makeup that completely kills it. Any other day of the week that woman would be attractive, but the waistline of that dress makes her look pregnant and the makeup makes her look sickly and tired. It's a great testament to the aesthetic failures of this series.The Eggplant said:
I got the impression that she was supposed to be more cute than hot. You should see her outside of her Alice costume. Watch the Sobe commercials, then see what you think. Actually, for these creatures that are supposed to be super-hot, the actors look way better than the characters. Especially Rosalle, who's supposed to be just shy of a greek goddess. Nikki Reed is very beautiful, but in character, it looks like she's wearing a bad Marylin Monroe costume. Alice is the only one that fit well.PurpleSky said:
Yes I'm a fan of the books. Not so much the movies though. It seems like it was less about casting someone that could play the part well, and more who would make tween girls scream the loudest.
And I really want someone to make a Twilight game, just so Zero Punctuation can review it. LOL! I know the game would suck, but I always laugh so hard at his reviews, I'm sure I'd die laughing at that one. (Ah, the puns just write themselves.

Meh, the reactions were pretty funny.
have you seen Twilight? You've gotta see Twilight! - random guy. I chuckled merrily

It's sad he's dead. I want more Gemmell.LadyRhian said:
I understand it's meant to be a joke (and that I come off as an ardent pro-equality-to-the-extreme-that-no-one-can-say-anything-that-might-offend-me sort of person) and I'm not really offended, I just find this particular image of men as slobbering sex-crazed idiots particularly annoying. Largely because a lot of girls (and guys too, but guys don't harass me) make invalid presumptions about me on the basis of this moronic stereotype to the degree that one who wouldn't stop stalking me for several months declared "You must want to have sex with me, you're a guy!"
Yeah, probably true.Jedi Sasquatch said:
Men already have a twilight, we just don't brag about it, we're rightfully ashamed of it, for example what I'd call my "Twilight" books would be John Ringo's wonderful male fantasy, the Kildar series, dude gets a castle, a harem, a personal army, and the US president on speed dial....
It's trashy, it's fun, it's basically brain porn, but I don't pretend it's anything else, I don't call it a literary masterpiece or dedicate fan-sites too it, if Twilight fans were rightly ashamed of that dreck they read I'd be okay with it.
Where's the guilt gone?
