Shocking Secrets in "New Moon"

The second instalment of The Twilight saga “New Moon” had the third largest opening weekend ever, behind “The Dark Night” and “Spiderman 3”. While the popularity of the vampire/werewolf/angst-ridden teen romance is not surprising, the film did contain some very unexpected things:
  • Vampires are able to travel in the daylight but are incapacitated by the sound of Kim Kardashian’s voice,
  • In the Twilight world, Obama has accomplished no change there either,
  • Teenage werewolves, while in human form, are allergic to shirts,
    Attractive people can be unhappy. Who knew?
  • Once again, obtaining a good education to prepare kids for college and a career seem to have no place in Hollywood’s version of high schools.
  • The fate of mankind depends on getting as many people as possible to a secret location in China to withstand the oncoming global catastrophes. No wait, that’s the plot of the movie “2012”. And the “Hannah Montana” movie.
  • Ripping the flesh off of an animal and drinking it’s blood just isn’t sexy, no matter how slow the “slo-mo” is.
  • The werewolf community is split over it’s support of Jon or Kate.
  • Foreshadowing of plot of “Twilight 3: Eclipse” suggests Edward, Bella, Jacob and Alice will be travelling the country in a van, solving mysteries.
  • Compared to vampire girls, mortal girls are a drag.
  • In a fight between a vampire and a werewolf, Mike Tyson would still win (if biting were allowed).
  • As much as he’d like to be a vampire, Adam Lambert is just a singer.
  • Even The Immortals give all the crummy jobs their minority members.

Ahhhhh, fabulous list. I refuse to get sucked into this Twilight crap.
Then again, I like my men old enough to legally drink. So I got that going for me.

You know, when I was a child I use to believe that vampires existed (common folklore). Grandma's way of scaring the s*7^t out of me. I WANT TO BELIEVE AGAIN, especially if they will bring out the hot wolves. Ohhhhh bite me.. I better stop!

Ed: "Sparkly" eh? I'll have to draw little hearts over my "i"s, and rainbows and unicorns.

Coffeypot: Then she complained to the vice-principal and the vampire was forced to take lithium to attend school.

J in the D: Speaking of 2012, I never knew limo's were such kick-ass off-road vehicles.

Mala: You like your men over 19? Mala's kickin' it Old School!

WVW: But they never call after they do bite.

Trooper Thorn said...

Meghan: Apparently money doesn't buy happiness either.

Jaina: All the body glitter you can handle.

Jaina said...

As one of our rules said in college, glitter is a necessity, NOT an accessory. Lol. (I don't actually own any right now)
