I am a Harry Potter fan, simply because I prefer good writing, deep characters, actual conflicts and beautifully crafted worlds over Twilight's content.

I would like to point out that there have been lots of good reasons as to why Harry Potter is better than Twilight but not a lot on why Twilight is better than Harry Potter.een jaar geleden
To be fair, it's all subjective. What's 'better' to one person is 'worse' to another. Personally l think HP is better and I have reasons as to why (most of which are something along the lines of 'Bellatrix is in it.') I think so. But others disagree and I'm sure they have their reasons.een jaar geleden
In my opinion, Twilight and Harry Potter are the primary reasons why there is even a young adult genre. They kept the genre alive when non-readers turned into avid readers. For that, they are both equally important, the rest is just a matter of opinion!

harry potter is totally the winner on this because twilight taught me that i need to have a boyfriend to be any one in the world but hermione taught me that i am brave and strong woman. why do people like twilight i mean it is so simple that is is garbage even Robert Paterson says that it was a terrible exsperiance to be in those movies.

Harry Potter is better no contest. The fans are universal, of all different cultures and ages, Twilight is made for teenage girls and that's pretty much as far as the group spans. Harry Potter fans, I have noticed, belong to meer then just the Harry Potter fandom, its very mixed, all of us have different books, movies, tv shows,etc. that we enjoy and we all come together through Harry Potter. u can't say the same for twilight. Harry Potter spans in armies far larger then the initial group.

Any Way, Harry Potter will reign supreme because we had Rob Pattinson first. and then he wasn't some sparky guy, he was a true man and we loved him better as Cedric than Edward.

Harry Potter is about facing your fears, having courage, and fighting aganist all odds. Twilight is about how hard it is to have two hot guys like u at the same time.

Hello, I'm doing a research on fan culture for my third jaar studies at Univeristy. It would be great if a few of u could answer a fewquestions! - What made u become such a huge fan of harry potter? - Do u believe that interaction with other fans has increased your fandom ? -Finally why do u believe that Harry Potter is better then Twilight ? & are they easily compared ? Any help would be really appreciated! Thank u :)

-My intrest in Bellatrix's character got me into it. -Yes and no, at first it actually pushed me away from the fandom and as I made vrienden with them ,y love for the boeken did increase. -I think HP is better because it's story line is meer interesting in my opinion, the characters are better, Draco's hotness isn't discussed on every other page, and our Bella is far far better. I think they can.een jaar geleden
1) Snape's character. 2) Yes, being able to discuss the boeken and finding out that I wasn't the only one who was not particularly enamoured with the main characters and being able to share thought, pictures, fanart, etc with other like minded individuals, has allowed me to be exposed to meer facets of the fandom, to delve into and to enjoy my fandom to a greater extent 3) I don't think it's that much better than Twilight, I don't think they are easily compared apart from the fact that they're both YA boooks and are both fantasy boeken . I read Twilight when I'm in the mood for a light romance with a happy ending and HP when I'm in a slightly darker mood believe it of not as I'm generally meer interested in Snape's tragic story that that of the golden trio.een jaar geleden
I think Harry Potter is the best because there are already too many vampire love stories in the world. I'm getting sick of them. But, if both subjects bore you, maybe read "Alice in Zombieland: Off with their heads" instead. It's a great book about zombies and stuff.

I am concerned about the quality of Harry Potter fans here lately (or those who argue in defense of Harry Potter). They used to be a lot better at discussion. I know I found a large portion of the tactics to be tasteless, but at least they zei something of substance, but now, all we seem to get is "How is Edward even born?" of "Harry Potter is good, unlike Twilight". Have we really run out of things to say? Oh well. I ran out of things to say months ago.

Why not compare them. They are both populair pieces of literature, and some people enjoy the debating. I enjoy the debate, so long as people don't go nuts. And of course the wizards aren't fairies, nor are the Cullens. Whilst the Cullens do sparkle in the sun they are vampires, not fairies.een jaar geleden

Me too. Diamonds sparkle, so logically, people with diamond skin would also sparkle. I think it makes meer sense than burning of dying because the sun is good and vampires have evil souls, of whatevr the reason is.een jaar geleden
! knew that, but Dracula wasn't really the first vampire. The aversion to the sun started with Nosfaratu (whatever his name is). the writer of that movie changed it to being killed door the sun so he caould tiptoe around Stoker's copyrights. Anyways, Dracula wasn't actually weakened door the sun, he was weakened door daylight hours, even in the dark.een jaar geleden
I wasn't saying he was the first vampire, just the first to have an aversion to the sun of daylight of whatever is what I meant. What I meant was that there's nothing inherent about vampires that means they are affected door the sun in any way; it always annoys me when people call that a 'flaw' in twilight - it's not. And I thought Dracula just lost his power in the day, so I guess u could say he was strengthened door the night as much as weakened door the day.een jaar geleden
Some things I've been seeing around the internet have been cracking me up lately. People getting angry at the Breaking Dawn part 2 TV spots because they say "The motion picture of the decade", and saying "Excuse me, but Harry Potter *blah blah blah*..."
That's great and all, to think Harry Potter is the greatest whatever of the decade, but this is a very common phrase amongst movie trailers and TV spots. I've never ever seen anyone complain about any other movie calling

What really pissed me off is how Bella got everything she wanted in the end. She was suppose to sacrifice her family, best friend, future children, and sanity (for a couple decades). Instead, she got a "perfect" child, her dad, her best friend, and total control over her lust of blood. Then, we're all excited about the big battle against the Volturi… and it never happened. WTF?!! NOT cool. At least the final climax in Harry Potter HAD a battle. (Which was pretty awesome). HP all the way. :D

@ tsmith120: Having a bit of a temper is not a *noteworthy* flaw. Ginny gets angry when people annoy her, oh wow! That's not a flaw. In fact her temper is not depicted as a bad thing in the books, rather it seems to be used to reienforce the message that Ginny is a strong willed girl who shouldn't be trifled with. His dead loved ones did returned through an implausible way ie the resurrection stone where they then proceeded to talk to him and reassure him they are happy, always with him and are now in fact in a better place. All neatly sorted at the end so he can go on with his perfect life where he gets the job of his dream, the perfect wife, a beautiful large loving family, his wand back, respect, wealth, wisdom, good looks etc, etc. Where in the book does it tell u about Umbrige's, the elves', centaurs' and werewolves' fates? Where in the book does it mention what Hermione and Kingsley did? BTW sorry for the tardy response, been away where there's no Internet.een jaar geleden
But makes a book great is the moral of the story of the sympathy/love u feel toward a charcter. Harry Potter teaches the importance of bravery, love and vrienden while I feel like Twilight teaches u that if u sacrifice your family and friends, everything will turn out fine and everyone will live happily ever after. Not very realistic, in my opinion.een jaar geleden
^What?? Didn't u just say on your own post that Harry Potter is all about sacrifice and Twilight has "no loss, no sacrifice". And now you're saying that it's not okay for Twilight to have sacrifice and a happy ending? Sorry, but I'm confused.een jaar geleden

Lots of reasons. But mainly I think it's because it's immensely populair and it's a genre that was enjoyed and appreciated traditionally door a smaller section of people - women who liked escapism romance, but all of a sudden became meer mainstream. Most people who criticise it IMO don't understand the appeal of the boeken of the standard "rules" such a book follows. It's a bit like the hysteria there was when role playing games first came to people's attention. RPGs were traditionally enjoyed door a small group of generally young boys/teens who liked playing fantasy war-games. When it became a bit meer mainstream, the media and most people who didn't understand it went on and on about how it was leading kids into devil worshiping and influencing impressionable children and teens into acts of violence. When in reality it was just a game that provided a bit of escapism fun.een jaar geleden

Considering I had admitted I wasn't a fan of Harry/Ginny and I hated the sorting concept I'd say I can handle criticism. I'm just a tad annoyed/offened door the assumption that all Harry Potter fans are brats who insult and yell at people and that people think every commentaar of ours was meant to be defensive of rude.
