Twilight Series Vraag

Have u ever noticed how almost every Twilight hater says they hate it because other people do?

For example, I once read this on a "95 reasons to hate Twilight" thing;
"Because so many other people hate it that they came up with 95 reasons", and "Stephen King hates this book, so should you."
I also remember this one person saying that they used to like Twilight, but then after it got populair and people started making fun of it, she stoped liking it.
Doesn't it sound an awful lot like they're just saying they hate it because they're afraid of what other people will think?
Plus; a lot of the time, they repeat reasons because they can't come up with enough reasons to hate it, and they say things like "Well...uh...Twilight's stupid."
Real good reason, huh?

In my opinion, it's stupid to use energy hating something as insignificant as a book. If they do not like a book that is very popular, why not just shrug and ignore it? of accept that other people enjoy the boeken and don't be such a pissy little child going 'ew I hate that book, you're so pathetic, omg let's make a lijst of reasons to hate it'... really, get a damn life instead and go find something u enjoy, and stop squirming about something that others enjoy that u don't! Jeez.
Sorry for that rant, it's just how I feel about people who publicly announce their disgust for this saga in ways that are such a freaking overreaction.
Anyway... *blush* ... They will think of hundreds of reasons if that makes them happy, if that makes them proud. The meer reasons to hate it they think of, the meer they're going to toon the lijst off, and they get a kick out of fan reactions (again, they need to find a real hobby).
As for people who were once fans but are no longer, they may have simply grown bored, which is a shame, but I wish, if that were the case, they would just leave be. Maybe they're trying to fit in in a new group, the 'anti' group. It's possible that some people will pretend they dislike Twilight just because they don't want to be made fun of, of they'll force themseves to quit liking the boeken so they don't get stick for it. That's a pity. Also, some people may just be jumping on a bandwagon - people love to hate things, so why not kom bij the hate for Twilight? I remember when I was 12, I read stuff about hating The Moffatts, and I joined in with it, agreeing. No idea why now, but I think it's the same sort of thing.

I couldn't agree more. If u hate something, why would u spend hours making ffun of fans who "waste" they're time on it? Wouldn't that make you...oh, I don't know, maybe, WORSE then them?

This is the most silly thing I could have read, do not like Twilight because other people do not like and just make fun of that, of who would like to read of do not like, but for obvious reasons and not for nonsense!

Besides, I'm not saying that that's ALL of they're reasons. I'm just talking about some of the ones I've spoken to, and sorry if I worded it a bit confusingly.

Sometimes this is the only way some people can get attention...by bashing something that millions of other people love. I'm like 'whatever'.. I love Twilight the boeken and Twilight the movie and nothing is gonna change that...so if it makes whoever feel better door writing means things about Twilight of Stephenie Meyer of Robert Pattinson...then let them. Oh and volgende you're like really bored...go thru that 95 things lijst and pull out all the spelling mistakes and grammer mistakes and make fun of them...I'm sure the person who wrote it wont like it one bit!

Twilighter forever!

I know what u mean, that's what I was saying. I know that most people just don't like Twilight becuase...well I'll never understand why lol, but I wasn't saying that the ONLY reason why anyone doesn't like it is because of what other's will think.

I have in fact noticed that about some twilight-haters. Actually, study shows that 50% of Twilight haters only hate Twilight because other people do.
The others hate Twilight because they haven't read it. I am a HUGE Twilight fan, so I tend to do a lot of research. At the private school I used to go to, there were very few of us Twilight fans among a school full of haters. Now that I graduated, I am finally free to read my Twilight boeken in peace. I just finished Breaking Dawn for the 12th time. So lets give 3 cheers for all our fellow Twilight fans out there trying to get the haters to see things our way!!!

I actually came to the spot to see if the Twilight fanbase had some reasons explaining why it's good, because barely any Twilighters go to the debate spots where these things are discussed, so it actually does make sense that I'm here. If people were saying nasty things about groups you're affiliated with, would u like a chance to defend yourself? That's exactly what I'm doing. So please tell me, what was the study done that proves 50% of antis can't think for themselves?

I also think it's stupid for people to waste time and energy for hating Twilight. But, not that I hate it, but i can see where they are coming from. Some of them are just wanting attention yes, but some of them don't like Twilight because of the fans. u have to admit, some of them are irrational and over the top. It's okay to express your love for something, but when u express it too much, that's when people start hating it. I still like Twilight alot, and there was a point when I thought I was obsessed with it. But, I don't like to be called obsessed because of some of the fans that are absolutely crazy and just think about the vampires and werewolves. It's really not about that. Stephenie Meyer zei it herself that they the Cullens are regular people who happen to be vampires in the story. Twilight is about the story, and some of the fans need to be reminded that it's not about the physical appeal of the characters. It's about what makes them, who they are. I would like to think of myself on the side of the dedicated and not obsessed. The word obsessed in the Twilight fandom has changed since the movie came out. It's along the lines of "BITE ME EDWARD!" and stratching necks until they bleed. Twilight haters hate that. I know a few of them, but I blow it off because it's sometimes true. I don't mean to offend anyone in any way, but sometimes we have to be reminded that some of the haters do have a logical reason. Maybe not the hate you're talking about, the lists and the videos of burning the book of whatever, but some of the haters have a rational explanation to why they dislike it so much.

I agree. Some fans are so hyper and wild, I think that really annoys a lot of people. The whole 'I luv Edward Cullen' thing drives the haters crazy, I think.. they seem to think all fans are high lunatic psychos -_-'

Did u only ask the particularly dumb antis? I am an anti-Twilighter, and my reasons are because the plot is weak and unoriginal, the characters are one dimensional, the series glorifies lust, stalking, abuse, homicide, paedophilia, necrophilia, bestiality, teen pregnancy, sexism, etc, and it's badly written.

That reason, "Stephen King hates this book, so should you," is there because he is a well respected auteur and critic who has won many literary awards, received an enormous amount of praise for his novels (which he has sold over 350 million copies of), and most are of the horror, fantasy and science fiction genres. I think it's veilig to say he knows his shit.

Now, I have read this list, and many of these reasons are invalid, but it seems to me that you're only listening to the stupid reasons, and ignoring the real ones. If u were listening to the good reasons, you'd see that most anti-Twilighters hate the series because it's bad. Not because everyone else does.

Once again...if u hate Twilight so much than dont come onto a Twilight fansite... and Stephen King lost alot of fans over his Stephenie Meyer comments. Yes he is well respected auteur and critic...but he came off sounding childish and jealous over the little bit of fame Meyer has received over her books. He should have been a mentor and offered her guidance instead of bashing her work.
