“Harry Potter is the End of an Era. Twilight is the End of an Error.” - The Anti-Anti-Slogan

posted by cassie-1-2-3

“Harry Potter is the End of an Era. Twilight is the End of an Error.”

At first glance, u would think this is just another oh-so-clever Anti-Twilight slogan, reiterated door the Twilight hating masses, but in reality, are these antis only slamming themselves?

First off, what Era is Harry Potter ending? It’s own? So in other words, “Harry Potter is the end of Harry Potter”.

I’m assuming this “Error” is meant to represent Twilight, correct? So in other words, much like the above, “Twilight is the end of Twilight”.

In conclusion, “Harry Potter is the End of Harry Potter. Twilight is the End of Twilight.”
^Is that really for of against anything?

Do to the lack of sense this holds, I’m going to guess I misinterpreted the whole thing.

I’m going to try approaching this from a different angle. Hopefully, things will start to clear up.

Is this meant to demonstrate that the beginning of Harry Potter ended the vorige Era, which obviously lacked quality literature?
That sounds plausible.

Since Harry potter isn’t ending itself, I suppose it’s veilig to say that Twilight isn’t either, so I guess Twilight really did end some sort of error. That’s a good thing, right? If an Error can’t be corrected, then it should at least be ended.

I guess we should all thank Twilight for ending an Error, but a new vraag arises. What is this Error of which Twilight so nobly ended? Let’s restate the facts together.

*It’s already been concluded that Harry Potter ended the vorige Era…
*Twilight ended an Error…
*The first Harry Potter book was released on June 30, 1997…
*The vorige Era was ended on June 30, 1997…
*The first Twilight book was released on October 5, 2005…
*The Error was ended on October 5, 2005…
*The first Harry Potter book was released before the first Twilight book…
*The Era was ended before the Error was ended…
*Harry Potter ended an Era, but later, Twilight came around and ended an Error…

I hate to say it, but this slogan offers only one possibility… The End of an Era was an Error.

An Error which Twilight corrected… no.
THE Error which Twilight corrected!

cassie-1-2-3 It appears to be unfinished intentionally.

TheLoneWolf ...I'm lost :/ I've actually never used this expression...so yeah

wotcher-tonks wait what. I feel like I'm in math class o.o

KateKicksAss Lol, this is great! And I disagree with the first slogan in general. Harry Potter ISN'T ending, and Twilight isn't an error.

londonsrock that made no sense. an era is "a period of time marked by distinctive character, events, etc." according to dicrtinary.com. when the first movie came out it was nov. 2001. 9/11 had just happened, the War in Afghanistan started that October. i think a lot of people were looking for a distraction to what was going on in the world and HP was it. the first book came out in June 1997, and the fourth book was already out by the time the first movie premiered so the people that loved the movie like me had material to read while waiting for the second one. for a lot of ppl harry potter was a companion in a decade of transition, change and growth. while i enjoy twilight's fluff i must admit it carries anti-feminist views. also, it puts too much emphasis in looks that makes the main character seem shallow and obtuse.

cassie-1-2-3 Okay... So Harry Potter ended the era of war with is still in process?

ClaireVoyant ^ i don't think that's what she is trying to say. i think she just disagree with the using of the word ERA..maybe..

twilightlover73 What people mean by this statement is (not that I use it): Harry Potter has come to an end, it changed a lot of people's lives, people grew up through it, people had their whole childhood based on Harry Potter. When it ended, it was an end of an [b]ERA[/b] the era which was not Harry Potter, but the era which Harry Potter [b]CAUSED[/b]. People who use it obviously don't like twilight and think that it's crap, they think that it's an [b]ERROR[/b] for it to start in the first place. So when it ends, it is the end of an error, the end of a mistake, not of twilight, but what twilight [b]CAUSED[/b]. So yeah, you were wrong there. When they say that they don't mean "Harry Potter is the end of Harry Potter" or "Twilight is the end of Twilight" Anyways, I don't like this statement, and even though I don't like twilight anymore, I used to. So that's another reason for a person like me to show respect to the series, which is why I don't really like such phrases and disapprove of this one.

cassie-1-2-3 I've always understood what it meant.

twilightlover73 ^Really? [i]First off, what Era is Harry Potter ending? It’s own? So in other words, “Harry Potter is the end of Harry Potter”. I’m assuming this “Error” is meant to represent Twilight, correct? So in other words, much like the above, “Twilight is the end of Twilight”. In conclusion, “Harry Potter is the End of Harry Potter. Twilight is the End of Twilight.”[/i] I don't think so

cassie-1-2-3 This article was meant to be a bit of satire. I know exactly what the phrase means. I do feel that it can be easily misunderstood, since it's not worded very well. It can be interpreted this way, but I always knew how it was INTENDED to be interpreted, hence the first sentence.

Catalunya Like it :p
