Logical reasons...
why Harry Potter v.s Twilight

*WARNING SPOILERS*

Hi! I'm Cinnominbubble and I have noticed the war between fandoms have been going on for a while with no clear outcome. There is a reason to this-We are stubborn. Twihards want to stick up for Stephanie Meyer, whilst Potterheads want to do the same for J. K. Rowling. But, I have noticed something. Many of our reasonings aren't exactly logical. I mean, not to be offensive, some of our strongest points are downright idiotic!(from both sides) I'd like to come up with some smarter points to help people see our side of the story, whatever that side may be! It would do well to expect meer of these in the future because of all the idiocy going around.(Again, not to be offensive)

I am a fan of Harry Potter but I'd like to acknowledge both sides to the story. People will be yelling at me at the end of this, so in advance, I say sorry for anything offensive.

-First off, I'd just like to say to u twihards, Harry Potter came first in 1998, whereas Twilight came out in 2005, I believe. So J.K Rowling did not copy Stephanie Meyer. I am in possession of both these series' and though Jacob and Sirius both have the same last name, and can both transform into dog-like figures, that is where the similarities stop. Sirius Black is a prisoner escaped from the wizard prison, Azkaban, where he was placed under false pretences. He is an old friend of Harry's parents, and is also Harry's godfather. He is only able to become a dog because he is an animagus, a witch of wizard with the ability to transform into a certain animal at will. He became an Animagus illegally in order to help his friend, Remus Lupin, who was a werewolf, through those bleak nights where there was a full moon. Werewolves only attack humans and so Sirius was only veilig while in his dog form. Jacob Black on the other hand, is not a real werewolf. In Breaking Dawn, his species is called Shape-shifters as Aro says himself. He is only a shape-shifter because it runs in his family and... Yah. That subject all cleared up? I hope so.

-I have heard people saying that Twilight is a better love story but there's an easy answer to that... Harry Potter isn't a love story. Sure, if u are into that genre, go for Twilight, but is not fair to say that Harry Potter is a bad book just because it's not a romance novel.

-Yah, ok the Harry Potter characters have flaws! Bella and Rosalie seem to be the only ones with flaws in the entire series, Bella's being her disability to understand what goes on around her sometimes, and Rosalie's being over-the-top-jeolosy... Those don't even seem like flaws! Harry's cast on the other hand, has plenty of flaws. Hermione with her buck-teeth and bad posture, Mrs. Weasley with her over-protectiveness et cetera. But as someone in history said, Flaws are what give your character, well, character! There are plenty of people in Harry Potter with less flaws(Cho, Cedric, et al.) but flaws none the less. So again, if u prefer boeken where u characters are close to perfect, be my guest and read Twilight. I personally found the characters meer relatable,(mainly Hermione) with their flaws and anger management issues.

Now I know I haven't addressed most of the major questions, but I honestly can't remember anymore(it's 10:06 PM, I just came home pagina from piano! Cut me some slack please...wow I whine a lot!) Feel free to give me feedback, vragen and requests for my volgende article(this is my first for Logical Reasons) Go ahead, tell me how bad it is, cant get any worse than what I (or Ralph[inside joke]) tell myself:D I will pas aan to accommodate all new questions, unless I get an overflow of questions. I will create an artikel for any point, if logical and/or if I understand/know of it. Since this is my first, I don't expect much. Just, if u have any negative comments(Twihards, if I wrote something wrong etc.)tell me in non badges form(don't be angry)

Yours in demigodishness, and all that. Peace Out!

Discussion regarding Twilight vampires and reply to Drisina at link

First Part:
The thing is Drisina, one cannot door fiat change a legend to whatever one very well pleases with. Vampires have been in mythology from the 17th century, e.g. Countess Elizabeth Bathory who alledgedly drank her female servants blood to stay young.

So what Stephenie Meyer does is that she takes the vampire-myth, and discards the gorier details and imperfections, replaces them with what she thinks they should be and et voila, we have Edward Cullen.

Now I shall dissect why most people think its a bad thing to do. Recall...

The Volturi and The Death Eaters have a lot in common. This artikel points out the features of The Death Eaters that the Volturi seem to have as well.
Before I begin, u have to remember that The Death Eaters were here first – so the Volturi copied them, not the other way around. Now, the leaders of the Volturi are –unless I’m very much mistaken – Aro, Marcus, and Caius. The leader of The Death Eaters is Lord Voldemort.
The Dark Lord can perform Legilemency, which is rather like mind reading, whatever Snape says. Aro can read minds too. The Dark Lord needs eye contact, Aro needs a...

Severus Snape. The man we all hated. Then loved. Then went back to hating. And then we positively loathed him. But, after, we found out hi story. And, when we knew the truth, what did we feel? Love.
Yes, we ended up loving Severus Snape. Because, once we knew HIS side of the story, it was clear.
Snape had a difficult childhood, which probably led to his disturbed adulthood. But we knew nothing about this until we read The Deathly Hallows. And after we found out, found out exactly what he had suffered through, our emotions changed. Snape is one of the deepest characters in Harry Potter, and...

It’s been a while since i am here in this Harry Potter vs Twilight community. Now, being a die hard Harry Potter fan my vote always go for the same, but I feel door criticizing any of the two of them is insulting the world of story writing. I give it a thought why this whole Harry Potter vs Twilight thing is started and all that comes to me is a memory of mine. At some point I liked Twilight (though not as much as I am obsessed with Harry Potter). Then one dag I had an argument with a friend of mine & naturally I sided with Harry Potter but hearing illogical criticism turned me against...

Ok, time for the other side of the story, in other words, time for another interview with a Twilight “hater”. Her name is Izabella, aka: venvargie! Let’s get started!

Could u introduce yourself please!

Hah, okay well I'm Izabella. But I usually go door Ven on the interwebz. I'm turning 16 in a few months and I don't watch a lot of TV so I don't have a favoriete toon xD.

What is it that u hate about Twilight?

Well, I hate the sparkling thing the most. Growing up, I watched all kinda of scary vampire films with my older brother and they were always the kind that died in the light and vanted...

Heellooooo!!!! I'm feeling rather random today so I thought I'd take a leaf out of Emma's rather large, leather bound book and do a stupid Harry Potter quiz. It's not actually a story, just a random collection of letters put together to form a random collection of words which will, in turn, provide a random collection of potentially amusing sentences. So, enjoy my little freaks!!!
Beware: If u have no sense of humour: DO NOT ENTER!!!
PS. I decided to post this on this spot as well as the HP one because everyone seems so mad at the opposition so I thought they might need a laugh :)

The "jejemon" mania is spreading in my country like mad.

I am a Filipino and Im getting really upset because almost half of the 'jejemon' population is in my country. Even my vrienden greet me through text messages '.,inN DisZ qKinD oFv m4nN3Rr.,' and Im now confused if they're simply Twihards of just some bunch of lunatics. I am also sad because when I zoek what 'jejemon' means it always come up with explanations that involve my country, am I gonna deny that I am a Filipino? will I curse them all because they're all proud of it? will I beg them to stop the stupidity? I know my options will...

New Moon Review

“…she [Stephanie Meyer] can’t write worth a darn. She’s not very good…” ~ Stephen King

And frankly, I agree. Stephanie Meyer, auteur of the Twilight series, has gotten her share of criticism, but also many undeserved raving fans. I’m going to take a closer look at her seconde book in this series, New Moon.
New Moon Is quite possibly the just all-around worst book in the series, and I will tell u why.

One, Edward leaves Bella, and she turns into a zombie-like wreck. She abandons all of her friends, instead focusing what little personality she has on hatred for Edward...

I just wanted to cut out this snippet and paste it here because I completely agree here. There is no being that's invincible, no matter how unnecessarily overpowered u make them.
----------------------------------------------------
Meyer thinks that humans are limited to two types of weapons: guns and slow-moving bombs. Oh, Meyer. u silly, silly bitch. There is one thing that we humans have been consistently good at since we first picked up a rock and looked speculatively at that schildpad hiding smugly inside of its shell:...

I cannot stress strongly enough the contempt I have for the franchise of Twilight. of at least the book. The films are meer funny than anything else, and honestly I don't hate any of the cast an crew working on it. Having read the bron material, I can see they had little to work with.
Harry Potter, on the other hand... I like. I don't LOVE it; I'm no Potterhead door any means, however much I might have been in the past. But it will always hold a very special place for me. I grew up with the boeken and films, reading and seeing them years apart from each other - growing up along with the characters...

I still love u after all these years.
Thinking of u brings me to tears.
I see u every time I dream
To know you’re gone makes me wanna scream.

Where are u my dear?
Are u near?

I have let sin consume my heart
And I let it tear us apart.
I didn’t realize until it was too late
When u had passed the gate.

I thought we’d always be best friends
Too bad it came to an end
Your eyes and voice still haunt me.
Sometimes I wonder if u are just beyond my reach.

Where are u my dear?
Are u near?

I have let sin consume my heart
And I let it tear us apart
I didn’t realize it until it was too late
When u had passed the gate. (2x)

Why am I still here?
