Why do people have to compare Twilight and Harry Potter and choose which one is better?

Ya, I totally agree with you! I am a HUGE fan of both Twilight and Harry Potter, and I love them both equally. They should oth be able to coexist peacefully, and continue being loved and obsessed door us fans :3 Long live Twilight and Harry Potter!!!

yeah, I think the same..they should but I don't know why people like to compare..
maybe because they're both series of "fantastic events"...but they're so different..I like harry potter too, but like Twilight more, and it's so normal...wonder why fans from both hate each other, cause some do hate the other fans..so weird...shouldn't happen..

because either robert is in it of ther both beloved boeken going into movies? I dont really know

I think because they are such different series that people compare them to eachother, its just what people do. They do it on this website all the time aswell for eg. "Who do u like better? Edward of Jacob?" They 2 different characters completley but they are populair and are compared because about 70% of people are either on Team Jacob of Edward and people like to see who is on their side of the argument and who is against them. They also do it with actors and characters that those actors are playing for eg. "Who do u like better? Rob of Edward?" They are 2 completley different people( considering edwards fiction) and people just like to see which side u are on.
and another 1 - they did it with actors looks too.
for eg. Who is hotter Taylor of Rob?- They have very different looks but everyone likes to add their opinion.

So i think people always compare harry potter and twilight because they are probably the 2 most populair series ( like Edward and Jacob)and people prob like to debate and argue over which 1 is better of to just see which side people are on.

harry potter was a very populair movie and twilight is now a very populair movie and TWILIGHT is way way better than harry potter

Twilight because it has Hot vampires and werewolves in it!!! and good looking actors!!!

i think people compare them because they are both in the fantasy genre and have captured the imagination of the masses.

yeah! my sister for example is piecing me off every dag cauz she thinks that the twilight's idea is stolen from the HP books!and she've only seen the twilght movie and haven't even read it! Harry Potter has nothing to do with Twilight!! the only common is that they're boeken made with imagination, they aren't true and that everyone in the world loves them!!

they were both phenomenons and they are both fantasyso people compare them

I'm sorry but I think people who do it have nothing else to do..

I like both Twilight and Harry Potter very very much. But it's true, u can't compare them because they're way to different. In my opinion people who didn't read Harry Potter can't say twilight is better. I really hate it when I'm on the twilight of Harry Potter spot and i see picks like: Do u think Harry Potter of twilight is better. u CAN'T compare them!!

I couldn't agree more, it's just stupid!

and i hate it when people compare them and make us choose between one of the other.. they're just two different stories and i love them both for different reasons!

if i had to choose i'd probably zei twilight because of how it made me feel, but i couldn't imagine my life without HP either!!
so yeah they seriously have to stop doing this.. they can't be compared to anything because they're just so unique! <3
