I would totally freak out for a little while if I found out my boyfriend was a vampire. I mean...who wouldn't?!

but in case of bella she wouldn't...when i actually saw that scene i couldn't stop laughing for half an hour....how stupid they make her look, i only see lust in her eyes in place of love ... eventhough i love the background score of piano in the movie brought me goosebumps....

Well, let's be honest. Bella is not what I would refer to as a good role model for any young girl.

well i agree with u....but who cares.no one sees her as role model, and people can decide for their own. i didnt like twilight even a bit other than jacob no one was interesting.....it could have been alot better as if u see vampire diary they have mystery in past, witches and stuff which makes them more cooler than twilight....twilight sucks

I agree that Vampire Diaries is far superior, story-wise and character-wise. Jacob was always my favorite character - in the movies and in the books.

than we are on the same boat but i am not a girl. so i dnt like jacob the way u like him...i like his colour and accent

She didn't know he was trying to protect her; he made her believe that he didn't really love her.
She got depressed. People will get depressed for certain reasons or maybe even for no clear reason at all. She may even had worse problems than that, remember she was having hallucinations?
In real life, people who suffer from depression are always getting told to "get over it" or "look on the bright side". Well, it's not that easy.

she could have gone to see a professional. to be honest i think if the story was how she got over edward and how she learnt to be dependent on her own would have been a much better story line because it would have been interesting and given a better message to young girls.

Well that's what was hard about it. She couldn't really say anything about it; if she shared what really happened to a professional then that would be a one way ticket to a psychiatric facility. (Her relationship with Edward had to do so much with his being a vampire, from the initial attraction to their physical relationship limits; so even if she decided to talk to someone she couldn't really get into the specifics.) After a few months she did try to move on with her life despite still being weighted with problems she couldn't share.
Hmmm, that might have been interesting, sort of, but I think it would have negated the love story that twilight established. It was meant to be and marketed as a love story. In my opinion, it doesn't make it less of a journey for Bella even though her desired future is only one that involves Edward.

Always will be, ever since he said "Hello, Brother." :D"
very nice...and where do they get these word from like 'vervaine' and many more...

That's straight from the books. Kevin and Co. didn't come up with it themselves.

Elena sometimes annoys me too but she's at least a fighter who won't give up because her suck happy bf left her.
Bella is just plain pathetic. She doesn't accomplish one single thing by herself.

exactly. The vampire diaries story line and characters do have some flaw but at least it works and captivates the reader/ watcher.

Yeah, they basically took the basics from the book and ran from there. I mean, the TV show doesn't follow the book at all, except for the first few episodes. The Originals, the Doppelganger and all that is totally from the show's writers.

Pretty obvious, The writing's been going downhill. I'm starting to appreciate the books more and more.

Sounds a little too contrived IMO.
It's reasonable that you don't like how it went, some people feel the same way. But that's how Meyer envisioned Bella's journey. Much like life, we can't control how it goes, certain undesirable circumstances may arise (maybe one after the other). People feel how they feel, and they cope with it in their own way. Yes Bella moped, but she got the strength to try to move on, start talking to her friends again, reach out a little bit, write letters to Alice... you can't really say she didn't give any effort to forwarding her life after that rough patch.

Always will be, ever since he said "..."
I think the storyline is really good - until they go off on some crazy limb. And by a crazy limb I mean all those horrible random romantic interludes between Damon and any female that wears lip gloss and breathes. I mean....really?

I know, he should be with Bonnie already.

Who? Damen?
Who? Damen?

Perhaps Damon and Bonnie were a good match in the books, but with the way it's portrayed in the show, I don't think there's any way that they will be getting together (view spoiler) .

There are no characters that you can actually connect with in Twilight. Well, except Leah. The rest are just idiots.
At least the VD characters are smart. I'm hoping we get a Vampire Academy series/movie soon. :)

That's the problem though. they keep making Damon so screwed up with all the killings. Besides doesn't surprise me (view spoiler)

Special rings that protect them from sunlight.

So no I don't think Tvd copied Twilight, Sure Twi might have helped with the succes of TVD but the fact that it remaind succesfull was all because of the show itself and not cause of Twilight.
Again My opinion.

How can TVD copy Twilight if it was released a decade before?
In any case, I can at least watch the soapy teen drama of TVD with a bit of interest. The Twilight movie on the other hand was laughably bad imo.

i know i did the same thing but i got both seasons on box set so i re watched them all and really enjoyed it . i'm glad that the directors had the guts the kill some of the characters off cause sometimes no one dies in series and it gets to predictable.
