Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I haven't seen any of the previous movies, but I might catch this one just to see how they handle the WTF.
Oh, it will be FULL of glorious, glorious WTF. Because in addition to that bit of plot crazy, the movie will have the Cesarean by vampire teeth part! I am still sad that the movie wasn't directed by David Cronenberg.
Wow. Twilight is way more bizarre than I thought it was.
Yeah, I haven't seen any of the others, but I've been perversely longing to see this one ever since Cleolinda detailed all the excruciating details of the WTFery. I may have to sneak a martini shaker into the theater.
The last book is one long GodKing Badfic. Cleolinda's recap is the best coverage of it, by far.

I'm planning on going to one of those fancy theaters that serves food & alcohol, so I don't have to bother with smuggling flasks of absinthe with me again. Instead, helpful staff will bring me booze!
For those of you who have read both- is Twilight more or less horrifying than Flowers in the Attic?
I would say more horrifying. It's been decades since I've read Flowers in the Attic, but I don't remember the lead female character (Christine?) being as spineless and vapid as Bella Swan. Plus, by the time you get to the last Twilight book, you've got the werewolf imprinting on the infant half-vampire and other WTFery.
I've heard that after reading the last Twilight book, some of the fans are swearing off sex altogether. Twilight: Scared Sexless?
The whole Twilight series is one long exercise in badfic.
Flowers in the Attic had a bizarre premise, but no more bizarre than other vaguely gothic potboiler type of stories, and at least Catherine was a fighter, and sort of amusing.
Jilli, linky to Cleolinda's recap? Also, re: your whitefont, wasn't there a similar birth in Lost Souls? But the mom doesn't survive ?

I would so go with you.
