    I will give a good rating for anything that makes fun of twilight.

  2. Crystallia says:

    lul

  3. Athene says:

    If they forcesd that crap on me I’d jump too!

  4. dissimilitude says:

    I considered this option once when my in-flight movie was “Wild Hogs”.

  5. Jojo says:

    Wild Hogs was terrible, but I’d still watch it over Twilight.

    • Ivan, Socialist Belgium Superstar! says:

      Just wait til you see Old Dogs. *wretch*

    • The Amazing Rando says:

      Hmmm…still though, worst movie ever: The Day After Tomorrow.

      • Patriarch Green Beard the Canuck says:

        Really? I thought “The Core” was worse, but that’s just my opinion.

        • The Amazing Rando says:

          Haven’t seen The Core. And now I’ll make sure I don’t. TDAT was just so unbelievably awful…which means of course my brother liked it. I only watched to the end to give me something to laugh at.

          • Churj says:

            The Core is by far one of the worst movies of all time… right up there with the new Dawn of the Dead.
            TDAT isn’t too bad as long as you realise there’s no real science in the movie, and just watch it, like you apparently did, for fun.

            • The Amazing Rando says:

              No…no…it wasn’t fun. It was just bad. Suspension of disbelief is one thing, but that movie…I mean c’mon. It was…wow. I *loved* the South Park episode that ripped that movie a new one.

              • Churj says:

                Come now… running away from ice that’s chasing you down a hallway is just so bad that it’s good. Especially since all you have to do is shut a door to stop it.

                • The Amazing Rando says:

                  Heh heh yeah. “The ultra freezing temperature won’t be able to penetrate this run-of-the-mill WALL. We’re safe now!”

                  • I Like Peanut Butter the Un-Neutered Dominant Male Monkey MFer says:

                    But it warns us of the problems of Global Warming (or Climate Change)… I personally liked the whole Wolves in NYC on a Ship by the Empire State Building. Or the VP looking EXACTLY like Cheney…… THAT was entertaining…. ;-)

                    • The Amazing Rando says:

                      Yeah, the seemingly magical invincible wolves were the last straw for me. “How can we stretch the movie out another 5 minutes? Oh let’s have them chased by wolves in -10000000 degree weather!”

                      • I Like Peanut Butter the Fire Starter says:

                        Well they do have an undercoat? I would have found Polar Bears more realistic, however how would the Sarah Palin look alike have gotten them to NYC? You know what really bothers me about that movie? They evacuate all the major cities in the North East, but DID they evacuate the zoos? What about the farms? Did they leave all those poor animals to die?

                  • Default User says:

                    Walls can protect you from anything.

                    Except the Kool-Aid man.

                • Kn0wledge1ne says:

                  Armaggedon was actually one of the most scientifically inaccurate movies I’ve ever seen. From not noticing an astroid the size of Texas until 18 days before it hits Earth, to sound in space, to “sling-shoting” around the moon, to the non-existant “zero barrier”, to even landing on fvcking astroid in the first place.

                  I heard a NASA prospect test is to actually watch the movie and find all the mistakes. So far, over 168 were found.

          • Default User says:

            A friend of mine was taking a class involving the study of natural disasters when that movie came out. Part of their homework was to watch that movie and basically write an essay about how wrong it was.

      • UpTheYingYang says:

        So you haven’t seen 2012 yet Eh? Shuddrrrrr..

        • The Amazing Rando says:

          A friend of mine was trying to get me to watch that one. He said it was better than what people said. I passed.

          • shortright; founding member AAAM says:

            it was better than what people said… if you realized it was a comedy. i mean, seriously, john cusack as an action hero? definitely a comedy.

        • Patriarch Green Beard the Canuck says:

          Personally I enjoy apocalypse movies. The bad acting, worse one-liners, absurd story lines, absolute disregard for science/reality. They are kind of like B-list movies with an A-list budget that gets spent entirely on special effects.

          Of course not everyone spent a good chunk of their college years getting stoned with their buddies watching B-list movie marathons, so I guess some people never developed a taste for really bad movies.

          • The Amazing Rando says:

            I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say…you’re a fan of Mystery Science Theater?

            • Patriarch Green Beard the Canuck says:

              >.>

              … maybe…

              • The Amazing Rando says:

                That’s what I like to hear.

                • Ivan, Commie/Liberal/Heathen Superstar! says:

                  Actually, I LIKE all those “A” disaster movies. It’s like Green Beard says. If you’re drunk enough, the glaring errors don’t really matter anymore, and you just get off on the total destruction special effects. *hangs head* I’m such a guy.

                  • I Like Peanut Butter the Fire Starter says:

                    That’s why I’ll go to a Stallon movie. You’re almost certain to have good explosions or sensless violence. ALAS it hasn’t happened lately, so now I go see Statham movies, ALWAYS a good car chase scene.

                    • paws4thot says:

                      I can’t stand Stallone; about the only film I’ve got that he’s in is Swordfish (and there are other reasons for that, including “his” TVR).

                      • shortright; founding member AAAM says:

                        stallone isn’t in swordfish… that’s john travolta and hugh jackman (and a topless halle berry).

      • Luke says:

        No way. Worst movie ever=tie between meet the spartans and disaster movie.

      • Captain Wow says:

        Crank 2: High Voltage.

      • paws4thot says:

        Clearly I’m the only person here who’s seen “The Roller-Blade Seven”. At least I got paid by the shop for taking it away! (and didn’t forget a smilie there)

  6. Sofa King says:

    I’d be jumping without a chute if it was twilight (/shudder)

    • Yorrieborrie says:

      I think I’d prefer just breaking the DVD in half, but if it’s locked away somewhere: A very good second option.

  7. WHEWWWW says:

    ROFL that was an awesome caption! this is oging on the desktop for sure

  8. Carlesme says:

    Don’t be haters Twilight is the bestest thing to ever ever ever exsist ever since they invented icanhascheezburger.com So now I shall annoy thee with my fangirlness. OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG TWILIGHT!!! TEAM EDWARD!

  9. Carlesme says:

    Erm and also you Twihaters better prepare yourself. New Moon DVD comes out in 4 days!!

    • viking gal, original AAAM member says:

      I’m personally waiting for them to make a movie of the last book…just because of: how will they manage to do it?

      • Smurf says:

        U care?

        • HelOnWheels says:

          I can’t wait for a Buffy meets Twilight movie. That will be AWESOME: And then Buffy staked Edward…The End!!

          • Cynical-Vegemite says:

            Nope ‘fraid not. Buffy likes her vampires sorta all sparkly and gay. First there was Angel then there was Spike :(

            Oh for fvcks sake I just outed myself as a major buffy geek didn’t I?

            • Patriarch Green Beard the Canuck says:

              Knowing Buffy had a thing for limp-wristed vamps with souls makes you a Buffy geek. Remembering who Oz was and why he left in season 4 would make you a major Buffy geek.

              • paws4thot says:

                How about knowing why he left, that he came back, then discovered he hadn’t got the werewolf thing as under control as he’d thought and left again on discovering that Willow was now gay then?

            • HelOnWheels says:

              Buffy vamps were never sparkly! Vampires don’t sparkle!! And she would never get involved with the Cullens-type vamps; she would stake all of them.

              OOOh, I know, I know why Oz left because I am a major Buffy geek!!

              • Photog Golfer says:

                Forget about a Buffy meets Twilight, I’m waiting for Blade meets Twilight movie. It will be about 5 minutes long and feature Blade stomping all of the sparkley vamps and shirtless werewolves asses into the ground, them having Blade eat an awesome looking hamburger (medium w/ lettuce, tomato, red onion and mustard on a nice home made bun) with the credits rolling. It would then be the happiest day of my life to see that movie, and my number one all time flick!

              • Rattus says:

                Sadly I know why all her men left. And that the dude who played Pam’s erstwhile fiance in The Office also played Skip in Angel.

                Apparently I am a geek.

    • Midnight says:

      Like I care…..
      pfft..

  10. I chortled! Nice work!

  11. justacarolinian says:

    Boom de yadda….

  12. schnell says:

    I was eating when I saw this, I almost choked. This is one of the funnier things I’ve seen on here in awhile.

  13. megalodon says:

    Huh. Kinda nice to see people on here still okay with hating Twilight. The commentors all seem to hate all the anti-Twilight captions under the other tabs. I guess because SMeyer’s yak-fest is less commonly linked with news here?

    • The Amazing Rando says:

      Hating Twilight is always a good thing. It’s just not done to death here on PK.

    • HelOnWheels says:

      No, we hate Twilight because it sucks. Nothing to do with it being news related or not.

      • Photog Golfer says:

        +1 to that HelOnWheels
        I didn’t mind the whole Harry Potter phase that some kids went through, I mean come on, who wouldn’t want to have awesome magical powers and things like that? But at least it’s not setting any kids up for a lifetime of disappointment and failure like the Twilight series. All those poor tween girls (I can’t believe I just used that word) who don’t find their “Edward” will sulk and be upset until the next stupid craze comes out. In my younger days, we played with Pogs…

        • HelOnWheels says:

          Oh, it’s not just tween girls that are insane over this craptastic series; I have friends in their 30′s and coworkers in their 40s and 50s who think OMG TWILIGHT IS SOOOO ROMANTICAL SWOON!!!
          *gags* Sorry, just to type that made me sick.

          • cammy says:

            my mother is 52 and is all “ZOMG AHHHHH” and i have a 12 year old sister whos all “OMG OMG OMG!!!!1!” and me being a 16 year old male thinks “OMG IT SUCKS SOO BAD IT HURTS MY BRAIN!!”

            Why Breaking Dawn Must Be Made Into a Movie.

            “It’s so horrible it’s brilliant, and this scene alone is why I remain firm in declaring that David Cronenberg must direct Breaking Dawn.”

          • dissimilitude says:

            PK is eating/moderating all my posts ….I wonder if they’ll all turn up at once later? Hmmm. Anyway:

            Copy, paste, read, laugh.

            • HelOnWheels says:

              ROFLMAO!! I would totally watch that movie, especially if Cronenberg directed it. A thousand thank-you’s for sharing this, Diss.

    • mabsba says:

      Having read some of the pro-twilight comments on some of the other lolsites, I’m guessing the average age might be a little higher here and Twilight does seem to more popular with a younger age group.

      • Churj says:

        Have you ever encountered any of those twilight moms? They’re freaking creepy.
        Last time I followed a teenage girl around screaming and crying everytime I saw her I ended up with a restraining order and 6 months… how come the twi-moms can do it?!?!!11!!??!elebenty!?1

      • viking gal, original AAAM member says:

        I’ve a LOT of my students into Twig-lite. Ick. I try to remember that at least they are reading something in addition to their studies…

  14. Sussy says:

    Eh. The books aren’t terrible, but not worth obsessing over. I find the main characters to be annoying, but the rest aren’t so bad, and the story line is mildly interesting. Bella always falling is pretty funny. There is some humor there. But all this obsessing that everyone does… I mean, if you’re going to obsess over a vampire, at least make it a good one, like Erik Northman. He’s a pretty kick-ass vampire. But back to the point… I think the most annoying thing is the Team Edward/Team Jacob crap. There is really only one answer: Jacob fvcks Bella’s daughter.

    • Sussy says:

      Also, on a side note; I wouldn’t jump with that type of parachute even if the inflight entertainment was the fox news channel. I’ll stick to ram-air. 9 cell. At least till I can land without falling on my face. Or I invest in my own rig.

      • paws4thot says:

        I think that’s a C-17 military transport. I wasn’t aware that they had a para-drop capability, but that aside, if you’re going out of one of them you’ll be dropping on a static-line rig, not a free-fall, and the military don’t like giving anyone except the display teams aerofoil rigs because if you can steer a chute you almost inevitably tend to head for the one tree, power line, church spire, lake… in the drop zone, and the more you “try to steer away” the more certain it is you’ll land there.

    • The Amazing Rando says:

      “alan ball has castrated eric beyond belief and it’s awful.”

      This sentence made me wince.

      • mabsba says:

        I enjoyed the True Blood books, not exactly deep reading, but entertaining. I found the TV series just became so weird after a while that I didn’t enjoy it then. I hadn’t thought about the different portrayals of Eric, but you are correct (although I’m not entirely confident in your idea for the reasons…lol). Maybe that’s why they made the crazy lady (I can’t remember what she was?) so dominant — they needed the evil to make up for taming Eric down? It seemed to me that it was just an excuse to bring all the group sex scenes in.

        • shortright; founding member AAAM says:

          i enjoy the sookie books… i own the 9 that have been published thus far and have pre-ordered 10. i haven’t seen season 2 of true blood yet, but i read enough online to know that alan ball is firmly in “team bill”. which ought to be interesting going into season 3 considering that bill is not really one of the main characters due to his kidnapping…
          what i didn’t like in the information about season 2 was that it seemed they made maryann (the manaed (sp?)) the main plot point. but, if they include the orgy and put eric in the hot pink and green lycra pants i might forgive them. :-D

      • The Amazing Rando says:

        Read it again: “has castrated ERIC beyond belief and it’s awful.”
        Think about it.

    • Nucky the Booty Wench says:

      Shorty, have you ever read the Anita Blake series from Laurell K. Hamilton?

      • shortright; founding member AAAM says:

        no. i just got into the sookie books not that long ago because an ex-coworker (who i introduced to twilight) thought i would enjoy them as an adult (and better written) version of twilight. froo has talked about those ones before and i’ve been interested, but haven’t really looked them up yet.

  15. Nope says:

    I also bought the MAD magazine lately – it shows pretty good why this movie svcks. Might be that some parts of the movie are good (and NO I will never watch that thing) but the main characters are just “as interesting as last weeks vegetable casserole – just not as lively”.
    Besides – twilight is not a real vampire or gothic novel. It’s kind of a (really bad) love story that contains vampires written by a woman with least of writing experience.

    • Tsukihime says:

      Wholeheartedly agree!!
      I go to college and I sit next to a person who obsesses way too much over Twilight. I know for a fact that when New Moon was in the cinema here, she went to see it WAY more than once while it was in there. It’s not worth it. It’s really, REALLY not. Even Twilight fans(should) agree with me there, if they have any sense.
      And there’s nothing about Twilight that really interests me besides the fact that that kind of love story has been done before(while most think it’s original). My first ‘vampire love story’ experience was years before these books even came out. I named my username after it: Tsukihime. The images that are on the Twilight book covers even match the images on the manga adaptation(the apple one drove me nuts because when I first saw the cover I thought Tsukihime was finally getting recognition in North America, only to find it was some book I never heard of at that time). And there’s no sparkly Vampires either(a lot of ones that turn to dust once killed though, but the dust doesn’t sparkle-it looks more like dried blood or something).

      • Default User says:

        I liked the books. I really did, but I only went to see the first twilight movie to see how bad it was. I really don’t have any interest in seeing the new one.

        • shortright; founding member AAAM says:

          i wouldn’t say i LIKED the books, but i enjoyed them. i enjoy the movies the same way… they’re not good and i don’t expect them to be good. i expect to laugh during “serious” scenes and basically sit back and enjoy watching the tweens loosing their minds when robert pattinson is on-screen. it’s worth my $8 to get some good laughs…

          • Nope says:

            Oh come on! 8 bucks? You could have bought something to eat from that! It would last you longer and do something useful too!

          • Default User says:

            It is definitely a good thing I didn’t see Twilight when the teeny boppers where there because I spent most of the movie giggling madly. They would probably have lynched me for it. It was great.

  16. No1askedme says:

    Well, I guess that’s one way to get people to jump out of a moving plane into an area full of people trying to kill them…

  17. jessipup says:

    hihi 5 lincons! =)

  18. A best love story of the year is “The Twilight Saga”. Be a part of this Twilight movie now!
