    Say whatever you want about Twilight but one thing is clear: the soundtracks had no right to slap THIS HARD. The fact that such a goofy franchise got Paramore, Muse, Linkin Park, Radiohead, Bon Iver, Death Cab For Cutie, Grizzly Bear, The Killers, The Black Keys, Florence and the Machine etc etc???

      This is definitively false. Fierce Jacob vs. Edward debates, with suitable squeeing and countersqueeing, were an original part of Twilight fandom long before there were any movies at all, let alone New Moon. So Taylor Lautner's physical appearance was not all there was to the appeal of the character; fans were seeing something in him and making the case for him when he was nothing but cold black words on a page.

      As a twilight fan for so many years, the fact that the vampire lore got pushed back because of romance always irked me after i moved on from the tween idea of "Oh how romantic ect" the Volturi and the history about the werewolfs and vampires is so fascinating!! Its sad that it never got explored better as it deserved, also, the fact that other franchises, actors, ect from other shows mocked twilight and its plot makes me think of how dumb the fact that those other "vampire shows" lack depth and rules, like in the originals, the baby was a tribrid, a witch, werewolf, vampire... like, how does that even work?? the genes must be such a convoluted cesspool of surreality, how can the kid control the magic? (I know the kid doesn't activate her werewolf curse until she's older nor her vampire side) *which is such a stupid scape goat excuse* but they mocked the fact that twilight vampires lived with rules that kept them safe, they had a smart way of living, and the fact that it was not aceptable to change kids makes me think the twilight universe had more brains than tvd or any other show around that time. Without adding the fact that the twilight vampires are practically indestructible and truly frightening with their powers.

    The first one was the best because it was the most "indie" of the saga, it got cringey and annoying when they started to become large scale blockbusters (and I agree with you I miss the blue color palette so much it did a lot to add to the atmosphere and "vibe")

    So apparently the first twilight had a very small budget. To compensate for the lack of set design/wardrobe/ higher quality filmmaking stuff they used a blue tint (kinda like the first two seasons of Rupaul's dragrace).
    Also they totally didn't think the movie would do too well, but definitely didn't think it would be the start of a successful franchise, so everyone in it played up the goofiness and campiness of vampires spending a hundred years redoing highschool in small suburban towns.
    After it was a hit though alot of the cast (particularly Robert Pattinson) were pretty displeased with working on them, especially as studios wanted to make them more "serious" ultimately taking the fun out of twilight, which is really the main thing it had going for it.
    That's my theory as to why everyone after the first one looks so sad and mad all the time. In the first one they look weird, and kind of constipated, but that's just kind of how its written, in the second, third, and fourth one they literally look like their reading the scripts to other movies. Except for Jasper who seems to be the main cast member to really embrace twilight and openly state what a great time he had and how much he loved working on it, etc.
    In the last film the vampires are noticeably smiling and laughing at everything, kind of for no reason, but I think it's because they were excited to wrap up the four year process of making a story none of them were fans of.
    Also I always thought the third book was the worst as the the first movie had already been out, meaning Stephanie Meyers (the author) knew the rest of the series would become movies too. So she tried alot of backstory and attempts at witty dialogue and action but she never really succeeded.
    All of the films however are pretty good examples of good book to movie adaptions. They stick to the main story really well, character depictions are accurate to the book, unnecessary side plots or details are usually left out (like Angela and Bellas job at a sporting goods store), and actual dialog is sometimes said strate from the book, it's just the dialog was never that good to begin with.
    My problem was always that their were such interesting characters and the story at its core, somewhat exiled vampires existing amongst humans, is interesting enough. It's just gone about in the mst mundane and PG-13, 2008 way ever. With two people much older than teenagers constantly staring at each other whilst making bad decisions.
    I missed the actual twilight "hype" of the early 2010s but getting into it afterwards is hilarious just because of all the people that either get embarrassed or weirdly defensive when I bring up the countless plot holes or weird moments. Like how come human blood is so irresistible but the topic of menstruation is never brought up until pregnancy, or how Bella literally sees and hears hallucinations of her ex boyfriend and her first thought is "I should try and hurt myself to see if that happens again." But when you just sit back, laugh it off and except it as what it is, Twilight can be pretty fun.

    my local movie theater had like 5 rooms and on opening night for the last breaking dawn pt2 all of the tickets were sold out to the point where ppl sat on each others laps and on the stairs (im p sure they oversold them) during the fight scene ppl were literally yelling like they were watching a boxing match, jumping in their seats, grown men and teenage girls LITERALLY crying it was insane, keep in mind that this happened in Angola, a country in Africa where English isn't spoken at all and the subtitles were barely working on the screen for some reason so ppl had no idea what was being said half the time. just absolute madness, never experienced anything like it. say what you want about it but twilight pulled numbers only Kpop stuff is capable of nowadays

    In my opinion, the best thing about these movies are their soundtracks. Other than Charlie and Carlisle...
    I mean, Muse, Radiohead, Paramore, Metric... come on. Because of this, Eclipse is almost certainly the best movie - the soundtrack really hits
    Edit: Oh! I mustn’t forget a shout out to one of the best characters in the Twilight Saga - Seth, he is a baby and he is the cutest of the werewolves
