I guess you can spot the reference.  And I'm pretty sure someone already did this bad pun. Also I will get sued for it.

I would have chosen the style of the Twilight mang... heam... sorry... graphic novel. But it hurt my eyes so badly I went for this art style instead. And I wa... What do you mean I can't appreciate good shoujo just because I'm a guy? Well if it's good shoujo manga you're talking about, go read Kimi ni Todoke. Then we can talk.

Still on the Twilight saga topic there's no secret that the four respective books, and the movies, are titled Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. Guess how those titles are translated into french. Although it isn't only typical for France, the translators and some Executive Meddling can't help but to give some originality to their work for the sake of linguistical patriotism. Hence the respective translations : Twilight - Fascination, Twilight - Tentation (english: Temptation), Twilight - Hésitation, Twilight - Révélation.
I guess, given the demographic the marketers were aiming, it had to be made clear that the four books are about the same story. However the subtitles don't seem to fit with the original versions. Actually they do. Well... To me at least.
With the first one I was fascinated that there was so much fans for that; especially girls. Then the second one I was tempted to actually see the movie (and read the book). Now with the third I'm hesitating to buy a ticket (and the book). And the fourth which will reveal to me I would simply have lost time and money.
See? The french titles fit!

That pretty much sums up the entire series - everything goes down the drain. Course, I've never bothered to read the books (man, my sister sure has, though), but from what I've seen of the trailers, Ced... I mean, Edward should of quit while he was still in Harry Potter-verse mode.

love the stab at twilight, the cheesiest novel series ever.
that purely works on self insertation where the reader gets putt up with 2 adonises who are based on horror mythos who fight over her.

seriously....bella as a character HAS no discription, you only READ that she's a girl and a loser...thats it.
i'm pretty sure the fangirls just BLANK bella out and put their own names there.
