You ladies replying to this thread seem to forget the audience you're dealing with here - idiot males. You also forget when you suggest that Kristen Stewart (Bella) has a sizable fan base that most of these droolers don't know her actual real name, but can probably tell you when she turned one age or another. She's "that hot b**** from those sh***y vampire movies," to them, and nothing more. Most of these guys can't count to 10 off their fingers, let alone understand that sometimes a person will watch a movie for the characters, the story, the romance. Why? Because, as men, they can't even begin to fathom such things as character, story, romance. They don't understand romance - only the grunting snarl of sexual aggression. That's as far as their pea-brains take it. Now, as someone who was born with a penis, I do my best not to live up to that kind of reputation, and I for one am a big fan of the TWILIGHT books; not so much the 1st movie, but the 2nd looks very much improved.
