Poll: Twilight honored among "Exorcist" and "The Shining" at Academy Awards

[Deadpewl]

You heard me, "Twilight" was honored in a horror movie montage that included such films as "Jaws", "Silence of the Lambs", "Friday the Thirteenth", "The Shining", "The Exorcist", and "Rosemary's Baby" among others.

As another personal slap in the face of horror movie fans, the tribute to horror films was actually presented on stage by the two stars of the second Twilight film.

Your thoughts?

Well it clearly horrified you enough to make this thread, right?

Not the film, but the ooze in the brains of the film maker that made the montage.

I don't see what the big deal is. It's just a movie. Some people like it, some don't. So what? Most horror movies are frankly crap anyway, there's only a tiny handful of genuinely good ones.

I can tell that you've never seen twilight. Otherwise you would see why its a problem that its included among the best HORROR movies.

You know, maybe if we ignore them, they'll go away.

C'mon lads and lasses, let's make a serious effort of this: ignore Twilight into nonexistence. Don't just not give a damn, ACTIVELY PRETEND IT DOES NOT EXIST. When fans proselyte over its greatness, they are clearly speaking gibberish, because no such thing exists.

Plus, it'll be damn funny watching them turn varying shades of purple.

But its so fuckin' hard! its like trying to ignore a fly while it keeps flying by your head and buzzing by your ears.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEERE'S... Edward?

... actually, that image is pretty scary.

How is Twighlight in anyway a horror?

I'm glad i don't watch awards..

 

[Hazy]

I think I get it now... Twilight is the biggest troll since Kyoto Animation... It explains everything!

Fixed

OT: *Facepalm*
Really?

Twilight is not a horror movie. The fact that it was honored among the greatness of Silence of the Lambs is an insult.

You like Twilight? Fine by me.
But NEVER compare the two.

 

[ProtoChimp]

WHAT. If anything it's a romance. There's nothing scary about that fucking film. I know because I... *sigh* I secretly like it. Please don't hit me.

Well Twilight was an atrocity, but did anyone catch that they put a brief clip of Young Frankenstein in the mix? That in and of itself almost makes up for it.

ROFL!


God, wot a sad, sad day for quality filmmakers/writers everywhere...

 

[Halceon]

It is metahorror. Its existence is horrifying, not its content.

 

[ZombieGenesis]

I never listen/agree to any type of awards or reviews...

Be it music,games or movies, or art.

Bad movies like this get this type of praise.
Boring chart music gets "best album of whateverwank".
Any game with a famous brand getsa 10/10.....
Random modern art bullcrap gets a turner prize.

Reviewers,Critics and Judges these days you cant trust.

Pretty much 100% this.

 

[CuddlyCombine]

I don't know what's worse: the fact that Twilight got that spot, or the (lack of) humour in most of these posts.

 

[Darkwolf9]

It's not even the same type of movie. I'd slap my kid around if he/she were afraid of twilight.

 

[ZombieGenesis]

Still Twilight seems to breed stupidity. For one thing on the WritersBeat forum someone posted a letter send to Universal studios claiming that The Wolfman was ripping off Twilight.

It's a miracle I have even a trace of sympathy for humanity.

 

[stabnex]

Since when the hell did Teen Romance qualify for horror status? And they were giving the reward to themselves from themselves?!

Yet another reason Twilight==shit.

 

[TOGSolid]

at least aliens and Evil Dead 2 were in the montage.

Oh, and I call utter bullshit on the Hurt Locker winning best picture.

I'm really hoping you were rooting for Inglorious Basterds like I was. If you were hoping Avatar to win, you and I are going to have a fight on our hands. *gets his rapier ready*
