Logical reasons...
why Harry Potter v.s Twilight

*WARNING SPOILERS*

Hi! I'm Cinnominbubble and I have noticed the war between fandoms have been going on for a while with no clear outcome. There is a reason to this-We are stubborn. Twihards want to stick up for Stephanie Meyer, whilst Potterheads want to do the same for J. K. Rowling. But, I have noticed something. Many of our reasonings aren't exactly logical. I mean, not to be offensive, some of our strongest points are downright idiotic!(from both sides) I'd like to come up with some smarter points to help people see our side of the story, whatever that side may be! It would do well to expect mais of these in the future because of all the idiocy going around.(Again, not to be offensive)

I am a fã of Harry Potter but I'd like to acknowledge both sides to the story. People will be yelling at me at the end of this, so in advance, I say sorry for anything offensive.

-First off, I'd just like to say to you twihards, Harry Potter came first in 1998, whereas Twilight came out in 2005, I believe. So J.K Rowling did not copy Stephanie Meyer. I am in possession of both these series' and though Jacob and Sirius both have the same last name, and can both transform into dog-like figures, that is where the similarities stop. Sirius Black is a prisoner escaped from the wizard prison, Azkaban, where he was placed under false pretences. He is an old friend of Harry's parents, and is also Harry's godfather. He is only able to become a dog because he is an animagus, a witch or wizard with the ability to transform into a certain animal at will. He became an Animagus illegally in order to help his friend, Remus Lupin, who was a werewolf, through those bleak nights where there was a full moon. lobisomens only attack humans and so Sirius was only seguro while in his dog form. Jacob Black on the other hand, is not a real werewolf. In Breaking Dawn, his species is called Shape-shifters as Aro says himself. He is only a shape-shifter because it runs in his family and... Yah. That subject all cleared up? I hope so.

-I have heard people saying that Twilight is a better amor story but there's an easy answer to that... Harry Potter isn't a amor story. Sure, if you are into that genre, go for Twilight, but is not fair to say that Harry Potter is a bad book just because it's not a romance novel.

-Yah, ok the Harry Potter characters have flaws! Bella and Rosalie seem to be the only ones with flaws in the entire series, Bella's being her disability to understand what goes on around her sometimes, and Rosalie's being over-the-top-jeolosy... Those don't even seem like flaws! Harry's cast on the other hand, has plenty of flaws. Hermione with her buck-teeth and bad posture, Mrs. Weasley with her over-protectiveness et cetera. But as someone in history said, Flaws are what give your character, well, character! There are plenty of people in Harry Potter with less flaws(Cho, Cedric, et al.) but flaws none the less. So again, if you prefer books where you characters are close to perfect, be my guest and read Twilight. I personally found the characters mais relatable,(mainly Hermione) with their flaws and anger management issues.

Now I know I haven't addressed most of the major questions, but I honestly can't remember anymore(it's 10:06 PM, I just came início from piano! Cut me some slack please...wow I whine a lot!) Feel free to give me feedback, perguntas and requests for my seguinte article(this is my first for Logical Reasons) Go ahead, tell me how bad it is, cant get any worse than what I (or Ralph[inside joke]) tell myself:D I will editar to accommodate all new questions, unless I get an overflow of questions. I will create an artigo for any point, if logical and/or if I understand/know of it. Since this is my first, I don't expect much. Just, if you have any negative comments(Twihards, if I wrote something wrong etc.)tell me in non caps form(don't be angry)

Yours in demigodishness, and all that. Peace Out!
Cinnominbubble >.<
Whoa. Its the final battle already? It seems like this all started a week ago....which it did....so...yeah.
NOTE: I am a Twilight fan, so do not suggest that I think all Twilight fãs are crazy. I also think HP is better than Twilight, though. Just a little.
NOTE:I like HP and T, I am not trying to make fun of either, I'm just having fun with some of the ideas.
NOTE: okay, I'm just putting this note in to build suspense.
NOTE: This is it. The big one. The end. The last one. The one and only. The awesome one. The one that is the end. The climatic one. The one that, if you do not read, will send...

I was typing up an response to iluvtwilight_ for my personal enjoyment when someone reported the pergunta and had it removed. I felt much frustration as what was once a very entertaining activity was reduced to pointlessness. This makes an already depressed person like me mais depressed. Siriusly, I want to committ suicide now...

No, I don't... not yet. But I considered leaving for a brief moment.
But to address this problematic issue. I present: link. O.o What's this? Wikipedia has a specific project devoted to adding humour to the site? OMG, on such a serious site?

Yes, even on such a serious...

So Harry Potter is MUCH better than some stupid book about wimpy girls and sparkly fairies. First off:
ALL the Twilight people are UGLY! I mean seriously, Taylor Lautners muscles are gross and he has ugly man-boobs. He looks like a creep on steroids. and Robert Pattison looks like a bum, and Kristen looks like a drug aggict as Bella. I mean, EW! Who wants to watch a movie with eyesores like them? Harry Potter is WAY better, I mean we have HOT guys, and the girls aren't half bad either! I mean. we have Lucius, Draco, Sirius, and Snape to say the LEAST! Plus like a zillion other eye-candy dudes!...

Discussion regarding Twilight vampiros and reply to Drisina at link

First Part:
The thing is Drisina, one cannot por fiat change a legend to whatever one very well pleases with. vampiros have been in mythology from the 17th century, e.g. Countess Elizabeth Bathory who alledgedly drank her female servants blood to stay young.

So what Stephenie Meyer does is that she takes the vampire-myth, and discards the gorier details and imperfections, replaces them with what she thinks they should be and et voila, we have Edward Cullen.

Now I shall dissect why most people think its a bad thing to do. Recall...

The Volturi and The Death Eaters have a lot in common. This artigo points out the features of The Death Eaters that the Volturi seem to have as well.
Before I begin, you have to remember that The Death Eaters were here first – so the Volturi copied them, not the other way around. Now, the leaders of the Volturi are –unless I’m very much mistaken – Aro, Marcus, and Caius. The leader of The Death Eaters is Lord Voldemort.
The Dark Lord can perform Legilemency, which is rather like mind reading, whatever Snape says. Aro can read minds too. The Dark Lord needs eye contact, Aro needs a...

Severus Snape. The man we all hated. Then loved. Then went back to hating. And then we positively loathed him. But, after, we found out hi story. And, when we knew the truth, what did we feel? Love.
Yes, we ended up loving Severus Snape. Because, once we knew HIS side of the story, it was clear.
Snape had a difficult childhood, which probably led to his disturbed adulthood. But we knew nothing about this until we read The Deathly Hallows. And after we found out, found out exactly what he had suffered through, our emotions changed. Snape is one of the deepest characters in Harry Potter, and...

It’s been a while since i am here in this Harry Potter vs Twilight community. Now, being a die hard Harry Potter fã my vote always go for the same, but I feel por criticizing any of the two of them is insulting the world of story writing. I give it a thought why this whole Harry Potter vs Twilight thing is started and all that comes to me is a memory of mine. At some point I liked Twilight (though not as much as I am obsessed with Harry Potter). Then one dia I had an argument with a friend of mine & naturally I sided with Harry Potter but hearing illogical criticism turned me against...

Ok, time for the other side of the story, in other words, time for another interview with a Twilight “hater”. Her name is Izabella, aka: venvargie! Let’s get started!

Could you introduce yourself please!

Hah, okay well I'm Izabella. But I usually go por Ven on the interwebz. I'm turning 16 in a few months and I don't watch a lot of TV so I don't have a favorito show xD.

What is it that you hate about Twilight?

Well, I hate the sparkling thing the most. Growing up, I watched all kinda of scary vampire filmes with my older brother and they were always the kind that died in the light and vanted...

Heellooooo!!!! I'm feeling rather aleatório today so I thought I'd take a leaf out of Emma's rather large, leather bound book and do a stupid Harry Potter quiz. It's not actually a story, just a aleatório collection of letters put together to form a aleatório collection of words which will, in turn, provide a aleatório collection of potentially amusing sentences. So, enjoy my little freaks!!!
Beware: If you have no sense of humour: DO NOT ENTER!!!
PS. I decided to post this on this spot as well as the HP one because everyone seems so mad at the opposition so I thought they might need a laugh :)

The "jejemon" mania is spreading in my country like mad.

I am a Filipino and Im getting really upset because almost half of the 'jejemon' population is in my country. Even my friends greet me through text messages '.,inN DisZ qKinD oFv m4nN3Rr.,' and Im now confused if they're simply Twihards or just some bunch of lunatics. I am also sad because when I procurar what 'jejemon' means it always come up with explanations that involve my country, am I gonna deny that I am a Filipino? will I curse them all because they're all proud of it? will I beg them to stop the stupidity? I know my options will...

New Moon Review

“…she [Stephanie Meyer] can’t write worth a darn. She’s not very good…” ~ Stephen King

And frankly, I agree. Stephanie Meyer, author of the Twilight series, has gotten her share of criticism, but also many undeserved raving fans. I’m going to take a closer look at her segundo book in this series, New Moon.
New Moon Is quite possibly the just all-around worst book in the series, and I will tell you why.

One, Edward leaves Bella, and she turns into a zombie-like wreck. She abandons all of her friends, instead focusing what little personality she has on hatred for Edward...

All credits go to Das_Mervin's sporking of the Twilight series: link

I just wanted to cut out this snippet and paste it here because I completely agree here. There is no being that's invincible, no matter how unnecessarily overpowered you make them.
----------------------------------------------------
Meyer thinks that humans are limited to two types of weapons: armas and slow-moving bombs. Oh, Meyer. You silly, silly bitch. There is one thing that we humans have been consistently good at since we first picked up a rock and looked speculatively at that tartaruga hiding smugly inside of its shell:...

I cannot stress strongly enough the contempt I have for the franchise of Twilight. Or at least the book. The films are mais funny than anything else, and honestly I don't hate any of the cast an crew working on it. Having read the fonte material, I can see they had little to work with.
Harry Potter, on the other hand... I like. I don't amor it; I'm no Potterhead por any means, however much I might have been in the past. But it will always hold a very special place for me. I grew up with the books and films, leitura and seeing them years apart from each other - growing up along with the characters...
