Postby Sagorika » Fri Aug 12, 2011 6:31 am

I know there's been a ton of debate on this so I was wondering if I could bring it up here. Rules for this thread are:
FEEL FREE TO EXPRESS YOUR OPINION, (GOOD OR BAD)
NO RAGING OUT OR BULLYING ALTHOUGH FEEL FREE TO DO WHATEVER YOU WANT
MAKE SURE THERE AINT BLOOD ON THE TABLE
thanks! hope you guys figure out in the end!
btw: i luv BOTH so im not takin sides. :rofl:

Please, it's not even a contest. Harry Potter.

Twilight is just all kinds of fucked up. Harry Potter is awesome, with MUCH better female characters than Bella who should've been checked into a mental hospital a long time ago.

You can usually judge the quality of a work by the intelligence of its fan base.

In this case, Harry Potter is the clear winner.

Yet another example of why Harry Potter is better.

Besides, Ginny over Bella any day.

Shouldn't this be a poll? Oh wait, we already know who's going to win. Twilight Sparkle, the star pupil of Princess Celestia...wait...what? We're talking about the book? Oh, that settles it then. Harri Putar FTW.

I'm sorry, but vampires don't sparkle, and Remus Lupin is the better werewolf all four paws down.

Congrats, you just gave me my daily dose of lulz.

On that note, however, I don't like Lupin as a werewolf. He just didn't sell it in my opinion.

(pimp slaps)

Son, you're going to take that back now, alright? Lupin was really one of the few characters in that series I could stand.

A different opinion on the internetwebs? Oh, this just won't do.
Yeah, I didn't really enjoy Lupin as much as others. I preferred Seamus, believe it or not. I found him quite funny since book one.

Harry Potter is about how with friendship, love, magic, and a bit of luck, you can take care of any evil that threatens humanity. Twilight is about how girls are completely useless unless they have a boyfriend.

There is no need to contest, Harry Potter is clearly for bright people, Twilight is for people that have the saddest life, sitting on a dark bog during their life :!:

Is it even worth pointing out the sheer factual errors in that image?

How can you compare the two?
Fan of Transformers?|Fan of Star Trek?|你会说中文吗?
Geopolitics: Internationalist, Pan-Asian, Pan-African, Pan-Arab, Pan-Slavic, Eurofederalist,
  • For the promotion of closer ties between Europe and Russia but without Dugin's anti-intellectual quackery.
  • Against NATO, the Anglo-American "special relationship", Israel and Wahhabism.

Sociopolitics: Pro-Intellectual, Pro-Science, Secular, Strictly Anti-Theocractic, for the liberation of PoCs in Western Hemisphere without the hegemony of white liberals
Economics: Indifferent
