If I had a list, Twilight would not be on it. I moved past the young adult genre in my late teens and now stick with more age approprite novels. If I want romance, I would much rather read Jane Austin or Emily Emily Brontë.
Wait for the Kristen Stewart part...
It made me giggle.

Well, it would be sad to replace her. However, I don't think teenage girls care ad much about her as she thinks they do. :)
I need to find the director's phone number. I think I can pass for 18 or 19. Ha.

Yeah I really don't think the fans would give a damn if she was replaced. Now all hell would break loose if they tried to replace Rob with a new Edward. Just look at what happened with Taylor Lautner.
I think the 7+ million google hits (and thousands of K-Stewart fan sites) beg to differ. Not to mention everywhere she goes she is mobbed...[INDENT][FONT=Courier New][B]On the Twilight Madness:[/B] “Anywhere we’d go for [I]Twilight[/I] was a psychotic situation. The sound was deafening, and it’s thoughtless, as well… You get a slew of all these bullshit questions like, ‘What’s it like to kiss a vampire?’ and ‘How much do you love Robert?’

[/INDENT]I know it is hard when an actor or actress in your favorite movie thinks the movie sucks, but you can't argue the reality of this situation, which is that she is wildly popular even after she bashes her fans continually on the head with a verbal hammer.
Also, you replace a lead character in any movie and it basically screws up the entire series. Can you imagine Star Wars with a different Princess Leia for Empire Strikes back? Very, very wrong.
[B]
BTW:[/B] Did you guys hear Drew Barrymore will might be directing the third part of the series? I think I'll refrain from comment on that one, lol.
If you say so B...I don't google her so you would know more about that :D ...I just know that the fans are screaming more for Edward than for Bella...most girls who read the books dislike Bella for being a whiney overdependent spoiled brat who is always needing to be saved by Edward, LOL.
You may have a point. I don't think you can compare Carrie Fisher's Leia to Kristen Stewart's Bella. Even I know that's a joke. LOL. Also, Twilight isn't my favorite movie. (That would be a certain Kevin Smith film). As I am no longer a teenage girl, I know longer understand exactly how they think. However, I am still female. I think they would get over it. LOL.

True, I can only speak for myself (and I venture to say that SD and Insider would agree) that the adult fans do not care much about her. The teens...well...they are fickle. They'd revolt for a minute, but could be easily pacified with more Edward. Just announce on the Kristen is leaving while giving away free life size cutouts of Edward...I think the madness would be doable.
Hey B, have you read this article?
[QUOTE][SIZE="1"]Good news fanggirls: Kristen Stewart says there will be a fourth Twilight movie. She can't imagine why there wouldn't be a big-screen adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s Breaking Dawn, the last novel in her young vampire series.
As we all know by now, Twilight was one of last year’s biggest hits, New Moon starts shooting any minute now, and the studio most recently announced they've officially started work on developing Eclipse.
"We all really hope there is going to be a number four," Stewart, 18, told me yesterday afternoon when we sat down to chat in a suite at L.A.'s Sofitel hotel. "I'm pretty confident that the fans aren’t going to all of a sudden lose interest. The only case that a fourth one wouldn’t be made is if all of a sudden people stopped caring, and I really don't think that's going to happen."
And that's not about to happen for Stewart, either. In fact, she'd like to set the record straight about critics who have come to attack her as some sort of Hollywood ingrate who doesn't think very highly of Twilight or its more dedicated—some would say obsessed—fan base.
[B]"I love the fans," she insists. "I feel like I am one of the fans and any direct interaction I've ever had with them has been the most warm and pleasant and enthusiastic. If anything, it's the biggest driving force that could propel you to do something."[/B]
That doesn’t mean all the new attention—OK, hysteria—can't be overwhelming at times. But when she was recently quoted in a magazine as describing some of these experiences as "psychotic," some felt she was taking a dig at the fans. [B]"It's not normal for me to be in a situation that Twilight puts you in," she explains. "It's not personally normal for me to see 5,000 screaming girls. But I'm not criticizing them for being 'crazy' about me. I’m sort of going, "Wow, this is just crazy!' "[/B]
Crazy too are the yet to be proven rumors that she and Robert Pattinson are more than just friends. "Rob and I are great friends," Stewart says. "But I understand why you would assume that when we lean on each other for support, there must be something more…And I'm not criticizing anyone for thinking it either. If anything, they're really perceptive, because they can see a closeness." (Her longtime boyfriend, actor Michael Angarano, isn't fazed by the talk either. "We laugh about it," Stewart says.)
When Stewart wasn’t at the Oscars last month, critics pounced again. Did she dislike Twilight so much that she wasn't willing to support it like Pattinson, who was a first-time presenter? Was she scared the supposed secret romance between her and her costar would be too hard to hide if they appeared together on the same stage on Hollywood's biggest night?
[B]Um, no! She had a very good reason for not being there—she wasn't asked. "If I was invited to the Oscars, I would be there in a nanosecond," she says. "If I got an invitation to the Oscars, I wouldn’t turn it down!"[/B]
Perhaps next year she and Pattinson could sing together at the Oscars? Late last month, the two engaged in some late-night karaoke while promoting Twilight in Tokyo. Stewart and Pattinson covered Elton John's "Your Song." "Rob could definitely do a musical," Stewart says.
Also belting out tunes were Hugh Jackman and director Baz Luhrmann, who were in Tokyo for the local premiere of Australia. When Stewart first arrived at the bar, Pattinson and Jackman were already engaged in a "really, really elaborate ABBA moment.” Later on, Luhrmann joined Pattinson at the mic. "It was really funny seeing Baz Luhrmann and Rob singing a David Bowie song," Stewart says. "It was a talky one so they both could sort of talk to each other, and they were riffing back and forth."
She adds with a laugh, "They were looking longingly into each other’s eyes."
As for Stewart, she starts rehearsals for New Moon next week, followed by about four months of filming in Vancouver and Italy with new director Chris Weitz. Then she's off to play Joan Jett in a biopic about her 1970s all-girl band, The Runaways. Stewart plans to do her own singing. "I don't see any reason not to," she says. "If it’s not going to be Joan, it's going to be me."
Her research included spending New Year’s Eve with Jett. "We were in a little city in Washington and she played through midnight," Stewart says. "And then we spent, like, hours into the morning talking."
On her plate right now are two upcoming indies. In the quirky and very sweet Adventureland, from Superbad director Greg Mottola, she's an angst-ridden coed spending her summer working at her hometown amusement park, where she finds herself torn between a married man (Ryan Reynolds) and a lovable nerd (Jesse Eisenberg). In first-time director Mary Stuart Masterson's The Cake Eaters, she's a high school student with a fatal neurological disorder trying to find love before it's too late.
"I get to do something that literally if I didn't get to do I would implode," Stewart says of acting. "There's really no better position for me to be in right now in my life, and I am entirely grateful."[/SIZE][/QUOTE]
Aww the other thread is closed! Stacee....we're just teasing you. It's totally cool for you to like the books. And yes...I think the same "teasing" occurs when Adults read Harry Potter (and when 25 year old straight dudes claim "Buffy" is their favorite show...) =)
Stacee...you beat me to the punch, I just read that article and ran over here to vevmo to see if it was posted.
RSV...we will forgive you for not being a fan of Twilight. At least I will anyways.

I read Harry Potter as well, and The Inheritance trilogy, and the Artemis Fowl series...I guess that makes me a wannabe teeny bopper...does it really count though if I never actually got to be a teenager in the first place? Either way, I don't care...it is just as bad as watching a bunch of guys chase around a ball in pants tighter than the $2 dollar ******* in Las Vegas wear and then slap each other on the *** as a way of saying "Way to go buddy"

Change the 25 year old straight dude to 33 year old woman.... and I fit all three!!!!
And no one even mentioned NKOTB!!
Just so you know there are millions of adult women that love all these things and there's nothing to feel shameful about. I have no problem in saying that any of these are my guilty pleasures. Except I don't feel guilty about them.
(I know this is off-topic...but that other dreadful thread was closed, so I had to say it here)

amen!
I kinda like watching men in tight pants chase a ball around. ;). So yes, I suppose it is in the same vein. Can you get what my favorite scene in the movie is? THE BASEBALL SCENE! Woo Hoo.
When I'm home later, I have a possible leaked movie poster to share with you. The ladies are going to love it.

I love NKOTB. Everytime they come up on my playlist, I crank my ipod and sing along. Regardless of the fact that my boss' boss has the office next to me and thinks I am a nut job.

It's a dream come true... NKOTB meets Twilight.
You think I can get Rob Pattinson to go to the next concert with me? (I leave this week)
