I Don't Wanna

watch Twilight's last installment.

Unfortunately I now have two people I'm fond of insisting that I do it.

I'm under the impression that if I tell myself it's going to suck I'll be pleasantly surprised whereas I'd be enduring torture if I go in thinking it will be entertaining.

I'm pretty sure I have to finish watching it to satisfy the 20 questions game that will follow.

I haven't seen any of them. The YA books to movies I'm looking forward to are The Hunger Games.

If you can maintain the status of never having seen or read a Twilight story, your life will be somewhat richer than mine.

I take it you don't approve?

I got thinking, "no, they're readable, you're just being lazy." The fourth book was significantly better than the first three though.

I've not been a fan of Vampire critters for a long time.

I think it started when I read Stoker. Probably a tad mature for a seven-year-old.

I slept with garlic under my pillow for a year or so after that.

Rice did some great work. The last Vampire-oriented flick I watched was the one based on her "interview with a Vampire"

IF twilight can compare to that, I might give it a try, but the fascination my grandkids have with it suggests otherwise.

I met a psychic who told me that rubbing garlic over your throat would keep the evil spirits away. I replied "yeah, them and some others."

the deed is done.

Have to say they did well turning Bella into an anorexic.
