Twilight Stole From Friday the 13th?

First of all, trust me when I say I would never give you something from Twilight without being able to make it awesome.

Listen to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fS_YGbDCg3s

And then listen to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AD-WSYyoV08

I rest my case.

DIS IS RONG, EDWURD.

Aw, the Carter Burwell score was the only redeeming part of that movie.

That, and the gaysian. And the disco-ball skin of a killer. And RPattz's amusingly flat face. And the fiftyzillion times KStew bit her lower lip. And the terrible wigs. And the even more terrible makeup...

"Stuck Here Like Mom"? Wat.

Yesterday at school someone brought in one of those standup cardboard cutouts of Robert Pattinson (as a brooding, sunken-cheeked Edward Cullen of course) and lugged it around to all their classes to position it in the back of the room. All I can say is those cardboard things are horribly frightening to catch in your peripheral vision. It got like fifty double-takes every time someone entered the room: WHAT IS THAT MAN DOING THERE oh hey ed

The Friday one sounded a lot faster and with the drum action as a counter, I found the score grating. The slower one had more of an attraction to me and I could enjoy it without having to know the story behind the music.

They do sound similar to each other but not enough to convince me that Twilight stole it. As Cairn said, I the Twlight version was nicer to listen to. The whole Twilight series has become a fad, in my opinion, more than HP with Edward Cullen . . .

What story?

Erethas, the Twilight one might be nicer to listen to because it's an orchestra and not electronic Nintendo music.

I'm guessing "Twilight" is either a movie or a television show. I've never heard of this before now, but I'm thinking I may be checking the music store very soon.

Well, I don't know. Lots of people really like electronic Nintendo music.

You haven't heard of the Twilight/sparkly vampire(/fairy) fad? That's...an incredibly good thing. Stay away from it. Stay far away. It's quite possibly the worst series of books ever written, which are being made into quite possibly the worst films ever made.

It...I just...I don't... I DON'T EVEN... what Tara said.

Don't read it for yourself, ever. Let someone read it for you. And educate you in the process.

That's...that's incredible. There is some language there, so be warned.
