Technically Speaking, Wonder Woman Is Bulletproof
She's not as invulnerable as Superman, but small arms fire can't hurt her a bit. It just . . . nudges her. A little bit. Enough to be noticeable. And enough to annoy her.
Photoshop artist Kerry Callen rewrites classic comic books to show funny scenes. In the past, he's created animated .gifs of famous covers, depicted Batman as a hoarder, and shown what Superman is trying to do in his first appearance.

Give it a break.
Yes, I read the entire first book. It was difficult for me (as someone who enjoys reading quality literature). I won't be reading any more of the series. I don't care about the films. It would take some damn talented actors and a massive re-write to get that "story" to any semblance of watchable.
One of my profs last semester posted the there/their/they're infographic on her door and said we now had no excuse for what horrible grammar was being displayed in our papers. Well, "our" in the general sense. I don't remember ever being graded poorly for grammar, but then again, I don't remember much of that class anyway.
Plus, the way she tries to explain her vampires and the way they work with science...just no. Doesn't make a lick of sense. Not to mention that abortion that is their kid. I don't remember its name beyond it being stupid and long and the nickname was some lake monster. Champ? Don't know, don't care.
and I don't like Star Wars either, but at least that's a story that more people can relate to and isn't just the author's wet dream (though I'm sure some of it is...>.>)
My 12-year-old: I like Twilight.
My 13-year-old: Whatever. I'll see the movies so I'll know what my sisters are talking about.
I can't understand what ANY middle-aged woman would get out of this. Even the movie stars are unattractive. But I see why young girls like it. I'll just be glad when they all move on to other things.
She likes the books, too, sort of. She reads romance novels too. She is under no illusions about that stuff being "literature" but, hey, I read old comic books sometimes, so who am I to complain?
Kinda weird about middle aged women being obsessed with it though. And unlike Star Wars (which I am not a huge fan of), Twilight is just a romance story, with vampires. Star Wars is, like, SPACE OPERA, man.
I think if I were still a young teen/pre-teen, I'd def be in to everything. Not as much as some, but I'd probably enjoy them.
Now at age 30 though.... the movies were SO mind numbingly bad. I can't even imagine how terrible the books are.
I groan whenever my cousins starts going on and on about it all. She's 27yo and a mother of 3 :\
On a related note, it's a shame Oatmeal didn't read the rest of the series, because from what I hear, there's a baby ripped from Bella by the vampire dude because it's eating her from the inside (?), and as soon as it's born the werewolf guy falls in love with it and chooses it as his mate. WHEN IT'S BORN.
Twilight: One girl's decision between bestiality and necrophilia, as a werewolf discovers his true pedophilic self.
No matter what some people think of the Twilight books/films, the whole ''let's trash Twilight'' at any opportunity meme is still unreal to me.
Make fun of it. Parody it. Whatever. But the fact that there are so many of you out there SO willing and ready to bash Twilight makes me think that there is more going on than just the supposed lack of ''qaulity' of the stories.
I have heard so many people rave about the Charlaine Harris vampire stuff. I decided to read one. It sucked. Nothing original about it. And the detailed descriptions of the hard sex that the main character has with the vampire were totally offputting. Much prefer the romanticism of Twilight.
But, no, everyone loves the Harris stuff.
Makes no sense to beat up one author for her failings as a writer when another gets a pass for the same failings.
