Reasons Why Harry Potter Trumps Twilight - Part II
- Mrs. Weasley is a strong, proactive mother, while Esme is a weak, passive mother.
- Harry Potter readers did not have to be taken by the hand to understand the series' ending. Twilight readers, however, were given a play-by-play by Edward. Gee, thanks for thinking we're morons, SM!
- Fred and George Wesley: funny, loyal, brave redheaded twins ♥
Jane and Alec: sadistic pawns of the volturi... creepy. - Quidditch v Baseball. Come on, Stephenie. Make up your own sport.
- Harry is not a possessive, creepy (albeit SCRUMPTIOUS!) stalker.
- Ginny Weasley can live without Harry. And does, for a good portion of the series.
- Harry Potter is getting its own theme park in Orlando, Fl. What kind of theme park could Twilight offer? "Here, stand in the rain in a dumpy town in Washington. Enjoy!"
- The villains in Harry Potter all have a backstory. The villains in Twilight are simply surly, bloodthirsty vampires. Yay, imagination... NOT.
- There are numerous modes of transportation in Harry Potter, including apparition, Port Key, broomstick and Floo Powder. Twilight characters prefer "driving" and "running". What's up with that?
- JK Rowling's world includes new terms that are strictly applicable to the wizarding world (aka, the Harry Potter Series). Stephenie Meyer has a 50-word vocabulary, comprising such gems as "velvet", "beautiful", "dazzle" and "silky". *rolls eyes*
