Reasons Why Harry Potter Trumps Twilight - Part III
- Hermione didn't need to jump off a cliff to get Ron's attention.
- The Yule Ball was a million times better than a lame high school prom.
- Butterbeer, Chocolate Frogs and even Hagrid's rock cakes sound more appetizing than deer, bear or mountain lion blood... *shutters*
- In Harry Potter, all wizards and witches have access to magic. In Twilight, only some vampires have magical abilities (mind-reading, psychic abilities, mind "blocking", fire/water/earth/wind control... you know, the usual) which APPARENTLY stem from some connection they had when they were human. What kind of human can control the elements?!
- Harry evolves throughout the whole series in a way that when he acts like a prat in Book V, readers are still inclined to show understanding. Bella remains a prat throughout the "saga."
- Speaking of "saga", "The Harry Potter Series" is not a pretentious title. "The Twilight Saga" is ridic and full of undeserving slef-flattery.
- "The real difference is that Jo Rowling a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can't write worth a damn. She's not very good." Wise words, Stephen King.
- A lightening scar is more bad-ass than "sparkly skin."
- Harry Potter is not just a love story.
- In terms of the immortality/mortality theme, Harry Potter's presentation is more imaginative and astonishing. Twilight's is... well it falls flat, really.
