Update 10/14: Honestly, this post is just as good of a 'judgement' against Stephenie Meyer and it is shorter and more recent. Here's a splash:
One of the most hypocritical statements ever made: “The female voice is something that has become more and more important to me as I’ve worked in the film industry,” Stephenie Meyer regarding the new Twilight series’ coming to Facebook.
WHAT A JOKE!! Putting aside the fact that she completely ignored the cries of pain from her various fanbases when these extreme scandals started (see email in the link above) - when she could have said something to help support Kristen, Robert and their heartbroken fans in the millions...
She deserves a spanking (not the fun '50 Shades of Grey' kind) for being such a PIG to the world AND her fans - both those who love her and those she abandoned. (And in my opinion - Stephenie Meyer abandoned her movie fans in 2012 in the same EXACT way she abandoned her book fans in 2008.)
I just found out about these events on 5/18/14 (and in my own hometown!!) Fifty Soiree – ‘Classy’ events based on the 50 Shades of Grey novels to benefit survivors of abuse. As a survivor of abuse myself, AND as someone who can see how these STUPID rough-sex books could be ‘inspired’ by The Twilight Saga; do any of you have ANY IDEA how OFFENSIVE the very thought of this happening, IS to me?!! As if Twilight being sickening wasn’t enough. Coat it in as much icing and pretty flowers as you want. Pig slop is still pig slop no matter what.

Actual Post Date: 1/19/14 - I wrote this before I realized how many NEW Anti-Twilight Fans were developing since the movies were made - and then WHY they don't like this blog. ;)
Author John Green "We must strike down the insidious lie that a book is the creation of an individual soul labouring in isolation. We must strike it down because it threatens the overall quality and breadth of American literature," he said. "They hold me up as an example but I am not an example of publishers or bookstores extracting value because without an editor my first novel, Looking for Alaska, would have been unreadably self-indulgent…”
This article is actually about Self-Publishing, but this statement by him is the DIRECT REASON WHY Stephenie Meyer's writing failed for so many people. Because her PROFESSIONAL publishers didn't ‘professionally’ edit Twilight NOR give it the kind of treatment it should have been given. Yeah, that is partially Steph's fault for digging her heels in (like an amateur author would). Twilight could have been one of the BEST fairytales ever written. But all it did was HURT its own too-impassioned fanbase (on multiple occasions) and DIVIDE both them and the WORLD.
This blog is information overload on The Twilight Saga, Stephenie Meyer, the OVER-obsessions of (especially older) Twilight Fans - and of course, Robsten's apparently neverending publicity assaults on both them and their fanbase. I almost published a book about it - yeah, it's VAST. In fact, you Twihards can thank Nutty Madame (see 1/5/14 update below in my ‘Introduction’ post) for my most recent decision to cancel writing this book one last time (although these blogs will be staying up).
Need a good reason to forgive all the (usually older) TwiJERKS out there? (I’ve been fighting with them for awhile and I don’t have one problem highlighting them up here like this.) This post not only explains their ridiculous over-obsessions, but it is the best argument yet for Twilight Fans to sign the petition. Also, this post most thoroughly debunks The Twilight Saga.
The above posts were never meant to be mean (although they sure seem like it to Twihards); but they were the ones that 'literary experts' were VERY interested in when I started pitching the book this last time around. Only read them if you dare - and the links that jet off of them, those are part of the fascination with them.
Btw, don’t count on long-estranged Anti-Twilight fans to be in here – Oh no, *I* am a disjointed Twilight MOVIE Fan which means I’m a NEW upset Twihard. That means that absolutely NO Twilight Fans like me – not those who love it no matter what, nor those who could just puke all over it. (Here is a detailed explanation for why you don’t see them in here.)
Why? Cuz I just HAPPEN to ALSO be a Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson fan. LoL! Maybe I’ll share one someday, those conversations have been MORE frustrating than with current semi-crazy Twihards. Talk about some seriously MEAN people – some of them, anyway. It’s amazing what a bitter obsession can do to you (no, they won’t acknowledge their obsessions anymore than current obsessing Twihards will – yeah, sad all the way around from my perspective).
Many of the old gang have LONG moved onto other FAR more interesting things like becoming HUGE Anti-Kristen-Stewart and Anti-Robert-Pattinson fans; and they have been having SO MUCH FUN bashing at you Twihards throughout these cheating scandals.
PLUS, I get to watch all you “I Love Twilight No Matter What” fangirls CRY & FIGHT (or at least try to). You are far more embarrassing now than you have ever been.
This
is yet another complaint on my long list against Stephenie Meyer. There was a
HUGE DUSTUP when her books were first published by book readers (especially
after Breaking Dawn); but somehow they managed to MISS all of their complaints
(see long list of side links) and produce The Twilight Saga 'as close to' as
written as possible.
The
really weird thing is that the MORE I learn about the obsessions of current
Twilight AND Anti-Twilight FANS out here in Internetland; the more NORMAL *I*
appear to be - with the exception that I am somehow one of the FEW UNWILLING
Twilight Fans (no, thank God, I'm not the 'only' one) who refuses to stand by and say or do nothing.

If Stephenie Meyer had admitted her HUGE literary
mistakes and apologized
back then - here’s what could have happened instead of the harmful TwiRide so
many of us ended up with:
1) The books could
have been CORRECTED via the movies instead of so many people HATING them OR
being accidentally OVERLY-obsessed about them. (Oh
yeah, it could have been done - by someone who actually
'gets' why girls & women love this pretty fairytale so damn much.)
2) People like ME
wouldn't have had to loose any VALUABLE time at all due to HER 'mistakes'. (I've
been in here since November 2011, and I was spinning before that. No, *I* have
not appreciated my TwiRide at all.)
3) The Twilight
Fanbase would NOT have been beaten up this HARD for this long because of the
'cheating' scandal. In FACT, it might not have EVER HAPPENED IF Steph had acted
like an ADULT instead of a smug, obviously-amateur author flipping off HER OWN
FANS!!!
Thank you Stephenie Meyer for ALL the divisions & chaos you have caused to your own fanbase and the world throughout the years. I, for one, can’t imagine how you sleep at night.
As your most recently engaged and enraged Twihard – count on me doing EVERYTHING I can to keep this aspect of your involvement (and NON-involvement) in perspective UNTIL you and/or your damn ARMY of desperate housewives figures out a way to repair the damage you’ve done to the WHOLE WIDE WORLD – including your beloved lead actress & actor AND their heartbroken FANS who have been CONTINUING to pay for YOUR MISTAKES since the day you decided to DENY them.
Stephenie Meyer didn’t MEAN to make us all this crazy… But the TABLOIDS DO, for MONEY!
The obsessions of Twilight fans - along with Hollywood's manipulation tactics - is what is making so many TwiLadies so unreasonable and mean OBVIOUSLY. You cannot tell me that so many of you are STILL this ugly (or heartbroken) inside after all this time.

This
is my crowning jewel out of all the stuff I’ve written about The Twilight Saga
– my fanfiction corrective rewrite, The Twilight
Saga: ReVamped & ReWolfed. Just the first chapter is complete; the rest is a summary –
takes a couple hours for me to read through it all.
YEAH,
I love this pretty fairytale and this fanbase. I really wish I could respect
the amateur author, more. Her SILENCE throughout this scandal has been so
frustrating. Stephenie Meyer COULD have said something to HELP cool fans’ emotions as all
this was coming down or at some point in between. And YEAH, I gave her a NICE
heads-up when all this started. (I CAN be nice!)
She
has done absolutely nothing but ignore me and every other estranged Twihard who
came before me. As far as I am concerned – with what happened to her fanbase at
the END and continues ON and on and ON – Stephenie Meyer didn’t deserve one red
cent out of her efforts and neither did her professionally-negligent publisher or production company.
The ONLY good thing we got out of Twilight was the actors &
actresses – ALL of them. And they ALL continue to be judged and mistreated because of YOUR MAD
Twilight over-obsessions.
This is the final judgment of this Twihard regarding The Twilight Saga. And, as far
as I can tell - *I* am the only person on this planet REMOTELY qualified to
judge it so harshly. The ENTIRE ‘Twilight Experience’ has been NOTHING but a
bawl-fest and/or cat fight from beginning to end.
I
was really looking for an experience more like Harry Potter or Star Trek or
Girl with the Dragon Tattoo or Avengers or The Hunger Games… etc., etc., etc.
*I*
cannot BEGIN to express my incredible disappointment and disgust with every
single Twihard AND Anti-Twihard over the age of 30. You’ve been nothing but NEGLIGENT yourselves
– and selfish and petty and MEAN and a
SH*TLOAD of other things.
Thank you SO MUCH for the memories, Twilight Fans.
That’s
basically what you’ve been allowing the
tabloids & paparazzi to do to your fanbase through your beloved lead actress & actor - for YEARS!!!
No Respect. AT. ALL.

(Ignore the Twilight Petition in here – it’s irrelevant now.)

Yeah, I know what I’m talking about in this
blog.
Not ALL of us appreciated the ridiculous obsession
‘accidentally’ shoved down our throats.

Watch it if you can – and this is my YouTube

The very first review is the most relatable for us all.

The problem with Twilight ( T ) is not KStew or Robert nor Taylor or anyone: it is that its a Soap Opera. From beginning to end it had a daytime Soap-feel, and that means cheesiness, cheap. I liked T enough to watch without being frustrated and because I am not a weak-minded hater, but overall it just wasn't that good. The second problem is that Twihards (?) make a huge deal of these movies (and books), when most of us who appreciate good film making or good productions don't. It's not about only about T, for us responsible ones, but Harry Potter (HP)was also bad. And easily worse was The Hunger Games (THG). However, pop culture can't target every single White actors or such movies: they prefer one or more over the already target one(s). Pop culture is bias, based on Prejudice, Bigotry, which is all Bullying. More so, pop culture is mostly driven by those ages tweens to early 20s. Mostly but surely not only. So, because kids are not fully developed mentally, they many times poorly Select what is good (great sales) and which not to (poor sales). But if kids wanted to showcase they are smart or responsible, they would also praise and support movies with OLDER actors and music from OLDER ones. This is where older people take offense. Kind of. They really can't do much about it because they have families, work (sometimes two jobs), and other activities which help them and their families, while kids mostly only have school/homework and spend tons of time on "social" websites and networks (which IS making them dumber). There is NO balance in kids. Mostly. If they were to show such balance, as in supporting other artists, then most movies and singers would be doing well overall and not just kid (or for kids) movies and music. Again: it is POP CULTURE that decides who will be big and who wont. Pop culture IS BIAS (Bigotry, Prejudice, Bullies).
ReplyDeleteI hate Bullies, I hate discrimination based outside reasonable values or standards. Pop culture is the "hate" Selectively targeted at Selena Gomez all over online and certain music shows, and its the reason why most Hispanics don't do well in the entertainment business. Most people who proclaim they hate Bullying, as in on personal levels (and the painful results from Bullying we see and read on the news), hate the hate lobbed at their idols, BUT TURN AROUND AND BULLY SELENA GOMEZ. If Bullies are going to cry "stop Bullying", then for goodness sake CRY IT OUT FOR EVERYONE WHO IS BULLIED. While KStew, Bieber, Miley, get "hate" and are Bullied, their BIG movies and Huge concert sales makes up for it. At least a bit. But Selena Gomez is hard pressed to see more than four or five such Big venues as other artists get in most of theirs. Pop culture is Selective. Its Prejudice. Bigotry.

Thanks alot, James. I have in fact went off on a ramble about Selena Gomez and that damn 'sonogram' that came out for an 'S. Gomez'. Tabloids are pigs, and they need to be put in their place in this technologically-uninhibited space.
DeleteNice, well-thought-out comment. Thank you so much.
