So the wife is having me go out this Friday night at midnight to pick up the latest (and, thankfully, last) Twilight movie. What's worse, she's having a Twilight Marathon that day, and she's MAKING ME watch them ALL with her. And since she accompanied me to WizardWorld last weekend (and was able to snag another Walking Dead Exclusive thanks to her presence), I can't really protest. I'm not even going to be able to make snide comments! No distractions, either--no comics, no internet. It's going to be a long day....

I would have a backup bottle of liquor stashed somewhere just in case she discovers the first one! Good luck, let us know how it turns out.

Learn from my mistake - DO NOT refer to the last two movies as "Breaking Wind" in the presence of your beloved... It doesn't matter if it's 50 Cents or 50 Dollars - if you list it as NM it better be NM.Xylob's Most Wanted:    G.I.Joe Special Missions TPB 2 Tales from the Transformers Beast Wars: Critical Mass Transformers: Timelines #3 - either cover, no preference.

Yep, today's the day. Busy getting orders packed before she wakes up. I think I'll go hide in my garage, maybe she'll think I'm still at work....

Okay, we're in the middle of New Moon (the second one). Which is probably the most boringest one of all (so that's really saying something). With the most boringest looking werewolves in all of movie history. And the most boringest ending of any movie. Where nothing keeps on happening...

It killed me ever wanting to see any vampire anything, ever.

It killed me ever wanting to see any vampire anything, ever. Not sure if that's a positive or negative. Because Blade the series was so good that you don't ever want to watch anything vampire ever again, or it was so bad that it turned you off to the genre entirely?

I have been dodging the Twilight bullet for years! I hope you survived.

I got through about the first hour of the first movie before I couldn't watch anymore. Who would have thought that a movie about vampires versus werewolves would be so boring?

This is my thought exactly. I don't really mind the concept, and I can even get past the wooden acting and Taylor Lautner not having a shirt on for no good reason most of the time. It's just that it's soooo borrring!! Not to give away the ending to the latest one, but it was actually getting good at the end and finally being pretty awesome. But then--nope, not really! Ah well...the women love it, I guess....

The Twilight spoof movie was at least entertaining and watchable.
