Answered HP Rocks! Twilight sucks!

I've commented on two Twilight vs Harry Potter poll-things, and I've just come up with this:

Why the hell are they even being compared? They're both popular, sure, but they have nothing to do with each other! Harry Potter is for all ages, all genders, and about magic! Twilight is for teenage girls and some guys (who were probably introduced to it by a teenage girl.) It centers on ROMANCE, not fighting an evil dark lord. Compare Twilight with Titanic or Romeo and Juliet or something, because that makes more sense.

BUT... I'm going to side with Harry because of this:

Twilight's main character is Bella. She fell in love with Prince Charming, will absolutely not let him go, spent half a book angsting over him, became Princess Charming in the fourth book, and had her own Mary Sue family.

Harry Potter's main character is -duh- Harry Potter. HE fell in love, though not immediately, because he is struggling with his own needs and what the world wants. He has to push the person he loves aside, but he didn't try to rip himself to shreds for her. He's a little saner than that. He's forced to transform from a sheltered, abused boy to a strong, confident hero.

Harry Potter grew up. We grew up with him. Bella Swan fell in love and went through tons of physical and mental torture for it. We fell in love (with her story) but we could never relate to her as we do with Harry, and HE's the one living in a nonexistant world!

    I don't even know how anyone could compare them. The are like night and day. They are both excellent series.

    I really wish people would stop comparing them.

    They're both really good. Harry Potter and Twilight are extremely different types of stories. Fair enough compare, hp and lord of the rings but these two films can't be compared. hp is about a boy learning and growing through school with his 2 mates and trying to kill THE ONE WE DO NOT NAME, where twilight is about a girl in love with a monster. i like them both. but twilight stayed with me much longer than the events in hp.

    Answered HP Rocks! Twilight sucks!

    srry to burst edward cullen fans' bubbles BUT a) he is FICTION b) if he was real he would have bella swan and NOT you c) the book is NOT all about edward and it makes me sick you only like a great series for this one character who, quite frankly, isnt that hot.

    with twilight you can always tell whats coming next and its just another love story or another vampire story, either way. The vampires and even goths or anything, i mean ssshht, really?!

    harry potter will still be loved in the year 300, mark my words, twilight is like 'busted', those 'hot' guys that made music that EVERYONE loved. nowadays you can barely meet someone who likes them and whilst people who were AROUND AT THE TIME remember them, they can be caught alive trashing the CDs.

    reply directly id like to hear your opinions on what i have to say.
  • raves +1 -2 [-] ally replied to Teghead
    hey shut up hp is fiction 2 so get a life you nerd ...holy crap dude if you compare goth 2 vampires your a dam fool..l.ok and it isnt just bout i love story...um get the clue hp movies that suk already and 4 you 2 say hp will still be loved in 300 years you are wrong.
  • raves +1 -1 [-] Lady-DeathBright replied to ally
    You need to get a life! All I've seen you do is bully us. I am a goth and I don't need you to ride my back because I don't like Twilight. Get out! NO ONE WILL EVEN RECALL TWILIGHT ONE DAY!

    YOU "SUK" and YOU NEED TO GET HELP!
  • raves     [-] mostlyemolove replied to Teghead
    not all of us only like twilight because of the guys! I liked the whole story. and yes it is fiction but so is harry potter. and vamps and goths are two different things. Vamps rule!!! and what is so great about harry potter?
  • raves +1   [-] lalala replied to Teghead
    i think you are sooo right.. i mean yeah i have read twilight and i gotto admite... it was good... but not even close to harry potter. Twilight is cliche and every1 writes abt vampires but harry potter is an original thought... twilight is so predictable too

    i totally agree with you.. HP and twilight is two different stories.. why cant we just compare twilight to titanic or romeo and juliet... (2 people fallen inlove with two different worlds - and figthing for it!).. it will make sense.. right?!
  • raves +2   [-] ally replied to Xinea
    you 2 you all should read the book instead of listeng 2 the dumbass people who are telling you guys this crap cauz its all wrong you know nothing about IT so shut your mouth already....TWILIGHT IS AMAZING SO DEAL WITH IT!!!!!!!!!
  • raves +1 -1 [-] Lady-DeathBright replied to ally
    Twilight is more like...a girly story that really dosn't have a story line. Sorry but I dislike drama and that's all the book is.
  • raves +1   [-] mostlyemolove replied to Xinea
    In a way I totally agree with you. (even though I answered the question) I mean everyone will have there opinions and it seems people are just getting mad over it. I say just don't try to compare them. really they are two complete different stories but this is when I disagree I like twilight more but thats my opinion. Harry potter was really good in the first few books but I think they started making way to many books about him. but i totally agree that they really don't need to be compared
  • raves +1   [-] Xinea replied to mostlyemolove
    Yes, I see how it's easy to think "Omg, again??" whenever something Harry Potter comes out. It's probably a good thing Stephanie Meyer stopped her series at 4. She'd really be pushing her luck with the book that's told in Edward's point of view.
