What sucks, yet makes money? It completely terrible, yet adored by millions? An internet joke and a best seller? Something guys hate and girls love?
If you were thinking about cats, you and I are on the same page. Oh, you thought I meant the Twilight movies? Yes, that applies here too.
Another Twilight movie has descended upon us, but gratefully it is the last movie. I have to admit, I have seen the first movie Twilight when it was in theaters. It was a painful experience. I was laughing so hard it caused my sides to ache. Since then I have seen these movies as one bad joke. The acting is stale while the pace is too long for its own good.
The main character is a shell of a person with no real goal other than to bang a vampire. The villain does everything to try and stop that from happening. Everyone in between tries to convince everybody else that they are stupid for trying this. All meanwhile the love interest doesn't want to bang the main girl because he is 108 years old and she is 16.
This movie is a great abstinence tool for young girls in that it shows you don't need sex for a relationship, but then again it also says to fall in love with a vampire and meet his family, all of whom would suck your blood at a moments notice. So the moral of the story is "If you can't eat it, marry it."
As for why it makes money? Simple. It's cheap to make with cheap effects and has a cult following large enough to form an army. They will buy tickets even if it sucks and they will not admit that it sucks because it is "their movie" while everyone else just doesn't understand.
