Park Life 71 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Twilight 2 These films aren't meant for people approaching middle age are they? I find myself wanting to punch the screen. Kids in these films (actually 24 year olds) fall into 2 categories: 1. Mean and moody serious adult type kids who have the weight of the world on their shoulders. The question of whether they should date one boy or another (or neither) is treated like it's the weightiest issue anyone has ever struggled with in the history of the planet. It's as if the makers are pondering if there can be a two state solution in the middle east, but films like Lebanon actually have more of a sense of humour than these little shits. 2. Fucking idiots only interested in shopping and prom dresses. Treated with disdain by the film-makers, their lives aren't interesting enough to play any actual part in the film. They're just there so the main character looks popular, rather than being the outsider, billy no-mates she really would be in reality if if she went on like she does. I think you're supposed to root for the miserable kids. They get all the lingering slow motion and arty farty 360 degree shots. Teenagers will root for them too, aspiring to have grown up relationship type problems as they tend to. Personally though I would prefer to spend a bit more time with the group of kids that were having a bit more of a laugh. They seemed like far more fun and I wondered what they were up to while Bella sat in the house for 3 months then repeatedly tried to kill herself beacuse her boyfriend was gone. Anyone that pays taxes saying they personally enjoy these films should lose the right to vote because their intellectual growth was severely stunded before they reached college. Stuff like this has it's place, like The Telletubbies generally appeals to the under 5's this should only appeal to virgin girls. I'm on team Jacob. Mrs P enjoys them the daft slag. YOu get some idea what I've had to put up with the last few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm trying to do is prevent you from wasting three years of your life on a degree that will get you nowhere, the best thing that you could do is to realise your limitations and aim for a floor manager position at McD.
