So, just to be clear, if this thread is spam you posting a 2 paragraph message would just, in fact, INCREASE the "spam", also making your post, on this thread, spam.... =)
The books are decently written, even if they use rather simple sentence structure. Keep mind her target audience was 13 to 17 year old girls. The movies are terribly directed and scripted with marginal acting, but again, the target audience is not going to be able to notice as they are ruled 100% by pre-conceived fantasies they obtained by the books. I have read well over a thousand books and the ones these movies are based off of are NO WHERE near the best, not even close in their genre (vampire related fantasy) but they aren't the worst either. A better book by Stephanie Meyer is The Host. Slightly older target group with that, portraying some questions about what humanity would do in that situation.
Just because you don't like something doesn't make it bad or worthless; I assure you (with no offense intended, because it is the exact same for my own opinions) that the vast majority of the world doesn't care about your opinions. If you don't like something, leave it be. Negative comments like that instead of just not posting don't actual make them like whatever it is any less, just make you look like an ignorant, self absorbed ass =)
I don't care myself for the movies much at all either, and the books are mostly just ok, but that doesn't make this thread spam, nor does it make "Twilight" or the other books/movies bad, it just most likely means that you are, in fact, not the target audience.
