Kojima.... a Twilight fan?

So, unless English works gain something in translation much like how Japanese works loose something in the process - and those things are characterization, cohesion, plot, well-written dialog and the ability to suspend your disbelief - it just becomes hard to see how anyone could fall for it.

You may be on to something here!

I understand what you are trying to say about Kojima being able to tell that Twilight is a garbage piece of literature but maby (to play devil's advocate) kojima expects you to see the book through the eyes of a genius and see the Twilight series as the most important literary work of the century! Perhaps Kojima sees something in the book that none of us are complex enough to see ourselves.
Or maby he has the mind set of a tween school girl :/ who can say for sure.

Maybe he likes twilight because it's so crappy that he feel better about some of his not so good games

[Ack]

I also still have a vendetta against the series for single-handedly ruining the vampire mythos. Meyer has turned what used to be the most bad-ass and feared creatures of the night into tree-climbing, sparkle-radiating, overly-melodramatic boy toys.

Anne Rice started the fire. Meyer just fueled it.

Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Folks, you want to know how vampire literature got to this point? It's right there. In that freaking sentence.

Me? I prefer my vampires to be freakish abominations with cannibalistic overtones, not some effeminate whiny creature who spends his nights moping about over how pretty he is. And if a vampire is cultured, I want him to rule armies of vermin and black-hearted minions who are almost every bit as cruel as he is.

Basically, I want this:

But like, nosferatu (I know thats the movie name but is that the character name? I dont know) is so ugly and stuff. I could never imagine being loved by that kind of vampire Maby if we threw some glitter on him or something...

[Ack]

His name was Count Orlok. And any attempt at a romantic situation with him would probably end up like this:

Vampires are bad dudes, they kick ass and kill, they scare the crap out of us. These stupid vampires in twilight are women's wet dreams instead of fears.

Pardon my french

Haven't seen the movie or read the book(s), but with the following Twilight has, they have to be doing something right.

Imagine series must I say anything more?

My mom has studied Hispanic Literature, our house is filled with the great works of Spanish literature...

And she loves this crap.

Agreed, but I also loved Fright Night which starred a handsome vampire, but also had tons of gore, blood, all that good stuff.

The best Twilight related bit I've ever heard is....
.....and then Buffy kills Edward. The End.

The visual you say? 2nd best remix ever next to the Slap Chop

I imagine that most relationships with old-school vampires would be more like
