7 Undeniable Facts as to Why HP beats Twilight

posted by zar_far11

Harry Potter beats Twilight. Of course. But I really don't like it when HP mashabiki use opinion-ated "facts" when saying WHY Harry Potter is the better movie series. So, I, who am a major Potterhead, put together 7 true, solid, hard, and undeniable facts about certain aspects of the two movie series to prove why Harry Potter is the ultimate series.
**I will only be discussing the movies**

1) Soundtrack

Listen to this wonderful and memorable theme song. As wewe may have guessed, the theme song belogs to Harry Potter : link

Now listen to this: link
It's pretty, but it doesn't find a special place in your moyo like HP's does. (BTW, this isn't one of my 7 facts, but finding just this lilnk took me about 30 min. Doesn't that prove that the majority of audiences prefer HP better, since I found the HP theme song in about... let's see... 2 seconds?)

2) Casting

Alan Rickman as Severus Snape
Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix Lestrange.
Maggie Smith as Minerva McGonagall.
Daniel Radcliffe as Harry Potter
Emma Watson as Hermione Granger
Rupert Grint as Ronald Weasley
Gary Oldman as Sirius Black

The actors mentioned above are all in Harry Potter, and are all one of the juu 30 actors in THE WORLD. Kristen Stewart, Rob Pattinson, and Jacob Black, who are three most important actors in the Twilight movie series. are wayyyy off the list. The actors in Twilight... well, let's just say that the uigizaji is a bit stale.

3) Visual Effects
Please, people, have wewe SEEN the visual effects in HP?
HP's visual effects: link
Harry Potter's visual effects are wonderful; filled with action, realistic details, and fantastic elements that Twilight could never achieve.
Twilight's visual effects: They are SO bad, I couldn't even find a link on YouTube. Sure, there were thousands of video titled "Worst Visual Effects in Twilight" but not a single one complimenting Twilight's visual effects.

4) Storyline

Harry Potter's plot is about a wizard who goes through may dramatic and unforgettable (not necessarily in a good way) adventures, which all lead up to the point where he finds out that he must be the one to kill the Darkest wizard of all time.

Twilight's plot is about a girl who has mgawanyiko, baidisha feeling about who she loves. She tries not to get killed. Then she has a kid with one of those guys. Then they try not to get killed again. The end.

But I have to say, both are very original, but Harry Potter's storyline is much zaidi timeless and appeals to a wider range of audience.

5) Awards/Nominations

Harry Potter & the Sorcerer's Stone:
OSCAR NOMINATIONS-
--Best Art Direction
--Best Costume ubunifu
--Best muziki Original Score
Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban:
OSCAR NOMINATIONS-
--Best muziki Original Score
--Best Visual Effects
Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire:
OSCAR NOMINATIONS-
--Best Art Direction
Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince:
OSCAR NOMINATIONS-
--Best Cinematography
7 TOTAL NOMINATIONS

Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and the Breaking Dawn sinema have so far not been nominated for any Academy Awards.

6) Pacing
I feel like Twilight spits out new sinema every other day. I mean, give the audience time to build up anticipation, and just slow down a bit, like Harry Potter did.
These are Harry Potter's release dates:
November 16, 2001
November 15, 2002
June 4, 2004
November 18, 2005
July 11, 2007
July 15, 2009
November 19, 2010
July 15, 2011
These are Twilight's release dates:
November 21, 2008
November 20, 2009
June 30, 2010
November 18, 2011
November 16, 2012

See what I mean?

7) Critical Acclaim

See? Even though Twilight is maarufu amongst its fans, the pros are not so impressed. I mean HP 7 P2 even got a rare 96% and a rare 8.1 rating!! That's amazing.

In Conclusion. Many Twilighters argue that Twilight has had a bigger box office sucess, but that's not true. The least ticket-selling HP movie (#3) earned zaidi money than the best selling Twilight movie (#4part2). Besides, numbers aren't everything. They don't make the film better. It just proves that Twilight has zaidi shabiki girls. Which also doesn't improve the film's ujumla, jumla quality. Some argue that RobPattz is hotter than Daniel Radcliffe. Well, first of all, that has nothing to do with the MOVIE, and second, him being attractive doesn't help the film either. Please feel free to leave your opinions in the maoni below, but please no hating comments. It's mean, hurtful, and silly. Thanks for reading.

cassie-1-2-3 1. Um what? All this shows me is that you're very bad at YouTube. That song, or whatever you linked, has nothing to do with the Twilight soundtracks. It's just some techno thing with Twilight pictures. It's not even a remix of a Song from any of the scores or soundtracks. 2. You mean that imaginary list you just made up in your head? Honestly, I doubt any of those actors would make it anywhere near an actual accredited "Top 30 Actors in the World" list. 3. Some would agree with you, some would not. That is not an undeniable fact. 4. See #3 5. That's not really proof of anything other than that Harry Potter has been nominated for Academy Awards. 6. I don't see what you mean, actually. I think they made a mistake in Harry Potter by allowing their actors to age quicker than their characters. Especially since they weren't fully grown like the Twilight actors. It would have looked better if they were filmed more seamlessly, but it's no big deal and I get than they need breaks every once in a while. 7. You're going to use Rotten Tomatoes and IMDB to measure critics acclaim? Good luck with that.

bri-marie 1. Um, did you read the description of the video? The person who posted the Twilight song? Yeah... he flat out says it's "my rendition of the Twilight theme song." Rendition doesn't mean "actually in the movie." But, either way, the fact that you like the Harry Potter music better than Twilight is an opinion, not a "undeniable fact." 2. I don't know where you got that list from, but there is no "top 30 actors" list (except for fan made ones on the AMC and IMdB websites. There's a "top grossing actors" list, where [i]some[/i] of the actors you made make an appearance. But, a) the information you give is faulty, because not all those actors you listed are top 30 grossing actors and b) that doesn't mean anything except Harry Potter starts make a lot of money. That doesn't mean they're better actors. Which, by the way, is also an opinion, not an "undeniable fact." 3. Also opinion. Also, the fact that there aren't any youtube videos about Twilight's good effects means, literally, nothing. 4. Opinion. 5. Lots of good movies haven't won awards. Lots of crappy movies have won awards. This point really doesn't mean much of anything. 6. LOTR and PotC released movies right after another as well (except for the break between the 3rd LOTR movie, and The Hobbit.. But, since the Hobbit's three movies are being released right after one another...) I guess this means that those series' are bad? By your logic, anyway. Again, this point really doesn't mean much of anything. Especially when the movies are based off books, so the pacing of when they're released is irrelevant. 5.Much like number five, this really doesn't mean much of anything. Lots of good movies have gotten horrible critics (Roger Ebert pretty much bashed Thor and admitted he found it so boring that he fell asleep). Lots of good movies have gotten good reviews. Shockingly enough, a person's opinion on a movie doesn't mean very much of anything when comparing it to a person's opinion on a completely different movie.

zar_far11 Um, excuse me, didn't I already say I don't care for arguments?

bri-marie You said "no hate comments.' Pointing out flaws in your argument aren't "hate comments." If you only want to talk to people who agree with everything you say, you probably shouldn't post on a public internet forum made up of people who aren't always going to agree with you.

Rayne_Erode18 First of all, Twilight is a degrading movie/book series that nobody except pathetic girls like to read. Unlike Harry Potter, Twilight is stuck in the same damn setting, whereas in Harry Potter, they travel to different places. On another note, all the characters in Twilight are Mary Sues. Mary Sues are BAD. I repeat. Mary Sues are BAD. See Mary-Sue. A female fanfiction character who is so perfect as to be annoying. The male equivlalent is the Marty-Stu. Often abbreviated to "Sue". A Mary Sue character is usually written by a beginning author. Often, the Mary Sue is a self-insert with a few "improvements" (ex. better body, more popular, etc). The Mary Sue character is almost always beautiful, smart, etc... In short, she is the "perfect" girl. The Mary Sue usually falls in love with the author's favorite character(s) and winds up upstaging all of the other characters in the book/series/universe. There are several main types of Mary Sue: Victim!Sues: The Victim!Sue is your whiny, wimpy, pathetic female character who can't seem to do much of anything except cry and get herself into trouble that the romantic interest of the fic has to rescue her from. Warrior!Sues: The Warrior!Sue is usually loud, obnoxious and (of course) an amazing warrior. She'll usually have some tragic past that led her to become a warrior, and she'll upstage all of the Canonical characters with her mad Sueish powerz. Mage!Sue: Similar to the Warrior!Sue, the Mage!Sue has amazing stregnth in magic, or has a magical power that nobody else has. She'll usually wind up upstaging all of the magical charac... more... buy mary sue mugs & shirts by nscangal Jul 29, 2005 share this add a video 2. Mary Sue 385 up, 53 down The most common type of Mary Sue is a character based an the author's idealization of themself. Furthermore, because the author is imagining a preferred version of themself, and because faults are overlooked in favor of optimization, a Mary Sue tends to have only superficial resemblance to the author, sharing similar likes/dislikes and a similar spirituality (when applicable), but objectifying things such as worldview and relationships. This type of Mary Sue is more common simply because it's easier to write and is more appealing to the author. This Mary Sue is found in fanfics and original fiction alike. Yes, Mary Sues abound even in professional writing. So you see, Twilight is an insufferable series that shouldn't even have the right to exist. Without furtherado, i suggest that you leave this poor girl alone and get on with your lives. I'm sure she has better things to do than listen to your pathetic attempts to defend Twilight. Thank you for your time.

zar_far11 <3 you.

alexisn10 1. The Twilight scores are pretty well done and the actual soundtracks are awesome. Besides, Twilight shares composers with Harry Potter and even Lord of the Rings (Eclipse guy did all LOTR films and the Hobbit and French New Moon guy did Harry Potter 7/8) 2. Alan Rickman, Helena Bonham Carter, Maggie Smith, Gary Oldman, and Ralph Fiennes are all fine actors nevertheless. Them being on this list makes sense. But Dan, Emma, and Rupert. I mean, they're good actors to me but considering that it's a list of only 30 of the greatest actors of all time I'm sure they would put Daniel Day Lewis, Samuel L. Jackson, Christoph Waltz, and Meryl Streep before them. 3. I agree 4. I agree 5. You forgot Deathly Hallows Part 1 and 2's nominations :( I say the same thing for Lord of the Rings, an Oscar doesn't make the film any better. I used to think otherwise but it's true. The Avengers didn't win anything this year yet it's still one of the (in my opinion at least, the best was Django) best films of 2012. Same goes for The Hobbit. Hunger Games was also seen as one of the best films of 2012 and it wasn't even nominated for anything. 6. That doesn't really make the films better... 7. All a critic's opinion (I used to think otherwise). There were a handful of critics that called Harry Potter mediocre and a handful that called them genius. There were a ton of critics that even called genius films mediocre.

cassie-1-2-3 I don't feel degraded by reading anything and Mary Sues aren't bad, in my opinion, if they do indeed exist. <3 for me.

zanhar1 I think you're article is well written compared to some of the others on this spot.

zar_far11 Thx

zanhar1 No problem

Witchnivi Totally true....

GinnyRonFred I do think Harry Potter is better but you are not really helping this conflict! Sorry! But you article is well written so good job for the effort!

tsmith120 If I may be so bold as to make a suggestion: When you have a heading that says you have seven undeniable reasons as to why Harry Potter beats Twilight, maybe make sure they are actually undeniable.

fandomforever Um, I agree that harry potter is billions of times better than the crap they call twilight, but I mean these aren't undeniable facts.

A Rant About Twilight And Harry Potter.

posted by Guste_LT

THIS IS JUST MY PERSONALL OPINION, FEEL FREE TO DISAGREE, THIS IS JUST WHAT I THINK, NOT THE ENTIRE POPULATION OF TWILIGHT FANS. SO PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS IS MY PERSONAL OPINION!!!!!!

Thank you.

Just so wewe know, this is a Twilight shabiki speaking.

Twilight may NOT be the best book ever, i didnt say that it was (keep that in mind), when i read it, i saw alot of flaws, like in breaking dawn, Meyer made it clear that vamps cant inject sperm, and yet, somehow Bella got pregnant. I've read this makala kwa XDRoseLuvsHP, and i totaly agree. I believe that People like Twilight zaidi thatn HP because it...

A Declaration Against the Twilight Saga

posted by PrincessVandal

For all of wewe who don't know this, but I am an ex-Twilight fan. This my own personal opinion based on my personal experience with the series. For all of the Twilight mashabiki who may be kusoma this right now, wewe have been warned. So here I go:

When in the course of normal, non-brainwashed leader events, it becomes necessary to dissolve the addiction of the highly “popular” teen-craving novel which have been oppressive to the efforts to differentiate the normal and the abnormal ndoto to which people, generally females, dreamed of, decent respect to the creativity based on the author's dream...

Harry Potter

posted by bakura1234

It has a PLOT! It has Subplots.It has several characters with depth.JK is not afraid to sacrifice the good guys. The characters aren't one dementional. JK researches her material, has good use of Latin and history within her books. Spells are named after Latin words and do what the Latin words do. Names of soem characters give hints as to what that character is such as Sirius which means Dog nyota for zaidi Albus which means White (pure wizard). wewe can relate Harry Potter to WWII because of similarities wewe could learn some history from the books.
Harry Potter teaches a good deal about prejudice...

The Internet and Maturity

posted by Kersian

Okay this is zaidi of an opinion, since my view of the activity is based off opinion.

Now whenever someone posts something on the internet and someone else responds negatively to it, they respond in the same way to that person. In a very negative tone. This is in fact what I see at times in forums.

First Twilight and Harry Potter fans, if wewe post anything on the internet, whether they are opinions au facts, wewe have responsibilities with it. wewe are exposing yourself to others in the internet. wewe are responsible for the positive au negative replies. So don't blame others for your actions....

Harry Potter dhidi ya Twilight

posted by potteralltheway

I have actually read both series and liked Twilight okay, but Harry Potter rules for me!

First, the so often brought up topic... love, au lack thereof. Harry Potter consists of all sorts of love: family, parental, romantic, friend. Twilight consists of pure lust. Now for the evidence! Mrs. Molly Weasley killed Bellatrix Lestrange because Bellatrix nearly killed Ginny, her only daughter. The Weasleys all look out for each other, and even Percy apologized in the seventh book. They joined together in dark times, happy ones, sad ones, and when Fred died. wewe might say the Cullens onyesha family love....
