Just FYI, the opening credits are not clips from any episodes.

But here's the answer to your question.
Spoiler:
The dog featured prominently in Season 1 doesn't die.

Thank you.

The article was right about one thing. Edward was so gay, and that whole thing reeked of teen girl lust for the impossible gay guy.

I don't think that's necessarily the dynamic in the majority of vampire stories, but Twilight was absolutely that.

Being that I was once a teen girl and have a teen girl, I'm going to disagree with you.

Vampires are sexy, tend to be described as very good looking, and have that bad boy thing going on.

How is that exclusively gay?

I'm not saying all vampires are gay, I'm saying Edward is.

(as portrayed in the film ... I haven't read the books)

Strangler Lewis 10-20-2009 10:02 AM

Lestat and Louis etc. were gay.

Edward's not gay. The entire series began as the erotic dream of a nice married Mormon lady. It's one big dump on her husband (the Jacob figure). Or so I see it.

innerSpaceman 10-20-2009 10:18 AM

I'm not sure how it is in the books, but I know mo when I see it ... and Edward was a fag in the film.

Strangler Lewis 10-20-2009 10:25 AM

I haven't read the article, but if Edward is gay, then since he and his whole family are in straight relationships, they must all be converted homosexuals. That would explain Alice's spiky hair.

innerSpaceman 10-20-2009 10:48 AM

Pfft, I was in a straight relationship for 16 years. (That's 14 centuries in Vampire Years.)




Case closed.

How is Edward being portrayed as being gay in the movie?

He's stalking perusing her for most of the first book.

innerSpaceman 10-20-2009 11:25 AM

I would never subject myself that that awful treacle again in my lifetime to give you particulars. Suffice it to say that my gaydar was tripped over and over and over again ... as much for Edward's entire manner and aura as for the type of girl-crush and avoidance being pathetically displayed.


I don't care if he pursues women and sleeps with them, and bites their necks, and sucks their blood, and wears their glitter all over his body. It's all beard, and he's gay.
