So, I watched the 3 twilight movies recently with my girlfriend. we watched the first 2 at home about a month ago and just saw eclipse yesterday. My expectations were super low, and I found I didn't hate them as much as I thought I would. But, I have a buncha questions about the movies in general...
Spoiler:
So, first off, vampires are made of stone? Why? I mean, they seem soft enough, but if you hit them really hard they shatter into a million bits? I understand they wanted to stay away from blood because girls don't like it, but they could have at least kept the fangs or something. Do they have little stone crystals inside them that make them sparkle? If they're made of stone, does that make them Golems and not vampires?
Why are noob vampires the strongest? Isn't the whole idea that the older a vamp is the tougher they get? So, old vampires are wimps?
Are werewolves made of stone too? Cuz how else could Ms Moodypants have broken her hand when she punched Mr Showmymuscles?
And I think back in the 1st movie they said jasper or whatever his name is was the youngest in their vampire clan so he want all nuts when bella cut herself. I think they said Edward was turned in the early 1900s when he was sick and dying? And that blond one in her flashback looked like she was from the 30's or so. But, in Jasper's history he talked about fighting with the confederate army.. so, if he's from like 1850, how can he be the youngest?
Yeah I had to hand mine in when I went to see the latest movie. I was drawn in with promise of seeing Werewolves and Vamps beating the carp out of each other.
It was a lie.
To answer the OPs question; new vamps are stronger because they still have human blood in them and vamps are strongest when they have lots of human blood. You can only drink so much but new borns still have all the blood they had when they were human.
Ms Moodypants punched Mr Doesn'townashirt in the jaw. You could break a hand IRL as well.
Church: So it is a sword, It just happens to function like a key in very specific situations.
Caboose: Or it's a key all the time, and when you stick it in people, it unlocks their death.
Now don't be so quick to judge Shiven. It could be that he had been in a hockey/football game earlier and had been highsticked and was not in his right mind. Alternatively, a radio could have been dropped into the tub by the GF, or mayhaps she just slipped some LSD into his cheerios that morning and he was unaware of the day's events.
Otherwise, yea, mancard hand it over.

Sorry, but once you watch Twilight, you can't defend yourself with anti-twilight motivationals and jokes. You are forever stained. Your manliness has been girlishly torn from your very being. No amount of beer, 40K, FPS games, or contact sports can ever return what is lost.
She Who Must Be Obeyed liked 300 actually, and even Predators.

Actually your "manliness" has receded into the very depths of your pelvis, to ashamed to show itself for eternity....
My wife hates 300, aliens, predator, all those kinds of movies. It has come in handy!

yeah, my GF loves Aliens and Predator and all those kindsa movies. She even liked 300, but I think that was just cuz none of the guys wore shirts. I had her watch my stuff like Army of Darkness and the Big Lebowski that I know she didn't like that much, so once in a while I gotta give in and see one of her movies. at least she's not into the sappy stuff like julia roberts romantic comedies and stuff.

Eh, either way, Necros' manliness is gone, never to return again

You Know, any one of those could immensly improve the experience of watching Twighlight.
I think Stephanie Meyer actually made the most successful porno ever. Since porn for women is written and intellectual, and porn for guys is visual and tangible.
