If you were among those that thought Twilight was sickening, then you may be literally correct.

The number one movie in America is allegedly giving some viewers seizures.

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/entertainment/2011/11/twilight-breaking-dawn-scene-allegedly-causing-seizures/

Several instances of people saying they have developed seizures during the tense birthing scene in “Breaking Dawn: Part One” have been reported. The in-theater seizures, also known as photosensitive epilepsy, are thought to be a result of the bright flashing of red, black and white during the film’s nerve-wracking scene.

Brandon Gephart and Kelly Bauman had gone to see “Breaking Dawn: Part One” last Friday when Gephart began “convulsing, snorting, [and] trying to breathe,” according to Bauman. He doesn’t remember anything, he says, but soon awoke on the theater floor and was taken out by paramedics. The remainder of the screening was cancelled.

Maybe we'll be lucky, and much like Episode 36 of pokemon (the only episode with Porygon, Caused Seizures in Japan), we'll never see or hear about this movie ever again.


srstime: They probably should put a warning label somewhere( like they do with most video Games, Especially the cartoony fighting games) saying that there is a small chance of the movie causing a Seizure. While I'm not a fan of Twilight (the whole Vampire romance genre as well. Just not my thing), but that doesn't mean that fans of Twilight shouldn't be warned beforehand about the Seizure risks.

I doubt it has anything to do with epilepsy .. more like "Sorry honey, I really wanted to go see that at the movies with you, but it made me sick. We better not buy it on DVD either, just to be safe."

Now he can play the sympathy card whenever she tries to drag him to a movie he doesn't wanna see. Smart move, actually. Betcha we start seeing a lot of other guys having these pretend "seizures" too.

Somehow, I'm not that surprised. That scene was kind of sickening when it only existed as written words. No really. I think Meyer should have just had Bella black out and skip the whole thing XD.

I think the whole "birthing" aspect covers the first complaint well enough

One derived from throwing a book in a blender and picking out anything legible.

There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

Ah, so it's one of those combo names created by taking two reasonable names then using the wit that lead to such terms as "chillax", "terribad" and "horribad".

See. Two good things!

Twilight is so bad, it fosters creativity and remembrance of the forgotten Pokemon that gave young children seizure in the mid 90's

Yet it took the fall for it.

No no. Think about it! It wasn't even Pikachu's fault! It was Ash. Ash Katchup! He is the true perpetrator of Porygons downfall, all so he could manipulate Pokemon rarity!

Actually now that I think about it, it was the missiles were the antivirus the nurse used cause she thought it was a virus.

Clearly a conspiracy to keep Porygons down.

Indeed. But just you see. Porygon shall rise again, and all shall tremble before his geometric awesomeness!

Maybe you might want to put 'spoilers' or something in the title of this thread. Some of us haven't seen the movie yet.
