i'm a big fan of twilight. i loved the books and the movies. so i'm super excited about seeing more to it.
i dont know whats happening with all that talk about there not being enough female directors and "5 winners". what is this some sort of game show? lol i dont get that part. but if it means seeing kristen stewart i guess its cool.
Kristen is only going to be a judge. She's not going to star in any of them.
As for the topic as a whole, Meyer is encouraging female directors to make fan-movies of her work in order for them to get what's called "exposure". I haven't seen any kind of other form of compensation there, so as an artist I'm calling "bullshit". "Exposure" isn't something to work for. It's essentially the not-promise of future work and recognition. "You might get noticed if you do this for me!"
Meyer is the only one really benefiting from all of this. The directors might get a little bit of her spotlight, but Meyer's really just sitting there telling us that Twilight isn't dead, and she's going to make money from the goddamned advertising from all of this while the female directors she's calling for are going to get nothing but a pat on the back and maybe fifteen minutes of fame.
That's bullshit. The whole idea of people working for free is bullshit, and people get away with this. I see it all the time in my field of graphic design: companies call for a group of designers to design something, then they pick the "winner", and give them the paycheck, essentially leaving everyone else with nothing but a "good try, champ" pat on the back for all the hours they poured into the project.
As for what I'd like to see, I'd like to see more backstories covered. I want to see more about Carlisle and Rosalie personally (And I would like them to be historically accurate and not see Rosalie's rape story being swept under the rug, please and ******** thank you).
I don't want to see what happens with Nessie unless it's ripping Jacob's face off when he tries to mate with her because that imprinting s**t is gross. emotion_puke
"I'm kind of a big deal."
so it is like a game show. lol like a ink master or survivor. that is bullshit.
in that case i won't even like them. for me to like it, it has to at least feel like an OFFICIAL part of the already existing series.
this is scaring me.
Well I told you dear, people/corporations who continue, or add on to, a series do so to keep making money off of it. This is why series that are not allowed to die becomes ruined. Meyer doesn't care about Twilight, she's just a greedy attention whore who just want to make money and stay in the spotlight. She is a terrible writer with writing skills that are barely subpar on her best days. This one of the reasons, one of the main reasons, that people hate Twilight, because the author is a temperamental and childish hack of an a*****e.
Well I do hope that it's scaring you. Nothing good comes out of jerks doing what they can to be famous. Just look at reality TV. I mean honestly
