Twilight Fans Camp Out For Premiere
By Wyatt Earp | June 23, 2010
Ooh, will someone
Hundreds of fans are awaiting Thursday night’s red-carpet premiere of “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse,” the third installment of the vampire movie series. The movie opens in theaters June 30.
Scripts are in the works for more “Twilight” movies.
About 9,000 wristbands are being handed out to fans, who began erecting tents Monday on concrete steps outside the theater. Nokia officials, who have issued a list of camping rules, say the wristbands must be worn until the premiere is over.
Wow, that is hella-gay. Let me try and put you knuckleheads on the right track. Blade is a vampire, and he kills other vampires for fun and profit. Edward is a blow-dried, prissy, closet homosexual – not that there’s anything wrong with that. See the difference?
That being said, the premiere is a week away, morons! Don’t you people have jobs? Who has time to camp out on line for that long? And furthermore, you camp out for a week to land tickets to a Beatles reunion or a Star Wars film, not a douchetastic teen squishfest!!!
Now run home to your mommies and never speak of this again.

Save you a place in line? You can have the spot I’m not using.

Actually I’m rooting for the werewolves, especially ones not constrained by the phases of the moon such as in the Underworld triliogy and Twilight. In fact I would arm the werewolve Indian clan with the MP5′s with the artificial sunshine/ultraviolet bullets from Underworld and they wouldn’t even need to shape shift to kill off the vastly overrated vampires.

I’m glad the fans are “erecting tents”. Those kids are going to have to find something fun to do with all that time on their hands.

Ace – Suh-weet!
Jon – Wow, that comment frightened me a little.
Mrs. Crankipants – Heh, heh, “erecting.”

Gee Wyatt, I didn’t know you were into THAT movie series

“You camp out for a week to land tickets to a Beatles reunion.”
..or a Led Zeppelin concert at the old Chicago Stadium.
Look kids, stay home and volunteer at a homeless shelter on that night, help your parents out around the house or help organize the next Tea Party event in your town.
Do something useful and productive, not waiting in line for another stupid, hollywood pretty boy vampire flick.
Besides, it will be at Redbox by September.

That’s exactly how Twilight should have ended.
Pity Edward didn’t try his shtick in Sunnyvale, with Buffy. Then it wouldn’t have gotten started in the first place…

Old NFO – I own the Blade trilogy. It’s top-notch. Twilight? Not so much.
Ferrell – It’s not like they won’t be able to see it ad nauseum for weeks on end.
Wes S. – Mmm . . . stakey!

Wyatt I think you would love the Underworld trilogy also.
Werewolves, vampires and modern weaponry (with enhanced ammunition) is a delightful treat.

I’m still laughing……….

It hurts my senses to see a vampire movie become a chick flick. When I bit my wife she slugged me.
I guess me not being a “blow-dried, prissy, closet homosexual,” makes thing different.
Send me Bella Lagossi.

This all started when they let Tom Cruise be a vampire. Find a real man to be a vampire.

How do you kill a Twilight vampire…….
Put the CD in the Microwave for 30 seconds.
Wyatt, have you watched the “The Good Guys”, on FOX…..
Stark is hilarious…..

Jon – Loved the first one but I haven’t seen the second. But come on, Kate Beckinsale in leather? Of course I saw that!
LDIV – Yeah, me too.
Danny – Interview With the Vampire looks manly next to this claptrap.
Ingineer66 – It’s like you’re reading my mind.
Thomas F – It looked good, but I haven’t seen an episode yet.

Speaking of Twitlight:
The Twilight of the Damned
Heh.

Vampire movies sorta lost me when the “boob” count went way down in the late 80′s – just saying

The books are hardly fine literature, but they are entertaining- fantasy romance for teens. What’s creepy to me are the women my age and older who are all slobbery about this crap.
The most unbelievable part of these books is the love story. The vampire bites are a heck of a lot more likely. Every author reimagines vampire canon, that’s their right. These are not the worst books I’ve read.
However, the first movie is good only for the soundtrack songs. *barf*

Rob – You want your vampires to be more like vamps, then?
S.A. – Oh, you know you classify yourself as “Team Edward.”

Actually no, I rooted for the wolf when I read ‘em.
