That said I haven't seen either Breaking Dawn film.
So, are you in fact a teenage girl then Paul?

The sneering towards them actually puts me in mind of non-horror fans thinking we're weird and sick for the films we watch - ie judging something clearly not intended for them that they can't really appreciate as a result.
No. Sorry. There's NO excuse for liking them. None what so ever.

Pah!

Incidentally, New Moon is better than both The Lost Boys AND Near Dark put together.

Take The Lost Boys out of the equation and it wouldn't be.

No it isnt!

What rubbish, I have to watch the twighlight movies through work, there actually not that good at all. The effects sequences for the werewolves are genuinelly pathetic, the plot is weak and the acting poor. Even if I hated lost boys and near dark, objectively they are far better constructed films than any twighlight film i've seen so far.

That said, its all opinions at the end of the day and if you enjoyed new moon more then so be it!

I think you are misreading my quote B_E.

Paul said better than both films put together, which is likely true as the Lost Boys would completely taint the Near Dark movie.

Remove The Lost Boys from the mix and Near Dark wins hands down

The cgi werewolves are incredibly laughable. I can't believe a film that big can't pull off more effective cgi.

Yeah, I realised that too late - I was worried that you were one of those crazy Lost Boys (Twilight prequel ) supporters for a second!
