Two Legends: Harry Potter vs. Twilight - Comments

I love Harry Potter! Well, Draco Malfoy to be exact, but you know what I mean. I don't think Twilight was very good, the books or the movie. Though, I am in love with Jacob! I used to love Twilight but after re-reading it, I found spelling mistakes, plot holes, and Bella just got plain annoying! I'm on team Slytherin, and team Jacob.

To me,HP is better.I'm sorry to all you Twilighters out there,but I just think it's overrated and too mushy.And it annoys me how Stephanie seems to try to make Bella perfect.

The twilight movie is quite rubbish 2bh and the HP ones are gd but i think it is the other way round for the books as the HP ones bored me and twilight converted me to Cullenism... Even though i prefer twilight HP is most definetely more popular :D

HP's best! I've read some Twilight books, there is nothing wrong with them but um... well nothing can compare to HP, at least not to me... I don't really think it'll be bigger than HP...

well i love harry potter always will too

Wow, you're all kind of stupid.
She's not comparing the stories itself, if you can even understand that.
Considering that these books are teen phenomenons, in which cause obsession, fanfiction writing, roleplaying, and so on, which book will be more popular? Considering that Twilight had just recently become a movie, will it be as successful as the Harry Potter movies are?
That's what she's comparing, you twits. Whether or not Twilight will be more successful than Harry Potter, or Harry Potter will still be the reigning king on teen fantasy novels.
Comparing two heavy weights in the young adult novel world.

To be honest, I dislike both of them.

Unfortunately, I never really could get into the Harry Potter books. They just didn't catch my attention like Twilight did. D: The HP movies are brilliant though, they all pretty much trump the Twilight movie.

Since I was nine I've been a maasssive Harry Potter fan, and I must admit Twilight has taken over that for me.
But I love them both, and don't think I could ever choose. I like them both for different reasons. Twilight more taps into my 'girlie' side, so I relate to Bella a whole truckload, and Harry Potter is more philisophical to me, about being brave and standing up for yoursef. That kind of thing.
Oh, I'm a gryiffindor. And on Team Edward
:D

a Walk To Remember: Harry Potter: The bks sucked but the movies rule!

no,....just no...there's something entrancing about sitting in your room with a flashlight at 4:30 in the morning and finally finishing Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows. OR any Harry Potter book actually..
With the movies I knew they weren't going to be able to put everything in it. there was a line though. Such as in the fourth installment when they cut out the entire actual Quidditch Cup.

In Conclusion The books ruled and the movies kinda sucked....but not as bad as Twilight in my opinion ;]
just had to throw that in dont yell at me

to Punk.Riot: dont call her a dumbass you're the dumbass because you read her article and chose to commment even though you didn't like it. It's not her fault that you didnt like the article. I did so meh.

anyway: great article i enjoyed it. I finally found someone else who thought Bella was helpless without Edward.
But yeah i'm in Slytherin and on Team I really don't want to hear about Twilight anymore :]

you're a dumbass.that's all i can say about you.
why do you even compare them?they're different.

anyway,i go for Twilight.i haven't read a Harry Potter book yet.and i don't think i ever will.

I don't even see HOW people can compare Twilight and Harry Potter.
They are two COMPLETELY different books with two COMPLETELY different plots.

I love them both. But Twilight wins my heart. Not cause of the stupid 'fad' but cause I seem very interested in the plot. It may seem lacking to some, but I love it. The Cullens are perfect. Bella is perfect. Jacob is perfect. Everyone is.

Harry Potter is more of a defeating evil and fulfilling the prophecy kinda thing. Cause of Voldemort. Twilight is a human-immortal romance that will have to over come challenges.

Two legends. Why compare?

I like them both but I will probably have to go with "Harry Potter" for the reasons you listed. I kept reading "Twilight" for the characters but I will be the first to admit none of the books have a solid plot. More like random things that happen that build up and then Meyer has no guts to give a finale because that would mean maybe injuring a character (only ones I can think of that really suffered any long term damage were Bella in Book 1 and Irina in Book 4) and so she just cuts it off with an anti-climatic ending. As you can tell, I am still very disappointed in "Breaking Dawn."

Both, and if you never finished Twilight, then why are you writing an article about it?

I love both.

harry potter is an extremely great novel series, as is twilight.
i feel that they both have interesting plots and characters.

twilight had me crying and feeling emotional as harry potter had me reading under my blanket with a flashlight. they are both really amazing.

AMEN! Ahhh, Twilight is horrid.
HARRY POTTER FTW!
It truly is a classic, I can see my kids in 25 years sitting and reading it with me.
Twilight... not so much.

HARRY POTTER!
HP is saturated in awesome.
Twilight is lacking.

There's nothing wrong with Twilight, but I'd choose Harry Potter. Sure, it was predictable that Harry would beat off Voldemort, but there are so many more sub-plots interlaced. I don't think the story was stretched out; it made things more darker, mysterious, fascinating, and kept you wanting more.

I've read all the books in the Twilight series, and I basically had to force myself to keep on going around the middle of book three.
