"Teens React to Twilight" could?be described as a supercut revealing the wide range of emotions teenagers?can imbue into three simple words ?"vampires and werewolves." Actually, it's the premiere of a new YouTube spin-off by the Fine Brothers, the same alleged siblings behind "Kids React," and their always hilarious "Spoilers" series.
Rapturous joy, feigned indifference and dramatic disgust?all come across loud and clear as teenagers ages 14-17 view the movie trailer for the the latest in the sparkly vampire series, "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1" and share their feelings on the blood-sucking phenomenon.
"Why is it Twilight?" moans Sam, 15 once he realizes what?he's been asked to endure.?It's a reaction shared by most of the boys, and to a lesser degree, some of the girls.
They roll their eyes, pantomime excitement or?mock the storyline in this 6-1/2-minute documentary that will make you LOL all over yourself. At the other end of the spectrum, Kennedy, 15, unabashedly declares "I can't wait!" stating she's read all of the books at least 10 times each ? though when asked, she can't say she's learned anything from them.
For all you grups worried that "Twilight" sends the wrong message to today's young ladies ? and 40-something moms ? fear not. Two teen?girls here echo horror master Stephen King's comparison?with another supernatural series?for kids, in which he said: "Harry Potter is about confronting fears, finding inner strength and doing what is right in the face of adversity. Twilight is about how important it is to have a boyfriend."
Most amusing is that a good chunk of the kids here who act irritated while watching and discussing "Twilight" also admit that they'll most likely see "Breaking Dawn" ... you know, "if my girlfriend invites me."
More on all this silly stuff:
Helen A.S. Popkin goes blah blah blah about the Internet. Tell her to get a real job on Twitter and/or Facebook.?Also, Google+.
