I personally like Harry Potter better, but the fighting is just ridiculous. They're two completely different series, and are in two different genres. But people do have a reason to get caught up in it. If you're one of the people who are a fan of either of the series, of course you'll get defensive.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah, but seriously....what is there to get defensive about? Just because someone says one series is better than the other there's no reason to go postal. If you loved spagetti and I said I liked tacos better would you flip out and post a thousand things about how spagetti is so much better? Probaby not... Thats what I think, not trying to start a fight.

Well think about it. Reviewers started to call Twilight "the new Harry Potter". Considering that Twilight and Harry Potter differ so greatly, this made us Harry Potter fans become rather defensive, and some of the Twilight fans started promoting this idea that Twilight was replacing Harry Potter. It doesn't help much more that this was only about a year after The Deathly Hallows came out.

Ahhh, well...sorry about that. I don't follow those reviews or anything like that....I didn't know about that. But still....it's kind of silly :P

I know. Usually, I try not to get involved with debates about it. Honestly I try my hardest. But every once in a while, I will get extremely defensive if a Twilight fan starts insulting Harry Potter simply because they like Twilight, and they think it's impossible for someone to like both series at the same time. I like it when I can have an intelligent and mature debate about both series with someone though. Instead of the usual "CEDRIC DIGGORY FTW!!!" stuff.

Yeah, I'm not into either series but I can see how that would be annoying. But people are dumb, stupid and ridiculous and they do that crap about everything. I'm just glad they'll all die someday. I hate the phrase/abbreviation "FTW." It doesnt even make sense to me =P

by Anonymous 13 years ago

"I'm just glad they'll all die someday", that made me laugh a bit. Yeah, you definitely would understand if you were devoted to either series. What usually bugs me the most is when a Harry Potter fan or Twilight fan out of no where starts bashing the other series. I don't really understand "FTW" that much either, but I like using it sometimes though, even though I have a deep disliking for abbreviations.

Yup, yup....I know what you mean about flipping out out of no where. lol =P

I'm sorry but I have to say Twilight's fans are a bit more obessive. at least where I'm from anyway. and I think it's stupid when people say they don't like twilight because it's unrealistic. Uhm, harry potter is a wizard who rides on brooms, you can't get much more unrealistic. Find a different way to complain about Twilight why don'tcha

I could take. This post a lot more seriously. If the OP wasn't obviously. An annoying obsessive fan of. Fragments.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

The obsession from both sides is annoying, but there is one major difference; Harry Potter is good, Twillight is some the worst litterature out there. (And that's not an exaggeration, several experts agree)

My friend is reading Twilight right now, knowing how ridiculous it ends out to be. So far, I can't see her go a page without laughing at how silly it is...

@664126 (Rene_Magritte): This post is about people like you two.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

If that's what you think then you are sorely mislead. I never talk about it unless someone else brings it up, I hate all those silly user names that relate to Harry Potter, I hate that AVPM stuff that everyone's talking about, I don't dress up like harry potter or any weird shit like that, I've only seen two of the movies, I hate how many harry potter references people make and how people are still fighting over the two franchises.Those are the kind of things that make someone an annoying obsessive fan. I'm sorry for you if you honestly think that liking Harry Potter and disliking Twilight automatically make you obsessive because then everyone with a fucking brain, including every respected book critic that exist, is apparently an annoying obsessive fan. Good to know! n

Couldn't come up with a proper reply? I don't blame you, it must be hard with your level of intelligence.

Yes because your a badass talking down to me over a website. You comment on my post talking bad about Twilight in order to glorify Harry Potter it seems that you don't understand the point of my post. Reread the post then get back to me.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Reread my comments and get back to me. No, I am not "talking bad about Twilight to glorify Harry potter". Twilight is bad, do you just want me to lie and say it isn't? I never called Harry Potter anything like "magnificent" or even "great" I just said "good", I'd hardly call that "glorifying". And excuse me, but you were the first to "be a badass talking down to someone over a website". Your second sentence also seems to imply that the comment section is somehow your "property" and you're the boss of what is allowed to be said here. I entirely understand your post, I simply half-disagree with it's message and you don't seem to be mature enough to accept that.

I'm not going to spend anymore time arguing with you over a post.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Fine. Maybe you shouldn't have started the argument in the first place. You've pretty much acted like a troll this whole time.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Rene_Magritte really wasn't glorifying Harry Potter at all, they were simply saying that the Twilight series was pretty poorly written which is a known fact. That does not mean they love Harry Potter, they just dislike Twilight. It's possible to dislike one without being a fan of the other. I personally dislike both series, but I feel that the Harry Potter series is more... respectable? I guess would be the best word.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

They're just books. I really do not understand why people get so worked up about them. I read both series and I don't think either are anything worth screaming about.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I think they get so worked up about it because they have nothing else to do. And they have nothing else to do because they have no lives.

this should be potd coz it's soooooooo true

by Anonymous 13 years ago

THANK YOU. They're both neutral. I don't see why people fight over it so much. You aren't going to change the other persons mind.. That would've happened by now.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I personally prefer Harry Potter, and I don't really like Twilight, especially since the movie came out. I mean go ahead and like the book, but please don't pretend to be a wizard, or dump your boyfriend because he's "not like Edward"... I say that both sides need to say they prefer one over the other because it's not something everyone can agree on...

by Anonymous 13 years ago

As much as I love Harry Potter I have to agree with OP. It's getting annoying and truthfully enough fighting over them was so 3 years ago.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I like Harry Potter personally, but I really hate the fighting about it. The only time I get defensive is when Twilight fans start calling me stupid for not liking Twilight. People should be able to like whatever books they want, and not have people jump all over them. Fans of either series are at fault for this, and we all just need to learn that people have their own opinions.

i thought twilight was eh, okay. i thought hp was eh, okay. but i hate HP more than twilight cause their fans are more obsessive! Our school almost did HP themed pep rally and i'm sooo glad they didn't.
