Dear Hom Hong, i hate you- i hate you so much- tell me whats wrong with this sentence (As vampire- human weddings go, Bella's is a success. First off, none of the guests is eaten, so that's a plus.) first of all- it should be...none of the guests ARE eaten- its ARE eaten you idiot- i cant believe you get paid to write! your grammar is so BAD! holy crap- i just cant believe this- i couldnt even finish the review- you should be fired- really- you should quit your job- ok- now thats out of the way- second- you need to turn in your man card- because its been revoked-
Seriously, you're jumping on the guy for criticizing your grammar right after you did the SAME THING?! Look up the phrase "pot calling the kettle black."
Actually, technically "none of the guests is eaten" can be considered grammatically correct, if "none" is a singular pronoun. And it can be. I don't mean to incite another flame war, but you really shouldn't criticize someone else's grammar when your own grammar is, to say the least, less than competent.
obviously the "its" is just a common blog typo missing a grammar mark ... that is much different than saying "none of the guests is eaten" which is just bad english...
Do you think it's possible that someone paid him to give Breaking dawn 1 a good review? or is just that critics are afraid to say that oscar nominated actors, actresses and in this case directors like Bill Condon can make crappy jobs?
What is a "man card?" Do some guys really need cards to remind them that they're men? Most of us have a penis, but if you need a card, then I guess that says a lot about you.
My God, SHUT UP. Trust me, I hate this film too, I really do, but to go off on a TYPO? Saying that you "hate him so much" because he use "is" instead of "are". There are still people dying from that fucking famine in Somalia. Be more considerate.
you also forgot to mention something else that was wrong with this stupid critics sentence that you quoted ... "As vampire-human weddings go, Bella's is a success.." -- this guy is dumb for even making that statement because when in reality do vampire-human weddings even take place? did i miss something? do vampires currently exist in our world to make such a statement that Bella's wedding is a success in comparison with OTHER vampire-human weddings??? this critic is such an idiot ... he must have forgotten that in this world vampires dont exist and if they did, they wouldn't be so dumbed down to sappy soap opera storybook lifestyles such as the one portrayed in this wretched series .. vampires wouldn't marry humans, they would feed on them and humans in turn will probably man up against them and there would be a war of humans vs. beasts such as portrayed in the much better BLADE series.
excuse me, you must have never read the books and have never understood the story line. Its about a couple falling in love and yea so they have sex. they are married and that is okay. at least this movie is teaching the moral of sex after marriage and how a marriage can have its faults, no matter what. and adding to this, the werewolves in the books, always had clothes with them when they changed. they were tied around their feet and the vampires' hairstyles can change, they just don't change them. read up before comparing to the book.
so- i always admit to rambling when alcohol is involved- have you even seen the film- i have- by movie standards alone makes this film a terrible movie- if i hadnt known anything about the series when going into seeing this- i would of wanted my money back- because nothing happens-really- the score is terrible- there are way to many montages- the fit every song on the soundtrack into the actual film itself- the actors are boring- except the father- who is the only character you feel for- you never through out the whole series get a sense of passion and desire between the two main characters- and it still stands for this film-
Who gives a crap about Twilight films, for that matter? Aside from pre-pubescent girls and anyone willing to check their brain at the door and enjoy two hours of sparkly vampire romance. Where are the real vampire films when we need them? Bela must be rolling over in his grave.
If Twilight is teaching anything, it's that you can drop your entire life for a guy you barely know WHILE YOU'RE IN HIGH SCHOOL the moment you meet him because he will whisk you away to a fantasy land and make you a vampire.
I don't know about you, but that's not exactly the best female role model.
I will agree with you to a point -- Bella and Edward do wait until marriage -- but at the same time, Bella seems to be *completely* consumed by her [almost purely physical] affections for Edward and to have no sense of identity outside of him. Her every move seems calculated to fulfill her own desires instead of considering what is best for her, Edward, or anyone else around her, including listening to the wishes of some of her vampire friends, who want her to think twice before going down a road they would not have chosen.
In other words, Bella is a "technical virgin," but I can hardly think of a single morally admirable thing she does in any of the books as far as the central 'romance' goes. She may not have had sex outside of marriage, as you say, but that doesn't mean I don't think she's been driven by it since the start of the series.
"...Bella seems to be *completely* consumed by her [almost purely physical] affections for Edward and to have no sense of identity outside of him. Her every move seems calculated to fulfill her own desires..."
Uhh, a tad contradictory, aren't you? How does a woman so consumed by *another* execute her every move calculated to fulfill her *own* desires?
Big money grab for producers living off Twilight name from the pass series.
Basically too long and slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did I mention slow? Intensely slow. Two hours was not needed to create this lackluster shallow movie.
Here is the movie in a nutshell: *****SPOILER ALERT***** Marriage and banging=50% pregnancy=45% and 5% action (yea you wait for what feels like 1hr into the movie for anything exciting to happen). Yep that was whole story line.
Luckily I got the tickets for free or I would have feel more disappointed paying to see this crap.
By the way I thought the other series were actually good and disagree with the critics in the past; however, I think the critics are right on this one.
One tries to understand, what kind of movie this man went to see? Because I didn't watch the same as him. To me, this movie was bad, slow and horribly acted...not to mention boring...
I did laugh in some scenes (because of the bad acting by Bella, and "NO" I don't know the name of the Actress. I don't like her acting, ERGO, I don't care who she is...)
Anyhow, most of the time I try to make the best of a movie by looking the good things in it. But, since the first one of this franchise, I coulnd't.
So, TOM, your LONG career (if we can call it like that) as come to an end. This was the worst of your critics in all time...
PS: excuse the bad grammar, and the bad sintaxis. I'm an Argentinian, and this isn't my native languague, so sometimes I have some errors on my ortography. SORRY...:D.
what the hell is wrong with the film makers in hollywood making blood, battles and demons then make golden compass 2 and 3 it the same thing demons no blood from golden compass
yes, love it, embrace it and then remember what a really good film is. this is not a good film, it might be the best in the series but it's like arguing on which type of cancer is better. both the film series and the book series are dim, unimaginative and awfully written.
-sorry if my grammar isn't perfect, english is not my native language.
I think its hilarious that people who don't like this movie really love to dissect every aspect of it, then go crazy and insult people who love it for what it is, a romance movie!! You all are really stupid for putting so much effort into something that *apparently* means so little to you.

How do you defend an argument by restating the same thing the writer you're attacking wrote? And it's "it's," not "its."

Pretty sure he's just telling you that if your grammar is even worse than the person you're criticizing, you probably shouldn't be criticizing him.

Actually, I think both of those might work.

If we rephrase the sentence as "[not one] of the guests is eaten," it works just fine.

You give Rotten Tomato commentators a bad name. None of your grammatical corrections is correct. Hope you get the message.
