Twilight's social message

2010-07-01 20:10:00.807728+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Why team Jacob always has to lose in Twilight:

Why does Team Jacob always have to lose? Because Eclipse is a movie about rejecting adulthood, not just as a person but also as a culture. It's about rejecting adult relationships between men and women, but also between people of different races and between people from the city (like Victoria's army) and people from Forks. It's about never crossing boundaries, never leaving home.

Because it's not just a series of books and movies about a 90 year old puttin' the moves on a vulnerable young teen.
