        yup, he really is supposed to be just an image of perfection. Something that makes you lose your breath. - Callisto Nov 21, 08:22 1
        
        Exactly. -- nm - JaxSean Nov 21, 08:23

  - "I find the over-romanticism of the vampire as a literary device quite distasteful," I agree. It's a metaphor for sex really. -- nm - lileve Nov 21, 07:57 8
    - Considering the overwhelming sales of paranormal romance, ya'll all in the minority. -- nm - Amy Nov 21, 08:01 1
      - I'm find with that. Just voicing my opinion. -- nm - lileve Nov 21, 08:02
    - [deleted] 5
      - Okay, take away distasteful. But I just find it to be a scenario used over and over again. It's just not for me. - lileve Nov 21, 08:04

    - the pro-abstinence stuff annoys me too. -- nm - loosilu Nov 21, 07:56 8
      - What's so bad about pro-abstinence? -- nm - Dano Nov 21, 08:04 7
        
        romanticizing it, I guess. it's all very precious. -- nm - loosilu Nov 21, 08:05 6
        
        The book doesn't. Bella wants to do it right away and is totally frustrated with Edward's old fashionedness. -- nm - Amy Nov 21, 08:23
        
        teen-age sex is also romanticized in popular culture so why not also romanticize the other option some times? -- nm - Dano Nov 21, 08:07 4
        
        I don't agree that teenage sex is romanticized at all. -- nm - loosilu Nov 21, 08:08 3

        if we mean, "held up as a romantic ideal", really. -- nm - loosilu Nov 21, 08:12
    - pretty much. -- nm - znufrii Nov 21, 07:55
- oh man. -- nm - Max Nov 21, 07:53
So, based on those Fandango pre-sale records: Twilight is number 7 all-time, Miley was #6, and SATC was #10. - TFox Nov 21, 07:50 8
- doesn't less screens normally lead to higher PSA because of laws of supply and demand? -- nm - pilgrims and indians love mandy lane Nov 21, 07:56 7
  - Yeah, I'm not suggesting it's going to have that PSA. Just illustrating how silly the films in its vicinity of pre-sales have opened. - TFox Nov 21, 07:59 6
    - I love my non-hsx friends. they have no idea why I ask or what the numbers are. diana: "just over 15% less than iron man. that's my guess." -- nm - pilgrims and indians love mandy lane Nov 21, 08:01 5
      - SheFox doesn't play, but I find she is amazingly precient with playing openers. - TFox Nov 21, 08:11
      - So 90mil'ish. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 21, 08:04 3
        
        ok, maybe. I just looked at IM at $98m open. but regardless. what the crap does diana know? (besides pie, the log lady, and dreams about midgets.) -- nm - pilgrims and indians love mandy lane Nov 21, 08:06 2
        
        did you dream about midgets because of that Adam Sandler movie? -- nm - Max Nov 21, 08:08 1
        
        diana's last name is cooper. she is either "agent" or "coop." -- nm - pilgrims and indians love mandy lane Nov 21, 08:14
