Harry Potter vs Twilight: Is There Room for Both?

by Will on July 9, 2009 · Comments

in Commentary, Twilight

Twilight Harry Potter The Wall Street Journal has an intriguing look at the impact Twilight has had on the Harry Potter franchise.

Alicia Penner, a 13-year-old from Rocky Mountain House, Alberta, read the “Harry Potter” books 57 times. She watched the “Harry Potter” movies. Then last fall, a friend lent her the teen vampire book series “Twilight”—and she was hooked. The “Harry Potter” poster that used to hang on her bedroom wall has been replaced by the “Twilight” poster she got for her 13th birthday.

As a new “Harry Potter” movie opens next week, the bespectacled wizard faces a new challenge: how to compete for the attention of a young audience that has been growing up—and is starting to prefer the angsty teen romances and cooler, edgier characters of the “Twilight” books and movies.

Truth be told, I think there’s room in the world for both–I love Harry Potter but I also love Twilight. Each holds a special place in my heart for different reasons.

    Neither. They both look like old men, and Edward looks like he's about to throw up.

    It's kinda pointless having this poll on a Twilight/New Moon fansite. Isn't that the point of having this site? The only people who would come on this site are Twilight fans. Sure we like Harry Potter, but no one should expect to see it getting the most votes.
  • ohmy_feathers
    Heehee I referenced the biased polls on this site on a discussion post for my statistics class! :)
  • They're just for fun, not meant to be scientific in the least. I have a masters in a math-related field, so the bias is not lost on me. =)
  • LMCullen
    Will, your like Jeopardy smart. I knew it.
  • OhEdward (The Original)
    I will tell you what happened to young Alicia and why she is into Twilight now! She got those rumbly, sexy feelings from Twilight - and she liked it! She was ready for a little more teenage girly stuff and that's where she found it!

    Love Harry! Love J.K. - but love sexy, compassionate, not to mention hot - Edward!

    It's not really that hard to figure out - is it? Can't we like them all for different reasons? Just sayin.................
  • Livvy_Kate
    Even though eveyone knows what the result will be, it's interesting to find out how many Harry fans this site gets.
  • ohmy_feathers
    I like sagas in general... I also love Gregory Maguire's Wicked series and Anne Rice's vampire and witch series... I just love to read in general...I hope Stephenie Meyer makes a sequel to The Host!!
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]

  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    Wooo hoooo!!!
    My name is in there!!!
    **happy dance**

    About the article, I really don't think that if I love Harry Potter (and I do) I can't love Twilight (wich I do too).
    Are different types of magic. Besides, I started reading HP when I was 14, now I'm 22 and still love them! I almost die with the last one!
    I have lovers in the two sagas (and even in a third, LOTR LOL)

    And yes, I'm gonna watch the two movies!!
    (So excited! just 6 days to HP6!!)
  • ohmy_feathers
    haha who is your HP lover? I like Bill...well the Bill pictured in my head anyway!
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    AWW!! I really love Sirius (RIP) and the Weasley twins!
    Yes, my history of love is a kind of sad!! LOL
  • ohmy_feathers
    I know, I liked Sirius! It's so sad he was there for such a short time... :'(
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    Yes!! He was the best!!!
  • xhellokitty99x
    My fav Character is Luna... Iam reading The Dealthy Hallows and by were Ron and Hermoine finally kiss : ) I also think that Longbottom should have killed Bellatrix not Mrs, Weasley and it sucked that Tonks and Fred and Dobby died :***(
  • ohmy_feathers
    Oooh! I wanted him to kill her too!!!

    Oh spoilers!! But yea...it was all so sad!!! I was crying for like half of Book 7! And I listen to the audio books at work (yes I am a nerd) and I cry at work and really start to look like a crazy person! I cant tell them I am crying because of HP! I am a grown woman! LOL!

    I've been listening to New Moon and crying at work! Why do I do this to myself?! haha!
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    Yes, their deaths sucks!! =(
    But the Hermione/Ron kiss is the best one that I've ever read!!!

    I think that J.K. maybe wanted to show Molly's skills and her strength.
  • oh i love the weasley twins and draco hehehe.
  • Em1985
    Totally totally agree with you I started HP when i was 14 as well and I'm 23 now...I still love HP (always will ^^) can't wait for the movie on the 15th !!
    I only found out about Twilight when the movie came out because they speak french where I am, and the book hadn't come out yet here!
    I read all 4 Twi books in 8 days ! and adored it !!
    I say...go HP AND TWILIGHT FANS!!!! =) <3
  • Kim1524 (Fanfic Junkie)
    I still don't know why these movies are being compared.. they are completely different, the only similarity is that Rob has appeared in both! You could bring so many different movies into this like LOTR, Star Wars etc... just wait until Maximum Ride comes out, James Patterson novels have a huge following and I'm sure just because Hardwicke is directing it the comparisons will start again!
  • so true. i love both! harry potter came first to me, but both will have a lovely place in my heart like NMM said (i cant wait for next week!). :) both are great series and there's no need for competition cos they are both different. the only similarity is their both classified as fantasy. harry potter kicks ass butso does jacob black! LOL
  • Mr_Darcy
    Hey MCNutters!

    Good to see you and right on!

    I'm right there with you about both series. Got my tickets for HP6 already!

    It's funny, my first experience with Twilight was seeing a Facebook flair that said "Edward was a Hufflepuff" and so I got curious and checked it out.

    The two can certainly coexist in my world!!
  • *in English accent* Hello Mr. Darcy.
    i dont have tickets yet. should i even try now? lol. by the way, where do u live?

    LOL edward as hufflepuff..well yeah Rob played Cedric, a hufflepuff i think. thats how i first saw Rob. and then i saw Twilight and was like HE'S ALIVE! LOL

    i think i might bawl my eyes out for HP6. and yes BOTH CAN CO-EXIST quite nicely. :) J.K. is one of my fave authors. she will go down in history! wait, she already is lol.
  • Mr_Darcy
    Well, knowing how quickly tickets sell out it may be worth your while to purchase them ahead of time, depending on what day you wish to see it. Most cinemas still have tickets available for opening day.

    Mr. Darcy lives at Pemberley in Derbyshire of course : )

    Oh yeah, so far the only movie that's been able to evoke tears from me is The Pursuit of Happyness (I think that one just gets to husbands, brother-in-law and MMA sparring partner was bawling his eyes out too). This one has a lot of potential though. My wife certainly will be crying.
  • no i dont wanna see it opening day or opening weekend even...maybe? maybe a sunday or monday?

    i meant the man behind the mask of Mr. Darcy. your just full of mysteries, aren't you Mr. Darcy? (i first spelled Dracy LOL)

    aww the pursuit of happyness was lovely. my dad didnt like it much though. he preferred action movies lol.
    i cry in most sappy, sad movies if its done really well or im just emotional. i cried sometimes during LOTR too.
    im just a sap lol.
  • Nicnixs - Never Squeeeee!!!
    I have this theory that Mr Darcy is actually Rob in disguise....or perhaps Peter :)

    No mere mortal would need to cloak themselves in this much secrecy :)
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    My brother keeps trying to convince me to read HP. It just doesn't spark my interest :P
  • *LE GASP* BLASPHEMY! lol
    it has fantasy like twilight only more. there's more magic, more action/adventure even a little romance. there's HILARIOUS parts, sad parts, it has EVERYTHING. its such a great series. its not really a kid's book. all kinds of people from all ages read it. its a classic now. :)

    guess u dont like magic. /le sigh/

    but i might just take up your brother's old job and do it myself lol.
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    LOL! Yes! I dont believe in magic, I just believe in werewolves and loyal, hot men! hahah
  • Mr_Darcy
    But werewolves are all about magic : (

    But your beliefs are noble : )

    Well I must be off now. See you Monday
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    I know Darcy *wink*

    Have a nice weekend!
  • ScarletI *Team Pea Coat!!!*
    LMAO!

    "I quote John Lennon as saying 'I don't belive in Beatles. I just believe in me'...It's a good point there. After all...He was the walrus...I could be the walrus and I still have to bum rides off of people."

    LMAO!

    NAME THE MOVIE! NAME THE MOVIE!!!
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    Uhh! Uhhh!

    Ferris Bueller's Day Off!!!!!!!

    *does hammer dance* Oh-uh! Watch out!
    *flips, does Vanilla Ice backwards walk*

    Do I get a prize?????

    'm going to watch Underworld -Rise of the Lycans.

    I'll log on tomorrow! Night sweety!
  • ScarletI *Team Pea Coat!!!*
    I would give you a prize if you were on now...or if you were going to be on
    later tonight since I'm completely alone tonight (woo hoo) and will get to
    read FF and pick on people into the wee hours of the morning...

    But I guess no prize for you.

    Pitty.
  • you dont believe in magic yet you believe in werewolves?! honey magic is real, werewolves arent. LOL

    as for loyal hot men i have yet to find one.../another le sigh/ guess their non-existant too...
  • Patience Isn't My Specialty
    LOL Nutty! I was being sarcastic :P
  • i k now u were being sarcastic PIMS so was I! :P
  • TheHoneyBear_ILYHarper'sBazaar
    I LOVE HARRY POTTER AND TWILIGHT.
    HP was like the epitome of the whole 'teen books phenomenon' several years ago.
    I think HP started this all. And of course, TWILIGHT is a big part of me too, as HP.
    Both of these series took over my life... and I don't blame them. They're both inspirations to many people. And I admire how these simple books have huge effects on people...

    Also I want to point out that Harry Potter beats Twilight any day when it comes to writing and character development. Pssh. No doubt about that. I love HP because of its characters and the 'unique'-ness of it. I love how JK Rowling is very descriptive and in detail about every little thing. And I adore it. So, so much. It just drags you in with the fantasy. And I like how she gives this really nice names to candies. LOL.

    But what I also love about Twilight is the angst, romance, drama, suspense, and the thrill that makes you pull an all-nighter! LOL. You can relate to it sooo much. It has a great storyline, which drags you in to the fantasy world of vampires. It's amazing how SM can just think of vampires after having a dream about a girl and a boy in a simple meadow. It's beyond me.


    Both HP and Twilight had taken over, have taken over, and will be taking over my life as I grow up. There's enough room to have them both sitting and guarding my heart...
  • Nicnixs - Never Squeeeee!!!
    Exactly!!! Why do people think it's one or the other :)

    Ikea make 500,000,000 book shelves every year....beacuse the more stories the better :)
  • JakesChewToy
    If the Potter ppl would have just released their stinking film last fall, they wouldn't have to even worry about it. I love HP, but I hope they loose out on some of that money. It serves them right for making us wait an extra 8 months just to make a buck.
  • ohmy_feathers
    *raises wine glass* cheers to that! I was sooo PO'ed!! but I am super excited for next week!!
  • JakesChewToy
    At the time, I thought about just not going at all when it came out, cuz ya know, that would show them.

    Now I can't wait to go.
  • They will either lose money, or gain for that move.

    They're not stupid. They knew Twilight was the next big thing, and they KNEW people would choose to see Twilight over HP6. Most parents would not give their kid 20 dollars to see two movies in one week. They'd have been insane to try to stand up to Twilight. It may not be better, that's all a matter of opinion, but because Twilight was NEW, it would have been the first choice.

    The movie would have bombed if they had released it.
  • I thought the original Twilight release date was December 12th. So it would have been three weeks after Harry Potter. Nobody knows FOR SURE why Harry Potter was moved. Some say because they didn't want to rival Twilight (which I find hard to believe), some say it was because Warner Brothers didn't have any summer movies planned and HP is going to be a definite money maker. Who knows the real reason?

    Either way, I don't think it would have bombed. There are WAYYYY too many HP fans around the world. Definitely more than Twilight has (or at least had when the movie originially came out). I mean, Harry Potter has been translated into something like 67 languages. It's really unlikely that all of those readers would decide they didn't want to see the movie.

    But that's just my opinion.
  • Maddi
    Harry Potters release date was moved because the release of Dark Knight was such a hit in July, and the previous HP did amazing at box offices in July. Those are the reasons that Warner Bros gave when they announced the date change.

    But the think about HP is that the next 3 movies will have alot of romance and things that the other books didnt have. HP is 16 in this story... its when everything gets really started in that department.
  • xhellokitty99x
    I think HP 6 was moved cause they had planned 2 open Harry Potter Island in Island of Adventure in the fall of 09... so they wanted 2 hype of the movie and the park at the same time... but it bite them in the butt cause Harry Potter island is not half way done...
  • ohmy_feathers
    I am so going to that HP Island!! Well, whenever it finally is finished!
  • hprules4ever
    First of all, I think it's stupid to put up a poll like this on a site were mostly people who prefere Twilight would show up, it's predictable and ridicolous. And second if Harry Potter would've been released back in November it still would've made big money. Given the state of the economy poeple rather go to the movies than anything else, and people were not going to hold off on going to the movies for three weeks just to wait for Twilight - duh. And all the Harry Potter have always been faced with potential threats, but they still outshine. Why? Because the HP movies have built an audience, a faithful one. Another factor is one so visibly absent from the Twilight movie: an actual good script, good actors and a good movie. Harry Potter is always luring in people who don't read the books because the movies are actually good. And if someone else gives me the lame excuse of the budget I'ma bust a cap in their ass - 'cause money don't excuse that bad dialogue and the bad acting. Thank you.
  • ilust4edward
    I do love the HP movies. But why are you on here if you don't like the twilight movie series? If you are just a fan of the books why go to a site called Newmoonmovie.org?

    don't hate =)
  • hprules4ever
    I'm here because I've only seen Twilight, which sucked ass. But I think New Moon could be better. And because I am a fan of the books. But here we're talking about HP and Twilight and HP is better so I'm gonna defend it.
  • JakesChewToy
    They didn't even move the Twilight movie up until HP jumped ship. If everyone would have kept their original places, they would have come out a month apart and the Potter movie would have been first. Teenage brains don't work like that. There is no way the masses would have said " well, that movie looks good and all, but I think I'll wait a month for the next one". Twilight wasn't a huge household name until after the flick.
  • ohmy_feathers
    Well I can see the logic, but as a fan waiting FOREVER, it sucks! I don't think it would have bombed, but I understand how they would want to make as much $ as possible... And I think it could have stood up against Twilight, but I agree, that they made a smart move by not releasing it at the same time... I just wish they didn't wait soooo long!! :(
  • JakesChewToy
    From what I've heard, the move had nothing to do with Twilight. WB made a wad of cash on their Dark Knight movie and since they didn't have crap slated for this year, they moved Potter back to keep the accountants happy.

    But I guess I'm kind of happy about it know. There isn't squat coming out this summer besides HP.
  • ohmy_feathers
    Yea I'm not sure on all the details... but I am sure glad I have something to hold me over until Nov.!!
  • JakesChewToy
    Cheers!
  • marie_C - Team switz
    ok i loved twilight but u know it made 70 millions in the first week and then it went down drastically. harry potter does much more than that in a week of premiere and hold on strong for the ones to come(it is just a fact) and by the way hp was going to come first wich means that the threat was for twilight not hp. and i have to said that hp movies are really close to the books and that is why they are so popular if u compare them to the twilight movie. but i have hope for new moon and i can't wait for neither.
  • CullenFan
    I was so pissed, but I'm not gonna lie, I picked up my midnight tix as soon as I could. I'll bet that's the case with most true fans, even though we were burned by WB.
  • ohmy_feathers
    If you are a HP fan, then you wont abandon it for Twilight... Thats like saying when you get a husband you wont love your dad anymore...Freudian? LOL I am crazy today!
  • Catherinelluc - Caterina :)
    Oh that is such a good interpretation of it!!!I feel exactly that way...I grew up with HP, but I have room in my heart for twilight too...I will def see both of the movies!!!
  • 5ctBauble
    i disagree with the story above. The kids that like HP when they were young will still like HP now cos the series and characters have matured and grown up as well.

    But Twilight trumps all in my eyes LOL
  • jumpjump
    I love both stories, but the writing in Harry Potter is much better than Twilight. I'm going to be in that small percentage on a Twilight site that says Harry Potter. It doesn't make me any less of a Twilight fan.
  • CullenFan
    I agree with you here, too.
  • lozerontheblock
    I love both of them a lot, but i think i would have to go with harry potter as my love. Both movie/books have amazing characters and scenes don't get my wrong but i just wont abandon harry potter for twilight.
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    Me neither.
    I love them both and I can have them both, so I'm a happy person =)
  • marie_C - Team switz
    really why bother to choose?, i love them both like a crazy obsess girl and i won't pick. they both are good for different reasons.go twiholic and potterholic
  • _teambellatrix_
    I love both of them,well maybe HP slightly more but HP was my first 'love', b4 Twilight came along, I never forget that.
  • EdwardForSure
    There's definitely room for both. Like you said, they are both in my heart for different reasons. I love them both and can't wait for the Half Blood Prince to be released! :) And New Moon ofc. But that I'll have to wait for a little while longer.. How sad.
  • HugAVampire_PunchAWerewolf
    I love both and cannot wait for both!
    I am taking half a day off of work on Wednesday so I can go see Harry Potter the minute it hits theaters.
    And I will also be skipping a few classes on November 20 so that I can see New Moon the minute it gets to theaters.
    It will be grand old times!
  • ohmy_feathers
    I love both! So I will be going to see both!! Woo hoo! :)
  • Kay
    me too!!! I love HP movies ( never read the books), but the Twilight Saga is my no. 1
  • ohmy_feathers
    OMG! You HAVE to read them! As with most books turned into movies, the books are way better! And the HP movies are damn good, so that is saying a lot! :) I highly recommend you scoot your little rob avatar to your nearest bookstore!! or you can borrow them from someone...but you may not want to give them back!! :)
  • Laura
    I've been reading Harry Potter for more than 10 years now and i am a huge fan, I actually saw Twilight because I wanted to see what Rob was doing after Harry Potter. I read the Twilight books and i am waiting to see New Moon but I am and will always be a Harry Potter fan, way more.
  • BiteMe. Team SexyAudiDriver
    Is that poll really far when it's posted on a Twilight website? :P
    For me it just seems like the Harry Potter movies have been spread over too long of a time period. The hype has died down a bit. It's not so much that twilight has replaced it. Anyone get what I'm trying to say? Am I wrong?
  • ohmy_feathers
    I think you are right with that theory... well with both theories! haha!
  • pamloves
    i get what you are saying. the were spread over a long time.
  • LMCullen
    I hear ya! But its just a poll. It really doesn't have any significance. Most ppl are choosing either Twilight, or both. And since we don't have a site that is both of the Harry Potter movies/books and the Twilight Movies/books, this is our only outlet. See what I'm saying? All in good fun : )
  • BiteMe. Team SexyAudiDriver
    Oh I know it's a joke!!! (hence the :P ) I think it's funny, before I saw the results I was laughing at how much poor Harry's going to get owned.
  • LMCullen
    haha completely owned. I still like the HP movies. Never read the books.
  • pamloves
    personally twilight saga is better but that is because i never finished reading the potter books. only read the first three books. i just never had the time to read them and still don't have the time. i love the movies watched the fifth one today on HBO. i have my ticket for the midnight showing on tuesday as well.
    so twilight wins in this round. the writing i could care less about that. i suck at writing. it could have the worst writing and by the best book because of the storylines.
  • ohmy_feathers
    But the last three are the best!! well if you ever have time, I suggest giving it another try!

    I on the other hand do acknowledge that the writing of HP is waaay more advanced than the Twilight series... but I also acknowledge that this was Stephenie's first book, and damn did she do a great job! I think Stephenie's work will flourish with time and I can't wait for more!!
  • BiteMe. Team SexyAudiDriver
    I totally agree. I always buy a book because of the story, not the writing.
  • ohmy_feathers
    I love a good story! Right now I am reading The Wizard of Oz... I mean it's a classic but it is for kids, so IMO the writing is pretty mediocre... But the storyline is great! Not saying Twilight is mediocre btw, I think she is a great writer and obviously very creative, I just think Rowling is like from another universe or something...
  • I think that this poll is kind of silly, because obviously the majority of people viewing this website are Twilight fans. There's nothing saying at all that they may even remotely like Harry Potter but we know 99% like Twilight, so of course Twilight is going to win in the poll.

    I'm lucky enough to be apart of the generation that grew up on Harry Potter. I love it, and it can NEVER be replaced to me. Come on, my name is 'xtonks' LOL. Twilight has caught my interest, but I will still be seeing HP6 the day it comes out, just like I'll be seeing New Moon the day it comes out, and I'd expect that it'd be the same for everyone else who enjoys both.

    A poster may be replaced, but that does not mean that that kid won't show attention to both. They made a good move by pushing HP6 back and not releasing it so close to Twilight. It makes it very easy and reasonable for youngsters to convince parents to let them see both. Being as all of the books are out for both series as well, there should be no fight over book sales. Of course Twilight will be CURRENTLY selling more, because Harry Potter is considered 'old news.' We won't know who truly sold more until they're both old news, and even then, libraries, sharing, used book stores, ect. You can never truly calculate how many people have read a book.

    There may be some who will pick up Twilight and never pick up Harry Potter, but in that case, I say, if not Twilight, something else could have stood in their way. There will also be plenty of people who will pick up Harry Potter and never pick up Twilight. It goes from person to person, but both can definitely exist. In my book, I love Harry Potter more, but my money and fandom goes out to both.
  • nemesis_robward's girl =D
    first???
  • nemesis_robward's girl =D
    crazy computer, i'm barely first and now that i'm, it stucks ggrrr.....

    ok, well i also think there is room for both...i mean, they both introduce us to magic fictional worlds, each in their own way and are very very different..........but to speak the truth, i don't judge or blame the little girl, hhahahha, i think twilight has something else tht captivates us and is just impossible to scape from...once a twilighter always a twilighter!!!!!!!
  • R_Pattz_isMINE;)
    I agree with you:D
    once a twilighter always a twilighter.
    :D that shud be a quote now haha.
  • nemesis_robward's girl =D
    XD hhehe, yeah it's been my lemma since twilight caught me and never let go of me =D, but i'm sure that like u and me, there are so many ppl here that identifies w/ it..... **jump up a/ down** wink*wink*
  • twilightsagabiggestfan
    um yeah twilight won big time and yes theres room for both if not they can get harry potter out hahahaha good idea
  • HyperactiveGrasshopper
    I LOVE BOTH! There is room in my heart for all things Twilight and all things HP! They are equal and non-comparable (to me!).

    I agree! I love the Twilight saga, but I've been a HP fan going on 10 years...that's a hard bond to break!! THey are both awesome and not comparable at all.

    hahaha.
  • ohmy_feathers
    Haha that was dorkalicious! you are silly...but I like it!! :D
  • kerbear585
    I don't like Harry Potter at all! I am not interested in the whole witchcraft thing that they do. I only watched part of the one that Rob was in, only cuz he was in it.

    Definitely love Twilight and will die a Twilight fan/fanatic. Best books and story line that I have read in a LONG time....and I am 24. Oh well, everyone has to love something that gives them inspiration and hope. And that is what it does for me =]
  • R_Pattz_isMINE;)
    Yes i agree with kerbear585: best books&story line that i have read in a LONGGG time:D
    best booooks! and i have never been a harry potter fan... dont like the magic&wizards stuff...
    I like better VAMPIRE ROMANCE!:D like The amazinggg Twilight Saga(:
  • sugarysweet
    Twilight, hands down - no competition.
  • pamloves
    personally twilight saga is better but that is because i never finished reading the potter books. only read the first three books. i just never had the time to read them and still don't have the time. i love the movies watched the fifth one today on HBO. i have my ticket for the midnight showing on tuesday as well.
  • B.C
    Well Of-Course Twilight

    I wont Lie I love the Harry -Potter Movies but the books not so much . I have read them but I just could not read them more than once . Now Twilight , New moon , Eclipse , Breaking-Dawn I have lost count on how many times I have read them. I am going to see the new Harry Potter movie because I do love them(Movies) but yeah I pick Twilight.
  • mak1026
    I love both HP and Twilight, for different reasons.

    Overall, the edge for me has to go to HP. How many would have never read Twilight if they hadn't first fallen in love with books through the boy wizard?

    My first love is still and always will be LOTR.
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    LOL
    The same here!! I read LOTR when I was really little! =) Then I read HP and fell in love with it and then, a lot of years later, I read Twilight and yes. Now I love it too.
    And I will always love them!

    Before of Twilight, I read Song of Ice and Fire!! But this one isn't finished yet =(
  • ohmy_feathers
    I have never read LOTR, but it is on my list! Is it an easy read? I started reading Wuthering Heights (because of Eclipse) and only got halfway through... :( I hate not following through on a book!

    I am showing my inner nerdness today!!

    *sulks off*
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    LOL!
    Don't worry OMF, I'm a nerd as well!! LOL

    I will lie to you, if I say that LOTR is in fact an "easy" read LOL At least not when you have to read about Tom Bombadil =) But even when sometimes has too much descriptions, once you take it, you cannot leave it!!
    It's such an epic story... sure you will love it =)
  • ohmy_feathers
    Well I have them on my to do list so maybe soon I can rave with you about it too! I really liked the movies and I am sure the books are way better!

    I have so many books on my to do list!! I am a total book junkie! I got a book in the mail the other day and my BF told me I had a problem...He just doesn't understand!! Right now I have Hunger Games, The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane, The Count of Monte Cristo, The Sookie Stackhouse Books, The House of Night series, and tons of fanfic!! Somehow I will read them all!!
  • xhellokitty99x
    I just finished reading The Half Blood Prince and Iam at the "The Battle at Hogwarts" in the Dealthy Hallows and I have forgotten how GREAT the Harry Potter books are... I been a Harry fan since the 1st movie came out I got my Midnight tickets 4 next tuesday. .. But Twilight is different I have not been in love with such a great story and characters that iam with Twilight... Twilight got me 2 read other books mind U I was the kind of reader that only read the Harry Potter books... But I have 2 say both U cant compare one to another... They are both GREAT BOOKS!!!
  • ohmy_feathers
    Aww so sad!! I always cry on the last two books!
  • xhellokitty99x
    Me 2 :****(
  • cclore ~ Team CW for BD
    Oh man! I love both!

    I am really looking forward to next week to see the new HP movie. I must confess that I've never read the books, but I plan on it. I've loved the movies since the very first one. It's something my kids and I have shared.

    Not gonna abandon HP just because of my insane obsession over all things Twilight!
  • Majnona (H.N)
    I used to be a HP fan myself. I wasn't that much of a huge fan but I always went to the movies and I read the two first books, then I just abandoned it because I simply didn't have enough time neither did I feel like I NEED to continue reading . Then twilight came out and did the trick for me. I read the books and watched the movie and now I'm all hooked like I never was! I think there's always a room for both but for me, Twilight gets the upper hand

    and oh now that someone's already mentioned it, I LOVED and will always LOVE LOTR (books and movies)
  • same here nmm.org
    HP will always hold a special place in my heart
    but i still <3 <3<3 twilight
  • queenannie
    Harry Potter is adventure. Twilight is romance. you can't really compare the 2 but they are both necessary. at age 29 I am obsessed with love stories but it's fun to see a teenager kick an old man's ass sometimes too.
  • Adiene
    I like them both very much. Great stories with colorful characters. The mystery vs magic is great. I can't wait for the rest of the movies to come out !!

    If I just HAD to pick one over the other i would have to choose Twilight. I can just relate to it on differenct aspects.

    Vampires have always been a fav of mine since i watched my first vamp movie at the very young age of 5. While all the other little girls wanted to be ballerinas and vets I wanted to be a Vampire.... maybe that is another reason I would choose it over HP. *giggles*
  • CJean>Leader of Team Leg Hitch
    Team Twilight all the way.

    Enough said. :)
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    And I love you though! :-P
  • CJean>Leader of Team Leg Hitch
    HA!! Sorry, I just am not into the whole HP stuff. Course, I've never tried reading them, so I guess I shouldn't say anything. At first I thought Twilight sounded really stupid, and look where I am now. :)

    And it has always bothered me that the media always compares Twilight with HP. They are completely different, know what I mean?
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    Yes, I know... and I'm agree with you.

    There's plenty of room for them in the world and in my heart, head, pocket and bag LOL
  • CJean>Leader of Team Leg Hitch
    LMAO!!!
    You can have both I guess...but when asked, you better say you like Twilight better. I'll just pretend that that is true, and we won't have to worry. lol
  • zzzzzzzzzz
    I personally love both series. I'm currently reading DH for the first time, and I adored HP and the Half-Blood Prince the book. I read the Twilight saga first before HP. I just recently started reading them. They take longer for me to read just cause I'm more interested in vampires but they are still really good books. Anyways, I feel as though you shouldn't have to choose and you should be able to like both series. They are entirely different and you shouldn't have to compare them! Although, TTS is currently the new fad... HP has been around for a while and some people may have lost interest. Back to the point *shakes head for rambling on about nothing* I love both sagas, but I think I like TTS just a tad better! ;D
  • 30yearoldtwifan "Team Slade"
    Ummm Holy Scary picture! Im going to have nightmares after seeing that one lol

    Not a Harry Potter fan, so it doesnt matter to me how it does, I never got into it.
  • ohmy_feathers
    That pic is reallly freaky!! haha! Try looking at some hot Rob pics... I'm sure that will cure your nightmare! :)

    Oh and if you couldnt tell from my gazillion posts on this, I am a huge HP fan, so I would def. recommend it! It is really a great story! But hey to each their own! I just like pushing literature like I'm George Yung! LOL! :)
  • 30yearoldtwifan "Team Slade"
    Yeah I should try the HP books, there just so HUGE lol Maybe I will try them, I need a good series, the dam FF is like my obsession now, so many to pic from lol
  • ohmy_feathers
    Yea they are ginormous, but worth it! I just finished reading some fanfic (W.A.) aggh i need something else! got any recommendations? :)
  • 30yearoldtwifan "Team Slade"
    OMG I have so many LOL

    Email me and I will pass them along, Some are "adult content" and I dont wanna leave them here lol

  • TheLionFellIn<3W/Ceci-ROBECI
    Hmm I must say that picture got some giggles from my pissed off bootie after that Comic Con post
    *sighs*
    I like Harry Potter... the MOVIES... never read the books... they're awesome movies BUT my heart is truly devoted to Edward Cullen and that amazing world the Queen Bee created for all of us... those Harry Potter movies do have a run for their money...
  • RobismySL_ TeamPatzz&Stewy
    I like Harry Potter..But I will never, I repeat " Never " Love it as much as I LOVE the twilight saga.. The twilight saga is forever written in my heart, it is a part of me. Does that sound creepy? lol.

    I still watch HP movies, and I have to say that I have read HP one, two and three. I have book 4 but thats only because Rob is Cedric.lol. And I have all the movies, but my favorite is obvious. (Robs in it) *Swoon*. Its just The Twilight saga, is sooooo Well AMAZING, WONDERFUL, BRILLAINT, and it feels so REALISTIC.

    Therefore, my heart is fully devoted to Twilight. HP takes up only a very small percentage of my heart, except for the 4th movie. =)
  • HugAVampire_PunchAWerewolf
    Haha, that is how I feel.
    Although Harry will always have a wonderful place in my heart... I sometimes fall asleep during the first half of the movies. Lol

    Twilight keeps you on the edge.. it is a romance.
    HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE ROMANCE??
  • RobismySL_ TeamPatzz&Stewy
    That pic is so very creepy.. !
  • Edwardlover89
    I personally dont like Harry Potter, never did. It just doesnt interest me. I have the first three books, but I only read the first one and half of the second one. I never got to third one cuz I got bored of the 2nd and couldnt finish it.
  • Lali [T. Jacksper in Uniform!]
    Bad girl! LOL

    The third one is awesome!
    And the rest just improves the awesomeness =)
  • sasstwi
    Okay, people have to realize:

    Comparing Harry Potter and Twilight is like comparing apples and oranges.
    Seriously. They both have the fantasy thing going on in both of them. And they both have rob in the cast. But other than that, they are completely different!

    There should and is room for both.
  • HugAVampire_PunchAWerewolf
    Exactly!
    Harry Potter is about Wizards and the world of magic! It is an adventure series where your imagination can flow.
    Twilight is about Vampires and Shape Shifters. It is a world of scary creatures. It is a romance series where your heart aches for Bella and her constant struggle to decide between two amazing guys.
    Oh how I wish the real world were a little like both.
  • sasstwi
    exactly.
    i'm with you on that wish... :)
  • HugAVampire_PunchAWerewolf
    Hehe..
    Then my life would be so interesting with all the adventure and magic! And romantical with my vampire lover. Yummy.
    But my other man wouldn't be a shape shifter / werewolf. He would for sure be a wizard. LOL!
  • sasstwi
    AMEN. :)
  • xhellokitty99x

  • ♥teamswixx♥
    i never really got into Harry Potter,i tried back in Middle School when all my friends were but i just couldn't i don't know why really.I LOVE Twilight though,i see them as two different things..like idk only thing maybe that can be in comparison that i can think of is "vampires" and "wizards".Harry Potter seems more fantasny epicly type i say they can exist together cuse they're nothing a like to me..maybe comparing Twilight to Vampire Diares or something would make more sense idk..hah
  • nerwen_aldarion
    Twilight wins no contest with me I can't stand Harry Potter. I'm a college student and I have never understood the obsession with a book series that came out when I was a fourth grader.

    It truly is a kids book with singing hats and invisible schools but more than that it is insulting with terrible phrases like Muggles and Mudbloods, the entire series is basically about how wizards are good and humans are bad.

    Twilight is different, Edward doesn't insult other people, in fact he envys the humans and their mortality. It also has real values and is much more grown up.

    Singing hat versus sparkling vampire?

    As I said no contest.
  • Em1985
    Everyone has the right to their opinions don't get me wrong, but I find it strange that you judge HP (Muggles and Mudbloods being terrible phrases).
    Yea, out of context it sounds discriminitive against humans...but JK didn't write it as something to be mean towards humans but from the point of view of the "bad" ppl in the book...

    I doubt that I'm the only one here who is a HP fan who has noticed the link from HP with the real world (cloaked evil ppl who hate "Mudbloods" and "Muggles", Hermione who wants to stop house elf slavery )

    THOSE are just some things that make HP more than just a "kid's" book.
    but a good start would be to read the books before saying it's a kid's book.
  • nerwen_aldarion
    I read the first book and I just couldn't take it. Can you name a real person in the book that is actually represented as good???

    No, Harry's aunt and uncle lock him up in a chest with spiders all over it (yeah that would happen in the real world) and Harry is some big wizard hero because he was bopped on the head by Voldermort and the guy disappeared.

    Um okay????

    The truth is that this book came out when I was in grade school and now I'm nearly 20 and I can't help but see it as the book all the kids would read still. I mean I've just grown up, I don't read Babysitters Club or Beverly Clearly anymore either and if I did I might be considered weird that I would read a "kids" book.

    Harry Potter is a child's book, singing hats and wizards on broomsticks just don't interest me that much anymore. I want more dark and twisty things than HP
  • Nicnixs - Never Squeeeee!!!
    You don't sound 20 at all and you're talking absolute crap :)

    And that fact that you only read one book out of 7, and it was her first one, means you can't really have an informed opinion on the subject.

    If you like darky and twisty, why did you shut the book because the characters seemed a little mean???

    But that's for the laugh :) LOL
  • messi2953
    You idiot. Twilight has no moral values at all-look at it properly and pretend you have some intelligence. Bella is happy to abandon her family and friends for a guy who she's known a year. This is in comparison to the real morals in Harry Potter such as friendship conquers, love conquers, perserverance pays off, and sacrifice for other people also pays off. What does Bella have to give up? Charlie? No. Jacob? No. Her daughter? No. Edward? No. See a pattern here? You must be either stupid or deluded to believe that Twilight has more moral values than Harry Potter. The series isn't about how wizards are good and humans are bad, the whole point is how people insulting the "Muggles" end up getting killed and eventually defeated, so that the true-hearted people can live their lives and co-exist peacefully with Muggles.
    Of course, I respect your view but you need a proper argument-what are these values in Twilight? And I have read all four Twilight books multiple times.
  • Team Robward & Kristella
    I think there's room for both...the books are in different genres. Harry Potter is fantasy and Twilight is romance. These two books shouldn't even be compared and they target different markets.

  • Team November Kicks A$$
    I love both but I love Twilight much much muuuuuuuuuuucccccccccchhhhhhhhhh more because I read each of the twlight books in ONE DAY and its not because there were less pages but it was and IS a PAGE TURNER and I WANT MORE OF IT HELL IF SM WRITES MORE OF IT I LL BE THE HAPPIEST GIRL ON EARTH and the Harry Potter books I finish one a week and then I was happy with the ending but after that I just put them back in the shelves and havent touch them since as for the Twilight books I havent been able to put them DOWN hehehehehhe

    Very interesting article. I sent to my boyfriend to read it, cos he is an avid fan of Harry Potter and thinks Twilight is only for virgin teenage girls (I am 28 and completely hooked with twilight). Maybe it will change his opinion a bit...
  • kris_rocks
    Very interesting article. I already sent it to my boyfriend cos he is an avid fan of Harry Potter and thinks twilight is only for virgin teenage girls. I am 28 and totally hooked with the series. Maybe it will change his opinion, who knows, hopefully! Certainly dragging him to see New Moon with me!!!
  • theharlequinade
    I don't think that Twilight and Harry Potter are comparable, except in that they are both very famous books with lots of fans.
    I've been a Twilighter since the book first came out, but very recently I've got into Harry Potter too.
    I think the two both provide different things. Twilight is more of a reality. It seems more like it could actually happen than Harry Potter does. When I want my fix of vampire luvin', I go to Twilight, but Harry Potter provides more of a fantasy world. Something completely different and new.
  • JaspersGirl

  • MichieeHeartsRob
    I feel SO out of place here. I have never read the HP books.
    Like, ever.

    And everyone here is raving about it ):
    But I thought the movies were cool, and always wondered what it would be like to read the series. Unfortunately, I kind of lost my interest in wizards and the movies, and went to Borders one day, and found 'Twilight'. That was when I became an avid reader.

    And I've always found 'Harry Potter' as a dark book, so yeah.
    I go for 'Twilight'!
    Woot, woot.
  • RobismyRomeo (RIMR_)
    On a TWILIGHT site, we are polled as to which series we like MORE? or equally? lol

    tsk tsk....wrong move grey-face.

    Your pathetic attempt at wit came back to bite you in the @ss didn’t it?

    Let me give you some advice…Look around…see this…the writing on the screen? This is what we call a blog…it’s this wonderful little place where people like to come discuss differing opinions on any and every topic…now…if that’s TOO complicated for you or if you’re afraid of “trouble”…you might try Noggin.com…it’s this great little website for people of your intelligence level with games and coloring pages.

    Now…run off and play…the adults want to have a conversation.

    LOVE YOU Lali!

    I know, I have some really bad habits, right? LOL
  • Both series are good in different ways and have to do with two completely different subjects. I think they are only compared because of the big hype around both of them.
  • twilightgirl118
    TWILIGHT IS SOOO MUCH BETTER THAN HARRY POTTER...HARRY POTTER WAS JUST CONFUSING AND HAD TOO MUCH MAGIC. TWILIGHT IS LIKE REAL LIFE AND MORE INTERESTING... I AM MAKING THIS PONIT BECAUSE I DON'T LIKE TO READ BUT I READ THE TWILIGHT SERIES AND FELL IN LOVE AND WHEN I TRIED TO READ HARRY POTTER I COULDN'T READ THE 2 BOOK. <3 LIVE <3 LOVE <3 TWILIGHT <3

    How is Twilight more like real life?

    -Vampires
    -Werewolves
    -Bella jumps off a cliff just to hear someone's voice-that happens every day
    -Edward wants marriage whereas Bella wants sex
    -The vampires sparkle
    -Bella abandons her friends and family for Edward
    -A halfvampire, half human child.
    -It's clearly because you don't like reading that you found Harry Potter confusing and haven't read Harry Potter.

    So much like real life.

    I was a harry potter fan before twilight came along. I am more of the book fan than the movies for both. They are different, therefore, I love them for different reasons.
    Since I am a romantic at heart, Twilight speaks more to me.
    And we cannot compare the movies, since HP movies have so much better budgets and also really good behind the set ppl working on it. JK Rowling is tougher and more strict about the movies as well. Which I am glad, I wish S. Meyer was that too but I guess she was just happy to have her books made into movies.
    And yes, I have pre-ordered the HBP tickets :) Going to see it on 18 July. I hope it's awesome, as I didn't like HP5 movie. It's my least fave among the HP movies.
    Of course, I am going to see NM movie as well when it's out, in fact, this time around, I have a higher expectation for this coming twimovie, with a better budget and all. I hope I will not be disappointed. I was ok with the first twmovie, since I didn't have any expectation at all, except, I hope it didn't suck too much. LOL. Kristen and Rob did great so it turned out pretty ok.
    The drawing of Edward and Harry .. hmm ... abit ugly ..sorry ... especially edward..he looked so OLD...lol

    I definitely think both are equally amazing. I loved the Harry Potter series way before I'd even heard of Twilight; there's no way I can just forget about them completely. Twilight and Harry Potter are just two different types of Fantasy books, so they shouldn't even be compared. You can absolutely love them both; I do!
  • Didn't this happen when they found out that HP6 moved to July and Twilight to HP6 'date'? they started calling Robert a "Harry Potter Traitor" because of that and now they bring it up again because HP6 is coming out. I mean, they're both good books, and HP don't need to worry bout Twilight stealing their thunder.

    I've grown up watching the HP movies, but the only reason that more teens are attacted to Twilight is that it's a romance.

    Anyways, to sum it all up, The main thing is that, HP and Twilight have in common is that they're both fantasy novels and Warner Bros. don't need to put the blame on Twilight on this.

    Where on earth did you get that picture? Its terrifying! :P
    But I'm not a Harry Potter fan. The books were badly written so i'm avoiding the movies.
  • cutesweetiezzz
    I never read the Harry Potter books and I don't I'll plan to. They just don't seem like something I would read. I've watched the movies and I didn't really like them. I think the Twilight Saga is something more suitable for me and I absolutely love it. Right now, no books can compare to the Twilight Saga for me.
  • neev
    I lovelovelooove both!!
    I read my first Harry Potter book when I was about 11 years old, and I totally fell in love... so I've been a fan about 10 years now. I think that HP series is a big part of me, and it has affected me in many ways. I grew up reading those books.
    And then I found Twilight, and it had almost the same effect on me. I totally fell in love!
    And I'm happy I have both in my life! Can't pick my favorite, and luckily I don't even have to :)

    I probably will keep reading both series's over and over again till death do us apart LOL

    PS that picture is just creepy! Very very CREEPY. Yuck..
  • TeamRobward<3
    I love both HP and Twilight. I started reading the HP series when I was 8, so I practically grew up with it. It holds an extremely special place in my heart, it's a part of my childhood, so it can't be replaced, ever.
    I read the first Twilight novel only last year, in August. I had no clue what it was about, the main (and probably only) reason I bought the book was to see what all the hype was about. However, I immediately fell in love with the story and its characters. It too holds a very special place in my heart.
    Writing wise, granted, J.K. is definitely a better writer. However, in my option, I think Stephenie's really good as well. People tend to forget that the Twilight saga is a first-person POV, which I'm sure you all know is very hard to write. I think Steph pulled it off amazingly, because even through the thoughts of one character, we were able to love and understand the other characters as well.
    Honestly, I think right now I prefer Twilight. Because right now I am going through things that Bella, Edward and Jacob did. Love, romance, passion, heartbreak, friendship, loyalty, making choices, etc. This does not decrease my love for HP, I still do love it, but at this stage of my life it is easier for me to connect to Twilight.
  • i have read both harry potter and twilight and to tell u the truth i love twilight more because it is about love and horror and just everything i love i will always like harry potter but i am a true twilight fan for life :D
