The biggest reason people disliked this series is not that it had romance it is the fact that the romance is done so poorly that it becomes cringe. Excluding the fact that half the relationships are unhealthy and toxic the romance itself is just not done well.

Seeing grown men experience twilight brings me joy honest to god lol. These movies in my opinion are unique, it can't be remade

For anyone who was curious about the part that got cut off, here you go. Alice had visions of the future even as a human, and because of the time period she was committed to an insane asylum. James was hunting her, and in order to save her, a vampire who happened to work there turned her.

I was a hardcore Twilight fan when I was younger, mostly books but also movies. Now as an adult, I do see a lot of problematic themes 😬 but I have to admit it will always have a special place in my heart. So nostalgic. Love the reaction!

There is more to the sparkly skin thing than just how earlier day humans perceived and interpreted it - which would then become vampire lore. There is an actual biological explanation of why their skin reflects light. During the change process, their entire body from bone to skin were crystalized, becoming harder than diamond. Because of this, light does not penetrate their skin, only reflects. I think its cool to see different variations of vampire lore.

Robert Pattinson is the worst vampire ever cos it took him 11 years to turn into a bat 😅

They actually do go to prom at the end of the book, and Jacob shows up, but instead of talking to her outside on a bench, they dance together inside and have fun together before he tells her his father will be watching her. Then after dancing some more with Edward and talking to her friends from school, Edward takes her to a secluded bench. When they sit, Bella asks if tonight is the night Edward's gonna turn her, which he flat out refuses to ever do that, which upsets her, and they come to an impasse where Bella has decided she wants to be turned into a vampire, and Edward will not turn her.

I can not express how much I want them to watch the rest of them.

Holy shit I had forgotten how toxic their relationship was lol

I can't emphasize enough how much I need you guys to watch Sharkboy and Lavagirl

My general opinion on this movie is that the "behind the scenes" is a more entertaining watch than the finished product. Because most of the first film's actual budget went towards marketing and actor salaries, the budget leftover for production is rather shoestring, and as a result there's a bunch of kinda genius practical effects going on, even if some of the corners they had to cut made it look like shit. That being said, I do have a soft spot for this movie. I don't hate it. The soundtrack exposed me to a bunch of music I wouldn't have listened to otherwise. I went to see Mutemath live in 2011 because of this movie.

i juast love how hman is sooo nerdy it is the best thing about the reaction it made it a 100 times better

Since this is a safe space, I'll say it: One of my first fictional crushes from the book was Emmett.

As a guy that also read the books and was a casual superfan I appreciate representation in this reaction

I saw this when it released at midnight with a friend. There were like 4 guys in a packed theater.

Jasper was turned in 1863 during the civil war. He was 19 so that would make him 164 in 2008. He’s the 2nd oldest of the group.

31:19 DUDE, an iZombie reaction would actually be fire, I'm shocked about how many people actually don't like the series.

I love the twilight series. It's that kind of media you know it's bad but u still enjoy it because it's bad lol like a guilty pleasure

I hope you guys are watching the whole series love your reaction

Jasper is the second oldest, he was 161 years old. Remember he was a soldier in the civil war.

the mcr song "vampire money" was actually written about twilight! they were asked to write a song for the movie but they weren't interested in selling out by writing something just for a movie

I've given in-depth discussions about this on my Twitch channel before, but my biggest issue with this series (movie or book) is that there was GREAT potential, and it was executed poorly. Minor spoilers... The lore is insanely cool, and if expanded upon, it could've kept me regardless of characters. There's so much emphasis on the dangers of vampires, Quilluete (sp?) wolves, and European lycans even, but we get an extremely vague or dialed back version of the horrors of it. The characters were forced to behave in ways that were out of character for themselves, and it ruined the whole endearing aspect of them (apart from the G himself Charlie). Edward was meant to be an idealized husband with traditional values, but he was forced into a teenage drama. Jacob was meant to be the great take on a childhood friend who missed having someone as weird as them around, but again was forced into being a love interest even though his most natural scenes were just platonic towards Bella. BD part 2 is the best movie to me because it gives us a taste of what we could've had as far as intrigue, action, and world development. But Stephanie Myers was scared to go into the gritty stuff for fear she would lose her audience or the chance to hypothetically expand. In the end, she never did anything but rewrote things from a different POV. In short, a genre change, just a change in target audience (aging things up or writing over a longer period of time so the characters could meet and interact organically over years), or not fearing to make permanant decisions with characters would've made this series far greater imo. PS: Personally, I would've loved to see more traveling and interaction with vampires across the world, hearing their stories and seeing more on the lycans so many vampires fear. And more Bella being a normal high schooler and casually going to hang out with the reservation kids and finding out about them in a more natural setting to help them through it.

Boom is officially Edward and "ChiliGirl" is Bella. This is Twilight canon now.

Yasssss finally do the whole series plz it will be worth it

Pst, you guys forgot to take out the S booth reference. Just don’t want y’all to get flagged. Loved the reaction and hope y’all do the rest 💞

Charlie Swan is the mvp of this series, he’s amazing!

Honestly one of my new favourite videos. Hman explaining the lore and everyone being genuinely interested in the movie was so fun!

I don’t know if u guys know, Bella’s house is a air bnb now, they have a KZfaq channel called twilight swan house

They actually didn’t change Victoria until Eclipse. I’m glad you mentioned the whole Alice/James thing. You didn’t mention, so I’m not sure you know, but Robert Pattinson sings two songs in the movie. During the restaurant scene when he explains he can read minds and in the ballet studio when he has to suck the venom out of her. Those were RP songs. I was and still am a diehard Twilight fan. I was actually in my 40s when I took my teenage daughter to see Twilight and I wound up seeing it more than she did. I didn’t read the books until after watching the third movie because I am the kind of person who can read the book before I see the movie because then I compare them too much and get upset about what changed or was left out. In Twilight a lot is left out. The back stories of Alice, Esme, and Emmett just to name a few. Even though we know a little about Edward’s backstory, they didn’t let you know that his father had already died of Spanish influenza, his mother, and he were in the hospital dying, and his mother, big Carlisle to save him. She didn’t know exactly that he was a vampire, but she knew there was something different about him. Edward didn’t resent Carlisle saving him because he read in his mind the conversation that Carlisle had with his mother. But he didn’t rebel against the restricted diet.

i hope you guys to continue the whole series, this was so funny LOL

okay well now we need a shark boy and lava girl reaction LMFAOOO

The start is awesome hman 😂😂❤

Edward: Mind reader, Alice: Psychic, and Jasper: Empath

You guys are really funny. I would love to see your reaction to the first season of True Blood🤭

Thank you for the laugh! It really made my day! 😂

i think you guys would love coraline. it’s usually watched during or near halloween but it can be watched whenever honestly

Hman, I also listen to the music all the time, I legit think they're all pretty good. "Uniquely entertaining" at the very least. Also, the director had a very specific aesthetic vision for this film. Cinematically, the first film is the worst out of all of them, each film gets much better "overall." ALSO Also, I would love to see y'all react to the rest of them, they really do get better and since you guys love lore so much, even though it's not as detailed as in the books, (almost) everyone gets their backstory explained at least briefly in the films. What I would love to see is the author, Stephenie Meyer, write a book chronologizing EVERYONE'S backstories IN DETAIL, and then perhaps a mini-series (tv or KZfaq) detailing each (important) character.

This was the funniest reaction I have seen in the longest time. Omg you guys were hilarious.

definitely not a movie I ever expected you guys to watch lmao but its really cool that you guys did it just cause Hman asked

Well it wasnt a lot of makeup it was moreso it wasn't in their contract to stay out of the sun. In the beginning you would see them around set with umbrellas to stay naturally pale. They couldnt get tans or anything. For the speed they literally had them on conveyor belts, attached to a cord and had them walk on it. Its essentially like filming someone walking on the fast past thing at the airport 😂 They changed actresses because schedule wise they couldnt get the original girl.

Oh God, watching Twilight, and Kristen's facial expressions. 😂

I also hope they Keep reacting to the other movies as well.

Subbing for the next 4 movies because Billy on the bottom right is a Twihard like I've ever seen. He's giving facts I've forgotten about since I was in his position when the movies came out. I am surprised he didn't mention the apple catch was the cover of the book.

Hi guys. First time the watching your channel. I appreciate you doing these films. I haven't looked through all the comments but I will say that, the first film was considered low budget around 37 million I believe and grossed over 400 million. I'm the typical Twilight band. I love the books because they came out when I was working at a library and I read them and just happened to watch the first film and enjoyed it and actually own all the movies and the books now. I wasn't a teenager. I was late 30s or so I am understand getting frustrated when a book is different from usually the books are always better but I didn't mind these. These books were very successful and the author had a lot of say in them. You know, screenplays for movies are changed a lot, typically from the book making, just how it is. I know everybody gets up an arms about the toxicity of the relationships, I feel that's mostly younger generations. It is what it is. It's a movie and fictionional. I don't even know how some are these people that get so up in arms over things they don't consider politically correct? Would handle horror movies from the '80s and '70s etc like if.

I literally shouted "NOOO" when I saw the notification. Like, I'm grinning right now; not a fan, but I love seeing people's reactions to this cringe of a five-film creation. Enjoy, boys 😂😅

Ok Hman is an Icon!!!!!!! The level of hate he had for Mike I know he read Midnight Sun !!

This reaction brought me SO much joy 😂 My dad actually bought me all the Twilight books (a Costco bundle) and didn’t realize they were a series (he thought they were stand alone novels). He saw that they were high on the best seller’s list and then he read only Breaking Dawn while I read from the beginning 😂😂

I want to see how y’all react to the rest of the twilight series, except next time h-man should not talk about how it is in the books, unless it’s at the end to wrap up

I know older one but I love the Interview with the Vampire that had Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt which came out in 1994. Queen of the Damned is a sequel.

“Bro I’ve got so much against Mike” saaaaame 😂

In the class scene in the books Edward sits as far from her as possible and stares out the window. The movie version is oof 😅

When I first heard about this movie, a co worker of mine ages ago... Talked about it for awhile, and I went to the movie theater and watched it 3 times.... Been watching ever since then, I liked it, sparkle was different than any other vampires I've seen...but it never bothered me, though.

no sleeping is my second deal breaker....i love sleep, i love dreams and i am an awesome dreamer....i can lucid dreams and everything...no vampire superpowers can match teaming up with all your 80s animated heroes fighting arachnids attacking the Baywatch beach or leading your Xenomorph army against the Orcs of Mordor

U guys gotta do more reactions to the rest of the movies ❤❤❤❤

I have watched this film like once and... uhh, its got good memes I guess. I bet this reaction will be fun anyway, if Boom's comment on how he wants to die is anything to go by. Drugs and sharks is an odd combination

Charlie is the best dad and i am not gonna lie my absolute favorite part of the movies!! Also agree with others please I Zombie and The Batman 🙏

This is the happiest day of my life

Matriculating means graduating grade 12 or senior year to you guys. Seniors in my school are called matrics

Hman is so adorable. Please tell him that there's a guide book written by th Twilight author called the Twilight Illustrated Guide. It goes in depth on so much more of the lore and backstories of the characters and even has awesome book accurate illustrations. I highly recommend Hman❤❤

When's the New Moon reaction coming?!

From kindergarten all the way through till I graduated high school the largest class I was ever a part of was 14, the biggest school I went to was the public school I graduated from that had 250 students ranging from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade

enjoy the movie but don't model your relationships after them. Edward is a toxic, gaslighting, manipulating, abusive monster.

Not a huge fan of Twilight, but I sometimes enjoy them. I will say the first is the worst one of all but after that then they get a bit better. It’s not so cheesy and corny technology anymore 😂 can’t wait for you guys to react to new moon and the next 3 😁👏🏻

If you love vampires the Originals is a must see series

I actually love the way they run

Yeah you guys should do the rest of the twilight sega and then do all Harry Potter movies?!😊

there are more powers in the family.. they just are not thing you'd think of as SUPERpowers. Carlisle's power is his love of humanity and his ability to be around human blood due to his overwhelming desire to help others. compassion is his power. Rosalie is drop dead beautiful..im taking the most beautiful person on earth. in the books her beauty is talked about much more. Emmett is super strong and athletic, with a willingness to defend his family physically, using his strength to his advantage. Jasper has the best one Imo, he can influence people's moods and emotions to his will. Esme is the only one who 'doesn't have a power' but that's not true either because the Cullens say her power is to love whole heartedly and be a true mother figure, protecting and guiding unconditionally, beyond the capabilities of any normal woman. the movies force a spotlight on Edward and Alice's powers in order to drive the plot forward, but the books give you more context.

had a guy at my school turn up for a total of 2 weeks in the school year and he still passed

I didnt know all the things hman said and its so interesting really

Do you plan to do all the movies?

Before Twilight came out Robert Pattinson had only done some TV movies. The only well know appearance he had was in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as Cedric Diggory. Kristen Stewart had done The Safety of Objects, Panic Room with Jodie Foster, Catch That Kid, and Speak. As well as Fierce People, Zathura: A Space Adventure, The Messengers, The Cake Eaters, and Into The Wild before she was in Twilight. She was in a bunch of other things, but I only named the most well-known films she was in.

22:07 I'd go back. I didn't love everything, but I'm struggling with my university courses right now and I'd kill to go back to the days of highschool drama. It was like a second family for me. Also H man knowing THIS much is really ridiculously funny to me. My best friend is obsessed with the books to and I just don't understand why, but these movies are hilarious to me😂 27:23 also I'm dying of laughter, like damn, I did not expect that

The budget really went to the care of the 142 Mexican Whooping Lamas

So did you not do the rest of them or?

I'm with you there Hman. I am also a huge vampire lore fan. I've read and seen so many different vampire stories I doubt I could name them all. And this does include Twilight. I love the books! I saw this first movie with my cousin when I was 19 and loved it. I quickly read all the books and loved them more. But it can be weird telling people that you're a fan because Twilight gets so much hate. Criticism from people who have read the books or seen the movies and just didn't jam with them is one thing. The outright mockery from people who have never read or seen it and who base their entire opinion on the memes and jokes can be hard to take. Honestly, I could leave or take the movies. The amount they leave out or outright change paired with the awkward cringe factor allows the books to far surpass the movies. I still find them an enjoyable watch don't get me wrong, but the movies leave out some pretty important character and relationship development. In the books, they really got to know one another and when through all the good and bad parts of a relationship. The movies fast-tracked everything and played up the problematic elements, leaving the context and growth out almost completely. Not to mention the world building and background stories of each character. Holy moly there is so much more to the world and the characters than whats shown in the movies.

Guess I have a new book to read.

there was a kid in my high school who also would naruto run around the halls lmfao

H man can actually say stuff... most dialogue ever.

please watch the rest of them!

First one hair

Okay. Uhhh, it could be just me but... 1:02:42 Is she the author? The woman with a computer in a diner (common place for writers to work in) with her first name mentioned? Is that the author, whether its legit her or an actress?

Hman, do you like True Blood and the Sookie Stackhouse books?

yeeees best reaction ever

My graduating class was 7 people. I dont wanna hear anything about small classes 😂

Oof the journey on this one is gonna be rough.

My high school graduating class had 43 people. They were the same people I’d been in class with since kindergarten.

Next movie reaction gotta be The Room

My 8th grade graduation had 14 of us

17:28 😂 same in a hard level this xD

Excuse you, Jasper is the oldest of the 'children'. He was around in the Civil War.

The first one is ok, but the rest of the series are really controversial, specially because of Jacob. And I love Charlie, he's nice

im pretty sure they did go to prom at the end of the first book

wait did you say you'd do The Batman reaction? that would be awesome!!

26:22 yeah thats where some abusing relationship come

You have way more fun watching Twilight if you view it as an unintentional comedy

Have you guys watched Scott Pilgrim vs The World? Now that movie is fun and the music is dope 🎶🎵🎶

1:22:27 Ohhhhh That's actually interesting I wonder what my 'strongest trait' would be? Nothing good or significant, probably Hmmm... yeah, idk

My husband’s graduating class was 12. Yeah 12 people.

Over 400 students is a small high school? I thought my 250 was small.....

1:20:22 Actually Jasper and Alice are some of the oldest.
