I felt a compelling need to write this bài viết because recently I have found myself thêm constantly thrust into situations and debates where I have to defend the Harry Potter fandom against the Twilight fandom, which I despise so much. My best friend and her family are actually major pro-Twilight fans. This past evening made me realize that there are so many reasons why Harry Potter is much thêm awesome than Twilight, and its not just the obvious ones either. Thus, I give bạn all the evidence bạn will ever need to successfully pwn a Twilight người hâm mộ trying to bring your fandom down.

Obvious Reasons
1. We have plot and character development, they don't.
2. Our actors are better than their's, as well as our films.
3. Harry Potter has been around since 1997 and is still going strong, Twilight has only been around since 2005.
4. Sparkling...WTF?!

Reasons of Personal Opinion
1. Stewart can't act. At all.
2. The Twilight films and sách are way too easy to make fun of.
3. The Twilight những người hâm mộ are mostly scary and rabid. Compared to their fandom, Harry Potter những người hâm mộ look very docile and tame.
4. One word: Twimoms.
5. The visual effects in New Moon were laughable at best, hilarious at worst.
6. The awards that Twilight wins have no merit, such as MTV Movie Awards, Teen Choice Awards, and Kids Choice Awards.
7. Hot Topic continuously plagues their stores with Twilight merch and hinders our ability to get our hands on Harry Potter merch.

Factual Reasons
1. Twilight has sold over 100 million copies, Harry Potter has sold over 400 million.
2. Twilight is translated into 38 different languages, Harry Potter into 67 different languages.
3. In all time box office numbers, New Moon is ranked at #37 and Twilight is nowhere on the hàng đầu, đầu trang 100. Harry Potter occupies three hàng đầu, đầu trang 10 spots, with Sorcerer's Stone at #7, Order of the Phoenix at #9, and Half Blood Prince at #10.
4. The Twilight films have no Oscar hoặc Golden Globe nominations, both of which are considered very high honors in film. Harry Potter has a total of 7 Oscar nominations. Three for Sorcerer's Stone, two for Prisoner of Azkaban, and one each for Goblet of ngọn lửa, chữa cháy and Half Blood Prince.
5. Stephenie Meyer's net worth is around 150 million dollars. JK Rowling's is 1 billion dollars.
6. Stephen King has been quoted saying Stephenie Meyer can't write. That's huge coming from one of the most successful horror authors. Here is the actual quote from his 2009 interview in USA Weekend: "Both Rowling and Meyer, they're speaking directly to young people... The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can't write worth a darn. She's not very good."
