I have just been informed that Forks, Washington (where the twilight series takes place) will be getting their own TV show.
If you are an average reader of LLIOF, you will know our stand on the Twilight series.
I was reading my NewsFire [my rss feed client] and I saw that Perez Hilton had posted up a blog talking about this event, So I looked into it.
Overall, the city does not seem mad about it. The city also has "Twilight Points Of Interests" on a website, showing all of the local points for twilight. The city has went through and named some buildings like the movie. [E.X. The Cullen House, and so on]
Personally, I find this ridiculous. But for the city, it is a great way to attract visitors and get a good tourist income. So I am taking both accounts into play here. But also, this could get out of hand, increasing theft, vandalism, and so on in the city. I hope they thought of all of this before they agreed to be in the documentary "Twilight in Forks" or even in their own reality show.

Fakes in the media
What is wrong with these people...
Recently, Balloon Boy.
New, a girl says she was bitten by a 40 year old man at a twilight showing.
(Picture on right of the alleged Twilight Bite victim)
These people get their 15 seconds of fame, but then they come back down to earth by lying to our media. Now, I am not saying that every news story is a liar, but all of the media concerning younger people is starting to all be hoaxes. This right now is just a rant, but think about it. Should we really lie about stuff to get fame. [I mean, not all do it for fame, but it usually ends up that way.] Or should we mooch of others success by suing the shit out of them and taking everything they have. NO! We should not. Why cant everyone just find a way to make an honest living, and let stuff come as it does. Its not just people or kids, also bands and stuff. Yes, I realize this post is very bitter and uncaring of me, but its about time that these people get what they deserve.
Recap
Ballon Boy: Young kid 'goes up in an aircraft alone' in Colorado, then his parents 'find' him in an attic
Twilighter: A girl claims she was 'bitten' by a man in his 40's at a premier of the showing of new moon.
At least they all are getting what is coming to them.
Balloon Boy's parents are being investigated by the FAA, and also local authorities.
"The local authorities are already investigating Richard and Mayumi Heene for criminal behavior including influencing a public official and the delinquency of a minor."
-from Perez Hilton
Erin Westrate (Twilight Girl) now could be charged with filing a false police report.
Let me know what you think of fakes in the media with a @reply to liariceonfire on twitter.

Twilight...
I read the book over 4 years ago. Then it got popular. Then it got extra popular. Then it just got blown way out of proportion.
I have been alright with the Twilight series for some while, not liking it, but okay with it. But now it has gone too far.
While I was making my breakfast, I decide to stroll through the Best Buy ad. In the movies, I see this..

In under 4 years of being a credited actor, he went from being Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter movies, to being one of the number one idol among teens.
Don't just think that I am jumping to conclusions. I loved the books, I watched the first movie, and was disappointed.
Lets backtrack. First twilight was a big hit, making [a rumored] $70.6 mil in its opening week.
The second Twilight movie. SPONSORED BY VITAMIN WATER.
No movie, I repeat, No movie, should be sponsored if its first one made over 70 million on its opening week.
Maybe I'm just being bitter, but Robert Pattinson has sold out big time.
Sitting here blogging about him isin't helping him get any less famous, but in a few years, no one will know who he is.
But thats okay, this blog is barely read by anyone.
If you, for whatever reason, want dirt on any Twilight member, be sure to check out Perez Hilton's website at www.Perezhilton.com.
