[fandom] awesome things

So they've started writing the script for The Hobbit. You know how many Tolkien fans feel about LotR? That is how I feel about TH. Growing up, it was the Tolkien story I loved best, even though LotR had my girl in it being awesome. I am a tiny bit nervous about the new movies. Excited, though.

The Mac/Windows commercial where Windows is a king and he tries to banish Mac? Too precious for words. I seriously ship those two anymore.

Vin Diesel to direct and star in a 20 minute prequel to Fast and the Furious 4. Michelle Rodriguez is going to be in it too. I just died a little. Out of happiness.

Vin Diesel beats up everyone in science fiction. "I'm Vin Diesel. Don't fuck with me."

God, I love it when he has a new movie out. The entertainment just keeps coming.

Re: F&F4 prequel - They filmed in the Dominican Republic! I am *so* looking forward to this, like *please* don't make us wait until the DVD comes out! I love Vin and Michelle together.

I beg forgiveness, as this has NOTHING to do with your post (although I love The Hobbit and the Windows v. Mac commercials).

But since you are probably one of the most well read people of supernatural/ghost-y/werewolf-y/vampire-y stories on my flist, I am dying to know what you think of the Twilight series. I don't know if you've read them, I'm not sure if you've heard about them (I hadn't until May) but I kind of just want an opinion on them from someone who has read lots of similar things before and knows what she's talking about.

I have one friend who keeps trying to get me to read them but I keep hearing they're a lot of crap. I thought you might know best.
