Yeah Twilight maybe trashy and all, but fanboys have been driving the box office for way too long with equally trashy boy stories - or worse really, and so much of it.
They have a cheek attacking the first female franchise for being trashy - don't think we will ever catch up to boy trash.Police Academies/Porkies/Screams/Duece Bigelow, and all that crap they lap up.
And my fave recent female movie is The Help.
All time fave female kind of movies - Thelma & Louise; and Tarantino's Grindhouse

A double-bill of thrillers that recall both filmmakers' favorite exploitation films. "Grindhouse" (a downtown movie theater in disrepair since its glory days as a movie palace known for "grinding out" non-stop double-bill programs of B-movies) is presented as one full-length feature comprised of two individual films helmed separately by each director. "Death Proof," is a rip-roaring slasher flick where the killer pursues his victims with a car rather than a knife, while "Planet Terror" shows us a view of the world in the midst of a zombie outbreak. The films are joined together by clever faux trailers that recall the '50s exploitation drive-in classics. Written by alfiehitchie
Both are crazy & violent.
But women ROCK in these movies.
Grindhouse, Rose McGowan gets a machine gun for a prosthetic leg and kicks arse. Very funny zombie movie.
Death Proof, is pretty freaky, 1st half is gross, 2nd half - is just awesome girl power
Not very girlie tastes.
More like female protest movies I guess - but I like a good sweeping saga too, and poets/artists romance at a higher level, Austen and Bronte.
Thus - vampires, zombies and such are preferable to Jen Aniston or some other simpering fool
