So I was on Facebook earlier, and I noticed a status one of my friends had made ranting about Twilight and the New Moon movie. I read it, and she ranted about some of the generic points, then went on to say how she was only going to see it because Taylor takes his shirt off.

For some reason, this filled me with immense rage.

See, we were going to see New Moon together, and I was under the impression it was to make fun of it. Because, let's face it, there's a lot of stuff to make fun of in just the trailers alone, so I imagine the movie itself will be a riot. Finding out she wants to go to ogle half-naked guys, my main rant point against the movie, was like a big slap in the face.

I, personally, do not see where she's coming from. How does a half-naked guy suddenly make a movie better? It doesn't increase in quality or make anything seem more intelligent! It's pointless fanservice for the sake of fanservice! If it was tactfully placed, I wouldn't be ranting about it, but it's not!

The worst part was, about ten girls replied to her status with nothing more to add than "I agree, Taylor's hot!" with much less punctuation or proper grammar. This just enraged me further; are we so ruled by our sexuality that it even overrides our ability to think critically? Does quality go out the window in favor of ogling half-naked bodies?

I'm willing to admit that maybe I'm the weird one, since most women seem content to stare at guys, or vice-versa, but I personally don't see the appeal at all. I enjoy quality over this kind of shit. Something has to be shot well, or have a good storyline to qualify as a good movie in my book. And maybe it's not fair that I get pissed off at people for following their instincts, but damnit I'm pissed all the same!

In other news, I got a haircut and it looks awesome. I think I'll go punch something now.
