It's Gonna Happen Anyway...

I found this a while back and I've been meaning to post it here.  Can I say that I thought about this the first time I read "Twilight?"  I mean - seriously - woulda spared us the pointless love triangle and the squeamishness in "Breaking Dawn."

(of course Alice is the reasonable one - because, well, she's Alice.  And awesome.  But mostly awesome).

There is just something really likable about Alice. This is jsut my thought, but it seems like she's doesn't take herself as seriously as the other vampires, but at the same time she's also very matter-of-fact (a point the video made very well, in my opinion). When you're in a story with all that angst and... whatever... it was nice to have Alice come around once in a while and basically tell everyone to grow up and that things would work out.

But I do agree that Alice dressing Bella in a cocktail dress and stilettos for the hunt was way off. But the same could be said for the whole of "Breaking Dawn," so in a way, it's not Alice's fault so much as it was the author's (BD was just completely unnecessary to the series. I often wonder if Stephenie Meyer didn't want to dabble in a bit of "official" fanfic or something).
