In honor of the premiere of the latest installment of the “Twilight” series, CT reporters asked VCU students: “What’s the appeal of Twilight?”

Daniel Speed Crime scene investigation “Each movie has a theme. The first one is cute, the second one is depressing, the third one has the epic battle and the fourth one is f—— morbid. Great movie, but it’s totally f—— morbid.”	Alan Kyte Engineering “It’s my favorite time of day.”
Dyonne Hydleburg Pre-occcupational therapy & Psychology  “I liked the new movie, but I think the Twi-hards didn’t appreciate it.”	Kim Acker Nursing “I’m Harry Potter, so I didn’t like the movie. The scene where the baby was taken out was too intense.”
Alison Thompson Photography “There are a lot of intense looks and not a lot of plot. There’s a lot of drinking for the Twilight movies. I openly hate the Twilight franchise.”	Kyle Goldzung English “I feel like John Carpenter should have made the movie.”
Clara Peebles Anthropology “Taylor Lautner is such a butter face.”	Kendall Moore Computer science “I know it’s awesome; I’m just not a fan. I think that its cool that there is an overarching amount of people that like it.”
Shelby Patty Accounting “I like the Harry Potter and Twilight wars. It’s the pot calling the kettle black.”	Mary Boltz Psychology “It’s not the best love story! It’s just hot guys.  People just go to see Taylor Lautner. Harry Potter is better. Bella is a d— hopper.”
Elnaz Rahimpour Biology “They need to stop making stupid movies about it.”
