Jun. 20th, 2009 07:58 pmMaybe everyone's seen this before, but it blew my mind. Mostly because I didn't believe it could be done in a more serious way like this.
From the website: In this remixed narrative Edward Cullen from the Twilight Series meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer at Sunnydale High. It's an example of transformative storytelling serving as a critique of Edward's character and generally creepy behavior. Through Buffy's eyes some of the more patriarchal gender roles and sexist Hollywood tropes embedded in the Twilight saga are exposed in hilarious ways.
But honestly? I think it's sadder and scarier than it is funny. Although the parts where you know she's supposed to be talking to Spike or Angel are pretty hilarious. But this made me love Buffy more than ever--never has there been a better use for her eyerolls. She just doesn't have time for this shit.
And I haven't seen the Twilight movie, but if these clips are any indication, it has to contain the worst acting known to man.
