In the previous part, I was talking about YouTube Twilight series. The clichés in them include:


1. Following one and the same storyline:


Basically, the vampire women are able to get pregnant. They have children in the first season. The rest of the series concentrate on the children growing up and finding their mates and sometimes having their own babies too.


2. The children have weird names.


I once saw in series Bella and Edward's children being called Echo and Answer. Answer!! Who the heck names their baby Answer? Or Journey? Is that even a name?!


3. They always cast Shailene Woodley as older Renesmee. Like there aren't other actors who could play her (*cough cough* I have a full master list here and on tumblr *cough cough*).


Thanks god, they're not casting Mackenzie Foy and writing that she is 21+ and/or making intimate scenes between her and Taylor Lautner.


4. They ALWAYS name the series like this:


- Many Years After

- Years after Twilight/Breaking Dawn

- A Twilight Story

- Many Years

- Many Years After Twilight/Breaking Dawn


Aren't there any other names?


But, of course! If it's gonna be a story about vampires bearing children and raising them, what other names can be chosen?


A lot.


Why not:


- Twilight: The Next Generation

- Generations

- Growing Up

- Raising (insert child's name) - if concentrated on ONLY one child. (Ex. Raising Anberlin)

- Cullens V.2


5. They also always use one and the same song for their intros. It's called "Hanging On" by Samantha Kimball (I think? Not too sure? Can't remember it at the top of my head).


LESSON OF THE DAY:


DO NOT make series if they're gonna follow those clichés. We have enough of these. Even two is enough.
