天外飛來一朵雲: 暮光之城twilight V.S roswell羅茲威爾

December 22, 2009

The more I consider as to why I’d like twilight so much. The more I couldn't help to realize the similarities between the two. Out of curiosity, I cross search for “Twilight” and “Roswell” and I was a genuine surprised there are fans out there who think alike.

To break down the “why”, I have considered these following plots to be similar.

	Twilight	Roswell
Life saving- There could not have been anything more romantic than a man saves his girl’s life.	Edward stops the van from crashing Bella. Therefore, his unusual abilities were questioned by her.	In the very beginning of “pilot”, Max ran to Liz and used his healing power to retreat the bullet out of her and leave a silver handprint on her.
Biology class- Where all chemistry took place.	Where Edward first smells her scent and fight against every muscle in him for his thirst.	When Liz found out about Max’s unusual cells, she confronted him and acknowledging his secret identity.
It’s never safe…	If only Bella is smart enough and values her life, she wouldn’t be anywhere near Edward. However…	“It’s not safe. We’re…" said Max. “Just different” said Liz.
Story telling	By Bella, through her thoughts.	By Liz, through her diaries.
Mind reading	Edward reads minds except for Bella’s.	Max reads Liz’s thoughts when he touches her.
Super powers	Mind reading Fast and strong	Healing power And a lot more
The families	Edward and his vampire families.	Max and his family-Isabel and Michael.
The bottom line...	Extraordinary things happen to an ordinary girl. Surely, a gorgeous alien or vampire is a plus!!

Come to think of it, Roswell definitely deserved more credits than it received a few years ago. I’d always feel sorry for Roswell not being such a big hit as twilight is now. Although season two and three was not as exciting to watch as the first season. Still, I wish there have been more people who’re hooked as I did before. In season three of Roswell, certain side effects have surfaced when Liz is getting powers after Max’s healing, I wonder how twilight would go if Bella’s eventually going to turn. I’d call Twilight an experience since it was the first movie I had ever watched and wanted to read the books just to find out more. However, such experience isn’t exactly new to me, it has just been re-aroused that’s all.
