Hey everybody! I made a template to rank all the Twilight characters. I thought I'd share it with ya'll, because we love talking about our favorite characters. I'd love your feedback or any suggestions of characters that should be added.
1. The first and the most idiotic on the list - the bloody scientific critique.
A surprising number of people, for some reason, were peeved that the series doesn't offer a sound scientific explanation for the workings of its supernatural characters, or that it dares to throw a rare, scientific tidbit into the mix every now and then.
I never understood how anybody can have a problem with that.
We know that you can't really clone dinosaurs from a fossilized DNA, yet nobody holds that inaccurate science against Jurassic Park. We know that telekinesis breaks the laws of physics, but I don't see a horde of haters complaining about that when watching one of the gazillion scifi shows/books/movies that make use of it. We know it's entirely unrealistic that almost all Star Trek races look nearly identical to humans, yet nobody acts like this makes Star Trek a crappy franchise.
Yet, almost every youtube crititic goes like "Haha, Meyer is a dumbass because her books about vampires and werewolves don't provide accurate science."
Lol.
2. Bella is selfish.
This criticism was always particularly funny to me. I always found Bella utterly unrelatable because of how unrealistically altruistic she was. 90% of the time, her primary concern were the people she loved, and only then herself.
In book one, she was prepared to sacrifice herself for her mother without hesitation. In book two, she was ready to do the same for Edward, in book three, she was all like, "Oh, noes! A vampire is trying to kill me again! I better let her do it before my legion of vampire and werewolf defenders get slightly inconvenienced trying to protect me." And, of course, she's just as self-sacrificing in book four, but the haters still sang the song of "Bella so selfish!"
This is the exact same response that Elena from Vampire Diaries had received. I think I see a pattern here:
-
a romance heroine is written to be inhumanly selfless
-
the fans, haters or both absolutely bend out of shape trying to convince themselves she's selfish
-
rinse, repeat
A tale as old as... well, more than two decades, I guess.
3. Cullens are bad because they don't overthrow the Volturi/don't fight human-drinkers.
To the people who hold that opinion, let me ask you this: you do know that there are violent and dangerous humans in the world, right?
There are murderers, terrorists, dictators, mobsters and criminals of various kinds. These people are human just like you. Who do you do to stop the

A list that was very difficult to make. A list where I had to go through five seasons worth of episodes and analyze them ! You'll notice that many episodes were omitted cause I only had room for 20 and so these episodes connected everything wonderfully. By order, I went for episodes that I thought defined The Twilight Zone as something more than just science fiction. Ranked in order.

Here's a list of the specific time frames for each characters. Possibly minus a few if they're redundant with another character on the list. But the image has everyone.
Also, this tier list maker doesn't have the Koopalings, but if it did they'd be after Richter at 25 years, 10 months, and 21 days.
Characters like Banshee, Psylocke, Forge, the New Mutants, Emma Frost, and several others I decided not to do because they hadnβt either made as many appearances or they had not been prominent enough.
Iβll probably do a few more polls tomorrow on Toad, Pyro, and Blob because I completely forgot to do them, but after that Iβll post the results about where the votes went.
Thank you for doing these polls! I really enjoyed making them and reading your comments!

In a recent livestream of Taraβs she answered a question of whether Twilight would be in G5. She replied with no, but possibly other future projects.
Edit: I guess Tara isnβt good enough of a source and her comment could mean several things, but I still stand by the title.
