There's something darkly erotic about vampires, and "Twilight" knows it.
I get why people are going crazy over this, despite its countless flaws. It's a 15-year-old's dream. And embarrassing as it is, I'll say it: I actually liked parts of this movie.

Imagine a world in which television was never invented.
Instead of gluing our eyes to the screen to engorge ourselves with hours of mind-rotting crap, we'd glue our ears to the radio for perhaps one hour a day to hear our favorite action or drama. The people behind these programs would be immensely talented in using their voices and natural sound effects to portray a story line to the intently listening audience.

Occasionally, strong prose and a powerful narrative voice can elevate an otherwise mediocre story. It is in instances like this when a book is adapted to film and something is lost in translation. Once it has lost its strongest element, the power of the story deteriorates.

Coldplay performed to an arena packed with enthused fans Nov. 13 at Kansas City's Sprint Center in the Power and Light District.
The globe-trotting, British soft-rock group took the stage a little after 9 p.m., following two opening acts - a country-tinged alt-rock group from Texas, and a DJ who laid down beats in sync with an acid-trip-esque cartoon video.
