Finding Out What It's all About

I pride myself on usually being ahead of he pop culture curve. But for some reason, I've been slow to jump on the Twilight bandwagon. I suppose I didn't really care. So today, Saturday, I decided to watch the first movie in the series. I'm half way through, to the point where you learn that vampires sparkle, and I'm thinking, "WTF?" Vampires sparkling? Really? Beyond that, the acting is terrible. I guess kids these days will watching anything.
