哈利·波特与暮光之城 问题

On all fiction saga fanbases, Lord of the Rings came first. It's successor is the Harry Potter series. Many claim Twilight is Harry Potter's. What do 你 think? Is Twilight the successor of Harry Potter?

For me, I do not think so, especially that 吸血鬼 DO NOT sparkle :P

I'll add a subquestion: Why?

well many people like Twihards and the MEDIA do deny that HP will be TW's predecessor.

哈利·波特与暮光之城  最佳答案

ilovereading said:
The term 幻想 means a genre of literature that origins from fairytales, legends and myths and for its setting, plot 或者 theme uses 邪恶力量 elements like magic.
J. R. R. Tolkien is, with his The Lord of the Rings (and other 图书 like Hobbit, Silmallirion...) know as the father of modern fantasy.

Now, Harry Potter series and Lord of the Rings have much in common. They are both epic 或者 high 幻想 in which main theme is conflict between good and evil, hero`s struggle for victory etc.
I would never dare to say that Harry Potter is better than Lord of the Rings, although I like it 更多 (simply because it is closer to my time and way of thinking).

Twilight and great works of epic 幻想 have almost nothing in common, except maybe for large fanbase and a couple of mythical creatures.
Yes, Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings have 爱情 to, but it`s not used as main plot issue. And no, chit chat between the Volturi and Cullens is not exactly good vs evil.

Twilight is not successor of Harry Potter because a romance "fantasy" story does not have what it takes to set foundations for 下一个 generation of (good) 幻想 writers.

I don't think Harry Potter is necessarily the successor of Lord of the Rings because that would imply that it has replaced it, which it hasn't. I think that, 更多 accurately, Harry Potter is the 下一个 幻想 series to 加入 the ranks of Lord of the Rings and the Chronicles of Narnia as a timeless 幻想 classic which will be remembered for generations to come. Twilight will never be part of this group.

Twilight is not an epic fantasy, a timeless classic, well written, 或者 anything 更多 than a fad. It's a cheesy romance novel, so for it to be "the 下一个 Harry Potter," literature must surely die first.

That was something the Press came up with to hype the series even more. LOTR, Harry Potter, and 星, 星级 Wars are in the Same league. But Twilight will never live on as long as those three fanbases. Twilight is a fad. That is why they are coming out so fast in theatres. For fear of lack of interest. But that really erked me when they 说 " Twilight is the 下一个 Harry Potter" 或者 " Stephanie Meyer is the 下一个 Jo Rowling" Really? Give me break. 或者 I'll have the Death Eaters Give 你 a visit. Everything the press is fabricated and untrue.

No, I don´t think Harry Potter is the successor of Lord of the Rings and I don´t think Twilight is the successor of Harry Potter either.
They do not base on each other, but on some elements out of old legends (like dragons, wizards, vampires,...) and on the creativity of their author.
In my opinion, it just happened 由 accident that LotR was the first great 幻想 saga.
If Twilight 或者 HP were the first ones, we would say that the others base on them.
But the only thing these three series have in common is the existing of magic/magical elements. Apart from that, they are completely different.

I think it's kind of funny how childrens' 图书 are held as highly as LOTR, not that I'm a 粉丝 of any of them.
