Time may pass and the world might change, but there’s one constant in life: Twilight sucks. LADBible reports that Twilight was ranked as the worst movie of all time, beating out dozens of awful movies that provided some seriously tough competition.
It’s easier to choke down fruitcake than to admit you enjoy watching Twilight once in a while, and that you cried when Edward and Bella got married. It’s emotional, okay?

Despite its many many shortcomings (stoic acting, budget restrictions, awful makeup, the list goes on) Twilight did a lot for pop culture. It’s a film franchise that managed to remain in our brains for a decade, which is no easy feat in today’s world of unending content streams. Twilight made many young women and moms (TwiMoms) read, revitalizing young adult novels. But most importantly, Twilight is the main reason behind the vampire genre boom of the 2000’s, which lead to dozens of books, movies and TV Shows. The franchise made over 385 million dollars at the box office, while also launching Summit Entertainment as a respectable production company (not to mention the careers of Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson).
So, is Twilight still bad? Sure, but claiming that it’s the worst movie ever made seems like a decision based solely on the fact that it’s a movie made for young girls.
