I know this debate is a little out of date but I decided to do it anyway.
Are you the kind of person who enjoys teenage vampire romance novels?
Or do You prefer the high action thrilling amazing super awesome harry potter series? The Pick is yours.

Is this even a question? It's obvious that Twilight is a lot better because of sparkly vampires and guys with a naked chest Harry Potter is superior.

But seriously, I never read or saw any of the Twilight books or movies and therefore can't decide wether I like them or not. I don't hate on them, but it's fun to see other people hate on them.
For Harry Potter, I've read through the series three times and after every time, I thought the series was worse than I thought. Overall though, I still like the books and also the movies (besides the 5th one, that one was horrible).

Thank you thank you thank you!!!! Some people here have sense. I completely agree, but somehow not everyone does.

I prefer Harry Potter since I was introduced to it in my childhood. I never see these two series being compared to each other. I don't think they're similar enough or started around the right times to do something like that.

Interesting concept + good writing versus bad concept + awful writing.

Was this thread necessary?

Harry Potter all the way! Twilight is inferior to Harry Potter in every way.

I don't often just follow the crowd in hating things. I don't really hate Justin Bieber, to give an example. Twilight, however, is one thing I have absolutely no good words for. I haven't read the books, but the movies are just... awful. They really overdid the drama. Kirsten Stewart sums it all up best, seeing as how she pulls the same face the entire movie. I'm not that big of a Harry Potter fan, but it has it's enjoyable moments. Twilight just takes itself way to seriously.

Harry Potter, my aunt has taken me to all the movies and gotten me into the fantasy genre. The Harry Potter movies and books have and will always be one of my favorite. Their just magical. Plain magic without the sparkle.

I'll say Harry Potter since I kinda like the movies and I haven't seen Twilight, nor do I plan to. Vampires should burn in the sun and not sparkle iirc.

Seriously, Harry Potter despite the fact that I only read the books. Twilight is disgusting.

I have read and watched both series. Harry Potter over all for sure. I liked the twilight books but they did not do a good job with the movies at all. I very much enjoyed the Harry potter books and most of the movies a few I didn't like as much due to the fact they cut so much from the books.

I don't watch or read the Twilight series so I can't state my opinion about it. But I do watch Harry Potter in movies which it was really amazing. My pick is Harry Potter. The movie keeps me interested and someday I might read his books really soon.

TWILIGHT LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL. I think Harry Potter is the obvious choice here, being that the poll is HP: 23 Twilight: 0. Harry Potter was one of my first chapter book series. Great books.

Harry Potter is winning. Twilight has Zero!

Resistance is futile, the people want originality. I am So tired of teenage vampire/werewolf love stories. They are freaking everywhere, and I don't appreciate it.

Essay writing time!

I started reading Harry as a 6 year old (it took a loooooooooong time), and that's still my standard for what a good book should be: original, characters like Hagrid and Malfoy, being descriptive without sounding like those classic authors who only know of adjectives, and a few references to mythology to keep me interested even after I've read all of the books five or six times.

And Twilight came along. I didn't read past the summary on the inside of the book jacket. "What? A story where all of the characters sound at least part emo? What the heck is this? Oh, and I'm not too crazy about gang wars, either." It didn't help that JK Rowling has also set up a framework for werewolves and vampires actually behave logically, which Twilight completely threw out the window.

And then you-know-what came along. I'm not going to say the very idea of Twilight is bad, although I have no idea whether it's original or not. Judging by the summary in the book jacket and Wikipedia and the snippets of movie I saw and reviews I read, Stephanie Meyer just plain didn't do a very good job writing it into a novel.

One last thing, it was REALLY, REALLY ANNOYING the way a number of my schoolmates (and teachers) brains completely turned into slush when anyone so much as mentioned the word "Twilight."

When it comes down to the quality of the writing, Harry Potter dominates.

I'm sorry, but Twilight is just a bunch of shoddy writing.

Does twilight even have a plot? Sure I like it but it has not much of a plot structure as compared to HP. Twilight also tends to get a little melodramatic(Rosalie especially)

God, did this even need to be a comparison? Twilight is a piece of poop compared to Harry Potter. Harry all the way!:D

I can't stand either of these series. But if I were to choose, Harry Potter is my choice.

Ah, the age old discussion. Harry Potter is better.

Why? Twilight is very erotic and the main character does nothing but love someone.

Harry Potter though, is very action filled but with magic. I rarely see something that has magic and has action (besides Zero no Tsukaima, of course, but wrong kind of action!)

Harry Potter has magic and (I dare to say it) VOLDEMORT.

Twilight is a fail. It is boring and the characters wander around in the woods until something stupididly dramatic happens.

So, Harry Potter. I have proven my point.

Harry Potter.
1. I'm a boy. Romance ain't my thing.
2. The Harry Potter books are amazing and the movies are equally fascinating. Not many movies based off books are great.
3. Action, magic, VOLDEMORT! *shot-shot-shot*

Twilight has an odd story line, incredibly strange occurances and is just bad. Harry potter at least has some good concepts

Harry Potter because the books were a joy to read and the movies were exciting to watch.

Kyoits

Harry Potter is only better because it doesn't have some dumb *** story or characters. The story is good because it mainly sticks to one villain and doesn't have the same thing in every movie. The characters are just better hands down there is no need for explaining on that one. It's not that twilight is bad but it gets way to much attention.

There wasn't that many votes for Twilight. There aren't even that many people here, I think. A specific mod *coughRedcough* threw it over.
