The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, 2010

Bella Swan is eighteen. She has a nightmare and tells her undead literally and totally dead emotionally boyfriend that she is terrified because she is getting so old. Edward than decides that to save her from his blood hungry siblings who go into a feeding frenzy when she gets a paper cut* he must abandon her in a forest at night. Bella goes into a comatose state for months without her boyfriend, there is literally no meaning in her life without her boyfriend of what- nine months? The only way she can sooth her pain is by putting herself into horribly life threatening situations. The ending has both romantic leads painting suicide in a romantic light. *This is hardly a big issue but this is a massive plot hole. The Cullens go to school. Are we to believe that in the 80+ years they've interacted with humans in "normal" settings they have never had a classmate get a paper cut in the same room as them? Or fall down and skin their knee? Or hell, pick a scab out of sheer boredom? Yeah, hi paper thin plot device! You sure are making yourself at home in this franchise, aren't you? Bottom Line: If you have a daughter and you care at all about the way she views herself and boys in this world so obsessed over the superficial- you don't have to bar her from seeing it. But make sure you talk to her at least about what she should expect and deserve to be treated by people.
