I'm not so sure about that myself because what I've seen on Facebook, it's the other way around (by that I meant Twihards bashing/trolling Potterheads pages). Not to be bias, but maybe those Twihards envy Potter's popularity in all ages (since Twilight isn't suitable for kids). Honestly, I truly dislike Twilight, but I don't think it's a horrible book. Just not my cup of tea.

I think twilight fans bash hp fans so in return we bash them back...only HP is obviously waaaaay more awesome so there isn't even a comparison!

To be honest, I've only seen the Harry Potter side of things, so I'm not really sure, but it certainly is an interesting question...

Yup, I think that yes, HP fans do bash twilight more than vice-versa.. But then maybe just because I'm one of those bashers too! And I totally think that its fair HP is the best! |

I think they bash each other. I'm not a twilight fan at all! I think its just pointless and if you are looking for a love story that it one for you, but really its unatural to me and so not real. I have seen each twilight movie, and got very bored, they should have just stop at the the first movie and book. I seriously can't pick up a Twilight saga book and read 20 pages of it. I've tried with each one and never could continue. The authur to me just didn't write them good at all!
Sadly I've been in both boats where I hated Harry Potter when I was younger, loved Twilight. Now I'm total opposite. In Harry Potter I see a point to the story. Like its showing its about a boy wizard who had the wizarding world hidden from him and here he goes on kinda on a adventure to save the wizarding world and defeat Voldemort. In Twlight what do I see? A girl that moves out of her moms and to Washington, goes to school like a normal teen and meets a guy. All seems normal tell she learns he is a vampire. Thats all fine, it just gets a little carried away and has no plot or storyline to me after that. I'm not trying to be like a hater or anything, but I think people have gone a little over the top with Twilight. I had to get that out..

I once read the most funny thing ever. It was this person on Yahoo Questions saying something like... JK Rowling is CLEARLY copying Meyers, because she had a character called Sirius Black who was a Werewolf, HOW dare she copy Jacob Black who was a werewolf  it made me laugh on so many different levels!
I think the books are written at such an amateur level and have absolutely no thought factor which is why people love them so much. Harry Potter has SO many characters, plots, second, third, fourth, fifth, hundred different sub-plots, such amazing character development, history development, twists etc. which Twilight clearly lacks. It's quite superficial I think, so when HP fans bash Twilight it's probably because there is clearly no comparison of the two. Whereas when Twilight fans bash HP it's because they wish their books were as good as HP
Nah, it's a nice change having a series of books that is so easy to read and understand. But I much prefer the complexities of Harry Potter.

Yeah.. I mean, HP has so many twists, each with you can say, a moral, representing the truth and right. And all that Twilight teaches is to be head over heels in love and leave everything! Whereas in HP, love has been described as being the biggest strength, which has the power to suppress evil too. Hehe hehe I know, I am kind of bashing Twilight, but then thats the truth.
And as Jessiqua said: Quote:

I don't think that HP bash Twilight and vice-versa. Because even if the books are about an imaginary world or characters, the histories are totally different, we cannot compare. It's possible to like both it's just a question of feelings.
