>felt as though it was catered towards a younger audience

My daughter loved it. I suspect the younger viewers are making up a large portion of the numbers. I watched it with my daughter I thought there were some great parts but it was clearly going for the harry potter demo.

Don't drag Harry Potter into this, those are timeless classics for all ages. I'd say the Twilight demographic is more accurate

Yeah I have no idea how I feel about that comment, it's needlessly antagonistic, but the first two films were aimed at kids a bit (just like the books were meant to grow with the kids reading them) but they are genuinely enjoyable films for all ages. (Whatever the writer who shall not be named is up to the books and films still are what they are and pretty good)

Twilight was purpose built for that tween/teen reader/viewer and I don't think there's anything wrong with that teens think different and want to put themselves in these stories and explore the world that way.
