Re: Media with a big Show vs Tell disparity?

Twilight.

Bella is clumsy! > only when it's convenient
Bella is selfless! > only so she can complain about it
Bella is in love! > only wants Edward so he can turn her

Not even scratching the surface of all the contradictions in those books. Uhg.

Yes, this is why I never could get into Twilight. We're told over and over about how selfless Bella is, and especially about how she's the responsible one, the caretaker, the grown-up, in her relationship with Renee. But she's so busy feeling sorry for herself and condescending to the whole of Forks--even though everybody but the Cullens has bent over backwards to be nice to her--that for forty-eight hours after she arrives, she forgets to so much as call her mom or email her to say she arrived safely. Seriously, who even does that?
