Questions Relating “Twilight as a Cultural Force”

When I read the article “Twilight as a Cultural Force” I was really surprised by the amount of cultural awareness and thought that went into Twilight as a movie. It really got me thinking “How many other books or movies have had similar situations about portraying a culture?” I am very interested in finding out this because I had not known this occurred or even was a topic of discussion for filming Twilight.
