For my second assessment task, I chose two belonging texts for which I got (for my textforms&essay):

Simple Gift 15/15
Twilight 13.5/15
Gossip Girl: The Blair Bitch Project 14/15

Anyways for the HSC, as you know we only require 2 of our own text, I'm thinking of instead of doing Twilight and Gossip Girl I'd do:

Thirteen (Movie)
Watchmen (Graphic Novel)

What's your opinion on this?

It doesn't matter what texts you do, its whether you analyze/compare with core text well. I have a friend who has found a High band 6 essay (20/20) which had "Mean Girls" as a related text. Gossip Girl is great btw.

There is no need to change texts if you've gone so well in them already. It would just mean more work for you and more risk. I think you should choose 2 out of those 3(whichever you feel most comfortable with).
Lol watchmen would be awesome for change, it even has songs about change in the soundtrack aswell.
