“His steel arms locked around me”

“I felt his cold lips on mine”

“he then whispered, ‘ I will love you till the last second of forever.’”

YES! very sick of it! why? becuase its unrealistic. And im 12.reading these books with these “perfect” boyfriends is horrible, becausing young girls are reading it and totally getting the wrong idea! And if i do say so myself the female charecters are often very weak. Take Bella for an example. Edward leaves, and she can’t cope. Young girls reading this thinks this is how it should be, so when their boyfriend breaks up with them they act as if they need that person. And I am very upset over it. People need to get realisitic. Want a good romance movie, girls?

Watch the Notebook.

Yep. Getting fed up. Teen girls are obnoxious. Everything vampire happening at once was definitely a terrible thing for 2009. Like Brandon, I hope that it all dies quickly. Perhaps by the middle of 2010? Or earlier if your gracious, God?

I hope Brandon is right. I’ve never been into vampire movies, novels, any of that stuff. It’s all so boring and unoriginal. But hopefully once everyone has had their fill of vampire, the fad will die off. I pray it doesn’t turn into another zombie/superhero fad (both of which have YET to fall completely by the way side)

Im glad the whole vampire theme has been oversaturated, that means its going to die off sooner. Everyone knows as soon as something reaches its peak popularity, it will suddenly take a huge dive because people who were so obsessed with the trend will get bored with it. If they had spaced out the movies and shows, i think it will have lasted a lot longer. My niece was sickeningly obsessed with that emo blockbuster cry for help “twilight” and she ate up anything and everything ‘vampire’, now she is showing signs of getting sick of vampires and i couldnt be happier, if i had to sit thru one more movie about whiny ass emo love thirsty night freaks i think i would end up burning any post-”30 days of night’ vampire flick i could get my hands on.

I think that those of us who are sick of vampires need a support group. or a section in the library and bookstore, ya know, like the section will be called “These are NOT about vampires!” Lol. But hey, read my blog.

To be fair though, Twilight did suck, but The Vampire Diaries what-cha-ma-call-it looks like how they should have done twilight. I wish that it had come out before twilight. I get the feeling though that werewolves are being left out. lol. All that I ask is that every good looking teen on tv not be a vampire. Is that too much?

I seem to remember some zombie romanticism in Return of the Living Dead III (1993).

We deffinately owe the success of the sudden inflation of the allure of vampires to twilight. But it’s like you said, they have always been around, we just diddn’t notice it till now. Love it or hate it, there is a major cash crop to be had out there for em, so untill the popularity disdaines it will keep on keepin on.

I agree with D. I hate the twilight vampires. By all means be alluring, be smart, be cunning, and full of whit. just because your a vampire doesn’t mean your a bummbling idiot. but don’t be this emo worthless self loathing, piece of shit that goes sparkle sparkle in the sun.

I love vampires, but I am gettin tired of romanticized vampires and not enough blood sucking fiends.Modern vampires are shown as undead yuppies that need to be on some type of mood medication.

I prefer my vampires psychotic animals that can’t form sentences like 30 days of Night or vicious and rabid like Dusk till Dawn. I screenwrite and currently I’m writing an alternative to Twilight, so I think that the people in Hollywood run plots into the ground to death. I hear people talk about how vampires are sexy and live forever, well yeah but there still murders who need blood to survive.

I think vampires won’t end because of their intrigue but PLEASE stop with the SPARKLE GLITTER YUPPIE EMO ZOLOFT DEPRESSED HOMOEROTIC vampires for awhile. Vampires need to be more like Santanica from dusk and less Cullen from Twilight.

There losing there rep…..

Re: Nick D “The only vampire movie I ever saw was Dusk Till Dawn…”

You should check out “Vamp”, an eighties flick that has a similar vibe – ie, action and humor and seriously mean vampires. Plus it stars Grace Jones and it’s set in a strip joint!

I haven’t seen Twilight so can’t comment on that. As for the glut of Vamp movies, it’s nothing new. One good film in a particular genre usually greases the wheels of the band wagon that inevitably follows. This can be a good thing and a bad thing, I guess it just depends on the quality of the output.

As to vampire movies….i had read the Darren Shan books, dont know if anyone is familiar with them but they were a lot of fun. I know that there was a movie in the works…even read a story on it in Empire and also some pictures from the movie. However, it seems to have stopped production or just gone down the drain – havent heard anything about it in a while, which is surprising. It would be a perfet time to release it since everyone is vampire crazy now. Anyone know whats happening with this movie?
