MilkmanDansays...Although I miss the target demographic for Twilight by about 10+ years and 1 penis, I somewhat enjoyed the books, and the movie was an OK adaptation.
This, however, was so fantastic that I am now going to have to look up more from rifftrax -- thanks for the link Rosekat!
EDDsays...The best article on the Twilight franchise that I've read: http://bit.ly/4X8Tpr (Escapist)
Paybacksays..."Is this where you were going?"
MilkmanDansays...To me, every vampire fiction universe has some flaws that keep it from being ideal to my tastes, although I do enjoy at least parts of all of them. For example:
Buffy - I don't like the idea that vampires (with a few exceptions) are inherently evil because they don't have a soul. That cheapens them and turns them into guilt-free cannon fodder. Vampires should be generally evil because they have power, and have had time to be corrupted by losing their (potentially limited) human reluctance to abusing power.
Anne Rice - Look, the occasional person is actually firmly heterosexual, and no amount of time spent being undead would chip away at their inhibitions to reveal a raging omnisexual being within. Not that there's anything wrong with that. In addition, while the series starts out well with old vampires that know nothing of any god and have 'never learned any secret that would save or damn their soul', the later books are shroud of turin, god and devil obsessed dreck.
Blade (based on movies not comics) - Blade's origin doesn't seem so unique that he would be the only 'daywalker'. I also don't really like silver as a weakness for vamps -- one silver bullet grazes an arm and they are dusted? Also, 'born' vampires and vampires that can age annoy me.
Twilight - The whole weakness to sunlight thing comes down to vampires being sparkly in the sun? ...Right. In addition, Edward requires massive fortitude to resist the temptation of eating Bella if she draws blood from a tiny scratch, but there is no mention made of him having to avoid her for ... ahem ... several days a month.
Vampire the Masquerade (based on PC games) - Although I am an atheist and personally dislike Rice's later books due to overly strident religious references, the treatment of Cain of Cain/Abel as the original vampire, and his 13 fledgling vampires as the founders of 13 'clans' with different traits in VTM is quite cool. A negative is that I can't actually imagine that the masquerade-enforcing Camarilla would be able to completely keep vampires off of the human radar with anarchy loving Sabaat around. Plus stake to the heart = paralysis makes no sense.
But since we're talking fiction, there is some suspension of disbelief required anyway, so all of these flaws don't necessarily ruin the final product for me.
Anyway, sorry for the off-topic (sort of) ramblings.
